The creepiest idol fan ever?

1The look of a girl who has just seen someone she wants to spend the rest of her life with.

As you all know I’ve been a fan of idols for more than 10 years and in that time I’ve met some pretty batshit fans. I swear all clingy, delusional losers flock to idols. So I thought ______444(name omitted because he thrives off of attention and I’m afraid he might kill me and then himself(for real this time) if I mention him if he’s not already locked up in a mental institution that is)was bad but recently I think I’ve found a new person to claim the title. I wasn’t going to write this as I’m trying to be nicer these days but fuck it, I kept thinking about him. It’s impossible not to once you know what he’s like and frankly I feel like he got off too easily and not many people know what a creepy fuck he is. So that’s where I come in. He says that he will ignore the haters who don’t properly understand his love for Rainbow and Jisook so I guess he’s really telling me it’s okay to write this.

Now if you know me I love Rainbow. They are one of my favourite kpop groups. There’s this site called Visual Glow and I really love and appreciate the work they do. They are an excellent source for Rainbow information if you are a fan and if you follow me on tumblr basically any time I reblog Rainbow related photos or videos there’s a good chance it’s from Visual Glow. Now I’m not one of the people who gets super involved in communities because I don’t really care. I like finding people who I enjoy and relate to so I weed out idiots who I don’t care about. So I didn’t know who ran Visual Glow or who created and didn’t care. I respected what they did and left it at that. That was until Rainbow appeared on a certain show with Visual Glow staff. Truthfully I wish I didn’t know because it almost ruins their hard work for me and I don’t want it to.

There’s this show called After School Club(ASC) that airs on Arirang. The Arirang connection is enough to tell you that it’s a piece of shit but I will further embellish. It’s basically a live show where they host a guest and translate everything into English so everyone understands. There’s two hosts Hanbyul and Eric. They will proudly say that they are the first show ever to have interactions like this and are so unique and creative but that’s bullshit and they should be ashamed of themselves for saying that. It is in every way a horrid, scripted ripoff of the Gurupop Show with the best hosts ever, San E(who was formerly in JYP I will never let him forget it) and Daniel(who is a member of Dalmatian or DMTN because Dalmatian is embarrassing)who is mostly known for this. Gurupop is dead now and it’s really sad because I loved that site and the show and if anyone deserves success it’s them. But I guess that’s life, right? Not everything works out and all that’s left is ASC.

I’ll be honest, ASC is so terrible that I find it hard to bring myself to watch it. It streams at a bad time for me and the idols can’t make watching this snoozefest worth it. They do nothing but interact with fans and not in the way the Gurupop Show used to. This is live and scripted. This is awkward and boring as fuck and awkward. It’s great that they do this for fans and I really appreciate it but no one wants to watch idols mouth words. It’s not fun, disingenuous, and without heart. I wasn’t going to watch the Rainbow show either. But then Tommy Christopher happened. I watched the show and couldn’t believe what I was witnessing. My reaction was a mix of horror, disgust, and shock.

ewBasically.

They actually choose who to put through as well so it’s obvious that this psychotic freak only got through because of who he is. You see Tommy Christopher is the owner and creator of my beloved Visual Glow. You all need to watch this so I’ve linked the video and the Tommy Christopher part starts at 15:30.

I’ll recap a bit if you don’t want to watch but I think you really need to see it to believe it. Pictures only say so much and I mean your life would be ruined if you didn’t hear his heavy lustful breathing while he tries hard not to cum himself when he’s talking to Rainbow. I wish I could say this was my first time experiencing something like this but nope. Thanks idol fandom!

Anyway basically what happens is he appears and everyone is creeped out by him. I’m not even joking. Nobody even wanted him there, not Rainbow, not the hosts. It’s quite apparent.

First off he is the only old one there. That makes him stand out and in a bad way. Although he says “no one seems to believe me when I tell them my age LOL everyone thinks I am younger’ he looks 30+++. Now there’s nothing initially wrong with being old and you know sometimes I do feel bad for old guys who like idols because maybe they mightn’t be so bad. I know there’s lots of annoying fangirls who I want to kill because I hate them so much. They get a free pass because they are young and female but they are seriously some of the worst idols fans I’ve come across.

Personally I don’t care that much but really when you get a certain age people will wonder why you like this or that and there’s a point when it becomes unacceptable. Why are they doing this? Why don’t they get a girlfriend? You know this sort of thing. And again it’s not a casual fan type thing it’s an obsession. If you are a 12 year old with an obsession it’s okay because all 12 year olds are idiots but when you hit 30+ it’s starting to look sad. So if you are old and don’t want to be frowned upon you better look like Joongki, Keanu, Jared Leto or Bin Bons.

You’ll get lucky if you are a jpop fan because it’s basically all old men stanning lolis. But kpop is a different creature. Basically people the age of idols and younger enjoy them. The usual people that come on there are crying Malaysian girls or South American girls screaming at their oppas to come visit them. But no today it was Tommy Christopher.

At this point when Jisook is thanking him for Visual Glow(NOTE: not for being Tommy Christopher)she gives an extremely wide smile and starts batting her eyelashes at him.5

Jaekyung after thanking him breaks into laughter and cute eye smiling for no reason. Then she moves her shoulders back and forth cutely.

These are not natural reactions. This is aegyo. It’s done to please and attract him. If a girl is truly interested in a guy imo she would never do this. I’m no expert in body language but I do think I know enough to know when someone is comfortable around someone or likes someone.

3After the formalities this was basically Rainbow’s expression throughout. Unhappy and quiet. And yes I know they smiled occasionally and acted cute but it is their jobs to do that. And really if someone who looked like that at his age kept giggling,stuttering and breathing heavily would you want to interact with them? I don’t think so.

2It’s important to note the posture difference. They are leaning forward and their posture is more relaxed. It’s a good sign to tell us that this is a more natural state. They are gorgeous girls but they don’t particularly have their best angles as they throw their heads back or forth while laughing. They are more relaxed and less concerned about keeping up the idol act.

Wait I guess I was wrong. They really seem happy here. Is it because of Tommy Christopher? Yes! Well it’s because the host was making fun of him. He asked for all of the members of Rainbow to follow the Visual Glow twitter account. So they agreed and Hanbyul said “They like you now. They didn’t really like you before but they do now. Make sure they don’t unfollow you.” And at that moment I died. Rainbow laughed too and honestly it was the biggest reaction I saw from them. It seemed real and not like their normal aegyo. It really speaks volumes about how they view him.

5This was the best part of his time there. What a fuck up. Okay because they know what a creep he is DSP/Rainbow decided to fuel his psychotic delusions so he will keep promoting Rainbow internationally and give him several exclusive Rainbow items if he gets a few very, very easy questions right. They never do this in ASC so it was basically for that reason. He’s asked to name 3 of Rainbow’s song. Super easy right? Especially for the best Rainbow fan ever. No. He actually managed to fuck up so hard it astounds me. So he starts of with A. Good job Tommy that’s correct! But then the idiot means to say Mach but says MA-CHI. Um what is that? I’m sorry but you aren’t a super fan like you claim if you can’t even get their singles right. They have probably said it multiple times in introduction and bts videos. It’s priceless to see Rainbow’s faces drop when they don’t understand what he is saying and Hanbyul even asks “What was that?” but no he presses on with his heavy breathing and after he says “Sweet Dream and To Me” he giggles to himself for a job well done. So god damn awkward OH MY GOD.

I wish I could stop there but no there’s another gem.

1Because he isn’t creepy enough he asks Rainbow to sing for him. If you know the song Sunshine, Rainbow has a line Go Jerry Go Jerry Go Jerry boy. He asks Rainbow to replace that with his name. Well that’s not scary at all! But that’s not all. No. Tommy Christopher starts stumbling over the words singing Sunshine and Rainbow are forced to sing Go Tommy Go Tommy Go Tommy boy with a smile on their face as if this is somehow a normal interaction.

I think the best tell that Rainbow hates him is when Tommy leaves how the atmosphere changes. The hosts stop making fun of the guest and everyone seems to be more relaxed. Rainbow stops doing a lot of aegyo. The first girl who translates for Visual Glow they even call cute. Where was Tommy Christopher’s compliment? Oh that’s right he didn’t get one.

Now she’s an adorable fan and one that Rainbow is lucky to have.

As well ASC had a recap episode a few weeks after and they practically showed everyone except Tommy Christopher talking to the idols they’ve had on the show. Why? Well we all know why. It’s because they didn’t want to advertise their show like that. It’s not a good image for ASC to put on freaks like him and even they wanted to forget it happened. I bet DSP asked them to get Tommy Christopher on the show tbh.

After this episode aired my friends and I weren’t the only people to notice how much of a creep Tommy was. From what I can remember he got a ton of hate and had a mini breakdown closing Visual Glow. But after a while he opened it again and was back to being his good old stalker self. Here he is trying to defend himself on the ASC show.

“Thinking that Ji Sook is lucky to have me as a fan, that I spoil her (and that your jealous of it haha) and thinking I am her best fan. Not making fun of my love and determination to win Ji Sook’s heart, but rather believe I can do it and ship SooMy ><

I’ll never understand why some of you are always like OMG when I respond to you though. I’m nothing special, but it is kinda cute. I’ll always be a expressive, appreciative, thankful open and honest person hehe.
After School Club was a nice beginning and helped lessen the wait, but it was also very limited as I couldn’t truly be myself on the show. The environment wasn’t entirely right because of the script I was given, the script Rainbow was given, the time of the show was early for me so I didn’t have much sleep, the show goes by so quick, ect. ect. nothing will beat the spazzy reaction Rainbow did when they noticed me during rehearsals because that was entirely off script and Rainbow got to be themselves without having to look at cards during the show.

One day I will meet Rainbow in person where I can be myself and Woo Ri will also be there. Remember she was missing on ASC so I have not truly met all of Rainbow just yet!! Sorry I write and ramble on alot I know I know.”

“nothing will beat the spazzy reaction Rainbow did when they noticed me during rehearsals because that was entirely off script ” Wow how unfortunate that was that he didn’t capture that moment. You might think I’m about to rip him apart for that but no I understand completely. You see just the other week I flew to Japan and had a wonderful time at a karaoke party with H!P, SMTown and Passpo. You won’t believe it when I tell you because it was the darnedest thing ever. All of the H!P girls were singing AKB songs! It was the greatest moment of my life but of course I couldn’t capture it, ugh GDI.

I’ve watched other episodes of ASC and there’s no excuse for the way he acted. I understand that someone meeting their favourite group is a big deal and they are probably going to be nervous and I expect that when I watch. However he was heavily breathing and sweating like he had just been in a marathon. Umm what even? Like I know he’s old but damn my 80 year old grandpa breathes better than that.  How did the cue cards impact it? Wouldn’t that help because they just have to be read? There’s no thinking with that. Even Rainbow who doesn’t know English could do it better than him. And he says the environment wasn’t right. Yeah okay, I wonder why. Maybe he should stop blaming the elements and just blame himself for being so awkward because the only problem there on that show was him.

You might think I’m being too harsh on the guy but nope. In fact he’s even worse on other sites. Just look at some of the tweets he makes. ugh

ugh3 ugh4 ugh1 ugh2Can you say delusional? And that’s not all. He used to have a thread on Visual Glow entitled The Soomy thread but it seems it was deleted as all mentions of Soomy. But you know what they say about the internet. So here’s a few things he wrote. This I believe is the original post in the Soomy thread if I recall correctly. I don’t know why he deleted it when he doesn’t care if people call him insane because he’s totally not but whatever here it is!

Why Ji Sook?

Someone asked me this, but I deleted the question by mistake.

When I first saw Jisook as a trainee under DSP around 2008 and rumored to be in Rainbow at the time, I thought she was cute and set my mind to her being my favorite member. Then I joined the Aurora 7 staff and was named the moderator of her section.

Upon Rainbow’s debut, Aurora 7 changed it’s name to Prismatic 7 and the Gossip Girl music video came out. It was after the music video I knew I made the right choice and since then I’ve been devoted to her. She’s never been budged from the top spot in my ranking. I’m entirely loyal to her throughout the years. Anyone who has known me for a long time has known how long I’ve been showing my love sololy for her. I’ve stuck through it all.

I care for all of Rainbow. They all mean alot to me and I love them all for different things. Just they don’t get that special feeling I have for Ji Sook. I love them more as beautiful sisters. My rank order has changed over the years. I think right now No Eul be 2nd, Yoon Hye 3rd and I got no clue after that LOL

I love Ji Sook for her personality. She’s cute, caring, creative, artistic, mischievous, always having fun, dorky, sincere, hardworking, sometimes a tomboy and more. She has a great bond with her family too. I love her handwriting too. I have horrible handwriting even though I love to write LOL I love her cooking and desserts too.

I would say my love for her has kept growing throughout the years. She has helped make me happy on a daily basis and got me out of some dark times. I owe so much to her as she’s really turned me around as a person.

Because of her doing I always believe whatever you set your mind to can happen and what is meant to be will happen. I’m usually a shy person and don’t want to try new things, but Ji Sook has the power to turn me around. Something no other girl or my family has ever had. Even my ex. I’ll do anything for her and she gives me confidence.

The happiness really started with her being fixed on SBS Youngstreet and has continued since.

After Gossip Girl/Not Your Girl promotions had ended, Rainbow went on a long hiatus. Prismatic 7 was dead until “A” came out. I was always alone, but Ji Sook got me through it with Youngstreet and Y-Star Top 10 News. I was a getting a bit spoiled with both programs being out at same time and involving her really LOL but yea that started the whole thing.

Over the years, I’ve given gifts to her and she has shared thankfulness back. It has really developed into a special bond between us.

I know I mean alot to her and since the days of Prismatic 7 all I’ve ever heard was ‘Tommy your such a different type of fanboy and Ji Sook is lucky to have you as a fan’ >_<

I do know Ji Sook considers me a precious fan of hers and that she got jealous over No Eul getting something from Visual Glow before her because well she knows I am creator. Part of the reason she supports our site so much is because of this too.

As for my username SookieBunnie, I originally made it back in March 2010 because Ji Sook always used bunnies as her Cyworld background. That is the original origin, but it has had several other instances that make the name it’s name even after it was created. The first tweet she sent to me was her laughing at a bunny gif I sent her. The first gift I ever gave her was a green plush bunny that I named after my username. So SookieBunnie has alot of history and meaning to it. Because it’s become so associated to the fandom I refuse to change it for that reason besides it’s history.

I feel like I already play the role of her supportive boyfriend by running a international fansite for her group, now only if she accept my heart and make it official LOL though no one would know because I’d remain quiet about it and act like I’ve always had prior ^^ I’m extremely protective of her and her family.

A few weeks ago I said Sookie will design our official logo you’ll see. Sure enough she now is going to do it. She asked for my e-mail. I dunno how she plans to e-mail me, but if it is her own e-mail, well I’m not giving it out for her own privacy.

One day Sookie will accept my heart you’ll see kekeke

I’m a extremely determined person and I go after my goals until they come true. Once my mind is set on something I’m basically a go getter and never give up until it happens.

This is why Visual Glow has been blessed alot of times in the past. When it comes to Rainbow, everytime I’ve set a goal I have seen it happen.

If Sunye in Wonder Girls can marry someone non-famous from Canada then why can’t I have something special with Ji Sook? 😛 We already have a special connection, so it can’t be counted out ^^

A little story. When I was my ex of almost 8 years before we were together, we were into roleplaying. We make up characters, pick a face, give them their own backstory and personalities, usually similar to our own. It was one day during a scene we were writing together that we started to feel emotions for each other and it blossomed into those nearly 8 years together. So I’ve had something like this happen before too LOL

Ji Sook and me are both expressive writers who like to share our emotions and thanks xD

Sometimes I feel like I’ve been doing this for the fandom for so long that bigger things are meant for me…

I am learning Korean for her and also know she enjoys foreign music and films…

Plus, we both like pizza (both of us can eat a whole one alone) and icecream!

I really don’t think anything can be counted out with my past, how I am in terms of determination, our already special connection, ect. ect.

I do know I’m her ultimate fanboy and can not be topped. Especially after so many years and after all I’ve done heh.

He really thinks he is the one for Jisook. I can’t. It’s so disgusting. Here’s my rebuttal to that delusional piece of shit.

Why Tommy Christopher?

  • Because’s he rich.

Oh wait no he isn’t. As far as I know he has a job a Kmart or some minimum wage job. I’m pretty sure because he said he doesn’t have a degree and can’t afford a plane ticket. Now I’m not here to shit on people who work really hard and get paid nothing for it, I’m here to shit on Tommy Christopher who is delusional and thinks he has a chance with Jisook so please don’t take this the wrong way. If a girl had a choice between someone who was rich and not rich they will often go for the richer person. Of course money makes a guy attractive to a girl. That’s shallow but money makes people happy because they can buy what they want and there’s no stress involved. No one would object to their significant other getting a 100k raise.

So why should a girl as beautiful as Jisook settle for a lowly Kmart employee? She can do much better. Girls want doctors, lawyers, and engineers. People who can make a lot of money and treat them all of the time, not a person who makes
minimum wage and struggles to live.

  • Because he’s attractive.
BRK7lF0CAAEwrxa.png largeOne of these things is not like the others, One of these things just doesn’t belong, Can you tell which thing is not like the others By the time I finish my song?

Again nope. Okay he’s not deformed or Benedict Cumberbatch but that’s not exactly a win. He has beady, Aika eyes and a ugly protruding nose that eats his face. And remember he is working his angles to look cute here. He probably looks like a cave troll irl. He looks constantly greasy and like he sniffs women’s underwear while giggling to himself like he did on ASC. Plus even though he says everyone says he looks younger than he is in a desperate attempt to fit in with other Kpop fans, he looks 40+. I don’t know if Jisook has daddy issues but looking old is probably a turn off for most girls and yeah I’ll be the first to say that there are hot guys who are older/look older but it sure isn’t him.

Jisook is an idol who is surrounded by beautiful, beautiful guys(girls? idk she could be gay too i’m not counting that out) with pretty faces and amazing bodies but no she wants to fuck some average guy. Yeah right. This right here is enough to confirm that he is completely crazy or maybe blind. How he has enough good taste to recognize how good looking Jisook is and not enough to see how bad looking he is, well it’s totally beyond me.

  • Because he’s cool.

Okay I understand that being cool can do a lot for a girl. Look at GD and TOP. They are cocky and can put on the ugliest shit ever and make it work for them. But Tommy Christopher? I just said that he looks like he sniffs women’s underwear while giggling to himself like he did on ASC. That tells you what kind of person I think he is. A total loser.

  • Because of his amazing personality.

  • Because they have lots in common.

No. They are two different people who have different careers and paths in life. She’s an idol. How can he relate to that? To know what she deals with? He knows what she says she likes. So what? They’ve never met before and only have talked together because she was forced to because of Rainbow’s activities. It’s also not valid if he approaches her and they end up talking because she wants to keep her good image. And you know what? They can’t even have a conversation because they speak two different languages. It is crazy how Tommy thinks this is what Jisook would truly want. To not understand the love of her life. But I guess if he understood that he would have to admit that maybe just maybe Jisook would have no interest in fucking and marrying a loser who should be locked in a psych ward for life.

  • Because he’s talented.

Sorry, being a great stalker does not qualify. I meant things like knowing multiple languages, being good at dancing, singing, rapping, playing instruments, writing, composing, etc. Hey aren’t those things idols do? Why yes I think they are. But no Jisook would not be attracted to them and content with gorgeous, talented boys who speak her own language and can relate to her, she needs Tommy Christopher.

  • Because he’s a huge fan.gurl no

No one cares. But the nerve of him. He is seriously so disgusting and there’s nothing I hate more than a person who claims they are the number one fan of something and parade it around like they deserve some sort of fucking award. People like that should be burned alive and I doubt they even care about what they stan. Like there’s this fan of jpop and fuck, she changes her favourite group every month or so to whatever she thinks will make her better than everyone else. That’s not loving something that’s just being pathetic and desperate for attention. But oops I got off topic slightly.

Adding this picture mostly because of the Ship Soomy. lol What even? I would be embarrassed to write that. I don’t even know what to make of that because it’s probably the single most pathetic thing I’ve ever come across in my life. It’s akin to those people who give themselves nicknames and try to make slang happen. He is a grown ass man trying to get teenagers to ship him with Jisook to support his delusions. Nobody even ships people besides 12 year old girls wanting to see two guys fuck. And who ships themselves with someone in a serious manner? I want to set that disgusting ship to sea and sink it quicker than the Titanic. I just can’t get over his audacity to think that he is good enough for Jisook when not even an average woman would want him.

“If Sunye in Wonder Girls can marry someone non-famous from Canada then why can’t I have something special with Ji Sook?”

Oh seriously fuck off.

Okay yes Sunye got married to someone she met but he was far from am ugly loser with a shitty job who gets asked if he’s autistic and he was no delusional fan either who lives for Rainbow to say “We know when his name was mentioned” and their fake excitement. Sunye’s husband is attractive, he comes from a rich family. That’s not all, I can’t find the article exactly but I know that he’s very smart with a good education and I think he knows several languages. Plus he spends his life doing missionary work. he’s basically as close to perfect as you can get and someone girls would fight over to be with. Tommy Christopher’s only perk is that he’s alive.

See contrary to what Tommy Christopher believes, how normal relationship’s work is the guy and the girl have a mutual liking. The guy does not pick out the girl and she must accept because he really, really likes her and HE feels a “special” connection.

Which one would you rather be with?

sexy81032043Even though the James picture is blurry he is way more attractive than Tommy Christopher. And that’s just how he looks. We aren’t counting anything else. But no, Tommy Christopher thinks he’s comparable to James. What a joke. How is he not ashamed? I’m even getting tired of saying he’s pathetic because I’ve been saying it too much. I mean he’s not even the most fuckable out of these two people, how would he even compete with ten people let alone hundreds of thousands? But nooo Jisook would totally want him even though she’s spoiled for choice.

But I guess I’m just a jealous hater.

“I would like to send a special thank you to the following fans that I follow and talk to on Twitter.

You guys are all the best. Always supporting me. Always believing in me. Knowing I am not what some like to claim out of jealously and not knowing me well. Helping me when I need it the most and putting up with me.”

“I’m a new owner of Visual Glow now. The old Tommy who let his emotions get the best of him, who was too reactive and didn’t think straight during those reactions is no more. After my last episode of haters getting to me, I’ve realized there is more good then bad, especially after Rainbow’s reaction on Sound K and promoters starting to reach out to me. I have more love then I do hate.

As Rainbow and our site become more known, the hate will just grow of course, but it will never be defeated by the love. My love is a lie if I let them get to me. Especially since so many of them are younger then me, jealous and do not know me well or experience what we do to know. Too many rely on me in both Rainbow themselves and fans. I have alot of responsibility on my hands and I must hold up to it. Plus, me not being my energetic positive self is not good for anyone. Me, Rainbow, my staff, my friends, fans, ect. ect. I will do my best to fight for this fandom and remain my regular myself. I will not let negative influences be in my way or control me and my behavior anymore. Can not afford to let them.”

I don’t even know where to start with this. There’s just so much wrong with it.

“Especially since so many of them are younger then me, jealous and do not know me well or experience what we do to know.”

Um no. They are actually quite smart because some of them petitioned to get him restrained from Jisook. Meanwhile he is the one telling people to ship Soomy. He shouldn’t state that younger people don’t know better and are stupid if he’s almost 30 years old and way more immature than them.

And the fact that he thinks people are jealous of him kills me. I don’t think most people want to be known as a stalker of their favourite group and I also don’t think people want to be that person who harasses a group until they are forced to pay attention to him to keep a good image. For someone who says he is so mature, Tommy Christopher acts awfully immature. Jealousy is something your mother tells you people are when you are 6 and she wants to spare your feelings. Jealousy would be hating Tommy Christopher for talking to Rainbow. Jealousy is not just hating Tommy Christopher because he’s a creep and rightfully deserves it because of his actions. That fails to be jealousy because you are not envious of that person. To be jealous of just Tommy Christopher would mean that we are envious of his god-like beauty or his fabulous life as a rich socialite which lol no one is because it doesn’t fucking exist.

It’s funny that he thinks everyone is jealous of his success but fails to realize that no one cares about the other people that appeared on the ASC show. It’s a flaw in his logic but he thinks he can seduce Jisook so I’ll cut him some slack. He obviously just chooses to believe what suits him best regardless of if it’s reality or not. It’s not his connections or perks that people care about it’s the fact that he’s a psychotic freak. When people start insulting the Visual Glow staff as much as they do him I’ll see his side but we all know that it only happens to him because other staff members don’t give people a reason to hate them.

I personally don’t think hate is such a bad thing. Sometimes being hated is good. Or more like hate is deserved. Hate can be a way to tell you that you are doing something people don’t like. Whether you choose to do something about that and change yourself is up to you. But a lot of times I don’t think hate is unfounded especially when we are talking about IRL people and not idols. I think if you are a person like Tommy Christopher and gets a lot of hate it’s understandable. But he is too idiotic to realize or doesn’t want to accept that he is wrong and being a creep so he place the fault on everyone who judges him.

That’s fine, it’s perfectly his right to do so but the thing Tommy Christopher fails to get is that he can change how he thinks but reality is reality and until he changes he will always be that pathetic creepy guy to everyone including Rainbow and Jisook. Plus the longer he keeps this up the more people will view him as that person and the more he is damaging his own image. In fact I’m not even sure it can be saved now. Tommy Christopher thinks all of these people are against him but really it is only him hurting himself and Rainbow’s image and people are just trying to help him by telling him what a freak he is.

I feel so bad for Rainbow. They have this sad person attached to their name and that if you are a fan of Rainbow you will come in contact with him at some point. Tommy Christopher thinks that because Rainbow responds to him on shows and because they know of him and do aegyo means that they genuinely love him. I mean what does he expect them to do? Say that they hate him if they do? Would Tommy Christopher believe me if I said I love him? Because that would be a lie. I would hope not but you never know. How can he take Rainbow liking him as fact but ignore that they are paid to do this and have no other options?

It’s Rainbow’s job to do this. Whether they like to or not is something that they aren’t allowed to discuss. I notice that Rainbow tries very hard to keep all of their fans happy. Their fans support them and make them who they are. Without the fans they wouldn’t exist. They can’t keep making money or sing and dance if they don’t keep their fans happy. They aren’t allowed to pick and choose who they want to be their fans. They just have to grin and bear it even if all of their fans are psychos.

“For the last few weeks I have great conversations with a promoter. What originally started off as talking about bringing Rainbow to a K-Pop event grew into something larger. I’m happy for my conversations with them. They understand fans like myself really well. My passion, what I want to do, what type of fan I am, my love and dedication, my struggles with some rude fans, my love for Jisook, ect. ect. they just get me entirely and it’s been real nice to sit down and talk to them. I’ve had nice fans more so then rude ones over the years, but not many could quiet understand me and my motives and goals. Only a select few, so it was nice to find someone like them to talk to. They told me it’s amazing all I’ve achieved despite the language barrier.”

Of course businesses will support him. They will say they understand him perfectly and stress that he is not psychotic. Especially DSP. It’s great that Kpop companies will work with fans but it’s only because they understand that foreign fans are important and can be quite lucrative. Tommy Christopher owns Visual Glow and gives Rainbow free press so of course DSP(and Rainbow) wants to please him. Visual Glow is really the only fansite I can think of when it comes to Rainbow now. DSP cares about those fans, why? Well obviously because of money. That’s right. Fans are nothing but money makers to company. So as long as you are spending money they don’t care what you are like. If Visual Glow was shut down that would be very bad for DSP. Rainbow fans wouldn’t have any idea about what Rainbow was doing, etc. They might lose interest and DSP would lose money if these fans didn’t keep supporting them.

If Visual Glow was to cease existing it would be problematic for DSP and like I said they could lose money. Since they care about money more than anything they don’t care about Rainbow’s happiness. It’s as simple as that. And it can’t even be questioned because look at DSP’s track record. The successful acts leave the company and Kara tried to but were scared of being JYJed imo. I know how hard Kara suffered going back and forth between Japan and Korea and I don’t know how anyone can say DSP cares about their artists after that. There is working extremely hard and then there’s abuse. Plus Kara is DSP’s only big group and if they treated them like that then I don’t even want to see how they’d treat a smaller group like Rainbow. DSP doesn’t care if Rainbow has to entertain a few delusional fans who think they are in love.

I don’t have a problem which Tommy Christopher loving Jisook. I think loving someone or having a crush(which is probably the more appropriate term for this case) is a good thing. The world is terrible and you might as well make yourself happy. Loving someone can feel so great and motivate you to become a better person. There’s nothing wrong with that and if someone makes you more positive it certainly can’t be bad.

I don’t exactly know how to describe love properly but I think loving someone whether platonically or romantically is sheer happiness. It’s like when you see that person you couldn’t be happier and no matter what they do every little thing about them attracts you, enchants you. I don’t know what separates this from liking someone. Maybe a feeling of an intense connection? A belonging to that person? Does that makes sense?

Like you feel so connected to that person that when you are apart from them you can’t stop thinking about them because it not only feels like you have lost that person but a part of yourself. And there’s nothing you want more to be reunited because that person makes you so happy. That’s what I think love is but I guess you can define it however.

I couldn’t care less if someone dreams about marrying someone and spend the rest of their lives with that person or dreams about fucking someone all day and masturbates to the idea of it. It’s okay to do that as long as you see it for what it is and do not project your feelings on that person. Fair enough if you know the person you like and think they might like you back but we are talking about Tommy Christopher and an idol.

I do think it’s possible to love someone you’ve never met and when I think about it I can’t really deny that idol fans feel love towards their idols. You do have your casual fans but I know people who will literally spend 6 hours+++ stalking and talking about the person they like. I can’t say that what the feel isn’t love because to be honest I’ve seen couples less dedicated to each other than fans to their idols.

But usually fans will realize that this kind of love is one sided and they also realize the best thing that can happen to them is that they see their oppas at a fansigning. Sure they might dream about it before it happens and think that they will be different. They might think that they will attract him because of the bond they feel and he will somehow secretly signal his love right then and there. But we all know that when they get there that they’ll be met will the cold harsh reality that they are just a fan, a nobody to their love and that person they adored might even ignore/hate them.

This is why when you love an idol it should be entirely selfless. When you are expecting something to come out of it you are setting that relationship up for failure(unless you are hot girl and want to fuck 2pm or get choked by Seungri oppar that is)because nothing is going to happen and that relationship is going absolutely nowhere. That person you love is a figment of your imagination and the thoughts and ideas you impress on whoever they like.

Tommy Christopher’s disregard for this frankly disgusts me. It’s persistent and gross. The way he phrases things sounds like he seriously believes that one day if he tries hard enough, Jisook will love him. This is disregarding that Jisook is a person with ideas of her own and only taking into consideration what Tommy Christopher desires which is so not okay. If he actually cared about Jisook wanted he would back off and stop being a fan of Rainbow so he wouldn’t taint them. But again the problem with this is Tommy helps promote Rainbow so Rainbow needs him. I’m sure he knows this too which makes it even more cringeworthy because again Jisook has to be nice to him and can’t tell him to go away. It’s essentially a very smart way to trap Rainbow into paying attention to him. He became important and dedicated to get what he wanted.

Without Visual Glow he would be a nobody. Tommy Christopher works hard on Visual Glow because he wants to get noticed by Rainbow so he get more points from Jisook. If he wanted a true love from Jisook why should he have to work so hard running her pr unit? It’s ridiculous. By that logic she would hate him if he gave it up and that’s not love. That’s a pathetic attempt at trying to force someone to love him by impressing her because if she really wanted to get to know him she would have made the effort. AND NO SENDING GIFTS TO HER AND CALLING IT A SPECIAL BOND YOU SHARE DOES NOT FUCKING COUNT.

I’ve been rambling on for long enough so I’ll shut up soon but something about this is so horrific and off. He can want what he wants but to deny the reality of the situation is what scares me. I feel like if he had the opportunity he’d try to get her to love him no matter what. I don’t know if any of you like myself are 80 years old and watch old movies but I do and it seriously reminds of one of my favourite movies, The Collector(which is based on the novel). What happens is that this guy chloroforms this beautiful girl and locks her in a room because he is in love with her and wants her to fall in love with him but obviously she doesn’t want to because he’s a freak and you can’t force a woman to love you. This sounds exactly like something Tommy Christopher would do, he’s exactly like that guy in every way except that Terrance Stamp is attractive. I’m seriously scared for Jisook. Girl get yourself a restraining order against him.

  1. Its more creepy that you digged up all this info via social network… whos the creep now? Atleast he showed who he is, unlike you hiding behind this…

      • Im just sticking up to my friend, my identity is not so important and why would you care? You care more about picking on people who creep the life out of you. What shame of a life you live. Talk shit all you want about me, but in the end of the day youre the one who lives on rock bottom. Wasting time when you could be something better than this.

      • If you are going to criticize me for being anon then you should not be an anonymous coward to prove your point. It’s hypocritical and I’m not going to take what you are saying seriously. I don’t care if you called me an asshole on anon if you didn’t address the anonymous part but you did so don’t proceed to get angry at me for doing the same thing that you are doing. “Wasting time when you could be something better than this.” Why did you waste your time even commenting on my site? If you read my article and even responded to it then I think my time was well worth it. Thank you for making it so.

      • You wasted your time on doing this, why? Don’t you have something more productive to do? Jisook recently followed him on Twitter all by herself when he didn’t even ask her to. Why would she put herself in a position of where he can talk to her if she was so scared of him? I believe her sister even talks to and follows him on Twitter. No Eul responds to him all the time as well and uses his art as her Twitter photos. Her last few photos. Why don’t you reveal who runs this blog instead of hide without a face and make up false accusations. Your judgement of both him and Rainbow are wrong.

      • No I didn’t waste my time. You read it and responded to it which made it all worth it. However if no one comments or ever reads my blog, that’s when I have wasted my time.

        “Jisook recently followed him on Twitter all by herself when he didn’t even ask her to. Why would she put herself in a position of where he can talk to her if she was so scared of him? ” She’s an idol. They fake emotions, it’s their job and they have no say. Of course Jisook wants to be good to her fans because that’s how she’s makes money. She’s not going to tell anyone that she hates them otherwise she’s be broke and not successful. Tommy is important because he runs Visual Glow. Of course DSP and Rainbow does not want to get him upset. Ever watch ASC? They didn’t have special giveaways like Tommy had. It was the company or Rainbow’s decision to do that so they keep Tommy happy.

        If I’m so wrong why even waste your time~ arguing with me?

  2. Agreed with the others. Making a whole essay to shit on someone’s life is just.. really sad. This is completely over-analytical and biased by your negative feelings causing huge misconceptions about him, Rainbow, and ASC. You don’t know how anyone really feels so please stop putting false ideas in people’s heads.

    • It’s all on the internet. I didn’t make this up. I quoted Tommy Christopher directly. How is it false? You might know Tommy but you don’t know Rainbow or ASC either so please don’t speak for them.

  3. Wow! This is one long essay. How could you waste so much time stalking someone who actually does alot of good things for fans? I don’t think your smear campaign is worth the time fellow. Way to twist a bunch of things around! Lighten up a bit.

  4. This article(?) if you would like to call it that is funny. You perceive both the owner and Rainbow wrongly, have obviously not seen After School Club enough and have no idea how television works. I have seen firsthand how many fans respect and look up to the owner of Visual Glow. You are just one of a small handful that does not. The owner does more good then you ever will. There are just so many inconsistencies written here to try to slander someone’s reputation and pursue others to believe your own beliefs.

    • I have a good idea of how ASC and television works. It’s always scripted and sometimes they take too much time and make people rush. Why didn’t I insult any of the other guests on that episode? Because they weren’t creepy and that’s that. If everyone respects him then who cares about my opinion? I just wonder why he deleted certain things if everyone adores him. I’m wondering if more people criticized him but that’s not possible right because he only has like 4 “haters”.

  5. For someone who says they love the fansite, you sure seem to have no respect for the hand that feeds you. Like another fan had said, Jisook followed him on Twitter last week. She was already following Visual Glow’s Twitter, so why would she bother to follow him if she was so wary of him? It’s not like she had to follow him for required fanservice. The girl even asked for his e-mail address before.

    This is nothing more then a personal attack on someone. You say they would be a nobody if not for their site, but guess what? You can say that about anyone known for anything, so that does not hold up. If you had seen the other guests tweets during rehearsal as it had happened, you would of seen his story about Rainbow’s reaction was true. For someone who stalked information on a person, you left out all the positives. Way to dig for information. It is also illegal to record rehearsals per Arirang’s rules.

    It’s so easy to manipulate and turn something into a entire different scenario. You want to believe negatively of him, so you see things in a negative light and paint a bad picture of them.

    You are also being way overly dramatic in your statements. Leave this person alone as they are just having a little fun that you take way too personal and that really harms no one. I know for a fact that they care deeply for Rainbow and would never put them in a bad situation. There alot of things that Visual Glow staff sees and does that we as fans can not.

    Clearly you misunderstand this person and do not realize how much of a following they truly have. Even if a bunch of us are generally quiet there is alot of respect for him. It looks like some of us have stepped forward now. Alot of fans, even those who aren’t Rainbow fans, but watch ASC weekly, loved him on the program too.

    You too are a fan of idols and run your own blog about them. That person is closer to a particular group then you ever will be with one. In retrospect that means they have achieved more then you ever have. How about spending your time more productively instead of ripping apart someone who does good?

    • Wrong. I have plenty of respect for the work he does but none for the person who he is. Just as I can enjoy and admire Roman Polanski’s films but hate him because he’s a disgusting creep.

      “Like another fan had said, Jisook followed him on Twitter last week. She was already following Visual Glow’s Twitter, so why would she bother to follow him if she was so wary of him? It’s not like she had to follow him for required fanservice. The girl even asked for his e-mail address before.” Fanservice. Tommy is a fan they should be really nice to because of who he is. They need Tommy to promote Rainbow.

      “You say they would be a nobody if not for their site, but guess what? You can say that about anyone known for anything, so that does not hold up.” Yes it does. My point is that because he runs a fansite, Rainbow tolerates him. If he didn’t run it he could see if Rainbow truly liked him because he wouldn’t be special.

      “It’s so easy to manipulate and turn something into a entire different scenario. You want to believe negatively of him, so you see things in a negative light and paint a bad picture of them.” And you are desperate to make him into a radiant angel. You ignore the things he has wrote(NOT ME MAKING UP STUFF BTW ACTUAL THINGS HE HAS SAID)because you want to see him as only good. So it’s no different. A real person has both bad and good qualities jsyk.

      “You are also being way overly dramatic in your statements.” So are you. Stalking implies that I’m obsessed with Tommy Christopher. That’s not the case. Writing one article and googling a couple of public things isn’t stalking. Stalking is more so what Tommy Christopher does to Jisook. 🙂

      “Leave this person alone as they are just having a little fun that you take way too personal and that really harms no one.” Oh but it does. It harms Rainbow. They have to put up with his bullshit. Also it’s not cool to pretend that a girl would love you no matter what when she doesn’t even know you. There’s a difference between saying ” I’d wish ______ would like me.” and “______ would like me if they knew me. They would HAVE to because I care so much about them.” The first is normal, the second is delusional and the way he phrases things. It’s creepy.

      “You too are a fan of idols and run your own blog about them. That person is closer to a particular group then you ever will be with one. In retrospect that means they have achieved more then you ever have. How about spending your time more productively instead of ripping apart someone who does good?” Wow is that elitism coming through there? What does how “close” he is with a certain group have to do with anything. It certainly doesn’t mean he’s any better than the rest of us or a bigger fan. And close? I don’t think so. Rainbow’s friends and family and boyfriends are close with them. I doubt Tommy Christopher is there when one of the girls has a bad day and comforts them. Or celebrates their birthday and eats cake with them. He’s just some guy behind a computer who hasn’t ever met them. So yes I have achieved just as much as him.

      “How about spending your time more productively instead of ripping apart someone who does good?”
      How about you spend your time more productively instead of reading and commenting on my article and trying to make me feel bad? Don’t be a disgusting hypocrite.

  6. I found this after a friend passed it onto me. It seems to be making rounds despite being a few months old?

    My comments. Well, if anything is scary I find it rather alarming how much time you put into writing this.

    According to you, you wrote this because you feel that they got off lightly and their behavior makes any hate they receive justified? So many things are wrong with those sentences.

    At least Tommy is straightforward and never hides. Anyone that public is going to receive hate more then the rest of their staff. Especially since they are the owner. I wouldn’t suspect him to comment on this page since he says he doesn’t care about haters and the posters above say one of the members follow him. I’m sure he doesn’t want them seeing this page.

    From the looks of it some of the Visual Glow staff have posted here. I guess they aren’t afraid of receiving any backlash. I support them fully. Now to go get some popcorn.

    • So much time? An hour or two out of 701265+ hours? Yeah so much time!!!!

      I find it alarming that you proceeded to come here and then read something so long and the took time to respond to it.

      “Anyone that public is going to receive hate more then the rest of their staff.” Wrong. I’ve never had anything bad to say about the staff of some other fan forums/fan resources. For example that girl on the Rainbow ASC show is also part of the Visual Glow staff and I thought she was super adorable. Why the difference? THEIR ACTIONS DIDN’T DESERVE IT. So why would I care? I don’t have to worry about them doing some crazy shit should they meet their idols because they aren’t crazy. I didn’t randomly pick out Tommy Christopher. He caught my attention because he’s a delusional freak.

      “I wouldn’t suspect him to comment on this page since he says he doesn’t care about haters and the posters above say one of the members follow him. I’m sure he doesn’t want them seeing this page.” Oh trust me Rainbow isn’t going to take the time to google him so don’t worry. They’ll never find it. And why does it even matter that much if apparently I’ve got it all wrong?

  7. You’ve used his name a little too much in this write up. You spent way too much time on this in general. Despite what you may think of him and Rainbow, they do share something with one another whether you want to admit it or not. Maybe he should lay low a little more, but that doesn’t make him a horrible person as you try to perceive him to be. But, again, it is hard for him to lay low when he has to make things happen. Apples and oranges. He really hasn’t done anything that harms anyone. Cut him some slack. He’s been doing this for them since the beginning and making them happy seems to be what he is all about. I’d be envious as well to have something like they do.

    • “You’ve used his name a little too much in this write up.”
      Yeah probably. lmao It does have a nice ring to it.

      ” You spent way too much time on this in general.” Nope because people are reading and commenting so it was worth my time to write. Thank you for the reassurance.

      ” Maybe he should lay low a little more” No. I wish he wouldn’t. All that means is that you want him to hide his opinions so the public can’t read them. Then he can keep all of the crazy within the community of Visual Glow so only the asslickers of Tommy Christopher could see it and keep it well hidden so the world doesn’t think bad of him.

  8. First of all, you said that ASC is a piece of shit but somehow you seem to like watching it considering that you’ve watch quite a number of episodes.

    Secondly, you judge/criticises girls and claims that they always find guys who are more attractive or rich. Not all girls are as shallow as that and I believe a true RainNous would not believe or say that Jisook or any of the other members are. No one can really deny it when love comes be it whether they’re rich or poor. From the way I see it, that’s just you judging others without really knowing that person. Have you met him in person, no. You just said all this based on what you know through the internet and we all know that the internet is contagious and not a hundred percent trustworthy. I have not met him in person myself too. But who gave you the right to judge others.

    Hard breathing doesn’t mean anything. I know people that breathes hard as well, sometimes it’s stress, sometimes it’s health problems and you based on that to say that other people are creepy? That’s just judgmental.

    Delusional? Most fans dream about being with their idol and I believe you and I do as well. But how do you know that those things won’t actually happen. Be it just 1% or even 0.00001%, it’s still chance and it might still happen.

    I don’t know you nor have I seen you before but I don’t think that you are that attractive to say that others are ugly. We are all people and we all have our flaws. Nobody is perfect and therefore who is to say who is better or worse than the other. Who is to judge other people when they themselves are not perfect.

    And then there’s the language barrier that you mentioned. If one person can only know one language, then of course language barrier is a big issue. But no. There are many people in this world that knows more than one language. You don’t know a language, you learn. It’s not impossible to learn a language. Therefore, language barrier isn’t really an issue there.

    Like I’ve said, you don’t know who Tommy is. He might have some amazing secret talent that you do not know about.

    You went on to say about no.1 fan whatever and about this fan who change favorites every month or so. You might have went off topic but Tommy has been supporting Rainbow especially Jisook even before they even debut and up until now, in his heart, they’re still in first place. if that does not qualify to be the number one fan, i don’t know what does.

    Try liking someone for 5 years before you give all this shit talk. Bottom talk, you’re just someone that does not know another person well enough to judge them. Now, don’t get this the wrong way, I respect you for all the effort you put into writing this essay and voicing out your own opinion, but what I do not understand is the fact that you bash others based on what might not be true and to do it so publicly is beyond me.

    Pardon my sentence structure and paragraphic errors and I appreciate it if you took the time to read and think about it. However I understand fully if you still think that you are right as there is no right or wrong here. We’re just voicing out our opinions that’s all.

    • I agree, you should not judge all girls as money and looks chasers. For what I’ve read in Jisook’s profile on Visual Glow, her father runs a butcher shop. I think I heard Tommy has said her sister works at a coffee shop too. Not exactly top of the line rich jobs, which means Jisook hasn’t grown up with that lifestyle. You should not judge all girls this way. For some girls, care and personality comes first and foremost. I’ve always gotten the vibe from Rainbow that they are down to earth girls and aren’t those types. Tommy does a good job at showing both of these traits.

      Though I always been quiet, I’ve known Tommy for a very long time. I don’t really speak to him, but I been a fan of his since Prismatic 7. He has alot of fans actually. Just like me they are all quiet and just appreciate what he provides for us.

      Tommy’s been doing this for the girls for 5 years now. He does everything he can to make sure both the girls and us are happy. I know he doesn’t really look to be paid back for it. Is he happy when he receives something? Of course, who wouldn’t be? But, I do not think it is a requirement of his. He just wants Rainbow to be known that they are loved and supported. He’s gone to great lengths for all of us and works really hard. He’s made alot of sacrifices for us. We all helped get Rainbow on After School Club to help him live his dream of meeting them. He deserved it after so long.

      I also know his feelings for Jisook in particular were developed over a period of time. True Rainnous know how Rainbow has changed our lives and helped us get out of hard times. My understanding is Jisook helped him get over alot of things and that turned into the feelings he has for her now. There is nothing wrong with that. Alot of time love develops over a powerful influence like that. Honestly, from when he shown it in Prismatic 7 up until now I could see how it slowly progressed. 5 years is a long time. Is Tommy a bit expressive and emotional? Obviously. But, he means well by it and is really respectful. You are just reading him the wrong way. I am sure true Rainnous can understand how he could possibly develop those feelings because they themselves have had that influence happen to them with Rainbow. The difference is he can actually act on them because Rainbow does know him. Considering their connection, I don’t think it is entirely delusional if he can get over some challenges.

      I also think Tommy does hold a special place in Jisook’s heart. She’s known him as a fan for a very long time now. The other fans noted how she followed him. Looking at her followers, she only follows those who are dear to her and her co-workers. Also Rainbow’s natural reaction on Arirang Sound K and how quickly she took the gift from him without hesitance in the fancam on his YouTube are giveaways. You can’t read people off one episode. After School Club goes by pretty quick, so it is hard to be yourself on it.

    • “First of all, you said that ASC is a piece of shit but somehow you seem to like watching it considering that you’ve watch quite a number of episodes.”

      Yeah I endure it for the idols. It is a piece of shit.

      “Secondly, you judge/criticises girls and claims that they always find guys who are more attractive or rich. Not all girls are as shallow as that and I believe a true RainNous would not believe or say that Jisook or any of the other members are.”

      Didn’t say they were but again you don’t know whether they are or not either. They are idols and they only project the image we want to see. The thing is Tommy Christopher has no valid reason why Jisook would like him only that he likes her and wants it to happen. And he compared himself to James who was as he puts it “someone non-famous” while ignoring that James is smart, kind-hearted, rich and good looking(as well as being korean) which maybe had something to do with why Sunye liked him.

      “You just said all this based on what you know through the internet and we all know that the internet is contagious and not a hundred percent trustworthy.”

      So has Rainbow. lol Why would they want to meet him after having a bad impression of him online?

      “Hard breathing doesn’t mean anything.”

      Yes it does. When two people(or a person and hand) are very much in love they have sex. Their breathing will get harder because they are excited and obviously there’s physical activity going on.

      “Delusional? Most fans dream about being with their idol and I believe you and I do as well. But how do you know that those things won’t actually happen. Be it just 1% or even 0.00001%, it’s still chance and it might still happen.”

      It’s not delusional to dream about being with your idol as long as you admit it won’t happen. And it certainly won’t happen if you aren’t attractive(and most likely Korean/Asian). Thinking that it will certainly happen is being delusional.

      “I don’t know you nor have I seen you before but I don’t think that you are that attractive to say that others are ugly. We are all people and we all have our flaws. Nobody is perfect and therefore who is to say who is better or worse than the other. Who is to judge other people when they themselves are not perfect.”

      It has nothing to do with being attractive or not. It’s called having eyesight and being able to judge based upon what you see visually. I wouldn’t have even brought it up if he didn’t think he was good enough for a beauty like Jisook who is visually perfect with a killer body.

      You can’t deny that looks are very important. People wouldn’t stan idols if they were ugly(ignore BAP please). How many fat and ugly girl groups do you see that are popular?

      And you don’t need visual attraction to fall in love? lmao Oh okay then. People don’t have sex with people that they find repulsive.

      “And then there’s the language barrier that you mentioned. If one person can only know one language, then of course language barrier is a big issue. But no. There are many people in this world that knows more than one language. You don’t know a language, you learn. It’s not impossible to learn a language. Therefore, language barrier isn’t really an issue there.”

      Yeah but if you don’t know the language you can’t communicate. We’ve already made it clear that Tommy isn’t a looker so if he can’t speak to her he’s fucked(or maybe in his case it’s a good thing). Relationships should be based on commonalities. You like idols, I like idols. You like opera, I like opera. You like makeup, I like makeup. If you don’t feel that bond with someone then you won’t want to be with them BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING IN COMMON. It’s different if you just want to have sex with someone because that bond isn’t required.How do you get to know someone without speaking to them?

      It’s different if someone was from Japan and learned English and met an American and fell in love because they already knew that language. You would have to have a great lust for someone in order to learn a language right when you met them. And that’s lust because you can’t know that person without ever speaking to them.

      “Like I’ve said, you don’t know who Tommy is. He might have some amazing secret talent that you do not know about.”

      Even if he gave great head it wouldn’t be worth it.

      “You went on to say about no.1 fan whatever and about this fan who change favorites every month or so. You might have went off topic but Tommy has been supporting Rainbow especially Jisook even before they even debut and up until now, in his heart, they’re still in first place. if that does not qualify to be the number one fan, i don’t know what does.”

      Yes I went off-topic, oops I apologize but my point was there shouldn’t be any number one fan. It’s only an excuse to earn a title and feel like you deserve more. If you like someone you shouldn’t be so desperate to show it off to appear better than others. The closest example that I can think of is this: If you are rich you buy what you like. But if aren’t and wanted to appear like you were you’d probably buy an expensive item and want to show that off to appear rich and like you are better than others.

      “Try liking someone for 5 years before you give all this shit talk”

      Try 10 years+. Nice try being an elitist, too bad it failed. 🙂

      “However I understand fully if you still think that you are right as there is no right or wrong here. We’re just voicing out our opinions that’s all.”

      Yeah it’s all just opinions so you can think what you want and I will too.

    • He said he was looking at a course or something last I checked but I wrote this a while ago and don’t stalk him so I wouldn’t know.

      But that implied that he didn’t know Korean at the time. Studying/knowing are two very different things.

  9. The main thing that bothers me about this entire post is that you spent alot of time on it. That and you really do not know Tommy and all that he has done. He’s not the control freak you try to make him out to be. Trap them and knowing he can take advantage of them? Really? Lock someone away? Overly dramatic. Wishing someone that has done so much for everyone to bow gracefully out of a fandom is a bad thing. You barely know the guy or what he stands for.

    Also way to go insulting someone’s looks. I bet you aren’t any better. Beauty is also held differently in Korea.

    • “Beauty is also held differently in Korea.”

      Yeah that’s why most Korean people get their faces get cut up because people aren’t superficial there and they love ugly people.

  10. Are you trying to knock someone down a peg to your level to feel better about yourself? It’s easy to screencap someone when they are feeling heated by haters and use it against them. That isn’t a good representation of a person’s real character. It’s a in the moment reaction.

  11. Dang you visual glow fools got a lotta time on your hands. Who is gonna write all those delusional shipping fanfics if you all are too busy replying to this post?

    • Well excuse us for trying to defend out friend who has been so negatively targeted by this absurd article. Your poor excuse for an insult tells me that you know you can’t think of anything to backup the article and know us commenters are right.

      • Here’s the thing. I too have a friend that runs an idol site. Because he’s my friend, I was pretty blind to the creepy stuff he does. When others tried to point out what a creep he is, I wanted to be like “oh he’s not *that* bad.” But, no, that’s not the truth. I understand why all of you from VG want to defend Tommy. He’s been nice to you all and has done a lot to promote Rainbow. And yes, that means a lot since, until this year when they started going all cute, they were basically third fiddle in DSP.

        But come on, look at this from another perspective. Making posts where you ship yourself with an idol? What if you had a friend who considered themselves a “supportive boyfriend” of say Jennifer Lawrence. I mean that kind of stuff keeps a delusional person from meeting people around them.

        I guess because kpop and idols from other countries set up a market where people can seriously pretend to be a boyfriend/girlfriend of a celebrity. But that’s what it is – pretend. And if it bothers you that someone pointed this out, then I tend to think you know what’s wrong with all of this. Maybe you don’t want to realize it.

  12. This entire article is ridiculous…

    When I read it, the message it left me with was not: “Tommy is a creepy man”; but rather: “I am insecure.” I honestly cannot believe your self worth and value stems from flaming others. There are better things to do with your time, and far greater things in which you can find your purpose.

    You’ll grow out of this immaturity someday, but try to do it without hurting many people – you’ll find that hatred is not very rewarding.

    • It’s true that Tommy is a little insecure about himself. I know the only thing he really takes hard is when fans accuse him of hurting Rainbow as that is the last thing he wants to do to them. He doesn’t care about the haters themselves anymore. The things used in this entire post were in a period when he was a little more vulnerable too. He’s made some great strides at improving, controlling and overcoming his emotions since then. As humans we all need a certain period of time to challenge ourselves to improve.

      I believe what made him realize he had to be stronger is when Rainbow themselves said he was a famous fan on the radio. They did not have to say this when his name was mentioned. I am sure sometimes they hear other fan names they may know and choose to remain quiet. But, they made a effort to quickly say they knew him, met him on After School Club and considered him a famous fan of theirs. Yoon Hye even gave a cute smirk and looked at Jisook when his name was said. I think that respect from Rainbow made him realize that he has a responsibility to stay on course and not let things bother him as much for Rainbow 🙂

    • Wow when you put it that way I really see how immature I am. I only hope that one day when I grow older I can blossom into a mature person who ships myself with a person that I do not know and who encourages kids to ship me with that person as well and defend me if anyone would dare say that’s abnormal.

  13. Also I think Tommy was a bit nervous and shy on After School Club, which is quiet understandable and it showed. He was also very happy. How would you feel about getting to meet the very people you been dreaming to meet for so long? Especially with knowing so many fans who support you are watching? Since the show is live and goes by pretty quick, it is hard not to make some errors.

  14. Well here’s the thing. Most of that thread Tommy made was made up of all his memories he shared with her and future projects for her. There is nothing wrong with keeping tabs on your memories if they make you happy. The only real thing that made that thread a ‘shipping thread’ was the title of the thread. He shared his letters to her in there too, but that doesn’t make it shipping. That’s just sharing what he wrote and while he expressed his feelings in them, he was very open, honest and respectful will doing so. Now…

    First, I know Tommy did not make up that shipping name himself, but rather someone else did. The thread doesn’t exist anymore either.

    Second, you shouldn’t take it so personal and seriously. People have fun and do silly things sometimes. It isn’t really harming anyone. Rainbow surely isn’t bothered by it. Again you can not deny they do share somewhat of a closeness. Your friend was wrong about this and they know it.

    Third, what you say is the reason behind all of this does not draw having to put this much effort into making a long post about bashing the person for it.

    Fourth, alot of the things Tommy says to Jisook he means in a cute way to show how much he respects and values her. Some people take it the wrong way. He likes to display a sign of respect to her and Rainbow. He says nothing disgusting or perverted. You can not say that for a million other K-Pop fans.

    Fifth, it’s not like he is some psycho who cuts himself and sends blood notes to her or would record them singing in the shower, etc. there are some really extreme fans out there and he is not one of them. Though he gets overly happy sometimes, he always means well behind his intentions.

    Sixth, he is great friends with the staff at Girl’s Day Daily and they do alot of the same things that he does. Does that make them as bad?

    Seventh, there are alot of fans who act this way, but it’s ok with them. Just not someone who actually does alot of good?

    Tommy is extremely loyal to Rainbow that I have no doubts that even after they are idols he will always be there for them. You can not say that for many people. Once idols disappear people forget about them.

    Now I am not saying your friend is a bad person, it’s just going to this extreme doing this entire post over a little issue they have with him is really going overboard to slander someone who really isn’t a bad person. What’s the purpose? What is going to achieve? Do you think Rainbow who does care about him would love to see this? Is your friend even really a fan then?

    Your friend can have their opinions of him all they want, but making this post does not make them look any better then how they perceive him. Apples and oranges. I wouldn’t call it anyone winning, but I suggest this post just go away for everyone’s sake. You can have your opinion of him all you want, but it does neither him or your friend good having it around.

    • I’m gonna assume this post is in reply to me since I’m the one that brought up shipping.

      Not that it’s particularly relevant, but the friend that I was referring to was not the author of this post.

      You all might want to believe that this dude actually has a special connection to a Korean celebrity. Why? Because she follows him on twitter and DM’ed him? Please. Stop acting like an idol/celebrity’s persona means a thing about them. It’s a job. If you worked at a coffee shop and had a regular customer, you’d probably offer them free coffee every now and then. It’s just a business relationship.

      And before you reply going “lmao you think Tommy is getting paid for this??” stop and reconsider what I mean by that analogy.

      All of this k-pop stuff is game and there’s a lot wrong with it. One of the major things that’s wrong with it is idols (in Korea and Japan in particular) have to maintain some pure virginal nonsense to appeal to fans. Sure, they can date, so long as they go to great lengths to hide it from the public as to not disturb any fans (unless it’s two dating celebrities doing it for publicity…). Maybe you don’t see it but I see the connection between that problem and the kind of stuff that was posted about Jisook.

      You bring up the stalker fans to say they are worse but I don’t really care about what types of fans are worse. All I know is that this fake boyfriend/girlfriend shit is gross and has to stop. To me, that’s the point of this post. Tommy’s just an example of it but there’s plenty of others. Heck, you even agree with me on that. If you read through the blog archives here, you will see a similar post about someone named perfume444, who believed he was the One True Fan of Perfume.

      That kind of stuff that Tommy said in that thread – about one day marrying Jisook cause they both like pizza or something – is part of the problem. If it’s a joke then it’s not a funny joke. You can’t just go blaming companies for things like dating bans when the consumers/fans here are taking part of the game. They are also perpetuating it with fantasies of being a SO or partner of an idol. That’s why the stuff that he posted was creepy. If you don’t think it’s creepy, then congratulations you are like a lot of idol fans out there.

      • I agree with alot of the things you say and get your point to a extent. While K-Pop is a shady business surely full of many games and fakeness, not all things are fake either. The industry is bad no doubt and does do these things alot, but in some cases not everything is forced fanservice. You are free to believe what you want, from the looks of it your issue lies with the industry and fans in general, but these are still people with feelings, emotions and sincerity. So in short, we can not say what can be true or not.

    • I don’t know if this is for me but I’ll respond anyway.

      ” Most of that thread Tommy made was made up of all his memories he shared with her and future projects for her. There is nothing wrong with keeping tabs on your memories if they make you happy. ”

      Why share it with everyone? I’m everyone has memories they love but they don’t feel the need to announce it to the world. To me it seemed like he wanted to show off how dedicated he was to Jisook.

      “First, I know Tommy did not make up that shipping name himself, but rather someone else did. The thread doesn’t exist anymore either.”

      Why? If there was nothing creepy about it and no criticism then why delete it?

      “Third, what you say is the reason behind all of this does not draw having to put this much effort into making a long post about bashing the person for it. ”

      Jenny are you serious with that? You keep commenting all of the time here. Why don’t you take your own advice and stop wasting your time and effort as you put it?

      How the hell is it normal for a grown man(who should know better) to be certain that Jisook will love him? You guys are just as much as to blame for supporting him and enabling him.

      Yeah it’s okay for him to want to be with her but talking about how he will share a pillow with Jisook in time is fucked up. Plus “One day Sookie will accept my heart you’ll see ” and these are only a few examples of how he talks about how he will to be together with Jisook like it’s a fact. Then you have enough nerve to tell me to stop writing the truth. I will not.

      It’s not okay for him to do this. He does not own Jisook nor make
      decisions for her and she has never expressed wanting to fuck or marry Tommy. So why are you all trying to make it happen? Without her concent? You all are crazy. Are you living back in the 1700s where men bought their wives? Seems like it.

      Jisook has known about Tommy for 5 years. You said that was enough time for Tommy to fall in love with Jisook so it’s enough time for Jisook to know that she is not in love with Tommy. If she was in love why wouldn’t she tell him that she does love him? BECAUSE SHE DOESN’T. So why doesn’t Tommy stop trying and just admire her as a fan? He’s an obsessed stalker who can’t accept reality, that’s why. Please stop encouraging him.

      “Fifth, it’s not like he is some psycho who cuts himself and sends blood notes to her or would record them singing in the shower, etc. there are some really extreme fans out there and he is not one of them. Though he gets overly happy sometimes, he always means well behind his intentions.”

      Those are teenage girls and yes they probably need help as well as Tommy. And he doesn’t live in Korea so we don’t know what he’d be like. I thank God every day that’s there’s a beautiful ocean that acts as a barrier between America and Korea.

      “Sixth, he is great friends with the staff at Girl’s Day Daily and they do alot of the same things that he does. Does that make them as bad?”

      If they say the same psychotic shit as him yes it does but only Tommy Christopher was brought to my attention recently.

      “Seventh, there are alot of fans who act this way, but it’s ok with them. Just not someone who actually does alot of good?”

      If you bothered to get to know me like you said I should with Tommy you would see many articles that I wrote criticizing people for their actions. But according to you what the person writes doesn’t count as getting to know the person.

      NO. IT’S NOT FUCKING OKAY. Where did I ever say that? IT’S NEVER OKAY. It’s not ever fucking okay if a person does good to let them off the god damn hook. OH MY GOD. ARE YOU SERIOUS? This is what is wrong with all of you Tommy defenders. You ignore his actions because of all he does for you. That’s downright disgusting. You must think Roman Polanski and Woody Allen are pretty swell guys as well and since they make great films their actions don’t matter.

      I can’t.

      • We’re not defending him for what he has done for us. Like I’ve said, it’s just looking at things from different perspectives. What you perceived as wrong actions are from your point of view. That’s why there’s no right or wrong in this situation and the only wrong thing about this is that you chose to express your opinion that includes hurting other people’s feelings, publicly. And that’s how this whole conflict began. If you did not do that, we wouldn’t have this conversation. If you could try to see things from a different perspective, maybe you would think that we might have a point and that things tend to have many sides instead of one.

      • Okay you can say that all you want and maybe it’s true for you but that other comment specifically stated that I was only attacking people who did good and ignoring everyone else. What that implies is that it’s not okay to attack someone who does so much good because the positive things they do outweigh the bad. There’s no other way to understand that particular comment. Unless you would care to enlighten me on how I’m perceiving it wrongly?

        I have looked at it from different perspectives. If I hadn’t how could I compliment him for Visual Glow. It’s just that as well as the good I can see bad and no I’m not going to ignore it to be nice.

        “What you perceived as wrong actions are from your point of view.” True. We only have our own morals but generally there is what is considered wrong and right. For example if someone beat a child in public and people got offended would you think saying that “It was only wrong because you deemed it so and I’ll continue to beat my child.” be an acceptable retaliation or reason as to why it should keep happening? Most people would not say that suffices as an acceptable answer.

        I understand that you like your friend or whatever and don’t want to say anything about how he acts because he’s your friend. I’m not so cold-hearted that I can’t comprehend that. But at the same time maybe you should consider why you are friends with Tommy if he acts like this. Like you said, different perspectives, right?

        And going on with that different perspectives theme maybe you should think of it from the perspective of Jisook a little more. Jisook’s job is basically to act as a girlfriend. Jisook is not a singer or an artist, Jisook is an idol. Which means while she does sing and dance her main job is to act as a friend or girlfriend substitute to people who need it. It’s what makes the company money.

        Now tell me how would DSP and Rainbow benefit from losing fans? Please. I beg of you. They want to make money and with less fans comes less money. So to earn more money they want more fans. Will they get fans by acting nasty to people? Or is it in their best interest to act nicely to everyone? This is probably a little insulting because I’m breaking it down so simply but it’s what is required. My point is that’s their job. To act friendly and do fanservice. It’s how they make their money and I’m sure they want to keep making money. If they don’t do it some other group will because it’s in high demand so they essentially have to.

        No one has solid proof that Jisook actually likes Tommy. It’s all about maintaining business relations and that means nothing more than that. This is why Tommy gets special treatment, NOT because they like him. If he was a regular fan and they followed him and dmed him then yes you could say that they liked him but that’s not the case here. Plus most forms of social media are just created for promotion. Sorry to break that to you. I guarantee you most idols have private ones with the people they actually like.

        So back to Jisook’s perspective. She’s an idol and that’s her job but that’s not all she is. But that’s all you see of her. You won’t see her at night if she’s had a bad day crying, you won’t see her when she wakes up in the morning looking like a mess, you won’t see her farting and you won’t see her with her boyfriend. That’s because you are only seeing what her company wants you to see. So she becomes less of a person and more so a perfect friend and girlfriend so you spend money on her and her group to show your love.

        But we don’t KNOW her. The REAL her, not the idol. She becomes sort of an object based on how we perceive her for our needs. Like Tommy has it in his head that she’s his girlfriend or at the very least will be even though he doesn’t know her or hasn’t met her because he feels like it since it’s Jisook’s job to seduce men.

        People keep saying that Tommy’s obsession is harmless. But it’s not. The way Tommy talks about Jisook harms Jisook. Jisook is a person and should be treated as such but he doesn’t see her that way. How do I know? He keeps stating things like I will share a pillow with Jisook in time. Anyone can see that this is not just simply wishing for it to happen(which is normal) but it’s speaking about that matter as if it will happen and there even seems to be a plan he has made to make this happen. I am not making this up, it’s all written down by Tommy and you can check it out.

        The thing I don’t get is why you all keep saying that I don’t know Tommy because apparently he keeps writing false things down over and over again. You all should write the excuses Kpop companies come up with when scandals break. If it was a one time occurrence well yes I’d ignore it but it’s not. He has wrote it multiple times. What I supposed to assume besides that he believes it? Like is it actually that shocking to you that I believe he believes what he writes down? How does he consistently keep managing to misrepresent himself and his true feelings? The bottom line is it’s just an excuse to protect your friend and you know it. Hell, some of you even say that he shouldn’t be posting it publicly because you know he sounds batshit crazy and don’t want the world to tell him that.

        You say I don’t know him but I think I do well enough to judge him. I say he’s a Jisook obsessed freak and you say he’s in love with Jisook who he has never met for over 5 years now. That to me sounds identical only the latter is expressed in a kinder way. But what I find hilarious is that you think that I can’t possibly know him by what he writes and says, that I can only know him by chatting to him(and I mean about significant matters)frequently and being his friend. Well by that logic Tommy can’t know Jisook at all and should stop thinking that she’s his girlfriend.

        Anyway why this is so harmful is because when he writes this shit he ignores that Jisook is a person. He can not think she is a person if he chooses to ignore her feelings. That’s the very definition of dehumanizing someone. Now at this point I know that you are thinking “NO. TOMMY LOVES JISOOK AND WOULD NEVER HURT HER!!!! TOMMY SENDS HER THINGS!!!! HIS LOVE IS TRUE.” but hear me out. Different perspectives, right?

        What I was trying to say in my original entry is that there’s no specific reason for Jisook to want to be with Tommy. There’s just not. Why? SHE DOESN’T KNOW HIM. Even if he was the richest, hottest guy ever who was the male version of Jisook, she DOES NOT KNOW HIM. That is not how you have a relationship. You don’t pick out a person to spend your life with without their consent. That is fucked up beyond words. Especially since they’ve never even met and don’t know each other. Most people would say to be in love or in a relationship two people must have a mutual attraction to each other whether it be sexual or intellectual. Not just that you pick out a girl and because you really want to be together with her, you magically both now are in love with each other.

        I don’t know why this is hard for to comprehend. Okay. Try going out to a crowded mall and pick out the girl who is prettiest to you and walk up and tell her you will share a pillow with her in time. Go on. Do it. See what happens. You’ll see how normal it is then. It’s no different from the situation here. I bet you’d be kicked out of the mall and if you kept doing it to her you’d get a restraining order because it’s creepy.

        Why should Jisook have any reason to date him? HAS SHE EVER EXPRESSED AN INTEREST IN HIM? I’m guessing no. She knows that Tommy wants to date/fuck her and since she could easily DM him, SHE HAS NO INTEREST. So why does Tommy keep trying to push it on her? It’s obvious from the way he speaks. Isn’t that ignoring her feelings? Maybe JUST MAYBE she doesn’t want to be with Tommy.

        Talking like you want to force a girl into a relationship based solely on the fact that YOU like her(and not to mention he hasn’t even met her) and ignoring her feelings about the situation IS harmful. It’s what feeds rape culture. If I saw any guy doing this I would call him out on it because it’s sick. Women aren’t property.

        I won’t treat him nicely because as far as I’m concerned right now he doesn’t deserve that courtesy. If he changed his ways, well then yeah. Sorry if you were expecting me to be nice to everyone regardless of who they are and how they act because it’s not happening.

        There’s probably spelling errors or whatever in this. I’m sorry.

  15. I’ll sum it up like this, no need for long paragraphs. Overexerted post over such minor things. Tommy has more fans that support him then he does haters. Defeats the purpose of trying to run him out of the fandom. He’ll just always gain more as does anyone with popularity. Has huge following in Korea and Japan. Even has Rainbow supporting him despite what the owner of this post thinks. Owner of this post remains hidden. Some signs of jealousness and lack of respect display. Poster clearly does not care about Rainbow as much as they do putting someone down.

    • Yeah but if I wasn’t through you’d start getting on my case for that. Anything to drag me down because I hated on St.Tommy Christopher who only spreads love and goodness into the world.

      If you aren’t concerned with my opinion because Tommy has so many fans then really why even bother commenting. It sure looks like you care.

      And Rainbow is forced to support him so they don’t count. I will give you the 1000000 fans he has in Korea and Japan because at least they have free will.

    • When is Tommy oppa’s photobook coming out? Will it have swimsuit shots and school girl cosplay? I don’t want photos too artistic or weird. They are no good and I will give the book a low rating on amazon if this happens.

  16. Really over a small thread? It’s worth spending that much time bashing someone’s character and in that much detail? How does that make your friend look any better? This isn’t about winning or losing, but seriously whose side do you think more people would stand by?

    This entire post is a waste of time. You are just being humiliated as much as you are trying to make him feel. The only difference is the owner behind this post is hidden and if they feel the heat, no one would know who, so they can hide their feelings. The person it is about can not.

  18. In contrast to most of the other commenters, I thought this post was great. Being in the same age-group/race/sex as this Tommy character, I do think some of your comments/opinions about him are colored by the “creepy white guy with an Asian fetish” stereotype. I don’t like this stereotype (as it reduces my love for my wife to me being an imperialist racist) but it exists for a reason (thanks Internet porn). Any white guy who likes younger Asian females needs to examine themselves throroughly and make sure you’re not just looking for a submissive/easy lay. It sounds like Tommy likes some positive personality characteristics Ji Sook has that don’t adhere to the Asian female stereotype but I don’t know what’s going on his head (and frankly, I don’t want to know, us men are disgusting pigs).

    But even if you look beyond his race, he is still a freak (his psychology is a bit more complex but I won’t waste words or time examining him). The sad thing is, as you pointed out, because his website advertises the group (who per wikipedia sold a shit 15,000 copies of their last CD), they have to put up with his presence. If I stan SNSD, at least they can blow me off since they have plenty of fans to support them. It’s the equivalent of survival sex (though without the actual sex), almost like a director promising a young actress a good role if she sleeps with him. I’m not saying such a relationship has to be exploitative but asking the girls to sing “Go Tommy Go Tommy” makes you question his motives (i.e he’s either a pathetic loser who has little other sources of self-esteem or a predator who likes making people bend to his will and finds fame-seeking Korean girls easy to manipulate).

  19. This was getting funny but then, after the video review, you completely went nuts, I don’t understand why the hate. You two are both delusional fanboys (of course, he’s autistic, he has his reasons) but you?

    I mean, to hate a personality/celebrity/known person is just sad mate. And again, this could have been funny if it wasn’t so long and dedicated to make people hate him.

  20. the unfortunate, tragic case of rainbow.

    it’s bad enough they don’t really have a solid fan base in korea, their only fan base for international fans is hijacked by a sasaeng in the making.

    fortunately for jisook, tommy’s too poor to board a flight to korea and find a way to get a job as an english teacher and transform into a fully-fledged sasaeng.

    while tommy is a creep, he’s actually useful. without visual glow, rainbow is effectively dead. they are the most lackluster of all the girl groups who have debuted in 2009 (they’re the only girl group from their batch who have not won in any music program ever). dsp has tried everything at this point from sexy (cha cha) to cute (hoi hoi, tell me, tell me) and still nada.

    fortunately for rainbow, dsp is desperate. they can’t abandon them since kara’s future is on totally shaky grounds.

    let’s see how long tommy, rainbow and dsp plod on before one of them gives up on the other.

  21. Thank you for this. I’ve been an fan since P7 was a thing, but I never really put all this together and never followed Tommy on twitter.

    This put a lot of things into perspective.

  22. It seriously disgusts me to see how many people commenting are simply unable to see (or unwilling to knowledge) the truth in this article. Tommy is a fucking creep. A. FUCKING. CREEP. No matter how people try to defend, explain, or justify his relationship with the members of Rainbow, there is simply no denying that he is a delusional creep who has an unhealthy obsession with an idol. As the writer said, idols are PAID TO PERFORM. Performing is not limited to singing and dancing. When an idol performs, they feign emotions and falsify sentiment for the sake of their fans. Anyone who understand the idol system or even the entertainment industry as a whole should be fully aware of that fact. Therefore, there is something completely abhorrent about people like Tommy Christopher. He is obsessed and, if he lived anywhere near members of Rainbow, would surely be a stalker worthy of a restraining order. The writer of the above article wrote so much and was so detailed because he/she was exposing a problem inherent in many fandoms. Obsession (especially when it is unhealthy and one-sided) runs ramped. As a decade long K-Pop fan, I have witnessed the lengths in which people will go to sate their obsessions. Some, like Tommy, begin with running sites and such to justify and even gratify their own over-occupation with their favorite idols. Many obsessions do not extend past mere internet stalking. Some, however, can become harmful to idols and other fans. Therefore, it is ESSENTIAL that we as a community discuss the wrongs inherent in becoming overly obsessed. People like Tommy are not healthy. People like Tommy fail to understand the realities of ACTUAL affection and human interaction. People like Tommy are a horrid representation of K-pop fans and fandoms. I truly hope that either he or some of his equally delusional ‘fans’ read my post. There is something very wrong with how he expresses his ‘love’. It is genuinely disturbing, it sickens me, and I fear for anyone whom he decides he wants to worship (i.e. STALK). He is the most disgusting sort of person…..

  23. You guys do know that Tommy is not as insane as you make him out to be? He doesn’t think he owns her or that she is in love with him. You are making a bigger deal out of it then you need to. Maybe if you actually knew him you would see he has a normal life with many interests. He is actually fairly intelligent and gives good advice.

  24. Also you are going to tell me that Ji Sook decided to follow him one day on Twitter just because she is required to? How many idols follow their fans when they really do not need to? Isn’t that a bit much for fanservice? Why put yourself in a situation where the person can easily send you messages if you do not like them? Why risk making other fans angry because they don’t follow them as well? She could easily not of followed him and not respond to him and he would think nothing of it. No one said she loves him, but who are you to say she doesn’t like having him around as a fan and supporter? She’s a big girl with a brain and you do not know what she is thinking. Maybe just maybe she appreciates his effort and is not bothered as you try to paint her out to be. Also Tommy talks to her sister on Twitter alot. Not everything in the world is fake you know. The industry is full of alot of bullshit, but if you truly knew Rainbow and how open they are about being themselves with their fans you’d know the difference.

  25. Tommy isn’t even perverted like some make him out to be. I’ve never seen him write a single perverted thing. He’s just expressive and trying his best. You claim he thinks he owns her, he does not think that way.

    Not to mention that if you followed Rainbow’s fandom more closely you would know that Tommy isn’t the only one in that fandom who shows their ‘love’ the same way. There is a Japanese Rainnous named Kazuma who writes similar things to Seung A, goes to Korea alot. He’s also been to Canada and China when Rainbow went there. The girls love him as well if you ever seen their Meet & Greets.

    There is a fan named wooyeon who goes everywhere they do and he’s always retweeted. Do you know DSP Media at all and everything they lack? Do you truly believe they would force Rainbow to cater to him? Rainbow have their own minds and can freely follow and tweet to those they like. Hell Jae Kyung followed the regular girl who drove her around Los Angeles last year. They follow those who matter to her and the truth is they follow who they appreciate, not who they are ‘scared’ of.

  26. The ‘share same pillow’ thing this person speaks of was taken out of context like this entire article was. Tommy bought Ji Sook a Rilakkuma pilow and the company sent two to him by mistake, so he said they would soon be sharing the same pillow because he kept one for himself. This person picked what they wanted and left out other parts to make their point. If you truly know Tommy you’d know he doesn’t speak in perverted tongue. I share his love and relationships article and you can clearly see his mind frame there.

    I also read that Ji Sook’s father has been wearing a gift for him for the past year. I don’t think a girl would give her father a gift from someone she is scared of. Knowing how fathers are I also know that no father would wear a gift from someone that bothers his own daughter.

  27. Damn! There are some fucking die hard Tommy fans on here! You all are getting all butt hurt over some article! Saying that the creator of this post is in the wrong. What the actual fuck? The author of this post is entitled to their own opinion and have the right to say whatever the hell they want about whoever they want. I’ll admit, the author went a little overboard but still, what the hell can you guys do about it. So I will just say this. None of you know Rainbow on a personal level neither do you know Tommy on a personal level. All of you need to stop making childish accusations about the group and about how Tommy has done so much good things for the girls. You all are acting like a fucking baby version of Donald Trump who didn’t get what he wants. How about we build a wall between Rainbow and Tommy and make Tommy pay the goddamn bill? Stop trying to fucking defend his actions. Let him defend himself. If he doesn’t defend himself then fine, he just won’t defend himself, but I highly doubt that he will ever ask you all to defend his ‘honor’ as Rainbow’s ‘number 1 fan’, no matter how much of a chicken-shit(Coward) he is. Oh, sorry I kind of drifted off there. Let me sum up everything I just wrote. EITHER GROW THE FUCK UP OR SHUT THE FUCK UP.
