"Many are likely to listen to the comments and influence of a celebrity than their parents” (Theodosiou, 2012)<ref>Theodosiou, Barbara (2012, Mar 30).

K-pop fans have been known to get so aggressive that security guards must use force against them to keep them away from their idols.<ref>Oddnessweirdness (2012, Nov 7).
