There's no such thing as ''naturally extremely underweight''. If you told people that some people are naturally mordibly obese, they wouldn't believe it so why do they delude themselves when it comes to their oppas and unnies? It's pretty damn coincidental that everyone in the korean entertainment industry just happens to be ''naturally skinny''. It's shocking how unhinged people prove to be when they call Rosé the girl with the ''best body in kpop''. SJW ''feminists'' promoting eating disorders kek.

She was really cute and happy here. This reminds me of BamBam not wanting to look at his old pictures because of how dark he looked (and being made fun of JR/Jinyoung for being dark too) and Sorn from CLC going from looking like this Lisa picture to looking like a wide-eyed ghost. K-pop's beauty standards are so upsetting and bizarre, especially when you see how much prettier and normal looking some Asian celebs are outside of Korea. Like, compare BTS or some other kpop male idols to some top hot male actors in Japan. Except for some exceptions, the former usually look like botoxed cyborgs and the latter often actually look like handsome human beings.

He seems the most invested in BTS's current success rn so maybe their current situation has him feeling more confident and desperate for attention (esp with all the attention he's been getting from American celebs lately) and his attention whore ways has skyrocketed.

The tweet thread is deleted now but someone that worked at the Soldier Field stadium tour date said Bighit banned all the trained female staff from working 15 minutes before the start of the show because of a 'no females allowed backstage policy.' This includes the showrunner with 10 years plus experience (who had worked with Beyonce, etc) because she was a female. So she had to be radio-ing in and organizing from off set or something. It apparently was total chaos.

the original tweet thread that was deleted but here's what was said:

https://twitter.com/btstarot/status/1127567011746320385

If this is true bighit must believe every female that comes into contact with bts has secret designs to try to get into their pants regardless of their work, station in life/profession/culture etc.

This is not about bts but there were speculations that some female managers were obsessive fans.

This is fucked but I also kind of…get it, in a way?

Obviously I don’t know the company’s reasoning but it seems like they’re trying to prevent any/all potential scandals aka protecting their investment. BTS seems incredibly controlled in that way and that might be why we haven’t heard any real scandals involving women (yet). Also, they can’t control or threaten or do invasive background checks the same way they can with Korean nationals.

Sounds like BigHit has a lot of paranoia after the GLaM incident, too.

There were definitely female staff members in that burn the stage movie. So this probably applied only to concerts outside Korea, if it's real.

First of all, where are you seeing a Dispatch couple announcement? I can't find anything about it, so link please.

Second, not sure how many of you are new to kpop but dating scandals have been super tame for like the past few years. Kai and Jennie were probably the most scandalous but there was literally just a pic of them walking together? At least when Baekhyun and Taeyeon were exposed, Dispatch had a pic of Taeyeon noona kissing Exo-Ls precious oppa in her Mercedes. Nothing can compare to way back then when Exo-Ls were so deluded and convinced that Taeyeon was evil and manipulating poor Baek, and that Taeyeon was a hoe who had dated sooo many idols in SM so Baekhyun was just a pawn.

So yeah, not expecting much from this. If anything, it'll probably be a 2nd gen idol that is washed up and dating some chaebol/actor/athlete, or an unheard of 3rd gen idol who isn't even known. Dispatch loves to exaggerate shit like "it's a TOP idol" when and when it's revealed it's like…Got7 or Momoland, lmao.

Not sure how many of you all watch PD X 101 but the voting = ranking shit is so annoying. Clearly the producers of this show aren't dividing screen time equally and they have their favorites for sure. I feel bad personally for people like Choi Soohwan who's super talented and deserves to be in the final lineup, but is already ranked #56 despite being impressive to the judges and being in A group.

Theoretically speaking, if you were to go on this show, it doesn't even matter to be talented to debut in the final lineup. All you need is a sob story and some charm, and some favoritism from the producers of the show. Bonus points if you're good looking. Best example is the slope-shouldered Kim Mingyu (pic related) who is so utterly talentless but looks like a poor man's Cha Eunwoo.

Comments on the show are shaming this season for being devoid of "visuals" but this is a show that is supposed to be about singing and dancing. It'd make far more sense to put the highest ranked in talent in the final group and to create a supergroup similar to a 10-member TVXQ.

I never said that PD48 groups are below debuted 3rd gen groups, but they definitely have the well-rounded talent within at least 5 guys to form a supergroup like TVXQ. The issue is though, those guys won't fit the beauty standards and will be forgotten about. But honestly TVXQ aside from Yunho and post-PS Changmin and Jaejoong, are kind of ugly/average yet they're still remembered as legends.
>>31295
I hate that I'm kind of becoming a fan of the poor kid. His story is actually kind of inspiring yet he didn't get plastic surgery before going on the show like Cha Junho (pic), who on the other hand, was a total eyesore but now 'passes' as a "visual" and is ranked not too low below #10 since he looks like Infinite L sans a few chromosomes. The weird thing is that Cha Junho is still ranked highly despite his "before" pictures getting leaked, and he's a confirmed uggo so I'm not sure what people are seeing in him as he's useless too.

Probably misremembering, but the way royalties are distributed to foreign idols (or foreigners in the music industry) is done on a country to country basis, and certain countries (including Thailand) will acknowledge one revenue of royalties but not another, and failure of a country to negotiate royalty agreements for its own idols fucks their pay over. CLC’s Sorn (another Thai idol) made a video about it a while back. She mentions another foreign CLC member who is impacted by the same issue.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this is in effect to purposely screw over foreigners in the music industry, and is probably one of the many mechanisms in place to do that.

Many foreign idols do get scouted by Korean companies though. Like all these auditions in different countries aren't there just to find Korean talent, it's to find foreign talent too. And companies use the idols to gather fans in different countries as they cannot sustain themselves through Korean fans alone. Look at any YouTube comment section of a group with any Thai member for example, all the comments will be about them.

Some are also k-pop fans themselves

Companies exploit that fanbase while paying dust to the actual foreign idol. Cheng Xiao from WJSN (to use them as an example again) has zero lines in some of their songs, but they have no qualms in farming her out to variety to show off her backflips. The8 for Seventeen and Amber from f(x) got put on a show (can't remember the name) that got literal Korean kids to "teach" them how to speak Korean and treated them like they were stupid as if they couldn't speak Korean already.

Foreign idols go through so much more shit then the Korean members that I don't blame any of them for leaving or wanting to have a career in their homeland too.

It wouldn't bother me so much if people took the kpopalypse approach (one of the very few things I agree with him on) and said they don't care about live vocals but just how something sounds on a record. But so many kpoppies try to pretend people like Rosé or Jimin are master vocalists, which is hilariously pathetic. I get the distinct feeling if they weren't in k-pop they would be dragged by these same people.

And then there are groups like ITZY where all the vocal talent is bizarrely located in the three non-vocalists. I*ZONE's lack of talent really gets me because they were picked from a fucking audition show. How come their vocals are much shittier than GFRIEND and CLC?

No. 31592

>>31591
Most of IZONE were picked for looks. Including Sakura. She was guaranteed final lineup from the start but can barley hold a tune, and yet they shafted the Japanese girls who could actually sing in her favor, mnet had her rigged from the start but they gave squeaky pedobait number 1 instead of her for some reason.

This made me remember when Kai from Exo "bullied" that girl from Gfriend by saying her dance is too easy.
While girlgroups have to deal with gross fans and can't say one thing without getting into a scandal, talentwise the bar for them couldn't be any lower. You have 10+ girls on a stage and literally all they do is walk around, move their arms a bit and mumble something. Absolutely laughable.

I mean I think some groups have legitimately strong friendships usually due to suffering together since a young age. Like Seventeen who were all shoved into a dorm together when some of them were like 9 years old.

I don't get it tbh. It's obvious that even now that SNSD is disbanded (because yes they are), the members who left SM still play up ''uwu i'm still a member of SNSD'' to further their own career goals. Sooyoung and Seohyun are not talented actresses and would have never become such if they hadn't been part of the SNSD brand SM created for them.

No one remembers the "Taengsic" ship that was like…non-existent? I think only like 14 people had their badge on OH when SONEs were everywhere, because Taeyeon and Jessica literally had like no fan service moments at all, and the pictures they did have together were so fake. Then the Taengsic shippers all hid them when Jessica's departure came out. I remember the stories about the formation of TTS initially including Jessica but because Taeyeon didn't get along with Jessica, they put Seohyun in the sub-unit instead. I remember also the gifs of Sunny looking sad/pissed off every time she'd promote post-OT9, and all the gossip that she was still friends with Jessica and was miserable without her.

I don't think much of it is true but it makes me so nostalgic to remember that it was always Taeyeon (and Tiffany as Taeyeon's own Gretchen Weiners) vs Jessica. That's just how everyone saw it though.

The biggest and most obvious case of gg beef was Taeyeon vs Jessica. Youtube alone has so many gems but anyone who kept up with the group could easily see that Jessica was slowly being iced out. Jessica was supposed to be in TTS, which was supposed to be TTJ (which makes sense since the subunit was supposed to be about the popular vocalists and Jessica was far more popular than Tiffany and her voice more distinct) but she got booted for Seoyeon because of Taeyeon. I also heard Jessica was jealous towards any one in the group who got close to her guy friends, like 2pm's Taecyeon and cat fights happened after that. Their last KCON before Jessica got booted you could cut the tension with a knife.

It always makes me wonder what's really going on in this big groups. Like in T-ara Hwayoung's sister threatened to cut up the face of one of the new additions, Areum. THe only difference between T-ara and other ggs is that they got caught by putting their own business on twitter, which is probably why companies control group accounts now. But I can imagine there being some jealousy and sloppy shit. Like in 2nd gen, people spilled that idols would switch partners between the groups (like a 2pm member banging a GG member, then breaking up and banging another GG member while she cheats on him with another 2pm member). Messy shit like that.

Tldr, massive amounts of drama follow these kpop groups and bullying is also probably pretty common.

>>31765


In the older days, groups fought hard to be as good as they could be because they knew if they fucked up and didn't succeed they and their families weren't eating. Didn't Yunho sleep in train stations before he debuted in TVXQ? It's no wonder then new idols perform and sound like shit on stage. There's no desperation since they could quit today and just go be insta models and jet set across the world on mommy's dime.

First all, start integrating into board culture because being condescending towards other users never gets you far. Second of all, you are immensely mistaken. Anons never take offense at outfits being ''slutty'' but at how hidden in plain sight the oversexualization of kpop is. Everything and by that I mean everything is supposed to convey sexiness. So we are in a context where extremely young girls (like Wonyoung, 14 and Somi who performed in bdsm gear aged 15) given clothes and performances meant to arouse their male audience to give their companies money. Some of these girls are so young and/or sheltered, they may not even realize how creepy their whole business is. Meanwhile hip hop ''artists'' are open about the sexual nature of their work and most female hiphop ones like Jessi are assertive and proud about their body. Indeed, it is unlikely that someone watches Jessi's music videos because he/she doesn't have access to child porn. Meanwhile you can judge for yourself in the related video.

She's a wealthy (seriously if she didn't have money she would never have even made it into the YG or probably Korea), untalented, plain af Thai girl (there are tons of absolutely gorgeous Thai women and she isn't one of them) who isn't that attractive even after a nosejob, eyejob, skin lightening, and god knows what else.

to emphasize the "cutesy" concept; not all of them actually really should sing that high, it probably strained their voice to do it. if you go back and watch sixteen you'll see that Momo has a naturally lower tone than the pedobait voice that JYP makes her sing in.

I haven't listened to this yet but I just wanted to say that pretty much all Korean singing shows probably use pitch correction and other methods to make the singers sound flawless. They probably edit it too afterwards before airing it.

That's a good point. I've actually suspected that since I saw Ailee sing a Whitney song and something about it sounded too perfect and artificial.

Like that Kangnam trash that said this on some show and after a few months crying over this on tv he finally said his balance is good now. And he bought an entire building in Seoul. Then he stopped his begging.
There was another (ex-?)member of an older female group recently that is playing the same card.

Oh yes the ones nearing their 30s/30+ should def be given a slap. I mean idols have such a short career span realistically, so they should be putting multiple eggs in multiple baskets.

I feel like the BTS hype only began in the first place because some executive noticed the hole in the western boyband market after 1D split and started shoving them into talk shows. They weren't even that popular compared to other idols.

Some younger group'll probably rush in to fill that gap once enlistment happens because the pattern's clear.

Of course they all look sad. Jesus Christ, it’s mandatory military service.
Jin is regurgitating a stock answer that Korean men have been fed since they were boys, and if there’s any anger with JK, it’s probably because his entire life since he was 13 is about to change and the people he’s grown most attached to are going to leave him behind, unwillingly.
Stop trying to attribute any perceived anger to arrogance and entitlement. You keep coming back here to reeee about him and it’s both obnoxious and incredibly obvious that you have some kind of damage.

So as the topic is on military service, do you really think BTS will serve? I'm almost 100% sure they will be exempt. They probably know it as well and that's why they were even more pissed in the interview above.
I'm just wondering how they excuse them from serving.

No. 32721

why would you think they will be exempt? this was discussed multiple times and the conclusion was always that not enlisitng would be social suicide in korea, even in an event of offered exemption. are you sure youre not just grasping at straws for them not to leave?

It's already being accepted by the gp and ofc, their fans. I'm just waiting for another fake win in Amrica of some sort and their exemption will be official.
I'm sure they'll try to oppose the decision to show how "ready" they to go when the duty calls.

There is no fucking way they won't enlist. The loss of face would be ridiculous. Korea has basically mass-designated them 'their' band like the Beatles were for bongs. Even ilbe (Korean equivalent of 4chan /pol/, kpop generals and /r9k/ that has a huge feud with them that spilled over into BTS dissing the site and constantly calls one of them subhuman for being from Jeolla) blows smoke up their ass about how they're 'Korea's group'.

Not that anon but it's probably because if she called out a black koreaboo for being fat then there is a chance ppl would go reee racism so it's safer to state that it had nothing to do with ethnicity cause she's black too. It happens many times with calling out SEA you know.

Yaoi is popular among some lesbians and I guess BTS fits that 'nonthreatening flower boy uwu' thing aesthetically so they project the yaois onto it is my guess.

Not a blink so don't come for me guys but I actually do think that the majority of US celebrities and all who claim to like bp actually somewhat enjoy their music(unlike bts' music)cause it's edm and it's heavily hip-hop influenced, and they can play that badass, independent-woman kinda girl group which sells. And thus is sad cause I wanna see yg finally fall.

i know it's been went over many times already but i really don't understand how their fans look at blackpink and bts and genuinely think 2 members of the same group are dating. like i watch some of their interviews and shit and neither blackpink or bts seem to have any kind of romantic thing going on with their bandmates, even their "gay" interactions are obvious fanservice, they're all straight as fuck. like jenlisa or vkook being real makes no sense. am i not able to see what their fans see or something?

She requested that her fans stop buying billboards and subway ads for her birthday (which is honestly such a weird thing to do anyways, if fans of Niall from 1D bought a billboard for his birthday, people would would be like wtf why) so we can assume she wants to be out of the public eye.

I really didn't get it either until I became a little more familiar with them.
To me, she stood out by default by being the only member to consistently have short blonde hair. She also pandered a lot to male fans during performances and always seemed to do more than the others (gif as an example).
It also helped that she had like 70% of the songs for herself.

I genuinely hope Seungri gets beat up in the military. Knowing Korean men though, many of them would probably give him their congratulations for not only abusing women but also getting away with it too.

I doubt it. Loads of this prostitution culture comes from the military because South Korea opened up legal brothels for US servicemen and it spiralled down into regular conscription and became a feature of national service

On the other hand Seungri was an older man abusing young women. That's a huge traditional taboo in Korea, men like this are called thieves and not seen in a good light at all. I've never heard of older male and young female being an official taboo in other countries. The newer trashier generations and k-cels discard this taboo though

Yeah. I guess the group's concept was daddy's princess or whatever. Kyulkyung and Rena stood out to me looks wise, but they look quite womanly and genteel and do not really fit into a 'cute' group.

None of them were really child-like enough (facially or otherwise) to fit into that pedobait thing that TWICE embodies or even the lite form of it that APINK or GFRIEND embodies. Then Pledis constant mismanagement and Kyla's weight and brother scandals threw it all into the garbage

They would've been better off with an elegant concept (like KARA) or womanly concept (like SPICA) with Pinky and Rena plus a strong vocalist and unique rapper which was desperately needed to balance everything

I don't think it was solely her fault. Xiyeon had some kind of injury. The other members were apologizing to fans over not having vlives, there was probably more going on behind the scenes (perhaps both before and after Kyla left).

Kyla implies in her Instagram post about the disbandment after a commentator blames her that she wants to spill the tea on the company. Imagine being these girls and training for 5+ years, longer than the average trainee period, particularly for Kyla and Xiyeon, who were with the company 9 and 11 years respectively- to only debut for 2 years. With how many members there are I imagine at least one of them who's fed up with Pledis is going to spill behind the scenes tea.

Unpopular opinion: he didn't look that much better before, he was just unattractive in a different, less disturbing way. Pre plastic monster J-hope was better looking than him.

not sure what they were trying to go for with this yuta person. bolting a huge ass weirdly vertical chin implant on a compact face with an already kinda narrow jaw just makes it look 328959x worse. he looks like a banana. SM's butchers are literally retarded and make people look like utter freaks. even YG and JYP have better surgeons

still nowhere near as horrific as namjoo or even sinb though. chin implants can be taken out

But they're implying svt has only recently began to "self-produce". I have no clue where they got that idea from.

to be honest I like svt for their live performances and Getting Closer was a banger, but they desperately need to delete Woozi from their group or at least quit the self producing meme.

They can improve all they want but this is just their limit. They're simply not a well-put group because of so many reasons, the biggest being that they don't have proper singers, in fact, 3 of the so-called "vocals" sound absolutely horrible.
They didn't give this group much thought when they created it, and it shows. I'm sure their creepy CEO would've prevented some members' debuts if he knew they'd blew up like that.

i think its mainly because its only us noticing her and Lisa are fucked up and BP are the second biggest group in kpop. blinks are one of the most delusional fanbases. even public anachans like JinE and AOA Jimin take fucking years to be recognized by normies as disordered. i posted the IU thing but i know she can dodge a lot of scrutiny because she uses the pseudo-feminist pseudo-intellectual crap

>>33191
i'm assuming its because it was SISTAR's marketing for them to badd ghurllz (therefore giving them armor). also, T-ARA's 'scandal' was manufactured by i-fans at a point when domestic sales were collapsing and their agency handled the situation badly and threw them to the dogs. now SISTAR are all approaching 30 and the public taste for these things changed.

while i was a fan i never understood how people could conceptualize virtually anything about SISTAR as 'feminist'. nearly all their songs are about being a lap dog for men. k-sjws are a special type of retarded

idk about knetizens, but from a westerner standpoint who viewed mostly western kpop media, sistar was liked because hyolyn and bora had darker skin and embraced a ~sexy image~ in spite of it, which is kinda a racist way of thinking in my opinion

Basically that´s why Jimin is crying every concert. Because the fans can feel special and moved by all the emotion and what they mean to him.
Let´s be real here, BTS are playing the game well and better than any other boyband before and propably after them.
Is this necessarily bad? Nah, boyband are boybands after all.

Rose never 'promoted' being an anachan. You're dumb if you think every eating disordered idol would encourage others to develop an eating disorder. Just because she appears in public with her toothpick legs showing doesn't mean that she's blatantly encouraging her fans to starve themselves. And I hate BlackPink but let's not pick on someone who is clearly struggling with a severe mental illness. If anything, her weight is a cry for help, but as we saw with Bom's plastic surgery addiction, YG isn't going to do shit and someone needs to actually intervene.

Afaik Rose hasn't even released an official "diet" that she follows like some other girl groups have.

This video I attached is what an idol 'promoting' an eating disorder looks like. If you want to see an idol that actually endorses horrible diets and suffers from extreme self-esteem problems then look no further than Luna's YT channel.

>>33184
Again with making people with eating disorders out to be aggressors… you realize that these labels and Korean culture look down upon women who are even in the average BMI category. How are these women not supposed to feel pressure to diet? Just because some fans are too dumb and take their starvation diets as the gospel doesn't mean that they're directly endorsing these diets unless they explicitly say that they recommend them. Most celebrity diets usually have the celebrity saying "I get to binge once the promotion is over," and no, it isn't healthy but at least these celebrities are admitting that these diets are not sustainable and many of them are clearly in need of treatment (Wendy for instance).

Its been discussed many times that for some weird reason kpop fans believe that people with the most obvious eating disorders constantly gorge themselves. I can remember back when SNSD was relevant they did this with Sooyoung and it was so bizarre to me.
Just google shikshin. That was her nickname because they cultivated this weird obsessive idea that even though Sooyoung was practically skelly, that she ate ALL the time nonstop. Its a weird cope mechanism or something. I think its done on purpose. Meanwhile idols that arent as skinny get chastized for eating anything other than a sweet potato and tomatoes.

The fact that she has shown that she wants to move back to china and have a career there instead.
Not only because its literally her own home country, but also because theres more of a profit in acting and modeling and singing in china than there is in korea now? Why tf would she want to stay in a practically dead group, in a shitty company that mistreats the idols and clearly doesnt care about anything even their biggest groups? Not to mention the issues with China-SK relations. And shes already rich as fuck. Most idols that "take a break" from kpop groups only stay under contract with technicalities to save face with psycho fans who think if an idol leaves, especially to go to another country, they're a "traitor" before cutting ties completely once the contract is officially up. Plus this is fx we are talking about. Nobody in fx cares about the group as a whole anymore except Luna and thats just because shes desperate and overcompensating for the fact that no one likes her outside of that core fx fanbase. Even Amber has managed to get a life outside of the group and country. Krystal and Amber care about Luna Im sure. Thats why they showed up at her performance. But fans are being ridiculous and grasping for anything at all to convince themselves that fx is going to be a thing again. Especially with Victoria and/or Sulli, who have basically nothing to do with that stuff anymore and clearly prefer acting.

Yesterday I read comments about Laboum's Yulhee and jesus, nothing but people who defend her. For whose who don't know, she got pregnant and then left her group.
All the comments are from backwards SEA writing bullshit like "young girl being in love and starting family is wonderful!" "you hate babies?! she's sooo mature for not aborting" etc, while koreans and normal fans just pointed out that she broke a contract and was just a teen - which is definitely less than ideal, especially considering that according to herself the father isn't really helping her with the baby.

I know this is beating an old horse, but there's probably nothing that I hate more about kpop than bts whining about how hard they supposedly work.

her behavior was so idiotic. having the baby wasn't a terrible thing to do (but was definitely irresponsible and sad considering the couple seems kinda miserable) but she doesn't seem very sorry for how her mistakes hurt people and she should be called out. nothing wrong with having a baby, but at least be mature about it.

Do you expect idols to just not have sex lol? You do realize almost all idols ARE in fact sexually active? Even the younger ones. And the reason there arent pregnancies is because most of the females are put on birth control when they debut? Even then, accidents probably happen and there have probably been some abortions. Possibly even forced ones due to idol company culture and societal pressure. Not to mention, where is your anger directed towards male idols that are just as sexually active and probably only became an idol so they could, in fact, fuck female idols? The way you're wording your argument is the problem. You seem real upset that female idols have sex and pregnancy is a result of that action. Not as much about if she lied or whatever happened after, which is an understandable point and criticism is warranted.

There have been rumors, particularly surrounding Hyuna having an abortion after sleeping with a male idol/mc or something. Cant remember who it was. Male idols only get sex scandals if they are caught visiting prostitutes or hanging out with non idol females, such as crew memebers and makeup artists or celebs from other countries etc. And even then its brushed under the rug eventually. They can fuck any idol they want with little to no controversy. Eunhyuk fucked IU and she uploaded pics after and he got like…no shit whatsoever from fans. All the hatred was towards her. We see what happened with Hara as well. Male idols have probably impregnated girls, but you wont hear anything unless the girl has the baby. And even then, as in the case with Yulhee, the girl will face all the hatred and anger and the male escapes relatively unscathed.

She didnt get kicked out of wonder girls. The original rumor is that she had an abortion and had complications that required hospital time(hence her excuse of chronic gastroenteritis, which is also what soyul from Crayon Pop claimed to be hospitalized for when she was actually just pregnant when she first found out and stopped performing) and so she and the company agreed to terminate the contract. Not sure why you think its unheard of for a female to have sex that young though….Teen pregnancy is NOT exclusive to America lol? It may not be as glorified elsewhere, but to say it doesnt happen is pretty weird and false.

this is it
Girl Group 01

Member L(Jessica) from a popular girl group has not been on friendly terms with her management, staff and fellow members (everything is strictly professional). Member L(Jessica) was told to go under the knife when she received a drama offer late last year. She was not keen on receiving the role and more so did not want to go through any plastic surgery procedure. She was also told that she was going to work on a musical project once she finishes filming all her parts. However, when she became adamant about the role and the surgical procedure her agency threatened her pull her off the musical project. So she went along with the agency’s decision. She was miserable with the initial surgical result and to make matters worse Member K(Taeyeon) who was also a part of the musical project requested the agency to replace L(Jessica) from the project with M(Seohyun), because L(Jessica) was unprofessional and argumentative during rehearsals. The agency also decided that it would be more profitable if they released the project earlier then planned. To top that Member K(Taeyeon) felt that M(Seohyun) was more deserving and the agency agreed. L(Jessica) was told about this change while she was shooting for her show, and as a result she felt she was back-stabbed by everyone involved excluding member M(Seohyun). Collaborative project was an instant surprise hit and L(Jessica) was not happy.


this was before everything happened
also, i remember netizens investigating, and not long after, the people on soshified doing damage control, and then one of them posting on their official account something along the lines of "wow you're such a fucking bitch" and that day two major jessica fansites shut down so everyone started to get scared that it was about jessica due to some shit posted on weibo
then a few weeks later jessica got knocked out by the body guard in the airport, and then like…the next week she made the post about being kicked from the group

idk but it was a wild time in the fandom and i had already checked out by then and was just watching them go down in a slow flame lol

Korea and East Asia as a whole has widespread honor/shame culture that encourages young girls to abort teen pregnancies or hide them rather than publicly talk talk about them. That's why they're so unheard of, they do happen, statistically less than the US, but they're encouraged to abort or hide them.

The rate in those countries is supposedly lower but who knows if the stats are ever true? Hearing the nasty shit about underage girls and burning sun and other numerous kpop scandals and the sexual coercion and abuse that underage trainees face makes me think that there's way more unreported young pregnancies in the country than realized- at least in the ent industry

Gayoung: Honestly, we didn't think ourselves to be sexy. Even our agency wondered if this would suit us. But as we practiced, we realized we could be [sexy].

Gayoung: It turned out really well for us. We got tons of love calls for various event performances and our negative [bank] balance became positive. We also got a car and a dorm. We also got a practice room that we could use all we wanted.

Minhee: Instead of sexiness, we wanted to pour our sincerity into the release ["Mask"].

Gayoung: We included in the lyrics why we had no choice but to do the sexy concept for 'Marionette'. We wanted to explain that we did it to receive love from the public.

Hyoeun: But, nobody seemed interested in our sincerity. It was to the point they didn't even know we made a comeback. Those who listened to the track said it was good, but people wouldn't even give it a listen.

Squeezing yourself into those mini shorts and topping it of with pulling the belt as tight as possible cannot be healthy.

Eh, can’t help but feel a bit bad for ex-trainees like Grace to spend much of their integral years training and performing only to end up washed out without many marketable real-world skills in the end. Being a successful idol’s a pipe dream and only attainable for the top 0.1% of trainees from rich and influential families. And being a successful idol comes with more cons than pros. Sadly these kids and teens are deceived by predatory companies and don’t realize until it’s too late how much they’ve wasted.

Still Grace has even admitted herself that her singing sucks so I don’t know what she’s doing trying to be a singer. Should just stick to tea-spilling videos for now and maybe build a career outside of anything entertainment-related.

Seungyeon is legit a good dancer imo, and Yeeun is a better rapper than most girl groups have. I feel sorry that they're been wasted here.

I feel like Cube tried out too many different styles with them and it's only hurt their chances of being known. Like BP and Twice may not be talented, but you know what image they sell and what they are going to put out. CLC does not have that consistency. Example: The follow up to Hobgoblin should have been Black Dress, not Where Are You/Distance. They shouldn't have waited nearly a year between Black Dress and No.

I find it really weird how obsessive fans blow things out of proportion sometimes or just make it a bigger issue that it is. For example, do you guys remember that whole #respectlisa thing? It went so far that US sites and channels covered it and made it seem like everyone in Korea hated her. But all of this was caused by a netizenbuzz translation with the top comments not even having 1000 up votes.
I'm glad they got called for seeing SEAs as inferior but it wasn't that big and because of all the buzz Lisa actually found out about it too.

Agreed. It's sad that they'll eventually be pushed aside by G-idle (who have a consistent theme and style) despite being more talented than them by a landslide. All of CLC can sing properly and perform well, but G-idle's only strong point is their rapper. Every time I watch that group perform I'm just waiting for someone to hit a wrong note or even for Soyeon to get off beat.
It's really unfortunate because CLC has had some really nice b-sides unlike a lot of girl groups. Cube worst company

The translator said translating for him was super easy and she would even forget he's non-korean at times so she doesn't understand why they would tell her that. What I find funny is that the staff didn't warn her about the two korean american members in the group even though their language skills is worse than his. Seems like they just wanted to take a dig at him because of where he's from.

that makes sense I guess. if you take into account how many groups were debuting 10 years ago versus today it feels like there's more of them, at least ones that somehow stay around, there were a lot of nugu flops in the late 00s early 10s whose companies didn't bother keeping them around but nowadays you'll see a lot more less successful groups continue to be dragged along like lifeless corpses trying to find success

in the case of groups like CLC who I actually like I'm glad they found success and conceptual footing but there's a lot of flop groups or failed groups who'd be better off disbanding

companies shouldn't take on than they can handle. I'm most disappointed in YG because there's not that many acts of his to be promoting and he can't promote them properly, look at akmu, the brother wrote songs for his sister before he went to the military hoping that yg would let his sister release them and yg hasn't even bothered to pull her out of the dungeon, her brother's finally coming back from the military and is going to be banished right back to the dungeon.

yg barely even gave Lee Hi a comeback and somi's debut was put the back burner over a month after what was supposed to be its expected release date. The only reason yg is even paying Lee Hi mind is to distract people from his scandals. not to mention the whole drama with CL and not allowing her to release music. this guy needs to stop being a judge on reality shows after the mixnine incident and stop taking trainees in if he's just going to ruin their lives and trap them in the perpetual yg dungeon, there were 2 girls who were former yg trainees on pd48 who trained for years only to leave the company, imagine wasting years of your life to not even debut bc your company's ceo is a fucking scumbag, the only reason miyeon from gidle was able to debut or the girl from fromis was able to as former yg trainees is that they somehow got lucky at other companies.

I have the impression that a lot of people underestimate exo's popularity. They might not be well-known internationally, but that's simply because their music is made for korea, while bts caters more to the american/international market. If even nct can get interviewed in the US, then so could exo, but they simply don't want or need to.
Bts is only liked in korea because they're "bringing honor" to the country or some bullshit, but the general public doesn't care much about their music, much less about individual members.
If exo was able to survive as many dating scandals as they had already (Kai had 2, yet is still one of the most popular members), then they'll also be fine after this.
I really wonder how ratmy would react if jimin were found to be dating lol

It's strange that he announced that so suddenly though. Xiumin leaving was a big drama and now he does that so quickly and quietly.

Yeah, that as well. They already own huge apartments, so they're definitely making more than enough.
I think that sm will drop nct (they simply have too), like they did with fx, but it's still too soon (sadly lol). If they did that now, then everbody would shit on them for "destroying the future of so many poor boys"

I recently watched exo's debut and it was so different from the debuts of nowadays groups. They were dressed so shitty and had a super simply stage (and i think it was the same for bts too). But when bp, twice, nct and the likes just started out they were already dressed in brand clothes, got immediately popular etc, it kind of feels as if idols get more and more spoiled. And they will also have more debt, if companies invest so much in them before they even bring in any money, right? Of course it's not good to let them live like beggars either, but mindlessly spending money on them also seems like a stupid move.

I think it's because they looked ugly-cute. Not attractive, but still somewhat natural or normal (even if they did get some things done). Meanwhile nct are also ugly, but already super plastic looking, which makes them appear less likable. Same for bts.
But that's a general trend for all kpop groups. A decade ago, everybody was just a lot more natural and now even 14-year-olds already went under the knive several times before debuting.

So a Japanese group called ANGERME is currently getting called out for cultural appropriation… by k-pop fans and are currently spamming idol fancams, calling them "cancelled" on them as if k-pop isn't one big cultural jack off. Most are BTS fans, surprise.

What did they do?
Whatever it is, kpop fans and ratmys should definitely not be the ones calling people out on racism or racially insensitive things.
bts has done a lot of things that would be considered "problematic", and cultural appropriation would be the lightest one of them.
They keep arguing that they've apologised but have they really? Has rm apologised for saying the n-word or for "imitating" back people?
Apologies have always come from the company because things like the holocaust or Hiroshima aren't small issues, and the rest are just buried by both bts and the fans. no wonder their fandom is so shit, hypocrites attract hypocrites.

You know that you can hate both…right? lol
But yeah, you can go for months without clicking on a single bts video and you'll still constantly have them in your youtube recommendations. Plus "Any Army here??? hehe"… Lately blackpink fans are catching up though. And on twitter it's loona stans, but only on twitter, no idea why.

Having a dozen sub groups, having an absolutely weird and inconsistent sound and not a single non-plastic member is what causes nct to just fail forever. No amount of sjw pandering will change that to the better.

I've watched other videos in this series on this channel, and most of them seem really even-handed about the idols' obvious disordered eating and yo-yo dieting, so that this one is so blantantly one-sided is almost jarring.

One girl is from Produce 48, she did the tragic Boombayah performance.

NCT is infinitely worse. At least BTS came from the ground up, NCT is riding on the coattails of their predecessors while getting spoonfed by Lee Soo Man through obvious favoritism.

Yeah cause that's basically how long the average group lasts. I think they are mostly small companies who know that they won't become the next bighit so they just ship their idols/trainees off to these shows, knowing that if they win they'll gain popularity just because of the group.
If the show wasn't so rigged, manipulated, and people not biased towards those they find attractive, I would have nothing against it.

This show feels more like modelling contest. I sometimes forget that it's an idol show because almost all articles I see on here are about their looks.

version of this cause then at least the initial stage would be determined by talent and the ones who have to engage in attention-whoring behavior to compensate for their lack of singing would get eliminated.

mnet definitely gets paid by companies to give their trainees more screentime and put them in the final lineup. maybe produce101 was genuine with the voting, but every season after that has been totally rigged. these idols just keep getting more talentless and plastic looking. it's sad.

Because they're insecure in their own opinions, they always do this with everything related to bts (i would be insecure too lol). They know bts being woke/lgbt/talented is a fucking lie but won't admit because that doesn't add up with their narrative of bts being "perfect pure beings". Also, they know Kpop music is sometimes very problematic, so they make all this shit up so people don't see them as enablers of a toxic industry but "Poc lgbt kings" supporters, so everytime you dislike anything about them they have the right to go apeshit with you

she looks way older than her age AND she doesn't look like herself because of the thousands of touch-ups her face has received over 2 decades - so it is safe to say that anon would look more decent at 30

and she is acting way to hard to stay relevant - her songs are not doing remotely as good as they used to do and that has gotta hurt! i don't think she is acting age-inappropriate but she definitely is trying to emulate chungha (another plastic monster) you can't deny that

That's a really good point. There's this girl (don't know her name) who posts dance covers at the same time as the song is released cause she looked at fan cams of their comeback performances or something and already learned the dance.
