饭圈

Meaning

"Fanquan (fan circle)" is the world of fans who follow celebrities. It's short for "fansi quanzi (fan circle)" and doesn't necessarily refer to a specific fan group. For example, Liu Yifei's fans and Liu Shishi's fans both belong to the larger "star-chasing" fanquan. When referring to specific fan groups, prefixes are added - like Korean fan circles are called "Han fanquan" and Japanese fan circles are "Ri fanquan."
