Idol Fans - a qualitative survey
Hello! I'm currently at university doing culture studies. I would like to do a reasearch about the Idol fan culture this time. I will ask people inside and outside the fandom and do some kind of comparison. I assure your anonymity will be kept and this research will NOT be published. Please take your time to answer the questions as detailed as possible and add your own experiences. You can answer in English or German. If the space isn't enough or you have inquiries about the questions, you can send an email to miraclehappylove@gmail.com or send a private message on Hello!Online to @Ayumine. Thank you for participating!
