"Please refrain from moving to other places for filming. Please refrain from intensive photo shoots of cheerleaders. Tripods and monopods will be restricted after the guidance period."

The atmosphere at the V-League is changing. The displeasure towards the so-called "no-concept fancam (direct + camera + er)" has surfaced.

GS Caltex, a women's volleyball team, recently posted a notice of cooperation in the use of personal cameras to its fans. While asking for restraint from behaviors that cause inconvenience to other audiences, the words "Please refrain from taking intensive photos of cheerleaders" and "We will officially restrict the import of triangles and monopods in the future."

The move is aimed at protecting athletes and cheerleaders from indiscriminate shooting. Volleyball players warm up on the court. As a result, they are often exposed to filming of thieves. Some fans who take videos or pictures that cause sexual shame by intensively shooting and enlarging certain areas are a long-time headache of the volleyball community.

With the recent development of YouTube, such sensational or humiliating photos and videos are often used to generate revenue, which is even more serious. In many cases, videos that are completely irrelevant to the content are inserted to draw attention and consumed indiscriminately. The outstanding appearance seems to harm the player's unique star quality.

In some cases, police were dispatched to the scene due to a report from another fan who was watching the video while shooting an unexpected scene. Under the Special Act on Sexual Violence, even the relevant team officials had to be investigated by the police. However, it is practically not easy for the team to take official legal action against a spectator who bought a ticket and entered the scene.

Athletes are not the only ones. Cheerleaders have emerged as celebrities and even commuting hours are crowded these days. It would be nice if all of them had "pure fans," but the reality is that they are not.

In fact, from a cheerleader's point of view, the direct cameraman are mutually supportive. It is impossible to predict when and how the charm will be emitted from the picture. Lee Ju-eun, who rose to stardom with "Pippi Longstocking" following famous cheerleaders such as Seo Hyun-sook, Park Ki-ryang, Ahn Ji-hyun and Lee Da-hye, is a representative. It is even more cautious as the direct cam often leads to popularity and popularity. Rather, they shout out loud, saying, "Isn't it what cheerleaders want?"

However, a cheerleader complained, "Photographing is less like capturing a moment, but the problem is to take a full cam, not a direct cam." "When I come to work, I have a tripod installed in the front seat of the audience. I have no interest in games at all, and we are the only ones filming them. When I move, they follow me. There are people who take videos of unexpected exposure, habits, or humiliating moments and disseminate them," he said.

Another cheerleader said, "Some people were smiling as they said, 'This is how it was taken today' on their way home from work. It can be seen as a fan's heart, but it is true that it sometimes feels threatening." 먹튀검증

Unlike baseball and basketball, where a large number of cheerleaders move together, volleyball has one or two cheerleaders cheering in the middle of the audience. In the case of popular cheerleaders, dozens of cameras follow. Even if one feels uncomfortable with excessive filming, it is hard to express such feelings easily. It is also worrisome how and how it will be distorted by the vindictive camera.

Until now, the volleyball community had remained vigilant, but had taken an attitude that it had no choice but to say, "One of the fans who cannot stop people from entering and filming as long as they have purchased tickets." However, GS Caltex, a popular team based in Seoul, announced the plan after a long period of consideration. It is true that Seoul has the largest number of fans who cross the line due to its location and convenience in transportation.

The Korea Volleyball Federation (KOVO) said, "For now, we have strengthened monitoring of videos that have been exposed to social media such as YouTube. We are also continuously giving guidance to people to observe etiquette in the stadium through electronic boards or social media. There is a content related to the shooting of a personal camera inside," adding, "There is insufficient legal basis to stipulate a ban on bringing in cameras or to punish those who are filming."

GS Caltex is the first team that officially announced a no-go stance, but each team has also taken various protective measures. For example, it restricts camera assistive devices such as tripods for safety reasons, prevention of accidents, and obstruction of vision in stadiums. It is quite common for bodyguards to closely watch or restrain a rude person. In some cases, the structure of the stands has been changed to eliminate so-called "hot spots" for filming.

The world of volleyball needs to change, too. Strict restrictions should be placed on fans' behavior that crosses the set "line."

Volleyball players said, "Just because you buy a ticket doesn't mean that you can do everything in the stadium. Another way is to purify the culture of "direct cam" within the fans. It is typical to report unpleasant shootings to team officials or police."
