Anyway, Hitomi looks pretty off this time around. Feel like it’s the combination of shitty-toned blonde hair + weird facial features + even thinner body than before. I used to think she was kinda cute-looking on PD48 but styling like this really exposes how below average-looking she actually is.

With the majority of them being white they think it looks more legit and impressive. They delude themselves into thinking that the hallyu wave is significant in western countries but don't acknowledge those countries who actually contributed to the increasing popularity of Korean entertainment.

>>39988Honestly, when you see idols next to "average" people they look like normal thin to average ratio…but the reality is that the "average" looking people are most likely thin or fit.
It'd be so shocking if their faces got more hollowed or idols didn't have such narrow/short frames, but even despite that they still have ribs showing in fancams, etc.
I feel like companies used to hide it more around 2014 and before than they do now. So Jung seemed talkative and energetic back during the Pretty Pretty era despite sharing her calorie diary briefly and saying she hardly ate anything but a few cherry tomatoes.
I wonder if they have them on a Judy Garland diet, but I'm guessing the truth behind it is most likely extreme restriction and overexercising as usual.
They haven't rebounded like other idols in between comebacks do, I feel like either they're all enabling each other, feel in competition with one another, or their leash is very tight. Maybe all 3.

They don't do tryhard shit like Jennie actively (with the help of yg) trying to get a sexy, fashionista image or something. Jennie seems to be secretly obsessed with her public image and everything she does seems so calculated. That's why it looks like she has zero personality.

>>40067>Is Jennie even her real name? It's kinda suspect how she's born in Korea yet her real name is supposed to be Jennie Kim.Her family is rich and they have international exposure. They had probably planned to move somewhere abroad prior Jennie's birth, thus naming their daughter with a name that sounds both English and Korean. Kinda like how Yujin becomes Eugene, many Koreans abroad have this kind of 'flexible' names.
>>40070>I don't really understand rose tho, her name is said to be roseanne but also chae-young.Rosé was born in NZ. Unlike Jennie's case, her parents decided to make her English and Korean names different from each other. This is actually more common than having a 'flexible' name that can suit both English and Korean. Other examples would be Wendy Son (Son Seung Hwan), Stephanie Hwang (Hwang Mi Young), etc.

A legit curious case would be Niel of Teen Top. His birth name is Daniel Ahn despite being a native Korean and never been born/raised abroad kek. Meanwhile, Kang Daniel's (of Wanna One) name is only a stage name. His birth name is Korean.

I doubt Polaris was planning on them having this long of a career to begin with, and they don’t bring in big $$. they’re talented, but it feels like their extended career is all a big favor from their agency.
And soo young clearly can’t survive functioning with idol beauty standards. If she looks more mature and somber, she also doesn’t have to starve to appear like a 12 year old girl.

No. 40095
>>40078Not-so-closet shawol, and it seemed like Shinee was choosing to stay busy on purpose to cope.
Their contracts were up after jonghyun died, and they had the choice not to resign at all. Instead they negotiated a deal that has incredibly generous profit margins to the band (considering SM), and every one of them worked nonstop until they enlisted.
It honestly reminded me of my dad going right back to work a few days after my mother died, desperately seeking some sort of normalcy or continuity. the grief caught up later, but in the moment, there was this urge to prove to everyone that he was surviving.
I also think that if shinee didn’t get back together within their 10th anniversary yr, they never would’ve done it at all. They’d been idols for their entire youths and young adulthood’s, and this was as good of an opportunity for a clean break as they’ll ever get.
So as much as—as a sperging fan—I wish they all just quit it and went to therapy and moved the fuck out of Korea, I understand why it felt imperative to keep going nonstop and just push past their feelings.

Completely unrelated to that, but out of a lot of idols one who annoys the shit out of me is BM from KARD.
He's almost 27 and his Instagram is so cringy, from the way he speaks to the way he acts.
I don't pay too much attention to see if there are many still around, but I miss mixed-gender groups.
KARD is so boring and the group falls flat in almost every area of entertainment.
They should drop JiWoo (Who sounds almost exactly like a tone-deaf Soomin? It's odd.) and BM (Who has no charisma, he's overshadowed by J.Seph despite J.Seph looking like a thumb)

When I got into kpop I was still a teen so I listened to their cringey hip-hop concepts here and there but even then I didn't find them special so I just ended up watching their shows and stuff instead cause I that time I thought it was funny.

But on the contrary, if BTS shows respect for another artist or collaborates with them, then their fans will say how BTS is so much better and how BTS did that artist a “favor” by collaborating. In the case of Western artists, they emphasize how BTS needs to “stay away” from the partying/drugs/lifestyle that the Western artist has because BTS is apparently incapable of making those decisions themselves and aren’t grown adult men.

sorry i just also think the need for literally every song to be choreographed is just so stupid, but then again what other excuse are they gonna use for sounding like shit when they can't use "being out of breath" as one? i would rather watch ariana grande run around in her stupid little skirts and heels before i would want to watch most kpop concerts.

I feel like she was given the Park Bom treatment were she was forced to change to sound to be more "unique," wich has actually just made her unbearable to listen to.

Amber is no longer SM and doesn't even live in SK anymore. why tf she doesn't come out already… i dont get it
No. 40573
>>40568Wendy's voice is somewhere between "okay" and "not bad" IMO and if she was able to sing between her limited range (on the lower side, but when she can't go lower she does that weird Britney Spears gurgle/growl (Not sure how else to describe it) and is clearly straining on the high notes-which is bad for her because she's clearly straining to a Taylor Swift song of all things.
She lived in Canada, she's always gotten mocked for having "foreign genes that make her fat" like that has anything to do with actual dieting/eating healthy.
I find most people don't like Wendy at all, even cropping her out of pictures.
The only thing people like about her is her weight loss, no wonder she's fading away. Kind of sad.
No. 40577
>>40565Agreed. WME (company of OMG/B1A4/ONF, for people who only keep up with the bigger companies) is aware of it, too, considering how she’s gotten hosting gigs and even a lead voice acting job. But I wonder how she’d fare coming from a smaller company—Chungha had the hype of Produce 101 to back her solo career and IU is an anomaly. And WME has a shit record with their one female solo act, I (her actual stage name).
>>40567As much as I like some of Red Velvet’s output, Seulgi really shines in spite of her group.
I can’t really think of any other outstanding members, but I can think of some groups that can only exist as a plurality.
Nothing against Gfriend, but none of the members speak to me as idols who would succeed solo. A lot of their strength as performers is how they dance as a unit. A lot of bordering-on-nugu groups are like this, too, where there’s a bunch of middling to above average members all having to cover for each other’s weaknesses. It’s the benefit of Kpop, imo.

Some say he was ana, but to me he just looked like many other lanky teen boys. He was just 14 when he debuted, that was over a decade ago, so of course his face has matured a lot. His nose does seem slightly different, but maybe he simply hadn't grown into his features yet and it just fits his bigger adult face better now.
I'm more interested to know whether he's gay or not. Jut recently I saw an old interview there a male fan hugged him and he said "But I like women"…
>>40579What do you expect from retarded (adult)children?
Insult bts - get fired, bts is rude - "Sassy kings!" To them saying that their Oppars are ugly is far worse than them making "jokes" about the dead.
No normie korean would recognize any of the bts members individually, sm groups are way more popular with the general public, but of course that doesn't matter to them, because all that counts is that their oppars have more twitter followers lol

No. 40629
>>40577>none of the members speak to me as idols who would succeed soloYou have a point but tbh it's hard to tell which idol will succeed as soloists and which won't. Sunmi never stood out in Wonder Girls but is arguably the most successful out of all of them today. Chungha was overshadowed by Somi in IOI, while Somi was the star of her group but is being outdone by her backup dancers today. Taeyeon is an average performer but her songs did extremely well.
It all depends on whether the idol gets a public-friendly song and concept that plays to their strengths, so they feel comfortable pulling it off.
No. 40635
>>40628Bts too always named american actresses as their ideal types - but nevertheless ratmies claim that they hate all white people.
Musicians in Japan only use white models in their videos to avoid their local fans getting jealous (She's just a foreigner visiting? There's no way she could ever marry him!), so maybe kpop idols do that to, name somebody who everybody knows will never get with them. It's not like they can just say they like some other female idol.

You'll find white women even in Korean mvs but it's usually for sexual scenes or something.
But I feel like bts has always been careful with the ideal type thing. They don't wanna upset fans, especially now that they've blown up so they just name random American celebrities and they're not the only boy group doing this.
Even girl groups do this if they wanna avoid the question. The responses really depend on the idol and their company.

Nowadays seems like idols don't aknowledge each others' existences on camera.
As for bangtan for example I remember Jungkook always answering his ideal type was IU. I remember them picking Red Velvet as the gg they wanted to be closer with in several occasions too.

Super Junior also performed there and looks like their fans really are only the highest upper class.

idk does she really have the right to come and say these things when it is obvious that the netizens have won because she altered her face so much (even her debut face was an altered version) and she paints the job of an idol as some high-skill job requiring lots of specialization when all it really needs is a hunger for fame and being a whore for attention and being able to listen to assholes trying to put down your individual charms and telling you to lose weight
i mean backup singers and dancers are more skilled than them - idols really are nothing but empty commercials for things the higher ups want to sell but idols themselves can't see it and think of themselves as ever-so-important artistes

Needless to say, one of their other huge prizes is also LG Styler S5MB that costs more than 2 million won about USD1700 and above.
>As for fans of TOP Media’s Lee JinHyuk, they are giving away 2157 free gifts!
>It includes the choice between an Apple Mac Book pro or LG Gram, 24K pure gold bar, iPhone XS 256GB, iPad 6th generation 128GB, and many more. Some other gifts also include Baskin Robbins and Starbucks coupons.
>Fans of OUI’s Kim YoHan are also not losing out as they also have many attractive prizes for those who vote for him!
>You can also actually win a 3 days 2 night trip to Singapore with accommodation at the luxury Marina Bay Sands hotel. In addition, you also get free ticket to Universal Studios Singapore. Needless to say, they also have prizes like MacBook Air, iPhone and iPad.
>Many netizens were amazed and stunned by the support these trainees are receiving. They were also very surprised to see how much money the fans have in order to try and ‘lure’ people to vote for the trainees.

So MNET basically rigged the final lineup of PD X 101 so that a guy who was #3 going in to the finale didn’t make it in to the final group (which was from #1 to #10). They didn’t let him (Jinhyuk, or Wei from Up10tion) debut simply because there was another guy from the same group who was obviously going to be the center (but they rigged that too and gave him 2nd place, lmfao). Their rigging was very, very obvious. There’s a few posts on pann-choa of how they added votes from other guys to create the number of votes for the ones who were rigged. It’s so blatant—even if you didn’t watch the show, you’ll laugh when you see how obvious the numbers are.
https://pann-choa.blogspot.com/2019/07/enter-talk-you-must-read-this-its-true.html?m=1It sucks for the other kids but I feel bad for Jinhyuk because Up10tion has far too many members (a number of them not attractive at all) and as seen with I.O.I, people are not going to stan a group with like two members out of 10 that were from the survival program. Picture attached is of Up10tion. If I was an exec I would not let a group exceed 7 members, and looks would definitely matter—I mean, if you want to turn up a profit.

>>41044I always forget that idols like Krystal, Sulli, and Suzy were like 14-15 when they debuted (video related) because they styled idols so much older back then. Not to say that it isn't disturbing in hindsight because one could definitely argue the more mature styling of the late 00s allowed for even more underage sexualization.
with modern idols (wonyoung, yuna, these girls), I find it creepy how much more transparent the companies have become with sexualization of these minors, it's nothing new but in a post IOI world where it's okay for 14-17 year olds to wear bondage gear as a concept, I'm not even surprised.
Oh and male idols are also subject to this underage sexualization, looking at the new X1 lineup and half of them are fuckin fetuses…
it's sad that an idol is considered "old" when they hit their mid twenties as if their appeal somehow dries up the moment they start looking like actual adults. Or they're chided if they look young at an older age and want to escape the sexualized concepts they've been forced into

Does anyone have any milk on Jaejoong? He’s pretty lowkey nowadays, seems like he spends a lot of time in Japan. JYJ is likely done for.

So ratmies feel violated because their oppars were shoved to the k pop category instead of competing with other pop stars equally. They were now bombarding VMAs for being racist.
To be honest, lumping kpop artists who strictly sings korean to a western music award is honestly idiotic. Latin singers didn't say bullshit when they were made separate categories. Japanese artists like Sekai no Owari tries to make an english version of their stuffs ever since they made it clear they wanted to be known in the west. Ratmies were shoving it down everyone's throat that BTS is a global singing group but the fuckers didn't even bother singing in pure english, which is a universally known language. If they don't want to be labeled as "kpop" and just "pop" then be a fucking english singing group then.
I know this may sound like a reverse LANA situation were I might sound like I was saying "pop" is reserved for white people but categories exist to put people in place with a set standard. Do they want BTS to be the only kpop group competing western artists? That is stupid and bullshitty unless they make a move to suit the category. Until then they need to stay in kpop since they are kpop.

>>41156it makes me so sad. hyuna used to be drop dead gorgeous (i think the last time she looked great was in the babe era. her look in lip & hip was just atrocious) but now she looks like a trashy crackhead. i loved her back of the shoulder tattoo about her mom, but all her tattoos after that are just horrible looking. i am really disappointed that she lied about her lip fillers. they are so obvious and her naturally full lips were beautiful to begin with.
i know that everyone here loves to point out that rose, lisa, and jimin are skellies and look proana, but every single time that hyuna posts on insta, they look like ana body checks. she is so hollow looking now and when she naturally has a full face and quite a lot of muscle. she lost a lot of weight before debuting and even gained a lot of weight during the hate era. i remember her getting scary thin during her ice cream era to the point her cheeks had these weird deep vertical lines below her cheek bones cause there was no fat and only skin. you can tell shes naturally supposed to have quite a fit and full body, but she looks so fragile and alarming these days.

I can tolerate hwasa for being like that cause she doesn't have that arrogant attitude. Seems like she doesn't think too much and just does what she likes (although it gets cringey too)
At least she's talented, she's not even the rapper in mamamoo but in their rap songs (which they did just for fun) she managed to be a better rapper than both Jennie and Lisa could ever be.

Netizens are always whining about Jiyoung 'looking Japanese' and Jessica 'looking Chinese' it's honestly surreal how xenophobic Korea is. I mean Jiyoung always looked distinct in the first place and Jessica and Krystal's surname is from medieval Chinese who came to western Korea (zheng) so no shit she looks somewhat Chinese.

Has anyone else ever thought of how to make the perfect kpop group objectively speaking? Not in a “talent” way, but rather in terms of GP appeal and profitability.
I guess we can discuss this and add our opinions but my strategy would be:
> Maximum of 7 members, preferably 5, bc people don’t care for ginormous groups outside of Big 3 groups imo
> HAS to be good-looking and reasonably well-proportioned/tall, no exceptions for the sake of talent
> Just has to be able to sing alright, I’m not a fan of screeching high notes anyways tbh
> At worst, one/two members can do the majority of the singing and the others can be autotuned and have like one line.
> Ability to compose doesn’t matter since the label would be choosing relatively safe concepts and songs
> Safe wardrobe, no weird hairstyles
> Members would look sort of like 5Surprise with actor-like visuals that would appeal to the GP. In a perfect world, I’d try to scout models for Cha Eun Woo type visuals.
> Would appeal to late teens, 20s and 30s mainly - the older appeal would potentially help in the case of “dating scandals” as opposed to groups with younger fanbases
> Older fans would also have more money to spend
To any of you who have thought of your “ideal group” feel free to reply with the framework. I know mine is boring but if we’re targeting K-fans then it’s gonna be boring, lmao.

A four/five member group with distinct voices who can sing well, perhaps produce or write themselves.
Something I feel like a lot of companies don't take into consideration is chemistry. I'd make sure that they don't hate each other, that they get along fairly well and that their personalities aren't too contrasting, and no excessive favoritism- we don't want end up having a sulli or Jennie or something.
In terms of visuals I'd say average-attractive and the concept should be something rather mature yet still catchy.
Overall, I'd want everyone to be on the same level somehow so not judg one of them stands out while the rest is being ignored(Like Cha eunwoo's group).

problematic and ignorant

The only group who was as "perfect" as what you wrote was tvxq, all of them were tall, had nice voices, could dance and were considered attractive by korean standards.

>>41559>We all know that even if you make the slightest mention of a famous kpop group you'll gain more fans and attention.Here's my question. Do you actually think Ariana needs to? Do you honestly think BP is more popular than she is? Because I don't. If anything, it's always kpop groups always using popular western artists to try to break into the western market, using the laziest methods possible (ie the mediaplay of claiming that some pop star is dying to collaborate with them and then repeating it ad nauseum until their gullible fans believe it).
To be honest, I've always just assumed that companies like YG pay hand over fist for these mentions from popular Western artists like Ariana. The same goes for all of bts's shitty collabs and shoutouts.
But Blinks and ARMYS are
the most
toxic fanbases in a sea of
toxic fanbases so they delusionally scream and brag about this shit and pretend it's their fail!oppas and unnies that are the true stars.

It would certainly help her image though now that people think she and her fans are racist after the whole kris thing.

Am I the only one who doesn't find her particularly attractive? I think botoxed face Lia is better looking tbh.
>>41745>>41780Wtf happened to JYP's vocals? Miss A had talented singers all around. I don't recall the specific member's voices but Miss A also had lower tones which were refreshing compared to the super high tones that are basically encouraged in kpop. And Wonder Girls had 2-3 members who were talented singers as well. I guess JYP has realized with Twice that you don't actually need decent singers in a group.

you already have to be attractive to even have a chance at becoming an idol, i don't understand why idols go so far with plastic surgery to the point they become botched when they have to be at least somewhat attractive to begin with.

She has the double whammy of being the least useful and the last attractive member in her group (even though she’s above average compared to non-idol Koreans). Still being the last member of a popular group is better than being a popular member in an unknown group.

He's androgynous on top of that. A great canvas for his fans to project right onto. They then ignore the parts they don't like and it feeds into it even more. Suddenly they're on twitter pretending to be a 33 year old lady who's husband wants to fuck Jimin.

I know that this is supposed to be polite, but it just looks so weird, as if he's grossed out by her.
Also yikes at Jhope's botched face in the back…

>>42109Yeah they get praised for being polite and respectful but then end up being part of seungri's squad or some shit.
Things like that means nothing to me when in private most of them are misogynistic and
abusive in some way.

The people who are saying it's weird to post this are right tbh. You'd think that posing like that and uploading pictures should be the last thing on your mind when your father gets beaten to death… But maybe he was told to do so by his agency.
No. 42138
>>42136It's not funny, it's fucking absurd. Your father gets killed and you post pics of you next to his coffin. Normal people have different thoughts than "Okay, now let's take a pic, oh wait, another one" at their family's funeral. I think the way he puts out his leg is the weirdest, one can't help but think that it's completely unnatural.
Btw, I'm glad most of you agreed with me, I wasn't sure whether posting this is okay.
I kind of hope that this is his agency's doings and not his own idea.

>>42145if i was rat i'd be so fucking pissed with them lol. why do they always try and make him look like a moon with that highlighter? it doesn't even look like fucking skin, who do they think they're fooling when they're doing that level of close up? honestly he'd look 100% better if they left him matte and just stuck some lip balm on instead of the gloss
stop making idol boys fucking greasy! if you want me to want to sit on their face, then don't make it look like i'll fucking slide off! pic related because this shit is a theme with bts

>>42200>A 14 year old girl twerkingThat girl from izone or whatever was 13/14 when she danced to side to side….
It makes me physically sick when I think about all those men drooling over this girl but I yet have to see someone pointing that out how inappropriate that is
Why did they make such big fuss over that commercial but don't say anything about her?
I don't like yeri just because I find her personality on shows and stuff totally off but that's a normal dress? What's supposed to be provocative here? Must be cause her bones aren't sticking out of the dress.
People like jennie wear waaay more revealing stuff at the airport but that's ok cause they're considered pretty.
This hypocrisy is pissing me off.

>>42232On this show hyuna was a judge and a former trainee showed up whom she was friends with back then. The woman already seemed way more talented (and prettier) but is a nobody and has to let chipmunk-voiced hyuna judge her talents.
Life is unfair.

>>42222thread pic nomination this is too funny to pass up
>>42220Yeri's facial features are more in line with Korean beauty ideals I think. Even the salty Nate commenters shit on her body more than her face. If Yeri had a slimmer waist she'd probably be considered above Joy to Koreans.
>>42208 Seulgi is just average to them, she gets attention for her toned figure and personality more than her face (though personally I think she's the most attractive even above Irene).
>>42219Nah I think she gets away with it because she's not got much meat on her bones to show off anyway. If she had Jihyo's tits or Nancy's ass she'd be slut-shamed to high heavens.
