Since the article's publication a few days ago, Xports News has noted on December 21 that fans of both Luhan and Justin Bieber (Beliebers) have stepped up to relay their anger towards this comparison.  Both sides are defending their respective celebrity with Beliebers stating, "You can't call Luhan an international star," and, "He's not of Justin Bieber's level when it comes to the number of fans and album sales, so you can't compare the two."

On the other hand, Luhan fans declared, "Luhan's character and personality are much better than that of Bieber," and, "In particular, he doesn't do whatever he wants like Bieber in his private life."  Undoubtedly, there are also fans who have no problem with the comparison.

What are your thoughts? Is this a fair comparison or are you on one side over the other?
