I know an example of Kris and Tao when they were in Exo. I read they were close but after being shipped sexually they naturally drifted apart from one another. It wasn't the same as before. It really sucks.
Anyone would've felt uncomfortable. Imagine you and I are idols who only know each other from the news and random encounters at award shows then some people start shipping us because we happened to look at each other's direction 😂 When there's no connection between idols other than the nature of their job it's even crazier.
I hate it when it comes to that point. Some of their friendships are genuine, but then fans intervene and it affects them in negative ways.
Fans sometimes take things too far or overanalyze

Fans can misunderstand kpop guys being close with each other due to their lack of problem with being touchy and showing love to one another. It's also part of their culture. They are not being misunderstood with each other because it's not unusual for them to be this way. I'm not saying all Korean men are like that, some don't like to be touched, but I read once somewhere that it's a culture thing.

I've heard about that. In my culture, we usually greet each other with a kiss ( optional ) on the cheek and a hug/ or handshake. This can get misinterpreted with other people that are not aware of this. Skinship can get blown out of proportion at times.

My culture's similar. Also people who think that Koreans are touchy with everyone xD I've watched girls (white mostly) hugging random Korean men on streets as a social experiment and I've never felt more second-hand embarassment in my life.
Truth is, Koreans might have no problem showing skinship with other same sex Koreans but they are not into that with strangers xD
Now that I think better about it, who on earth would feel comfortable having a stranger hugging them out of sudden?

People should just chill and stop shoving their fantasy ships down everyone's throats.
It is best not to talk about two idols romantically unless it is confirmed that they are dating.

The other day I came across an edited picture of Namjoon and Jin ... erotically kissing..?
Whoever makes things like these ~ Don't they have an inch of respect for their Idol?

And what's with shipping people who look at each others direction? 😂 Does that even make sense?

If you search on youtube you'll find countless videos of idols having moments with each other just by looking at their directions and even if they looked at each other, so what? Hasn't it ever happened to you to look at someone for a while? If we were in love with every people we were taking a glimpse at ,then we must've been so easy with love 😂

I saw a tweet about it. I cringed, I almost threw my phone I couldn't 😅 I don't think they realized they were invading their personal space. They must have been so uncomfortable omg...

I know right? Some of them were too gentle and polite with them. My first instinct would be to push them away thinking they were going to rob me or something 😅

Oh gosh...I would’ve ran away and be terrified for my whole life. You don’t hug random people...it’s weird 😖

Just imagine a world where you hug random people,,, and also you're dating every stranger you look at while walking down the streets
I'm enough anxious around strangers already, I'd move somewhere extraterrestrial 😅
Same. I’m going to stay in my house and stay single 😂😂😂
