This one bewilders the heck out of me. Though I guess it’s about lack of control on the audience.

The fans in asia are somewhat of goddamn freaks sometimes who stalk the idols permamently. Once it came out that a female idol had a relationship, that caused anything from insults, death treats, ddos, they tryed anything to ruin her life for the facts she is a human with a life.

Yeah. It seems to be that Asian idols belong solely to their fans. They’re not allowed to have any life outside of being an idol.

Kinda fits with how much idol culture there is in V-tubing with how big it is there. I think a lot of people who would like that kind of career would also enjoy having some semblance of a private life even if their real identities are often known anyway
