like do you watch your favs content?
their live performances?
music shows?
have you listened to all their music?

an interesting question I ask is how do you differ how you like your groups - like what makes a group an ult vs merely stanning?

i have watched all of those, not for every group, and not all the time. and i try to listen to every song from my favorite artists!

WARNING: YAP SESSION AHEAD :dogsmile:

well i usually have a phase for new groups that i stan. I GO CRAZY! i’m always like “this group is going to be my favorite forever and nothing will ever come between us :uwu:
but if i lose interest, then i move them down to my stan list! if i never leave that phase, then they become an ult!
with the semi ult stuff, those are groups i enjoy but i wouldn’t use them to describe myself, y’know?? i love them, but they aren’t the first group i think of when you ask me for my MOST favorite groups
then with the semi semi ults, it’s kinda the same butttttt not. those are the groups that i love but i feel like i’m losing interest and they’re just about to go with the other groups that i just “like”
and then the stan list is just groups that i listen to every once in a while and i usually know all their names

wait wait wait
no nvm i need to stop yapping 😭

yap away my friend this is a conversation so keeping yappin lol

wow have you tried listening to all the songs from the groups above??? impressive

interesting so for the groups that you say you stan does it mean you watch their content and listen to all their songs as well?

and i don’t usually watch a lot of content from the groups i like
i’ve watched music videos but that’s probably it
S
Selfmate
interesting so I would assume then that the reason you start stanning a group is solely because of the music?

personally I differ slightly in that I can listen to any group and like any song whether BG or GG or otherwise but for me to take an interesting in a group and then for them to be my fav it usually is because of the member's perosnalities (or at least what we see of it on camera) and the group cohesion
SkylesDaughter
SkylesDaughter
no i do that too
i do watch a little bit of content, but only for groups i really care about
like when i watch Guide videos i get to see their personality from little clips. Both of my ults are my ults because they’re funny/cute and i love their personality
but because i stan so many groups, i don’t have much time to watch all their content
and IVE is kind of boring to me because they don’t seem to get along as well as most other groups
S
Selfmate
I like IVE's content - have you not seen the horror ones with Liz (and most of them lol)

do you also stream your favs music or anything else?
SkylesDaughter
SkylesDaughter
well i watched a little bit of their content right when they debuted so i guess my judgment was a little unfair
no i don’t really stream
i try not to listen to my favorite songs too much or i’ll get tired of it
S
Selfmate
that's all good my friend
but given that you have like a million favs and I'm assuming at least a fav within each group that's still a lot of fav songs lol

btw what would you say is your fav kpop of all if you have one
SkylesDaughter
SkylesDaughter
