Hello, this is YMC Entertainment.

We would like to address ‘Wanna One Fan Order (http://cafe.daum.net/WannaOneOfficial/QioK/31)’ once again, as we have noticed that there has been no improvement and there are many people who act more severely than before.

Below is a case in Thailand last week.

If such case continues to occur, we will be taking all possible legal actions, including restrictions on fan club activities.


- Case 1. Leaving a letter or gift to Wanna One

Due to few fans leaving gifts behind and traveling around the cabin to see Wanna One, we have received complaints from the airline for the disruption in airline service delivery and for the inconvenience caused to the passengers, including Wanna One members. Also, there were unpleasant incidents, including customs issues due to a number of gifts received in cabin.

All the letters and gifts that were secretly delivered in the airport and throughout the flight were disposed with the help of the airline.

Please note that only the letters and gifts received from the designated site will be delivered to Wanna One members, and that all the gifts received from other places will be destroyed.


- Case 2. Talking directly to Wanna One members or taking a photo secretly

Throughout the flight, under the purpose of going to restroom, there were many people who tried to talk to Wanna One members, touch members’ body, and take pictures of the members while pretending to take selfies of themselves.

Even if you happen to have a chance to take the same flight as Wanna One, please be aware that talking or touching Wanna One members, and taking videos and photographs of the members are highly prohibited.

Upon detection of any of the following violations, please note that we will take away your camera and delete all of your data.


- Case 3. Violating safety precautions within the aircraft

Throughout the flight, regardless of the red sign or during take-off, few fans did not comply with the airline’s safety precautions by standing up or moving around the cabin. Such attitude affected both airline staffs and other passengers. Due to this incident, we have received a number of complaints from the majority of the passengers, as well as the airline.

Please note that the image of Wanna One have been affected due to the above incidents. In case you happen to be board on the same plane as Wanna One, we would like to ask you to behave in orderly manner.


- Case 4. Causing chaotic situation at airport

There were countless number of people violating the airport’s restrictions even in places where any photo and video is prohibited. A number of fans showed disrespect to staffs and breached Wanna One members’ personal space by following them in proximity and taking photos and videos.

Despite the precaution, if one continues to take photos and videos, we will be taking serious action.

Due to the following incidents, Wanna One members are suffering from physical and mental stress.

YMC Entertainment takes the safety of Wanna One members as the top priority; we will be taking actions against the ones who do not comply with the following guideline.

Please note that your action can directly influence Wanna One’s reputation.

In case you happen board the same plane as Wanna One, please comply with the airline’s safety guidelines to avoid any inconvenience happening to other passengers, including Wanna One members.


Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Wow. I feel for all idols in general who have to experience things like this. Its like fans don't understand how this mentally/physically affects them.

[dynamite-state.livejournal.com]

I... feel like this is all talk. They only part where I think they gaf is the inconvenience from the gifts.

The contract is too short for them to care about the members' state, if they were planning on taking action they would have. So what if this keeps happening? They'll put out a 3rd warning letter.

if this is what theyre doing this season imagine what will happen next season

"Due to the following incidents, Wanna One members are suffering from physical and mental stress."


This statement alone sums it all. I'm glad they actually posted this one sentence, will probably wake the sasaengs up and make them realise that STALKING your oppas isn't the right thing to do.


The video of a fan throwing a gift onto Kuanlin's lap was crazyyyy tho, what if it was something dangerous instead ? :/

will probably wake the sasaengs up and make them realise that STALKING your oppas isn't the right thing to do.

If only. Sasaengs have shown time and again that they don't actually give any fucks about how their idols feel; they're not much more than toys made for their amusement and entertainment in their eyes.

What can you even do once they're on the plane though? It must be so hard when these stalkers can literally find out the plane they're on and book tickets to fly with them.

Using this opportunity to promote the trailer for flight to Bangkok, coming soon to a theater near you

But for real, they won't do anything and sasaengs know this. Agencies only talk and threat to sue them but they never do it.

Omg this is so funny. Minhyun's shookt face popping out of nowhere almost made me choke haha.

[rosiemotleymind.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking that if the industry as a whole doesn't get a hold on saesangs it's just going to worse and worse. They could literally put so many people besides the idols in danger. What is it going to take before idols are actually protected? I'm afraid something drastic is going to happen and then people are going to be like "why" and it's like...look at the fans and their choices.

I don't think a statement with the usual threats will do anything... Hope YMC starts taking action asap otherwise this is going to be a really dangerous year for the members

[shadownashira.livejournal.com]

I feel really bad for the members as well as innocent members of the public who have to deal with those 'fans'. Imagine being stuck on a long flight (5+ hours) like this?? If this had happened near me on a plane I probably would have done something drastic like accidentally-on-purpose knock their phones out of their hands and step on them.

[mlmello.livejournal.com]

I always think the same... what would I do if I was just a person in the airport or taking the same flight. if I was their neighbour, I would be calling the police every day on these girls.

[tiny0fairy.livejournal.com]

i feel like peeps aren't treating the kids as people, they've become less than that and this statement seriously suggests the agency feels the same way which is super worrying

[sanctuairee.livejournal.com]

all possible legal actions NICE

including restrictions on fan club activities oh

i feel really bad for these kids. i hope ymc actually does something.

[mortkero.livejournal.com]

Disgusting fan behaviour.

Maybe the management should consider getting chartered flights for them so they can get some peace.
