Do any K-pop idols have visual self-harm


scars?
Tw// Mentions and talk of Self Harm and scars

I would like to answer this by saying, It's really not


our business. I mean, I can't speak for everyone,
but as someone who has personally struggled with
self harm, I don't really like it when someone points
it out or asks about the scars on my legs. And also,
I recently started going to an out patient hospital.
So I'm there every day, Monday through Friday, and
I’m with my group pretty much the whole time. I’ve
noticed a couple people in my group say that they
also don’t like it when someone calls attention to
their scars like that.

Sometimes pointing out things like this can be


triggering, and for some people, it could make them
feel the need to do it again.

I just think it would be best to not point out things


like this on idols (or anyone’s) bodies. Of course, if
they want to talk about it and they’re comfortable
talking about it, that’s okay. But yeah…

I heard a five second rule somewhere (forgot where


tho). And no, it has nothing to do with food. It was
something like: If it’s not something they can fix
within five seconds, don’t bring it up. For example,
a persons weight or scars. But if it’s something they
could fix within five seconds, it’s okay to bring up.
For example, if they have something in their teeth
or if they’re shirt is untucked or smth like that.

Anyways, just wanted to say this. Hope I didn’t


disrespect anyone in any way, and if I did please tell
me! Please make sure to eat something today, drink
some water and get some well deserved rest, love
you! <3

And here, have a Lee Know before you go

What is the saddest thing K-pop idols said on


camera?
sunghoon [ enhypen ] En-log :

“oh so this is what teenagers do” “this would be


good to do with friends. I see why people like it”

it broke my heart. He beraly had a childhood


considering he dedicated 10 years of his bb life to
figure skating. He also became an idol which
basically is draining his teenage years :(

and when he said the last time he went out was on


iland a year ago hurt even more :(

I feel really bad for kpop idols they dedicated their


childhood/ teenage years just to become idols.

imagine ni-ki bruh hes so young and the fans are


draining him and sexu@lising him …

i rly hope they get more freetime and do what they


want with all the members soon like jake and ni-ki in
his enlog

I feel bad for him, especially for some of K-Pop idols


who didn't even experience a normal high school
days

What is the most obvious lie K-pop idols tell


their fans?
Originally Answered: Who is the most obvious lie K-pop idols
tell their fans?

A lie can break the world.

A lie is dangerous, it can cause more damage than


the beholder was preparing for. So when one tells a
lie, you know that they need to because they are
going to risk that much power.

But we hear kpop idols tell a lie everyday.

For this lie…..it is something many fans have a hard


time admitting that it is nothing but a lie. It can be
incredibly difficult to look past that smile, that
broken smile, and see a bold liar who is caught in
their own vulnerability.

As fans, we always hear our idols say that they


love us.

But sometimes……

They don’t.

And some of us are the ones to blame.

You have almost certainly heard of EXO, one of the


biggest kpop groups right now. They have millions
and millions of fans across the world and their
popularity is through the roof.

EXO are most certainly a group that says that they


love their fans a lot of the time, considering how
many they have.

But think back to what I said about how that may


sometimes be a lie.

Back in 2014, Luhan (who has since left EXO) was


given a teddy bear as a gift from a fan. It all seemed
very innocent at first, just a harmless present from
an adoring fan. But all of a sudden, mysterious
photos were uploaded of Luhan.

It turns out that the fan, now proved to be a


sasaeng, had purposefully gotten a camera
installed into the teddy bear to catch footage of
her idol and stalk him without having to break into
his dorm.

Sasaeng fans have also broken into EXO’s dorms


multiple times. In one instance, a sasaeng caught
footage of Tao singing in the shower after
implanting a recording device in the bathroom of
their hotel room. They even got pictures of him
wearing his bathrobe and coming out of the
bathroom.

Once in an airport, Kai was viciously pulled by a fan


and was injured so badly that Baekhyun had to help
him get back up.

In fact, EXO getting hurt by sasaengs at airports is


a common occurrence for them.

A sasaeng fan once broke into EXO’s dorm and


stole D.O.’s boxer shorts and tried to sell them
online for approximately 100,000 won (around $80
US dollars). She also attempted to sell strands of
his hair and his own socks.

Another time, the members were almost kidnapped


by fans. They had just finished up at an event and a
group of sasaengs had bought a van that was
almost identical to their management’s vans. They
were just about to enter the vehicle until Baekhyun
quickly noticed something was off and they were
pulled away just in time. This all happened in a split
second.

Once, EXO SC (Sehun and Chanyeol) were mobbed


at an airport by fans so badly that both of them
were visibly shaking in fear. Fear at their own fans.

And do you know what EXO says to their fans after


all of this?

“I love you.”

Pain. Hate. Tears. A broken smile. Utter


helplessness.

All shoved away to form a lie.

An idol finally finds someone that they love and


makes them happy. What happens? Fans virtually
abuse the relationship and ban their idols from ever
experiencing the beautiful feeling of love.

Twice asked the question “what is love?” for a


reason.

An idol makes a simple mistake out in public and


immediately feels sorry about it. Sometimes, it isn’t
even their fault, more like a mistake made by their
management. What happens? Fans call for the idol
to be cancelled and flock to social media to embed
words oozing with hate.

An idol comes home to the dorm after a long day of


work, or simply goes out to buy a coffee. They
attempt the simple things that every human is
entitled to. What happens? Fans stalk them by
physically harassing them, breaking into their
personal space, placing recording devices in their
dorms and a large number of other stalker-like
behaviours.

EXO was only one case out of many.

“I love you.”

“I love you because I am restrained from saying


any other words. I am restrained from speaking
the truth, that although you love me, what you
do is hurting.”

But wait.

“I love you.”

“And I mean it.”

It hurts knowing that our idols sometimes lie to us.


It hurts that they sometimes give us false hopes
and pretend that they feel compassion when really,
we are tearing them apart from the inside and they
are too afraid to tell us.

But it’s also an absolutely beautiful feeling to know


that they are also telling the truth. Because when
fans do good things like donating to a good cause
under their favourite group’s name like ARMY did
with Black Lives Matter, I’m sure that that makes
idols love and appreciate their fans. That
sometimes, they are absolutely overwhelmed by
the support and infatuation that we give them that
when they say they love us, they really mean it.

EXO don’t love their sasaeng fans, that’s for sure.


But who they do love is their real fans, the genuine
ones who care about their emotions and personal
space. Those are the fans who idols treasure close
to their hearts.

What if?

What if every single time our idols said they loved


us, they really meant it?

What if they didn’t have to lie?

Lets think about this question in a new way.

“What is the most obvious truth kpop idols tell their


fans?”

“I love you.”

And we are already halfway there to making that


true.

And I know, in my heart of hearts, that we can make


it all the way there.

And now we in a zone~
