This is exactly what I was thinking. I'm reading through this whole thread and people are like "he finally couldn't take it anymore and snapped" and I'm like, okay, sure, that's an acceptable response after a build-up, but in this case, he's apparently "snapped" dozens of times, so many times he can't count. The first time may have been a snap, but now it just sounds like he enjoys it. I do feel sorry for him as these fans sound super duper scary and hard to deal with, and he may have feared for his life at some point, but now it almost sounds like a game to him.

Also, is there really nothing these idols can do to stay away from these fans? If he's really this popular, can't he afford bodyguards? I'm completely clueless about K-pop so I have no idea about any of the situation, I just know that super famous celebrities stateside usually have some big bald dude in a turtleneck and a blazer that stands around with his big beefy hands folded in front of him and you seriously don't want to mess with that guy.
