12 Times Sasaengs Creepily Interrupted Idols’ Live Broadcasts
본문
K-Pop idols are loved and appreciated by fans worldwide. However, when a fan crosses the line into stalker territory, things can quickly become disturbing. Often referred to as “sasaengs” or “sasaeng fans,” these obsessive individuals are willing to invade idols’ privacy and acquire their personal information. This intrusive behavior can be extremely damaging and unsafe to the artist’s personal lives.
Sometimes, sasaengs can go as far as getting an idol’s phone number from unknown sources and call them during live streams to check if they have the correct number. When this happens, idols can become extremely uncomfortable, try to ignore the situation, or even call out the stalkers. Here are a few moments when sasaengs interrupted live streams.
1. Jungkook (BTS)
Jungkook shared that he was scared when the phone calls kept coming in during his livestream from a hotel room.
A sasaeng called JUNGKOOK during the Vlive. I feel bad for JK. He was clearly scared. I hope that sasaeng gets sued. #VLIVE pic.twitter.com/LJIiqIHraS

9. Sehun (EXO)
Sehun gave up changing his number since it won’t deter the stalkers.
Please don’t call me, I’m requesting you. I receive over a hundred calls a day, but I’m not changing my number on purpose. Even if I change it, I’ll receive calls, so that’s even more troublesome to do so. So I made decided to just not change it.

10. Wonho
Wonho told fans that they should not call him directly and that he sometimes gets calls all night.
During today's live, Wonho received a call from a sasaeng.
He said that he receives calls and messages from Wenees all night and that he knows this is because Wenees loves him, but to call directly like that, is not to be a Wenee. Please stop calling him, respect him, please!pic.twitter.com/0Rt25askTG

11. Changbin (Stray Kids)
Changbin took one glance to know that he wasn’t answering this sasaeng’s phone call.
