In the world of K-pop, a fansite refers to a fan-run account that focuses one specific idol. These fansites are usually managed by an individual or a small group and are well-known for capturing and sharing high-quality photos of idols at airports, concerts, music shows, or other public schedules.Most fansites operate a social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, or their dedicates websites where they upload previews, full photo albums, and other exclusive content. The images shared by fansite are typically of high quality, capturing beautiful moments using professional cameras and editing techniques, drawing in a large following of fans.
Particularly, in cases whose fansites manage to capture photos from exclusive or limited-access events, the photos become even more valuable and sought after.
However, the concept of fansites can also be controversial, the line between admiration and invasion of privacy can sometimes blur. There have been instances where fansites were criticized for excessively following idols or taking photos during private moment.
Nuna V, a long-established fansite for V, recently faced similar accusations after they posted several photos of the idol attending the Celine Fashion Show on Twitter. The photos, while undeniably stunning, also showed how close in proximity they was to V, raising questions among some fans.
Some accused her of following V to the event, even calling her sasaeng fan, and alleged that they had impersonated a journalist to get V's permission for such close-ups shots. Others criticized them for overly editing V's photos to the point of "whitewashing."
Additionally, many accounts reposted Nuna V's photos without credit — removing her watermark, adding their own logos, and sharing them as if the picture were originally theirs.
After being harsly attacked for posting the images, Nuna V responded strongly by sharing a personal statement on her account, saying:
Previously, the fansite also faced similar accusations after posting photos of V and Park Bogum at Celine's 2022 event and some other private luxury brand functions. At that time, she proved that she had been invited as a VIP client of the brand by sharing her official invitation, making it clear that she wasn't staking him.
Moreover, there have been several occasions where V has recognised and favoured this fansite—looking directly into her camera at events, fansigns, and fan meetings. Because of this, many ARMYs trust that Nuna V would never do anything to violate V's privacy or disrespect him in any way.
Following the recent incident, fans have been actively discussing and sharing their point of views on the situation
ARMYs comments:
π When Tae was allowing to take the pictures of him with a smile, how can they call her a sasaeng and stalker for that? Just coz she living the dream that they want to be, doesn't mean they can accused her as a sasaeng.
π I'm glad that she's speaking up for herself now. This is getting so annoying for even us. I can't imagine how she feels.
π I know what she's feels. Imagine working hard for your favourite person and people come to judging you all time.
π Their jealousy and envious reached the highest level. I think this the first time she depend herself. This people is full of bitterness in their lives.
π They don't even try to understand. She was inside that very exclusive venue. Taehyung is looking straight on her camera in many of the pictures. She shown us the invitations that she received from Celine. For those of us who know and who follow Taehyung is obvious that she's there with his consent. For idiots who clutch at labels like sasaeng without trying to reach the context, well they're always be idiots.
π Nuna V is not the first fan to be trusted by an idol. It is very common for some fansites to be trusted and know the artist. Fans are reach and truly respect the artist. It is not strange for them to know a lot. This kind of thing really exist. Some people are just jealous.
π Girl it 100% jealously pure and simple. You're living the dream of every fan.
π The poor girl. She's so done that they can't leave her alone. She's doing her work and taking pictures for Taehyung but they can't even say thank you. They just judge all the time. She reads everything. She's also human. Please respect her feelings. It's already 2025, and they still call her sasaeng? Bro, grow up!
