Knowing Where Idols Are and What They're Doing
Friend: Did you hear about the new Big Bang MV?
K-Pop Fan: They're probably filming the MV or something this week since I saw an update with a photo of G-Dragon leaving a restaurant with different hair.
A major sign you're in too deep is when you can respond to the simplest of questions with insurmountable detail and knowledge. Fans who experience this can tell what the idol was doing, why they were at the location of the photo, and more just by looking at a photograph of an idol!
