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.�
