Contrary to the reaction of K-netz, many ELFs, especially international fans, were more disappointed to the 14-year fan.
Over Twitter, the fandom criticized the long-time fan for mentioning the years she spent for the idol, as if “manipulating” Eunhyuk’s feelings just because the fan spend time, effort, and money for him.
ELFs also expressed frustrations to the fan, saying it is a huge honor to be recognized as a “good fan” for supporting an idol with thousands of fans.
The fandom then reminisced the times that Eunhyuk showed his love and gratefulness towards ELFs, proving how appreciative he is.

Bringing this back when Eunhyuk was spotted reading a fan letter in the car while waiting for the manager
Idols received tons of letters everyday from their fans. The fact that Eunhyuk is /actually/ taking his time reading them, shows how appreciative he is.

Another fan letter tweet!
This OP wrote in her letter that it’s Chinese Valentine’s Day soon and it’d be great if Eunhyuk can come on weibo for a bit since CELF missed him a lot.
He did appear on weibo for the Valentine’s Day then
