Hello! I saw an ad for this event but I don’t really know anyone in London who’d be interested, hoping Reddit might have a few people who might want to join me? I’m 27F and more of a 3rd gen fan but I do love a bit of the new stuff that’s out ☺️ DM me if you’re interested! submitted by /u/AdmirablePumpkin1729 [link] [comments]

Yujin’s comments about wanting to live abroad came across as both ignorant and dismissive, reflecting a broader mentality often found in South Korea, where many view Western countries—particularly white-majority or formerly white-majority nations—through rose-colored glasses, while simultaneously disparaging their own homeland Her statements also carried a classist undertone. She treated the idea of “cosplaying” as an ordinary person—working at a café, earning a modest income, and living without fame—as if it were some kind of playful, trivial fantasy. This perspective ignores the realities faced by many Korean immigrants, who historically endured grueling labor. Whether it was the stereotypical Korean dry cleaner or convenience store owner in American cities working 12 hours a day for 7 days a week with no vacations, or earlier Korean laborers cutting sugar canes in Hawaii, immigrant life was defined by sacrifice and hardship. Wealthier Koreans like Yujin, however, are ignorant of such proletarian immigrant experiences. The version of Korean immigrants who appear in films such as Falling Down (1993) or It Could Happen to You (1994) remain far removed from her privileged experience. Some might argue, “But she was just saying she doesn’t always want the celebrity life.” The problem is that if she genuinely wished to escape fame, she could simply step away from the entertainment industry and return to a quieter existence in a Korean city like Mokpo. After a few years nobody is gonna care she was formerly a idol. Instead, Yujin instead revealed a fantasy of being an anonymous Asian immigrant in a Western country, disregarding the harsher realities that come with such a life—uncertain immigration status, the risk of deportation under administrations like Trump’s, and the ongoing racism faced by Asians throughout many Western societies. What’s more, Yujin overlooks the substantial advantages that come with being a celebrity. Public figures often receive an outpouring of support in times of crisis. If Yujin’s career fell apart and she found herself destitute, her fans would likely rally to raise funds for her food, housing, and medical care. If she were to confront a serious illness like cancer, millions might offer prayers and financial contributions. By contrast, an “ordinary” immigrant—the exact life Yujin glamorizes—faces isolation and invisibility. Such individuals often struggle with language barriers, disconnection from their roots, lack of support networks, and widespread indifference from the broader society. For her to romanticize being a Korean immigrant is really disgusting to me. submitted by /u/jinusong [link] [comments]

Because Lara Raj is getting the queerbaiting allegations again, I'm here to remind you REAL PEOPLE CAN'T QUEER BAIT. I understand how comforting it much feel to see someone important represent your sexuality or be a part of your community...but pls remember YOU DON'T KNOW THEM. Just in case someone doesn't understand how harmful this is- Queerbait is a term used for FRICTIONAL media. It is used as a marketing technique where the creators hint at BUT DO NOT actually represent queer characters, romance or experiences. Accusing REAL PEOPLE of this is harmful. It forces them to come out just so their own community will be satisfied. We have seen again and again how actors, singers had to come out without their own free will. And when singers like Katseye members actually do come out on their own free will....some fans are weirdly obsessed with whom they have dated in past, currently or in the future. Almost like they need a Proof of their queerness 😒🔪 So no, RV, Katseye, Skz, Ateez, Twice, Svt, Zbo, Xlov....NONE are queerbaiting you all. If there's an idol you "ship" with someone but they end up dating someone from another gender YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO BE ANGRY. Maybe they are just comfortable with their friends in that way, maybe they are exploring themselves, maybe they are actually queer & are just being as open with their fans as possible. Let them be. (If one of them was extremely homophobic but still gives out "fan-ship" materials then that's another thing) Saw someone say "I stopped stanning her after finding out she's dating a man" THAT'S WEIRD‼️ YOU ARE WEIRD‼️ THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU OH MY GOD. (Sorry for being angry🕳️🚶🏻♀️. Anyways pls remember Queer is not limited to Gays/Lesbians. Bi, Trans & Aroace people exists. People who don't want to give themselves specific labels also feel comfortable using the term 'queer' to represent themselves. So stop giving them random Headcanons😭✋🏻 They are real people) submitted by /u/EenieMinnie8 [link] [comments]

Just saw a viral tweet on X that said: "no shade but what is it w the world being completely OBSESSED w everything that stemmed from kpop (katseye, kpop demon hunters) but they won’t give actual kpop a try ????😭" And honestly I'd love to hear your opinions on this statement. For me personally: I think most kpop stans themselves (especially a certain fandom respectfully) made people think being a fan of a kpop group is "cringe" or "weird". Their actions painted a bad image for the reputation of kpop. Language barrier is a huge issue. The US is the biggest music market in the world. Anything that blows up in the US means it's bound to get popular everywhere else. Kpop is NOT a big genre here whether kpop stans want to admit it or not. The average American who doesn't follow kpop cannot name any kpop groups except maybe BTS and/or BLACKPINK. Oversaturation of kpop groups. Yes, this can be an issue. There's so many kpop groups and more and more keep debuting every year. This is overwhelming for most people. These are my opinions on why the genre isn't that big locally and why most people won't give it a try. I'd love to hear what others think. submitted by /u/floraa5 [link] [comments]
