[FYI] Being a Fangirl?


What comes to your mind when you heard the word “fangirl”? maybe some of you will say that fangirl is wasting time and have no benefit but some will say that fangirling is an interesting time. As you know, fangirl is a name that called for a girl who like someone or something that she adores. Yup, I am a fangirl, a big fan of Super Junior and everything about Korea. I tell you something crazy that I’ve done. When I was young, i’m a fan of drama “Endless Love” that Song Hye Kyo ad Song Seung Hun starred in. I’m also a big fan of Taiwan group F4 because of “Meteor Garden” even it was when I was 6 years old. I really like Vic Chou and Ken Zhou and I can sing their song with the right pronunciation (it is what my cousin said to me) even I buy stuffs about “Meteor Garden” and “F4”. When I was in middle school, I fell in love with F4 from Korea because of drama “Boys Before Flowers”, both of “Meteor Garden” and “Boys Before Flowers” are adaptation from popular manga “Hana Yori Dango”. After that I learn all about Korea and i have obsession to go to Korea someday. Usually, I can’t become a big fan of something, but if I start to like something, i’m so into it J. I even save 50% of my pocket money only to by stuffs about my idol and I often scolded by my dad because he thinks that i’m so overacted.


sorry, my Super Junior's album left in my house ㅠ.ㅠ

I think my experiences are same with other fangirl, we go crazy whenever we hear our idol’s name, we get sad if there are scandals about our oppa, and somehow for particular fangirls they are like to do “fanwar” in the social media only to protect our idols. Maybe many of us are seen as crazy girls that always do something useless, but we have our own world that people do not and never understand. Fangirls are very sold and tolerance, even many of fanclub help other fanclub in the concert and fangirls are very creative. Although people see that we always delusional but in our imagination we have something that others don’t have and they can be success. For example, the authors who are popular with their stories about idol, they start it with imagination about their idols right?. Rainbow Rowell, she is a fan of Kpop who wrote some novel that have relation with Korean culture. If you read her books, you’ll now that she is an amazing fangirl who success in her own way. I think that people who always judge fangirl are people who only judge a book from its cover. They need to try to understand other people’s interest and respect them.
