I've seen plenty of toxic fans from all fandoms, male or female. The common denominator to me is that these people live for their groups and idols, and have basically little else, so when their "faves" are threatened in any way, they protect them like their lives depend on it, because in a way, it does.

Yup, best thing Kpop has ever produced.

Being an anti is literally being obsessed with something you hate, and spending as much time as you can bashing said thing. Imagine wasting all that time and energy. Could never be me.
But that's the kpop community, for as many people that there are who love their groups/idols and their music, there's probably more who's only goal is to bash, create drama and hate and get a rise out of people while being safe behind a screens.

I've never really understood the point of constructive criticism when it relates to someone who you have no contact or interaction with, all it does is create the environment that we have which is people feeling perfectly fine to disguise their their unneeded, unasked for, and unnecessary opinions under the mask of "constructive criticism".
No sane person makes time for things they don't like, if I don't like something, I don't partake in it, I certainly don't go out of my way to offer my opinion, or to seek it out, there are so many more important things in life to devote your time to, things that require our attention and our effort, and here we have a whole community, perched, waiting on people's mistakes, or inadequacies so they can cowardly cry about them while safely behind their screens. Pathetic.

Elite artists working and performing together. We love to see it

Happy to hear that they'll continue making music as a group.

I have a friend of mine who is over 30 yrs old, never had a girlfriend in his life. He started to listen to Kpop a few years ago. Mainly because of the music, but also the sense of creating his own fairy tale that the girl groups he stanned where his dream girlfriends. It may sound creepy, but I think for him it's good to have a sense of feeling that somebody is there for him even though the girls are way younger than my friend. The matter of fact is he's been struggling finding a girlfriend for years and where we live, people are very judgemental and superficial. So that something like Kpop exist or the idol culture in general is a good thing. Can call it a therapy for many single and lonely men in my opinion.
To me, this is incredibly unhealthy, it's literally delusion. If you are his friend, I would advise you to help them to become more confident, to pursue things that will make them feel better about themselves and give them a sense of fulfillment. When your friend starts believing in himself and having interests in his life aside from finding a girlfriend, that's when the girls will take notice of him.

In my opinion, if the company or the couple themselves confirm it, it gives the impression that confirming their relationship is something they have to do, as if they owe the fans an explanation. They don't.
-
I have no feeling other then if it's true, then good for them, because after being exposed to the kpop community for a bit, I can honestly say that I don't think anyone else besides another idol could provide the understanding, support and comfort that is required to maintain a relationship in the toxic, ridiculous, delusional and chaotic environment that is kpop.

I rarely post here anymore, but I did want to chime in because I feel threads like these, and the whole idea about what mods should do and what is admissible in a forum has been in need of scrutiny for many years already.
Truth is, the idea here has always been, at least for those in positions of authority in this forum to enable traffic, and the best way has always been to sow discord. I think it's fairly simple to know what is or isn't something that should be said in a discussion, I mean, I know there's many people here who have very little interaction with people in the real world, but we all know that 98 percent of what's said here in the heat of the moment, would never be uttered in real life.
There was a user who mentioned in this thread about there being no repercussion to saying mean, hurtful things to others, and that's where I believe the mods come in, to truly moderate and make this place a safe space for everyone, you have to stop allowing bashing, hate mongering and bullying to happen under the guise of freedom of speech. There's many who argue that criticism should be allowed, but tell me, what value does saying a singer can't sing?, what constructive purpose does it serve? What is the goal aside from trying to rile up that artist's fans?
Ultimately, I feel it's the kpop culture that is the issue, some kpop fans feel that bashing is a part of the community while others do not, and that's why I think there are varying views on the topic, from all parties involved, including the mods. Personally, as a non stan, it's easy to see who is here for discussion and who is here to get off on judging, hating and bashing. I'd personally get rid of those people ASAP.

I didn't read this whole thread, because, you know, I have a life. But I did want to say that I don't think this girl is a neo nazi, or a curb stomping skin head as some are making her out to be, it's just a girl who wore a tshirt, probably because she thought it looked cool.
The fact that so many are indignant, and are looking for blood, or for this girl to be I don't know, exiled, is the most normalized and disgusting thing about kpop and it's fandoms. I gotta believe there are better things to do with your time then persecute/bash/villify someone over a fucking tshirt.
