FANATICS, an unfortunate rookie girl group who became famous for being assaulted for failing to expose.

These days, while refraining from offline activities worldwide, the entertainment industry is focusing on online activities. As a result, various new accidents are occurring. Recently, there's a story about a new girl group who became famous for not being able to show her body. You're not going to expose yourself, is that the right direction? It may seem that way, but in fact, it's the news that the accident happened because we tried to intentionally expose our body. For more information, see below.

Fanatics?

The girl group that became famous for not being able to show off their body shape is an idol group called 'fanatics', which is active in the eight-member group. The group debuted in August 2019, consisting of six Koreans, one Chinese, and one Taiwanese. The age of the members ranged from 2003 to 1994. It is a unique distribution in which the age difference between members is up to 9 years. They are a new group that is still inactive and released their second mini album in May this year.

The meaning of the group name is based on 'fanatic' which refers to someone who is very passionate. The girl group expressed their ambition to turn countless people who love their music into fanatics' fanatic. The purpose of the girl group was to compete with music, but unfortunately, they showed up to the public against the purpose.

Live Streaming...

The incident occurred on September 7, 2020. At this time of active social distinctions around the world, idol groups from all walks of life were actively promoting online. Fanatics is no exception, and they were working under the title of 'Recommendation of Dori Pictures' on V Live provided by Naver on the same day. In the broadcast, Fanatics members were talking about matching the costumes they wore in the music video.

The Fanatics staff provided blankets to the members as they were revealing their legs in a rather short outfit during the live broadcast. After a while, I handed the jumper again to cover the member's legs, and I heard a man's voice. He said, 'What if you cover your legs? I'm trying to show you my legs.' His voice was on the audio. And not long after, the man rebuked the staff who gave him the blanket, "You're a fool," and at the same time heard it sounded like a slap on the face. In Lee Sang-hwang, the members' embarrassment was revealed, and silence flowed on the live broadcast for a short time. After that, the members removed the jumper they received from the staff and continued the live broadcast with their legs exposed for about 30 minutes.

Shock, and...

The scene was also carried out in real time through V LIVE, so the members looked embarrassed on the show. That's why netizens who watched the live are worried that the agency is forcing girl groups to expose themselves too much, and also claim that the person who handed the blanket over live appears to be a member of Fanatics. If a Fanatics member handed over the blanket, there are concerns that he might have been assaulted because he heard a slap in the face as well as sexual harassment. Many people expressed concern over the girl group's situation in which it had to stop exposure to men and even listen to sexual harassment. 

As the controversy accelerated, the agency officially announced its position on the case. The agency felt the seriousness of the incident through the staff's misstatement about the broadcast, and apologized to the Fanatics members and fans who were hurt by the incident. However, netizens are showing no signs of lowering their concerns, saying that the staff who committed the mistake seems to be employees with a rather high position in Fanatics activities. They were filled with darkness at an early age.
