K-pop fans crashed the telephone and e-mail support lines of South Korea's $900 billion pension fund, in anger over the departure of a member of popular boy band Enhypen, whose management firm the fund holds a stake in. 

Kim Sung-joo, chairman and CEO of the National Pension Fund, revealed what had happened on Facebook on Wednesday, and urged Enhypen fans against further disrupting its services, saying that their actions had inconvenienced workers in Korea and abroad seeking pension advice.
