Why are so many fans so mean to their idols? I don’t get this whole idea of wanting to possess your idol. Like… would I like to be Ok Taecyeon’s fiancee? Sure, that’s valid. Would I prioritize his safety, health and happiness, far above my ever even meeting him in person? Of course. This is somebody I care for. I don’t understand fans who can think any other way.

Sadly, a lot of fans don’t actually care for the well-being of idols they claim they love.

In essence, it’s an abusive relationship, and the message certain fans have for their idols is this:

“I love you more than anything in the world. I would die for you and will threaten to kill myself if you do something I don’t like, or speak out against me. I’ll shower you with gifts and spend all my money on you -- so if you don’t behave the way I want, I will have the right to treat you as terribly as I want. I’m giving you all my money, so you have no right to speak out against me: I made you. I’m devoting so much time and energy to you that not doing what I want is a slap in the face and you deserve whatever punishment I see fit to give you. I love you, but don’t cross me, or upset me in any way, otherwise, you’re worthless and don’t deserve a singe drop of happiness.”

It’s really sad how way a group is marketed determines the rest of their lives. Because BigBang was given so much freedom, Taeyang’s marriage was celebrated and people even trended #RipYoungbaesVirginity. But because Super Junior always had crazy, possessive, entitled fans Sungmin’s marriage was an uproar and fans are still petitioning to kick him out of the group to this day. It’s really concerning for other huge groups when they get older like EXO and BTS. They might never be able to marry.

True to what I love about him, Sungmin refuses to be kept down! He has his own YouTube channel, is doing what he wants and is still producing music! If “fans” can’t respect him, he can do without them! There are plenty of ELF who still just want him to be happy.

Henry’s already branching out into other things he’s always wanted to do, and I’m so proud and sad at the same time! This brings up so many emotions as a String and ELF and a Forever15....

I’ve been a String and ELF since Henry’s debut. It was actually Super Junior M that I first discovered on Show Luo’s variety program. I liked him, because he played the violin like I did and I thought he was charming. It was only later that I realized he was (but not really, let’s face it) part of a much bigger group and was in the middle of so much hatred and prejudice.

What makes me the saddest is thinking how long he suffered under not just SM’s restrictions, but at how hateful certain ELF were toward him and Zhou Mi. It was their reaction to Henry joining Super Junior that caused this whole isolation from the group. And yes, look into it: in the very very beginning, he was originally meant to join the main group, but “fans” opposed it so hatefully, SM had to back-track and say he would be part of a sub-group. They were so hateful, even Leeteuk, the leader of the group, showing support and love for Henry was ignored, and even sparked controversy. On Radio Idol’s True Colors, Heechul spoke with ZhouMI about how helpless he felt as a hyung having to stand by quietly and watch what was happening to Henry and ZhouMI, and feeling like the best he could do was be good to them. ZhouMi cried in this episode thinking back on it. If you’ve followed Heechul for as long as I have, you’ll know he always had a soft spot for people who were unjustifiably mistreated.

Well, I guess ONLY13 should be pleased with themselves.

And you know what? That’s fine:

Now that Henry’s no longer a part of the group that zealous faction of “fans” can officially die, as they no longer serve a purpose. Hopefully ZhouMI will follow suit shortly, if he’ll just do himself the favor and let his contract run out. I say this because Henry and ZhouMi will remain close to the members they are already close with, whatever fans think: Heechul and Hangeng were seen in pictures together as recently as 2015 --  SEVEN YEARS after he left Super Junior due to mistreatment by management and SM Ent.

Whew. Okay. Got that out of my system.

I hope we can all move foreword in this, and I hope Henry (and ZhouMi) will thrive and flourish and to all the things he’s always wanted to do and couldn’t.

I hope this for  quite a few SM Idols who have shown signs of feeling stifled and helpless and creatively strangled. I want them all to thrive and do everything they’ve always wanted to do. 

Of course Super Junior aren’t going to speak on it any time soon: they’re still in SM, after all. All of that will have to come with the passing of time, and we can only wait. Who knows. Maybe now that Henry is out of the group, they can support him openly for Christsake!

This really fucking hurts.

This really, REALLY fucking hurts.

Yes, it’s for the best, yes, Henry will be free to do the things he wants, and maybe the other members will finally have the chance to talk about him without getting back-lash for it, but this is a huge chunk of my younger days that’s kind of been shattered. 

I don’t know if I’m the only one who is as upset and happy at the same time, but I haven’t really adjusted yet.
