The Most Toxic K-POP Fandom: K-pop has millions of admirers all around the world. However, K-POP supporters have a reputation for going too far and being quite nasty. So, which fandom is the most toxic? Take a look at it!
Considering the tiny size of the countries as well as the fact that very few people know Korean, the quantity of K-pop followers is remarkable. The level of commitment shown by these supporters is incredible. However, too much of it may be detrimental at times. Whenever it relates to K-pop lovers, this really is the case. They are noted for their hostility and obvious dislike of competing pop group fans, vocalists, who are divided into factions. So, which one of these fandoms is by far the most toxic?
It’s difficult to pick out a particular fan base as poisonous because not all supporters are hostile to ‘rival’ fan groups. However, according to common belief, BLACKPINK has the most venomous fans while talking about in the K-pop industry. They’re known as Blinks, and their toxicity is so high that they’ve been known to make death threats to anybody who criticises their favourite band. Other fanbases which have shown incidents of toxicity are mentioned below.
- ARMY – BTS
- EXO – EXOTIC
- Twice – Once
- Red Velvet – Reveluv
- EXO – L
- Orbit – LOONA
- Big Bang – VIP
- SUJU – ELF
- Wanna One – Wannables
The fact that K-pop has so many admirers demonstrates that music crosses borders and languages. So being obsessed and propagating hatred makes no sense. Such incidents tarnish the band’s and its idols’ reputations.
