There have been plenty of fancrazes before from JYJ/DBSK fans tracking their cars to Block B fans ripping books, climbing over bookshelves, and making a mess at a signing. But I think EXO fans, EXOtics, are the top of the crazy ssaeng fans. There have not only been MULTIPLE airport incidents with members getting hurt, lost, or feeling discomfort, but these go even past the airport to the gifts to the hotels and shows.
What makes me upset the most is the fact that the ssaeng fans are what many other fandoms see then they get this terribly bad impression that all EXOtics are crazy ssaeng fans who stalk them religiously and stuff when that's not all of us. It only takes a few bad people to make a bad reputation for a whole group.
And the ssaeng fans, if any of them are reading this, why can't some understand that they're not showing their love for EXO at all, but they're scaring them. When you follow them to a bathroom, wire a hotel bathroom to hear one sing, put a camera in a gift, you aren't getting their love, you aren't woo-ing them over with your undying love. You're giving them a bad impression of what their fans are like. And not only do they hurt EXO and the fandom itself, they're hurting other groups.
They've gave Super Junior a black ocean, ripped up a Donghae poster, posed as f(x) fans in order to see EXO, and I heard they planned to throw stuff at G-Dragon at KCON in fears that he'd overshadow their idols. Really? When you hurt other groups, that's a whole different boundary that should've never been crossed. Do they know people mock EXOtics? Out of all the fandoms and the mistakes/ssaengs they have, EXOtics are the most hated fandom.
I'm not sure how long it'll take, or what it will take for these fans to get the message. If it takes EXO not doing anything for two years, will they still stop or would they find some way to break into their dorms? These incidents make me more and more afraid each time I read them. I'm scared someone will get severely injured from getting pushed or stepped on or someone will go further than ually harrassing them and go as far as . If EXOtics love EXO as much as they do, they wouldn't do these things. They're respect the boys' privacy and space rather than crossing the boundaries.
I hope people spread this message, EXOtics or not, so more people get the point and fully understand just how terrible this is.
