The issue of K-pop and age has always been up for debate, with many people divided on what the age limit should be for liking K-Pop.
Recently, a video of Epik High’s Tablo touching base on this subject garnered much attention online.
타블로 님 #BTS 언급
Q. 몇 살이 되면 케이팝 팬 활동을 그만해야 할까요? <한국의 7인 그룹을 후원하는 일>을요?
👦🏻 •• 아무 서사도 없잖아요. 근데 당신의 <한국의 7인 그룹>은 넷플릭스에서 자기들만의 컴백 쇼도 했어요. 그러니까 자랑스럽게 응원하세요. 나이는 전혀 상관없어요. pic.twitter.com/LbCu9rYyaH

Tablo gave his honest answer to the question of “At what age should I stop being a K-Pop fan? When should I stop sponsoring a seven-member group from Korea?”
“I think sponsoring seven boys from Korea is way better than collecting wine. You know? Or collecting golf clubs. These golf clubs are not like breathing individuals with souls with the like artistry, choreography, with dreams and passion, with story arcs. But the seven boys from Korea, they did their own comeback show on Netflix. Do billionaires’ golf clubs have their own show on Netflix? No, they do not. So proudly stan what you stan and age has nothing to do with it.”

Hearing this, fans could not stop expressing their gratitude for his genuine support.

Supporting BTS is like supporting a sport club that keeps winning. Is it stressful? Yes, but at the end of the day, we will always win. https://t.co/cVEqTR57w4

BTS breaking the notion that the life of a boyband/ kpop group is shortlived 🤝 ARMYs shattering the opinion (that hugely stems from misogyny) that being a fan of a musical band has an age limit. https://t.co/jy9AhlISsH
