Abstract

Background: Freedom in digital transformation development has led to abuse, resulting in sexual harassment, such as the “incest fantasy” community. This community sparked public controversy because it deviated from the norm. Despite the bans and arrests, people are still talking about this issue. Comments on YouTube videos are one example. Purpose: Observing sentiment polarization on comments and mapping dominating actors are the goals of this research. Method: This research maps and analyzes the network established by YouTube video and comments linked to the “incest fantasy” group using a Social Network Analysis (SNA) technique, which uses quantitative approaches. Results: The tvOneNews channel has the greatest centrality degree (CD = 27; CC = 0.88; CB = 0.022) according to the findings. A central community is shown via an analysis of comments on TVOneNews programming, encircled by several smaller groups or individuals. This indicates that YouTube comments are not a space for social discourse. The average sentiment level is moderate, indicating that the public is neither overly biased nor neutral, but rather tends toward criticism. Conclusion: There is a dominant actor in the network, but their role is merely a trigger and does not significantly influence the discourse. Analysis of the comments also indicates polarization, with neutral sentiment predominating. Implications: This research enriches communication studies by applying graph theory to enable network mapping and monitoring of discourse development in comments.

Abstract

This study aims to examine how digital vigilantism emerged as a form of cancel culture within the NCTzen fan community in response to the Moon Taeil case. This study focuses on understanding how the collective reaction of fans in the digital space transformed moral judgments into organized social action. The object of this study is the online behavior of NCTzen on social media platforms, specifically Instagram, TikTok, and X (formerly Twitter), after the emergence of the case. Using a qualitative approach with digital ethnography, this study relies on data from social media observation and in-depth interviews with two NCTzen members. Findings indicate that digital vigilantism operates through three main practices: pursuit, exploited visibility, and lateral surveillance, which collectively facilitate the emergence of boycott culture as a form of collective pressure. These practices enable fans to mobilize symbolic and social sanctions aimed at upholding shared moral values. The discussion shows that cancel culture functions both as a mechanism for expressing disappointment and as a means of strengthening solidarity and moral responsibility within the fandom. However, this study also highlights the ambiguous nature of these practices, as they simultaneously contribute to internal conflict and fragmentation among fans. In conclusion, this research shows that fandom communities have significant power in driving collective digital movements, positioning them as influential actors in contemporary digital culture.
