New fan etiquette rules aim to protect ENHYPEN members and promote safety.
- Strict guidelines prohibit stalking and unauthorized interactions with artists.
- Fans risk bans and legal actions for violating updated etiquette rules.
- Respect for private spaces and personal information is now mandatory.
BELIFT LAB has issued a comprehensive update to fan etiquette for ENHYPEN’s fandom, ENGENE, emphasizing safety, respect, and legal accountability. The announcement, released on February 13 KST, aims to cultivate a healthy fan culture while safeguarding the rights and well-being of the artists. Fans who violate the rules risk being barred from future events, and the company may pursue civil or criminal action against those engaging in inappropriate or illegal behavior.
A key concern highlighted is the unauthorized acquisition of the artist’s travel information. Instances of fans appearing at airports or approaching artists during transit have posed safety risks and disrupted other passengers. BELIFT LAB reiterates that flight schedules and travel details are never disclosed publicly, and such behaviors are strictly forbidden.
The updated guidelines include six main points:
- Respect Private Spaces: Fans must not visit private or unofficial locations, including company offices, practice studios, residences, or airports. Gifts and letters should only be delivered via official channels.
- No Stalking: Contacting, following, or attempting physical interaction with artists or their acquaintances is prohibited. Access to restricted areas through illicit means is also forbidden.
- Protect Personal Information: Selling or trading the artists’ personal or flight information is strictly banned.
- Recording Restrictions: Photography, video, and audio recording are allowed only in authorized areas. Fans must comply with venue rules and may be asked to delete unauthorized content.
- Do Not Interfere with Activities: Fans must not obstruct artists, security personnel, or vehicles, and must comply with requests from management.
- Avoid Inappropriate Actions: This includes using false identities, forcibly handing over gifts or letters, and engaging in behaviors that threaten or harass the artists.
BELIFT LAB emphasizes that these rules are enforced without leniency to maintain the safety of ENHYPEN and promote a respectful fan environment. The company encourages all fans to adhere strictly to the guidelines to protect both the artists and the wider public while ensuring a positive and organized fan culture.
