ok so idk if this is misogyny, or im delusional, but i've been a boy group & girl group stan for a while, is it only me or gg get so much more nasty comments than bg? the most popular one i see is the "they hate each other / x is jealous of y" discourses in EVERY SINGLE comment section. i see vids fancams of bg and i don't even remember if i'd found any comment about their appearance or performance in general, (which is a good thing!) but once its a gg fancam, there's ppl comparing to other gg, ppl criticizing the singing, dance, outfit, whatever tf it might be. i started stanning katseye recently and theyre not even kpop, theyre a global group, which ik theyre somewhat under hybe, but its just genuinely so damn annoying. (btw ive seen this behavior w bp, twice, gidle, nmixx, and many other kpop gg, so its not only katseye) why can't people just enjoy things and have fun? it was never that serious or deep someone would post a funny moments or fancam, and there has to be angry people in the comments. it's getting too much honestly, then again i notice that i barely see any of that under boy groups and it just makes me think its straight up misogyny submitted by /u/yts_art [link] [comments]

An idol messes up (like at the W Korea event), people come to their defense saying essentially: yeah, what they did was wrong but it did not harm anyone so it's okay AND PEOPLE UPVOTE IT??? Like yeah, no one literally died of breast cancer because an idol didn't bring up breast cancer awareness once in their speech at a breast cancer awareness event... But that doesn't make it ok. If I steal the organs of a dead person, that is not ok just because nobody got hurt. What stupid logic. We need to call it out. submitted by /u/SnooOranges829 [link] [comments]

When Nomination Predictions Match Except for One Artist and It’s Not About The Numbers The 2025 MAMA Best Dance Performance (Male Solo) nominees were just revealed — and Ten, who consistently ranked 3rd for three months in every metric-based prediction since July, somehow didn’t make the final list. Meanwhile, other artists from the same company (Kai and Mark) ranked lower in those predictions — and yet Ten was the only one left out. Instead, another SM artist, Key, was added even though Ten’s Stunner outperformed Hunter in both numbers and choreography reception. I mean yay! Good for them but what happened to Ten? Okay, let’s talk facts: · Stunner had sustained organic performance — no viral gimmick, just consistent global traction that’s not due to belonging to a big boy group (WayV is barely mainstream kpop) and to strong promotion. · His solo drops always coincide with another NCT soloist’s promo cycle (this year Mark, last year Taeyong), yet Stunner still trended and inspired tons of dance covers on YouTube and TikTok — with many creators used the EP logo for their thumbnails. · His past releases (Nightwalker, Birthday) continue to get fresh covers years later showing long-term influence among dancers. (even if you look up YT for new Nightwalker cover within a month you won’t be disappointed. In contrast, Hunter had higher budget and promo support, but the public engagement on dance content and the actual global performance of the track favor Stunner much more with Hunter at 1.7m Spotify streams and Stunner at 83m. Even Ten’s dance performance for Stunner and all his other stuff were received well. Babyzoo, who choreographed Stunner (who interestingly also choreographed Hunter after) said it was more challenging than Bambola — and that piece (Bambola) according to him was only possible “because it’s Ten” so imagine how high the standard is for Stunner. But still, Ten made it looked so easy and effortless and expressed it much better than anyone else could. And then yeah, he called Ten the “best artist” despite the fact that he’s already worked with others in kpop and that Ten is not big enough to attract people who just want more popularity based on association. So now, forgive me if I wonder how someone who did well enough (3rd) in metrics for months, with positive critical reception and with dance community support, somehow vanished from the final nominations list. What’s this really about This isn’t really about one artist “deserving more.” It’s about how Ten, who happens to be a non-Korean soloists inside a big company (SM) is treated when it comes to visibility, credit, and recognition. Ten is arguably the most versatile performers in the industry — blending technique, expression, and artistry and even with The Kraze (not PR stuff) recently calling him “Chameleon of Kpop” — yet he’s repeatedly sidelined in contexts where his work objectively fits the criteria. It’s not even about winning Honestly, I don’t expect Ten to win against GD or J-Hope — that’s national-scale fame. But at the very least, a nomination would’ve perhaps allowed him to perform solo on that stage and show exactly what he brings to K-pop as an artist. That’s only what many of his fans can afford to hope for because we are not delulus and even though in our hearts Stunner is the real SOTY and Ten’s the best male solo artist of the year. I have been a supporting some kpop artists since 2nd gen and I don’t think Koreans are awful but it’s just frustrating to me how they only reward me as a fan when I support Korean artists but when I support a Thai kpop soloist, they will make it feel so ridiculous because it’s like they are never gonna let him shine as much as he should cuz he’s not one of them. And yes, being non-korean is the only thing he doesn’t have compared to all the five nominees. submitted by /u/Intelligent-Ad9582 [link] [comments]

I got downvoted to hell for saying this before because people couldn't admit an idol they like did something bad. An idol doing one bad thing does not make them a bad person, however, many idols did indeed do a bad thing at the W Korea event. If a celebrity attends a charity/fundraising event for a serious cause, there is an expectation that the celebrity contributes to the event in some capacity. Otherwise, they are just showing up to an event that was made for a very serious cause just to party and network... and that is rude. This is not a hate post or judging idols as a whole. It is ok to admit when an idol messes up. Also props to the idols who attended and did actually try to spread awareness! submitted by /u/SnooOranges829 [link] [comments]

I saw a post from some fans saying that W Korea is embarrassing itself! Because of the breast cancer thing among women! They didn't ask the idols questions about breast cancer and another all the idols in black not wearing pink! I've never seen anyone wearing black at breast cancer submitted by /u/ruanzito070 [link] [comments]

I don't worship the ground my faves walk on, I know that they are complex individuals that will make mistake after mistake and will on occasion make a mistake that upsets me. So it's weird that all too often I will see someone say "well you'd be okay with it if your fave did this" and it's like, no I wouldn't? If I'm upset at an idol or group or whatever for something, why would I all of a sudden be okay when my fave does it? I know some people do literally worship the group their faves walk on and defend them through thick and thin, even when the criticism is deserved. But not everyone does that, and some actually can criticise their faves. submitted by /u/sunflowersandpears [link] [comments]

I've seen the discourse and backlash around it, and let me just say, I understand where it's coming from. I too understand that it's shameful that only such a little amount of money has been raised so far when the event is visited by so many powerful celebrities, people with MONEY. But... this event has been a thing for years and years. Kpop celebrities have been visiting this event for years, and as a kpop fan since 2017, I don't recall it ever getting this much negative discourse. What's different? 3 BTS members were present this year. I don't know what it is with people this last year, but for some reason, they are absolutely digging, and I mean digging at things to critisize them for. And yes we can absolutely call them out, but there seems to be a lot of picking and choosing. I saw a comment that said something like 'at least Ryujin and Lia (correct me if I'm wrong and they weren't there) dressed modestly and they left early'? Like ok? They were still there I guess I could make an entire other post for this but I'm also just going to put this here, I think the amount of very clearly misogynistic remarks to the female celebrities wearing clothing that at most shows a little cleavage, is straigt up weird. "It's a breast cancer awareness event" well yes and these women have breasts. Seems like a very weird loophole people are trying to make there as an excuse to slutshame, just really gross behavior. submitted by /u/Due_Improvement_5699 [link] [comments]

I decided to this because I have a lot of biases (64>.<) and bias wreckers (58>.<)!!! \Note: pls comment only a number so others can participate too, if you comment more than one number- I'll just reply the first number you commented!* And some of the groups are not K-Pop btw:) submitted by /u/Specific_Cake_5410 [link] [comments]

PLEASE SEE THE WHOLE IMAGE! honestly who do these people think they are,i don't see your favs performing at VS?? Even if " she" ( ifykyk)did perform, that doesn't give you the right to hate on a SICK person submitted by /u/yejioooo [link] [comments]

I am a blink, have been for a long time. I have heard so many rumors of pinks in early days, so many ships, most of which were ofcourse just with st*pid 'evidence' i.e. liskook. Taennie was also like that in the bigenning with the 'evidence' being V singing Jennie's part in award show or exchanging a glance accidently (or not?), AND the photoshopped pics. From then on I just considered all rumors as they are, just rumors. When Jennie and Tae walking in Paris video surfaced I did not know what to think of it. While it was widely dismissed as cosplaying, Jennie posted a pic of herself in the same outfit, it was baffaling. It could have been her 'fuck u' ; " Yes, we are dating", or "I was with out my friends". Without a statement, I just assumed it was again some bullshit like it was when they were spotted in a love hotel or something and it was apparently unture. I don't even know anymore what to beleive what not. But there was some gala that Jisoo, Tae and Rosie attended, and Jisoo and Tae were spotted talking animatedly confirming that they are in fact on good terms, I won't use the word friends because Jisoo said a girl and guy can not 'just' be friends, so she is not 'friends' with him. I recently joined Kpop sub reddits, and I came across so many post that had many redditers commenting on Taennie being the truest unconfirmed relationship. submitted by /u/KeyJellyfish4355 [link] [comments]
