>She was already seeing the guy in 2010>Even if they weren't in a relationship, they had had consensual sexual intercourse before.>She didn't report it after it happened, didn't takk about it to anyone else>And if it wasn't rough, and she didn't go to a hospital and have a rape kit test, then that's even less evidence in her favor.
>It's very easy to make her claims seem like a smear campaign, and the guy could counter sue her for defamation, in the event that there isn't enough evidence to substantiate her claims>I'm not saying rape is okay, or that husbands can't rape their wives.

So does no one give a fuck about Jin? I never hear about him compared to JK, Jimin and V which is strange considering he’s supposed to be the best looking of tue group. His voice is pretty weak and he doesn’t offer anything to the group imo but we all know how focused on looks the idol industry is, so why isn’t he as popular as the others?
>>22946How many fucking times are they going to milk that underwhelming piece of shit song. I’m sure they have plenty of people who would send in a demo for a basic song which they could just slap Teddy’s name on. The fact that they’ve been a group for like 3+ years now and probably have less than 20 songs with no full album is sad. 2NE1 released a full album with their debut and had la handful of hits within their first year, and even they got shafted with releasing stuff but managed to have some goddamn stage presence.

Suga seems like he wants to retreat from the cameras/fans imo. Doesn’t tweet unless he has to, doesn’t engage as much online anymore. Unlike Jimin, he’s probably disturbed and annoyed by fans.
Also, you all seem to think he’s somehow not being manipulated by his shit company. Dude would do anything for music and/or money, he’s desperate. You heard Beenzino’s song haven’t you? He was offered a spot in BTS but only if he got a jaw shave and he told them to fuck off. Suga didn’t have the guts to do that. Probably thinks it’s normal to sacrifice his face for his future in music. Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s weak to that type of manipulation.

How ungrateful do you have to be to constantly shit on not only your country but all "westerners" (what even is this? should we call koreans "easterners" now?!), when they're just spoiled brats sitting in their comfy rooms on their new macbooks.
When k-netizens use "westerners" it's often meant in a degrading way, but of course they don't get that and use it too - but never on themselves, because they're different than all those dirty westerners around them…
Hippies had long hair since the 60s, american musicians already wore makeup and dressed very sparesly during the 70s and 80s and emo bands with guys in eyeliner and skinny jeans boomed in europe of the 2000s.
Meanwhile in Korea not too long ago they could have arrested you for being a too long haired guy (or shave you on the street) or a women with a too short skirt and in the year of 2019 students still can't have their hair dyed or wear makeup.
But yes, so woke and perfect.

heechul being as obnoxious as he is is playing his cards pretty well if he isn’t gay. at the same time, though, homosexuality is stigmatized as all hell in sk so i’m not sure how he gets away with it even if it is just an act…
No. 23268
>>23265The country is obviously super homophobic but I remember seeing some shows with Hong Seok-cheon and he's stated he's gay, so I don't think it's the biggest issue in the world unless you're an idol. I'm also pretty sure I've seen some dramas with gay characters.
I'm not saying that other entertainers don't have a terrible time when coming out, but I think there's a lot of stigma with idols in particular being gay? Considering they have to pander to girls, so it's clearly not the best for them to state their sexuality.
I remember seeing a Knowing Bros episode with that guy and they seemed to have a good time, they were not stoning him or something. But who knows, maybe behind scenes it wasn't as nice. He clearly has a good career as a gay man, so it's not impossible.
No. 23271
>>23270I figured, but it's nice to see he's at least featured on some shows and fellow comedians seem OK with him? It must had sucked so much, poor guy. I really hope SK changes, are younger generations super homophobic too?

>>23145Jin was trained as an actor and even graduated from a good university with an acting degree (he did well too). If Bighit put him in more acting projects he'd probably do a lot better. He probably wouldn't be a huge star but he'd be better off than screeching high notes he can't reach and being in the background. But even in the acting stuff Bighit has for BTS in their trailers, videos etc the big roles go to other people, especially V and JK.
I think Jin reminds me of Got7's Mark in that even though he's the main visual he just doesn't really stand out as the other visual members. On top of that, like Jisoo of BP he's not given any opportunities to shine except his once a year MC gig. JK and RM are Bang's favorites so that shouldn't be surprising.

>>231942NE1 often didn't have hard choreo so they didn't need to do complex steps they just needed energy and Bom and Dara gave that. Bom was kind of like the Posh spice of the group but she still served when she needed to.
BlackPink just have zero passion and they're likely out of practice. Their company, fans, the industry emphasize their looks so they likely spend more time making sure they look good on stage than actually getting their steps right….and they're all going to suffer for it in the end career-wise.

Nobody will take BP seriously either but their label is promoting the shit out of them and probably have radio deals in place.

However, with BTS being as popular as they are now, Jin’s doing better as an idol than he probably ever would have as an actor. I assume it’s tought to break into acting in South Korea if it’s anything like Hollywood, although feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.
Jin may very well be dying on the inside from having to sing silly songs and pandee to annoying tweens, but he’s probably better off financially as a BTS member than an actor.

Ikon and Winner aren't as well known as BP - they only have one hit song each - but they produce their own music and make good money from touring, so they get more comebacks.

https://www.allkpop.com/forum/threads/im-here-dropping-some-gossip-on-you.86838/
> 9.The rampant prostitution isn't going away. It's just hiding better.I told you point 9 would be depressing.
>Back in 2009-2012, managers who worked for "sponsors" basically did their business out in the open with no repercussions. Girls were traded like playing cards, and for the right price you could get a "date" with just about any girl (or boy!) you wanted. No one was safe; even certain members of the big groups have been offered for "sale", although apparently the prices were a bit too high for most men's taste and, disturbingly enough, were often too old to be considered.>The "prime" (ugghh) age for "acquisition" (and here I am quoting directly) "appears to be idols aged 16-19 or trainees as young as 12". The bigger the agency, the heavier the price. All agencies are guilty of this. All of them. SM Trainees go for (again, I am quoting direcly) "at least 1 million won/hour, with idols costing upwards of 10 to 100 million won, of which the idol may see 10% of that". Younger idols from small agencies can go "for as little as a few thousand won for the whole night, if the agency is desperate enough".>Once "bought" (I'm going to puke), the victim basically has to do whatever the buyer wants. 95% of the time this is sex, but other men (and it's almost always men) have more… unconventional tastes. I'm going to stop there before I actually do puke.>And yes, I do have (some) names, despite them being closely guarded secrets. No, I'm not going to engage in victim-shaming and drop those names, so don't even fucking ask. Who are the buyers? No one really knows. It's believed that Korean buyers are the minority since they have a lot more to lose, but Japanese and Americans seem to be among the biggest buyers.>After several prostitution stings, the entire business went underground, and now it's believed that it mostly happens in places where the Korean government has less influence.>Rumor has it that MNet has "a large share" in this underground business.Think about that next time you watch an episode of Idol School.
>The girls are probably way more "popular" (they usually are in crime rings like this), but there are plenty of buyers for males; in these cases, it's usually men from ultra-conservative countries, so I would imagine its the same in Korea, who are getting them.Since delusional BTS fans are a hot topic here:

Sage for irrelevance(?) but
pic related is apparently from suga’s private ig a few years ago or something and the meaning is roughy equivalent to “I’m getting a lot of pussy these days…”
Can’t find the meaning for 포로 beyond captive, captivity
More literally it means “i’m afraid i’ve been in captivity a lot these days” which sounds in line with weird Korean slang for getting some but ??
anyway it sounds legit like something he’d say because we know he’s all about that braggadocio but I wonder if it’s real…

actually fuck mnets angel/evil editing in general with reality shows, they clearly know what sells otherwise they wouldn't keep making survival shows but they're filming everything 24/7 and their editing is not only technically garbage but overall garbage, you think they'd at least find more interesting content than the storylines they often decide to go with for trainees on these survival shows- that's how the talentless ones end up in the final group, if it were any trainee from the bottom 50 with a shred of talent who got the same sob storyline as the talentless hack trainees who get them they'd probably win too lmao

No one is going to listen to this song on the radio if they dare play it, their performance at Coachella will probably get dragged given what we've seen from the lame choreo and their concert is almost desperate to be poorly reviewed. Their album hasn't even been released. The digital is releasing almost a month from now and the physical two weeks after that so goodbye Billboard 200 results. So in lieu of this Blinks have no other recourse than to make BP break some meaningless youtube record no one will care about because those who even know about it will assume most of the views came from Indonesia.
Their American take over died before it even began the second this dropped. But Blinks fell for the mediaplay in thinking they were ever going to get out of the Kpop bubble and make an actual impact in America. Welp. Next.

>>23736>The nominees for Top Social Artist are Exo, BTS, GOT7, Ariana and some 1D guyThey are loading up on kpop acts in hope to raise their numbers because viewership falls year after year. Music award shows are boring and pointless, so instead of drumming up real interest they target kpop fans for EZ views? I kind of get it with BTS, plus they're probably an automatic nomination after winning last year, but are Exo and GOT7 really going to bring in a ton of viewers in the US? People might vaguely know of Exo, but afaik GOT7 is a no-name here. Of course you can vote no matter where you live though I think, so maybe they are somehow going to cash in on the inevitable kboo drama. They should just let companies pay for these spots and they would at least get BP and NCT money kek
Bring it home, Ariana and some 1D guy
>The nominees for Top Group are Maroon 5, Imagine Dragons, Panic at the Disco, Dan & Shay and fucking BTSIt is just a pity nomination like BTS' grammy nomination. They're throwing armies a bone because they always complain about wanting BTS to be taken seriously for their "deep", "inspirational" and "life saving" music and not just army views. One of the other groups will win, but armies will be satisfied anyway because their baby boys are finally considered serious artists! They were nominated for their MUSIC alongside well known groups like Maroon 5 and PATD after all!!!! And of course they remain more speshul than the other kpop boys that were invited.

>>23897If BTS (or anyone for that matter) paved the way to success for kpop groups in Europe/America, wouldn't there be some sort of current mainstream interest in kpop in the Europe/America? The way remains unpaved as far as I can tell. There aren't any mainstream kpop hits besides gangnam style, which also didn't really "pave the way" because there hasn't been one since. A wacky 2012 meme is the most impactful thing to come out of kpop.
Armies need to take a good look at BTS and ask themselves what they think they've actually achieved. They don't have a popular song, critical acclaim or any considerable achievements. All the time spent circlejerking on twitter alters reality I guess, because in their minds BTS are not only woke trans gay kings but also a household name in every country! BTS need to actually become successful themselves before they can cause anyone else's success.
>>23895Oh, definitely. I think this probably goes for probably all kpop acts, no normal person knows who they are despite what fans would like to think.

As said before, Jennie's family is well-off and probably had enough money/power to help catapult her career as successful idol. I mean, she probably didn't have to worry about trainee debts like other idols and probably had a leg up into entering a big three company.
It's evident that she possesses less charisma that a potted plant, is plain-looking without an idol makeover, and can't really dance, sing, or rap–yet she's out here living as a model with rabid, adoring fans that excuse her failures at being a competent entertainer/artist. Feel free to call me bitter but I feel bad for other naiive idols/trainees who likely work themselves a hundred times harder to the bone and never succeed, whereas Miss Human Chanel gets asspats regularly for existing.

And holy crap, Jennie looks super plain here–like she wouldn't stand out in a crowd at all if no one knew who she was. I've seen way prettier Asian girls without makeup here on a regular basis (live in an Asian enclave). Really shows that any fucker can become an idol lauded for their looks with just enough makeup, marketing, and plastic surgery.

>>24526I really don't think it's too much about western validation so much as western money. Korea is a fairly small country and it needs money from elsewhere to keep propping it up and to help their industry grow. T-ara pretty much became d-listers at home but they were able to keep going because they were still huge in China. Red Velvet, Twice, and a slew of other groups routinely do tours in Japan. There's that kpop convention that happens in the USA too.
The western market is huge and its not surprising they want a piece of the pie. Kpop has a quickly growing (rabid) audience that will consume any piece of media they're in, so of course the western media will want to try and get some hits off them too. It's mutually beneficial and even if not much money is made it still drums up publicity. I know mentioning them sends people into a tizzy, but Bts is the only group I can think of that really needed the west. Their fame shot up a lot in their home country thanks to that sudden explosion of hardcore international fans.
Damn, sorry turned into a long ass tangent.

Btw Dionysus is the god of Furor (meaning frenzy) which inspires the poet or causes chaos and leads to orgies. That with the wine, I think BTS' song will either be about being 'such great songwriters' (not sure about that though, it would mean they actually did some researches, which is unlikely) or being 'drunk in love', but without the sexual aspect ofc, that would ruin their UwU babyboy image.

I've seen older photos of Jimin and I think he had some good looks but he looks dreadful now.

>>24755even if they wait until the contract expires then they're still likely to be met with accusations of being a traitor, betraying the company, find it tough to find a new agency, and still have a few light blocks when it comes to promoting. there's a stupid level of loyalty that's expected even in the extremely rare situations where it's legally found that a company needs to change their contracts, like after the jyj fiasco that overhauled contract lengths. fans might claim that it's best for darling oppa to move to a company that gives him better haircuts but the general public is going to call you a traitor unless you have some serious proof that it was terrible. i have less sympathy for idols signing these contracts at 19+ years old, but i still don't think that them being an adult means they're totally to blame for signing bad contracts. it's not like companies pick 19 year olds off the street and they're dumb enough to sign, i imagine you'd be a lot more naive and vulnerable if you had been training under the company since you first started highschool and have it drilled into you that you're replaceable to the company but that they made you what you are. kpop contracts remind me of old hollywood (like 30s and 40s) film studio contracts, if anyone ever reads about those. the pre-2011 13 year contracts are especially fucked.
the risks of leaving shouldn't matter much if you're really suffering under your contract and have the money to take the risk, but if your only problem there is not having quite as much creative freedom as you want then it's worth just sucking it up and dealing with it instead of risking leaving, especially if they can negotiate a better contract after the first 7 years.

I hope the industry and the country can someday move on to broaden their beauty standards to ones that actually cover traits their race naturally has bc these mutilated faces and clownish stylings are doing nobody any favors. Even the attractive idols get shafted by how narrow the standards are.
>>24785The Jpop thread isn't called anti and has a pretty healthy mix of critical posts and some positive ones too ,though I admit to not reading every single post. I skim these threads usually. It's a shame kpop fans/antis can't tone their obsessions down to have some more nuanced discussion. I'd say nitpicks are fine bc it's part of the fun of gossip (outside of cow boards especially) but it's a bit frustrating to be called a stan just bc one isn't explosively hateful about a kpop idol. I'm not a fan of the genre and the fake faces do nothing for me but there are a few songs I've jammed to here and there, mainly from groups that get mentioned here bc I don't actually seek out kpop related content aside from this thread. Red Velvet comes to mind as an example. Sappy was a cute little pop song that I came across bc I searched their name on YT.
I have even less interest in consuming jpop but I've enjoyed that thread as well, it's interesting to talk about how the genre evolved and what the older artists are up to these days etc.
>>24805I think you're talking about how kpop fan spaces are extremely common online and it's really obnoxious. I would agree with that sentiment. Often times I'm more interested in laughing at the incredibly vapid fans rather than the actual artists bc they latter are just manufactured pop products in the end. Maybe more formulaic but no less creatively bankrupt than western pop acts. The fans are fascinating, though.

She was an obnoxious creep with a plastic face and average body and somehow still spent months as the top female idol, it's crazy. Remember when she said her hips were so wide she couldn't wrap a blanket around them? Or when she got an Xray on her face to prove she hadn't had surgery and you could see huge chunks of her jaw missing? At least her antics were fun to laugh at.

>>24914Anytime you speak about this dude's plastic surgery nctfags come at you all defensive thinking everyone has a hate boner for him. I don't give a fuck about him but that is NOT a "natural" face.
Anyways I'm pretty sure some of the things he got was work on his freaky jaw, a nose job, eye-stretching surgery, and botox shots all over his face.

>>24945Rose's fans tend to be the most vocal that she is the best idol at everything: dancing, acting, singing, etc. And would be this massive superstar if only YG paid attention to her and gave her some promotion.
Thing is, YG did put her in a bunch of singing and comedy varieties, even had IU sending messages through the media saying she wanted to work with her. They TRIED, but she flopped because she's the least interesting and least visually appealing member of the group. Jennie is a boring flop but at least she can pull of chic to a better extent, not to mention she was the one who went viral on Running Man when they were all on and all had equal opportunity. Rose being able to speak English coherently in an interview seems to be the main reason why her stans are convinced she'll be some American it girl….
Rose's fans are like Got7 Youngjae fans constantly whining about how she doesn't get her fair shake when in reality, when you're the least popular member in every country there's likely a good reason for that.

Their musical acts are often obscure and sometimes unheard of as well so honestly it isn't that big of an achievement to be a brief musical act on SNL, unless they get to start in sketches like other musicians (Ariana, Justin Bieber, etc) which I don't think is going to happen.
I said the same thing about Time Magazine and BTS fans were quick to try and prove me wrong. Yes, at one time Time Magazine covers were a huge achievement. But Time basically lost all of their dignity after they put the scummy Boston Bomber's mugshot as their cover back in 2013. Them putting BTS on the cover was a cash grab because these media outlets know/are figuring out that kpop fans are crazily dedicated to the extent that they're willing to shell out money.

>>25126CL was cringey as fuck for most of her career. She got shit on for just shouting loud and yelling over her other members trying to sing instead of actually putting on a good performance, for not writing her own stuff and not being skilled when she did, for networking and taking photos with any celebrity who'd get near her, and she tried to push herself as the female GD without having anything to back it up (not that GD is a high bar, but she couldn't even hit that). She'd talk about never having surgery despite having surgery, pull her 'not like the other girls' stuff every so often, made some pretty embarassing comments about gay men over the years, she was raised very middle class and traveled and went to expensive international schools - like BlackPink - and tried to pull her bad hood bitch stuff and rap about having Jheri curls and fighting girls. The only person she'd fight is Jennie and it's really embarassing how CL only comes online now when BP are in headlines, she practically abandoned her Instagram and just happened to pop up when BP were about to comeback. There's no way it's a coincidence.
She had bigger thighs, was openly LGBT supportive (none of the Twitter reaching stuff, also had a thing about calling herself "your girl's lesbian crush" for a while, when would Sunmi), had some charismatic performances when she wasn't just yelling, did stand up for being something a little different than the norm and not feeling like she had to be a super skinny and pale aegyo baby - obviously people liked her for being different. She was still embarassing and she killed her own career as much as anyone else did when she abandoned her internet presence. She was already more known for fashion stuff than music, then she quit that and took to just occasionally coming online to vaguetweet. She got fucked over by a music label, but so many artists can say the exact same thing and they manage to not demolish the only credibility they already have just out of spite. She's back online now anyway, she's into sound healing and crystals now.
I get being so consumed by BlackPink induced anger that you ignore that Loona, Red Velvet, Twice etc are all also very skinny, untalented, spoiled, but I can't believe the opinion on CL has come so full circle that now she's remembered for having good raps and being a good performer.

I've heard speculation that she's mixed, a translation fan account says she isn't, she's never said anything about it, but she gives me mixed vibes. Her predebut photos look similar to her current appearance so I'm thinking she hasn't had much surgery yet. She was raised in New York so it could be possible one of her parents is American.

>>25201>>25202>>25203I remember coming across a Reddit comment from someone who claims to be family friends with Yunjin and said she's fully Korean. She really passes off as a hapa though so who knows.
Anyway might have been brought up before but KARA's Gyuri is the most non-Korean-looking Korean idol I have ever seen. With Asian idols who have gotten a ton of work done, they tend to look like bloated Asian-alien hybrids. So even if Gyuri's gotten surgery to achieve her current look, she already had some pretty unconventionally East Asian features.
