Are you also curious about fellow K-Pop fans?! Let’s hear their stories and interests in Kpopmap Fan Interview Project.
There are K-Pop fans across the globe who share the same passion. But on online platforms, it is hard to know about each other’ stories and K-Pop life. Even if we are in the same fandom, it is hard to get to know each other.
So at Kpopmap, we started the Kpopmap Fan Interview Project to get to know more about K-Pop fans from different countries: more about their K-Pop life and tastes and to give them the opportunity to share with our readers about their favorite group(s) and bias.
Angel is the next fan to answer our questions. She is from The Philippines and is a fan of Ciipher, and particularly of Tan! Check out how she entered the fandom, the songs and content she advises to new fans, and much more!
Can you introduce yourself? Where are you from?
Hello, I’m Angel and I’m from the Philippines.
How and when did you enter the fandom?
I entered the fandom at their debut.
What are the reasons why you love your favorite group?
One of the reasons why I love Ciipher is because they give me fresh and bright concepts that I really appreciate.
Who caught your attention at first and why?
DoHwan caught my attention at first because he was part of a survival show.
Who is your bias, and why?
My bias now is Tan because he is so calm and good at acting and singing.
Can you recommend a title track and a B-side track for new fans?
For new fans, I recommend ‘Fame’…
… and ‘Moon Night’ for their tracks.
Can you recommend a fancam, V Live, cover video, cover dance, or individual content video of your bias to our readers?
“The Master in the House” episode with Rain was too real to see on the TV even though it was just a prank.
Can you also do the same type of recommendation for the group?
Their ‘Rush Hour’ by MONSTA X cover dance.
Can you share with us one of your favorite lyrics?
“You are the love of my life
Everything that I want
You
Just breathe beside me
You’re the one I love.”
What is your best souvenir with your favorite group until now?
The “2022 Fly High K-POP Concert” where Ciipher was invited. I didn’t expect to be the lucky participant for this event and to be seen in the screen.
Can you share a fun episode that only fans from your fandom know to readers?
I remember the “Weekly Idol” episode with Rain on the punching machine without formality and them blowing their sentiments to their CEO which schocked everyone, even me, the whole time.
If you are collecting goods, what is you most precious treasure?
Their sliding card that is so cute and unexpected whose member is inside the card. That’s my most precious treasure.
What is your favorite group/bias’ influence on your daily life?
Ciipher gives me a fresh energy booster throughout my everyday life. Being a graduating student is hard, but with them, my fangirl life is easy. Now, I want to give back to them as I walk the stage with my recognition as a good student.
Do you feel there are any misunderstandings, things that are not well known, or any prejudices about your favorite group from other fans (non-fans)?
At first, their greeting was kinda odd to the point that other fans questioned them. But fortunately, they changed it and now I think they’re delighted. For me, their first greeting is not bad at all, it’s just new and they are making their name in the industry.
Thank you for answering our questions, Angel.
