BTS fandom is not hidden, the problem arises when affection towards love stars

 Such an incident happened when three 13-year-old schoolgirls from a
quiet village in Karur district, driven
by their passion for the popular Korean pop band BTS, embarked on an unexpected
journey to Seoul, South Korea, hoping to meet their idols.

Foolishness and extreme passion: they moved out Without passports and
with limited funds, the girls decided to travel
from Visakhapatnam to Seoul by ship. They left their homes on January 4,
took a train to Chennai, and planned to board a ship without passports. Their
parents, worried when they didn’t return, filed a complaint, prompting a
statewide search. Despite having only ₹14,000, the girls believed they could
make it.

After facing difficulties in
Chennai, they eventually boarded a train back home, missing it briefly during a
stop at Katpadi railway station. Authorities intervened, placing them in a
state-run facility in Vellore, where counseling sessions were held for the
girls and their parents.

The incident highlighted the importance of education and parental
guidance:
emphasizing that chasing dreams should be accompanied by practical
considerations. The girls, inspired by BTS, were encouraged to focus on studies
while their parents were advised to monitor and support them. After counseling,
the girls returned home with their parents on January 6.
