Text | Cooked apples

May is over today. Talking about this month, East Asian fan circles are full of heartbroken voices. BOTH SOUTH KOREAN EUN-JEONG WAS DISSATISFIED WITH ENHYPEN'S PAS DE DEUX PARTNER FOR LAUNCHING A "TRUCK REVOLUTION".

There are also internal entertainment paparazzi Liu Sledgehammer broke the news in a series of news, wanting to turn over waves in the internal entertainment idol group, and Anzaki's sentence "He is so miserable, worse than me" made fans who cried for a day stunned for a while. During the period, there were also countless finely crushed melons that emerged one after another, and they ate thousands of fans.

The star enjoyed the halo dividend of fan feeding, but the fans felt uneasy because of the star. How is this not an imbalance swing? The life of the star is life, the life of the fans is also the life, is it bad to spare each other's lives?

World Grace War

ON MAY 22, SOUTH KOREAN BOY GROUP ENHYPEN RELEASED MINI 4 ALBUMS "DARK BLOOD", WHICH OFFICIALLY RETURNED AFTER 10 MONTHS, WHICH WAS A THING WORTHY OF FANS BANGING GONGS AND DRUMS AND FIRECRACKERS. UNEXPECTEDLY, JUST A DAY LATER, ENHYPEN'S FAN GROUP EUNJING ISSUED A JOINT PUBLIC STATEMENT ACCUSING BELIFT LAB (THE AGENCY BEHIND ENHYPEN) OF CONTAINING A LARGE NUMBER OF FEMALE DANCERS ON THE NEW ALBUM. And spontaneously leased LED screen trucks to block the company's downstairs to show their determination to protest.

BUT THE BELIFT LAB SIDE SEEMS TO BE ADDING FUEL TO THE FIRE. On the 24th, in the ENHYPEN singing stage, the eyes and movements of the female dance companion were designed to be more unscrupulous, and after the dance, the female companion who should have looked at the ground began to lean on the shoulder of the idols to look directly at the fans.

As the provocation escalated, the number of trucks downstairs in the company increased. At this time, netizens found that this annual drama had just begun.

ENHYPEN's fans cover the world, and in this tearing incident that caused controversy over female partner dance, not all fans hate the company, such as Yang Enjing, who is mainly European and American fans, who feels that female partner dance is just a tool to present MV vision, which is an overreaction of China and Han Enjing, and even said that they still like it.

But Zhong Han Eunjing did not think so, and could not back down at all to the boundary between male love beans and female dance companions, and left a message on social platforms to counter Yang Eunjing: If you are good for Korean Eunjing, the sound source performance can be as good as you wish. If you are kind to China, you can increase album sales as much as you want. If you are kind to Japan, you will buy a lot of peripherals. But if it is good for foreign cockroach fans, TAs will only ask "choose sooha or me", neither buy albums nor buy peripherals, and will not brush the charts. ”

Among them, the International Enjing Alliance headed by Yang Enjing decided to expel China and South Korea Enjing on the grounds that China and South Korea Enjing resisted the return of ENHYPEN, but Zhong Enjing said that they had the qualifications to be the five permanent members of the alliance and could exercise a veto to directly reject Yang Enjing's trumped-up trial.

A fierce operation like a tiger stunned netizens. Some people don't think it's too big to see the excitement, and ridicule Eun Jing: "Is driving a truck in South Korea so profitable?" Another part of the people sympathized with Enjing's experience, saying that they were in the fan circle, and the family had a difficult scripture: "Enjing don't be sad, watch me take care of it." "Lifting her scars and sharing her brother's intimacy with other women.

It was more comforting, but he overestimated his own psychological endurance, and when he turned back, he found that his fan circle was created by himself. "We can't put our lives in it for the sake of Enjing's life!"

From the initial announcement to the current fan scuffle, the farce has been going on for nearly ten days. During this period, both Zhonghan Enjing and Yang Enjing were expecting the company or their idols to respond directly to this incident, but the feedback they got helplessly was like an empty valley echoing, no matter how loud the voice was, all they heard was the sound of fans being hurt.

"If it's not for rights protection, who wants to be treated as a joke!" A Zhong Enjing said to Bone Duo that the whole process of the incident made her feel a kind of helplessness like Qiu Ju's lawsuit. "Now it seems that only the happy world of truck drivers has been achieved."

Everyone laughs at Enjing, everyone is Enjing?

Although the Eunjing truck incident made a lot of noise, most fans in other circles understood that sometimes they had to face the same kind of problems as Eunjing. That is, it is obviously a fan economy, but the company or idols do not put them in their eyes. So the fan circle rumored: "Everyone laughs at grace, everyone is graceful."

Before and after Enjing's protest, paparazzi Liu Sledgehammer once released five internal entertainment artist love melons on Weibo, namely THE9#Anqi Romance#, R1SE#Summer Light Zhong Lili didn't break up#, INTO1#Zhang Jiayuan and the girl holding hands and going home#, Lehua Qizi #Huang Xinchun love#, and #Actor Xing Zhaolin love#.

As of press time, for the relationship was exposed, Xia Zhiguang, Huang Xinchun, and Xing Zhaolin did not prove it, and they retreated. Zhang Jiayuan refuted the rumor online and was counterattacked twice, and Anzaki directly admitted it, frightening fans.

The behavior of the first four people is like a blunt knife cutting flesh for fans, especially girlfriend fans, expecting that in a bunch of chains of evidence that seem to be true and false, both true and illusory, someone can respond to give a pain.

And the latter, Yasaki, did give fans a slap in the face.

More painful than admitting the relationship, the fan said to Yasaki that she cried all day, Anzaki was silent, and when the fan mentioned that the man's name was on the hot search, Anzaki spoke: He is so miserable, worse than me. Many fans were stunned: "The life of the object is life, our life is not life?" ”

As more and more suspected love cuts of idols are being revealed one after another, the more glass slag is being bought. Fans used to bravely charge in the face of idou being hacked, but now idou's suspected love caught them off guard. "It turns out that I didn't know about you!" "I don't love you anymore, you didn't love me first." "Don't say goodbye, don't meet again." It is a common sentence in the topic square.

The heartbreak caused by idol's love is one part, and the heartbreak caused by the stagnation of idol's career is another. Has the acting career of his own idols gradually risen? Are the resources behind the match for the individual? Are the transformation hurdles well thought out... If most of these questions are answered no, fans will also feel trampled on their hearts.

However, most of the time, fans will choose to target the agency or studio behind idou. "The capital and connections behind it are the important forces leading the transition of idou's business to Waterloo." Including the grudges and feuds between star studios and fans over the years, there are countless of them.

There are also a series of sadness caused by problems such as the misconduct of idols, the lack of a group soul of idols, and the change of style is not as good as before. This is still only explicit heartbreak for many fans, and some stinging is a hidden corner, a PTSD left over from several waves of pink and black wars. Although it is not a one-stroke death, the injury after the pain will always cause old diseases when the rainy day comes.

Sensitivity is like driving a truck to Enjing, 307 to small balloons (Ma Jiaqi fan name).

On the 29th, the entry #College Entrance Examination 307 points girl entrance examination counterattack 211# rushed to Weibo hot search. The protagonist of the story is a post-00s girl. "She scored 307 in the college entrance examination to enter the business English major, and five years later, she was successfully admitted to the China University of Political Science and Law as a graduate student in philosophy." It is an inspirational story in itself, but there is a murmur in the topic square. "Sensitive words" are not college entrance examinations, graduate school entrance examinations, and even more so counterattacks, but the number 307 itself.

Because Ma Jiaqi was exposed in 2021 with a college entrance examination score of only 307 points, it was seriously inconsistent with the identity of the top student presented in the previous public opinion, and was ridiculed by some netizens and black fans. There are even black fans called Ma Jiaqi in 307, laughing that the little balloon has deflated. During that time, many fans who liked Ma Jiaqi had a hard time, and as soon as they went online, they had to maintain the bad comments that followed.

Maybe it's really like a stabbing back, after two years, the number on this hot search still makes many small balloons feel uncomfortable. Without waiting for passers-by to react, there was a dynamic related to the maintenance of Ma Jiaqi by small balloons on the topic square. "The hot search is full of sunspots, and the ponies and fans have already looked forward." "Let go of this boy Ma Jiaqi, the college entrance examination 307 is already in the past." Many uninformed netizens expressed confusion: "Why is it that Ma Jiaqi is said in the square, shouldn't the young lady be blessed?" ”

As the heat of the topic further spread, the girls in the original topic also stood up to fight for Ma Jiaqi, wishing each other a promising future, and in the Weibo dynamic, Ma Jiaqi himself was born.

Good words lead to good causes, and bad words hurt people's hearts. Sometimes I don't blame fans for being overly sensitive, but those words and things touch their weaknesses. But as long as you like it, as long as you are moved, there will be no weaknesses.

For CP fans, it may be that CP is dismantled, for girlfriend fans, it is basically brother love, and for group fans, it may be someone flying solo... The most important thing is that the initiative of these things will never be in their hands, and for them, the fan circle ecology they face every day is unknown. The unknown brings fear, so sometimes they just seem to be fighting power, but they are actually fragile, especially in the face of the increasingly deformed fan culture.

Fans' lives matter

Liking a star is originally to make yourself better, but it always turns out to be heartbroken for various reasons. During this time, the hot powder removal bot recorded the sadness of those fans who were not outsiders. The moment above is always unbearable to like, including not limited to working hard for them, making marketing data look good, or saving money to buy a specialty, and sending idols to debut in a high position. But at the moment below, there is always a sense of powerlessness.

In the past two years, many fans have also actively called on fans to stand up and chase stars, don't let idou's filter cover their light, and firmly control the initiative on themselves, but from the current situation, there is still a long way to go. After all, there is no filter, who chases stars?

Therefore, it can only be suggested that fans are more than chasing stars, knowing as much as possible that their lives are also fate, and expecting idou and the brokerage company behind them to understand what they think and feel can only cure the symptoms but not the root cause, and it is easy to cause more big wars.

For those fans who have been heartbroken, the best cure is nothing more than two, one is new love, and the other is time. Like the lyrics in the song "If You Don't Love Me, I Love Others" in the Peace Hotel: "All the gifts are lost, the memories are lost, if you don't love me, I will love others." ”

If you can't afford to lose the watches, coffee, and washing machines endorsed by those sad idols, hang them on idle fish and sell them, don't wait for the New Year. The thick album can also be taken out to press instant noodles for roommates, and maybe you can exchange it for a meager favor of helping with food in the cafeteria. In short, empty your memories, wait for time, and you will be able to face the sea and blossom in spring.

For those fans who left PTSD due to the pink and black war, they can do proper desensitization inside. Looking at the entertainment stars, Zhang Yixing's fans are currently more successful in this regard. For example, Zhang Yixing previously had a black name called "White Lotus", after fans worked hard to defend their rights, they still couldn't solve it, and simply couldn't join, since the lotus flower is known as a symbol of purity in China, then why not turn the black name into a good name?

And for those fans who continue to struggle on the edge of love and pain, want to take off the powder unwillingly, and want to continue to be afraid of sadness. I'm afraid it's all false to say too much, and I can only sincerely wish fans good luck. After all, in people's lives, star chasing is a revolving door, and it is generally right to learn to leave a way for yourself and hope for a run.

In short, although star chasing is beautiful, you must do everything you can to protect your powder life and learn to strengthen your heart and body. Leave Aoyama without worrying about burning firewood, the life of the star is the life, and the life of the fans is also the life.
