What are some Kpop facts that sound fake but are true? submitted by /u/Logical_Sweet_6624 [link] [comments]

I’ve been thinking about idol dating scandals, and I realized the reactions are so different depending on where you are. Like in Korea, a lot of fans get angry when idols date because they feel like: “You marketed yourselves as selling romance/fantasy, so why are you dating behind our backs? Are we basically funding your girlfriend’s luxury bag?” It’s almost like they take it personally, as if they’ve been cheated on. Meanwhile, in global fandom spaces, the general vibe is more like: “They’re not my partner, lol. Of course idols can date, marry, have kids. It’s their life.” So I’m curious. Why is there such a divide? Is it because the “selling point” of idols is different in each market? Like in Korea, fans buy into that “romantic fantasy” marketing more, while international fans focus on music, performance, and personality? How do you personally feel about idols dating? Do you think it should be a “scandal”? Or is it just part of normal life that fans shouldn’t interfere with? Even though I don’t really care whether my bias has a gf/bf or not, I kinda also think that you can’t ignore the idol industry structure itself. Agencies literally package idols as “available” and profit off the parasocial fantasy. So when dating news breaks, it feels like it clashes with the very product they’ve been selling. In that sense, fans’ anger isn’t just personal. It’s baked into the system. submitted by /u/SignificantElk5574 [link] [comments]

I used to be a pretty hardcore K-Pop stan back in 2018-2021, but then uni Got Serious so I was forced to put my fangirling to the backburner for a while, and eventually I just kinda lost touch because.... let's be real, COVID kinda killed the fun of things. At least it did for me personally. A lot of my ults ARE my ults because they get so much energy from their fans and the crowd, and a lot of them felt a bit off performing in empty halls. Not to mention 4th gen was the real start of companies putting dance and performance ahead of vocals, and as a vocal stan (atp my bias list was Seungkwan, Jihyo, and Haechan) I found the new blood a bit disappointing bc of it. However, around mid 2024 my roomate put me on to Boynextdoor, and I immediately couldn't believe my eyes because... wasn't fun kpop dead? why were these men so energetic? how are they performing on stage like this is something they actually love doing and not just a way to make money? why are they having such fun interactions with idols of all makes and genders and generations? BND nudged me back into the fandom, but it was actually Riize that pushed me back in. Odyssey is one of my favourite K-Pop albums of all time, flaws and all. It felt like it was made specifically according to my tastes and reminded me that the original reason I became a fan was for the music and the *singing*. Such a strong showcase of vocals from a group that I distinctly remembered being rather lackluster gave me hope that the new generation was not as bad as I thought it was, which turned out to be true. Since then I've been casually listening/following a few other newer groups: ILLIT, TWS, Kiof... As a 9-5 corporate wage slave, having this hobby back has genuinely improved my life so much, and I wanted to share that experience somewhere, and lowkey i kinda wanna hear if anyone else has had similar experiences. that's about it. submitted by /u/Unsincerity [link] [comments]

Don't nitpick the title of the post, you know what I am talking about. Right now I feel the expectations from every group is to deliver hits after hits after hits especially from girl groups. Lots of talk about how this comeback doesn't hit like before, they couldn't continue their "steak", doomposting, sabotage etc. But expecting every comeback to be the same level or above, it's just not that realistic sometimes some comebacks won't hit the same you will disappointed etc and I am not saying you shouldn't criticise of course you can but I think it's not something that needs overreaction and trolling. Especially if the group is already very popular. I feel some people feel too comfortable to be mean spirited and wait to get the opportunity to be mean and negative especially if they already don't like the group. And I think it's worse for girl groups maybe because they have comparatively less dedicated following than boy groups and much more casual interest and following. The recent situation with Aespa made me want to post this cuz as someone who doesn't keep up with them and doesn't follow them that much it feels like there's a lot of negativity towards them this year especially after the way people loved their music last year so it felt like people were waiting for them to slip ( of course there are valid opinions/discourse about them like their lip syncing ). This reminds me of their girls era where people didn't like their comeback and there was a lot of negativity that time too but it felt like things got better for them last year but then... Again they were the inspiration for this post but I feel this has happened with other groups too. submitted by /u/DiMpLe_dolL003 [link] [comments]

For example I hate when people say that they themself is a "99 liner". To me it doesn't work when you are talking just about singular person, it need at least 3 people IMO to be called line. I in general dislike when people refer to themselves as "liner", I get that it's easier to group up idols. But you can just say "I was born in 99". submitted by /u/Busy-Software-4212 [link] [comments]
