so I've noticed some people ignorant about cgi and attack artists who use it saying "they use ai!"... guys..... cgi is very old thing movies like MCU and every MV use it and its completely normal, even a greeb screen like.... you really thought she fall of a plane? or you really thought the dragon is really? ai is poor way to make a videos and it look weird and unreal and actually the artist dont have to be there while filming it, cgi is just edit while ai is complete use of ai while the artist doesn't have to be there lol, so educat yourself a bit submitted by /u/FullTea6995 [link] [comments]

From magnetic to tik tak I have to say as catchy as those songs were I kinda just disregarded them as the typical catchy kpop songs you’d hear. But this year with do the dance and jellyous the whole magical girl video game thing they have going on is sooo reminiscent of jpop for me and above all its fun! From their aesthetic to the sound I feel like they’re honing into that even more this year and I’m living for it submitted by /u/AdEmergency6619 [link] [comments]

I'm sorry but there's no way you can convince me Babymonster's hot sauce has more organic views on youtube than aespa's dirty work and ADP's Famous and... Whatever else it is they released (sorry I genuinely don't remember the title, just lyrics about a photoshoot). I know the girls are very famous, but the number of ads and/or bought views being used looks so uncanny and unreasonable next to other artists who are a lot more popular. I thought the same about izna as well because the like to view ratio is actually embarassing. How are you having 63 million views (izna's, 'IZNA') with not even 400k likes? For example, even Itzy's GWBG MV (that has like 40 million less views) has more likes. Not only that, but ads and/or bought views on instagram reels and shorts? Like what are they even helping 😭 (An example is that one Itzy reel from a few weeks ago with nearly 100 million). Actually, it makes me kind of get using paid views on MVs because more effort is put into those... I get people might disagree, I don't really know anyone's opinion on this. Just wanted to share a random thought :) submitted by /u/Gold_Meaning3688 [link] [comments]

Two different members of BTS, Two huge crowds, two different continents… what else can you say other than legendary First pic is from Jin’s sold out concert at Kyocera dome in Osaka and the second pic is the crowd for J-Hope’s performance at Lollapalooza Berlin submitted by /u/Wide-Cardiologist-15 [link] [comments]

G-Dragon has been spoiling all over his concerts that Big Bang will be making music again as a group by next year. However, to my knowledge, BB is currently Daesung, Taeyand and him. Though, during his last concert the fans were chanting BB comeback and he raised his 4 fingers. Kinda signaling TOP as well? I dont want to get my hopes up. I am a 2nd gen fan so I have been through all the scandals regarding TOP and Seungri (including the rest of the members). But! Can TOP really REALLY be included again in BB activities without much Korean scrutiny after what happened? Excluding his acting (Squid Games) ofc, he has not been active at all. What do you guys know for sure or think? submitted by /u/nikkei-tzu-2404 [link] [comments]

In a world that often demands speed, perfection, and silence in the face of struggle, BTS stands as a powerful reminder that vulnerability is strength, kindness is boldness, and music can be a lighthouse for millions. More than a K-pop group, BTS has become a global emotional support system. seven souls who have taught a generation how to feel deeply, live honestly, and love fiercely, including themselves. For most ARMY, BTS is not just about catchy beats or synchronized dance moves, though those are undeniably brilliant. Their impact runs much deeper through their lyrics, music videos, and even unscripted reality content, they’ve gently and powerfully redefined what it means to be a celebrity, an artist, and a leader in the modern world. When life becomes overwhelming, I turn to BTS for comfort. Their music has have themes that are often considered taboo in entertainment: depression, anxiety, burnout, self-hatred, generational pressure, and identity. Songs like “The Last” by Agust D (SUGA) , “Epiphany” by Jin, “Magic Shop”, and “Zero O’Clock” speak directly to those quietly struggling. Rather than hiding behind curated perfection, BTS chose to show their scars, and in doing so they helped fans feel less alone in theirs. They reflect on themselves. They ask questions like: “Who am I?”, “What’s my worth if I stop performing?”, “Can I still love myself even when I fail?” These questions made impact when people are expected to have it all figured out. BTS functions as a unit of seven equals. each member leads in their own way with empathy, humor, creativity, wisdom, or quiet strength. Jin teaches us to laugh at ourselves loving ourselves, J-Hope reminds us hope but also it's okay to not be cheerful all the time, SUGA speaks to the broken parts we try to hide (our shadows) and embrace it overcome it, Jimin embodies care and gentleness in elegant way, V celebrates artistic individuality also teaches us not to be afraid of being judged by other people, Jungkook inspires artistry, growth and effort, and RM leads with boldness honesty, intellect and sincerity. And they all together model what harmony, healthy masculinity, vulnerability, and unity can look like. They are proof that strength can come in tears, hugs laughter, and words. BTS changed the very definition of what it means to be an artist for the world in our generation. For them, it’s not just about breaking records or selling out stadiums (though they’ve done both repeatedly). It’s about impact. Their artistry is intentional, it's art with a purpose. with symbolism, psychology, literature, and social commentary. Their albums are not just collections of songs; they are narratives from The Most Beautiful Moment In Life series ( which explores youth and pain) to Map of the Soul ( inspired by Jungian psychology) and Be (born out of the isolation and grief of the COVID-19 pandemic.). EACH MV is rich with metaphor. EACH stage is a performance of emotion. EACH speech (such as their historic one at the UN) is a call to action: to speak yourself, to love yourself, to live fully. They never settle down for bare minimum. Perhaps one of the most revolutionary aspects of BTS is the way they treat their fans. We ARMY is not just an audience, it's like a family. We're not getting girlfriend-boyfriend treatment like in traditional Kpop idols. There’s mutual respect and love.( except very small toxic percentage we despise) They talk to ARMY like old friends, with sincerity. breaking the fourth wall and showing their most human sides: eating, hurting, laughing, playing games, crying, failing, being silly. Their reality shows, like Run BTS or Bon Voyage show us who they are off-stage, and it's there fans fall even more in love. Not with the idol, but with the person. BTS taught a generation that it’s okay to be soft in a hard world. They made self-love a mission, not a trend. They reminded millions that healing takes time and that our flaws don’t make us unworthy of love, they make us human. They said in their own words: “You gave me the best of me, so you’ll give you the best of you.” and they always work hard to give back. Their legacy measured in charts and trophies for sure but also in changed lives. They are my quiet comfort on sleepless nights, my loud cheerleaders when I feel down, the silent teachers guiding us back to ourselves. BTS didn’t just change music. They changed us. And we will never be the same, in the most beautiful way. submitted by /u/Pinkymelii666 [link] [comments]

I never really understood why it flopped in the first place, I think it’s a good song with a strong, catchy chorus. The only big flaw that I can see is the overuse of autotune and subpar production, but many other songs have been successful despite those same shortcomings. I think the song suits NMIXX quite well and could be a big hit for them, if re-recorded with better production. submitted by /u/Elegant_Fishing_7952 [link] [comments]
