Boyfriend fans find Gugudan's official fan club name problematic?

Boyfriend, Gugudan

Gugudan recently announced their official fan club name, and some fans of Boyfriend are finding it problematic. 


On December 16, Jellyfish Entertainment officially revealed that fans of Gugudan are their 'Dan-jjak' (in English 'Dear Friend'), which can translate to 'Best Friend.' However, as you may know, Boyfriend have been using the fan club name 'Best Friend' since August of 2011. 


Currently, some Boyfriend fans are claiming that the similar name and meaning of the two fan club names are a problem, even demanding Jellyfish Entertainment to properly address the issue. Meanwhile, some netizens believe 'Dan-jjak' and Best Friend are two different names, therefore, there is no problem.
