ONEWE - 4th Mini Album: MAZE : AD ASTRA (Concept Photo #1 - Individual)

For me, it's Gaeul. I don't stan IVE, but their release are generally too big to ignore, so I always check out the MVs and some Music Show stages for their comebacks, even if it isn't right away. So it's kind of crazy to me that I never really noticed how talented she is until XOXZ. She's proficient in pretty much every area an idol is expected to shine in: singing, dancing, performance, etc. She's got killer expressions on stage too, so I'm surprised that I never took the time to appreciate her before now. Even looking back throw IVE's previous promotions, I notice she’s been good for a while now. She clearly enjoys herself on stage, bringing appropriate power with every move she makes. She's fun to watch. I understand she’s in a stacked group starpower-wise. Yujin and Wonyoung are my favorites, so it's likely my eyes followed them on the stage so much I never paid proper attention to Gaeul. But now that I've noticed, I'll keep my eyes open, maybe even dig more into IVE as a whole. Anyway, what idol do you wish you'd appreciated sooner? submitted by /u/SageSageofSages [link] [comments]

I just need to get this off my chest. As a long-time Ten fan, it’s frustrating to see how differently his potential is being treated compared to what he actually brings to the table. • In Thailand, his solo concerts sold out fast, while WayV group concerts couldn’t even fill half the seats. That alone shows how strong his individual pull is. Fans here support him, not the group. • In Japan, he’s basically one of the biggest reasons WayV even has traction. Yet it feels like the company underplays how much of a key figure he is for that market. • In China, he doesn’t have the same base as local members, which makes his position harder, but it doesn’t erase the fact that his global fandom is powerful. What annoys me is that many fans feel like SM has never really maximized his potential. They push him when it suits the group schedule but never give him the long-term flexibility he deserves. And honestly, it makes me think: why would he want to lock himself into another long contract? I wouldn’t be surprised if he tries a short-term deal, just to support his teammates, but I also believe that independence would give him the freedom (and success) he truly deserves. TL;DR: Ten has the solo power to succeed on his own, but SM hasn’t given him the treatment he deserves. Thai fans mainly support him as a soloist, Japan sees him as a key figure, and globally he’s strong enough to thrive without SM. submitted by /u/92914_sunset [link] [comments]

So, for the non-stays here, Johnny is an influencer who‘s basically the personification of every stay ever and *lightly* crashes out whenever one of the boys gets a new hair colour or smth and I was wondering if other fandoms have that too? Because I think every fandom needs their Johnny (he’s great for news too since he doesn’t miss anything SKZ does) submitted by /u/DaGayEnby [link] [comments]

So I’ve been thinking about making a website that organizes photocards into easy to use templates. Right now on X you can find google drive links /images people have put together with album era/pob breakdowns and some of them are super detailed. But if you’re a new kpop fan, it can feel like a huge barrier. You don’t always know which accounts make good templates or where to even start looking. Like my younger sister wasn’t into kpop at all until she got into Ateez and she kept asking me where to find poca templates. That’s when I realized hardcore fans might already know where to go but newbies often get lost. My idea is to build a hub site where I’d make each groups poca templates to collect them all in one place. I’d probably start with the bigger, more popular groups first but eventually I also want to cover some of the smaller groups. And instead of just the usual album era/pob templates everyone expects, I’d also add fun themed ones like “most iconic pocas" or “underrated gems.” Because honestly pocas aren’t just about looking good. Fans love the goofy ones too and I think adding that kind of human side would make it more fun to browse. I’m not planning to monetize this. I just genuinely enjoy organizing things and I feel like this could actually help people, especially newer fans who want to collect but don’t know where to start. What do you guys think? Would this kind of pc hub actually be useful or is it something only I’d nerd out over? submitted by /u/MoneyKaleidoscope645 [link] [comments]

I’ve seen this mentioned before, and I think it’s worth bringing up again because it still hasn’t been addressed publicly by FnF. A fan pointed out that the current fandom name sounds inappropriate or vulgar in Brazilian Portuguese — reportedly resembling slang for semen, a curse word, or “f*ck.” This isn’t just an isolated joke; the concern has sparked real discussion among fans who are trying to avoid potential cultural backlash or misinterpretation, especially as the brand continues to grow globally. What’s confusing is that despite this being explained and discussed in detail by the community, FnF has made no public statement or acknowledgment of the issue at all. Even if the name wasn’t intended to be offensive, it seems reasonable to at least respond — or show that they're listening. To be clear: This isn’t a call-out or an attack — just a fair question about whether the team is open to feedback that could help avoid avoidable issues in international markets. Has FnF ever addressed this feedback officially? Are they aware of the concerns raised by that fan? Would they ever consider adjusting the name to avoid offensive associations in other languages? Open to hearing others’ thoughts on this — especially anyone who’s familiar with the slang being referenced. submitted by /u/Miserable_Reality_53 [link] [comments]

Hi everyone👋. It’s been quite a while since I made this post, so I’m back again. I'll go first. For context, my ults are TXT, BTS, and BOYNEXTDOOR. MOA = TXT fandom ARMY = BTS fandom Onedoor = BOYNEXTDOOR fandom I'm not too involved in ARMY spaces, so I won't be talking much about BTS, but i am aware that the members have been active on social media and also attending some brand events. Also, Suga recently posted on Instagram for the first time in two years🥹. Hopefully, kind ARMYs can give full updates on what has been going on so far For MOAs, TXT are currently on a successful US tour, so there has been a lot of excitement! Those who have attended have had mostly good things to say, and those who didn’t attend have been keeping themselves busy with fun concert clips. The group has been performing different encore songs at some stops, so there’s excitement to see what they’re going to perform each night. Apparently, their concert last night in Chicago was the first time they ever performed Cat and Dog (Korean version) in the US! For this US tour in particular, most MOAs are especially happy with how well it’s going because there was a lot of doomposting and fear mongering from fans and non-fans alike concerning the concerts. Many people were predicting that TXT might have to cancel some dates or perform in half empty venues because the concerts didn’t sell out immediately and tickets were selling slowly. Issues like the high price of concert tickets, the short announcement time of the tour (it was announced barely two months ago), the state of the US economy, people not having much to spend on luxuries like concerts, TXT’s tour being near the end of the year when people had already spent money seeing other groups earlier on, and even TXT having one overlapping day with Le Sserafim -- all contributed to the doomposting and pity farming, with posts like: “Ooh, poor TXT, they’ll have to perform in empty arenas, they’ve lost so many fans, look at all the tickets left,” all over many social media platforms. Some people even seemed to be relishing the prospect and looking forward to it Fortunately, those predictions didn’t come to pass. TXT are already halfway through the US tour and the concerts have been far from empty, with no dates cancelled. While no venue sold out 100%, having an 88%-95% sold rate still counts as a success. We also have a lot of things keeping us busy in the meantime. TXT's weekly variety show TO DO kicked off a new season recently and Mondays have become fun again. We also have Taehyun’s variety show “Tefficient Terry” every Wednesday. Currently, we’re looking forward to their Japanese album Starkissed, which will be out on October 22. Also, Yeonjun has been teasing and dropping hints about his solo album coming in November. The members have also been active on Weverse, posting on Instagram, and doing Weverse Lives, so the fandom is really well fed at the moment. There was speculation that TXT’s contract with Dior had ended because the members have been openly wearing a variety of different brands lately and Taehyun recently confirmed it that speculation. They became Dior ambassadors in 2023, and their contract with them is now over. Most MOAs weren’t too fond of Dior, and the majority sentiment is that they had more misses than hits with TXT during these two years. But the ambassadorship with Dior did give TXT opportunities to visit Paris and attend fashion weeks, which was something they hadn’t done before. Now that they’re free from Dior, MOAs are excited for what’s next in store for them fashion wise. Soobin was recently announced as Covernat’s new brand ambassador, and Yeonjun has been teased as the new ambassador for UGG. Most of the members already have ambassadorships for skincare brands as well, so MOAs are excited for even more opportunities for TXT. For Onedoors, it’s been fun as well. BOYNEXTDOOR recently announced their comeback, so it’s been an exciting time. They’ll be releasing their 5th mini album “THE ACTION” on October 20, so it’s going to be a really fun time! BOYNEXTDOOR also recently got their first Bonsang at the Fact Music Awards, and Onedoors were over the moon! With award season nearing and with their good digital performance this year, we’re all hoping that this is the first of many awards. In the midst of all this, we’ve also been enjoying a steady stream of their personal variety content, FUNNEXTDOOR, so things have been really nice. How about y’all? submitted by /u/ilovemeeeeee [link] [comments]

For a little bit of storytime, I’ve been a ONCE since 2015 and have already attended their concerts twice. I also influenced my daughter, and she became a fan at a young age. I promised her that when she got a little older, I would bring her with me. That said, this will be her first live concert. Do you have any tips for safety precautions? I tend to overthink, and I also want to make this concert a truly memorable experience for her. submitted by /u/jumpy404cat [link] [comments]
