     AS UNFORTUNATE AS IT IS, it's not uncommon in the K-pop world to witness fans overstepping their bounderies, such as becoming possessive of their idols, developing unhealthy obsessions with them, and some even attempting to influence their personal lives. today, I'll tell you about a perfect example of one of these circumstances: a story about a K-pop fanboy who almost committed the ultimate crime because of his love for his idol.

Let's dive in!

I need to take you back to July 1995, Lee Dowon's birth month and year, in order for this story to make sense. Lee Dowon was born on July 3rd, 1995, in the town of Icheon, South Korea, to South Korean parents Lee Yejun and Lee Hyunwoo.

Dowon was the target of cruel jokes and taunts from his peers for a brief period of his life, but he overcame this and was able to adjust to his circumstances. He had a typical childhood, as a straight A student with a wide range of interests that included arts and crafts, as well as playing the guitar! To put it mildly, he was a gifted child with a promising future.

When he turned ten, however, his life was flipped upside down when his parents, Yejun and Hyunwoo, decided to divorce after several months of being at odds with each other. Dowon was affected particularly hard by this separation, as he would now have to live with his mother indefinitely, while his father would be granted visitation privileges, as the court ordered after Yejun opted to fight for sole custody of Dowon.

Everything was going well until Yejun's mother, who had been alone for two years, chose to remarry. Choi Sanghoon, her new husband, completely controlled her life, and Yejun, blinded by love, failed to notice this. She even began to disregard her son's needs, putting her love life ahead of Dowon.
