Tell me what your fandom subreddit does when they're online (look at pictures for example)

The discussion of who paved the way in kpop has been constant, due to fans of other artists denying a group's impact to kpop and their success. Mainly antis of BTS. Honestly, the only reason I can think of why kpop fans keep trying to downplay BTS is because of toxic armies, that constantly bring up BTS as the reason why xxx group has the success they have, and at the same time, diminish the group's hard work and talent, the main target being hybe groups. With comments like "BTS paved the way for your idol." it's easy to accumulate hate towards the fandom and the group itself, even if it's misdirected. In my opinion, BTS is the main contributor to kpop's current popularity, but other groups, such as Bigbang, SNSD, Twice, etc. all have played vital roles in kpop. It's ironic when you spam comment sections with "BTS paved the way." yet get mad when groups actually walk the way. submitted by /u/Full-Amoeba5171 [link] [comments]

Hello! I'm located in central NJ, I'm looking to learn Kpop choreo with the intention of doing Random Dance Play (someday). I have no idea where to get started. Where do you learn choreography? Are there classes? Do you have any youtube channels you recommend? How do I know what songs are likely to come up? Thank you in advance 🙏 submitted by /u/Illustrious_Hat_9057 [link] [comments]

DISCLAIMER! before anyone harrasses me, this is a speculation, and I have provided proof for discussion In 2019 joo ruju lim account (Jennie's rumored burner account) went viral. but then people were saying that there was not enough proof to think that it’s Jennie. I knew about then before 2020 but I always thought it was fake and didn’t really care, someone mentioned it again a few days before and I remembered the account and did some research…also remember the pic where she says she's auditioning ? In the blackpink documentry,Jennie says THE EXACT WORDS said in that post/tweet. And guess what? In the video, it says the audition was in 2010. Same year as the post, she also mentioned that she's back home. Jennie mentions that "she got back" in the clip from the documentry. Also, Jennie now after debut, has a house in the US, specifically LA like mentioned in one of these posts Honestly at first I thought it was fake. But now I'm thinking it might be her account...what do you think? submitted by /u/tuesunretard [link] [comments]

I'm tired of the herd mentality winning. The defamation against Min Heejin is so low and performative that it has genuinely triggered social anxiety in me as a creative. The fear that any artistic choice I make can be completely distorted by narratives pushed by an audience eager to find a new villain to cancel, armed with their Wikipedia-level knowledge. ALL the speculations about Min Heejin being a pedophile come from a single poisoned seed. But once the soil is contaminated, everything that grows in it is tainted. Every idol who has worked with her has spoken positively of her,Taemin, for instance, who accepted awards in her name (before the chaos with HYBE, MHJ was always reluctant to be in the spotlight), Yeri’s support was twisted by the public because of an emoji. Krystal openly expressed her affection for MHJ several times in various interviews, even celebrating her birthday with her, as several photos show. Now let’s talk about the accusations: the so-called "romanticization of pedophilia" was quickly turned into “she is a pedophile.” But none of these claims hold up. Min Heejin is 45 yo. Her youth was in the 80s and 90s. The sensationalized reaction to a Brooke Shields photo was deeply malicious, just like the outrage over certain artworks. It’s twisted and unhealthy to be incapable of separating imagery from history. Do you research the historical context of every image you find on Pinterest? Moodboards are a thing of aesthetics. The vintage girlhood aesthetic represents freshness, youthfulness,a type of beauty that can be sexualized, but that depends on the viewer’s gaze. Lolita lying under a water spray is just a girl on the grass, portrayed by a beautiful use of colors & light, as itself it's just a beautiful and innocent view but the disturbing tone comes from the director’s pov that has to convey the eye of the male lead, not from the subject herself. Min Heejin is an aesthete being crucified by the 2.0 bigotry of our times, where people mask ignorance with a superficial intellectualism that lacks real culture, debate, and study, emotional outrage with no sense of consequence. And when someone takes their own life because of false accusations - oh, the internet - YOU are the internet. Some people say, “Better safe than sorry.” But what if your way of “being safe” is the death of somebody? your cure is the poison. Take Cookie, for example. That controversy exposed the close-mindedness of the international market, which seems to forget it's consuming a Korean product and that globalization has not flattened culture. “But the lyricists speak English” yes, two Swedish writers and one Korean. Of course they’d need to understand American slang...this american ethnocentrism is so toxic, why must everything be read through the American lens? Min Heejin wanted to build a transparent and ethical environment with ADOR. Other companies would’ve gone silent or posted a vague Instagram statement. ADOR published full-length documents. But once people have nailed you to the cross, it's uncomfortable for them to do a step back. Nobody want to feel like a culprit or a stupid, so it's always all in. Moreover, official planning documents about NewJeans’ debut concept confirm that the group was never directed toward questionable themes or markets. Quite the opposite. The reality is that Min Heejin is being condemned for having a taste for a nostalgic, vintage youthfulness, (like many others giver the success of her work) something she herself lived through. And everything is twisted to paint her as some kind of deviant. Art will always be controversial, our society is not a monolit, but controversial does not mean guilty. Unlike other CEOs, there isn’t a single accusation she has refused to respond to. That’s the point: she has always strived for transparency. The HYBE case is proof of this. The first 2024 press conference, with full English subtitles available on Tikkitokki’s YouTube channel, is something a guilty person could never have pulled off. No delays, no prep time, just a raw, immediate press conference the day after the audit. People mocked her flood of words and emotion, gosh a human being human, but what they really revealed was moral integrity and a powerful sense of justice, not just for herself but for her entire team. She privately raised concerns to HYBE (a fact) shared by choreographers and NewJeans' parents, but the public reduced her leadership and care to egotistical drama. And speaking of parents, so much talk about minors and protection, yet when a CEO actually builds open, ongoing relationships with both idols and their families, it's suddenly called grooming? “If she were a man” but she’s not. Creatives, idols, and families have shown her their full support. Yet people on the outside arrogantly claim to know better, accusing her of brainwashing simply because every new piece of information continues to prove that Min Heejin is not the monster your justice-fueled entertainment fantasies demand. She’s a woman highly skilled at her craft, trying to build a cleaner system rooted in organic growth, high-level creativity, and the treatment of idols as human beings—respected, heard, and supported. Because listening to them means valuing their vision, not treating them like dolls to be rebranded every three months with a new concept. PLEASE, stop being swayed by the noise. Stay lucid. Be vocal. Let’s bring the narrative back to fairness and reality. The level of defamation here is inhumane. We don’t know her personally and even if we did, it wouldn’t change the core truth: people are mutable beings. She could one day become the next Neil Gaiman, just like anyone else could, but this possibility does not stop our support for the people around us who we consider valuable. We must stay grounded in reality, in context, and in fairness. Because this kind of airy condemnation is a dangerous game, a fire anyone could one day throw at us regardless of fairness. Right now, Min Heejin public reputation journey feels like a Black Mirror episode. So ask yourself, what is your stand and what kind of print are you living online? are you conscious of its consequence? If she will ever do something despicable I'll drop my support in 1 second, but until that moment I'm seeing a valuable creator that could revive a toxic industry being treated unfairly beyond measure and I wonder, if the internet is chewing her like this, distorting reality, who is safe? I'll attach a MHJ lecture excerpt. It's hard to change the mind of a polarized mob...before commenting, take a moment to reflect. https://preview.redd.it/a18wk3gj01ef1.jpg?width=1408&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec40a54698312c34f00ea790649a0a284106db25 submitted by /u/VastEffective112 [link] [comments]

Why is there so much discourse about Korean beauty standards and who is the best looking idol among fans? Sometimes I feel it’s mainly gg fans but honestly the obsession with the most handsome faces list is also a huge part of this. Talent and fun performances>visuals and this shouldn’t be a controversial take. It also continues to enforce pretty privilege and often works to normalize insane diets. I do wish there were more non conventionally attractive idols, they tend to be more fun and more talented submitted by /u/Greedy_Fault_4582 [link] [comments]

I don't listen to kpop actually, but she does, so I made this for her (with the help of our mutual friend who told me what band she likes and all that), I'll give it to her next time we meet. I had to cramp the girls together a little so they fit into the frame I bought, lol. I really hope she'll like it.<3 Just thought I'd share! submitted by /u/seurien [link] [comments]

Rules: 1. each one has to be a different gen, precisely the one that’s above it or it restarts. Ex… if you pick 3rd gen the first day then the second day has to be 4th gen and after that it can be whatever other gen besides another 4th the day after, if it’s 5th gen the first day then it resets to 3rd gen!! It’s long but it’s simple. Also there can be the same group multiple times just not above 3 times… Lastly the group member MUST be 3rd gen or above or else I will not even look at it, the idol with the most comments I’ll pick. if its a tie I’ll put both but if its a 3 way or more tie then I’ll decide!! 3 simple rules is all… this is my first time doing one of these so I hope it doesn’t get taken down!! Also don’t mind the fonts, I did it in CapCut, today we MUST HAVE 5th gen, I will see who doesn’t care to read descriptions guys…. no matter how many times you say a 3rd or 4th gen I’ll just skip it… follow the rules…. also it’s NOT only girl groups! I wanted to see some boys too! please vote for boys later on going. we haven’t had any 5th gen so… submitted by /u/Happy-Flight-4810 [link] [comments]
