Whatever ones are the easiest for you to get information on and seem most easiest to write about.
2. Besides translating videos, interviews, news what else fans do for each other?:
Do whatever's asked of them if they're able to. Such as helping them to connect to the group through projects or even by reporting on concerts if the fan is able to actually go there.
3. I'm sure all of us remember I Love Korea 2008 Dream Concert, where SNSD boycott took place. Unfortunately I have to ask if you remember other cases of that kind of behavior; similar or same as this one?
Henry boycott, 2PM's Leader leaving and the fans boycotting and returning all goods as a statement, etc.
4. Can you tell me if you're anti fan of any group? Yes/No? And WHY? What do you think, why people become anti fans?:
Yes. Who? Not telling and why - mostly because of the things they say or do and even sometimes it's because of the fans. I'm pretty sure everyone, when getting into a group, looks at how their fans act to see if they'd be able to connect with any people and if they see the fans are acting like this or that, it makes them turn away because they have no one to really relate to or they don't think that those fans are how they should be.
5. Besides organizing Birthday/Christmas projects, what else fans/fanclubs do/organize for their idols?:
In Korea, a lot of the fans actually prepare food and meals for the idols. They'll bring it to wherever they have a schedule and if there's no schedule, they'll bring it to their dorm as a gift to make sure their idols are getting enough food.
I think it's cute.
