![]() At some point he did realise it was disrespectful and not nice to be watching those videos. And he is as ashamed and disappointed of himself. But he never got to watching it and swears on everything that he has never watched the videos nor masturbated to them. The video links were sent to him by that roommate who watches deepfake porn when they were still friends (they have fallen out since a few months ago and don’t really speak anymore), but when he opened the links he didn’t have time to watch it and just bookmarked it thinking he could save it for later. We continued the conversation today and he finally told me the truth. I can delete it if you want.” - which sounded ridiculous to me but this was yesterday night and I was getting really tired by the time he was back so I slept first. I confronted him about this when he came back and his first response was “oh I just saw it and thought ‘oh interesting’ so I bookmarked it but I can swear I never watched it and never wanked to it. He has mentioned before to me in the past that one of our roommates watches deepfake porn (it was my first time hearing of deepfake when he told me about it) and when I asked him if he did too he said no. It is so demeaning towards the girls he claims to be a fan of and also it is just gross. He had bookmarked a deepfake porn video of each member and the group’s page in general, which makes it 5 bookmarked pages in total. I had a shock when I typed the group’s name into the search bar and the related links were of their deepfake porn, then it got worse when I realised those pages were bookmarked. I was watching a show on my bf’s laptop while scrolling on my phone when I came across an interesting article about a certain kpop girl group and decided to search them up on google using the laptop. While there is no doubt that in the majority of cases fans only have the best of intentions when they attend idol promotional events such as fan signing events, people online say that in an industry so heavily sexualised - and especially and industry so heavily criticised for the sexualisation of younger people - it was going to be inevitable that the situation seen in the image above of a grown man interacting with a young female idol would be uncomfortable for many to see.Throwaway account! My bf (22M) and I (24F) are living together with two guy roommates and my bf was out while I was home. Rather than recommending age caps on those who can attend fan sign events, or recommending that groups not hold fan sign events until they are of age, some people recommend and recognise that idols should not be debuting into the industry at such young ages in the first place. ![]() The controversy of the entertainment industry debuting underage members was also brought to the forefront once more. Other fans mentioned that both situations would be questionable, and that idol groups with underage members shouldn't be doing fan signing events at all. ![]() The online K-pop sphere has been rife with conversation since the image went viral from both sides of the argument, with some people pointing out that older female fans also attend fan signings for boy groups with minors, and mentioning the double standard in practice. The image raise questions regarding not only of the man in the image or the NewJeans fandom, but of the South Korean and international entertainment industries as a whole. Questions were raised on social media about why a grown man would be spending presumably large amounts of money to attend a fan signing event and meet underage female idols. The image features a presumably older man sitting in front of member Minji and speaking with her as a part of the fan sign. ![]() An image taken at NewJeans recent fan signing brought about international attention regarding the demographics of the fandom itself.
