Seoul — Former TVXQ member Jaejoong hosted Naver’s Now Radio as a special guest MC on May 14. He read the comments written by fans and saw that many people were calling him affectionate names such as “baby”, “puppy” and “little bear”. The 35-year-old K-pop idol asked his fans to stop calling him those names.
Here is a clip where he responds to the names.

The singer said that he entered school earlier than other kids, so most of his schoolmates are now 37 years old.
It felt weird to be called those names, he said, reported Allkpop. What’s your take on fans baby-treating their idols?
