Follow-Up Stage: YUJU (GFRIEND) - Orion @ Mnet M Countdown (250821)

Basically, I feel like that their rebrand isn’t that amazing. I really liked their old concept of girl power, feminism and the main topic of empowering women. It was really new in the K-community and I feel like their rebrand is not that new or fresh unlike their old concept and it kinda completely destroyed the whole point of the group in the first place. It was really nice to see a new concept in the community and their songs always had something to do with their main concept. Now, I feel like their music isn’t that ‘loud’ or lively as before. Anyways, idk, is it just me? submitted by /u/meenas_matcha [link] [comments]

These were the replies under an Instagram update about Chaewons' dog licking her face. The dog is lucky because it.. kissed her? https://preview.redd.it/xkuoh30tidkf1.png?width=544&format=png&auto=webp&s=8b30adaecb5b63ca710aca22daf6ebe986856d85 submitted by /u/Ilovehuskies1111 [link] [comments]

Preface: been a kpop fan for like twenty years. Attempted to advocate for kpop to be played on Western radios in early 2010s as a teenager (to no avail of course, lol). I'm not Korean, just an Asian person who revels in other Asians succeeding. I adore this song. From the production to the talented voices. It has truly achieved great things. BUT. I'm bitter that it took a whole animated movie for people to realise how much effort goes into the production of Korean music. I hope the voices the behind the song (Audrey Nuna, Ejae, Rei Ami) get more appreciation and get to sing this live at some stage. They're not just cartoon characters and deserve all the recognition and appreciation. Not to mention, the producers. Teddy Park is a household name in Korean music production, so he along with the others, also deserve recognition and appreciation. Golden is a win for Koreans, but if you read between the lines, it really isn't. The consequences of its success kind of feels like it derailed the progress of Koreans breaking into the industry. This song is one of the very few to make it globally, so let's not take the true artists for granted. (BTS doesn't really count because their music is only popular within the ARMY fandom, don't kill me pls, but you have to be naive not to see this). Also, it didn't really help that IZNA performed Golden at KCON, but lip-synced. Capitalizing on non-mainstream artists' voices is a bit... iffy. submitted by /u/AcrobaticEconomics76 [link] [comments]

A Jimin fan is bragging about how they went to an orphanage, gave the kids pizza, and made them vote for Jimin in the VMAs as a thank-you gesture. Like… what in the dystopian charity cosplay is going on? This wasn’t even posted as a joke. They genuinely thought this was a heartwarming story. And before anyone says “At least they fed them!” — yeah, feeding kids is great. But making that meal conditional on voting for your favorite pop star? That’s not charity. That’s manipulation. I love Jimin. He’s incredibly talented. But he doesn’t need orphans voting for him to get a Moon Person. Make it make sense. submitted by /u/Hemingrays [link] [comments]
