The K-pop industry has evolved exponentially over the years, and so did its fandom subculture.

The fandom culture is a part of the K-pop industry that goes hand in hand and would never be able to be separated. One of the cultures of the K-pop fandom is to show up to music programs and concerts with banners and placards cheering on the idol. Fans usually make these picket signs to cheer for the idol and also get noticed. 

This culture started way back during the first generation idols and became an inseparable part of K-pop. Recently, one netizen shared that the placards created by fans today are actually cute and looked back at some of the extreme banners from the 90s and 00s. Some of these banners would say ridiculously extreme statements to express the love for the idol.

So here are some of the extreme fan banners from the past.

"100% fatality rate H.O.T"

"Kill me Go Ji Yong!!"

"Eun Ji Won! I can look at you?"


"Stop saying nonsense and just shout 'Sechskies Best'"

"Sechkies! We love you...forever...The day the crazy dog Hoyeon dies, we Sech's fans will have smiles bloom on our faces..."


"Jang Soo Won's scent of orchids, the state in the moonlight."

"Yoon Kye Sang, I lust for you."

"Love even in death, Eun Ji One's one and only "



"Tie Andy."


"Hye Sung, we love you."



"Sunho, die with me."



"Love you...Danny!! Danny suicide squad."



"We go crazy because of your rap."


The netizen who shared some of the photos explained that the fans seemed much crazier and expressed their extreme tendencies even in their banners. Netizens joined the online community and commented, "This is hilarious," "Some of the banners are actually scary," "Wow, the fans back then were really crazy," "The banners look familiar, lol," "These fans are extreme lol," "They used such extreme expressions such as 'kill me,' 'I'm going to die,' and 'let's die,' lolol" "I know the fights between fandoms were really crazy back then too," and "I think these are so funny."
