2PM's Junho Reveals Disturbing Encounters with Obsessive Fans at His Home

In a recent episode of the YouTube series 'TEO,' singer and actor Lee Junho opened up about the harrowing experiences he has faced due to obsessive fans, known as "sasaeng fans." This revealing conversation took place on September 24th (KST), during an engaging episode titled “This Fox, you score 10 out of 10 | EP.59 Lee Junho | Salon Drip 2.”

When asked whether he invites friends over to his home, Junho candidly expressed, “These days, I’m so exhausted and busy that my home feels too precious. I just want to spend time alone, so I don’t invite anyone over.” Co-host Jang Do Yeon humorously commented on this sentiment, referencing Junho’s well-loved track 'My House' and jesting, “That’s contradictory—you told people to come to your house.”

Junho explained the unexpected fallout of the song’s massive popularity, revealing, “Since 'My House' became so popular and I kept singing 'come to my house' everywhere, a lot of people actually started coming to my house.” However, these visits weren't all welcome; he shared a particularly frightening encounter that left him shaken. He recounted a night when he heard footsteps at 3 AM, accompanied by incessant ringing from his personal doorbell. Terrified, Junho responded through the intercom, only to be met with the chilling reply, “Isn’t this Junho’s house?”

The scares didn’t end there. Junho remembered another unsettling incident near his apartment's elevator when a fan called out to him as the doors were closing. “I felt a chill,” he noted. When he inquired who the mystery woman was, she shockingly replied, “I came from another country because you told me to come to your house.” This experience drove home the realization for Junho that some fans might take his words to heart in an alarming way.

Despite the discomfort caused by such intense fandom, Junho maintains a deep affection for his supporters. He shared a delightful insight about his nickname "Lee Fox," which originated from his decision to wear a red shirt on various programs after 'My House' gained immense popularity.

In a touching display of gratitude, Junho recounted how he has gone out of his way to ensure his fans are cared for. He shared, “I once bought food for fans with my own money, and later, the members and I all chipped in to do it together. I just want my fans to always enjoy delicious meals.”

Junho's heartfelt stories reflect a balance between appreciating his fans while grappling with the more daunting aspects of fame. As the K-pop world continues to evolve, the conversation around fan behavior remains critical, drawing attention to the fine line between admiration and obsession.
