The debate of young people debuting in K-Pop has come up time and time again as netizens consider the effects of early debut on children.

With NewJeans‘ debut in 2022, many issues arose from the girls’ young ages, including the ages of the people meeting them and health concerns for young idols overall.

A recent viral video has triggered the conversation yet again involving a young Chinese entertainment company trainee.

TF Entertainment is a company based in Bejing, China, that was established in 2009. The company has produced multiple boy groups, including TNT and TFBOYS.

Recently, an account sharing content from China posted clips of a reported company trainee being escorted from school by his classmates. In the clips, his classmates attempt to fend off what appears to be an adult woman, taking video of him as he leaves.

It is not uncommon for trainees to have fans before their debut, and TF Entertainment’s groups have often included young members — TFBOYS debuted when the group’s members were 12 and 13.

Netizens have shown surprise over the video and wondered why someone so young and not yet debuted would have to deal with an adult stalker fan already.
