I am a fan of Korean dramas and follow the development of Korean girl groups and boy groups. Am I a fan of any of them? Honestly, I don't really feel that way. I used to like Chanyeol from EXO. I dreamed of being his girlfriend. Until I memorized his songs.
On the other hand, Chanyeol is my imagination about a physical partner. I was crazy about him. But, I was broken because I was nothing. I was just a fan who could only enjoy his songs. From there, I stepped back from liking the group too much. Just liking it.
But, when I watch Korean dramas, I often find it hard to move on from the characters in the drama. On the other hand, celebrities also treat fans like a girlfriend. Starting from greetings, chatting in applications and others. These celebrities are also very sweet. Finally, this is also what causes fans to act out of line.
There are many cases of fans staying at the same hotel as celebrities. Even, they memorize the celebrity's phone number. For me, that is beyond the boundaries between fans and celebrities. That is already an obsession and intruding on privacy. I also realize that celebrities without fans are not alive.
Korean and Indonesian fans are very different. In Korea, there are fans who can marry the celebrities they like. Sometimes, I wonder how they can date? Liking each other or maybe meeting. This is what I want to know more about.
There is one or a fan of Ningning Aespa, who buys every product campaigned by celebrities. Ningning Aespa, is always the celebrity with the highest sales. Those fans are really crazy. I am a little dizzy with the wars between fans. For me it is a waste of time. But, I give thumbs up to the militant fans. I am just a fan with a capital of Kouta without attending concerts and buying albums.
But, I also like the way and character of Dylan Wang, a celebrity from China. He is very friendly and natural in interacting with fans. Greeting at the airport, smiling and others. From this interaction, it indicates the friendliness of the celebrity.
I like Dylan Wang's personality. This friendliness is not only with fans. It is also done between celebrities. I came to think, Dylan Wang's friendliness is not just a setting. Sometimes, celebrities also give friendliness just for the camera. For fans who are already obsessed, I just want to say, hopefully his mind will come back. That's all I can tell, see you again.
