Xiaoshu 175 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Sometimes it is rather remarkable how far fans would go for their favorite star, and Lu Han's fans are proving just that. Actor and singer Lu Han, who shot to fame from after debuting in South Korean boy band EXO in 2012, posted a photo with of himself and a postbox on the Bunds of in Shanghai on his Weibo account last Friday. "It's Friday today, I was here, see you tomorrow," the pop star wrote. Now, the postbox, whose sole purpose prior to April 8 was to receive mails to be delivered, has become the latest tourist attraction in China's financial hub. Lu's fans have been photographed standing in a 300-meter-long queue at midnight to pose for photos with the post that Lu touched. Some have called this act crazy, and that the these young female fans could find something better to do rather than create a traffic jam in the middle of the night. On the other hand, many have praised the fans' good etiquettes. Sina Weibo user Youyouzi said: "I don't know what they are fussing about in the comments. The girls haven't caused any troubles to anyone. They wanted to line up, and it's none of your business." "It's like how we all go to Oriental Pearl (the landmark TV tower in Shanghai) to take a picture. To the girls, this is a way of entertainment, and they are just taking photographs. See how the girls are all lined up in an orderly fashion. Great! The so-called righteous passersby don't have to point fingers," wrote Weibo user Rachel-YYL.

yabarthe 6,697 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 He wasn't expecting this to happen. I was reading some of the comments and istg some people can be so harsh. The fans who lined up left spaces so other ppl can get through and they made sure to not to cause trouble. Most of them are young, let them have fun.

waterbender 230 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 ^ Lining up to touch something a celeb touched for hours is quite depressing. But yeah, if they had fun then good for them. Still doesn't change my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chonesian 195 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 I honestly don't understand the condescending comments. Fans are simply taking a photo as a memento. It all started with fans who travelled far for Luhan's concert to reminisce their time at Shanghai. Now its mostly non-fans, from all ages, that are taking selfies, heck I saw a wedding photo shot there. The fans are not littering, blocking passage or causing trouble. I'd like to ask you all instead. Have you never been a fan of anything? Do you feel the same way about tourists who take a picture at a place they've never been to? Do you feel the same way about Harry Potter fans who purposely visit the places JK Rowling wrote the book at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yabarthe 6,697 Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 It's not just for Luhan's fan anymore.

Can we just leave this? Let me have my opinion lmao. I'm fine with you thinking of it as cute and you seem to be keen on changing my opinion, but I'm not. Your passive-aggressive comment is unnecessary because I apparently offended you with how I see this as depressing. Never said you had to think that. I'm sorry if you guys dislike how I see this, but nobody said you have to feel the same. And do you not see my sig? Luhan and Kris are both my "favs" lol so go off. Last answer of mine.

Last answer of mine. because your comment was rude calling it "depressing" and i'm not trying to change your opinion. this was just a landmark because a celeb was there and i don't see how that's depressing at all, it's not even just luhan fans that posed with it either, are they sad? no it's just silly fun. i don't care who is in your sig because you're seem to be complaining about luhan somehow anyway also, this is a public forum, people will comment on your opinions anyway lol...

Okay, I said it was the last time but you're being ridiculous. Because I think critically about these kinds of things or admit my favs have faults, that means I'm always complaining about them or dislike them? Realizing your bias isn't perfect or not loving everything they come out with doesn't mean I'm not a fan. And yeah, you're right. My opinion is that you're annoying and won't allow people to their individual opinions. You are trying to change it. You wouldn't have replied to me with something else if you weren't. You're just pissed I pointed that out. Just because I'm not praising this, it doesn't mean I was rude. But you took it personally when it wasn't even directed at you or Luhan, but the situation itself. Sure if it was someone like Paris Hilton's fans doing this, everyone would be saying how dumb it is. Let's agree to disagree because neither of us are going to meet in the middle. Bye again. Sorry for thread-jacking to OP. Continue on all and enjoy your day/night.

Continue on all and enjoy your day/night. no you're replying because you don't want to lose the "argument" lol look, i've been critical about luhan many times but i dont constantly go in his individual threads to bitch (or in general in other threads) about whatever he's done, so it's pretty telling lol. me telling you what i think doesn't mean i'm trying to change anything, just trying to give another output. if you already made your mind up then leave it as that then there's no need to defend it so badly as you're doing so right now. also, considering this post is about luhan then yes it's pretty much aimed towards him, his fans and whoever decided to pose with the mailbox, and calling it depressing as if you think you're above them means it was kinda rude.
