“People never consume ‘things’ as such, people always use things assymbols that can highlight themselves.” -The Consumer Society, Baudrillard, 1970
If we look at the ldol culture from a religious perspective, the process of star-chasing is like the establishment of a religion. From the birth of God to the spread of God, around the “thing”, fans loyal and lean to becomethe best apostles, Religions of various shapes and colors have built upthe elysium of consumer society in a land devoid of faith.
If the idols are gods, then the fans are Moses, the preacher of this god.
and the fan culture is the Moses Ten Commandments of this church.
From then on, the first commandment was,”You shall have no other idols before me.”
