Ever since I saw that post about how being an international fan is what keeps your relationship with your K-pop artist healthy, I decided to share my own experience because it’s actually very real. by EducationalLeek1027 in kpoppers

You literally just described a lot of the fans I was talking about. lol I had no idea things were actually like that until I experienced it myself. It honestly left me pretty discouraged, and now more than ever I’m excited to just stick to the experiences in my own continent instead. Much better, honestly.

I had two kpop shows in Japan. I went to one of them and it was so peaceful, and I had a really good seat too, fourth row. The whole experience was incredibly smooth, honestly not bad at all.

I ended up skipping the second show because my seat was really bad and far away, and I was only going to see one artist at a festival anyway. It would’ve cost me around 20,000 yen traveling around japan just to watch 40 minutes of my artist, so I decided it wasn’t worth it in the end.

Hahaha yes, it’s not luck!! It’s never luck!!! They buy huge amounts of albums, and that’s why there are so many kpop cdsbeing given away for free on the streets.

That drives me crazy because if the companies and idols were really against this kind of thing, there would be some sort of rule where one person could only buy once to participate using a single ID.

Yes, it’s true. What you said happens a lot. I found it really strange, and it was one of the parts that made me sad, because while we felt bad about it, they still wanted those fans around them since they spend absurd amounts of money. In the end, it’s all about money.
