Recently in the idol fandom, being a 'bot' replying on Twitter and doing 'as if' you were a member is trending.

Since the saved posts in an appointed time appear randomly in the database, the administrators of the twitter-bots manage the posts, they talk to the fans instead of the starts and develop bonds of sympathy.

Even if the fans aren't receiving replies from the idol they like, they're still satisfied and find a new kind of joy.

Most of the idol singers have a twitbot, these twitbots can be close between each others and show a different image. Teen Top's Niel and SHINee's Key, Niel and Taemin, etc, those twitbots are talking with each others and build virtual friendships.

On the other hand, besides the idol member bots, there's also the 'Mom-bot', 'Dad-bot', 'Ex-boyfriend-bot', etc, the various bots all have their own characteristics, they of course are very popular and are a new way to communicate.
