>>287919>Kyulkyung is hands-down the prettiest girl idol in Kpop>I think it’s a little odd that there are relatively few Chinese Kpop idols (there are at most two or three in a group if any at all) and they’re generally treated even worse than Korean onesA lot of people assume Chinese idols are using Kpop as a stepping stone until they gain notoriety in their homeland, which… does happen, but it's not like plenty of Korean idols see Kpop to segue into more lucrative careers like acting. There's also the whole China's hallyu ban, which made companies even more wary of investing time and money into a Chinese recruit who'll leave them anyway for greener pastures they can't even profit off of.
Kyulkyung is so unreal to look at. She's like an android or something. A lot of Chinese idols have the same near-uncanny valley features, like SNH48's Xu Jiaqi/Kiki or contestants on the Chinese Produce 101 shows.

The discrimination regarding looks in South Korean society is so extreme and prevalent that I definitely feel bad for people growing up there (especially girls and women). Any Korean person who would be considered average-looking decades ago would be insulted as outright ugly nowadays if they don't have a V-shaped face, ghost white skin, double eyelids, small nose, small eyes, and yadda yadda yadda.

No girls in kpop are angels. It's extremely competitive and most countries have a fucked up entertainment industry where you have to do awful things to get to the top.

During the PD48 finale, Kaeun missed her last opportunity at being an idol, but she looked stone-faced. It's probably a combo of botched surgery and the result of years in the industry tbh, but how did she not completely break down? I genuinely feel bad for her.

middle of the entire project. Yves and a couple other members came from a pipeline of idol/dance training schools, too, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were picked up just months before their solo.

Team chemistry is probably the last thing companies look for when they're assembling groups since idols will fall in line and build it up over training/promotions, anyway.

you mentioned sistar being colleagues and i think i remember people talking about that, thinking it was so crazy that they couldn't be absolutely best friends and work together well. if i'm correct i think a lot of people thought hyorin wasn't friendly enough with bora? but they had a whole sub unit together that worked well.

I'm fine with my favorite groups' dynamic being professional (getting along, providing 'friendly' fan service, etc.) without the pretenses of it being born out of some unbreakable bond of friendship.

>>288636The idol life sounds like a nightmare for anyone—especially a teen girl who’s not from one of the big three companies. I wouldn’t be so hard on Heejin.
Anyway, I feel like LOONA’s debut outfits would look better if each of them were stylized more individually. Like, big groups like TWICE, WJSN, and even Seventeen in their early days when they were on a budget managed to perform in outfits that all kept the same colors but differed in style. Each member of LOONA literally has the exact same outfit to promote in. If their company can afford to spend so much on music videos and other stuff, surely they could spend a bit more on more varied clothing. ~~K-pop stylists get paid shit anyway.~~

>>288868I love the return to a uniform, because I'm tired of seeing the mix and match, kaleidoscope outfits that dominate right now (BP, G-idle, etc.); but they really did need different finishings or cuts for each girl. Hell, Twice got unique white shirts and denim for Heartshaker.
Cute concept debuts feature a lot of uniformity in clothes and hair, though, which seems counter-intuitive to making the girls distinct and appealing to different tastes.

Most korean guys tattoo their eyebrows on though because naturally they barely have any 😂😂😂 my ex has really thick eyebrows and he got sooooo many compliments and guys telling him they were jealous. it’s a really common thing, and not considered gay at all. Whenever I went to a salon, there were always korean guys in there getting perms and their eyebrows done. B.B. cream or tinted SPF is accepted for guys who care about looking good. There are guys though who know it’s seen as gay from an outside perspective and that will influence how they feel about it, and also nerdy types who resent any guy who tries to appeal to women. Many make up lines have a section for men, of course it’s the same shit just in black and blue packaging 🙄

http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.com/2018/09/make-up-artist-park-tae-yoon-receives.htmlMake up artist Park Tae Yoon wrote about Kim Do Yeon's make up saying, "This kid is so pretty. She has no traces of fillers, every inch of her facial angles prove that she's natural-grade, along with her bumpy nose… Her beauty shines more with the angled and lifted brows."
Knetz getting
triggered because a makeup artist complimented Doyeon's beauty. The insecurity is showing:
> 6. [+39, -3] Yes, there's nothing wrong with calling a celebrity pretty or anything ㅋㅋㅋ but he shouldn't be calling her natural like he's judging the grade of sashimi… He could've just called her a natural beauty but instead he described in explicit detail how she had no fillers in her face, how her nose is bumpy… that's rude. The people who don't get why what he said was problematic are the same people who go around judging women in public without realizing that they're being rude. I bet all the Nate losers who've never gone on a date think this is an actual compliment that women want to hear ㅋㅋ No. 289544
>>289541i've always thought doyeon was super pretty…even when knetz said she had "too big of a nose" which i thought was ridiculous. too bad her company wasted her on weki meki instead of modeling or advertising or smth.
but yeah, knetz are definitely rustled bc doyeon can probably actually brag about being natural or at least majorly natural. the arched brows do look good on her too. i think that's my gripe with korean makeup, everyone follows the same exact formula of makeup rather than doing makeup that fits you. everyone has to have straight brows, white skin, and gradient lips and it doesn't look good on everyone.

I genuinely feel bad for idols who get into the industry at that young. At that age they don't really understand any of the negatives and consequences of working in the industry, no different than a child star in Hollywood.
When people are 17+, they know enough about life and reality to be able to make like long choices and should be held accountable so I don't feel bad for idols who get in to the industry that late, but any younger than that, it all falls on the parents. And truly they're shitty parents.

>>288927Everything about BlackPink is try-hard which is why I find them so annoying. They are so deeply untalented even after years of being trainees and the way they are hyped as different and better than other groups because what? Their company plies them with brand in an effort to give them a personality and concept; they are "prettier" than 2NE1 because they've all been under the knife multiple times pre-debut as opposed to post ala Minzi and CL.
The whole "human gucci" concept in so stupid (pic related; they cut up a gucci blouse and paired it with fucking tennis skirt. looks cheap af). They are are so dull that their company and braindead fans have made a brand a substitute for any semblance of personality or uniqueness.
Disclaimer: I'm not really a Kpop fan. I like a couple songs here and there, but something about BlackPink just gets under my skin more than other groups.

But hey, at least he was given a persona, what is Jungkook supposed to be acting like besides looking stunned all the time?
No. 289972
>>289727I kinda feel the same about his voice. I think he works hard to live up to everyone's expectations because they usually put him on the center and he is a good singer, but his voice doesn't really stand off. Jimin and V aren't as good as him, but after hearing them a few times you'll recognize them in their songs. Maybe it's because of singing with the lack of emotion thing
>>289835I agree. As for live vocals, Jungkook is fine and the others have a way to go. Suga, RM and Jhope are okay rappers for kpop but not as amazing as armies make them out to be. Dance-wise, Jin and RM just keeps up with the choreo, Suga and V are a bit better dancers than them, Jungkook is good at dancing but it's nothing special, Jimin is their second best dancer (iirc he studied contemporary dance) but he gets a big part in vocals too. I remember they were asked if they'd rather forget lyrics or mess up the choreography and only Jhope chose forgetting lyrics. I love performers who take dance very seriously so I like that about him
>>289946I don't know if he actually is like that since he got into the kpop industry at a very young age but I feel like they push the maknae baby boy image on him, which I don't understand at all, how does being the youngest person in a group make up someone's entire personality like what's so interesting about it
No. 289994
>>289988 BTS fans can't take criticism and it's such a stupid mindset to have, it's not like their boys are going to have a mental breakdown when someone on the internet says their vocals are weak or Idol and DNA are bad songs. You'll get criticized, that's literally how you get better at things.
Can you elaborate on and give an example to V being the most stable one? I actually thought him and Jimin are the least stable ones while singing live. I agree that they have a weak vocal line as well, especially for a group with their popularity. Tbh all the vocalists in BTS can sound decent at times in the right style and range, and they could get better with the proper training but I guess because of the reasons you said they might not care about improving anymore. I mean thousands of fans are ready to tell them that they are already perfect in their smallest slip up
No. 289996
>>289796Tbh the only Blackpink song I like is Stay and I think Jisoo has a very nice voice, she also seems the most stable while performing live, but that's it.
>>289959I watch it too sometimes, and you're right. Like 90% of the concerns are parental or marital abuse, and they're very backwards in the mental health department (but we been know). Few times they do actually condemn the abusive husband/parent's behavior, like in one episode with Mamamoo as guests, but most times they just laugh at the issue.
No. 289997
>>289994He has the strongest sense of breath support, remains relaxed within his comfort range, can transition to falsetto fairly easily, seems to know his limits (doesn’t sing with too much throat tension etc.), and has semi-decent support. Among other things.
Jungkook is the second strongest vocalist in BTS but has the same issue as Rosé — while they aren’t terrible they tend to favor style over technique. His voice on the whole isn’t as developed as it could be which is kind of a shame for him but he’s doing well rn given his success so I doubt he minds lol + is probably none the wiser anyway. I hope neither of them ruin their voices over this. BTS and BP get bashed a lot in these threads but I like these two. More for their personality and aesthetics than their voices though.

>>289997there's nothing wrong with reading them but i hope nobody in these threads genuinely takes sites like kpopvocalanalysis as absolute fact or authority. plenty of it is the same 'stable!!!' bullshit that fans say but made to sound objective because "it's what my vocal trainer says, i've had real vocal lessons!". they fall into the same weird double standards like saying 'weak' vocalists are ruining their voices but use 'strong' vocalists like whitney houston or pavarotti as their examples of people who ruined their voices
calling someone's singing 'stable' in kpop means anything from singing flawlessly to managing to go 8 seconds without sounding out of breath. it's always used talking about useless members of a group to make them sound better than the main singers in the group, it really means nothing

>too bad her group never took offActually by 2015, their Excuse Me Dance Practice actually got viral on FB (that's how I actually came to know them), it had more than 8M views on their video (vid related), and also DaHye's fancam for the same dance also became viral because she's wearing pretty tiny shorts lmao After that, a lot of their videos broke the 1M mark, they were really on their way to became a big group, but surprise surprise, their agency favored their male group over them and they were being always ignored to favour the male group, until everyone forgot about them and two members left. Which is a shame, their songs were pretty catchy and Uji sings really really well. And the male group didn't even take off as their agency wanted, so they really were betting on the wrong horse + that dash of misogyny as always.
Sorry for rant, I am very salty because they were one of my favorite GG at a point.

But they also get so drunk in the twinks that they just can't recognize a handsome man, look at the comments regarding Kahi's husband:

>5. [+24, -5] I think he looks masculine and handsome. But then again, what would you women know when all you do is stay home all day and watch princes in shining armor on your TV screens..Even actors use red lip tint and white bb cream, it just doesn't look good but that's what they're forced to think it's attractive I guess.

I'll agree that they've kinda reached their peak as well, they will release new songs, armys will hype it up on Twitter and stream it for the first 24 hours, it won't get that much attention out of their already dedicated fandom, the hype will fade away and it will repeat. Still, with their current popularity, if they want to market to the English-speaking audience learning English would help, in videos, English interviews, programs and stuff. It would help with their interactions with fans if they could communicate with them easily, on concerts that aren't in Korea (or Japan, I guess they speak some Japanese too), on Vlive etc.

It’s really sick and I don’t understand it. Their streets are covered in trash, vomit, cigarettes and spit, the sewers smell like the insides of a million assholes, bathrooms lack adequate plumbing, soap, and toilet paper yet they have the nerve to be so insanely shallow.
The biggest culture shock I ever got was traveling from Korea to Japan, where suddenly the air was fresh and people acted civilized in public and to top it off they looked normal… unique even, with their own faces and styles.

>>291132>dua lipa has been in a lot of hit songs, she doesn't need blackpink's clout to sell albums. eh, I mean really Dua Lipa stands to gain more from this than BP - hit songs in the west get a lot of listeners and popularity, but how many people who like New Rules would pay to see her in concert? How many people who like it would even notice a collab with BP? Whereas crazy asian fanbases will pay attention to her based on the BP collab and maybe she can tour in asia as a result.
No doubt it's annoying when kpop fans act like there's something wrong with that, it's kinda the whole point of a collab. But a lot of other fans brag about it, like western recognition is the be all and end all, and think that being well known in the west is better than actually making money in the east. You're totally right about kpop sales being because of fans bulkbuying etc, but someone obsessed enough to buy hundreds of albums will certainly buy concert tickets. A casual listener who likes a hit song won't.

>>291132I wouldn't blame fans for thinking all these famous bts stans are clout chasers tho, we all know they are, all these celebrities know how dedicated fans can be so they want to get a taste of it too. Also, I think they might also want their brownie points for being open minded, like "oh my god, look at these chinks with their chinky music, but I like them too because I'm modern, not racist but also slightly quirky!!!111".
Although, I don't agree with this mentality fans have of wanting to protect some rich guy they don't know, specially when protecting just means bullying someone saying the nastiest shit about them until they leave their own platform.
Also, loona stans (loonatics? orbits?) are the new army but even more annoying because for some reason more than half of their international fanbase is made of young adult members of minority groups (poc, lgbt, jobless and poor people with mental illness) and those people usually have a huge following for being "original", "fashion forward" and "woke" so they think their taste is superior and their dear loona girlies are basically the saviors of kpop when they're basically an exo girl group.

>>291144i understand why fans get upset when someone obviously uses their faves for clout but not every single person who talks about them is a clout chaser. drake put some in my feelings challenge videos at the end of the mv for that song, j-hope's challenge video was there too and armys called him a clout chaser. he's drake for god's sake, he doesn't need bts' clout for views.

>Yuta almost seems like he fucking hates everyone who isn't Winwin, Can’t argue with this one. Yuta seems detached from everyone except Winwin.
>Winwin never knows what the fuck is going on, but gets annoyed by Tae-il often, They seem truly close as well but Winwin in general seems to hate the way some members are all over him touching him and Yuta and Taeil are the biggest offenders. He seemed so much more relaxed and comfortable during the China live than I normally see him. I suspect having a poor grasp on the language must make you disoriented so I can see why he’d cling to members sometimes and want to be left alone other times. It must be very stressful.
>Jeno seems to really buy into that age hierarchy thing and occasionally picks on the younger dreamies, He’s arguably also the nicest dreamie, though, which I think is part of the reason why Doyoung adores him so much. While the others can act bratty (which of course they will, they’re kids) Jeno seems far more mellow. Maybe you’re right about the age hierarchy thing idk but I doubt it would really put a wedge between him and the younger members. He coos a lot over them too lol.

The ship could've mostly died out by now but both of them keep in good faith with Yunjae fansites like YunJaeLoveBar in China because those fansites are the biggest supporters. They both keep gifts from YJ fansites out on display in pictures and Jaejoong especially won't go more than about a month without mentioning him or showing off his TVXQ albums. It's known now that they are in contact with each other again but they'll discretely milk Yunjae for as long as possible because it keeps them more relevant to fans of the other person.
TVXQ still sell out massive tours and Jaejoong's Japan debut is nearly matching them in single sales so they don't need Yunjae to have fans but pretty much the only fans that still want a reunion are fans of the two of them, and they're the richest fans. I don't think any of the modern group's shippers will hold a candle to just how obsessed and insane Yunjae shippers were in their high point

>>291234>that was mostly over pay (each member only getting 1% of album revenue AFTER they hit a certain number of sales) Not technically wrong but album sales aren't where the money is, that's in tours overseas. Nobody sane expects to make big money off it, and SM were actually pretty fair to give them a % of revenue rather than profit (ie as long as they sell over 50k TVXQ make money even if the company is at a loss). The important thing is that TVXQ got 70% of net profit overseas and that is the real $$$.
Sorry to sperg but if there's one thing I am very critical about in kpop, it's people who don't understand their contract or the split acting like JYJ were poor victims. They were far from underpaid and were only going to get richer, the profit distribution was never once deemed unfair. Their contract is online and english translated, a good source is truetvxq.blogspot.com.

nct's profiles seem a little weird to me, one of the main minor things that annoys me in kpop is the obsession with profiles when the details in it are so often false. jaehyun's puts him at 180cm and 63kg, but yuta's at 176cm and 60kg and everyone's seen how thin he is. it must be hard to adjust everyones details to the point where they seem tall enough and also light but healthy enough without having one member lie so much that it's obvious when they stand next to someone else

>>288008 to be honest, nct is a failed rip off of super junior, which seems like a rip off of the akb48 concept that sm wishes it could pull off. the ceo at sm doesn't seem to understand that akb48 works because they take a bunch of inexperienced girls and essentially give them on the job training, whereas in the korean market a lot more polishing is required. eventually people are going to get tired of their biases leaving and give up on nct.
besides that, yeri from red velvet has got to be one of the most spoiled idols. i used to like her because she was funny and had a "cold" personality but even that can get grating at times. coupled with her laziness, there just seems to be no hope for her. i know she was mourning jonghyun's death, but it's been almost a year.

>>292028>>292007blackpink's last comeback was truly disappointing. The title track was a mix of all of their other songs and it was just corny flexing (typical YG style). The mv was empty af too… The choreography was weak and boring as per usual so overall, this attempt at i'm the best blackpin ver didn't have any redeeming qualities for me.
But of course it did mega well and got 300m view… When I see these results I always wonder if their fans actually like those songs or they just stream them because they want to see their faves succeed. I don't have a problem with people liking something that I think is garbage and if they stream a song when they don't like it to "support their babies Uwu" that's their business, but I feel like a lot of fans just force themselves to like everything their faves do and oversee all of their negative traits. Which is okay when you're a kid but when I see grown people behaving like that over some rich dude they don't know… That's why I never get involved with any fandom, because people take any criticism towards their bias (hate that word) as a personal offense.

i've asked this in a few places before though and never got any answer, maybe somebody here knows; have any of the blackpink girls ever talked about writing/producing songs? even with yg's history of favouring his male idols i just don't buy that the only reason ikon and winner have a hand in making their songs and blackpink don't is that yg doesn't want a girl group to write. they don't even have to be good, writing 3 lines of a chorus can get you a joint credit and cred for being an artist idol. personally i think the members just want the idol side and don't care but fans insist they're just being held back

>>292092>>292127shipping their (outwardly) straight bias with their (outwardly) straight friend is a way for insecure teens to think of their crush in a sexual way without it being too real the way it would be if they actually thought of themselves doing the things they read about. or, worse, with a hot idol girl the male idol is far more likely to actually be dating. it's as fake and sexless as writing stories about 2 guys rawing each other can be because, obviously, a lot of these girls are very young and likely have no experience with actual sexual situations. even though in theory they'd rather be the one making out with jungkook, imagining a situation where they're just watching from the shadows instead is less intimidating
the short tumblr scenario blogs that post things like "hyung line as your boyfriend when you make them a surprise meal!" seem pretty popular because even "vocal line's reactions when you send them a sexy pic while they rehearse!" is more distant and not as personal as the 'idol x reader' fics which are very rare compared to any other kind of fics
No. 292151
>>292147Kinda OT, but as a former kind of fujo, and being 100% straight, I'd say that's more on what gets you aroused more. Some girls get aroused by projecting themselves onto another woman (like watching a porn or reading erotica), and some just like the physical part of it and have no interest on seeing (or reading about) another vagina. Two penises would arouse me more than one. Since I've got a boyfriend, I've shifted towards more straight smut/porn/etc.
But I wouldn't doubt if there are some girls that identify as Jimin for example and project onto him when they write fanfics about whoever they want to be fucked by.

>>292173NU'EST has a pretty sad history. They peaked at debut, then people basically forgot about them, the company (Pledis) was also close to bankruptcy so they didn't have any comebacks for like two years. I was a big fan from their debut up until I saw them in Toronto a few years later and it was the saddest shit ever. They were all incredibly jet-lagged and looked like they might pass out any second, then they had to go straight to Texas afterwards. I've been getting back into it a bit lately, but kpop was never really the same for me after that.
I'm glad they seem to be doing better now after Produce 101. Needless to say, I was not surprised when they went on and the allegations about their shitty living situation came to light. Sorry for the NU'EST sperg, this is just something I've thought quite a lot about.

K-pop fans who mix English and Korean are so cringy. Why do some fangirls call other women noonas like "stylist noonas" or "Nicki noona", do you even understand how these honorifics work? Hyung and noona are used by younger males, oppa and unnie are used by younger females, and no, they don't mean the same thing as daddy or mommy. I know in some cases you can't translate these honorifics with an English equivalent, but these words are also used by siblings for their older siblings, if you are talking about someone's actual older sibling just translate it as "X's older brother/sister", you don't have to say "Hoseok's noona" or "Jeongguk's hyung" when you're talking about their older siblings. You don't use these words to complete strangers, don't scream oppa at some random Korean guy you see on the street, it's creepy. Even if they actually approach you, you won't be able to hold a communication in Korean for more than 5 seconds lmao. And just because you learned about the Korean age hierarchy, learned like 10 words from BTS songs and learned some of the popular South Korean foods doesn't mean you have a solid grasp on the entire Korean culture, you're not Korean, stop.

>>292838Yes, and the Korean government actively supports the global soft power influence of Kpop and Kdramas. It's even got it's own name, "Hallyu":
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_WaveIt does make me wonder what the next orientalist movement is gonna be. Weeaboos are definitely still going and have basically become normalized, from what I've seen, but Jpop's global appeal seems to be stagnating as a result of regional copyright claims and it doesn't cater as much to worldwide trends. That might be changing, though, because I'm starting to see more and more groups get added to US Spotify.
China is the most obvious contender, but they might just be happy to live off of their billion-sized population and not have to deal with international fans.
>>292848That's insane. I wonder if it was a group order, though? But there are definitely people who throw that sort of money at Kpop merch.

I know B.A.P is super irrelevant but one of their members was accused and is being investigated for sexual assulting a 20yo woman.
I'm not sure exactly what happened, the English article I read just said sexual harassment, but I look at auto-translated (phonefag) Korean article, that said he forceful raped her. Which the wording could be inaccurate bc it's pretty much Google translated.
Neither article say which member was accused.

Kek B.A.P's fandom has always seemed decent, especially for a kpop fandom. They're all scrambling to defend Himchan, and swear he's innocent tho.
They also think their company, TS, is behind the accusations (at least on Tumblr, I don't use Twitter) because all of their contracts are ending and they'll be leaving TS

알다시피 내 목소린 좀 꼴림
(As you know, my voice will turn you on)
남자든 여자든 랩으로 홍콩을
(Whether it’s a guy or girl)
보내는 유연한 내 혀놀림

>>293265That article was mistranslated and misunderstood.
>The interviewer ask about what he looked for in girls. He said their atmosphere and that it wasnt limited to girls, but applied to everyoneMost ARMY's take this to mean he like every one, regardless of gender
Clearly he was trying to say that in both relationships and friendships he goes off of the vibe people have
The lyrics are misunderstood as well. He was saying that his rapping skills (which he calls his 'tounge technology') are so good that anybody who listens to it will orgasm and even makes a blowjob/flowjob joke in the same verses.
If Suga said anything out right sus like that, Korea wouldn't let it slide. they're homophobic as fuck and would've dragged him and probably ruined his career for it.

Tbh they all seem too bfflike, so I find all these ships awkward. I guess the deal with some other ships is them fitting the unrealistic fanfiction stereotypes. However, I really don't see what's so interesting about Taekook, maybe it's because they are the 2 youngest ones so the young fans relate to them or whatever, but I see grown ass women in their 20s arguing about Vkook and Jikook as well so who knows.

Went on stan twitter for the first time in years. The fuck happened to his big ass nose. Shit crooked as fuck now.
And why the fuck are there so many fans? Kpop legit is a repetitive industry, just like most of US pop. Are these chicks tired of white American boy groups and would rather support an industry that's xenophobic towards them just bc their POC? Big headed, small dick, short men who aspire to reach shitty micheal jackson tier plastic surgery sounds like a good idea…
OML at least the girl groups are still cute. And yes, I'm talking bout Twice. Not no fucking Blackpink, those bitches grind my teeth.
Anyways, when will this whole thing die out. Honestly, them beating the group concept like a dead horse, is only in turn making the West do the same shit. Nothing wrong with bgs or ggs, even if they're not genuine bands or musicians, at least make em decent and fun.

a bts member says something that doesn’t explicitly disqualify poc from whatever they’re talking about and they’re a woke king- who cares if they had a photoshoot at a holocaust memorial and posed in nazi uniforms, fetishized an entire race, wrote demeaning lyrics about women, verbally attacked a 14yo or said the korean equivalent of the n-word with a hard r. other artists get crucified for the most minuscule shit but when it comes to their oppars everything is always everyone else’s fault.
they don’t care about doing the right thing, they don’t care about standing up for people unless it fits their agenda. all they care about is licking their oppars asses and doing whatever toxic shit they can to feel self-important. the hypocrisy, selfishness and narcissism radiating off of armys is disgusting.

The things he said and the fact that he kept her there to yell at her (aka didn't feel threatened by her at all) was scarier than him smacking her head. On the other hand sasaeng taxis are a legit danger and cause a lot of crashes so I can understand wanting to get her out of the car and preventing her following him any further. The taxi driver's gonna get back in the car at some point, so the only option is to get her out instead.
Anyway tbh it's kind of an unavoidably shit situation. I wouldn't trust any TVXQ/JYJ members as far as I could throw them, not even Yunho, it would be a miracle if they could get through all that sasaeng shit without fucking up and taking their anger out on them at some point.

>>294197She's not a cunt, people always take her choices of articles so personally like she has a vendetta about their favs specifically. If everyone was right about that, she'd hate 99% of kpop.
From the start she barely gave a shit about kpop and was more into kdramas, the only group she was a fan of was Block B. It's obvious she just translates a) the most popular articles and b) whatever will get her clicks. She wasn't posting positive JYJ posts years ago because their fans were manipulating upvotes to the point that it was a genuinely inaccurate reflection of the comment section. I doubt that is the case anymore, it's been so long, but their articles are probably just less popular unless they get involved in drama (in which case the comments are negative).

>>294198semi realted but Jaejoong's one of my personal favourite k-pop lolcows, along with Taeyeon and Miss A's Min when she was at all relevant. I don't really dislike any of them and like some of Jaejoong and Taeyeon's solo stuff but they're some of the funniest to read drama about. Jaejoong's 32 and still posts snide, bitchy comments about other idols, has blatant ana behaviour, has blatant drinking problems, used Yunho for attention as recently as this week, gets fillers to change his nose shape every couple of months, follows J-rockers about like a fanboy and the occasional old blind items about his sex life made it seem like there wasn't a model in Japan he wasn't having sex with, male or female. I don't think there's anything more sinister about him than any other idol but he's a serious attention whore. He was BFFs with Ayumi Hamasaki for a while, which sums up what I mean.
Are there any other idols with funny cow material? I think Taeyeon's been brought up a few times before but I like seeing idols who are entertainingly embarassing, not just ugly or short or bad at singing.

Their culture makes them so socially retarded and unable to function outside of their shitty age and gender roles that they would rather just not leave their little bubble. Jimin probably packs his suitcases full of instant noodles every time they have to leave and cries to the fan cafe about how much he misses (real) ARMYs everytime they go abroad.

I used to follow accounts that would translate fan cafe posts from Bts. Everytime they went abroad even for a short time they would write about how much they missed ARMYS and would return to them soon. Total slap in the face to the ARMYS they were going to see and who had probably waited years and spent a bunch of money just to see them. The crazy thing is that anytime a fan would bring this up, other fans would shout them down talking about how hard it is to leave home and how proud they are of their cultures. Nah they just are xenophobic af and don’t know how to relate to or appreciate people who aren’t korean.

The restaurant they went to was definitely a bit higher class, yet her reasoning for going there was simply because it's similar to a korean dish. On top of that the mc literally asks "You wanted to eat Korean food though, right?" to which they of course have to answer with yes.
They could probably get invited to eat with the queen and would still go on tv and say that their korean instant ramen is "better". I watched it because I wanted to know what they say about Austria and the girls clearly seemed to really enjoy the trip, they did and ate lots of interesting and fancy stuff, yet still lie about how superior Korea is.

>>294451He's cleaned up a lot since his military service, having to eat and act like a normal person made him stop acting like a teenager trying to seem edgy and rebellious. The drinking and weight issues are probably the most notable things, but it's been that way for years so it stopped being that interesting or milky after a while. If anybody wants to compile posts about other milky idols I'd be interested in reading them! I feel like a lot of the interesting stuff from people like Taeyeon and T-ara is older and there isn't as much excitement just from what's happening right now. Maybe I'm just not paying enough attention but none of the new idols seem that interesting individually
>his old Twitter account in 2011/12 had constant embarrassingly whiny tweets about the TVXQ split. They were going through some tough times, I wasn't emotionally invested enough in the group to care, so the tweets just seemed overly dramatic. He was a grown man acting like a 13 year old because his old friends didn't care about him anymore. I think the last was a dig at BoA last year when they were at the same concert and he tweeted about seeing people from the past who he didn't like. I'm sad he grew up a bit about it, his old posts were hilarious>when he stopped posting so many emo rants he started posting semi naked photos, progressively wearing less in his photos throughout 2013. This was also when he was drinking the most, barely eating and smoking constantly so the photos got progressively uglier throughout the year, making his desperate attempts to seem sexy hilarious and sad. I haven't seen any other idol reaching the level of attention whoring he had in 2013, and if there is one I'd love to see them. >his friend circle gets smaller all the time as he seemingly drops them. His ex friends include cocaine dealers, rapists, domestic abusers, and generally some questionable people. There's plenty of perfectly nice seeming ones (Hong Seok Cheon, Gummy) but I don't think old jokes about him being a cokehead are entirely jokes>according to a Q&A he posted online predebut, he also dated a 22 year old when he was 16 and they'd already been dating for 2/3 years (the blog that translated it said he was 17 but the date didn't match, so I moved her age down a year to match). So… a 14 year old and a 20 year old? >was briefly attending parties with a lot of old J-rock/visual kei guys, admits himself he emulates Hyde as much as he can. Could just seem like normal fan stuff, but given what those guys are like… probably not for the best. I think it's those parties that get lumped in with the 'bisexual orgy parties' blind items but I can't find any of those original posts now, just people talking about them>he talks a lot about his sex life actually, but in that overcompensating way highschool kids do to cover up the fact that there isn't much to brag about. He talks about being a masochist a lot, pays a lot of attention to fans with a lot of cleavage, but I will say I don't think he seems all that sleazy, just embarassing. >his face changes every few months. His eyes have tripled in size, his nose is always different and he's lost a lot of his jaw. It doesn't look too bad considering how much he's done, but he's going to start aging like Gackt soon.>has some really questionable tattoos, including a tramp stamp of his ex(JYJ is dead, only Yoochun fans don't believe it) members names and 'love and do what you wish' in Latin above his crotch. >his family/personal life has been a mess since 2006, but he usually isn't the one causing it himself. His birth mother and his adopted sisters cause most of that. Basically, he seems to do all he can to ruin the good image he somehow managed to have at one point. I remember reading that when he debuted he was told to just not talk on camera and I get why, it's taken this long for him to stop acting like a teenager. I stopped following most groups by about 2012 and only looked at new MVs every so often but there's still a few idols I check up on just to see what mess they're in now.

>>294477I can't speak for East Asia but
as someone who's from a different part of Asia, I thought that I'd want to mostly eat that place's local food if I went abroad. When I did go to a western country, I ended up mostly eating in places that made food from my country or western foods that I've already tried, so I understand why it happens. Not that I was against trying new food or anything, it actually sounds exciting to me. It was mostly because I didn't have that much money and I wanted to spend money on things I knew I would enjoy, but it obviously isn't the case for idols lol. I've seen other people from my country saying they were reluctant to try new food when they were abroad and they looked up for restaurants that made our food too. So I'll say it's just instinctive, when you're hungry the foods you love and you're used to seem more appealing than something you never tried before. Doesn't make it okay to be completely close-minded against all the other countries' cuisines though.

I was traveling in China with a korean friend and after one day there he whined and whined about how he forgot to bring shin ramen because Chinese food was too unhealthy. Kept trying to get us to go to korean restaurants. I told him shin ramen wasn’t healthy either and it’s rude to look down on another cultures food when you travel. He got mad and told me I wasn’t respecting his culture lmao. He literally could not comprehend that Chinese culture deserves respect too.
I can only conclude that similar to how korean cultural norms retard their social abilities, korean food retards their taste buds to the point where they prefer over processed, unhealthy, plastic korean food to real food in other countries. I swear it’s like brainwashing or something, far beyond the normal comfort of eating familiar food.
Anyway, I say all this to say that I can no longer see shit like this from idols and find it cute or brush it off. It’s obnoxious behavior that wouldn’t be tolerated by any other nationality yet for some reason, Koreans get away with it and are even praised for it by their international fans.

Some of them consider Bighit on their level. BTS is literally their only super successful group, while all SM, YG and JYP have trained a lot of successful groups, so I don't think it's true. Maybe in the future though

Bragging about toilets in Korea is the biggest joke I’ve ever heard.

>>294901i understand the wanting to be a little paler but i don't understand wanting to look as white as a sheet; i'm super pale and if i could i wouldn't mind being a little tanner naturally. there's so many harmful bleaching products out there–it's one thing to use tanning lotion or super white foundation, but tanning beds and bleach are so bad for you. i think idols like seolhyun (AOA) and tzuyu (TWICE) are so beautiful but they would sometimes get cursed to the high heavens for even daring to be dark skinned. i'm glad lately seolhyun has said that she's embracing the dark skin, i think it looks really good on her. it's ironic how a lot of korean's top beauties have had dark skin lately.

Apparently the Wikipedia article for most liked tweets got deleted most likely because BTS' random daily tweets were taking over lmao. Some of the other tweets in this list are Obama's tweets and Ariana's tweet after the Manchester attack. Their fame definitely has nothing to do with the internet guys

kpop idols' hair is fried as fuck in it's natural state. the majority of eastern asians already have fairly beautiful hair so it's a shame that their hair gets this bad. between all of the bleaching/permanent dyes and constant heat it's gotta be terrible for their hair.

>>295108Lol people going crazy already. I'm not saying this isn't a dumb move from CUBE, but I just hate the "uwu we love you Hyuna and Edawn" bandwagon coming from literally everyone. Why do people care so much? They knew this could happen and they know that kpop is build on the idea of stupid teenagers thinking you're their girlfriend/boyfriend. It was such a dumb move to come out, and especially say they were together for two years and reveal how much they lied on camera to a public that is really devoted to "my pure honest idols love me and will never lie to me". And no, things are not going to change so i-fans saying this is a statement and they are revolutionary for coming out is stupid and unnecessary. I hope they go to a better company and continue with their sucess, but they should had known this was coming.
I also like Pentagon and would feel bad if this affect them negatively, oh well… Anyone else follow PD and saw this tweet? God he's such a goody two-shoes. Nobody died dude, you can upload a reaction that almost nobody cares about. Kpop fans are such drama queens.

No. 295127
>>295043I was thinking to myself "maybe this song isn't that bad and I'm just being biased" but no, it really is their most underwhelming single ever. They used to make some fine songs, their music is going downhill. Love Yourself era was musically so weak. Do their fans even care about the quality anymore, or do they just let it slide as long as they get some fake ass shipping fanservice or their oppars being uwu baby boys
>>295093I wonder what worst could happen if they kept them and let them do their own thing? Hyuna is their most successful artist and Pentagon was gaining popularity as well. I'm sad for E'dawn, he was in the beginning of his career. Maybe it would be the best for both of them if they kept their relationship private. This whole thing is going to be sadder if they break up soon
>>295118Ugh this. This is what baffles me with shippers, why do you care about someone else's relationship so much? Everyone wants their personal space, people interfering with everything they do makes people uncomfortable. You think 2 people look cute together? Okay??? You don't have to get so obsessive and creepy over it.

>>295121Yeah, it's just shouting in the void. If people really want this bizarre control over idols' to stop, the best thing to do is stop giving companies your coins.
I feel bad for Pentagon, too, considering how they've been trying to regain momentum. Edawn and Hyuna have pretty good chances in songwriting/producing or independent music, whereas Pentagon just might be done for.
No. 295163
>>295155I was thinking the same thing, i-fans love her because she's a "badass" but that's not really what koreans prefer right? It kind of seems they prefer cutesy stuff and for their female idols to act all pure, etc. She was already grasping at straws taking her shirt off and stuff to stay edgy and relevant. I don't see it as a huge loss for CUBE either. They have Soyeon to replace her anyway as a younger version. She even has the same nasal sounding rap. Same for that rapper in CLC, can't remember her name.
I do feel bad about Edawn since I liked him in Pentagon, but honestly I didn't miss him that much on their latest MV so whatever. Hope they can stay afloat now that he's gone.
Let me add that I have some kpop fans on my Twitter that in like 15 minutes moved from complaining about CUBE to fangirling about GOT7's comeback or whatever, lol fans don't actually care. They have the attention span of a 5 year old. Just throw a cute boy their way and they forget everything.

kpop stan twitter are so fake woke, it's somewhat nauseating. even though they bash cube now, they'll blindly support (g)-idle's next release. none of these people are even fans of pentagon, they only mention e'dawn when they tweet about hyuna pegging him. which is a quite disgusting thing to tweet about, please stay away from their sex lives you freaks.

>>295269our best bet is probably a dating scandal (as in getting caught dating, not intentionally making it public bc i they should know doing that would cause a shitstorm)
@ the military thing, i reckon skoreans are nationalistic as hell and all about that patriotism so refusing to enlist would most definitely enrage the public. we’ve already seen how bts only care about the korean fanbase at the end of the day so making such a decision seems absurd to me.
No. 295275
>>295274It would be a horrible, insanely short sighted PR decision to do anything but have idols be enthusiastic and positive about enlisting in active duty. Anything else will ruin a man's image in Korea, and just doing well in the army is enough to get a tonne of praise when people don't usually pay attention to you.
Two years isn't that long for boy groups. They can stagger enlistments and keep the momentum going enough to retain a solid fanbase. Their hype will be over by that time anyway, all they need to do is keep the hardcore fans.

Thats why this is so hilariously ironic to me
She pussy popped her way to the top and now i think she'll fade into nothingness because kpop is only interested in quirkiness and false purity again.

BTS fans need to stop pretending that their group is more woke, independent, and artistic than they really are. They’re collaborating with a creepy old perv who makes money off infantilizing young girls, and they have collaborated with racists, sexists, and a child molestor-supporter.

I will never understand how BTS has so many fans, they are literally the ugliest group ever. I can understand NCT or even GOT7 having fans, even VIXX since they actually look like tall handsome dudes. But BTS? Midget town.
I've also been seeing a lot more tweets of "random people" (yeah right) fangirling about Jimin on my feed. Why do fans always act like they're not part of the fandom to give Jimin praise? I've only noticed they do it with him. Is it because he himself is so incredibly insecure?
