So the conversation about “weak men” is really about fear of losing control of family structures, gender norms, and national identity in a rapidly modernizing society.

These worries aren’t just personal they’re political.
The government frames “strong” masculinity as a way to fix social issues like birthrate decline, rather than addressing systemic pressures on men and families.

Korean cafes are interesting because they offer creative drinks and unique styles. Drinks like dalgona coffee or sweet potato lattes seem popular. Many cafes have pretty decorations and desserts, which make them fun to visit.

As we notice, In Korea, coffee has become very popular over the last few years. Cafes are everywhere in big cities like Seoul and Busan. People go there to drink coffee, study, or just spend time in a nice space.

Coffee culture has become an important part of modern daily life around the world. Coffee is not just a drink anymore. People drink it to relax, meet friends, or work. Coffee shops have become a place to hang out and enjoy life, not just get caffeine.

Overall, both cases show how fandoms are no longer just about entertainment—they can be sites of political debate, cancel culture, and even conflicts with the state. This blurs the line between pop culture and politics in both East and West.

The authors use the idea of neo-tribalism to explain fandoms. Fans form “tribes” with strong emotional bonds. But when idols become political symbols, fans must choose between loyalty to their “tribe” and their own political identity.

On the other hand, Taylor Swift avoided politics for years, but when she finally expressed her support for Democratic candidates, fans were divided. Some praised her, others boycotted her. Unlike Xiao Zhan, her controversy was not about censorship but about her taking a clear political stance.

In the 227 Incident, Xiao Zhan’s fans reported a fanfiction site (AO3), which led to its shutdown in China. This triggered backlash from other netizens, who “canceled” Xiao by boycotting his products. What started as fan conflict became tied to issues of censorship and creative freedom.
