Lovelyz Ryu Sujeong - NEW CAR @ SBS Radio Cultwo Show (251005)

Hey folks! Over in r/kpop we just posted a new special Town Hall that is focused only on the Flairs we use to help organize our posts based on content categories. Link to r/kpop's 'All About Flairs' Town Hall We included announcements for new flairs here on r/kpoppers and also on r/kpophelp. The following is the section relevant for this subreddit. NEW FLAIRS! Connect - This flair will be used for anything where fans are trying to socially connect with each other. Announcing new K-Pop subreddits or Discords, looking for mutual fans on social media, wanting to meet up at a concert, seeking fans in a region to form a dance group, networking for a fan project, announcing a K-Pop night at a club, etc. Research - Academic surveys related to K-Pop or fandom topics. We'll keep an eye on these new flairs to see if they create any confusion or need adjustments. Let us know if you have any thoughts, concerns, or questions! submitted by /u/alleybetwixt [link] [comments]

The subreddit is mostly uncensored as long as people follow the rules. Generalizing statement about Korea, Korean society, etc or most other countries are not acceptable except under the following standards: The only claims that are acceptable when generalizing Korean society in this sub are those that bring up generalizable stastical claims by the standards of the international statistics institute. Not only do the vast majority of stastistics you can find on the internet about Korea not up to this minimum, basic standard but this requirement includes having ample sample size, blocking by relevant demographics and sometimes even double blind tests. So if you make a generalizing claim, your wording must be properly formatted and links to the relevant studies provided. In other words, the standard for making a generalization is very high in this sub. Not to mention the wording for your claim has to be properly made. Anyone who has taken a college level statistics class will know what I am talking about and we may even require you to provide the confidence level interval if it's relevant for your study. If you cannot meet these standards, I would just avoid doing it in general. submitted by /u/Kpop_Love_Forever [link] [comments]

I don’t see a lot of it and honestly with how ruthless some people can be in these fandoms I’m terrified to post anything. Is it really that bad to post? I’d love to find other artists, but I’m really scared I’ll get made fun of because my art is bad. I really like kpop boy group songs and want to draw fanart of them but idk :( is it worth it? submitted by /u/DepthIntelligent3264 [link] [comments]

As the title says, on which albums do you like the title track the least? You don't need to dislike it, just prefer the b-sides. Right now, I can think of DUH! by P1Harmony from the album DUH! and Whiplash from aespa's album Whiplash. I really like both albums, but I just prefer the b-sides! Excited to hear y'all's opinions! submitted by /u/roses_are_rosie1206 [link] [comments]

In EVERY single live, I will always see comments saying; Where is *member name* - YOU GOT A NOTIFICATION SAYING AN IDOL IS LIVE ON THEIR ACCOUNT, MEANING THAT YOU WILL BE SEEING THAT MEMBER THAT WENT LIVE, NOT ANY OTHER IDOL OR MEMBER! SPEAK ENGLISH OPPAR - This actually pisses me off. They are a KOREAN idol, in a K-POP group, in the KOREAN industry. Stop asking idols to speak ENGLISH! If you want to know what they are saying so badly then learn KOREAN!! Why do people always expect non-english speakers to learn English?? Is *Ship name* real (or just shipping in general) - Stop, like actually STOP! Shipping 2 idols together is just weird, and even more weird when you keep mentioning it in a live chat! And shipping also ruins friendships. Like, please, just comment normal stuff!! Surely it isn't that hard?? submitted by /u/Ilovehuskies1111 [link] [comments]

The Korean lyrics are truly beautiful. This is very poetic. It seems like the lyrics were written by choosing the words that make the Korean language feel the most beautiful. I'm so sad that if it's translated into English, the original feeling doesn't come through completely. submitted by /u/Embarrassed_Clue1758 [link] [comments]

So for those who don't know Pentagon's Kino recently released the MV for his new song Club Sex Cigarettes and in the MV he plays the role of a degenerate incel gooner who hates his job. In one scene, his "character" is seen watching a (blurred) porno while eating pizza. Basically, this ended up blowing up with tons of people on Twitter just seeing that one scene and coming to the conclusion that Kino himself is a raging misogynist incel. Now, to anyone who A) is over the age of 14, B) has the slightest shred of media literacy, and C) has watched more than this 5-second clip of the MV, it should be very clear that Kino is not endorsing this behavior, and that the MV is very clearly a commentary framing this in a negative light. But apparently nobody bothered to actually look into it and now Kino has had to release a statement clarifying the message and claiming that he'll change the MV. This is already frustrating as his artistic integrity on a very interesting piece of social commentary has to be compromised due to a lack of media literacy. But on top of that, most people will have only seen the scene itself and other people calling him a misogynist and will probably not see his statement and realize his actual intent. Also, for some reason people are bringing the whole fiasco of Irene and Seulgi's oyster controversy. Which, aside from everyone being completely wrong on the meaning of Kino's MV, should not really be connected to thisi. I do know there's stuff being said on how it was radical feminists who didn't like it – I'm not completely sure tbh and haven't really looked into it, but that aside, even if Kino was a raging pervert, why is the criticism of Irene and Seulgi's controvery being directed at him and not at SM who controlled the whole thing? Once again it feels like fans are more concerned with attacking idols than the companies controlling it all (see: ex-Momoland Daisy controversy, Newjeans/Illit with Hybe/MHJ controversy, etc.). And as someone who ults Pentagon, what really pisses me off is that now most people will be walking away from this thinking that Kino is just a crude incel. Universe isn't really a big fandom that can do much to protect Kino, and also keep in mind that Kino is literally not under a company – he releases through his own one-man NAKED company, so he'll pretty much be controlling the flames alone. Usually, I'm a follower of the "get of Twitter and touch grass" mindset when stuff like this happens, and maybe I'm just biased, but this isn't a fan war as much as a one-sided unjustified attack on Kino. Ultimately, this controversy could end up damaging a smaller idol like Kino's career for zero reason. The nature of social media is that everyone will see the scandal and much less people will see what actually happened. Here, an idol's career could be permanently damaged because of the ignorance and inflammatory nature of Kpop stans. As one final remark, I'm well aware of the dangers of thinking that idols are good people without actually knowing anything about them. But I just want to point out that Kino was one of the few male idols who supported the protests against President Yoon, recommended feminist literature, and told fans to not be restricted by gender norms in clothing. (Shoutout to u/Mundane_Detective_41 on r/kpop for the links). Not to mention that he just released a song commentating on and criticizing (and very much not supporting) misogynist incel gooners. This controversy is leading to a rise in "all Korean men are misogynist bastards" comments, and, although there is seriously a massive problem with misogyny in Korea, the fact that these attacks are directed at someone with a history of supporting feminism for releasing an artistic work commentating on and criticizing said misogynists and are going to hurt him the most genuinely pisses me off. Ironically, I didn't really fuck with the song when I first heard it (it's just not my style of music and that's fine) but now I feel obligated to support it after all this shit. submitted by /u/MelonSoda3 [link] [comments]

I cannot wait to hear this live. submitted by /u/visverus [link] [comments]

I get really down when I see hate on my ult groups (BTS/SKZ/ENHYPEN) and I get REALLY REALLY UP when there's good news or a live or whatever. Like more so than I do in my regular life. So the test got moved to Monday? Yay. We're going to Seattle? Yay 👍. I scored really good on the standardized testing? Yippee... NAMJOON WENT LIVE? DIWFUHIRQHEHKHKREYOOOOOOOOOOOO You know what I mean? I've got posters and things and about $200 worth of albums, and I've only been stanning for a year. It's not taking over my life, my screen time is still low and I spend time on many things other than K-pop related stuff. It's just the only thing that makes me super happy anymore. Anyone relate? submitted by /u/possibleoutcast_ [link] [comments]
