* One of the interpretations of Music/{{BTS}}' "Fake Love" is that it describes the relationship many Kpop idols have with their fans, with companies creating an idealized, sanitized version of artists through make-up, editing, and control of their image through ContractualPurity, which idols maintain in order to make their fans happy.
