Should k-pop idols be allowed to date ?
Twice: Yes or Yes ?
Luciana P. BTS and CLC: NO
Yes idols should have rights to date!
Yes they have to .
nice
Yesss
*"I'd feel like something that's mine was taken"*
sis that's not healthy
loli Truth.
But its true
Jeez, whoever said that needs to see a shrink asap!!
@@ryeherrera7485 Where are you from? You know that Korean society is conservative... btw. You don't have rights to instruct native Koreans how to treat Kpop

Those three dudes remind me of those side characters in a drama that everyone loves and wish they had more screen time
STAN DREAMCATCHER That is true. lol
Like in the drama “ drinking solo”
i was about to comment the same thing 😂
True lololo
I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING OMGG😹
The three men looked like they were just messing around and playing, but their answers actually make a lot of sense 🤙🏻
They were in the mid of chilling out 🌚🌚😂😂... But seriously they are so true!!
Yap I also do agree with them
Yep, It is all about the fantasy for girls who don't want the idols to date. They think of the male or female idol as " theirs' and will marry them. It is very extreme for some, where they turn their back on these idols if they do date. That is a very lonely life for these idols however long they stay an idol.
True
@@patrice942 that’s so weird like I had a huge crush on Kai, read a lot of fanfics about him, so I would be what you would call a delulu for Kai but I still supported his relationship with Jennie 😂 jenkai actually turned me into a blink. I mean.. I was in love with Kai but I know that I only have 0,01% chance to get him, so who cares if he’s dating someone else if he’s not going to date me anyway. Do these fake fans truly think they would be married with their bia if he wasn’t with another person?
the three dudes that were drinking coffee are legit bosses lol
they're the best. i totally wanna be friends with them.
Absolute real G's if I've ever seen any.
Like a boss hahaha
TRUE they spilling the tea while drinking coffee
I know I'm the only one laughing pls let me laugh about my own jokes thx 😂
Damn right!
“since a pretty girl and a handsome guy are dating, they get an inferiority complex because they’re jealous” “they’re jealous” “they’re jealous”
SAY IT LOUDER FOR PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!! i love these three dorks

The only people who are mad are the young korean immature fangirls who think they own their fav oppars
Moonyoung_00 that is true
Nah not just them and sexist men who think there female idol should only worship them
No not only ‘young’ little girls but also a lot of women in their twenties or 17-18-19 year olds. Not all young ‘fangirls’ are immature or obsessed with their idols.
generally speaking, yes, there people who are obsessed, age group doesnt matter at all bcs some ppl do think like a child regardless their age lol

Does she own the idol. WTF she likes the idol because of his looks and talent.

"it's the right reason to fire them", "i'd feel like something that's mine was taken" people like them are ruining idols life, if they are saying it on camera i'm afraid what they are posting on social networks
@not really gelo; IMO, just my opinion don't attack me. In the first place, the contract itself is very wrong. "Not Allow TO Date in the first 3 years". You know having someone that you love boost your confidence and commitment to your work. Of course, you can take your family as the reason why you work hard but having some like BF and GF double the effort and strong mentality.
I was LITERALLY in disbelief when she said "it was the right reason to fire them", um EXCUSE ME?? I-
@@pinkcherry9695 SAME I WAS LIKE TF SHE SAY?

Your Neighbor Amos Agreed! When a persons free will is being held by another human being, it’s disheartening
@@hannahcruz6753 Agencies sell the oppa/noona image. So its easy for you to sit here and say that. But agencies need to make money from the very small korean music market so the few fans that they have are motivated to bulk buy albums if the oppa/noona image is sold to them.
America has 300M people, thats enough people for each artist to have fans....but korea has 50M people...not all of them listen to idol music so idols fight for recognition from very few people. So agencies sell that image to get CF deals, album sales and fansigns. Idol business is real cut throat competition. Its more complicated than you think. Dating idols have less value and fans arent motivated to bulk buy anything from them. The best they can sale is maybe 10k or 20K copies. No CF deals for dating idols.
Married idols are irrelevant because idol business is about the fantasy. UKISS member, crayon pop member, suju member, HOT member are all irrelevant after they got married. Asian culture would find it strange to ask a married idol to thrust their crotch at a fansign or to do fanservice because they are married. Remember that fanservice is what motivates fans to bulk buy albums and merch. If an idol is dating, they make less sales... that means they take a longer time to pay back their trainee fees...so they never leave that agency till they pay back.
International fans dont contribute anything financially to the korean agencies so agencies cater to the korean fabs who make them the money so looking at it from an international fan's perspecrive will just frustrate you because cultures are different and the music business is done differently there
That One Button on Kookie's Shirt That Didnt Pop I 100% agree with everything you said because that’s the truth and it is a cultural thing because it also contributes to South Korea’s economy and it’s a big industry and all the things you said are statistically correct in terms of business however, my point is that it’s wrong. No matter what angle you look at it a person and their image is not something you can ‘sell’ no one has that right. I mean if fame is what they are after then that’s fair enough you have to do what you have to do right? To live out that dream but I merely said that it’s disheartening when your free will is put in someone else’s hands which is basically what you said saying that their image is sold so yes, it is easy for me to sit here and say that because one, it’s my free will and two it’s basically that. I wasn’t talking about business and whatnot, I’m just saying I feel for the artists
@Alyssa Truscott That's a different situation; big bang is an already established group and like every YG group they don't really have a hardcore dedicated fandom as they're always aim for general-public and casual fans (just look at their album sales and compare them to groups from SM or JYP or even Pledis).
Basically older idols, married ones or the ones who have kids are basically out of the market and aren't as profitable as young single ones.
@@hannahcruz6753 Companies have the right to sell an image cause as soon as they sign up with the company they basically lose every right over themselves. You can look at videos or interviews from ex SM trainees and see them talk about how their contract said that they basically owned them and they had no say in anything they wanted to do with them as having plastic surgeries, weight and anything related to physical appearance. Also this other trainee talked about how they were given a PERSONALITY (literally). And there are many cases like that. Basically they create this perfect manufactured group who sells dreams and fanstasies to fans and if fans like it they just 'buy' it. And that happens every where not just in the Korea. When one direction was formed they also had an image they sold, every member had a certain "image", the 'misterous' one, the 'funny' one and as every new artist their management tries to keep that clean image for the first year or so then when they are already established they can do whatever they want. Same thing happens with the Disney kids, they have to keep up with a clean image while they belong to Disney or they will be kicked out. In K-pop fandom cult is extreme so their taking care about their image thing is also that extreme.
I don’t understand how kpop idols are supposed to sing about love but they aren’t allowed to be in love??
Amna Ajaib 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏yes
+Amna Ajaib Because they're manufactured and fake.
They don't even write the songs lol. It's stupid. How are you meant to 'feel' the song if you don't even write it.
Ikr!!
So all those emotions on their songs is fake. Lol.
It's all fakeu love😂
I feel so bad for these idols, this clearly shows how most of their Korean fans aren't in it for the music or their talents.
Edit : Okay so since some of y'all are getting offended for no reason or apparently don't seem to get what I'm saying.
Never Have I said that Koreans are the only ones like that, obviously there are countless of "crazy possessive" fans of other fandoms in the world, Western artists sure have a lot of problematic supporters as well and a lot of international kpop fans are delusional and insane too ! But that's just not my point. All I'm saying is dating wise, Korea is one of the few countries where majority of the fanbase are not happy when the idols get into romantic relationship and make a scandal around it, whereas generally in other countries, celebrities dating results in a celebration, like it will be mostly positive THUS my comment.
In conclusion I don't get why y'all feel the need to correct me when that's simply an observation of what's happening
Anyone notice the korean fans are the crazy ones😬😬😬

@@nonono7149 I am telling you ,I don't know if you know or not BTS members has said they will be in relationship when they are 30-35 age
@@nonono7149 You made a good argument supported by valid and sound premises, if they willingly chose to pursue a career in being an idol, they must understand the implications of being an idol, if not, they should choose a performance artist's career instead, as they have no obligations to stay single.
Unfortunately, the viewers of this channel are indeed mostly foreigners who do not have good understanding of the background of many of the videos Asian Boss makes, not just the Korean videos but all the other ones as well.
i know a lot of koreans invited/scouted to be an idol but instead chose to be a kpop artists that are pursuing on TH-cam as they don't like the system of *idols* naming a few is Hwang Myung Hun(Big Marvel), Jun Sung Ahn (JunCurryAhn), Lee Young Suk (Dragon Stone), etc.

I like the three guys with the drinks. They seem to be real people with a grip of life. They seem to know how the world works. We need more people like them. Everything they said was completely right.
except they don't own kpop agencies. They are great guys, but they're not the ones investing real $$ into producing kpop idols. I mean, you think JYP and Lee Soo man are idiots? there are good reasons why they prohibit dating. For one thing, it's bad for business. Yes, love is not a crime, but it's bad for business. The three guys are innocent but also naive into how the industry operates.

Apparently the entertainment industry is not promoting idols for their talents, but for their body, because the fans don't see them as artists but as a toy, and it's funny how Idols can't have a love life, but you can, like you don't have a boyfriend so the idol belongs to you ,but the moment you date someone you forget about them, that's why the oldest groups have more freedom.
They call them idol not artist , that explains a lot
find your way to america......................dear artists....come to freedom lol
What I keep saying.. Kpop idols especially are barely getting promoted for their talent anymore, its all about their looks nowadays
@Anon Artist they want to be real artists but their agency took it away from them at a young age
I'm sorry this is a bit off topic, but when you say *toy* , I instantly remember the song "Toy" by BLOCK B and it's pretty representative of fans of these idols imo
"something that's mine was taken" they were never yours in the first place. fans need to stop thinking like this. they're a fan, nothing more.

@@amala647 They owe you NOTHING they don't need to tell ANYONE about their private life. Just because they are idols doesn't mean they have to give up every basic human right just because some of you are entitled and deluted
@@amala647 are you there for their work and talent or for whatever they do in their life?
@@amala647 I agree only with the first half of your sentence. There are people that believe in what the idol says, it's more about how they try to manipulate the most basic statements such as "I love you" that the idols say to fit their narrative and fantasies.
And this kind of behavior is usually observed in teens that don't have much idea about the real dating world and are free enough to obsess over them.
Other stans that are living in the real world dont have time to microanalyse statements made by their idols, because they have jobs to do and bills to pay. Lolm

@hansalam한사람 Well maybe you are stupid for thinking it's your right to have a saying in other people's private lives, because you don't, whether you're a fan or not. Just because "the structures" have always been like that doesn't mean they are right.
And you can literally see a lot of the people in this interview thinking hard about their answer and struggling to find reasons to support their opinion, because they never _thought_ about it rather than blindly following what everybody does or thinks.
Waouh I was looking for this comment before writing it,lol! I'd love to meet then and hang out with them when I go (I hope in the near future) to Korea hahahaha!
I’d slap the girl who said it was right to fire Hyuna and Edawn
ikrr
@hansalam한사람 Lmao just stop, its because of the "foreigners" that your idols can get fanbases internationally and make it to the us market that all your company oppas are fighting for? 😶😶
the girls who said they deserved to be fired are probably the same ones saying they were gonna marry Edawn KSJSJ when will Koreans realize that you have like NO chance dating your favorite idol NONE
Exactly. Theey sound jealous, like those guys said.
I think she means that the way they went against the company was the thing that made a right thing to fired them, I mean I would think like that if I am in a company, bc you will be like a liar, but yes, it's not right that they didn't talk with them before telling to reporters about they being fired
Sorry my English and I hope both of them find a new and better company!
Onion well some people do have their chances..it is pretty nice to believe and hope for something to happen, just don't bring others hopes down because you don't got a chance.
there's like a 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance 💀SKSKSKSKSKSKSSS
starKeisha xD everyone has different chances:) oh and good luck with that 1%. Hope it will raise up, believe me, dreams will come true if you keep trying:)

*LOVE IS NOT A CRIME*
Love ain't a crime but since their careers are based on fanservice and image, it is.
Of course it's not a crime. But their jobs consist of selling their image to fans, so if they revealed to the world that they were dating, fans also have the right to stop buying their stuff and become fan from another idol they like
@@samalheid6630 perfectly explained
I understand all of this and to be honest I think that it’s companies fault. They can sell all the stuff but they also make their idols too exposed to fans so they become fans property which is the saddest part. But they knew what they were gotten into and because of that I feel bad for them cause everyone deserve happiness.
u had 666 likes and im the 667th. Lmao
If you don't want an idol to date, you simply do not love and respect him/her. They are not your toy. They are not your boyfriend/girlfriend. Your fantasies are not more important than their happiness.

It ruins the fantasy, yes but that’s something you have to get over.
If you really loved them you would love the people who make them happy.
I’m not trying to offend anyone at all but like seriously, the kpop industry is so toxic and the measures these agencies have to take. Like fans are so easily butthurt and sensitive to this stuff and the fact that fans actually turn on their idols and the agency just because they start dating is so wrong. Kpop idols are humans too
Mckenzie Wannahwilai bUt hEs mY oPpA! He is miNE! And should NOT be allowed to date other people because during his vlive 3 weeks ago he read my comment that said I love you and he said it back! He is MiNE! (Lmao)
But seriously. People forget they are humans and not objects. They already basically starve themselves, and work so hard just to get people to like them. Fans control their whole lives, they should at least get to do a little bit for themselves :(
the k-pop indsutry is one hell of a vicious circle of obsession and exploitation for money. But their system is what make them what they are right now and asking them to change it is like asking them to start from zero. And it's also based on their culture values so
Honestly tho most of them are from Korea. Int fans are chill about it but if you look at the Korean teens they all say that they feel “betrayed” 🙄

Yesss
They're very entertaining and i love their funny commentary
I'm actually genuinely concerned for the idols future, when will they get married then?
Ya right!
some do, some don't. iirc Taeyang from Big Bang broke boundaries by being a successful Kpop idol despite being married. Several members from U-Kiss also did get married as well, though one got divorced. In the end, the true fans stay and the delulu ones leave anyway.
My opinion is that they should move out, it'll be way too toxic there but they'll have to leave their friends and families .
I'm sorry if there are any grammatical mistakes, English isn't my first language -_-||
@NUR FATIHA according to me 35- 40 years is not the age of marriage , if they want they can marry anytime, the idols, stars are forced to marry and date so late , its not like they wanna get married do late. hope idols marry whenever , whomever they want and dont care about obsessive idiotic so called fans
@@bhavanam7572 or they can date in secret lol it's not necessary to make your relationship publicly
I've been studying a lot about this topic for my behavior article and I think the reason why kpop fans treat idols differently than they treat western artists is because the industry doesn't just sell music, they sell people, lifestyles, it's like they're selling you a friend or something like that, they are filmed 24/7 and when there are no company cameras in their face they have the fan cameras who analyze each step of the idols. Because they have access to almost everything about them they end up thinking that they have power over them, they create a very strong emotional bond and that is not healthy, it is actually worrying because when a person that obsessed suffers a disappointment it almost become a betrayal like if their bf/gf has cheated on them and you never know what kind of crazy thing this person could do.
Seems like the Korean entertainment industry promotes a very unhealthy relationship between the K-pop idols and their fans.
Fan worship is neither healthy for the performers nor for the fans. It's okay to appreciate someones music and performance. But when you worship a performer like some kind of god or run around feeling entitled to their private life it causes a very warped perception of normal social boundaries.
The best comment o this. 👏👏👏👏

Yeah, you're right. They sort of make it seem like the kpop groups are your actual boyfriend or girlfriend. So it does indeed turn unhealthy, because lots of people fall into this illusion.
1:52 its very sad of what the girl said. "It feels like something of mine was taken away", he/she is not yours.
That’s true but you’d kinda feel sad like, idk how to explain it 😂
@@yuni_strawberi you feel sad cos you're not with them(?) but you ship it^^
Don't take it seriously. If she really thinks so she would be a stalker.
*She didn't took it seriously*
I was like: what do you mean "taken away" when he isn't yours in the first place -.- if the idol "belongs" to anyone it will be his/her parents/family/maybe group mates lol
one of the girls said that she wishes the idols could be honest from the start. But there is a reason they don’t do that. Let’s say the couple breaks up. If they’d already informed each fan base and everyone knew they were dating, maybe everyone was even happy for them, too. But one day they break up. Although breakups are completely natural and happen all the time, because these people are so idolized and famous, the media would blow it way out of proportion. (same in american media) that’s why, if they’re even gonna say anything at all, they’ll wait until they’re fully secure in their relationship.
Exactly, that’s what happened to Miley and Liam, the media blew it out of proportion when they first had broken up; if they did this in Korea (announcing every single relationship of idols and artists) they would blow it up and make a huge mess. Conclusion, if the artists want to announce it, fans should be supportive, if they don’t want to announce it, get over it if they don’t, it’s their privacy
This is so basic but still some people need to understand this
Seriously some fans really suck their idols as hell..,like how they could say about being honest from starting..?,they don't understand a small fact that idols are also humans and to everyone it takes time to know about a person ..,a person confess when they fill a bit of attraction but they first date each other to better about each one and then make decision that if they finally can make up together ...,like seriously they want them to be honest so do they r ready to listen to statement of their idols that guys we r in realtionship and after sometimes they will say tahtbguys we broke up cause we wouldn't able to make it longer...
Exactly some fans need to get over themselves, these idols don’t have to explain just because they love their oppa.
Aight, we all stanning the three guys with their tEa-
Absolutely
The answer is YES they should be able to date without people freaking out
Edit: @/heyitsrosie stop being a hypocrite and understand people have opinions. I said they SHOULD be able to date without people freaking out. They SHOULD be able to. Its something that SHOULD happen but sadly the industry over there doesn't work that way. Stop complaining about people complaining when you are as well LMAO
O N C E upon a T W I C E that’s your opinion

Yep cx💕

They decided to be idols in the wrong industry then.
Tbh people need to learn to just respect others so this wouldn't be an issue but :(
“I even thought of marrying you. Ohhh!”Those guys should make a TH-cam channel. You’ve got a fan right here! 😂😂😂
Hahaha my life is screaming ,hahaha my wig even started to dance cus of that
Yeah their replies were actually so true 😂😂😂 and that make me laugh hard specially on break of fantasy 😂😂
same HAHAHHAHA i love em
Same here
its hilarious, but I'm pretty sure it's a parody of Wheesung's song >w
3:48 “For the fans, the fantasy goes away”
Totally agree. No one could have said it better😌
I like the three amigos being interviewed! They're so realistic and they tell the truth, even if they were laughing the entire time.
Raise your hand if you want to ask the CEO of every entertainment that banned dating this question
“Is LOVING a CRIME? Do having a RELATIONSHIP with SOMEONE is a CRIME?”
I really want to ask this question to YG Sajangnim.
👍
@Salsa Bila its a gr8 question western idols can date because their companies don't try to control their lives as much
Are u korean
vishnh karthi are you asking that because they put sajangnim at the end, lol if so I’m wondering the same thing
@@loverwons yep
I think K-pop idols should be able to date whoever they want since it is their life.
The same goes with whoever they want to marry (if you know what i mean)
Same
True,it's their own life and they are not robot/machine to dictate what we want them to do! They are human too like us who wants to be love and be loved!
Yup we saying that... But some koreans disagree.... That. Like girls said. They will said "I like him why he can't love me back why he love someone else? . He cheated me like that.... We are I_FANS CAN TAKE THE DATE NEWS IN EASY WAY AND BE HAPPY FOR THEM BUT NOT KOREAN FANS ARE MORE SELFISH. AND IMMATURES SERIOUSLY....WE ARE ALL HUMANS.. IT'S REALLY HARD TO BE A FAMOUS..... ( T ʖ̯ T)
Won't happen cause they're slaves to their talent agency.
They're saying that " k-pop idols are different from us "
How can you say that ? They have eyes , nose , hands ,legs especially emotion as we have . They're humans too !
6:36 the hell j-pop idols have to shave their head if they are caught dating. is that really true???
There's one case on akb48 members (i forgot her name), because in akb48 there's a golden rule and one of the rule is the member is forbidden to date anyone when they're still in the akb48 group. So, she apologized to the fans by shaving her hair. That's all i know about that case.
@@zahrowardah3401 yooo that is so effed up. I can never imagine shaving my head bald especially when I have long hair
I was like : "Is she joking? She can't be serious!"
I just love those 3 dudes their so relatable and funny 😂😂😂😂
@hansalam한사람 btw those 3 guy's response was the most sane one. Any sane and balanced can recognise the sanity!!! You seems to be unbalanced person. Please go get some treatment with a shrink!!!
Gloria Shivoro love them, it’s true, some fans are scary, obsessed with their Idol,
i just ruined your 666 likes
Yeah, I think they should be allowed to date. They're most likely already dating behind the scenes anyway. Besides, who are we to decide what they do with their love life? Fans should know that when idols compliment them, it's just a way to show appreciation (or sometimes a fanservice). Let's say when Justin Bieber (dunno why I'm using him as an example lol) tells his fans: "I love you guys so much!" we understand that it doesn't mean he's _in love_ with his fans. It just means he's thankful for all the support they have given him.
It's all right to fantasize about things, just don't get it mixed up with reality.
Excellent points! Say it louder so all the knetz hear it: "It's all right to fantasize about things, just don't get it mixed up with reality."
Too bad many of the people in this world doesn't wanna live in reality
Exactly! It actually makes me angry... That people can feel decieved and betrayed by someone else falling in love, you may be a big fan and all, but you gotta remember they are humans and well, with a heart. Everyone needs love.
I love your vids 💜
SO TRUE! as mentioned if I could just meet all the idols I would tel them to date whoever they want.. who the hell are we to stop them from doing that? Can we just support them all the way and whatever makes them happy and inspired?
1:53 “I think i’d be totally crushed. i’d feel like something of mine was taken” 😬 uhh you might wanna re-evaluate girl cause that’s a really toxic mentality. idols aren’t objects and they’re most definitely not yours to keep or own. that’s kinda messed up tbh lmao.
Some of the answers were heartbreaking
"I feel like something of mine was taken"
Sis really? 🙄🙄
Egoistic and possessive fans can't be called fans
Dakota Colley But they are human
So you want them to sell out?
@Dakota Colley they can date without their fans leaving them if their fans r not delusional and love them because of their music & personalities only. Idols already paid us with entertainment & it's enough.
@Dakota Colley no we don't, we support them because we enjoy their music. I don't like my idol because I fell for their personality I like them because their music and me supporting them let's them expand their career and let them release more music for me to enjoy. that mindset is toxic as well.
@Dakota Colley No......the only thing a idol owes us is good music that is it that is all. And as fans we get to enjoy the music they make. And if a certain number of fans drop a group or solo artist for any reason whether it is dating or a member leaves the group there are other fans that will pick that group or solo artist up and listen to them. Fan fiction.......... really? Fan fiction is just the delusional fantasy of some fans, but instead of keeping it in their heads they decided to write it down. Every fan fiction I have ever read ( Yah, I have read some) are overly romantic, soft porn, or straight up hard core porn. Do you really think idols like or appreciate fan fiction, I don't.
But to get back to the topic of this show what do these fans think idols are going to do? The dating ban is only for a number of years and not every company has one. For example "Big Hit" the company behind B.T.S. has no dating ban. No idol is going to go ten to fifteen years with out having sex, and I pick those numbers because a lot fans don't want idols to date until they are 30 years old if at all. So should kpop idols be allowed to date? Yes of course they should, are they dating after the dating ban, yes they are they are just being very quiet about it. I'm sure some idols are having one night stands, using call girls (high end expensive, experience prostitutes) or doing the whole friends with benefits thing.
There is also a large vocal segment of fans that believe that most of the idols are gay. The guys don't need to date a girl they can just date the members of their group. Well that would be all well and good if he was indeed gay. I have nothing against gay idols, in fact we have one Holland, so to say South Korea does not accept gay idols is wrong. If South Korea did not accept him he would not have been able to sing or release any music videos. And that is where all these "ships" come in to play (ships: short for relationships) most of the ships I see are gay ships between members of the same band. Fans will ask: "Oh such and such (any idols name) don't you love such and such when are you coming out of the closet (meaning when are you going to tell everyone that you are gay.)" And that idol will say: "Oh no I'm stright, I'm not gay". Those fans will loose they ever loving mind on twitter, and the comments section. The fan's will say: "That idol only said that because South Korea doesn't accept gay idols!... (Holland)................ "He is gay in his heart he just doesn't know it yet"..... (Really?). But when one gets down to the heart of the matter, I have read this in the comments section and seen reactors say this when watching music video or interviews: "I want these guys to be gay because if they date a girl it would break my heart! But if they are gay they would look so cute together." So in South Korea the idols have to fight to date. With the international community of fans the idols have to fight to date and with some fans straight idols have to fight to been seen as straight. Also just because someone is straight it does not make them homophobic they are just straight.
I get Kpop is supposed to create this fantasy for the targetted audience, but if you're true fans - wouldn't their happiness be your greatest happiness? 💓
Never seen a more true statement
exactly!!
Ikr. Like people can be in their own fantasy world, but shouldn’t be too delusional to not realize idols and artists are humans with their own lives also.
Exactly
I think it's so weird how they call it a fantasy, bc to me they are singers, idols...They are doing what they love. They even leave their family to sing, to make their dreams come true. Not to make some delusional dreams for teenage girls, jesus ; - ; I don't understand how this girls/guys can be blind and selfish like that.
The fans don’t need to know who they’re dating that’s there business. If they don’t wanna tell they don’t got to.
Those 3 guys at 1:24 saying "is love a crime?" are my favorites.
Loving is never a crime as long as you don't hurt anyone.

They seem like a bro's bro lmao
Best guys :D

Basically those immature fans are just “JEALOUS
Chaluin Nehgy that’s so sad, Alexa play jealousy by Monsta X
Really irritating to watch those girls saying their idol shouldn't get married without their permission. How could they say such things! U can't control someone else mind!
Just because you spent your time and 100$ on someone doesn’t mean you own them.
Even though you'll get hurt that your idol has a girlfriend, it's his life.
that 3 guys are frickin hilarious :D
@hansalam한사람 I don't see your point.
Some of the answers are *so* unbelievably ignorant and selfish that made me sick, seriously, I don't have words.

But they shouldn't deceive their fans" omgg? Were they dating you?😂😂
Its scary actually! The whole thing its scary😨
the ones who said they shoud be fired are literally15 year old girls :/
there are also adults who are like that, honestly. like those sasaeng fans that go to the same airplane as the idols or book in the same hotel... people are sick
bloop oop I'm 15 yet why, I say otherwise :))
But to think of it, it's not the age either. It's the person :))
and they are the main demographic that gives idols their fame so what they think and how they feel matters, unfortunately
They are the ones who'll spend all their (and their parents money) on any kind of merch the company puts out there. It's just a business
When American celebrities date people always say: OMG they r so cute! Couple goals! Etc
When Kpop stars date, obsessive fans are like: OMG HOW COULD MY OPPA/UNNIE BETRAY ME LIKE THAT EVEN THO I'VE DONE SO MUCH FOR THEM!!
Like seriously chill the f out. We don't own them. I really wish people wake up and realize that kpop stars r human like us, they deserve all the happiness in this world.
What if they interviewed a Sasaeng fan by chance, I can only imagine the reaction.
"I think those fans are a little weird" yes they are, everyone deserves to live their life, you don't own idols, the mindset of owning them is awful, i can't understand that possessiveness
Yes so true. Now I personally am pretty attracted to taehyung and if he would have a girlfriend I would be so happy!! I mean I wouldn't have a chance anyway😂 and I wouldn't even want to. I really hope all of them will find real love in the future.
boarderline there just a little
100% agree. I mean I'm Korean too, but honestly, these fans need to allow their idols to have a regular life too. They don't control their life, and they should never control their life. If that's the way they want, they're just sasaeng, which is not being a fan. You're just a stalker and criminal at that point. Sure I have kpop biases too, but I love them just because of certain characteristics, and that even if I do meet them in the future, I'll just be glad to be in front of them and to meet them, that's it. There's no need to be delusional about marrying your bias, because those who are like that, ain't gonna happen, and should never happen. Give them a break, sasaengs who are watching this. Just saying.
Those three guys were the best part of this video! I wanna be their friend lol
It's insannnnnnnne that this unhealthy obsession with idols is promoted and encouraged by the companies and, sometimes, the idols themselves.
I vaguely remember a vlive where a fan commented that they stayed up all night to continually give hearts to the video or something like that, and the idol was congratulating them??? Why encourage that behaviour????
Tell them to go to bed and take care of them self!! Don't give them attention for that!
Is At Sea someone commented on yoongi's vlive that they want to marry him and he encouraged them to have papers ready. I know it can be a joke, but some fans will take this seriously and actually turn up at the agency with marriage papers
@@za-sm7oo
sad ...but true.
I agree.. Why I love Exo they have told us multiple times that we should buy warm clothes instead of buying their album and if a fans tells them they did something like stayed up all night for something and was tired for school next day they tell that person she shouldn't do that and focus on school😛❤
z a especially since a fan recently tried to kiss Yoongi...
Agree. Late stage capitalism at its worst.
Bruh I’m younger than those girls and I would NEVER be jealous if my idol starts dating . I’d be happy for them instead
2:58 this guy is so savage, we could get along well lmao
the two mature women had good points too
overall, i think idols should have more privacy as they have the right to be happy too n this whole "fans owning their idols" cultured needs to be cancelled even if bit by bit
i can understand the desire to want to have someone to urself, but its still not good n its worse when a lot of people think so
ye i can also understand how it can affect their popularity. but punishing n firing them for it is still too extremist imo
1:23
"Love is a crime?"
"Love's not a crime"
yes, I love these guys.
2:30
"They are just jealous"
give them an award!
Hell yes, love is not a crime! Why shouldn't they be allowed to date?
Unless youre the Catholic Church..
I think Hyuna and Edwan issue is a little different from other "love scandal". Cube have been losing fans' trust. That's why they almost get fired.
@hansalam한사람 the cause of what? Them being fired? I get why they were fired, it still was a very fast reaction and they could have handled it a lot better.
The question of this video is whether idols should be allowed to date or not, hence my comment.
@@malithevillain8438 I used to work some company from the US and they fired employees with ridiculous reasons. It happens.
In this comment so many people are like "We're so mature and good people who give idols freedom" then look down other people who have different opinions.
It's easy to sit down in front of computer and complain. In the show business so many people work and much money moves. Idols(actors and agencies) should take responsibility what they do/say.
if Yoongi date or marry a woman..i will be happy for him bc even he's my ultimate bias..he's still not my type😂😂😂i like nerds lol
As a international fan,I would feel very happy if an idol started dating. They are such hardworking people and deserve to feel free to date someone, and I think fans should accept it because,honestly, is none of their buisness.
Honestly, those fans who think idols shouldn't date because they might feel offended are so selfish. Performing for them is already a huge effort to make them smile, and yet they go to such lengths that they even restrict them for dating. Same goes for agencies that forbid dating. An idol having a relationship shouldn't make him/her less of an idol, and if one really is a fan, he/she should understand that like them, their idols are humans too who long for romance.
Mark Andrei Villaflores do you know what type of people that idol can milk money out of them? The one that crazy and get very protective of them.
exactly. like what changes? most idols are dating now anyways we just don't know
“I’d feel like something that’s mine was taken”. Dude, he isn’t your property. COME ON 😂
Exactly
That triggered me so much
So sad, and so sick. Here in USA and in Brazil(my country) we love when an artist we love is happy and dating. We want them to be happy. We keep loving them. Please that idea that the idol belongs to you, is the sickest thing I’ve ever seen
Iveliz Baltazar
Same in india we dont feel like betrayed when any star is dating . This is so sick and toxic
I don’t think this 4 girls want to get interviewed because they know that their one of fan whom banned their idol to dating😂😂
The crazy fans of today have origins that go way back to the first wave of idol groups.
In fact, Kmusic industry is to blame for the crazy fans. When the first wave of K idol pop first started in Korea, agencies were so obsessed with upkeeping their image as ‘untouchable’ gods to the public so that they were looked upon as these out of this world figures that were beyond mere human celebrities- literal idols. At some point, they weren’t even allowed to use public restrooms or be seen out in public casually due to their public persona.

You aren't wrong. As a fan of girl kpop grps I see Agenies/Directors/Choreographers sexualizing the music videos by making idols do seductive dance moves and other things including what u mentioned. Props on the research boss
That makes a lot of sense. Idol does mean a deity of worship...they should be untouchable but then resulting in unreasonable expectations...maybe idol was the wrong term to use..
좋은 말씀 해주셨는데 근본적으로 이런 일이 일어나는 이유는 기획사들이 판타지를 "10대들"에게 팔기 때문
여기서 문제는.. 판타지가 그냥 판타지가 아니라 유사연애 판타지를 감수성 예민하고 사랑에 맹목적일 수 있는 시기인 10대들에게 판타는거 아이돌들이 팬서비스나 팬들을 만날 때 "저는 여러분들밖에 없어요" "사랑합니다" "여러분들이 제 여친/남친"
이런 말들 하는거 자주 보셨을 겁니다 그들에겐 아이돌들이 첫사랑이나 다름 없는거죠 그러니 더 집착하고 배신감을 느끼고...
이러니 당연하게도 10대팬들은 마치 자기 연인에게 구애하듯 팬사인회 한번 들어가려고 같은 시디를 수십장씩 사고
고가의 조공 선물들을 바치고 미친듯이 스밍을 돌리고 또 기획사는 이런 열혈팬들이 당연히 회사 이익에 더 도움이 되기때문에 굳이 여태까지 해왔던 방식을 바꿀 이유도 없는거고 또 그렇기 때문에 이런 일들이 벌어졌을때 이런 열혈팬(주고객)들의 눈치를 살필 수밖에 없는거고..
Yes, I completely agree! Agencies play into this fantasy of having the perfect, pure and almost God--like boyfriend. It is unhealthy for both Kpop fans and Idols themselves.
ReijiAoeGirl666 and then people make fun of them for not being married or suddenly expecting them after “retirement’ to get married and settle down lol. Stupid.
What are the S.Korean record labels trying to be like Disney? the Catholic Church? How are the performers suppose to write and sing love songs, if they don't know how to love.
