Name your ult groups I'll guess your bias

(my personal take on the recent tiktok video about bang chan live comment) . . You're in for a ride, you've been warned, if you can't take it, simply scroll over. Cause I don't sugar coat. This is intensely critical and gonna hurt some. After watching some of the clips on tiktok, I get where Bang Chan was coming from about fans crossing boundaries and the need to respect his privacy. I’m not saying he’s not allowed to draw lines. But the way he said it? The timing? The selective way he addresses things? It seriously pissed me off. Let’s be honest here those so-called “obsessive” fans? They’re the same ones who bought countless albums, stayed up watching your videos, streamed your music non-stop, and literally built the empire you’re standing on right now. You think people bought your albums and followed everything you did because your music is just so extraordinary? No. It’s not just about music it’s emotional consumption. People buy albums not because they’re obsessed with CDs, but because of the photocards, the jacket visuals, the limited edition merch, the fantasy of being close to their favorite member. If we’re being real, that kind of fan behavior is the very foundation of the kpop industry. You think SKZOO plushies and tour merch would sell in millions if fans didn’t feel emotionally attached even delusionally to you? You can’t spend years building a brand off fan affection, acting like their boyfriend at fansigns, constantly being warm and overly affectionate in lives like “Chan’s Room” where you literally invited people into your vulnerable space then turn around and act like fans are out of line for responding exactly the way you trained them to. If you truly wanted a strictly transactional relationship, you should’ve made that clear from the start. Don’t play the role of someone emotionally available, open, and comforting then lash out because it got too real for you. You opened that door. You sowed those seeds. And now you want to act shocked when you’re reaping the consequences? What bothers me even more is how he only seems to call this stuff out when it happens overseas. Why is it that he barely speaks to fans at korean airports, but then comes online to scold international fans when something happens abroad? Why is the criticism always directed at non-korean audiences? It gives the impression that he’s picking the easier crowd to target. Let’s also stop pretending kpop is just about music. It’s not. That’s why idols have to do variety shows, dance challenges, behind the scenes content, and livestreams just to stay relevant. If people only cared about music, we’d be on Spotify not buying 30 physical albums we’ll never play, just for a chance to pull one photo card, or to have a raffle for a fan videocall. This industry thrives on fan delusion and emotional investment and idols know it. So for him to just call out fan behavior without directly addressing the real cause the emotional manipulation built into the system is hypocritical. It’s frustrating watching idols benefit from that setup for years and then suddenly draw a line when it no longer benefits them. If you really want fans to treat you like a product, don’t package yourself like a person. Don’t create false intimacy and then pull back when it starts to get too close. Be consistent. Be honest. Or don’t act surprised when people respond the way the system encouraged them to. Side note (for those who always miss the point): Before anyone comes for me with the usual: "He’s a human being, get over it!" Yes, he’s human. No one’s saying he’s not. But this isn’t Hollywood this is kpop, and he’s an active idol working under a system built on emotional availability and performative intimacy. The rules of this industry are different, and the expectations are baked into the job. If he wanted 100% social privacy, then maybe being a solo artist not under an idol system would've been the better route. "He has the right to set boundaries!" Of course he does and I never said he couldn’t. But it’s the way he did it. His words, tone, and the blunt way he said “I’m a stranger, not your friend” made it clear that he now wants to see fans as transactional. But here’s the interesting takes, he wasn’t always like that. He offered fans friendship and closeness from day one. He blurred the line himself with years of emotional openness, affection, and comfort content. So why is it shocking that fans got emotionally attached? "whenever he opens his mouth he gets hate" , nope he don't, stop trying to victimize him, this only occur because he is easily among the few who like being open with his fans. He’s not 100% innocent in this situation. He helped create the very dynamic he’s now pushing back against. So yes, set boundaries, but own your part in how things got here. And last but not least this isn’t hate or a personal attack on Bang Chan, it’s an open critique of his behavior. Please learn to distinguish the difference. submitted by /u/Next_Butterscotch540 [link] [comments]

I want to attend LE SSERAFIM’s concert, but my girlfriend says buying a ticket isn’t enough and that I should at least have one song memorized to show the group appreciation. To be fair, I do enjoy their music and know their songs, just not by heart. Do you think she’s right? submitted by /u/Empanada_Devourer [link] [comments]

So I’ve always found a few things weird that “fans” do to their “favorite artists.“ I don’t get following them to the airport. Why do you do it? Why are you going to that place? Airport are so awful not only to common people but also to celebrities. Like I don’t wanna dress up to go to the airport and I don’t expect Heesung from ENHYPEN too either. Why do we put artists on God-like pedestals? I don’t mean like they have divine powers I mean like they don’t have human needs. Like there’s an ongoing joke in Kpop that K-pop idols don’t go to the bathroom. Snakes go to the bathroom the actual animal. Whales go to the bathroom, things that live the the ocean. Why can’t a human? You and I both have the luxury going to the bathroom why can’t K-pop idols? All they do is be better at singing, dancing, and having better face cards than we do. Why do we expect people to not have human reactions. Why are we mad that a K-pop idol cried on stage because of grief? Why are we mad that they were happy that they met someone they liked? Why are we mad when they have friendships with someone who is not of the same gender? Why can’t they be upset about something? If they are too emotional over something regardless, if it’s a positive or negative emotional reaction people get mad and I don’t understand why Infantilizing adults in K-pop. This one really it’s kind of self-explanatory. Why are we babying adult humans? The over sexualization of minors. This one really makes me angry. Because it was OK in western culture in the 2010s with the biggest boy band on the planet, One Direction. And I’ve seen it countless times in different years for different children in the K-pop industry. I’m still not over the fact that Ni-ki was on that sexiest men or hot people list as a child. He wasn’t even 18 in international age, but he was on that list And people were OK with that, no one was talking it and how wrong that was. Not to mention the outfits minors get put in, both male and female idols. That’s all that I can think of right now. If you have one that you think I missed, please put it in the comments I would like to know what other people think should be added to this list. submitted by /u/BeccaSirc [link] [comments]

What idols have mentioned they use chatgpt? Both privately and professionally. And what are your thoughts about them using it, especially professionally where they use it to write lyrics, etc. I know San from Ateez mentioned he talks to chatgpt. And Suho of Exo and the female idol (I'm sorry, I don't know her name) talked about how they use chatgpt to write lyrics. He used it to help him and she said she just tells it to write the lyrics (if I understood them correctly). submitted by /u/Nearby-Attitude-469 [link] [comments]

You might have seen my other post appreciating Ten's music with a clip of Lie with you, but this post is for Jaehyun (Nct bros are truly on a wild run) The album J is truly a work of art-Like how does one debut with such a masterpiece-Every song is truly exceptional. My personal favourite is Can't get you-It was really fresh on my ears and I truly enjoyed all the adlibs and instrumentals. Dandelion and Roses go bar to bar for second place for me. Very impressive album from him, like he is so damn fine and then makes fine music..is this a buy one get one free promo🤣 It really helped that he took the rnb route especially after I had overused, overshuffled, overplayed the dojaejung album( return to us dojaejung😩-can we go back hates to see me coming). Another great song from him is Unconditional-he released that one and then dipped to the military🤣. I'm super excited for what he will have post military. The songs in order of the video are: ROSES-DANDELION-CAN'T GET YOU-EASY-SMOKE-FLAMIN HOT LEMON-COMPLETELY Tune in to his music today guys!!- I guess I'm done feeling inclined for the day-Bye y'all!!! Side note(I wonder which post will get more traction)🤣 submitted by /u/Muted_Bodybuilder109 [link] [comments]

First I will say that Dahyun and Jeongyeon looked the happiest to be there. Lot's of energy off those two. Tzuyu and Mina must have stepped on the sound engineers foot because their mics are very low. Nayeon and Jihyo win for best effort but both are smashing their monitors into their ears but seemed to straighten it out during the break. Who must have stepped on the camera directors foot because more of their parts appear off camera? That would be Chaeyoung and Momo. I take back fixing the monitors I just heard Nayeon hurt a cat. submitted by /u/Sapriste [link] [comments]

She posted her second photo today, and despite being mostly silent on it, she's already sitting at 700K followers. At this rate, she might cross a million soon. I'm not bringing this up to reopen the bullying scandal again, people are entitled to their opinions on it. But for me, I followed her because it just felt genuinely unfair how everything played out. She was so young, and it all unfolded so fast and so publicly. Whether or not you believe she made mistakes, the level of backlash was overwhelming. I've seen some people question why there's still so much support and how the attention feels over-the-top or parasocial. I think a lot of people, myself included, aren't just "stanning" her but quietly hoping she gets another shot at life on her own terms. So I'm curious: Why do you think so many people still care about Kim Garam, even after all this time, and even though she was only in Le sserafim for such a short period? submitted by /u/prettymuneca [link] [comments]

I could go on and on and on and on and on...Pause did I say I could go on?? I could go on and on about how ridiculously great Ten's solo discography is. It truly is an amazing ride. I was going to drop two video clips-One of Water and one of Lie with you but sub only allowed me to post one. I saw stunner being posted a while back and it got some good traction, so I'm riding on the waves that the people might wanna listen to more ten hopefully. His discography is truly unmatched-Water, Lie with you, Stunner, Enough for me e.t.c I run to his music once I hear he will be dropping music. Ten+Jaehhun+Onew+Baekhyun-my personal goated combo for good solo music. I hope you take this as a sign to listen to his music-While you are at it, listen to Twist by Wayv(truly unmatched) submitted by /u/Muted_Bodybuilder109 [link] [comments]
