It’s a trend for idols to give back to fans.
Idols usually give fans gifts or “reverse support” when attending offline events like music shows and festivals. Over the years, it has seemed to become something of a competition, with fans comparing gifts. While it’s understandable that novice idols provide less extravagant gifts, expectations are often high for more experienced idols 2024 MBC Gayo Daejeona netizen compiled a list of gifts received from fans.

Here are some of the gifts received.
Fans wondered why some idols failed to give their fans items such as food. After all, fans usually wait for events from dawn to dusk.
- I don’t know about the other things, but they should at least feed them.
- If someone waited for me in the cold for a few hours, of course I would want to give them food and gifts and be grateful. Idols also earn money from fans. If they are idols who are invited to perform at year-end festivals, then obviously they will have a certain level of recognition, so it’s too much for them to give nothing at all, no matter what the relationship between fans and idols is like. .
- Tell them something, FR, my prejudices…
- They already earned as much as they should have, so this is too much. They are not beginners and it is impossible that they do not know how pre-registrations work. They just don’t care about the fans.
- Wow… I left the fandom because they were starting to get greedy for money, but it seems they didn’t live up to my low expectations for it. I’m not particularly fond of reverse cheering, but they should at least give simple meals or hot compresses to the fans given the cold during the end of year events. How can they think it’s a shame to spend money on fans? This is too much… Their years of experience are wasted.
- If they care about fans waiting hours in the cold, they should give them something. It’s not like they don’t have enough to even buy a coffee truck… This is too much… I thought they were doing well looking at their charts and album sales LOL. If they don’t feed him something warm, at least a hot compress or something…
On the other hand, some worry about the black market for reselling these support gifts. While food can’t be easily resold, things like photo cards and small items usually hit the resale market at exorbitant prices.
