You're Not a KPop Fan, You're Just In A Parasocial Relationship...

from The Salem Tovar Podcast · host The Roost Podcast Network

You're Not a KPop Fan, You're Just In A Parasocial Relationship... In today's video, we will deep dive into the dark and toxic world of the kpop fandom and industry, especially the Kpop group RIIZE and member Seughan receiving thousands of funeral flowers as a protest from kpop fans to leave the group RIIZE just for having a relationship. Toxic beauty standards, the obsession, the pressure to be perfect, the crazy parasocial relationships, the expectation to have absolutely no life outside of the fans and the demand for these kpop idols, celebrities and influencers to be obedient and to be okay with this toxic behavior isn't okay, and it's time for it to stop. Parasocial relationships are on the rise with Gen Z, tiktok and so many other online fandoms and forums. People need to know, celebrities, kpop idols and influencers are here to entertain, not to be your friend. Go to http://shopify.com/salemtovar to sign up for a $1-per-month trial period.
