[@florence4372]

It's just weird. With other celebrities, fans either get excited/happy on their behalf or don't give a shit. Heck, whenever I see a celebrity I like, I check if they appear busy or in a bad mood before asking if I can have a picture with them or get an autograph. Just kind of wave and 90% of the time whey'll wave back if they have free hands and see you - if you absolutely want to interact with them. Basically I treat them the same way as I treat random strangers: with a healthy mix of respect, caution and consideration. I mean if you're kinder towards a police officer than your fav artist, you might as well stand that police officer instead

[@Splexsychiick]

[@danaldi]

About the BTS issue, I studied tourism and worked with a lot of airlines as I worked for 2 years as travel agent and did several internships. And just as much as it would be nice for airlines to blacklist sasaengs it is practically impossible. On a legal level, since they pay for the flight tickets and the services that go with them, the airline has to provide the services they promote for the ticket category the clients purchased. And unless they showcase a behavior that could endanger anyone on the plane or be a risk for the safety of the flight, the staff and the airline have no legal method to blacklist saseangs despite the fact that they're private companies. The best option would be for bighit to book the full premier/business class section but then it wouldn't be a good option economically. Even with 7 members and a manager you still have to block about 6 more seats which are usually about 5000-6000$ each. Sadly, looking creepily at other passenger does not fit the danger categories under which you'd be blacklisted yet. But airports definitely can ban sasaengs from airports and blacklist them by taking legal actions.

[@heemi5793]

Can they just buy like a private plane suitable for the staff and the 7 of them? Is that allowed?

[@danaldi]

DiamondJacket well it depends on how cheap $5000-6000 is to any of their relatives. They travel a lot! So I doubt their relatives can all afford to take turns and go along with them and spend that much money. Again it would be a profitable option for BIGHIT to buy all the seats of the section even if from sales and tour revenues you could think they can easily afford it.

[@danaldi]

Heemi private jets are not fit for long haul flights (long distance). They could make a special partnership with an airline but again on a financial level I don’t think any airline would make a deal interesting enough for BIGHIT to be paying for a whole airplane. Airplanes which are the airline property need to be run by a team hired by the airline and to do so you need a lot of certifications recognised worldwide. I don’t think BIGHIT is planning on making their own airline as it would be at their loss. So honestly unless airports take legal actions since sasaeng so do have an endangering behaviour at airports, there’s only so little airlines and BIGHIT can do

[@Insideranon]

They shouldn't date, not until their lifestyle calms down and their career is over. Not because of fans feelings either. What YOU and other ignorant people fail to understand is that they are only human, meaning their mental health and ability has limits. Whether you believ it or not the fact is that relationships aren't easy and they take a toll mentally. All of these excuses people make to "let them date" are wrong or red flags, and you people need to stop taking your life lessons from romance and disney movies. Happiness. No, dating doesn't make you happy. Rely on or finding happiness in other people is a red flag for mental health. A very big one. The people who rely on this are usually the one that grow incredibly anxious when alone. They're adults they can do whatever they want. No. Part of being adult is realizing that you cannot in fact do whatever you want and you need to make sacrifices. This includes dating, because dating isn't necessary. Friends are far more effective. You cannot make a relationship work. You cannot pencil it in. The stress they already deal with that builds up and the rampant mental health issues in entertainment as a whole, this is dangerous. Infatuation is a huge problem in these relationships. Infatuation can lead to obsession. which leads into very dangerous territory. leading someone to hurt others and/or themselves. The fact that the relationship is strained and you have to see the other person whether you like it or not can also make it harder to get over things and worsen mental health issues. Idols already barely get to do their job with how hectic and stressful their lifestyle and schedules are, theres no real time to date. It's actually recommended for people with such lifestyles to wait until they are mentally and timely prepared to date. Those, by the way are a very few examples and reasons, there's a lot more. Notice the above don't mention fans at all? Turns out there's real reasons. Oh yeah, theres also the toxicity of fake relationships because of fans like you. And you eat it up and make the idols lives hell. No, I won't be checking for your petty replies because your misguided confirmation bias does not override facts. and the fact is its unhealthy for them to date. I also know because I've been in the situation myself. One day you'll realize it, and if you don't. Then you can't be helped and I fear for anyone you choose to date. And to the idiot calling people idiots. This serve is for you. crawl out of your Dunning Kruger hole. idiot.

[@casieg.7040]

I can tell the saseang situation stresses so many idols a lot. I remember I once had a stalker who not only stalked me online, but also in real life. I stopped using social media and just stopped going out and if I did I would be with my parents. Saseang's are probably like that but 10 times worse. They already live stressful lives, and these unnecessary things cause more stress. I think companies should monitor fan activity like, look for unaunthorized pictures find the account who took it (they usually use a watermark) and refer back to their blacklist (BH already has one) and forward it to airlines with the Saseang's actual legal name so they won't sell them tickets for that specific flight. It's also our job as fans to not encourage this type of behavior. We're fans, we should know our place. I think that if all entertainment companies got together to bring awareness to this issue, they could make a difference. Their artists health is on the line. At the same time I think the reason why something like this hasn't happened is because the entertainment companies know that saseangs spend ridiculous amounts of money on their idols, they don't want to loose that source of income either. They're the ones that go to every event and spend so much money on albums to be able to get a chance to meet their idols. It's a messed up situation!

I currently am employed with an airline that travels internationally. I can tell you that if a customer is found displaying disruptive behavior prior to boarding, on the aircraft or while in the air, depending on the behavior, agents have the authority to remove any passenger from the flight if the safety of any other customer is in question. So in the case of BTS flying on commercial aircrafts, if they do not report the behavior to the airline staff, unfortunately they will not know to remove, reseat or arrest the passenger if it's warranted. Let's say if someone displays rude behavior and appears intoxicated before take off, any employee on that airline has the right to remove that customer from that flight. Most passengers do not read their contract of carriage when purchasing their ticket. Basically it states that their ticket could be refused or forfeited if the passenger is not fit to fly. So let's say if customers are already in the air and an argument between two customers ensues during the flight. The flight attendants will inform the pilots with the customers' information, then the pilots will contact headquarters, which will then lead to local leadership meeting the aircraft at the destination or divert to another city if necessary and have the local law enforcement present upon arrival. Once aircraft doors open, those customers can face an arrest. Remember that the airline's first priority is the safety of every soul on board that aircraft. Every log in, every check in, all flight information of crew and customer is monitored and recorded. So if airline staff is found giving out sensitive information, that person can face more than separation with the company. It's in the best interest of any airline to maintain business with their VIPs. So if any member of BTS or their staff reports unsafe behavior of these sasaengs to the airline staff, those customers would be removed from the flight faster than Namjoon breaking a new pair of sunglasses.

About BTS its not only or necessarily sasaengs its fansites (but ofc they can also be sasaengs) I used to live in korea for 2 years and at one point I had friends who had fansites for different groups (bigbang exo bts etc) and they showed me how they worked and all and sometimes I travelled with them cause I just wanted to see a concert It's a weird world (and creepy af) These fansites a organized like the mafia honestly one has the job to get the info and someone else will get them the pictures they need So what they did in order to find out which flights idols take was: Option 1) they called the airline and plainly asked what flight person X was taking (they asked for the real name of the idol not the group or stage name obviously) Sometimes theyd also ask for the managers names cause its less obvious then asking for the idol directly U can also ask for the passport no or provide it if they airline wanted to know it (see opt. 3 for how to get it) [Side note i actually did that once cause i was supposed to pick up a friend but she had not given me the flight number or arrival time and they just gave me all the info when I called] Option 2) they either knew someone working for the airline or had someone get a job there for the sole reason to give out information about flights to them, just give them some money and they'll sing and nepotism vitamin B and bribary almost always work to get someone a job or get info out of someone Option 3) not sure if that thing still exists But there used to be a chinese app that would give you flight data if u only entered a persons passport number And what I got to know from Exo fansites is that a LOT of fansite owners had the members passport numbers Theyre relatively easy to get just take a picture of the passport at passport controll..... Reason fansites take the same flight: On the departing airport they get pictures On the plane they might get the chance to sit beside their beloved idols and stare at them for several hours and be close to them (its fucking creepy i know! ) But there have been very private pictures of idols sleeping on flights been posted and for the fansites thats good publicity cause thats what fans also wanna see the very private off camera moments and all that stuff And third in the destination airport the fansites will be the first to get off the plane and run ahead so they can get pictures of the idol on the airport again Its a really hard but profitable business these ppl live off the money they make with selling their own merchandise and stuff and ofc like every other "paparazzi" u want the BEST pictures My experience is from around ~2016 so things might be different nowadays

There’s too much loyalty involved to go to another agency and like you guys said, even for them, creating a new label is not that easy and they’d loose a bit and have also more stress too. They already have the upper hand with YG so I see no reason why they’d have to leave really. I just everyone to be happy (dating, not being constantly scared etc).

GD and YB will leave, as well as Dara. Especially now that CL has left because they are all very close.

[@kazeace853]

All Bigbang and 2NE1 members can just leave YG and Make music together when they want, I'm sure they especially GD can buy a Building and make it a company.

[@dianrahayuningsih8084]

Good, so they could focus on bp

[@MichelleLalnunmawii]

I want that too. But at the same time,saying is easy but doing actually is hard. They can’t just cut off their contracts as they haven’t been expired and they could be indebted if they cut off their contracts with the company with a huge sum of money and you lose all your song and royalties to YG because obviously they are signed under it. And starting a company isn’t just easy as well because if you aren’t good in marketing strategy even if you have the money .

I wouldn't feel comfortable as a regular passenger if I knew there was a saesang on the flight.

[@haleyv5961]

There was an article in korean new about sasaengs buying plane tickets to wait for the plane w the idols, sit on the plane, snap photos all the time, and then they cancel the ticket and deplane before takeoff. That’s so hard to regulate. And many fansites who border on sasaeng behavior are legitimately going to the destination with the group to see the concert. It’s so hard to distinguish the reason someone got on the plane, and if you restrict their next flight, it’s hard to know if they are actually traveling or if they are up to no good. I can’t think of a way to regulate without at least having a few incidents.

Wouldn't it be great if bigbang could "buy out" YG to save YG members.

That's impossible. It's not that easy how you think it is. YG is a publicly listed owned by many investors with major investors owning majority of its shares. GD and Taeyang are not rich enough to be in the level of those crazily rich af investors. The ownership is not easy to be bought.

I actually hope they don't resign with YG and just start their own company. I know it's a color answer to say join Psy but it's not always that simple or work out like that, I just think it will be more fitting if they had their own setup. They have the power todo so honestly. Most fans that be with them since the start call them by their real names anyways so it won't be that big of a deal but I also get it if they want to keep their stage names, cause they built their idol life on those names.

To answer David at 6:25 , I highly doubt there would be backlash bc: A) everyone deserves privacy and feeling safe/comfortable B) sasaeng behaviour is unacceptable whether its a celebrity or not.
