A group of internet bullies that have too much time on their hands. Mostly in K-Pop fandom. They will nitpick Idols for the smallest thing. More likely to target female Idols than their male counterparts.
Fan 1:Did you hear the news about Seolhyun and Zico's breakup?
Fan 2:I did, I think it's horrible that netizens bullied Seolhyun about their relationship.

Just as a "citizen" is a member of a country, a "netizen" is a member of the internet. However, this term is overhyped and inaccurate Web 2.0 self-love for the following reasons:

- Citizens have legal rights regarding free expression and protection against illegal harassment and discrimination. Netizens do not.
- Citizens have legal responsibilities to their country including refraining from illegal harassment and discrimination. Netizens do not.
- Citizens are defined by their country, thus tied to a geographical location and forced to face the consequences of their opinions, choices and actions in that country. Netizens are not.
- Citizens are personally identifiable. Netizens are not.
