A night full of color-coded fans club members holding balloons and posters, ELF (Super Junior's Fan Club) and Cassiopeia (TVXQ's Fan Club) gathered together at the concert hall of Jamsil Stadium in Seoul for another Dream Concert participated by many other Korean Performers.

Suspected male fans of Girls' Generation reportedly ripped all the banners of TVXQ and Super Junior as a vengeance to Cassiopeia and ELF criticizing the members of Girls' Generation because of jealousy all started on the product endorsements of mobile phone and a thirst quencher of TVXQ and Super Junior with Girls' Generation.

Super Junior performed well and didn't quite pay attention to some ELF chanting the never-ending "지켜줄게13명 (Still protecting 13 Members!)" but still thank them for coming to the show and the joy from their eyes performing altogether again.

TVXQ also performed well and showed their full support to Super Junior inspite of restless weeks that have past.

i really dont like the disputes between the different fanclubs esp when all of the 3 bands are from the same company
its really going overboard.

dbsk have been really busy running from places to places, i guess now they should be in thailand.
i hope they rest well.

haha. those SNSD fans are so ridiculous. or maybe.. SNSD's fans are just trying to cover up their idols wrong-doings, especially Tiffany's actions.

OMG i can't believe anti-fans went that far?!!!
Geez... I thought fans were out there to show their appreciation of their idols not to destroy each others' favourite idols.

On a lighter note i like how the fans made themselves distinguishable amongst the crowd lots of support for all of the artists there

I'm was so happy to see DBSK, SuJu, Wonder Girls and Girl's Generation's performances through fancams but seriously anti-fans should really stop bashing each other it brought down the overall appeal to watching it =(

Ok. It was Cass and ELF's faults for criticizing GG out of jealousy but GG's fans are not any better. They accused DBSK of harassment and now they are ripping DBSK's and Suju's banners . I'm sorry but if they still want the girls to be supported by other fans, they should stop adding oil to the fire. Korean fans should control themselves a bit. At least it's a relief I didn't see that coming from shoshi forums.

pffft...anti's have no life i swear. i really think gg deserves the boycotts and criticization though and come on, they hardly have real fans who love their music, their fans love them for their undies. though they don't all deserve to get bashed by ppl who dislike them, but those who bring down the whole group should be ashamed...they know who they are...know wonder why korea has a lot of suicides coz of all the bashing...i'm not an anti but i'm just trying to help them know their mistakes. dbsk and suju fans are as low as the gg fans.

agreed. hmm....i felt relief a bit that this thing didnt cause a huge fighting during the concert. i wonder if they idols knew about this.it must be upset for them >.<

TOTAL BIAS and ONE-sided

- it was pre-planned that all light are turned off during SNSD performance and shouting and boos at the gilrls while they performe. Silent banner were made

- so if you say ripping banners of elf was horrible and wrong then how write it was to do that to the girls...

- none is a right way so why only talk about it in such a bias sense to strade imcompelte picture like that.

we love them for their undies?!
are you sick?!!!
We love SNSD for who they are
and we really adore their music okay
don't talk like that about us SNSD fans!

and i think the fans are so immature
the artistes are from the same company, so what's with the bashing?
and SNSD have already apologised!!!
what's wrong with all the other FCs?
It's so mean to form an alliance against SNSD and boycott their performance!

It is confirmed at Nation Korea News with photos but it's too long so I chose this news from hankyung.com which has a shorter article.

But if you really want to see an evidence, here it is

those SNSD fanboys DO realize that this means Cass and Elf are gonna attack SNSD with something even greater next time....

or probably even more harassing towards SNSD or what not. personally i think fangirls are more crazy than fanboys.



very immature for both parties

First of all, the banner ripping thing, that was so rude. I am a very big fan of DBSK and Super Junior and i don't like that...

Second, I like SNSD's song but i'm not a fan and also I'm not an anti-fan...I'm just a listener...but there some of the girls in SNSD that I don't like...And there's also some of them that I like...But the behavior or their fans are way too ridiculous...they should try talking to them though...

Third, maybe non of these really matters as long as the concert ended up in a success...but then again they are putting up bad actions for actually no reasons...They should just be the fan of such groups and try to respect the fans of other groups as well...

Fourth, well for everyone, let's just continue in supporting them...we're not like those anti-fans and those super obsessed fans which are going way out of control...We all have our limitations...and all we can do to support them is keep listening to their music and try to respect other people's perspectives...

God Bless and Take Care!!!

=^-^=

Guys please no bashing! I think that we should not add more fuel to the fire. Yes all of this was uneccessary from both sides. But you can't deny that there are also more mature fans from both teams. So for the sake of your idols support them and considering that Suju and SNSD are tight please don't hurt both sides! ><'

Makes you wonder if there will be any tension/awkwardness from the artists . Oh well I really hope everyone gets over this and Korean fans learn to control themselves, the dream concert was something that was meant to be fun. So much for a DREAM concert.

what is wrong with all these fanclubs bashing each other?????????????????????????????

please please stop doing these stuff................i beg you...

if your idols find out about this, how will they feel?

as for the ELFs, try to be more supportive of the SuJu sub-groups...k?


despite all these happenings, i'm totally sure the concert turned out great..

WOW...those pictures spoke more than a thousand words!!!

Um... I can't really understand the picture. It doesn't show anything related to ripping banners?

I have watched a clip of the fans' reaction when SNSD were performing Girls Generation. All fans indeed turned off their glow sticks except for SNSD fans. However, you could still see camera flashes coming from most of the non-SNSD fans seats. I'm not sure how to decipher this, but if they don't support SNSD, it is unlikely that they will still take pictures of a hated group.

However, the booing was true and it was really mean...

saw a fancam of the video ripping. it's not a rumour. it's a fact.

there will always be immature fans of ANY group, but to just say that as an excuse is wrong. if everyone commits murder, should we use that as an excuse to not put them to jail? both sides are wrong. just so happens things escalated into this.

so one sided, only talking about the banner ripping
the 10 minutes silence that the three alliance planned b4 hand was also horrible, not only booing, cursing and throwing their middle finger, they even had ppl with signs saying silence walking around in front of their boxes when snsd was performing, theres a very good quality video of that on youtube filmed from the elf section too if u guys want proof

who gets hurt in the end with these wars between fans, the artists

its not only ELF & CASS & Triple S. other fanclub was part of it other than snsd fans and i think shcj. and yes i agree what they did was rude but what snsd fan boy did wasn't any better they ripped off a few of ELF, TS, Cass's banners. also read that they were pretty violent and a few fan girls got sent to the hospital because of them.
and there is a video proof of the ripping of banner. http://youtube.com/watch?v=3ds9sB_K4VY
it DID happen.
i liked the alliance cheering for each other though. it was amazing when they chanted 지켜줄게13명 for ELF. it was so loud.


hilarious. um.yea. then what hae.min.teuk wrote on their CY about the cheers & ELF support must be fake.
wtf at the last part. who ever wrote this article cracks me up!!

Why is it funny...DBSK's been busy for a long time! They're gonna die if they don't get a vacation >_> But still, SUJu's working hard too, we can't miss that >< Well the only GOOD side to this is that Cass and ELF are working together xDDD But yeah, that's not that good lol...

WOW ! the fans are sooo immature .
It`s so simple , if you don`t like a group ...
don`t support them . no need to go so far in ripping up
other fans banners . That`s so rude . Have they ever thought
what their idols would think about their own fans when they hear stuff
like this ?

this is my two cents:

we all probably could accept that these fangirls and fanboys are very dedicated and very jealous of their idols.... probably bashing a bit here and there could pass...

.. but please nothing physical!!! that is way out of bounderies!!!

i saw the YT vid of elves crying bec. suju poster were trampled and ripped... that is sad!

i hope everyone of them learn a lesson in this incident!

i also hope that my dong bang boys are too busy to worry about these things... they are already to harrassed by their schedule to be worrying about this!

i pity suju though! they are worrying about a lot of issues already!!!

poor boys!!

let's just all cheer for them!!!

FIGHTING!!

Um. There are pictures of fanboys carrying knives at the dream concert. :/

Dream Concert's Black and White Charisma,

And red too!


Yah and apparently they used them too. Apparently some fanboys bragged about beating up fangirls of suju and dbsk.

omg thats horrible whatver in the world in up wit these people! i mean jeez everythig is gettin so physical. man i know fangirls fanboys ect all have a life... but well i think they do but why are they wasting time like dat.... thats juss horrrible the scream nd cry of the fc is juss so chilling. i swear i can alradi smell a begainin of a war! juss bcuz one group hab more supporter why do they need to get jealous i mean they all ae from sm nd theyre friends rite. i think girl generation need to have a shout out or talk with their fans cuzz theyre juss so rude nd boys hittin girlss! omg i feel prettie upset... nd not to even mention carryin knife!! ughh so war preparation is definatli gettin done.

final words are control yurself nd no physical attact should be done.

omg that is just sad..i wouldnt expect people to get all physical over idols it is kind of crazy, i think this incident is going to make people hate SNSD even more

i can't believe that the fans of snsd did that!!
haven't they realize that maybe cassopeia and ELF
would attack next time!!
i never thought things like this happens....

this is SO silly and immature! everyone should just peacefully coexist. everyone has their own taste in music and just because of that you cant just go do something like that just to protect SNSD. true they had criticized SNSD but that doesnt mean you should sink to their level and rip off the posters of the boy bands. what the fans do or say has nothing to do with the actual bands so they should keep it separate. so silly.

i soooooo wish i was there especially that my two favorite idol groups were there......and about the snsd's fans thing I agree with all of you it's really immature

does anybody know where can i watch there concert??...i just want to see it...huhuhuh,....

i am just hoping that someone had taken a video...ehhehe

err... there were pics of SNSD fans carrying knives? does that mean that they had already planned to attack the others? i mean.. who would've thought bringing a knife to watch a concert? i really dun understand what in the world had crossed their minds >.<

they're wasting their idols' hard work to perform in the Dream Concert..

The fanboys even brought knives to the Dream Concert?
OMG. :l

What's happening to these fans. Why get physical. What they're doing isn't going to make their idols proud anyway. What they did is immature, I must say.

omg fans are really getting immature!
i'm a fan of DBSK and Super Junior so i was unhappy when i read that GG's fans have ripped banners/posters.
i'm not a fan of SNSD but i think it was disrespectful when they had a 10 minute silent and booing during SNSD's preformance
it's not going to anything but make their idols look bad
hope this will end soon and wouldn't happen again

bash/boo all you want, those are only words, the artists just have to show their best and prove the anti are wrong. for their fans, just fight back with bashing/booing if that satisfy you, but don't ever go physical.

silent treatment and booing is nothing compared to what the fanboys did. i'm not saying what the other FC did is good, but its normal. you can see that in any field, even in sports.

After reading and watching so many clips about this incident I'm still a little bit confused about this....But still I dislike the fact that fans fighting over so much because all it does is hurting our idols ourselves. Why should we get jealous though because we don't really have the power to control what our singers do though....It's just too sad and depressed to hear about this... But anyways, thanks for sharing the news! I hope that both TVXQ, Girl's Generation, & Super Junior won't be too stressful about this ridiculous thing.

Actually, the way i see it,that the SNSD fans club(sorry for accusing you) started the mess. Most of the reports that i heard was that ELFs where not only injured by the knives they (SNSD fanclub) brought to the concert but was hospitalized(major offence)... I mean take a quick second to realize, who would bring KNIVES to a concert when you won't stab anyone? (hilarious isn't it?) And it was said that the concert was delayed because another SNSD fan went to the stage and act like a total idiot of himself.

And how could you not resist the boycott when it was reported most of the fans that SNSD boys tore Super Junior banners?... even YunHo's banner was torn up.

And what's up with Tiffany's attitude towards her sunbaes(seniors)??

SNSD group is one of my hatest girl band in Korea(but i'm not an anti-fan).

I know it's rude to judge but come on SNSD fanclub do you really think you can handle ELF and Cassiopeia?

The 10 minutes silence was planned. That's how they could have gotten the whole stadium to stay silent. It wasn't because SNSD fanclub tore up the banners. But that doesn't mean that ELF and Cassie are the only fanclubs at fault here. If the other fanclubs didn't want to participate, they could have said no.

But I agree that SNSD fanclub went way too far. Yes, what all the other fanclubs did were rude but they don't deserve to be beaten or sexually assaulted. The comments posted by the fanboys on cafes are disgusting. They were saying things like "Women are only good for having children. Men have every right to beat jealous women." I supposed SNSD aren't women? These fanboys need to be slapped. Hard.

how the heck cud they call themselves fans if theyre all just fighting over a small thing... theyre so out of it... if they wanna be fans then just be fan and cheer the ones they like on and dont mind other people .. sheesh

I totally hate SNSD right now. I was watching so many videos about the incident but I can't find any info that it was the male fans of SNSD. Someone who was a fan of all 3 said it was the secruity guards taking off the banner to make room for the fans but that was such a lie. I can't beleieve the fans actually do idiotic stuff like that. I think they deserved the silent treatment and the noycott. Whoever came up to yell "Wonder Girls 4ever or Disband" was clever. But even if it was SNSD's fans ,what did it have to do with SNSD's performance? I'm so confused right now. SJ didn't deserve it ripped banner. they worked hard and had bad times throughout the year with the new sub-groups and Kyuhyun's injury...etc.So glad it didn't have effect on SJ's performance.
