K-ent and netizens have added to the pressures that have driven many K-stars to end their lives so its not like entertainment journalists don’t know that there could be a consequence to their writing. TW-actor Aaron Yan posted this week on yet another paparazzi intrusion into his life when he was photographed going to the movie with male friend Ah Ben. It’s true that paps have been insinuating the two have been dating since 8 years ago when they were photographed hanging out multiple times on date like outings but honestly Taiwan is so open about same sex relationships no one cares at this point. So Aaron rightfully points out on several posts on his SNS that he’s just living his life with nothing to hide – going out, with a friend, seeing a movie, and yet he feels so scared and violated to learn paps have been staking him out for two months and he can go to no one for help not even the authorities. He basically ended with “I’m living my life, bothering no one, but today I’m scared of going home.” That is not right no matter if the person is a public figure or not. I’m 100% supportive of stars having the right to their private lives.
I literally just searched him up not even half an hour ago hoping to see updates about any upcoming projects and hoping he’s doing well mentally after that whole shitstorm. I really, really hope he’s getting professional help if he needs it. There have been far too many tragic losses in Asian entertainment. I don’t know when people will learn to mind their own damn business and live and let live.
He’s so talented and gorgeous and this soul-sucking industry needs to value such artists, not smother them with crap like this.
Move out from Taiwan.can go to Singapore, no paps there.
