Chinese Idols Chased & Hit by Sisheng Fans — Agency Releases Statement

The Sisheng fans (sasaeng in Korean) of THESE Chinese male idols took their obsession to extreme levels by relentlessly pursuing and even physically assaulting the car in which the stars were traveling in.

On July 8, C-Netz was abuzz with photos of a car collision involving Chinese idols TNT after it was revealed that their sishengs (obsessed fans) were responsible for the accident.

Currently, one of the most popular C-pop boy groups is TNT (Teen in Times) which comprises of seven members, namely Ma Jiaqi, Ding Chengxin, Song Yaxuan, Liu Yaowen, Zhang Zhenyuan, Yan Haoxiang, and He Junlin.

Since their debut in 2019 through the survival show “Typhoon Project,”they have gained immense popularity.

Despite being one of the most well-known youth groups during the idol era in China’s entertainment industry, they garner a significant following wherever they appear. However, they also face numerous challenges due to the presence of sishengs.

Lately, Chinese Weibo has been flooded with videos and photos of sisheng followers relentlessly pursuing and chasing after Song Yaxuan and Liu Yaowen.

During the video, the fan’s car collided with the back of the idols’ car, which raised concerns due to the severity of the visible damage.

Time Fengjun Entertainment, the agency representing the group, responded by issuing an official statement to reassure Popcorns (fandom) about the current status of its members.

“TNT has arrived at the hotel safely. Everyone is safe and we confirmed that our artists were not injured and there is no problem.”

Despite not confirming whether it was truly a sisheng or not, Time Fengjun stated that they had notified the police who would take appropriate action against those involved in the incident. The company also reassured fans that they would prioritize monitoring the artists’ well-being in the future.

In response to the event where sisheng fan pursued TNT, Popcorns openly expressed their frustration and left comments such as:

• “It’s getting really sick, it’s so scary!”
• “They must have been scared, it was too vicious, and the collision was too hard. The oil even (leaked) out.”
• “If it was intentional, please detain her (referring to the bast*rd who chased them).”
• “Don’t do such dangerous things, fortunately, nothing happened, it was really scary.”
• “Take them (members) for a good check! Deal with the bast*rd quickly.”
• “What are the comments saying? From a passerby’s perspective, it’s not just a simple rear-end collision, it’s stalking.
• If this situation is not taken seriously, when ordinary people are stalked and rear-ended in the future, can the one who made the mistake say, ‘Celebrities used to be stalked and rear-ended and nothing happened, but you have so many problems every day”? What should we do?”
