Reports that Cassiopeias, DBSK’s loyal fans, made it on the 2008 Guinness World Records as the largest fan group of an artist with 800,000 members started to spread early today, with many forums and bloggers reporting the “news.” But I have yet to see anything official confirming this glory to the Cassiopeias.
So is this fact or fiction?
If this is in fact true, then this is a huge slap on the face to the super mob aka Super Junior. They have more than twice the members and they failed to gather twice as many fans. No wonder the Elves have no weight with SM in their battle to prevent addition of new members in Super Junior.
And if this turns out to be fiction, we know who has the craziest fanbase out there.
So what do you think? Did Cassiopeias really get on Guinness World Records or is this just another case of fans gone wild?
| Fact or Fiction: Cassiopeias on Guinness World Records 1) Fact – DBSK has the largest fan base 2) Fiction – Cassiopeias must be bored today 3) Don’t care |

Elves and Cassiopeias must all reside in Thailand
DBSK introduces the “Purple Line”
Who let the crazy DBSK fans out of the loony bin?
omg seriously???
go cassiopedia!!^^
They are in different situations, DBlove. I’m extremely happy for them, they’re like…my favorite music people right now. (Well…either them, or NEWS. But let’s not get into that right now).
The only time anyone has compared them to international stars is in response to people saying they have the largest fan base in the world…fan CLUB, yeah, ok, but fan BASE, I severely doubt. It’s still a great accomplishment…
oh yay there WAS an article written! thanks popseoul….and of course it’s fact
It’s going to be in the 2008 edition by the way. congratulations to them. this is not including the bigeast fans and all the fans not part of fan clubs out there. so kudos to cassiopeia on organization and pulling together such a large group! and it’s true what they say…once you’re a dbsk fan, you’re ALWAYS as dbsk fan
DBSK <3 and congratulations!
heh… international stars? It just means those stars are from the US. If DBSK makes it in the US they’ll be international stars but really they have fans everywhere around the globe.
ah, i love Dong Bang Shin Ki!
if only their fans weren’t so scary.
i wonder what would happen if one of the members of TVXQ were to get a girlfriend…? what would the Cassiopeias do?
^ Mass suicide?
^
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
that just made my day.
800 000 members?! That’s a lot! Congrats to them, I guess, lol. And I’m not surprised. They’re notorious! And they have been around longer than Super Junior. I think it’s also easier to like smaller groups rather than huge ones.
Ah!!!!
that group is deserving to be in the book because they’ve got the largest fan group. Expecting that thing.
Some people are mentioning that DBSK only won and is listed in the GWB is because of the fact that other stars like Angelina Jolie or whoever didnt start up their own fanclubs.
That’s too damn bad then. They should’ve started their own fanclubs to make a go at breaking a record too. But with Cassiopeia out there, I don’t think anyone would stand a chance with DBSK.
since pple stated that DBSK has the biggest fanbase in Asia then what happen to Rain? his fanbase should be much bigger isnt
and those crazy Cass actually SPEND their money to registered ever year to be member and not counting more money on the boys bdays, special celebration day and more make up day to celebrate
NOw that’s is craziiiiieestttt fanbase
Suju fans more subtle and Suju hasnt spread their wings to Asia yet so cant compare
Im not DBSK or Suju fans. Im my own fan ahahahahha
lol if one of the dong bang boys got married…. the 400,000 cassiopeias would commit suicide and the other half would go after the wife….*sigh*
dont ever EVER compare dbsk to suju… suju has debuted two years ago yet dbsk has debuted a couple more years ahead of them. after 4 years, dbsk has gathered 800,000 fans and still counting but is this suju’s 4th year already??? besides dbsk has been all over the places, promoting stuff.. theyve been so active in 4 consecutive years. and what about suju? suju needed 1 year and 4 months break cause of the unseen tragic events. popseoul’s being an a**hole again for bringing up suju when this is article is supposed to just talk about the POWER OF CASSIOPEIA! gee, you seriously need to grow up, you 50-year old people!
and yes the power of cassiopeia is still unbeatable<3
i think its sad to say… Cassiopeias would support a coupling between the members themselves rather than a coupling with a girl. (-_-)
just like wish said: “Suju hasnt spread their wings to Asia yet so cant compare”.
arrgh im soo mad cuz popseoul is not being soo effing reasonable. he/she just had to bring up suju just for the sake of “hating” them.
when I posted that on livejournal it turned into a huge uproar lol.
Then we started having doubts but a young lady from UK was able to text them and got the reply that the Asia group tvxq had the largest fanclub
GREAT!!
DBSK HWAITING!!
I wanna be a Cassiopeia
but is so expensive X_x
expensive subscripcion x 800,000 official members
= a lot of money!!
it could be cheaper!
why am i not surprised???
oh one more thing….
DON’T DIS ON MY SUJU BOIZ
AND ITS TRUE WHAT THE OTHER SAID UP THERE
THEY DID DEBUT AFTER DBSK SO OF COURSE DBSK IS MORE POPULAR THAN SUJU….
IT’S COMMON SENSE DUDE…D-U-D-E
and you know what…i laugh at you becuz u diss on the elves too…
you might as not run into one of them…becuz if you do…
oooo man i wouldn’t know what they’ll do to your ass
always dissing on their boiz….
pathetic lame loser u
that is simply amazing! but i’m really disappointed since they had 800,000 fans but only sold around 350,000 O albums
it just doesn’t make sense
“DBSK does have a lot of fans BUT i also wonder if some of these Cassiopeians registered numerous accounts on the fanclub, since some of them are quite overly “enthusisastic””
To be an official Cassiopeian… it’s not a simple matter of filling out a registration form and you’re a member. Members have to register again EVERY year.. and pay the membership fee, which is about $60USD.
Errr I did state that they were “overly enthusiastic” didnt I? Which could probably mean they wouldn’t hesistate to fork out more than 120 bucks to register every year
altho i jus read dont dis on my suju boys i still wana say the popseoul comment on suju’s failure to garner more official fans than TVXQ reli funny XD
Congrats to TVXQ and all the Cassiopeians be it official or non official <333
lol@elves making sorry excuses for the failure of suju boys (don’t get me wrong i love the eye candy even though he can’t act or sing to save his life) .
Its so funny how people always makes excuses, and lol@E.L.F and ShinwaChangjo, they must be tearing their eyes out of anger because of this Guiness thingo (at least in soompi they are LOL), which isn’t actually that huge of a deal, official fanclubs are only a big deal on Asia is not like dongBang-BB are super popular in the whole world lol.
I sent my text message too to textperts to show it to my shinhwa fangirl friend, she was sooo pissed off (and they say cassiopeia are lunatics, only cos shinhwa changjo are silent murderers ahaha xD)
@ Wish
“Since pple stated that DBSK has the biggest fanbase in Asia then what happen to Rain? his fanbase should be much bigger isnt”
Nope. Rain isn’t really popular now tbh, is something like Boa, everyone knows them but is not like everyone is ‘fan’ of them.
“and those crazy Cass actually SPEND their money to registered ever year to be member and not counting more money on the boys bdays, special celebration day and more make up day to celebrate
NOw that’s is craziiiiieestttt fanbase”
Which planet are you from? You think KooKoo-pea are the only ones doing that? ALL korean fangirls do those stuff.
“Suju fans more subtle and Suju hasnt spread their wings to Asia yet so cant compare
Im not DBSK or Suju fans. Im my own fan ahahahahha”
No, you are an E.L.F in disguise, but we can see right tru you -,- . Because you can really call elves ’subtle’ when they do their Riot thingos outside SM building or when they kill push to suicide random girls. And if you think that’s subtle you should really really really worried about your mental sanity.
=x
Oh that’s cool for them (and dbsk) if its true ^^
But one thing, why compare Suju’s fan to Dbsk’s one ? why compare DBSK & Suju?
Super junior has been there for only 2 years, they are focused only on S.Korea for the moment so why bring the Elves into this article??
If you are hating them, then just hate but don’t say nonesense like this….
Anyway Suju & DBSK fighting ^^
cassiopeia really did a lot for TVXQ..
im a TVXQ fans…
n
i like them cuz they r really talented…
n 800k is juz registered!!!
how bout the one not registered?????
im proud to b in it!!!!
TVXQ r getting more world recognition from year to year
n stop comparing SJ n TVXQ..
is not fair…
n
congrats oppa!!
i noe u guys can do it
chukahaeyo!!!
Who would be surprise?! they are just the best in everything…would you even be surprise, if one day they will be considered as the Best Boyband in the world…they’re actually getting there^^
I wonder when their success will stop…not that I want to…
Oh well…I’m not a Cassiopeian and will never be one…but I love my DBSK =3……………….^^
I wanna believe it’s a fact…and to consider that there are still a lot of us not registered from around the world. But I do hope the official details about this will come out very soon.
dbsk is too conservative
super junior is funnier and they show more personality…whether they’re real or fake
as for the fans, it’s crazy to waste money just to be in the fanbase. America doesn’t have those stuff…I don’t think haha
but funny-ness is not the only reason why DBSK gets fans. they’re actually pretty funny most of the time, but we love them cause of so many other reasons.
Just because fan clubs don’t exist in the states doesn’t mean their stupid or meaningless. 800 000 registered members is pretty awesome, regardless of anything else.
If people can spend money buying concert merchandise, or fan merchandise for anything else like sports, i don’t see how it’s stupid.
For cassiopeians, it’s a show of support.
If the elves managed this, i’m sure you’d be happy about the accomplishment just as much as cassiopeians are in this case.
Yeah I know what you mean lol. As for the elves accomplishing these things…I dont think I would care so much for it haha these stuff are not really a big deal in the U.S. anyways.
i believed this so hopefully but then…
me and my friends already scanned every bit of the book but no DBSK word can be seen wherever you may search it!!!
i totally believe that there are so many fans and i am totally one of them but please don’t disappoint us.. i’m depressed already!
loving DBSK still! hope this is true though…
conclusion: ugh. fiction
i never thought they put such thing in the Guinness world record. hahahaha guess i need to open my eyes moer lols
Why u calling SUJU “super mob” gosh, RESPECT!! ha i bet u dont even have any. at least suju is still getting to be known they’ve only been here for two years i think and dbsk is 5 now.
gosh, it’s been that long already? no wonder they have they most fans *nods* yeaps. DBSK is the what i call TRUE IDOLS. they got everything and can do anything!
so i do think it is true but i need to check i’m not really into those guinness world record. even though i knew people trying to break a record.
“made it on the 2008 Guinness World Records ”
It’s on 2009. Plus, this is confirmed.

*rolling on the floor*
*teary eyed*
oh my, oh my..lol=D
so boa doesnt exist. neither do any of the triple platinum selling american artists.
someone said dbsk is too conservative and suju are the funny guys? i don’t think they’re too conservative…they’re serious when they work and they have fun when they’re not on camera. that’s how professionals are.
i’m not saying i don’t like suju’s playfulness or anything, but i think they’re mainly popular because of the silly stuff they do. but keep in mind: suju are singers, not comedians. they have to stick to singing if they want to be labeled as singers.
congrats to dbsk!
HMM. My guess was true as well. Popseoul is a DBSK fan base. No wonder poseoul keep bashing suju for their DBSK oppas. Little cassopians are this mean. Even though I like DBSK as well but I cant see popseoul keep bashing suju. Lille cassopias.
sara a, shut it

ahahaha
i think the fans are this crazy^^ we’ll still be happy as long as they are. and also i’ll still adore them no matter what even if they’re married or not hahaha!
It’s all phoney to me.
I mean, is this weird to say, but think Britney spears, Madonna, Mariah Carey, gosh, even Whitney houston.
Their fanbase is smaller than DBSK??? I mean, puh-leases!!!
its so freaking true!!! there’s this service available in britain where you can text them on the latest world records. there was a dispute on soompi about this…and somebody on LJ settled it out. which should make every tvxq fan proud. i mean, those were only the official ones… XD
I don’t get why a lot of people are saying that ELFs or SUJU fans are crying over this news. I’m a SUJU fan (although not an official ELFs) and I’m not crying my heart out or even care about this.
“They have more than twice the members and they failed to gather twice as many fans.” => just because SUJU has more members than DBSK doesn’ mean they have to gather twice as many fans. It’s like saying since DBSK is five people, so they have to have wayyyy (five times more) more fans than Boa or Elvis presley.
Also, the fact that DBSK has way more fan doesn’t mean anything. SUJU is better in every way than DBSK for me. I said “for me” only, so if you a DBSK fan or cassiopeia, no need to bash me down or trash talk. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
as awesome as it would be for this to be true… i can’t find this in this year’s book of world records.
POPSEOUL FAILED AS A RESOURCE FOR KOREAN ENTERTAINMENT AND STYLE.
You know it.
First of all, this news is true. Second, how come you compared DBSK and SuJu popularity when DBSK debuted 2 years earlier than SuJu? Of course DBSK is much more popular internationally. If SuJu’s fan is as much as them, it’s an insult for them instead since their dongsaeng in music industry is much more popular and successful than them.
SuJu is following the same success than DBSK experience. Just give them time, they will prove to everybody that they can be like DBSK. Many doubt of their success when they early debuted but they instead prove everybody wrong AGAIN and AGAIN.
And SuJu does not intend to be only singers. Since their members are a lot, they also ventures in other things as well, not only focusing on music. DBSK care if people can them idols instead of singers. But not SuJu since they also expert in other areas as well.
~ BTW, I heard how biased PopSeoul is. I guess it’s true after all….
yea!!
of course it’s true!!!
i’m so proud of these boys!!
they really rocks!!
n that’s really only the official ones…
think of how many unofficial ones outside there… =)
@lord_jedi
yes i agree with you… TVXQ is more experienced than suju… they have been in entertainment industry 2 years longer than suju… now what suju get is like what tvxq get in 2005-2006… please they will doing more activities in China and Taiwan this year… same like what TVXQ did in Japan in 2006…
so to all SUJU antifans please shut up, esp. POPSEOUL…
SO BAD AND UNLUCKY TO HAVE A CASSIOPEIA LIKE YOU!!
ngawww i read one of the comments which is way up there ^ lols
and it said they werent in the 2008 edition
and do you know waht i did. i looked in the 2006 – 2008 edition and i couldnt find them and i took my time and wasted time just to find them ROFL
Pfft, they didn’t make it into the book. Why? I wasted my time looking through that book and did I find them? Nope. These are lies. I mean, yeah DBSK has a large fanbase, but I’m sure there are tons of singers that have a large one. And why are you ALWAYS comparing DBSK to Super Junior? Super Junior has only been around for a while! they’ve just recently debuted in 2005, and DBSk debuted in.. ( dunno and don’t care.) Super Junior will show all of Asia their true talents. once they spread their wings, all of Asia will realize how good they are. SuJu may lack vocal talents, but they are handsome, and very well known. I think suju is the most kindest, loving, boy band in all of Asia. Take it from an E.L.F.
