Here are 4 groups who friend zoned their fans with their fandom names!
Kianna, Staff WriterSome of the most important things about the K-Pop industry are fandom names. Fandom names are what identify a group and their fans. Fandom names are what connect people to the groups they stan and it's always exciting to see the reveal of these names. Many groups have chosen the names themselves or even let their own fans nominate a name to choose from. Whether it's BLINKS, A.R.M.Y, ONCES, or more, fandom names are universal and needed for groups to thrive.
As there are many fandom names, some groups have taken an interesting approach to naming their fans. While many K-Pop groups give cute names that resemble relationships for fans, some groups have taken the friendship approach. Here are 4 K-Pop fandom names that put fans in the friendzone!
Gugudan was the first group under Jellyfish Entertainment and also revealed an interesting fandom name! Their fans were known as Dear Friend. When their fandom name was first announced, fans of Gugudan were rather disappointed that they only got to be their friend and nothing more than that. It was described that the fans will become their best friends while they continue their music journey.
Probably one of the original friend-zone fandom names, the popular 1st generation girl group S.E.S has an interesting name for their fandom. Fans of S.E.S are known as Friend and the group has even included the fandom name in their final album titled "Friend." While you may feel a little bit sad about being friend-zoned by these three gorgeous idols, S.E.S loves their fans dearly and will always stick by their fans' sides!
SUPER JUNIOR have been known to show their immense love for their fans but the fandom name gets a lot of laughs from people for its meaning. SUPER JUNIOR's fandom name is E.L.F which stands for Ever Lasting Friends. While the fandom name is supposed to reflect the lasting bond that SUPER JUNIOR has for their fans, many can't help but feel a bit friend-zoned. Nonetheless, the fandom name is cute, and the veteran boy group obviously has immense loyalty to their fans!
GFriend was a six-member girl group that we will never forget! Known for their bubblegum, energetic songs, the girl group was well-liked during their 6 years as a group. GFriend's fandom name is Buddy and it's pretty self-explanatory why they're on the list. Buddy is another way of saying friend so many fans might've been shocked by a name that seems to friendzone them. Many might have expected boyfriend considering the group name. It seems like the girl group had different things in mind! GFriend loves their fans though and we think that the name is pretty cute as well, matching the girls' concepts!

Sandy, Staff WriterK-Pop groups are active on many social media and communication platforms, from Instagram and Twitter (or X) to Weverse and Bubble among a few others. Whether it be through photos and videos or livestreams, each platform has their own unique ways of connecting fans with their favourite idols. Because of the intimate and instant communication fans can have with idols whenever and wherever, many fans flock to follow them on these platforms.
One of these platforms is Twitter. What makes Twitter so popular among fans is that on the platform K-Pop groups post both official content as well as casual content like selcas or off-stage moments of the members. Twitter is also popular among fans because of the ease in sharing and sharing content. Through hashtags, keywords and threads, content can easily be spread across fandoms.
