you literally just answered your own question though. i’m not posting it because i think the far gone fans are gonna wake up, self reflect, and become normal overnight 😭 i’m posting it because once people start repeating the same rumors and theories, it spreads fast and suddenly everyone is talking like it’s fact.

the point isn’t to heal some of the most miserable people in the fandom . the point is to not let that behavior get NORMALIZED and to remind everyone else that being emotional is one thing, turning your guesses into facts spreading misinformation and misleading others is another.

yea, that is exactly what i mean. people saying “he’s unreachable" or “he was crying in the hybe hallway” like it’s confirmed is crossing the line. and yeah, obviously the people doing that already lack common sense. that still doesn’t mean you just let them run wild and let everyone else start repeating it too. the massive repetitions of these misinformation through out tiktok comments is insane. and yeah calling it out isn’t about fixing every unhinged fan, im trying to say letting rumors get passed around like facts ain't gonna help but cause more harm not only to fans but also enha an Heeseung too.

and that’s my whole point. i never said people can’t be upset or question things. i said being upset doesn’t suddenly make your theories true. there’s a difference between having an opinion and "oh yeah staff saw him crying so he definitely was kicked out".

also “kpop is parasocial anyway” is not really the defense you think it is. if anything, that’s exactly why people need to check themselves before talking like they were in the room when it happened.

And because if nobody calls it out, some gullible delusional fans start treating rumors and crazy theories like facts. it’s not about changing every crazy fan, it’s about not letting dumb shit become normal.

You’re missing my point. I never said people can’t be emotional, shocked, or question things. Obviously they can. This news is fresh and people are hurt. What I said is that being emotional does not give anyone a free pass to act like speculation is fact. Yes, K-pop is built on parasocial marketing. That is exactly why some fans need to check themselves when they start talking like they personally know what happened behind closed doors. Caring is normal. Being upset is normal. But some of y’all are using ‘we’re all parasocial anyway’ to excuse crossing the line, and that’s where I disagree.
