The Lengths A Father Went For His K-Pop Fan Daughter Goes Viral
On July 12, K-Pop idol group RIIZE held a fan sign event in Busan. Fifty fans were chosen through a lottery, which was sponsored by Dong-A Pharmaceutical’s Bacchus-flavored jelly.
This fan sign event was held publicly at Busan’s Shinsegae Centum City Mall. It included a fan meeting, a Q&A session, and a group photo time.
The members arrived at the event looking amazing as they shined with their visuals!
As the 50 lucky fans went up one by one to meet the members, one video clip in particular went viral. An older man was seen getting the members’ autograph and greeting them.

While many were shocked at the diverse fandom, the story behind the man’s appearance at the fan sign event was revealed.

This man applied for the fan sign lottery for his daughter, but because he had to apply with his name, he had to come to the event instead lololol.
Although funny, many also felt that they needed to change the system for fan sign lottery events.

He must’ve been trying to grant his daughter’s wish, just verify the family relationship certificate and let her in…
K-entertainment can debut 13-15 yo idols but they can't let people under 14 to be fans 🥴 https://t.co/tUZ4A1Ov8F

I bought tickets with my Mom’s ID and showed them the family certificate and they still didn’t let me in and yet they don’t let fans under 14 buy tickets…
