Top 10 Most Annoying K-Pop Fandoms
-
ARMY - BTS
As a BTS stan myself, I've considered unstanning just because of the fans (sounds petty but their fans have just become increasingly annoying since the BBMAS). Like others have mentioned before, the fandom is extremely toxic. They constantly belittle other groups (especially senior groups who have actually paved the way for Kpop) to make BTS seem superior, can't argue rationally or take criticism, seem to think that anyone who is not an ARMY is the enemy, and consider legitimate issues to be a joke (I.e. the fact that Psy was actually the first Kpop artist to be awarded a BBMA, and that the claim that BTS was the first Kpop act in history to win said award was incorrect). The amount of ignorance and disrespect that is in the fandom is almost sickening; you could tell a BTS fan that they're not being correct and they'd fight you about it. I love the boys so much but it makes it hard to stan them when the fandom is so toxic.
-
EXO - EXOTIC
I don't think EXO-l's whole fandom is annoying. I think the small percent of immature ones that every fandom has, EXO-l's ones take the cake. From their holier than thou mindset to just being crude for the sake of it or because a certain group is actually getting ridiculous. These immature ones think that EXO is original and that everyone else copies what they do. These immature ones are arrogant about EXO. Don't get me wrong, is good to be proud of your group but to bash people in the process is just wrong. I'm not going to go about what that small percentage did in the past but what I've been hearing now about them *cough*BreakWings*cough* is absolutely ridiculous. Like I said, there are a small percentage of immature fans in every fandom and sadly when you get popular, these small percentage paints the whole fandom. It's just that EXO-l's small percentage of bad fans take the cake in comparison to other immature fans of other fandoms. They go to the extreme.
-
Blinks - BlackPink
I respect BlackPink even if they're not my style of music, but their fans are getting to me. I understand that every fandom has their fair share of immature fans. This fandom in particular though, LIKES and has NO SHAME in BELITTLING other groups and CREATING FIGHTS in the comment section. They act like their queens are better than other groups, as if they don't know that PREFERENCE exists. This happens especially to the Twice fandom, Once. I also stream Twice m/vs (and other m/vs that have a goal) like you guys do to BlackPink, and I see minimal hate comments which is normal for an old m/v...but those hate comments include saying that BlackPink is better. Also, comments that praise BlackPink and insult other girl groups can reach up to 200 likes instead of those that say not to compare others.
-
Once - Twice
Wow, you can tell how ridiculous the Twice hate community is when the top comment mostly complains about Twice and is not even about Once. This list is about FANDOMS not the artists. Other top comments usually complain about fandoms bashing other artists or being unaccommodating to new fans. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that the top comment about the Twice fandom complains about Twice not deserving their popularity when they're supposed to be complaining about Once. Toxic Once do exist, and they should be the subject of this list, not Twice itself.
Not all Twice fans are annoying and immature but I've came across many that are. I've met Onces that would throw shade and put down other girl groups just for the benefit of their fandom. They would say other girl groups are not as hard working or talented which is 100% not true. They would immediately attack the roast people whenever they hear people say one thing bad about Twice. I'm not a huge fan of Twice but I enjoy their music and whenever I would state my opinion on social media, like "I like Blackpink more than Twice", some Onces would go like "Don't hate on us, you're only jealous of Twice's success" and it's really annoying.
-
Reveluv - Red Velvet
Most arrogant and selfish fandom I ever see. They only help more popularity group and next time comeback will help them back. They don't care about small fandom. Redvelvet is good groups. But their fandom really worst than twice and BlackPink. Cause many hater to twice and BlackPink. Because many thrice and blonk keep bashing another fandom. I meet some once and blink are very good to me. A lot of reveluv don't accept yeri now, then let me feel sad. Always compliment Irene, it's true.
I am a reveluv before, but now I'm not. I am a victim. They are too sensitive and cannot accept any query easily get mad aggressive bash me leave their fandom. They always mention BlackVelvet are family, and ignore another fandom. This is really annoying.But they don't know blackpink most of streamer on US no a permanently fans. Actually blink can't help they so much. I can see a lot of thrice and blonk account had a comment sections in red velvet mv before. I guarantee most of thrice and blonk are reveluv, because they all come from big3, but they come back sametime, twice and blackpink can beat red velvet easily. They starting jealous make a fake once and blink account make fan war between once and blink.
-
EXO-L - EXO
This is already on the list but seriously? Okay you said army is mean to exo-ls? How does that make sense. I can not stand exo-l for many reasons one being something like your argument. K-Army were harassed and bullied by fans. Of course there is a mature side to exo-l but they are IMMATURE. It really isn't fair how you directed army.
They blame any group for plagiarism even for the smallest things. They throw hate to army for anything we do. Army could be annoying but that's only 50% of army. Majority of exols are just down right mean and obsessive
-
Orbit - LOONA
Seriously... Why does people have to say "Stan Loona, Stan talent"? Why? Now I want to share with you my experience... I didn't know Loona well, but I always read about them while surfing the web... I thought they were a new group who just debuted, but back then it wasn't like that! When I knew it, I was a bit confused... Ok, they were already showing a new member every month, but how can you already say that they're going to be so talented all together? Their "fans" were so hyped and they haven't even debuted yet. Your can stan whoever you want, but please, don't claim someone is talented ad all people have to think like that
At first I didn't know the name of the LOONA fandom. I know when they vilify my idol, they are not actually involved, but they are also involved in badmouthing my idol. I really don't want to give any details. I'm really surprised, they blaspheme my idol with his account as a loona fan, I think loona is also ashamed to have fans like them.
-
VIP - Big Bang
When Big Bang is promoting they are practically non existent to the Kpop world. Seriously. But when they promote, it's like the worst fandoms with that small percentage of immature groups combined. Severely arrogant and rude to other fandoms and their groups because Big Bang is the best and kings of Kpop and your group is not. It's literally a I'm better than you parade with VIP when Big Bang is promoting.
VIP are not Toxic at all, because I never heard of any issue with that fandom with other fandom and we all know that VIP and ARMY are really good friends, because we all know that BTS are very good fans of Big Bang and I love Big Bang too, my bias is G-dragon.
-
ELF - SUJU
Agree with you. My own experience, sometimes no analysis about their bias although I still used polite and good words to express it. I was a fan of suju but little bit afraid. No room for analysis or criticsm although at another time they analyzed or wrote critical jokes about their bias on their own. Oh God!
Being a mulifangirl, to me ELFs are very rude. I'm still pissed at the fact they wanted Sungmin out for wanting to have a significant. That's just stupid and wrong on so many levels. Then decides to boycott them, that didn't do anything! International ELFs like me from America thought that was stupid. If you were they're fans then stand up for them!
-
NCTzens - NCT
I was NCTzen and I really like NCT before, but after some time, I just realized that NCTzens really love to throw their opinions on others, but it actually looks like "they are mature". You know, what I mean "you can stan everyone you want, but NCT will be still the best". Many fandoms do this, but I find it extremely annoying from NCTzens. They just need to express their opinions EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. Just chill, guys, I know you love your group but you shouldn't try to change my opinions only because NCT isn't my most favourite group in this world.
Trust me, Nctzens is a whole supportive back bones for our boys and we will never drag other kpop group down. If they're not insulting NCT then we have no BEEF honey.
Besides, we're only pointing the blame to Sm actually who's not giving our boys extra lines like guurlll, they need to SHINE too!

Monstiez - Babymonster

Briize - Riize

Sone - SNSD
They always say that new groups copy SNSD concepts and I really hate it. I think they are even worse than Army or Once. This is just my opinion of course. Everyone is free to see their idols as their kings or queens, so they need to stop bashing other groups just because SNSD won a lot of awards or they are called "national girlgroup". I know myself that they're talented but their fans are very immature and I also think that new groups have to be recognized because I find interesting seeing the evolution of Kpop with new idols. SNSD will stay in Kpop history forever so there's no need to start fanwars
Honestly if you try and put even a slightly negative opinion on snsd sones will go at you. Like if you don't like a persons voice when they rap but think their pretty good at singing sones will say your bashing that person because you think they're not perfect. They put snsd on a pedestal and worship them like goddesses.
-
Wannables - Wanna One
I've never been able to get behind groups that I new for a fact were going to disband after X amount of time. I honestly loved their music and everything they did. But the level of toxicity that I found in the fandom of a group that wasn't even going to last honestly shocked me. I didn't get it.
Their fandom is starting to bring out some of their rude and disrespectful attitude towards senior grps like snsd. Some of them also had sexualized Guanlin when most of them are still a bunch of kids. They're insensitive and only cares for their oppa.
-
Stays - Stray Kids
Honestly I can say with pride that STAY is one of the nicest fandoms out there and shouldn't even be on this list, along with Carats. I know that after Wonho left Monsta X, a LOT of Stays went to go support monbebes because they understood how they felt and because they didn't want monbebes to feel alone. Stays in general have very caring personalities, and whenever there is a toxic one around (which rarely ever happens) the rest of the fandom won't tolerate it and ask you to stop. Take this from someone who's in a lot of fandoms, and I can testify stay is really chill and cares about their idols as well as other idols and fandoms
-
CARAT - SEVENTEEN
A handful of ARMYs found out about Seventeen when they started to become popular and those ARMYs brought their annoyingness along with them. Newer Carats themselves are pretty rude and lacks manners too; they were one the reasons why Seventeen's performance on Sketchbook was canceled.
Seventeen is the best, but I would agree if many fandoms will stop bashing other K-pop groups, especially to Seventeen. CARAT fandom is very peaceful. But in my opinion, SEVENTEEN'S fandom is the BEST
They are really peaceful. They aren't that much toxic as we are already spoiled by contents by Seventeen. As a Carat, this is the best fandom ever
-
Blackjack - 2NE1
They are so annoying. Bratty, selfish, rude, hateful, everything you could imagine in an immature fanbase. They spew hate because they don't get what they want and wish death upon people when they don't even know anything about business nor anything that's going on with the company. They don't even know that YG isn't the CEO. They don't know that he only has 20% and don't know how decisions including shareholders are made. They just throw shameless hate because they are upset. They aren't grateful for teasers or music that is released. They hate on more talented groups or any of their rival groups. Overall disgusting human beings
-
SHINee World - SHINee
I should admit that SHINee world (or Shawols) are one of the nicest fandom. They love SHINee so much. They also love other groups too. Even if they don't like any group they don't hate the group or don't do any hateful thing to them. But it's true that every fandom have some hypocrite fans more or less. SHINee World is no exception. As a Shawol I admit that some fans can't stand other groups to be popular. But that types fans are so few in numbers compared to other fandoms
How is SHINee World even here? We don't deserve to be tagged as annoying. Hardly we comment on something that's not even SHINee related. We stick to our own and never dragged anyone down. And to the one comment below, how are we even rude?
-
Buddies - Gfriend
Yes maybe some person on this fandom are really disgusting and spreading toxic comments. But this is a fandom where I can share my opinions and nobody really curse me. They can discuss thing and not get mad easily like any other fandom. Well you maybe say that my opinion isn't valid because I'm a buddy. But I'm objective. If you ask me to list negative sides of gfriend, I can do that. Every group has positive and negative side, and so that their fandoms.
Buddies are disgusting but people rarely recognise it. All I see buddy do is put down other groups like red velvet, twice and blackpink, always saying Gfriend are better. Gfriend have dance/sung covers from SNSD and say they are fans but couldn't even be bothered to give them their album? They never bow to their seniors either. Guess a disrespectful group leads to disrespectful fans...
-
IGOT7/Aghase - Got7
Concerning the Produce 101 controversy... So many of them cursed under the said trainee's video and said rude things (sometimes with swear words) to people who supported the said trainees, claiming that it was 'plagiarism' but without any supporting evidence at all. Many of them said Got7 should be in the credits. News flash! Seems like they don't know that the group doesn't make the beat. Besides they all said (again without evidence) that it was copying when the key signatures of the two backing tracks are really different. And again without evidence, none of them happened to know that the producer of their dear Got7's track mentored the said trainee. Super annoying and dumb. You scroll down the video and everyone is repeating the same 'they copy got7' thing.
-
Merries - MOMOLAND
Momoland's fandom is not at all toxic! But when blinks and armies attacked them for no reason then merries got angry witch anyone can be! All the fandoms always try to protect the idols which Merries also do! Merries always try to protect their girls but also keep this thing in the mind that they don't hurt other kpop groups and the fandom! Momoland fandom can't be called as toxic fandom!
They're are hella rude. One I asked if Momoland's saejaegi have been solved and all Momoland fans kept telling me that I was being salty or jealous that Momoland was getting popular. How was I being salty or jealous for asking a simple question because I was curious and obviously I really think Momoland did do saejaegi just saying.
-
MooMoo - Mamamoo
Mamamoo has one of the best vocal line but I'll be honest, we don't only stan a group based on talent alone. Personality counts too otherwise we would have been supporting singers like Baek Ji young instead. MooMoo are very bitter because Mamamoo who they consider as the most vocally talented group don't get as much attention and attack others who chose to support dancing groups like Blackpink. Sorry, Mamamoo is not everyone's cup of tea.
I'm a BTOB fan. I'm tired of MooMoos comparing Mamamoo to BTOB just so that they could claim that Mamamoo has FAR better vocals and BTOB's songs are terrible and that BTOB is nothing compared to Mamamoo.
-
Monbebe - Monsta X
Monbebe are really peaceful. Even though there were a few bad things that happened to monsta x or misunderstandings, monbebe never went to war. Overall very chill people. Plus they support all the members equally. You'll find in the comment sections that everyone literally has a problem choosing a favourite member lol. Even if they have a favourite member, they always see to it that they support all of them equally.
Their fandom isn't necessarily rude or toxic, but they're just so goddamn cringy. They cry about everything, are still delusional about Wonho and won't let go of their precious ot7. On top of that, they're way too protective of a bunch of grown man who don't know they exist.
-
BABY - BAP
If my memory is correct, BABY was pretty bad back in the day. However, these days, I'm pretty sure it's all like mellowed out.
-
KISS ME - U-KISS
The way they attacked Rhea Lyn was disgusting and I peaced out of that hot mess of a fanclub.
-
St✩rlight - VIXX
These fans will rip apart anyone who doesn't like their artist's music, assaulting all of their social media accounts, all with hateful information.
Starlight is pretty chill? Why is this even here
Come on, just watch vixx and starlights interaction on utube and you'll know.
-
Wizone - IZONE
I'm from Korea. I do not know about intl Wizones, but male fans of Korea constantly harrass female part of the fandom. Also it is easy to find inappropriate sexual comments toward the youngest members. They creep me out. Hopefully nobody's like this outside this hellhole country.
Blind supporters who don't care about the feelings of the real winners of Produce and want them to continue promoting.
Fans of temporary groups tend to be really annoying and immature, for some reason. Feels like they are very defensive, I don't know
