Netizens’ Worst “Never Meet Your K-Pop Idols” Experiences
They say you should never meet your heroes; the same can be true for K-Pop idols. After all, famous or not, we’re all human, and nobody is perfect. Idols, in particular, must maintain a certain public image that may (or may not) be in line with who they are in private.
Although many fans have had incredible, memorable moments with idols, other fans have, unfortunately, had less pleasant experiences. On Reddit, netizens shared “never meet your idols moments” that changed how they see some K-Pop stars.
1. Rude to the wait staff
Former BIGBANG member Seungri fell from grace during The Burning Sun Scandal, and, unfortunately, new details about the ex-idol’s past behaviour continue to emerge.
According to one netizen, their friend witnessed Seungri being disrespectful at a restaurant.
