My advice for Blackpink (or any group)? Leave the K-Pop before the K-Pop leaves you:

It's no secret that there are a ton of questionable styling decisions within kpop. But when it comes to the critiques of how a larger idol is dressed I find that the thought processes behind them can be damaging. I understand wanting to rally against mistreatment, but I genuinely believe that most "larger" idols aren't dressed as poorly as people believe. The critiques I always see are that an outfit makes the idol look "frumpy" or it's not "flattering" enough. I rarely ever see those critiques when it comes to bad outfits that skinnier idols are made to wear. What's "flattering" or not can sometimes be fatphobic in itself. At least the way most people seem to use it. Whenever a larger idol isn't wearing something skintight is when I usually see these kinds of comments. Just because an idol wears an outfit that makes them look bigger, doesn't mean the outfit isn't cute. A flowy shirt might not be the most "flattering" but it can still look good. Rolls being visible from a cinched shirt doesn't automatically make an outfit frumpy. And if a larger idol is dressed modestly it doesn't automatically mean the stylist is ashamed of showing their body. The good intent is there, but I feel like some of these conversations become hurtful when people are trying to discuss it. As a larger woman myself, it's easy to note what kind of outfits people deem unwearable for idols. It's almost always something that makes them appear bigger. Suddenly its not "flattering" enough. No, it just doesn't make them appear as skinny as possible. Why is that a bad thing? Does anyone else feel this way? submitted by /u/Correct_Mix_5163 [link] [comments]

There is a Brazilian dance team group that I follow, but they did one video recently that really catches me, I think they gave Gnarly all that the music deserves. submitted by /u/LunathickD [link] [comments]

all I gotta say is that I'm hyped ever since famous came out. the follow up with the performance for wicked, the hiphop style totally suits them sm. I'm ready for whatever they release next tbh and they already have a grand entrance into Kpop as our 5th gen coed group!! rooting for them submitted by /u/blue_moon48 [link] [comments]

I think army and really any fan of army needs to just relax and breathe. I feel like alot of army are getting paranoid and worried that BTS will have a hard time making new music and it will not go well in due to them being out of group work for 2 years. As well as the changes in the industry where we need our groups to outshine and be on top of the western market and other kpop groups. I feel like before they went to the military it felt more calmer and slower pace since they were at the top, but when they left the industry it became crabs in a barrel to try and fill their space. Now that they are back I think it's best for them to start just focusing on experimenting and getting back into group work. Army needs to block out everyone else and focus on the boys by supporting them. And I'm not saying block out everybody else as in not stanning or not being a fan of other K-Pop groups, but blocking out the noise of trying to compare them to other K-pop groups instead of just letting them experiment and find themselves as a group again. submitted by /u/MochaMilku [link] [comments]

Except Jisoo) but like, did we all forget while we were talking about kof?? I know it’s not recent but even when it first got leaked no one really cared lol- ppl care even less now.. submitted by /u/Hot_Major3327 [link] [comments]

Maybe I'm just salty but seeing adp climb up kcharts like they just released the best debut single we've heard in years is truly something. So many great kpop songs released this year didn't even see the top 10 of melon hot 100 but all it took was choppy lyrics, cultural appropriation, and ai to do so and I can't help but laugh. I genuinely feel like I'm being gaslighted is everyone fake gagging or am I just being a hater? submitted by /u/SympathyRough5235 [link] [comments]

The golden era is SUCH a disappointment. I’ve been stanning ateez since 2021 "kingdom era". And I’ve never been disappointed, fever era was incredible, the world era was A-MA-ZING, but golden is just…meh. The only song I liked was selfish waltz, which is one my favs now, but please ??? The work album was just so different from what they usually do, IOMT had good b-sides but the title track wasn’t good. Lemon drop is SO boring. I’ve been so disappointed but I still love them so much, I just hope they go back to their usual style. I don’t know if it’s only me though because I saw lots of people loving Work, IOMT, and lemon drop. But if we compare these title tracks to, Guerilla, bouncy, Crazy Form, Deja vu, Inception, Thankxx, The real, Fireworks, Answer, Wonderland, etc… The new ones are just so weak and it’s losing their "Ateez style" ☹️ Usually ateez always give everything for the last 30 seconds of a song, but there’s not even that anymore ??? I just don’t recognize their music anymore. Am I the only one ??? submitted by /u/Lazy_Permission_5878 [link] [comments]
