not an update but...

get the fuck out if you are an anti and/or a toxic solo stan

This is not an update as you can tell by the title. You don't have to read it but I'd be super grateful if you did.

I just wanted to talk about the whole situation involving ENHYPEN and ENGENES at the moment. I really just wanted to express my opinion on the issue so feel free to disagree or add your own comments and opinions.

For those who might not know what is going on right now, in the recent EN- O'CLOCK episode, ENHYPEN made some 'jokes' to Sunoo saying that he was "chubby" But because of mistranslations, fans thought they said he was fat and ate too much. The entire thing was explained by a K-ENGENE:

(This is the image. You can find it on Twitter as well)

Because of this, fans took the advantage to send death threats to the other members even the maknae, NI-KI.

Thankfully, we got a fandom cleanse and got rid of antis and toxic solo stans but the whole point of this is how this could affect NI-KI and the other members involved.

He's a teenager. He's only 15 years old and these things can heavily hurt his mental well-being. They are friends, okay? As friends, they make jokes like this because they are still teenagers. But fans took it to another level to the point that it's not even a small joke between THEMSELVES anymore. As fans, you have to understand that they are not YOUR friends. They are idols. They are already exposed to a toxic industry just by being kpop idols so they don't need hurtful death threats over a small matter that antis didn't even understand in the first place.

Who are you to jump to conclusions like that? Who are you to send death threats to a FIFTEEN. YEAR. OLD? You try and train for months and finally debut, make a joke with your friends and receive this mistreatment from who you thought were your own fans. 

The worst thing is that most of the people who left the fandom and sent death threats don't see the wrong in their actions. Come on. Are you serious? This is a serious situation and you can't be bothered to take as little as 5 minutes to analyze yourself and see that what you did was wrong and is hurting someone whom you don't even know personally? He doesn't know you, you don't know him. How dare you act this way to someone who doesn't deserve it?

By now, I'm sure that NI-KI's mother has heard from NI-KI himself or just from fans on social media. There is a possibility that she will pull NI-KI from the group. It's reasonable though since her youngest child is receiving threatening messages. Did you really want it to come to this? He is a fucking kid. No one deserves this in any way. 

I'm pretty sure most of us have seen that video of the fortune teller. Here's the link if you want to watch it: https://youtu.be/gxNa2bkSNC8

In it, she basically tells their future and analyzes their features but that's beside the point. Sometime during the video, she talks about a potential member leaving the group. I don't want to believe it will happen, I, myself didn't believe it when I first watched it because I didn't know that this would break out. None of the members deserves to go after working so hard for so long. Please don't make NI-KI leave because of your stupid and immature actions. 

Although I mainly talked about NI-KI here, the other members who are also involved don't deserve this. It's completely unnecessary and inexplicably irritating that toxic stans think that just because you know their names and maybe their birthdays means you have the right to do this to them. They already have so much pressure on them by being idols and having to deal with school at the same time (again, they are TEENAGERS). They don't need some bored, immature anti to send them death threats and hate because of something they said amongst themselves and merely a harmless joke.

We lost a good amount of the fandom. Yes, they were toxic and antis but ENHYPEN is only a 6-month-old group. Are you really going to miss their early years as a group together and fight with each other instead?

If you want to cause problems in the fandom, there's the door hun. Even if we end up having less than 100 real fans, at least we are actually here in support of the group and not just here to stir up drama.

Allow me to lighten the mood a little: At least the prices drop for albums, concerts, and more front row seats for the real ones. Only the beautiful/handsome stans remain after everything 😌.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
