So you know how sometimes companies or shows will prank an idol or a group? Usually the prank goes over decently well and doesn't cause any intense emotions.
However, not every prank is like this, including the two I'm gonna share today. There are many more I know of which I won't talk about, so if you have an example feel free to comment it!

Jackson-GOT7 and His Mom
Jackson was pranked 2 times based on the topic of seeing his mom.
#1. Doni and Coni: Jackson had been doing some kind of show with several other idols that was hosted by the duo. The show had this competition that if won it meant the person would get to travel abroad anywhere with Doni and Coni. Jackson is from Hong Kong, and he rarely gets to see his family, so of course he was excited, tried his hardest, and won.
Later on GOT7's manager was speaking to the duo and said that Jackson wouldn't be able to go due to a schedule. Instead of them telling Jackson and leaving him disappointed but not nearly as upset, they didn't. Instead they told Jackson they would meet him so they could drive to the airport early the next morning. When Jackson got into the van with Doni and Coni they started to hype him up about being able to go home and see his parents. Then they arrive at the airport and Doni and Coni get out and tell Jackson to stay in the van to change into darker clothing. They told the driver to just start driving off once the van door closed. Doni and Coni then address the camera stating their "apologies" to Jackson over the scheduling mess up. As this is happening the driver begins to drive away with Jackson so he can go to a schedule at Music Bank. Doni and Coni waved at him and started laughing at the prank. Jackson was of course very confused and thought he was getting pranked, well he was just not the one he hoped for.
This one just absolutely crushes my heart. It was incredibly malicious on part of Doni and Coni. They really hurt Jackson, and I don't know how he was able to interact with them after that happened.

#2. Roommates: Jackson was on another show called 'Roommates'. I don't really know the context of the show so I won't even try to describe it. Basically they told Jackson that they were able to get his Mom to fly from Hong Kong to Korea to see his upcoming performance. In a previous episode Jackson had expressed his longing to see his Mother and how much he loved her and meant to him. So, what do they do, they take advantage of that. They feed Jackson the lie that his Mom would be coming until they actually get backstage. They tell him that she is waiting outside and she would come if he called out to him. And so Jackson very enthusiastically starts shouting for his Mom, until his one of his roommates walks in instead. He knew he had been maliciously pranked at this point and looked very crestfallen. In a later interview on the show he said that he almost cried in that instance.
My heart is hurting again for Jackson. :(💜

Can you think of any pranks that went too far?

Clc's ghost prank.
Or when they prank idols about there group disbanding.
I haven't seen CLC's ghost prank, I don't think.

Oh yeah, the pranks about disbandment.

Or the pranks about their health, like I saw this one in a compilation and they were pranking someone from Apink, I believe, and told her she only had 3 months to live.

The ghost prank on Lovelyz was too much. Especially when Mijoo started crying for her mom. That's way too far, poor girl looked so terrified.

Jihyo screaming back at the ghost will always make me giggle though.
my first thought when i saw this thread was the lovelyz ghost prank and mijoo. watching it was so horrible, i cant believe they kept going with the prank even with mijoo being that scared.... pranks are supposed to be in good fun, its not fun if someone is that scared

I often think about the fake fight pranks. some examples, by victim: park jihoon and jeong sewoon in pd101s2, euna kim in the unit, ayno (vav) in no mercy.

as a viewer its really entertaining (all the drama and spectacle of a real fight but with none of the consequences) but i know if my friends did this to me, especially on my birthday, i'd be so upset.

The one with Jackson you mentioned. Also the one I saw of Hendery with the frogs prank.
I was gonna say this one. I felt so bad for Hendery, that prank went too far. That's like the worst way to overcome a fear. You don't just shove what the person's scared of in their face, it can make the fear even harder to overcome by doing that.

Exaclty! The treatment for phobias is exposure therapy, which is a gradual process. You don't just through them at it the first time.
