Wait, there's more! Clare is back with a new batch of AU fanfics from Tiktok that she recently read and really liked!Just like our special note in Part 1, given the popularity of AU content on platforms like TikTok, it's come to our attention that many minors now not only consume but also create content in a genre referred to as “wild AUs.” We stand with other creators and writers in strongly discouraging this behavior.AU stories should never disrespect or sexualize K-pop idols. It's important to remember that these artists are real people who deserve our respect. Both minors and adults alike should avoid writing these wild AUs that have recently gained popularity on various platforms. Additionally, creating or sharing explicit content in a space where minors can access it is highly inappropriate and can have serious consequences.We urge all creators to be mindful of the impact their stories can have and to ensure they are creating a safe and respectful environment for all fans. Readers should also make a clear distinction between the fictional characters in these AUs and the real-life idols they are based on. Our podcast is committed to promoting positive and respectful fandom practices. Let's celebrate our favorite artists in ways that honor their talents and contributions without crossing ethical boundaries.
