In a recent talk show, Lisa (Blackpink) said that she was followed by some extreme fans, who harassed her when living alone in Korea. This situation has been going on for a long time, even appearing when Lisa went to Los Angeles, USA.
The Thai singer said: "The first time I faced sasaeng fans (excessive fans) was last year. At that time, I was living alone in Korea. After landing, I returned home from the airport and met a fan waiting in front of my house.
I have made it clear that I feel uncomfortable with someone standing in front of my house. But this person continued to appear in the evening. After checking the camera, I was very scared and did not dare to go outside.
Another time, when I called a taxi to go for a rehearsal, sasaeng fans continued to appear. This person used his foot to block the car door and tried to sit inside the taxi. It was the first time I had to face something like that, so I was very scared and didn't know what to do. I had to ask my manager to come live with me, because I felt unsafe to be alone."
Not only Lisa (Blackpink), many music groups and entertainment stars are also facing a similar situation. Extreme fans can do anything to approach their idols.
Kim Jae Joong, V (BTS), Seulgi (Red Velvet), G-Dragon, Taeyeon (SNSD), Baekhyun (EXO)... have faced similar problems when fans are lurking, violating privacy.
Han Geng (former member of Super Junior) even received a gifted cake and photos covered in blood. Meanwhile, the girl group Apink has been continuously threatened with death and bombing by a subject from 2018 to 2019.
The situation of fans breaking into the house of singers and actors often occurs in Korea. Not only that, sasaeng fans also buy information about flights and trains to follow, with the desire to sit next to and touch the artist.
Although management companies have tried to protect artists, it is inevitable that they will be attacked and threatened by crazy fans.
