This Is How You Should Be A Fan: Polish your Idols’ Identity while Support people in Difficulty

The fans’ actions will surely make the idols very proud!

KPOP fans are usually known as “immature” kids who do nothing but buy albums and go to concerts. However, many fandoms are changing this prejudice by proving that they can do more than that. Voluntary work is one way through which fans think they can help the society for their idols.

BABY, B.A.P’s Fandom

B.A.P must be so proud of their beloved fandom!

B.A.P’s fans even built an organization named Helping Hands. This fandom also collaborated with another non-fundraising organization to build a school in Ghana for children who need education. Perhaps this idea came from B.A.P’s leader, Yongguk as he wished to build a school there to help the children in need. With this activity, the BABYs have helped their idol fulfill his dream after all!
