Have you seen those isekai animes in which a person from our world reincarnates in an alternative universe? Imagine those kinds of dynamics but in a kpop setting. You reincarnate as kpop trainee, you have new healthy young body and mind, but you keep all your memories from your past life, including all your kpop knowledge. Would you play the kpop game or would you nope out of it and just live a normal peaceful life? If you decide to play the kpop game, before you reincarnate, your magic guardian spirit supervisor tells you that you can magically choose all the details of your new life. -What is your ethnicity (Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Wasian, Blasian, etc.) and your physical appearance? (tall, short, very pretty, normal pretty, cute, etc.) -What kind of work position would you like to have? (main vocal, leader, dancer, visual, rapper, etc.,) -What age position in the group (oldest, middle, maknae, etc) would you have? -In which agency would you debut? -What kind of concept would your group have? -What would you do to avoid controversies and go to the most successful idol route? I would choose to play the game. My ethnicity would be half Korean/half Mexican, so I can speak Korean and Spanish. Being half Mexican would help me to have the support of the Latino public. I would be good at languages so I can learn easily English and of course Japanese and Chinese. I would have cute visuals, something between Illit´s Minju and Wonhee. My height would be 1.55 cm at debut, and as an adult 1.64 cm tall. I´d choose to be musically gifted (I can play piano and guitar, and learn instruments and music production easily), and to be a very good vocalist with perfect pitch a powerful voice (I can hit all the notes) and an unique tone that would set me apart from other idols. I´d be a decent dancer, good enough to do well all the choreos and not to be scolded during practice. I would go to Hybe to debut at 16 years old as the second vocalist and maknae in a group with a fresh youth concept but with some magic elements, like a girl group version of TXT. My route to sucess would be, in the first phase of my career, to be as aegyouful as possible, I´d be super cute and adorable, the public would love me as their younger sister. Beign cute is the key to success in Asia. I honestly think being cute has less competition and it´s less exhausting than being a visual or a main dancer or the most popular of the group, that´s too much pressure and hate. Being the cutest maknae would give me enough fan support during the years of my first contract. To avoid controversies I would start my good PR campaing as soon as possible, like always being humble and kind to everybody around me, and donating or volunteering to charities, that way, if haters try to go after me, my fans and the general public would defend me: "she´s so cute and small and humble, and she has donated to this and that, what have you done for other people", etc. Also I´d avoid men. No dating scandals at all for me. I´d spend the years of my first contract working in my composing and producing skills. I´d be like Suga, Yunjin or Martin, working in my group´s or even other artists music. Also like Yunjin, I´d start releasing soon my self composed music, so I´d start having fans who love me for my art, not just for being cute. That would lead me to the second phase of my career: genius young composer. Being cute has an expiration date, but creating hits that the public loves is timeless. I´d compose pop hits for my members solo releases, or other artists, and for my solo career, I´d go for a more alternative route. I´d have enough money from my pop hit royalties, and I´m not interested in being a main pop girl (too much pressure and hate), so I´d be free to explore alternative music and to have a cult following. I´d have the best of two worlds: pop hits money and creative freedom for myself. Also when I start dating in my 30s, I´d be too successful as a hit maker, I´d have fans who love me for my music so dating won´t affect my core fanbase. I think main pop girls or visuals can be replaced, but if you are the one making the hits, you´re set for like. That would be my route for a successful kpop life, lol. Thanks for reading all this fanfic. ;) What about you? submitted by /u/stellarmacaron [link] [comments]

Ew trump. I do not support any misogynistic, white nationalist, incel, hitler-like (esp. Musk), racists at all and neither does this sub and apparently neither does reddit as a site as a whole. He stands against everything Kpop stands for which is an art form from a formerly colonized people from a country that is rising up against colonialism and hatred. Anyone who comments anything negative to this, or tries to defend that orange guy will be banned permanently. Go somewhere else, we don't want your lower kind here.

15.791. A quick note about the generalization rule

  • 2 years ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

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]

1. Why didn’t 2nd gen groups get the same U.S. exposure as groups today?

  • 14 minutes ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

Groups like LE SSERAFIM, aespa, BLACKPINK, etc. are performing on American TV shows, doing interviews, late night appearances, even award show stages. But when you look back at 2nd gen legends like SNSD, Wonder Girls, KARA, T-ARA, it feels like they never got that same level of U.S. attention. They were very talented and I would say, pretty much to up to par as the popular groups today. Other than Wonder Girls briefly promoting in the U.S., you never saw 2nd gen idols on big American talk shows or mainstream interviews. No Jennifer Hudson, no Fallon, no GMA. It kind of feels unfair considering how much groundwork they laid for K-pop’s global popularity. Seems to be that the U.S. simply did not care back then, unless there's a better reason that I may not know about. Curious to hear your thoughts, submitted by /u/savingrace0262 [link] [comments]

3. Why are people still surprised by the daily fights between Blinks and ARMYs?

  • 51 minutes ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

Seriously tho, why are people still surprised by how nasty these two fandoms can get every single day? I’ve been seeing a bunch of posts lately sharing small bits from the daily fights between these two fandoms on Twitter/X — and honestly, why are people acting like this is something new? Are we really new to this fact? Because from what I’ve seen (and I’ve seen a lot), this isn’t anything shocking. Both sides have had their fair share of messy moments, and it’s been going on for years. It’s literally an everyday thing across multiple platforms, with Twitter/X being the main battlefield. People there love to hate-farm for likes and retweets — it’s ridiculously easy to get engagement if you say something out of pocket. Even some Korean web media outlets jump in just to ride the wave and boost their numbers. That’s why it’s so hard to tell what’s actually true on X anymore. Unless something’s verified by multiple reliable sources outside of the fandom bubble, you really can’t trust anything that comes out of those fights. submitted by /u/Daddy1007a [link] [comments]

11. What are some kpop related dead horses that you will never stop beating?

  • 2 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

One of mine will have to be people disrespecting Lisa and attributing her success to her “boyfriend” I know popular people are often popularly despised, it’s nothing new, and women are def disproportionately hated, but I get so angry (para social much?)when I see comments about Lisa getting all these gigs solely cz she’s allegedly dating a rich guy. Like guys, this is Lisa of BlackPink, she’s arguably the most popular member of the most popular girl group. The utter disrespect for her hard work and dedication is appalling. And what’s more infuriating is that these comments are often upvoted and, yk, accepted as the norm. Women have to deal with so much ridiculous bs and it keeps getting worse. Like I would genuinely crash out in a very public way if I were in her shoes. I don’t even have half her accolades and accomplishments, and I’d still lose my mind if anyone attributed any of it to a man. So yh, I’ll never stop talking about the despicable way Lisa is discussed and regarded in kpop spaces, even if it seems like most have already made up their minds about her and talking about it feels like whistling in the wind(especially on reddit). Feel free to share your dead horses that you won’t stop whacking submitted by /u/Mobile-Structure5702 [link] [comments]

12. Can we finally talk about the hypocrisy within the current Ablume fanbase?

  • 3 hours ago schedule
  • reddit.com language

I've been following Ablume's situation from the beginning, and seeing where her fanbase has ended up is truly heartbreaking. Since Ablume left ATTRAKT, her fans have been viciously attacking Keena and the new members who decided to stay with the group and rebuild. Worse still, Ablume's official TikTok account has also contributed to this scandal, which will fuel the hatred and indirectly encourage fans to continue their toxic behavior instead of moving forward peacefully. What angers me the most is that Ablume's story about ATTRAKT treating them badly has already been proven false. Numerous reports, documents, and statements clearly show that ATTRAKT was actually very supportive. The company provided for their education, healthcare, and daily needs. The real problem stemmed from The Givers company, which ATTRAKT hired to manage the girls' daily affairs. Givers CEO Ahn Sung-il and his team deceived and exploited both the girls and ATTRAKT. It later emerged that Ahn Sung-il had lied about many things, including his own educational and professional background. Despite this, Ablume chose to continue working with him in the same office, under the same management. This is a major red flag and completely contradicts their previous claims of wanting freedom and justice.What makes this whole thing even sadder is how blind many Ablume fans have become to these facts. They continue to demonize Keena, label her as a “traitor,” and harass the new Fifty Fifty members — people who had absolutely nothing to do with the conflict in the first place. The double standards are unreal. When Keena spoke up, she was ridiculed and attacked. When Ablume stayed silent or acted hypocritically, they were praised as “strong women fighting for justice.” How does that make any sense? I understand that fans form emotional attachments to idols — that’s natural. But what’s happening here isn’t fandom anymore; it’s blind loyalty mixed with misinformation. Supporting your favorite artists should never mean spreading hate toward others or ignoring facts that don’t fit your preferred narrative. The truth is uncomfortable, but it’s still the truth: ATTRAKT was not the villain in this story. Ahn Sung-il and The Givers were. And continuing to attack Keena or the new Fifty Fifty members only protects the real wrongdoers while hurting innocent people. I really wish more people in this fandom would stop and reflect before posting or sharing hate online. This constant negativity helps no one — not Keena, not Ablume, and definitely not the fans who once loved Fifty Fifty as a group. It’s time to let go of the hate and acknowledge the full picture. You can still like Ablume’s music without justifying everything they or their fans do. You can support Keena without being “anti.” We can have empathy for everyone involved without losing our sense of reason. Fandom shouldn’t be about picking sides to destroy each other — it should be about celebrating the music and the artists we love. I really hope one day the community remembers that. submitted by /u/GooseSignificant8293 [link] [comments]

13. End of year recap/ highlight reel using BTS songs

Hi everyone, I’ve always seen soo many beautiful compilations that people put together on their socials to celebrate the memories they’ve created over an entire year, and this year I want to put something together to look back on 2025, but I want to use a number of BTS songs rather than the standard “TikTok” template background music. For my 2025 highlight reel, what BTS songs would you recommend. My family and friends don’t tend to appreciate my love for BTS and often make quite rude jokes about them, so I’d like song suggestions that would be easy for them to also listen to without making a dig about our 7 guys and their music (although I think every song is incredible, I want something that goes with the background of a recap highlight reel and also is an easy listen for them) Thanks 🥹💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 submitted by /u/Faeeeeee97 [link] [comments]

Just a general question, does anyone else want to genuinely hear in universe song "Golden"? Because for all we can get, we only got like part of it, and then it's Rumi singing to herself. Like no way that the actual part of the song in universe, Maybe Zoey and Mira are singing at that part, idk. Might explain why they called it song about them, despite two singing only 7 seconds each.

I’ve noticed that a lot of idols are around college age lately, and it got me wondering what universities they might have attended if they hadn’t pursued the idol life. For example, I know Huh Yunjin once mentioned she was planning to study in Boston before training with Le Sserafim. But personally, she gives off total New York University vibes; I could see her majoring in something within the liberal arts, like English or Literature. Where do you think your faves would have gone, and what would they have studied? submitted by /u/Flounder-Cute [link] [comments]
