Butters Posted January 10, 2023 Posted January 10, 2023 6 hours ago, Gaia said: The criticism revolves around the themes on the lyrics and how their whole image is just a fake brand like any other group. It’s just kinda cringe. Talking about how critical the industry is while conforming to it Talking about how pathetic haters are when they are already like “OT5 is perfect. Love is the way we are. We’re so strong and United” like they weren’t OT6 like months ago Those haters clearly got what they wanted. Idk, my own opinion is just, if you’re going to have lyrics like that at least show that you’re trying to combat it a bit. She was part of PD101. She already had experience to know the idol world was very critical (considering how she was heavily criticized due to evil mnet edits making her look selfish and self centered). She was then a trainee and then dropped. And then a trainee again etc. Like ok you experienced it all before, then still decide to become an idol. Then conform to stick thin and pale beauty standard. Then a member is kicked out of your group over a controversy and you pretend she never existed after a month or two. That’s why members in this thread made comments that the lyrics seem performative. They’re written to look woke and cool. “Look at me I’m criticizing the status quo” Yunjin's song is essentially aespa's Lifes Too Short with more attitude. It's real enough to people since she wrote and composed the song herself and is clearly just expressing herself I feel like everyone here just watched Yunjin's "I want to change the idol industry" predebut video and assumed that her music was intended to be something revolutionary but its literally just about how netizens objectify idols like her and how she's her own person. I don't understand how anyone could have such a cynical reaction to something like that but whatever.

It's disgusting how SM pretends like f(x) never existed They even excluded them on their Kwangya universe lore. none of the members are signed to sm so why would they include them in kwangya universe lore they didn't include s.e.s, h.o.t, shinhwa and other sm groups no longer under sm so literally why would they include f(x). be serious.

That's true. But, I mean who can blame them? 7/8 years and still no album in sight. Now that I think about it, they made the right decision leaving SM. They had nothing going on in there, better look out for opportunities somewhere else

You can’t preach about wanting to change the idol perception and industry when you’re still act like a puppet of this industry. It was better to said nothing lol. Like girl, they allowed you to sing this song bc it’s perfect for the image that they created around you and your group. I mean she is right to criticize the haters, but the problem also start with your agency, they are the one who probably pushed you to get a new face and you accepted it, they are the one who changed your fashion style and your accepted it, they are the one who told you to be conscious of your weight, they are the one who let minors humping the floor on fearless and you accepted it, they are the one who erased Garam existence and you accepted it. All that and yet you’re not calling them out either so … Yeah idol aren’t doll then go said that to your company first! I've watched some of Lesserafims behind the scene contents and....Yunjin does give off strong 'I'm not like the other girls' energy. But considering she was on Kpop stan twitter as an Army before debuting that's not surprising so

newaespa Posted January 10, 2023 Posted January 10, 2023 Still can’t believe aespa managed to sell out their 2 dates of fanmeeting in JAPAN without even stepping in prior to the fanmeet and over 400k people in the queue to snatch the tickets but apparently some haters who have low taste think YouTube views is more important?
DelRey Posted January 10, 2023 Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) I kinda like this song, their cb was really a nonevent. A shame because some of them are really talented. Edited January 10, 2023 by DelRey

Bounce back or diamonds only should've been the title track instead of phantom which is good but forgettable and not catchy
New Edition Posted January 10, 2023 Posted January 10, 2023 Were they inspired by Kpop? Are they better than Kpop? Is that what the Hybe and JYP American girl groups will serve?

All the members have been saying that they are still interested in releasing an album as a group. & Yeah, a renunion / "closure" album would be nice.
