akgae
What does akgae mean?
A fan who only stans one member and openly drags the rest — wishes they'd go solo, accuses the group of holding them back, refuses to acknowledge group wins. The fandom's most policed archetype.
"The replies are full of akgaes blaming the other members for his line distribution again."
Origin
Korean '악개' — short for '악성 개인팬' (akseong gaeinpaen), 'malicious individual fan'. Lifted into English-speaking K-pop Twitter to flag the toxic solo stans.
