They are the only SM bg who never really “hit it big” with a signature song. They had Dream, which did well, but it’s nowhere near TVXQ/SJ/EXO level. Their entire existence they lived under the shadow of BTS. They were hated by EXO fans because they thought SM was giving them preferential...

He’s responsible for the shitty music JYPE groups had for YEARS. Especially his girl groups charting extremely low for a Big company but then goes off on Yeji and makes her cry during a recording session for a freaking B-side. It’s about TITLE SONG SELECTION, and he’s been failing at it. Who is...

With all this discussion about who is good or bad in Big Bang after TOP blocked GD on IG, people are leaving out a certain key fact. He used to date Han Seohee while she was a young drug dealer (and possibly an escort) and they did drugs together. That’s after Hyunsuk brought her into YG “as a...

They were huge in the early 3rd gen era. Even with all Chinese members leaving. I think during the Kokobop era they were still big. Then they suddenly faded away, and EVERYTHING became about BTS. This happened before the Covid era. So I’m guessing somewhere between 2018 and 2019 the tables...

It’s being discussed a lot, even on Reddit. People are saying there’s a huge discrepancy between albums sold for this comeback and literally everything else, from streaming, non-ad YT views, event tickets sold, engagement, low album sales in Japan and China, etc. They are doing mid or nugu level...

First off, forced elementary school to high school for everyone came from white culture. Other cultures such as East Asian and Jewish also emphasized education but it’s not a universal thing in most nations histories. The vast majority of people are literally wasting their life in school just to...

Never in all my years of living did water do this when hit with something

How could someone who is famous for releasing hits for other girls groups such as SISTAR and Twice is able to give "Teddy Bear" as a title track to STAYC during an era of fierce GG competition? I honestly believe there is some foul play involved here, and I'm concerned for STAYC members because...

In the theoretical sense diversity seems good, but applying it in practice, whether for societies or lifestyles doesn’t necessarily make it ‘better’ for everyone in general. It should be coupled with quality in mind. Just imagine how much diversity of men there are but you still prefer the...

Imagine still using the n-word in 2023. As they say F around, Find out

They literally had an underage member sing adult/explicit lyrics in her introduction video and company stans said it was acceptable because it's part of her monthly evaluation and she picked the song, as if there's no adults in YG who know better. Like the entire group is made up of minors, and...

The cybernetic futuristic concept feels so 2000 and late. Nowadays the trend is turn of millennium concepts like what NJ, TS, IVE are doing. Imagine Aespa doing a high school baddie type concept. They were young enough for it. Getting stuck on Kwangya is getting too repetitive. The fans will eat...

More and more are debuting under age. It’s always a cycle: 1. minor idols from small company debuts 2. they get success so kpop fans get angry that they have minors 3. kpop fans protest but the group is successful so the company doesn’t care 4. kpop fans swear it’s the last time they will...

Imagine fandoms fighting over every little tweet a company posts for their idols and whether which one is more popular or more organic. This will be mind breaking for the Twitter stan crowd

I realized this every time companies owned by men kick out or restrict women idols from appearing in Korean media, and they don’t call it abuse of power. But when a woman has to raise her voice to fight for her dignity in an industry completely hostile to her gender she is seen as a demon and...

Everyone likes to see an empowered woman comfortable with her own body but not at the expense of another culture. Lisa has apologized in the past about her own appropriation but not Jennie afaik. She’s a Korean woman earning multi millions thanks in part to taking so much from black culture. Yet...

As the JYP notice said, Jinni left for personal reasons. She made the choice that she could no longer go on as an idol and hence JYPE has to break off her contract. Since the beginning I've said that Jinni did not look at all like she was fully present mentally in her role as an idol. There...

SM gave the “AI” to Aespa and dual concept to RV. Aespa grew up in the corona era while RV debuted in the silver age of kpop Fans said RV got mistreated often. SM isn’t handling Aespa the best that they could.

But it explains why 25 is considered "too old" in the kpop industry, because companies take advantage of those who still don't have fully developed adult brains

Both mid-tempo noise songs with a slight retro vibe, yet people will force themselves to try to like Birthday and completely ignore We Fresh because it's from Kep1er. If you like one try giving the other a chance as well
