I do feel it's necessary to know why Wonbin is shaking his butt like that to Taemin's Move.

And the fact that Kpop stans are dragging SKZ and saying that they are “embarrassing” Kpop just because they are staying true to their sound and singing and performing their OWN KOREAN SONG as KOREAN MEN :redface:Like it’s kinda xenophobic how Kpop stans themselves are expecting Kpop acts to sell out and try to “fit in” if they were to perform at American Award shows. Like you don’t see it with other genres such as Latin music, but for some reason Kpop acts are expected to fit in and not showcase what makes them unique and what makes them Kpop to begin to a new audience. Then why did y’all become Kpop fans to begin with? :redface:

I don’t like the song either, but people are being too dramatic I fear, as if every artist apart from SKZ are performing good music at Award Shows all the time
 

A lot of locals actually liked their performance  though

just dont claim "xenophobia" because we'd prefer they actually sing one of their better songs, of which they have many

Interestingly a strange news article about Seulgi "renewing" came out like last month. It was very unexpected and SM had to make a statement saying she is definitely still under her contract. 

 

SM claimed all members renewed a while ago, in 2021, but of course we know that it's just their required 3 year extension, they didn't have a choice in renewing or not. 

 

So that's why I don't think Irene is leaving...yet. Unless she has a dispute and this is SM's mediaplay starting. I noticed the article blamed her for RV not having any activities lately which was a weird thing to say...

Yeah I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re trying to pressure her into renewing... 

 

I wonder what type of career Irene can have if she leave SM. With her scandal it’s easy to blacklist her (if it’s not already the case in SK)

Wow, Sungchan's really popular based on those chants. Sohee not so much, hmm.

 

I love the styling of this group except when they do baggy grey pants, appropriate for nothing.

The post wasn’t referring to you, but in general of comments I have seen on social media by Kpop stans themselves and haters giving a little bit of xenophobia

Red Velvet IRENE allegedly not renewing her contract... 

 

I don't think I believe this source though. Plus SM already confirmed recently that all the girls are still under contract, but that has happened before with other groups and a member still left so idk...

 

 

oh my god... :gaycat7: I mean, I understand why, but still :chick3: so sad

I thought we knew Red Velvet was circling the drain when SM announced Aespa as soon as Irene's scandal broke

The thing is, based on our public knowledge of SM contracts, the renewal shouldn't happen until around August 2024 anyway (same with Wendy, Seulgi and Joy). 

 

Which is why I think, if this source is actually true, it's more like an EXO situation and she has a dispute with her contract or trying to renegotiate it before the expiration. 

 

I wouldn't be surprised if she has a dispute, looking at her total lack of activities from SM in the past 3 years.

I'm not overly worried yet to be honest, we'll have to see if any more news about it comes out, or if SM makes a statement.

 

Kinda odd timing though, considering she suddenly got that Japan CF out of nowhere in the past few weeks, now this. Plus RV3 is supposedly on the way

Didn't they have a career re-peak literally just last year...hardly circling the drain. If anything SM has been trying (but failing) to tank them.

Yeah like you said maybe it’s just a dispute, or maybe she wanted like CBX to have access to reports of her own revenues through the years
