"Unfortunately, one part of the idol experience is dealing with fans who push boundaries and do not appropriately behave or respect boundaries. SM Entertainment’s RIIZE has dealt with this on more than one occasion, with invasive fans following them at hotels and airports."
There was a girl once in my group who was followed by a stalker for a long time. It was back in a time where people did not have social media. He was only seeing her on stage. The german police did not do anything to intervene.
One day he caught her alone on the street and beat her up so hardly, that she couldn't dance anymore for a long time. This, besides of the psychological damages, but for us, after such an incident, not being able to do our profession, makes everything worse.
Despite what you see on TV and "hard work" blabla, it is laughable what they are doing on the stage, compared to the profession itself.
They build their entire career on making fans obsessed with them, on making false promises and they know it. They know it by the way they act on camera in their "lives", by the fact that their performances, as oppose to a real dancing act, is not a performance itself, it's a non-stopping looking at the camera - they never perform a dance, they perform some sort of an acting for the fans, otherwise they wouldn't look continuously and have their own cameraman on the stage.
They talk about fans pushing boundaries and not appropriately behave, but what about them, having "intimate" moments with fans through everything they are doing ?
This is the reason males are more successful, because the only group of people who are so easy to manipulate, are young girls and women of all ages, and...gays.
It's not just BTS, or Riize, os SKZ. It's how Elvis and Michael built their careers, the other lunatics the beatles, Jared Leto is more famous for his prostitution-like-propaganda, than for his music, etc.
I wrote something similar in the Stray Kids - they are responsible for a lot of what's going on security-wise and with their fans. They want only the pretty girls to come over at their house and suck their d_)(_W)R(_)W(R_)WR(, and then leave.
They don't want to take responsibility for their actions, are disgusting the way they threat women, they make an entire event when they go out for publicity reason, but want to be given space on the other side??
Imagine the whole kpop industry, if there wouldn't be for all this parasocial manipulation. No more lives, no more endless "i love you letters and programs" for the fans, no more children's game where they gay on each other, hug and laugh like little girls, to create empathy, mothering feelings and acting innocent and pure, good guys, like we all wish to find.
All the other fans screaming "respect their privacy" they are all acting out of jelousy. They would give anything and write constantly about it, to meet them in person, to see them, to touch them.
I've experienced obsession from the other side, when people become obsessed with you and start harming you. A lot of eastern european women in the west are target, because they don't look and don't behave like the typical western woman.
At the same time it's hypocritical for them to write such an article, when they - newspapers, label, company, government - exist for this exact same reason - the more obsessed the fans are, the more money and time are they going to spend on them.
The fans are the reason why they get mentions and their branding value rises.
In a viral clip, an alleged member of RIIZE's staff took unexpected actions to protect Wonbin from an evasive fan following him.

Side note - Wonbin again holding his pants. And to end up in the ironical note - aren't they looking "cute"....
