Being the Sunshine/ Energetic/ Positive Role in KPOP seems really hard

I'll preface this by saying I don't know any kpop idols personally, and these are just my opinions, not the idols involved. But whilst watching ATEEZ+ yesterday, they spoke about how Yunho faced pressure to be the positive moodmaker, lifting both the members and fans up but has taken more time to be on his own and recover so he can be more positive on stage and with fans. And I am so relieved that he got to do that, because I think it is SO DRAINING to be the one giving all the energy, love, care and positivity as well as making fans happy and laugh so often. There's other moodmakers too like Wooyoung and San and it feels like they do so much to make people smile and stuff.... Not saying it's bad! I cannot say their feelings on it as I'm not them, but I know I'd burnout in such a role. Hey also Hongjoong goes so FAR for atiny it has me like "i hope ur ok dude" idk ATEEZ has me worried as they will go to such massive lengths to make atiny happy. I feel the same worry like when watching Stray Kids and Felix had a pretty huge role as the Sunshine, giving endless joy and tbh it seems so pressurising to have to give so much so often, being everyone's angel and sunshine. I'd definitely become a fallen angel and turn to hell if I was him (luckily he is not me lol). LOL he's much stronger than me to handle such a demanding role. 😭 Don't get me wrong I bet some idols love doing this stuff, or have better balance at sharing energy and light with resting than me. Some may loove it and do it like breathing. I just feel like as a person who was a people pleaser who acted like a clown and entertainer to keep people happy, I just assume that based off my own experience- it's a REALLY HARD job. Like even I when I had energetic friends I assumed they'd be happy 24/7 or was confused when they seemed quiet but from chatting to them- I realised they may want time to stop giving so much light all the time, and to just... pause. That's why I get a bit worried whenever there is a "happy virus", "sunshine" or a member expected to be the entertaining, loving and/or weird one all the time, who makes everyone laugh and smile- that aint easy to do and is a huge expectation that can have tough results if its taken too far. I hope they are being cared for and allowed to rest too. That sunshine is being given to them as well. Because those in giving roles do deserve to be uplifted as well and have people do moodmaking for them too. submitted by /u/AngleFormal [link] [comments]

33. Kids today would never understand how it felt watching your favorite idols go on ā€˜We got Married’

  • 6 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

Having idols consistently join popular shows like ā€˜We got Married,’ ā€˜Law of the Jungle’ and ā€˜Real men’ are what gave them better exposure outside of their group and I’m really sad that we’ll never get that back. Nowadays it’s like making sure every member or most of the members attend these variety shows together instead of helping each member get their own moment to shine individually away from their group and show their personality. Law of the jungle and real men were the perfect shows to give idols the opportunity to be their own person outside of their group & i miss it so much. Like people didnt really know who Henry was until he joined ā€œreal menā€ and he immediately became everyone’s FAVORITE. Variety shows used to give ā€œunderratedā€ members and idols the chance to receive the love and support they actually deserve 😭 It gave them the recognition they needed. submitted by /u/Which_Mammoth9402 [link] [comments]

34. Was there ever an instance of K-Pop idols making/doing something out of pure spite but everyone loves it?

  • 6 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

It's in the title, but let me explain. There are quite a bunch of instances in world history where something was made out of pure spite but it ended up being viral, iconic, or even a classic in today's world. An example of this is when chips are made. Someone kept complaining that their fries are so soggy so out of spite the inventor sliced really thin potatoes and now we got chips out of it BGABKJRG In the music world, there are many songs that were done out of pure spite but became hits such as John Lennon's "How Do You Sleep". Do you think there was anything similar in the K-Pop World that became a huge hit/classic although the maker did so out of pure spite? Was there ever an Idol who did something else out of Pure Spite that ended up becoming a well-known fact in the K-Pop World? I'm curious, so give me all the details you know! submitted by /u/blucheezecake [link] [comments]

35. Do K-Pop comeback eras still feel idk...special?

  • 6 hours ago schedule

It feels like a lot of groups these days just drop an album, promote for one week, do a couple TikToks, and then dip 🫤 Not much content at all. No creativity in terms of marketing. No themed exhibitions pertaining to said group's concepts. They could do cool comeback activities involving fans? Maybe like a fun scavenger hunt? Mini fanmeetings? Fun limited time events with local businesses?? submitted by /u/No-Vehicle1562 [link] [comments]

38. Do you feel like idols/groups having a bunch of backup dancers sometimes ruins the performance?

  • 6 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

I’m mainly referring to during concerts / tours. Have you ever attended a concert and thought ā€œdamn they did NOT need this many backup dancers on stageā€ it’s sometimes just overstimulating and distracting because the backup dancers have such intense amount of energy and choreography whereas the idols have a much mellow - low energy choreography. Groups with like 5-6 members do NOT need 10+ backup dancers on stage for concerts 😭 I think Jhope - killing it girl is the only exception where having backup dancers have their moment to shine on stage actually fits so well. I havent seen the performance in person but even just on camera, it looks great! (im not even an army) submitted by /u/Which_Mammoth9402 [link] [comments]

40. Why are some idols requested to be MC more than others?

  • 7 hours ago schedule

What are the criteria for which idols are picked as MC? For example for an entire season of a music show? I can think of Sung Hanbin who has done MC gigs many times, even for kcon LA (despite the fact that he is not as fluent in English as Matthew or Jeon Somi), and he has been great! But what are the characteristics that makes him a good MC? And a good MC in general? submitted by /u/Ordinary_Cat_01 [link] [comments]

43. Ever heard of "Sonminsu"? The Korean word for when you copy your bias, but in the cutest way possible

  • 8 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

Okay so there’s this word in Korean fan culture that I think more K-pop stans should know: "sonminsu" (ģ†ėÆ¼ģˆ˜ķ•˜ė‹¤). Basically, it means copying your fave’s outfit, accessories, or style because you love them that much. Like, instead of "I just bought the same hoodie Taehyung wore", they'd say simply "I sonminsu’d him." It’s like saying ā€œI’m being a copycatā€ but in a totally affectionate, not-weird way šŸ˜‚ But here's the fun part. The word actually comes from a Korean webtoon called There’s a character named Son Minsu, who used to imitate the main character in a lowkey creepy way (outfits, behavior, speech... the whole vibe). So originally, it had a somewhat negative meaning. But fans took the term and turned it into something playful and sweet. Now in Korea, people casually say "I sonminsu’d this!" when they buy something their idol wore or used. Tbh I find it kinda genius. It's way easier than saying. ā€œI saw my bias wear this shirt three weeks ago and spent two hours on Twitter and $95 later I finally have it too.ā€ Also, pro tip: If you want to find out what your favorite is wearing, try searching their name + ā€œģ†ėÆ¼ģˆ˜ā€ on Twitter. It’s like a fashion detective goldmine. ✨ TL;DR: Sonminsu = lovingly copying your bias’s style. submitted by /u/SignificantElk5574 [link] [comments]

44. Fanwars aren't going to stop me from listening to music

  • 8 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

I saw this TikTok where someone said they stop listening to music if the fandom of the artist is bad. I get it if you don’t want to associate yourself with a fandom or if it was your first impression of an artist, but removing songs from your playlist just because the fans are annoying? That makes me wonder are you there for the fans or the music itself. For me personally, I really don’t care what random Twitter stans have to say. I listen to the music I enjoy, and I don’t let the behavior of other people dictate what I like or how I experience it. The music exists on its own, and the fans shouldn’t control whether or not I appreciate it. submitted by /u/Due-Design-3484 [link] [comments]

46. What are the groups in which the most popular member has changed over time?

  • 9 hours ago schedule

I heard that in their early days, Minho was the face of the group and he's still very popular, but the other members have also risen up too. Taemin has is solo career and Key has all his variety shows. What are some other examples? Also, if I'm not mistaken I remember during 2021-2022, Taehyung from BTS was the most popular member, but it's probably Jungkook and then Jimin now due to the solo era. What do you guys think? submitted by /u/Sea-Republic8892 [link] [comments]

47. TWICE would be more successful with only the members from "Dat Ahh Dat Ooh"

The main problem with TWICE is that the group is too damn big, and it's hard for new fans to get into. And I think they could only have Jihyo Sana Tzuyu Dahyun and Chaeyoung and be more successful than they ended up being. submitted by /u/SpecSlayerSC [link] [comments]

48. Itzy's career is completely dead in the water at this point. What were the reasons?

  • 9 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

1) Bad song selection. JYP's a&r department has been abysmal the last couple years, especially when you compare them to a behemoth like SM that always hits. Sneakers, Cake, gurs will be gurs, who ever choses these songs should be fired into the sun. 2) Bad promotions. This is one is pretty key as JYP holds the members back from any individual activities that stunts their growth. A massive error on their part. 3) No star quality. None of the members really grabbed people enough to keep them in the limelight, as opposed to other group's whose personalities have really captured people's attention. I hope jyp learns for the next their next girl group. Choose girls with star power and give them good songs again, not repetitive mindless stuff they put out now. submitted by /u/Lost-Investigator266 [link] [comments]
