Speaking of the idol has-beens,Moon Heejun and Soyul named their daughter Heeyul. Reminds me of those ghetto names you see where people combine names. My friend named her daughter Darielle, from Donte and Ariel. I can’t help think of Dairy Cow. Is this a thing people do in Korea?

Don't think they're doing songs in spanish like they do with japanese either. The song you've provided as an example is sang 90% in english, like your average reggaeton packaged for an American audience. Yeah, i know there are more genres than reggaeton, but what all these groups with latino flavours are doing is basically reggaeton and tropical house, which is what is radio friendly in america.
Latam doesn't buy music , find it hard to believe they would be a target market. At best they're reaching for the mexican american cuban american etc demographic.

Yeah I get idols have to be perfect, theyre held to impossible beauty standards blah blah blah i dont care, it's annoying as hell that those two ugly fat asses host that one variety show on the creepy plain white set (never understood that btw, they look bizarre w/ zero frame of reference, just like family guy floating in purgatory)
That one comedy host/MC woman who had a dating rumor w/ BTS Jin – also fat & ugly as hell & NOT funny. Also very ugly hosts & staff for SNL Korea & the Produce type shows. YG the guy is ugly as sin, Lee Sooman is ugly as sin, and Bang PD is a full assault on my eyeballs. Yeah i get it, they're not performers – but we still have to see them on TV, in awards shows, reality shows, all of it.
JYP (the guy) is not bad, but if anyone in korean media needs a forehead implant, it's HIM, not poor little teenage Yeri or Jisoo (& i don't even like yeri or jisoo so this is saying a lot). YEAH I GET HE'S NOT AN IDOL but it's still annoying bc these guys have all the time & money in the world, they could get all kinds of surgery, personal trainers etc instead they just let themselves go & make a living telling underage girls it's totally normal & expected to be anesthetized so some shady corrupt industry surgeon can cut into their eyelids or mouth corners, then literally remove full chunks of jaw bone. Kpop is wild.

Do we rly have to talk about this again? It's all fan service. Even if an idol is gay you'll probably never hear about it bc lgbt/woke movement or whatever is not a thing in SK at least not yet. Your faves are ACTING. Kpop companies figured out that young female fans love implied gay/open relationships between males in kpop groups. theres all kinds of interesting research out there. It's especially for white/"western" fans bc skinship is not a thing in the U.S., Canada etc. It's unusual to see boys openly caring for each other, touching etc. They are assigned personalities & roles, they pretend to like each other, they are playing a part. Fan meet, acting. On stage, acting. Walking thru airports, acting. Once you accept it, its fascinating to see how they manipulate news, stories, fan interactions & the psychology of it all
The "ideal type" things are all scripted, or at least somewhat planned. Everyone picks something that will be safe for the average femcel fan. IU is a "safe" crush for JK to claim. He may not even like her at all, it's all just media play. A crush on Hyuna or a white celeb would be too controversial.
The "hot" one in Stray Kids (oxymoron?) is filmed being rather subdued, easy going, reading books but you know the guy was a dick in high school.
Yuri of SNSD once said her ideal type was a guy w/ monolids. I was like LOLLLL wow that's brilliant. Her basement dweller sped fans now feel a lil better about themselves. Get it? Jfc we shouldn't have to keep explaining this

I wanted to see what’s going on behind that Chicken Noodle Soup song and from some ratmys jhope supposedly wanted to release this song waaay before and Tinashe was supposedly working with him for a collab on his mixtape too…
I wonder what made Tinashe quit if she really was working with him on that trask. I suppose she was feeling iffy about it being a remake of that song about harlem oppression or she feared to get all the ratmys camp under her tweets (good move from her either way)

The use of this song tho? Really weird. Sure they really love this song and it’s JHope’s first song he danced to but you have to keep in mind it was originally a song about Harlem oppression. Distorting the meaning of this song to adapt it to your life (which was not on par with the Harlem kids’ life) is foolish.

My degree involves all of this but honestly I know that it's just gonna lead to arguing/derailment. I hate the race bait in this thread.
All of the satin outfits from twices comeback are apparently custom made by a designer. I like nayeon's but for the most part I feel like they didn't try in terms of quality control and I was shocked to find out that it was made just for them since it doesn't seem tailored well to their bodies. They most likely drew some designs, gave vauge measurements and then sewed them real quick to give to the girls. Hopefully they shake off the old neckbeards like SNSD did around Run Devil Run. They would even make fun of uncle fans openly to push them away. JYP copies everything that SM does so much that you'd think he'd pay attention to the fact that girls made SNSD popular for a whole decade. Men were even whining about how SNSD wasn't approachable anymore and girls in Japan said they liked them because their Japanese music was very pro-girls4girls. Idk why people in this thread act like SNSD flopped and got old and dusty after a year when they lasted a long time for a girls group and 3rd gen groups copy everything that they do.

Jihyo's hair is a fucking crime. Momo is an actual horse. Dahyun has been dipped into a vat of bleach. Jeongyeon looks like they told her to just grab whatever old dress she has at home in that color. Nayeon is absolutely tragic head to toe, but w/ Mina gone she can't be the absolute dead center in photos so hopefully that will take her down a peg.
I really wanna know how Nayeon is so confident. I think it might be a shallow hal situation where she sees a totally different person in the mirror

My understanding is academic & vocational competition is so insane in SK, any family enrolling their kid in dance/music training, & serious about it, is likely already quite comfortable.
Armys exaggerate BTS's "hard knock roots" to laughable extremes. These guys were not discovered on the streets busking or dancing for spare change. They were all quite comfy, esp Jin.

YGE's narrative for blackpink is all "Rose doesn't have her solo yet!" "Jisoo used to be a bad dancer but she worked so hard, now she's good!" "Is Jennie lazy or just distressed/unwell?" Check out that lonnnnnng ass list of recent YGE mediaplay on akpop then tell me the lazy Jennie thing wasn't staged. Of course it was, thousands of ppl watched those yt compilations & it got everyone talking. Someone at yge is kind of an actual secret genius
The Coachella thing is rumored to be that Jennie was sold to, or on her own volition offered herself to some bigwig to secure BP's headlining (or close to) slot. Anyone who doesn't believe this, is probably 12 yrs old. Sorry kids, all entertainment industries all over the world are corrupt as hell. Sex, drugs & rock-n-roll y'all.

>>53010Rbw, mamamoo's company, is quite hated by their fans and the members themselves have alluded multiple times that they're unsatisfied with their decisions. They're not good at managing them at all, they constantly make stupid moves.
If you know mamamoo at all, you can see that they don't wanna be there either by their attitude. They constantly say they don't like competition and refuse to play into mnet's attempts at an evil narrative. And frankly they don't even give their 100% in the performances.
My guess is that mnet threatened somehow all these companies and they gotta do what they gotta do cause mnet controls a lot of shit. Some could do with more publicity, like Bom, but I bet most of them are there by force.

No. 53096
>>53091>>53093That was all scripted/planned. They have to do this stuff to keep the shows interesting. Ditto all US/UK reality shows, competition shows. SKZ was scripted too, JYP knew Felix was charismatic, handsome, had great chemistry w/ Chan, he also has that really low voice w/ rich timbre not present in any other Stray Kids contestant. Getting rid of him then bringing him back was brilliant, a perfect 2-in-1, it really upped the drama & got the tears flowing.
Same for Momo. And Twice didnt "need" a main dancer, really any of them could have been it. JYP/JYPE have fooled everyone into thinking Mina's some great dancer even tho she's terrible, so he could have bumped her up, then literally anyone could have been "lead."
Idk why it matters anyway, i mean do main dancers get paid more than leads? Do visuals get paid more than talents like Soyeon or Yuju? It's all so arbitrary. i'm convinced they have this hierarchy system just to spark discussion & create drama amongst fans.

>>53097Yeah right on. Maybe it seems extra dumb bc technically EVERY member is a lead or sub dancer lol everyone sings & dances, everyone is dressed/made up & photoshopped to death, everyone claims to starve to make weight. And every member has fans who think they're the most beautiful person on earth, even if theyre not "THE VISUAL." So it all just seems very redundant, or forced. I get it tho.

I mean, their english singles are meant to be radio friendly. BwL isn't. And those were never meant to become a big phenomenon like PSY's gangnam Style.
Other than this, their korean music is nice, imo. Sure, not for everyone but it's the kind of music that sure would be nice to hear and dance to in a concert, for sure.

>>53102. Especially considering that Halsey feature, Boy With Luv could have (and honestly… should have?) been even bigger, but they basically gave her a handful of lines to harmonize with instead of "featuring" her the way a Western audience would expect. Pair that with an awkwardly translated title and sporadic English lines and you have something that doesn't stick in the mind of the stereotypical American listener. And you're right, it did get huge. But they didn't go too far out of their way to play the game, so to speak, in the West for that track. As a result it will be a blip in Billboard's memory

kinda unrelated but most people don't realize how fucking disgusting fandom culture is. when did writing fan fiction about real breathing people become ok? or wasting your parents' hard earned money on idols who only see you as an atm? kpop companies are selling a fake social connection and dumb teens and even older people are eating that shit up without any second thought

>>53151Fandoms have always been this way. I was an 1D fan and that’s exactly how it worked back then too, people were spending their parents’ money and they were following them across the globe, often stalking them.

It’s how fandoms work.
No. 53154
>>53151Honestly this thread has little to no room for being 'fair' because saying one good thing automatically means you're a stan or hate someone so much that you like that group.
I think kpop is slightyl different from Western fandoms in the sense that these people very genuinely believe they have some sort of relationship with these idols. Boundaries are almost non-existent so people go an stalk these idols and share info, and companies aren't willing to say much until it's serious or people complain. Idols themselves are basically actors when in public pretending to be friends and w/e.
Take those principles to a Western boy group or any group - celebs are free to act how they want (though obviously will pretend to like each other or be okay but they're far more genuine), fans may be obsessed but there seems to be a bit more of an understanding of boundaries and reality. I have no doubt that there's some delusional fans running after them but I doubt it compares to those of kpop in extremity.

People feel sorry for Mark because he's overworked but isn't it strange that he always gets to be part of everything? And scamming Taeong get's pushed way too much as well. Baekhyun is one of the few good singers in kpop so him having little or even just less lines than others makes zero sense - especially in such an important expensive song/debut.

If anyone in BP is cutesy pedo bait, isnt it Rose? I especially think rose is forced to put on that high-pitched voice in interviews/vlives, it's obviously not natural.
Attached pic is one moment where i totally agreed with you, but just for a second, cuz i never rly saw anything like this again from Jennie.

But I definitely think part of the issue keeping kpop from being mainstream is that only young people are interested. It's kind of like how a "youtube celebrity" is famous but like only in a really narrow demographic.
Fundamentally teen kpop stans don't have a lot of disposable income, which makes kpop in the US super unprofitable. You need an older fanbase to earn a real income.

>>53431Hard disagree. The lack of English is the MAIN factor in kpop not going further in the U.S. I'm right in between the boomers & whatever teens are being called today, with many personal contacts on both ends so I kinda feel I can speak to this. "How can you listen to a language you don't know" is the #1 objection regardless of how good the song is, how cool the dance/mv is or how beautiful the idols are.
FWIW I only got into kpop & learned everything about it bc I was off work for a couple yrs on medical & I literally had all the time in the world. Never would have happened on a normal or even "light" regular adult's daily schedule.

Then he did the same with Rose after he worked with her on the solo magazine cover she did.
>>53446He has been Paris with Blackpink this whole time. I know he took pictures of Lisa but I'm not sure about Rose (or Jisoo when she was in London). He was also with Lisa,Rose, and Jisoo when they went to NYC without Jennie. Then followed Jennie when she went to Paris for her 1st Chanel show.

>>53450>>53451Many american fans are fascinated by the fakeness esp the psychological manipulation, the marketing, the fan service, skinship etc. & how the kpop idol system would never work in the US, we have too many laws preventing the mistreatment & we don't have their insanely strong, almost autistic work ethic. Also we like to sue or threaten to sue at even the slightest hint of trouble lol. I feel kpop is just our random, nerdy lil interest in this sense. The gp, in the car flipping thru top 40 radio stations, doesn't care about any of this, they just want to hear a catchy song .. & they won't sit & listen to a song that's not in English.
But this is also why I don't play Tori Amos or Steely Dan when I have guests in my car, I play a workout playlist (all fun pop/rock) or let them pick a radio station. People don't want to be forced through a music history or media marketing lesson, or a foreign language lesson, they want to be entertained.

Twitter stans are pissed that the Hollywood reporter article mentions Jonghyun. I get being pissed at the “this random kpop guy took his own life because kpop is hard :(“ attitude and not unpacking all the cultural and societal nuances, but the idol industry exacerbates everything wrong with the korean industry at large.
Stans are even calling it an anti-kpop agenda for the love of god. There’s racism and xenophobia then there’s having a brain and recognizing human exploitation and the human cost. For fucks sake, these companies aren’t out here trying to actually cultivate talent and create something that people can enjoy together, they’re creating a whole apparatus to exploit consumers.

Of course a journalist didn't write an article for the fans (most of whom aren't working yet and don't know what it's like to not have any free time). He doesn't need to.

>>53548You know most 13 year olds have met creepy old dudes and skeevy pervs who eye them up and down sexually at playgrounds, outside schools, at random public places right? Most of them have parents who tell them not to enter the Kpop industry if anything, because it usually means your child will practice late and miss classes while being pressured into cutting their faces up to look prettier, all while getting paid infrequently unless they debut and turn a profit. Most Korean parents wants their kids to become civil servants or professionals, not idols, even acting is seen as more respectable because they are a serious profession that doesnt entail performing sexy dances for army recruits. Pushy stage parents are a minority maybe the Itzy girls or Chenle.
In Korea despite the money, idols are seen by society as a lower profession (nobody cares about their opinion on politics or serious issues) like teen-focused performers compared to actors, accountants, doctors, lawyers, civil servants etc because they are not well educated/talented and many get plastic surgery to make it, even the few who successfully debut are mostly picked for looks or sex appeal over talent(see JYP Miyoung). Too many idols end up like Kang Sunghoon, Kangta or Luna peddling music lessons or makeup online or Sulli filming nipslip videos. Korean parents rather their kids be nerdy geeks.

https://streamable.com/u3m2x lel
My point is most pushy Korean parents want their kid to get to a top university and be a doctor (see Sky Castle or google Cho Kuk scandal) then marry another white collar professional. Show business is seen as messed up and immoral by many Koreans because it's full of drug scandals(GD, Yoochun, Ju Jihoon, YG artists) or sex favour sponsorships/harassment(Seungri, Jang Ja yeon, Goo Hara) and plastic surgery so even even if it's a way to get rich, for middle class and above Koreans it is seen as a risky career that could ruin your kid's life if they get into the wrong crowd inside the industry.
I recall that Sechkies idol Ko Jiyong who quit Kpop altogether very early and went back to being a normie who runs his own firm (he's like BTS Jin from a rich family so he never needed Kpop to be a chaebol) and married a doctor, that's pretty much how middle or upper class Korean parents want their kids to be, because they don't see idol careers as sustainable in the long run. Once you hit 30 you are relegated to being a TV clown like Heechul or Moon Hee Jun if you cant sing or act well.

Even stuff like vlive or wherever other videos come from - someone will be crying about their voice (Jimin I think?) asking for a vocal coach (which he still doesn't have clearly and because it's a repeating situation) or starving themselves because 'hur dur I'm fat' and BigHit does shit all about it. They don't care about what message they're trying to send when there's plenty of ignored evidence that this 'love yourself' message is pure bs

>>53706Beyond unicef, SA and SK are economic interests now. Kpop/BTS are the most influential exports SK has currently. BTS has essentially become a political pawn.
Big Hit’s first mistake was using wokeness as a marketing tactic. It might have won initial followers and shit, but in Korea that’s not sustainable. There’s no way that in a country as conservative as Korea, they managed to find the magic group of seven dudes who aren’t products of their raising.
I could give fuck all about the members. Ratmon in particular seems to be beyond fucking annoying/pretentious, but bang is also being a little bitch about this whole thing. He took these guys when they were literal children and put them in this position, I’m sure they’re emotionally and intellectually stunted in plenty of ways. I’m ready for them to just enlist and retire. Ideally this would be a tale of caution but instead people are going to emulate this fuckery.

Some other groups are said to soon perform in SA as well, but ratmy can't use this to shield their oppars since nobody ever acted as woke and self-rightous as them.
It's only a matter of time until people will start to question the credibility of acting as some sort of humble but sexy mother teresia figure when you're actually a bunch of brand obsessed male millionaries who rip off teen girls by selling noise and gay fanservice.
What do they know about the struggles of normal young people? Jin was born rich, only Suga worked for a little while, the rest is wealthy since reaching adulthood. And judging by their earlier lyrics they also don't respect women as much as their fans like to make everybody believe.
Idols get waken up by their managers, they get their makeup done, hair washed and clothes picked out (and put on) by their stylists, they depend on others to bring them food, they get driven around, they're absolutely dependent, no matter what age. (No idea about bts, but exo have somebody who even removes their makeup and washes their faces…) And on top of that, their fans baby them too so that their feefees won't get hurt. They know absolutely nothing about life or social, global issues. American celebrities can get canceled for stuff like using non-vegan makeup - meanwhile unnies and oppars are doing blackface in 2019 and nobody gives af. Maybe some backlash for 2 or 3 days, but that's it, because they didn't mean it afterall!

The only saving grace is the urban dictionary definition of Jopping, and how the song kept saying they were all going to be Jopping together throughout the song.
But even that somewhat comedic part isn't enough to save the song, absolutely nothing can save that sham of a song.
It's going to be even more insulting if they think how they look and dance is enough encouragement to bother giving it more than one listen, since even more is far too much effort than it's worth

Brian's voice paired with his verses made me grossed out and uncomfortable.
Chungha's voice was just barely listenable, but the song isn't very interesting.
The most notable things were Brian's narcessism showing over his atrocious mullet, and the Baby crocodile not having enough deserved screentime.

>>53811I agree with you. Originally I was going to say 'soyboy', but it's more appropriate to say that Brian seems to have a more eunuch-like approach of what he thinks his poor self-aggrandizing example of self-confidence really is. When really, he's making a caricature of it and doing the exact opposite of what he seemingly intended to do, at least praying that it was what he intended having even listened to the song.

I was surprised by how much screentime Kai got, but his look likely appeals the most to your average american so that's a smart move for once. Mark and Baekhyun on the other hand look way too innocent or boyish to be in a mv with a tough image like that. Who thought pastel pink hair was a good idea?

It looks like J-hope got jealous that V is called CGV by fandom and wanted to show the world what irl CGI really was by not wanting to look human anymore through too much plastic surgery.

Anyway, they're doing an #asksperm event and of course immediately get urged to pander to the woke crowd a la bts. That's not even a question, you're only asking to coddle them. They won't even understand what that means (minus Mark maybe) plus all of exo said homophobic stuff in the past.

The flower boy aesthetic is just having its moment right now, & in the west it's partly due to recent political factors i won't get into bc i don't want to derail.
If Eastern standards of masculinity are so different from your average American's, why do they tweak male idols' heights to seem taller? Why did Big Bang or BAP get anywhere? Use your brain.

She does always have this creepy, dead stare, like a cyborg.
Speaking of TWICE, Tzuyu is the single most boring idol I've ever come across, and that's saying something since most of them are dead inside. That girl has NO talents? At all? Not a single thing about her makes her stand out in any way? She's a shitty, boring dancer, she's one of the weakest, most boring singers, she has an extremely boring face, and she has the personality of a wet cardboard box. She is so plain and uninteresting. I can't imagine she's ever had a single valuable thought in her life. Looking at her makes me feel like someone emptied her skull and filled it with chewed gum. Granted, all of the Twice girls are boring as hell, but Tzuyu is on a whole new level, it's like she's on autopilot all the time. To me, she's as uncanny valley as Dahyun, if not more, because Dahuyn seems to have a semblance of personality in variety (albeit, annoying as all hell). Tzuyu is just an empty, untalented shell.

Tinfoil, but Taeyong really having to do shady things in exchange for not getting dropped by SM for all his controveries, would also explain his quite obvious ED (he says his favourite food is oatmeal while looking like this…) and his PS obsession.

>>53926Nobodys missing out. Kai looked 40+ in every picture taken of him that night. I guess being an idol ages you like crazy.

>>53837This is just like the interview Seventeen did in the U.S. where a fan put them on the spot and asked them to coddle their LGBT fans.
They got hailed as woke kings after this comment but it was obvious they were uncomfortable and just trying to say something that sounded good enough to please the fans but at the same time, wouldn't be supportive enough to get them in trouble with their managers or the anti-LGBT crowd. Just like what BTS does.

>>53837Remember in like 2008 when kpop fans were stumbling over themselves to assert kpop isn’t gay… my how the turntables.
>>53951Can we be honest, it’s not even the LGB people it’s these new mogai enbies, fakebois, and fakegirls. These definitely are not the people the korean gp would want to associate with, the gp in western countries where this trend is happening barely takes this shit seriously. Questions like this are just furthering kpop’s reputation as something weird for a maladjusted audience.

>>53938They all look awkward because they know they can't turn to whatever they use to "charm" the crowd back home.
Can't use creepy aegyo or queer baiting to titillate fans and won't get cutesy media play articles like "________ puts on wig and wows the fans with their beauty!

>>53966Being sick of the lucas obsession on this board doesn't mean you have to be a fan of another idol anon… At least keep it to the other two threads.
>>53951Taemin is a super devout christian and nearly all of exo have said stuff like marriage is for a man and a woman kek. No matter what they say now, sperm stans, the truth is just one google search away.
