The winner of day 1, your favourite group, and our pretend groups group name is.... TWICE!! Todays question is who is your first bias? This can be your first bias from the first group you stanned or your first ult bias and can be from any boy group, girl group, or even a soloist! The idol with the most amount of votes will become our first group member. Since people were down voting answers on yesterday's question I'll be checking this through the day and will start counting votes (including upvotes) from when people first comment so hopefully it'll be a bit more fair for everyone. submitted by /u/xunyomi [link] [comments]

Being a fan of various artists throughout the years, I always brace for the period a kpop group goes through which my friends and I dub the "Journey to the West" phase. Typically a JttW phase is when a kpop group's comebacks and lead singles gain a noticeable change in several aspects. Most apparent is increased English/decreased Korean (eg a full English rap verse for the first time or a full English chorus, or a full English bridge). Also apparent is a forced execution of a concept that , frankly, feels like pandering because the executives' perception of their new target audience (i.e. us) is slightly different than who we really are. It's a journey to the Western market, so to speak. Anyways, I was upset by some recent comebacks because I felt the tracks compromised whatever group identity or cohesion built in the past 1.5 years. Underutilising vocals while increasing difficult to execute English rap verses written by people who didn't think about how it would fit with the idol (if at all) was particularly egregious. And to top it all off, many idols by this stage have few comebacks left because they get phased out by newer groups. I am worried this comeback will be a last one in a while. This. always. happens. BG or GG. And I can only complain to the echo chamber about this. submitted by /u/Schmidt_Spiel [link] [comments]

Just finished watching JIN live in GOYANG (day 1), for his sold out first show. What an incredible show. Inaudible backtrack, no lip sync- only ad libs and live vocals. Combination of many silly challenges and dramatic performances. Audience participation, chaotic energy and passion for music. I wish I was there to see it live. This concert adds up to other solo concerts of the members and bts as a group. 12 years after their debut, they still perform like it’s the last episode on a survival show, last chance to win a music show, sing well or you will get cut from broadcast, last chance to perform before disbanding. There’s no fatigue, there’s no complaining. Whether it’s injury or stress or long schedule- they never fail to deliver the best performance for their fans. 12 years, and antis still need to pull 3-4 same old saved clips from the vaults of voice cracks to drag the members’ talents. Countless conspiracy theories and accusations from kpop stans and legacy media owned by other companies - it’s the one place no one can catch them breaking. And it makes me feel good that the group who is enjoying the most success is truly the one who can deliver FOR THE FANS without any excuses. submitted by /u/Gisntd [link] [comments]

I already know namjoon and yunjin love reading (which makes me love them even more), but are there any other idols who’ve shared book recs, talked about literature, or are known to be readers? Curious to know who else gives off reader vibes. submitted by /u/thepluralofu [link] [comments]

I’ve been thinking about how “hard work” is constantly celebrated in K-pop and not just hard work, but extreme, almost self-destructive effort. We see idols praised for practicing through injuries, performing while sick, pushing through mental health issues without break. Crying on stage from exhaustion is seen as passion. Losing sleep becomes a sign of dedication. Skipping meals = discipline. And when idols don’t show these signs of suffering, people question whether they’re truly trying. It makes me wonder: When did burnout become proof that you “deserve” success in K-pop? What’s even more complicated is how fans participate in this dynamic. We cheer when idols go “above and beyond,” but what if “beyond” is dangerous? Why do some people call an idol “lazy” for taking a hiatus, but admire another for overworking themselves into a hospital visit? This isn't just about companies being exploitative (though that’s a huge part). I think the fandom plays a role too. Somewhere along the way, “working hard” stopped being about effort and became about endurance. How much can you sacrifice? How much pain can you push through? And honestly... If someone we loved was living like this, would we call it admirable? Or would we be worried? submitted by /u/Seesawey [link] [comments]
