Confession...

 

I am saddened to say that I am no longer a fan of EXO. 

At first, it started as an EXO hiatus back in December and I told myself that once they have their comeback, I’ll be back into EXO. But I never did. I lost interest in them for a while now and any new news about them appears, I’m not as excited or as thrilled as I used to be. I’ve been their fan since the day they released the Mama MV but now…I stopped.

This is mostly because of the stans fans of EXO. Their lack of respect, appreciation and knowledge bothers me so much! I’m sure many of you have experienced with this and as you’re reading this, you’re telling me that I shouldn’t lose my interest in the boys, it’s not they’re fault. Well, yeah that’s true but I honestly have had enough. The things they’ve said about those who passed away in the tragic ferry incident pushed my limits. I am not generalizing this on all EXO fans but there are a lot of immature fans that are hard for me to handle. 

I know that every fandom has these kind of fans but EXO takes the cake. They’re the worst. SONEs are somewhat similar but I’ve learned to ignore them and I’m back to liking SNSD but not as much and I don’t like every member. I used to be a blackjack but once again, the immature fans made me dislike 2ne1. Not the girls, but the fandom.

What I’m trying to say is that, if this goes on with every fandom and everyone just blurts whatever they have in their mind (not caring if it’s offensive or not) that many people will start disliking K-pop because of these kind of fans. I know a lot of people who have left the K-pop world because of these fans and other reasons.

So, I beg of you, stop being immature and try acting like an adult. Have fun and all that but don’t offend everyone and disrespect people.

I stopped joining fandoms of any kind a long time ago. It's kind of better actually, to just isolate yourself a bit so you don't have to put up with the crazies. Exo is still one of my favorite boy groups by far of course though: I'm still going to listen to their music, I'm still going to write fanfics, I'm just not going to associate myself as an 'Exotic, Exosphere' whatever the heck their fanclub is. If you block out the drama in the fandoms, it's actually been pretty peaceful and relaxing for me ^^ I just talk to my friends and that's about it...so yeah.

Any fan who acts like that is no real fan.

A real fan does not bash other groups. You don't have to like certain ones, but bashing is a no.
A real fan doesn't attack other fans.
A real fan doesn't bully or harass others.

What makes someone a real fan is just showing their favorite artists, that they support and care about their well being. To cheer them on even when things look bad ^^ That's what a real fan is.

You're free to feel however you want of course, but, you're always going to face people like that in life. Just keep your head up and ignore them.

You can be a fan and not be in the fandom.
I sometimes consider myself that because of what they do, but remember "fans" who treat exo like that are either ignorant and need to be told when it's too much, or completely obsessed saesangs. A fandom should represent a community, a family so to speak where fans alike can express their gratitude and appreciation for their fellow artists. It should be a bonding gesture that unites us, but sometimes these people fall through the cracks and turn us against each other. It's understandable to have doubts about people, he'll humans are one /hell/l of a race, but that shouldn't discourage you from the artist (unless you genuinely are not interested then by all means I won't push or judge you )
