but that's just my own personal experience with them. korean based kpop fans, well, i know nothing about haha.

Really
? I didn't want to bring this up but it's mostly Jpop fans who hate Kpop, not vice versa, all the Kpop fans I've met either like Jpop as well or simply have zero interest in it.
From what I've seen (here and in Arama), a lot of Jpop fans are bitter because Kpop is gaining a lot more attention than Jpop and because they think Jpop is oh-so-superior to Kpop.
I think that Kpop fandom's main negative point is the loud and obnoxious fans, while Jpop's negative point is the elitist ones
