JadiGini – The presence of sasaeng fans, of course, is very important for an artist’s popularity, but sometimes the attitude of fans who are so obsessed with an idol has the potential to be dangerous for the bias. That’s because they tend to be reckless and take all means to meet the idol or the term is sasaeng.
10 Moments When Sasaeng Fans Annoy KPop Idols
So, here you can see some of the actions of reckless fans when they faced Idol. Are your idols the target of recklessness from the fans? let’s just go ahead, see 10 moments when sasaeng fans interfere with KPop idols.
NCT 127
This first sasaeng action happened to one of the idol groups fostered by SM Entertainment, it was reported by the Wowkeren site that at that time a number of NCT 127 members were walking at the airport accompanied by a number of bodyguards.
But suddenly a fan seemed to be running towards the idols, the female Sasaeng was trying to break through the guard who was calling. However, the guard swiftly reflexively pushed the sasaeng away with his broad shoulders, just look at Taeyeon’s shocked expression for the actions of the fans who were classified as reckless.
ENYHPEN
The newly formed boy group, ENYHPEN, also did not escape the target of desperate fans. On their first flight, they were swarmed by fans at the airport until they were pressed. In this amateur video, you can see how the crew was powerless to block the ferocity of the fans who wanted to see and touch the brondong idols.
It was reported by newsen via Suara Rakyat that some members were pushed violently, for example, Ni-ki even got separated from the group, while Jake, who was wearing a white hoodie, was reported to have cried and even fell and probably fainted because of the mess. As for Heesung who was wearing a pink hoodie and Sunoo who was wearing a yellow sweater, which looked like they were taking care of each other by embracing each other, overall the members were shaken by the horrible experience.
BTS
The airport has always been a place that is often chosen by fans to see their idol, when BTS attended an event meeting in Jakarta in 2015 and RM cs was trapped at Soekarno-Hatta airport by fans who tried to touch and take pictures with him. Now because without a tight guard, they became the target of a crowd of fans even Jungkook was trapped in it and struggled to escape, but still the fans pulled their bags until Jungkook swayed.
Learning from this experience, now that BTS is getting more and more popular and their fans are getting more and more strict escorts for the 7 members to become a top priority, the bodyguards swiftly block every move of the sasaeng who wants to approach the Idol until they are not moved.
EXO
Exo has also experienced fierce fan attacks, in a recording of conditions such as in a market crowd that tends to get out of control. The EXO members and bodyguards looked overwhelmed and seemed to be caught in the middle, even though they tried to push but the fans around them were getting excited to get closer. This made them even more squeezed, but in the end they were able to escape from the chaos.
The Boys
Well guys, if you saw this show before and thought that the members of The Boys were being chased by sasaengs at the airport, then you’re not completely right. The real incident was that The Boys members and the staff were running after the plane that was about to depart because they arrived only 10 minutes before the scheduled flight.
Wow, what are you doing, Oppa? However, as informed by the Kpopers page, the fans there actually made the situation worse because they followed suit and wanted to intercept them, this sasaeng’s behavior could of course prevent The Boys from getting on the plane.
GOT7’s Youngjae
Well, guys, not only at the airport, even in the middle of a concert, the reckless behavior of fans can overwhelm idols. When holding the first concert of GOT7 2018 World Tour ‘Eyes On You’ in Soul, an unpleasant incident was experienced by main vocalist Youngjae according to the Wowkeren website while waving to the audience, an object suddenly shot at Youngjae and hit his face. Wow, I hope Youngjae Oppa is okay!
blackpink
As a group that is currently popular, the presence of Jisoo, Jennie, Rose and Lisa at the airport is a rare sight and of course fans will not pass up.
Now in this photo, you can see the faces of Blackpink members who can’t cover the tension and also the worries on their faces who witness the enthusiasm of fans around who are ready to approach. Fortunately, the guards who were alert made the fans and sasaengs not free to approach the ‘Lovesick Girls’ singer.
Changmin TVXQ
If at the previous point the fans were very aggressive, this time it’s the other way around. Recently, Changmin’s and Bang Shin Ki’s videos went viral on social media again in 2018, in the footage, Changmin is seen violently pulling a female sasaeng from a taxi.
Reporting from gridid, Changmin’s pull was so hard that the woman fell to the asphalt, Changmin also had an argument with the taxi driver. Changmin’s rude attitude made netizens both pros and cons, but it was later discovered that Changmin had experienced a panic disorder because of fans’ actions. That’s what traumatized him and tended to be rude like before.
IU
Once out of the special airport door, IU looked stunning in a simple red dress and took the time to look at the camera. He waved his hand greeting the fans with a friendly smile. A fan seemed to want to give him attention with a bunch of flowers, but because he was blocked by a bodyguard he was forced to throw it at IU.
This action is of course risky when it comes to IU, fortunately the bodyguard handled the situation deftly. Although a little surprised, IU still greeted her fans and smiled before entering her car.
V BTS
7 years of existence in the KPop industry, Kim Taehyung aka V, of course, already has experience dealing with reckless fans aka sasaengs.
In the video footage that seems to have been uploaded by one of them, it looks like a number of fans are running after V BTS, they are like predators who are ready to chase their prey. Wow, that’s scary, ARMY.
There’s nothing wrong with being a fan, as long as it’s natural! not excessive and tend to justify any means. Even though most of the fans were more accurately called obsessive, reckless fans compared to sasaengs, if left unchecked they could become sasaengs. Don’t let it be like that, okay!
