Followed by taxi driver
In Korea, crazy fans are one of the obsessions with idols and artists. These people always have a strong passion for their idols, so they commit many acts of invading the artists' privacy such as following, buying or selling the artists' personal information, harassing the artists' family or friends.

According to Koreaboo, Kim Jae Joong recently criticized crazy fans and taxi services that cater to these crazy fans.
He said that he has had to endure many incidents with sasaeng fans throughout his 20 years in the entertainment industry, since promoting as a member of the boy group DBSK. He has had to deal with sasaeng fans for many years and continues to deal with them to this day.
On Instagram, the veteran idol exposed the crazy fans who regularly follow him and use taxi services to support extreme and illegal acts.
According to Jae Joong, the taxis circled the neighborhoods and communicated with each other to track the movements of celebrities, profiting from the crazy fans who wanted to follow the idols.
"Taxis waited on every block. The drivers followed me around, saying they had to do what the passengers told them to do. They communicated with each other by radio, as if this was a mission. They profited from harassing my privacy and wasting my time. It was as if they all had a professional manual on how to do this," the 1986-born idol confided.

After collecting black box footage of the six vehicles involved, Jae Joong said he is taking legal action against the invasion of his privacy.
20 years of privacy invasion by crazy fans
Talking about his "horrifying" experiences with crazy fans, the "Butterfly" singer revealed that one person once vowed to be at his wedding if he ever got married.
"That's terrible! But I hope you show up so you can be arrested there. It's been 20 years. Stop this!", Jae Joong was upset and said that for a long time, he always had to check behind him every time he went out to eat to make sure no one was following him.
The male singer has had his privacy invaded many times. Crazy fans broke into his bedroom, took pictures of him sleeping and posted them online.
He always had to run away from people who claimed to be his fans and wished that these crazy fans would leave him alone, as well as hope that his juniors would not have to endure similar experiences.
Previously, in a program on Japan's Nippon TV, Kim Jae Joong shared his experiences with crazy fans. They repeatedly broke into his room while the male idol was sleeping to secretly take photos.
Specifically, there was a crazy fan who sneaked into Jae Joong's room while he was in the bathroom. This person waited until the male idol was sleeping to take pictures of him, posted the pictures online and bragged that he kissed him while he was sleeping.
Another time, Jae Joong was helping an old lady who had fallen to her feet at the airport, but all fans did was continuously take pictures of him without doing anything to help. This made the male idol extremely angry, and he spoke out to criticize the indifference of these people.
Kim Jae Joong was born in 1986, debuted in the Korean entertainment industry as a member of the group DBSK, under the management of SM Entertainment. The group quickly became famous throughout Asia with many hits such as "Mirotic", "Bolero", "Forever love", "Loving you"...
In 2009, Kim Jae Joong and two other DBSK members, Kim Junsu and Park Yoochun, sued their management company for "slave contracts". The lawsuit shocked the Asian entertainment industry at the time. The three later left SM and formed a new group, JYJ.
In addition to group activities, Jae Joong also released many albums and solo singles with hits such as "Mine", "One kiss", "Butterfly"...
Besides singing, he is also known as an actor when he participated in many films such as "Protecting the Boss", "Timeless Doctor", "Triangel", "Spy"...
