Anyway, her whole schtick is definitely a persona made up by the old men in her agency, she's just playing into the sexy-but-not-oversexualized stereotype that all men have of lesbians.
>when they are eating it upTwitter trends mean absolutely nothing. Her last album sold 8k copies (less than even Yuri) and her tour venues have 800 seats at most; armys will hype her up but spend all their money on BTS, and now that she's decided to queerbait more the Korean public might not like that either.
This move won't work for very long, expect her to drop a #MeToo themed album when she finds the likes and RTs lessening.

Video of Sunmi saying she has a "LGBT side":
https://twitter.com/chaengseuls/status/1136004737550229505Pic related is her going on stage with a rainbow flag during Warsaw concert.
She's obviously queerbaiting, but I wonder if this is going to be good for her career in Korea? Even "woke kings" BTS, who rely on international fans, have been extra vague (aka haven't said shit) about LGBT and stuff. Even if it's just baiting, it's a pretty bold move.

They could’ve easily gone to the authorities (not the police obviously, but there are other avenues) or just made it public and dealt with the lawsuit fees, but their fame and money was more important to them. If one of the bts members turned out to be supplying date rape

>Atomic Bomb BoysKoreans stay classy.
Knetz and retarded BTS fans have been harassing that group constantly and making up tons of insane rumors about them. The ironic thing is that they are part of LDH aka Exile's company and their company has been doing this sound and style since BTS were in elementary school. The only reason that they have any similarities is because kpop has been lifting from American hip hop and jmusic since it's inception.

>>34645Because groups like that are made and managed and even the members are chosen with a different marketing strategy in mind. Groups like Twice were created purely to be marketed towards mouth breathing incels and pedos, so it doesn't matter if they have talentless members and shit songs as long as the members fit the marketing scheme and please their incel fans.
Mamamoo has the strong woman wanna-be concept, so the members were chosen purposely for this concept. They tried to choose artists that are better singers than the average idol and they also gave them songs with a more western vibe.
Red Velvet has the dual concept going on and I'm not sure what the initial marketing strategy was because honestly SM seems to not be able to really stick to a strategy and they are all over the place. But they chose Wendy and Seulgi which are definitely above the average idol when it comes to talent, Irene and Joy are average but Irene is really pretty according to Korean standards and then they added Yeri for some reason, I think they might have added her for pedo points.

This Japanese tv show even tried to break down the reasons of why that is: they're hot and therefore girls admire them while insecure males feel intimidated (and that's also why Twice will never be the 2nd SNSD).

You'd automatically think they're hot just cause there's so many of them, wearing the same sexy outfits and do synchronized sexy dances.
When you look at them individually, none of them are beauties imo.

I never claimed that they're super beautfiful, "hot" doesn't neccessarily mean attractive face, just that good body + short outfits + high heels is too much for your typical uncle fan who usually only lusts after innocent, girl-next-door types. They look too confident for them.

So apparently, bts had been invited to become members of the 'Recording Academy'class of 2019. Someone explained from the comments that it was supposed to be a group of people who votes for grammy award winners on 2020.

>>34679i believe it was a collab for the soundtrack of their upcoming game that was probably mentioned on the previous thread.
Anyway, bts were clout chasers ever since jungkook covered that charlie puth song. They realised how big of an impact it has when they latch onto foreign/western acts so they grab every oppurtunity to collab. Plus they are narcissistic and thinks they were some top tier A+++ boyband that doesn't deserve sharing the fame with fellow korean artists because they weren't previleged like them when starting up and started from the ground with a dirt poor company. I mean, if they don't think highly of themselves too much now they would have tried collabing with fellow koreans and be the humble kings ratmys claims them to be or something. I mean, psy did collab with hyuna too despite collabing with snoopdog at the height of his popularity. Psy didn't try to collab with every single american artist left and right.

But dumb tumblrinas and twitter stans would probably say that light makeup and the likes
are korean culture in itself and therefore us or euro girls doing that too are culturally appropriating.

>>34899Apparently it happened again today.
She absolutely needs to take a break from touring/promotions or YG at least needs to make a public statement addressing her physical or mental health because it’s not okay for people to get sick literally every day at work.
It also seems like a mental thing (depression, anxiety etc) rather than a physical illness because sometimes she can put on decent performances with good energy and is clearly in a good mood, depending on the event or location (coachella or other major appearances) but when she’s otherwise not excited about her job that day, she’s suddenly physically ill?
I get the impression she isn’t taking care of her mental health because a Korean company like YG wouldn’t prioritize that in their workers and probably don’t provide her with counseling or psychological assessments, so who knows how she’s coping with her career, but it seems like she’s blatantly not coping at all right now.

Back before the Burning Sun thing CDAN (blind item site, it's hit and miss whether the shit posted on there is real or not) had a blind item about a Korean girl group member being made to sleep with a high-up at Coachella to get them in the festival. Blackpink were the only Kpop girl group to play Coachella.

When googling that I couldn't help but notice how much prettier the idols back then were.

sunmi at the very least waved the flag, which has a lot of meaning to lgbt people fighting for pride. if she was pandering, it felt like she was pandering to her actually gay base. bts always comes across like everything they do is meant to pander toward (mostly foreign) straight teenage girls, and that any sj characteristics are just to fuel the fantasy of a woke oppa.

It's really not an accomplishment to tell your European fans that you're supporting gay rights.
They all jumped on this trend because kpop has become more international so they try to get woke points because it obviously worked for bts.

That said, I think Yuqi is more… animated than the others… the others all feel dead eyed

but later shinee had a pretty consistent formula for line distribution based on the members vocal color and center status (taemin is super vocally limited but pushed as center, etc), and once you hear onew’s fanboy and decide which rap verse is butch enough for minho, the remaining members parts are pretty apparent… it’s not unlike sm to hold onto track for a long time (Russian roulette?) and they probably blew a bunch of money on the 5hinee 10th anniversary that never happened/want to recoup costs.

>>35060Holy shit, as a Shinee fan this makes me really sad. Ever since JH passed and Taemin's solo has been gaining traction, Shinee is basically done so I expect more of these Shinee demos to be given to NCT.
I don't feel like it's a smart move though. Shinee gained a fanbase of older women with their first single and then moved gradually into the electronic stuff but it feels like NCT hasn't pandered and established a direct demographic as their audience. NCT Dream was very successful with their first two singles as appealing to 'noona' fans but last I checked, SM has thrown away the 'younger' concept for them which is ultimately going to screw them over as well.
Might also be worth mentioning that Exo gained a lot of fans in their Growl era which aesthetically was known for the school uniforms and probably appealed to the average Korean girl. If SM was to replicate the same boy-next-door pandering for NCT as they did with NCT Dream previously, I think they'd have better luck.
>>35038Rose is basically Bom at this point. Maybe Lisa will get some vocal lessons and become the Minzy of the group, who surprisingly became undoubtably the best singer out of the four by 2014. I have no hope for Jennie or Jisoo since their vocal tones are so grating and will still be unpleasant to listen to even if they receive proper vocal training.

>>35088I didn't see this, but now I'm realizing that you're right and that NCT Dream has consistently been using that image up until now. But SM is using a graduation system for them iirc which seems like a bad idea considering they're the ones who got the entire NCT system their first music show win.
I don't know why it is but I agree with you that these kids are a hell of a lot better as a group than the older members. NCT 127 has better sales than Dream but I think the added promotion and tours is working in their favor, and if Dream were promoted in that same amount they'd be received far better.

Kek, YG has his hands in every cookiejar.

>>35370I honestly don't think that idols from other agencies could take anything illegal, it's just YG artists who all seem to think they're the bestest and the baddest and therefore act all "hood" while also being a Gucci queen/king.
All of them are so obnoxious and tryhard, no idea how anybody could like that. Them walking around on stage is not improvising or being true hip hop artists, they're only too lazy to dance.
And remember, it's not been that long ago that Top was caught - a normal Korean would have been punished severely - but beause of YG's media play and bribery (and because Top acted like a sad boi) he got away and barely lost any of his millions of asskissing fans.
>>35381I can't wait for the day Zico gets busted. Seolhyun's career got ruined because of him. How can anybody look at him and not see how sleazy and creepy he is? He's friends with everybody who's involved in the Seungri scandal, yet nobody thought of checking if he's done something too? At this point I think that he's rich enough to pay to silence people himself, without the help of his agency.

I never liked BI, he come off weird and tense, and he had most lines in songs with his unpleasant tone (not that the rest of Ikon doesn't serve shitty falsettos).

Anyway, I agree with you. I don't like him either. From what I know, he was a shady character right from the start. His father was involved in scamming people and was caught and jailed. People literally protested having him debut but I guess Yg had a grand plan of making him gd 2.0 that's why he pushed through. From what I had watched too he seems to be yg's favorite because he seems reliable and even writes song for other groups.

I feel it may have been a trade off tbh.
SM's day is coming eventually. There was a lot of shit going on with SNSD that I believe hasnt come out yet and when it does its going to put the final nail in the OT9 coffin, which is going to cost them a LOT of money. And I believe SM has tried really hard to keep it quiet for whatever reason. The truth about Jessica, and why the other girls were literally being punished by the company(and eventually left minus the few) HAS to come out eventually. And I have a feeling Taeyeon has dealt with some shit too. Theres been a lot of stuff said over the years that really makes me side eye SM and how they've dealt with her and her depression and possible traumas that she has alluded to. I'll be perched.
No. 35492
>>35483kai's ladykiller image seems way more staged and fake to me. i think sm would be way more invested in protecting his heterosexual masc image than deflecting rumors for more blatantly flaming members.
in b4 >ew gross fujoshi ruin everything<; not an exo-l (too old), but in a large creative arts organization or a boyband, i would be shocked if everyone was heterosexual.
sm seems too straightlaced to allow for a yg drug scandal, and there is no existing template for navigating a gay scandal. it's never been done with a major idol, it's ruined the careers of the few non-idol's who've been caught, and it's grounds for exemption from military service–can you even imagine the toxicity of a gay draft-dodging scandal??
it's one of the main reasons i think that some of the more flamboyant talent have been reluctant to come out or even acknowledge lgbt anything; even of it's an open secret amongst fans and fujo fangirls would love it, the army thing would kill their careers.

>>35488Why would they do that when companies are fully aware of the catastrophic result of dating scandals? That would be shooting themselves in the foot. In the end companies would lose a lot of money because the fans would be really upset and ditch xyz idol(s)thus practically ending said idol's career which equals lost revenue for the company.
(And besides Sehun literally said he likes men and yet SM hasn't put him in a fake hetero relationship idk)
I really only think companies do that sort of thing to divert attention from other ongoing scandals.

> 1. [+4,014, -42] What I found the most disturbing about his Katalk conversation is the part where he mentioned that he does drugs to become a genius. That's not an idea that comes from personal experience. He obviously saw a famous star around him use drugs and have it lead to success and maybe even went around telling people that it was a source of inspiration for themselves, which is probably how BI came to that conclusion himself. Can't help but think that especially since he's under YG too. Anyway, this all just feels like YG cutting BI is just cutting the scandal at its tail.First: is GD getting officially cancelled soon?
Also tbh I agree with this:
> 9. [+160, -23] I just feel bad for him. Yes, I agree that he did something wrong and that he should take responsibility for that but he's still young and talented, and he also worked hard too. He's lost it all now over a moment of poor judgment. I just find it so weird that these kids start committing crimes the minute they join YG. A lot of them are naturally talented so I'm wondering if YG is putting them under a lot of pressure and possibly even providing criminal ways to escape that stress. YG has stood behind GD, TOP, Kush etc, so for them to cut BI out just seems like they're trying to cut the scandal at its tail.I actually feel bad for B.I if his self-esteem was so low that he'd think he could only write music on drugs when he's probably just emulating what "Jiyong-hyung" has probably said for years now.
We all know that GD is doing drugs harder than weed but YG is for sure paying people off to save his golden boy.

Through my friend, I met the stage director she knew through her Sugardaddy, through the stage director I met new friends, and through them etc, etc, etc. It was basically an avalanche.

rich people love cocaine and people around rich people almost always have access to it. it's a status symbol since it's so expensive per gram, and while it can be dangerous (meaning instantly
toxic and life-threatening), it usually isn't. cocaine mostly just makes you feel like a brilliant asshole on top of the world for 45 minutes, which flows wonderfully into kpop and any other entertainment industry requiring performative narcissism (or a denial of vulnerability and boundaries). it's quick to snort, meaning it can be easily done backstage or between shifts or whatever, but if a bunch of people are doing it a large quantity, it's not going to be neat, and cleaning up a bunch of residue would be enough of a bitch to gossip about. the reason why people use glass tables in 70s movies like scarface is just that–smooth surface, easy to corral into lines and easy to clean up.
speed is way more common in east asia, but it can also be snorted like cocaine. (if you don't want that yoochun aesthetic) i can see a less knowledgable passerby not being able to tell the difference.

Anons are right about this song being like 4 years old and probably a scrapped demo meant for Meghan Trainor. Yikes. She should have gone for something 'younger' than singing about shaking her ass.

>>35683I wonder why YG even bothers in the kpop industry, it looks like he only gives his idols comebacks to cover scandals or make him money for his shady dealings. The rest of the time he just leaves them to fade into obscurity. At this point his company just feels like a giant front for all this disgusting shit he's apparently involved in.
If YG wasn't already established as a big 3 company, it would have flopped a long time ago, just based off their shitty management.
No. 35689
>>35686i hope to see the complete downfall of this company within the next few years. A catalyst for this would be the loss of teddy-whether it's cause he's tired or no longer wants to be in yg, or because he'll be exposed for being involved in this whole drug thing.
Pretty much every yg song is produced by this dude and his songs always manage to do well.

What's the point in saying anything. You honestly know what happened, right? It's exactly as the news says.">In another interview with Han Seohee's lawyer Bang Jung Hyun, the lawyer revealed that Yang Hyun Suk had threatened Han Seohee by saying, "It's easy to put you at a disadvantage.

Not only do we test them for drugs regularly but if we do find drugs in their system, we send them to Japan to remove all traces of it."

No. 35854
>>35853>How about we don't trust the opinion of some creep who whores young girls out to "uncle" fans?Exactly. Honestly for all of the people blaming Somi for leaving JYP, it's just as likely that he considered her too old to front the new group. Here's my speculation; He likes his center/visual girls to be as pedobait-y as he can get away with. He probably decided Yuna was his new golden child and dumped Somi. And after all, if he debuted the new group with Somi in it but not center, he'd get critique. Easier just to cut her loose.
>>35851>They really seethe a lot over her white genes…Knetz being racist and shitty, must be a day that ends in "Y". I honestly don't think too much of her looks (I find her to look like a less pretty Lena Fuji or Leah Dizon), but you know most of them would likely give their right arm to look like her.

The woke complex with kpop agencies (which the Western media is abetting by representing BTS as LGBT kings and combating toxic masculinity, because k-physical sales and k-clickbait are so lucrative) is so transparently about transforming the image of the k-industry away from its former perception here as a corrupt slave shop. This is why you see Seungri/YG fans flinging the TERF shit everywhere to shut people up.
I'm honestly at the point where I think shit like the cultural appropriation scandals are largely staged to get attention especially from groups with woke fans like Mamamoo. Because most people sucked into the outrage still end up in the k-hole
No. 35896

I doubt any company would want the negative attention if they knew about racist issues or gave a shit about it.

Nasal king, Jinhwan from iKON. I remember watching that iKON show and wishing that Junhoe would be the main vocal because Jinhwan's voice is so grating.
Also Jimin of AOA, her voice is squeaky and irritating.
This actually just made me remember that Jinhwan and Jimin from AOA had a dating scandal at one point. Maybe now that their groups are dying, they can make a duo reminiscent of Alvin and the Chipmunks.

They're in huge demand and get paid top dollar for attending university festivals and such, which only artists with public popularity get invited to. Red Velvet aren't flopping no matter how much we all hated RBB.
>international kpop fans don't seem to care that much International fans support flops like CLC out of pity and never actually buy their albums. International fans also call the likes of Nuest and BTOB flops when Nuest members are probably more relevant as individuals than half of BTS in Korea.

Of course that's not everyone is doing it just those who are into heavily invested in social media.
Although I love people not giving a fuck about their natural skin color I'm honestly scared that this will become the new trend over there soon.

I saw a few OT4 Red Velvet videos and they honestly were very boring on variety, plus they had a more "mature" image because of Be Natural (which was a bigger flop than RBB) and Irene's age.
I think SM needed to pander to younger fans a bit if they wanted RV to gain any fanbase at all; I mean, see how much Mamamoo with their mature image sells vs. how much Twice sells (SNSD also only switched concepts and tried to appeal to older women once they'd pandered enough to kids and men with Gee/Oh/Genie). I'm guessing they added Yeri to lower the group's average age, help the other members open up on variety shows, and give the kids a "relatable" member to project themselves onto.

To make it extra fun, all of Winwin's lines in every nct song he had ever been featured in prior to wavy's latest comeback added up to one (1) minute of adlibs and autistic screeching yet he still somehow managed to be the most popular nct member in all of China by a landslide.

Hell, even APINK got death threats for dating and nobody did anything towards the males. Eunhyuk faced no hate for fucking IU and it practically ruined her career. Fans werent sending Big Bang death threats for dating women in Japan, yet those women had to shut down all their social media. Bom was destroyed for doing drugs while every single comment for the most part on the social media and news posts of all these men that are getting exposed for doing even WORSE drugs and worse activities are >IM SO SORRY OPPA WE LOVE YOU ALWAYS WE ALWAYS SUPPORT YOU HWAITING!!!!11

she is definitely unwell, for which I can’t blame her at all, but she’s especially unwell because she acts out in a borderline way on social media for attention.

>>36233taeyeon seems aggressive af sorry not sorry
i feel like there is something deep down that makes her abrasive to other people until she chooses to let them in, then once she does she becomes clingy af
some people with severe depression will push people away to the point where they end up alone because a normal person feels awkward and weird being turned away constantly or lashed out at, and it takes a certain kind of person to be able to handle that so her circle is probably immensely small, whereas the other girls have lots of friends both in and out of the industry

>>36232I’m assuming Tiffany low key sided with Jessica in private, or still talks to her somewhat, simply because they went to school together as children. They’ve pretty much known each other their entire lives. I don’t think they met teayeon until they were a bit older?
Also the fact that Tiffany left the company as soon as she could to manage herself, much like Jessica.

>>36237jessica was in diamond bar too? i didnt know that
i know krystal was actually "discovered" before jessica and because krystal was so young, they decided to approach their parents and ask for jessica instead with the promise that krystal could debut later(she was already a child model)
but tiffany auditioned iirc because she was a kpop fan already
