      I don’t think there is any circumstance where fans should have or expect to have any say in a performer’s private life. Public life, sure, but not private one.

      From what I understand of Korean Kpop stars, particularly the female ones, are less actual stars and more the replaceable face of a massive and very nasty corporate machine.

      Just like with the western ones, particularly Disney, I doubt most of them understand what they’re getting into.
