EXO’s Chanyeol Pleads His Obsessive Fans for Self-Control

[kwonsoonyoung.livejournal.com]

EXO’s Chanyeol makes a plea for self-control to his obsessive (sasaeng) fans in China.

On November 3, Chanyeol posted on his Weibo, “The reason I’m writing this is because I experienced something very dangerous in Shanghai.” He said he decided to post his thoughts after deep and careful consideration.

He goes on to comment, “On my way out of the airport, there were about 20 cars that persistently followed me in Shanghai. These cars blocked the road and made several dangerous lane changes blocking our van. We almost got into several accidents.”

He adds, “There were so many stopped cars along our paths and the [sasaeng fans] kept coming into our lane. Causing such danger is wrong. I hope that the fans can cheer us on without interfering with other people and guaranteeing your own safety.”

EXO is a very popular group in both Korea and China and they have been known to struggle with sasaeng fans in the past. To prevent further danger, Chanyeol took it upon himself to send out a message of warning to the sasaeng fans asking them to handle themselves with maturity.

Don't forget to use the golden "cray cray sasaeng" tag, OP.

That's insane that they are attempting to block off roads. What are they hoping? They're gonna stop their cars gonna greet them?

added it lol thanks for reminding me.

i really dont know i think they wanted to follow him? because i remember it happened with sj-m too, the fans chased them using cabs

[xxhna.livejournal.com]

uhm..do fans think that idols like that kind of thing? that is crazy. i'm glad he addressed it though. saesangs are scary.

This reminds me (different situation, but just both stories with SM idols and dangerous driving) of that time Leeteuk's dumb ass encouraged fans to chase him in taxis and even tried chasing them back (http://mwave.interest.me/enewsworld/en/article/9039/super-junior-leeteuk-chased-down-sasaeng-fans). God, I hate him.

Leeteuk's undying yearning for attention is the very epitome of NAGL.

[slowitdownbaby.livejournal.com]

The more I learn about Leeteuk the more I side-eye him...

[yohan94.livejournal.com]

eh the guy really has issues. i'm not surprised considering his childhood so i try not to hold it against him, it's really sad.

[leighbee333.livejournal.com]

He is really creepy.

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

this reminds me of this one post i saw of a girl who was a sasaeng for a day when tao, sehun, and suho went on their trip and then she wrote a long ass blog post abt how it was the scariest day of her life and that she would never do it again. did anyone else see that post?? it was a good read but idk where the hell i could find it

[platformfire.livejournal.com]

i'm really interested in this!!! please share the link if you find it

[halfdressedliar.livejournal.com]

I believe she means this one http://exo-love.com/sasaeng-fan-account-exos-chuseok-vacation/

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

[seulgibear.livejournal.com]

jncakj this is terrifying omg... for both the girl and the boys. tao talked about this in his sina interview saying the sehun and suho were his responsibility and he didn't know what to do and i bet it was a very stressful experience for them. why are some fans like this, so entitled smh i read too many sasaeng stories about exo to feel entirely comfortable

[kazu-kumaguro.livejournal.com]

damn, it's worse than what I thought, and there are missing girls cases already? and they keep doing it? idk if I should feel bad for the girls.

[kazu-kumaguro.livejournal.com]

not the missing ones, but the ones who keep on stalking the boys despite the risks and all

[setsuna16.livejournal.com]

Stories like this make me weary of being at airports to greet my biases and such. I kinda want to do it, but crazies irk me to no end.

[typhlogirl.livejournal.com]

He must have been scared shitless, poor guy :( The EXO boys really seem to cope the worst of the worst when it comes to sasaengs

[slowitdownbaby.livejournal.com]

20 cars? Jfc...


This reminds me of when EXO-L's were being rowdy @ a fansign and Kyungsoo was basically like "Yall are being assholes so we're leaving, bye."

[nana-the-dwarf.livejournal.com]

What was going on here, why did they leave?

[klauses.livejournal.com]

iirc fans were getting too excited and rowdy, chanyeol told them to get it together, they didn't and a few fans fell down/got hurt, so baeksoo told them that they're done and they all peaced out. but i think they eventually came back to do the fansign once the fans calmed down (? i can't rly remember if they returned or not)

[nana-the-dwarf.livejournal.com]

Hmm, that was very nicely handled. More idols should do this when fans go out of control.

[haixiao.livejournal.com]

you should've been in the original post for this incident, a lot of people were saying that they were rude and shouldn't talk like that to their fans despite how unruly the fans were acting l o l

[magicpineapple.livejournal.com]

I remember that post lmaoooo

[unicornios.livejournal.com]

lmao D.O. does not give a fuck ilh
Ice king tbh <3

[seulgibear.livejournal.com]

i love how baek was handling it and ksoo was not there for any of this shit lmao

[wi-arae.livejournal.com]

I wish they could go out and just say "please stop being my so called fans. don't by tickets, merchandise and albums. what you did is completely disrespectful to me and everyone you put in danger. just stop and do something with you life" [then again these creeps kinda live to me 'noticed by oppa']

buuuuttt SM is notorious for ngaf about sasaengs.

[mamamoos.livejournal.com]

jfc i'd like the people who go around talking about traitors to try and spend a few days in this group and tell me they don't wanna run for the hills too

[kwonsoonyoung.livejournal.com]

this has nothing to do with those traitors.

[kwonsoonyoung.livejournal.com]

lol it's not like they're not in the entertainment industry anymore. they are still in which means they still occasionally experience this too. also this happens in china, where those 3 are living now.

20 cars? that's fucking scary :/

[seulgibear.livejournal.com]

20 cars jesus christ... that's some action movie chase scene. i wish they could be harsher in telling fans to fuck off, but it would only bite them in the ass and be labeled as rude or ungrateful

[heyitsrocky91.livejournal.com]

Why...ugh...that's scary af
