becoming parasocial isn’t some inevitable consequence of fan service, the people that harrassed a girl to the point of attempting need to take accountability for it, writing it off as the product of company tactics erases all responsibility from the perpetrators
and i hope this is a wake up call for all those accounts that thrive off likes they get from dragging and hating on fans, idols, or anyone. these are real people and you never know how badly something can affect someone. if kpop is making you so vile, step back.
this situation goes beyond fanwars and loving a group. everyday yall come online and harass fans who defend their favourite idol/group and just bully idols in general with no remorse and yall dont learn until an idol commits and even then some of you still won’t learn.
this should be a wake up call for everyone. this goes beyond twitter beef and drama. theres people behind these accounts who have feelings and no one is exempt from that. kpop is not serious enough to send death wishes. that is not criticizing peoples actions. ur a bully
i’m seeing way too many of y’all acting like you’re morally superior when you’re just as fucking insufferable. stop weaponizing someone’s death to take shots at the group and fandom you already hated. y’all don’t even give a fuck that someone literally lost their life
when will yall understand that this is not a fandom issue, neither kpop fans issue. it’s internet as a whole, you spent time here attacking people, sending dts forgetting you’re doing it to a real person. limits are always crossed and reflecting only happens when it’s too late.
this is the last thing she posted on her instagram story.
hate is the reason her life got taken away from her at such a young age.
we should all take a moment to reflect and realize that actions do indeed have consequences. words have way more power than we think they do.
