pepperonitoni 117 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I've been into kpop since 2009/2010. So naturally I've met many types of fellow fans from all over the world online. I am in my early 30s now. I have made a few acquaintances near my age, but the VAST majority of people I come across, be on it forums, twitter or tumblr are in their teen years and mid twenties. Most of the time people aren't advertising their ages so you gotta tell by whatever info they put out like school/work etc. What I'd like to know is how others feel about being friends within the scope of kpop fandoms with others outside of their age groups? Weird, normal, doesn't matter? I can get along with anyone but of course there is that level of relatability with someone who is in my age group so its easier. But lately I've been more conscious of this topic due to people I've met recently, a handful of whom are in high school I've noticed. It's probably not worth overthinking right? Has that ever been an issue for any of you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatalpulse 99 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I used to be in a kpop dance crew where I was the youngest at 13/14 and the oldest was like.. 27? If you're friends and the friendship isn't abusive in any way, I don't see the problem. But it does feel strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signalday 244 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I'm old and I only can be casual with who are close to my age so I don't have many friends who like KPop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tae. 2,448 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 As you said, you connect better with someone around your age, maybe because you have similar concerns out of kpop. But that's it. I always had friends from different ages irl, younger and older, and I never had a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrayCray 2,636 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I'm sorta the opposite. I can't connect with people around my age because they're too serious. I like to have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Ren 4,272 Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 I'm 25 now, thankfully I got into Kpop years ago and the vast majority of my kpop friends are all in their 20's but I do know two 17 year olds, we're not friends out side of kpop e.g if their's a concert we'll go together or we'll tweet kpop stuff but that is it, I couldn't imagine actually being friends with anyone below 20.
