TXT Soobin’s Request To Fans Sparks Heated Discussion About Fan Etiquette
TXT member Soobin’s request to fans has sparked a heated online discourse, with fans calling out their fellow fans for crossing boundaries.
On December 16, KST, the official channel of TXT posted a vlog featuring Soobin and his friend, who is a non-celebrity.
A day before the vlog’s upload, Soobin reached out to fans about it. He mentioned that to protect his friend’s privacy, his face had been completely blurred out in the video. But as an extra precaution, he clearly urged his fans not to try to track him down or contact him. He even requested people to refrain from trying to interact with his friends through social media.
Soobin then revealed that some people even managed to track down his middle school friends, and expressed his disapproval. He pointed out that being tracked down by strangers must be scary for non-celebrities and even warned that if it continued, it would become difficult for him to be candid with fans in the future.
🐰 guys, i’m saying this just in case…but the vlog that will be posted with my friend tomorrow, although he’s been blurred out well, please don’t around looking for him and contacting him…he’s not someone that’s a celebrity so please don’t do that…i know there are people that…

Soobin’s words have sparked fierce reactions from fans, who were enraged that he had to spell it out for people in the first place.
Basically, he’s reminding you all to act like decent human beings and not be weird. https://t.co/ukkRNCpX01

I can’t believe people act like this. Literally doxxing the people who are close to someone you supposedly stan. Have some basic respect https://t.co/OdEVLMzbOS
