Why Putting A Photocard Inside Your Phone Case Will Leave You Full Of Regrets

Try NOT to do this.

As K-Pop fans, we love to collect photocards.

We display them in our rooms, buy binders, decorate toploaders, put them in ID badges to carry around, etc…

Most of all, we put our bias’ photocard in our phone case, so they’re always with us.

There are not only the iconic clear phone cases but many even designed just for photocards so that you can simply slide it in…

A video went viral on TikTok, showcasing the potential dangers. One K-Pop fan (@kimhyun.com) shared a video of her friend trying to remove her photocard of TXT‘s Beomgyu from a phonecase. Instead, it ripped in half as the back completely came off, but Beomgyu was stuck to the case.

The friend tried to get the rest of the photocard off the case. In doing so, Beomgyu got completely scratched.

K-Pop fans were horrified at the possibility of their photocards getting ruined just from putting them in a phone case. Some pointed out that photocards should be sleeved in order to protect them.
