Study on the Misconduct of the Fandom under the Control of Capital

Abstract

With the development of the network and idol culture, “fandom” culture has gradually emerged. However, in this era of consumerism, strong involvement of capital has manipulated fandoms with an invisible hand, causing many chaos and seriously affecting the social order. Some undesirable phenomena been commonly seen in other circles of society, bringing life impact to others. To solve the negative problems in fandoms, we must find the root cause behind the proliferation of the problem, collaborate to establish rules and boundaries, cut off the illegal industrial chain behind “fandom” culture, and then build organized fan clubs and show positive energy in society.
