Why is it me again? Most users do that most of the time here.

 

Aespa get drag and shaded using the same narrative all the time here but do you see me throwing childish tantrums and attacking users here? 

 

Nah, not most users. I remember there have been a few though and I’ve already called them out before. 
and idk why but it just reeks of some false sense of superiority complex when somebody does that, as if they can’t stand seeing someone else getting the praise that their faves didn’t at that moment. It’s very thinly veiled but as I said, I tend to notice these things and it’s even more annoying than a direct insult

I think it's the angle in all seriousness. He has other pics from that day and his chest looks normal 

 

bless him but it's kpop after all

we've seen hip pads, stuffed pants, it really wouldn't surprise me if he did 

[Odette Violet]

It's kinda hypocritical to single us out when like that's basically the norm here. What I don't understand if I do the same thing at some occasion or the so called sheeps does it then we are called the "bad guys"  the "bullies"

 

 

2 weeks of joining I was already accused of being a dupe, dumb and delusional. 3D.mp3

The user accuses others of racism, or should I say using the term for his own purposes, but then remains silent after saying Taeyeon is in a "slave contract". 

The fact that people are now tagging me ALONGSIDE Ryan because we all know he won't do anything about the Pluto issue and at least I can shut Pluto up for a few hours or scare him into behaving somewhat like a regular person.

Well I'm not them for sure. 

 

You can praise your faves all you want but don't go around accusing and personally attacking users bc they don't share the same mindset as you

Not y'all trying it with my slave contract comment, when there's literally a whole wiki page about the term which literally comes from the Kpop industry itself  

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slave_contract

 

Quote

A slave contract (Korean: 노예 계약; Hanja: 奴隸契約; RR: noye gyeyak) refers to an unfair, long-term contract between Korean entertainers and their management agencies

I’m not blind sis, I saw what I saw and that won’t change. But anyway let’s move on.

FWIW, I don't think you deserve to be called "weird" or "oddest violet" or the other personal attacks that have been thrown at you, over a K-Pop discussion. It's so unnecessary. 

 

OT: I've come to the conclusion that the Korean version is superior!

Accuses me of something yet proceeds to not follow their own advice and ignore the comments  this is my last response regarding this—- I regularly call out what I perceive to be baiting or setups on this thread even from users I like.
 

On the topic of Taeyeon, all members and former members continually make headlines. The demand is there and early 2022 was Taeyeon’s year and I have no doubt she’ll make waves when she comes back. 
 

Anyways, now that you’re all paying attention, stream the new song of the year: 

 

 

 

loving the jini promo

A lot of other bases have victim complexes towards us because even when our favs are in a rare flop era we still have amazing discographies, legendary talent, and genre defining/inventing legacies to talk about. Everybody wants to see sheep taken down a peg because of it and it has nothing to do with the specific behavior. Notice how it's always stans of groups who are lacking some of those things our favs have that whine about the superiority complex. It's really not our fault some of you stan "groups" where 1/3 of members sing on an acceptable level. Those groups are valid too and I like a lot of them myself but it's just something I've noticed.

Congratulating somebody who's making a mockery of slavery and racism is definitely an issue. I'm not the one who didn't read posts. My issue was with that not with you personally. 

Boy stop. I did not do that. 

[Witnessed ET]

Literally proving my point tbh ^^

 

also not a random mispronouncing of a username being called a “personal attack” lmao

Okay, not guilty until proven 

 

 

 

IVE's best album track methinks.

 

 

The song would've been better if Liz had all those highnotes, Yujin is lowkey serving Winter

Did you read the part about how contracts were reformed in 2017? Korea has by far the most progressive protections for major label musicians of any major music market. In the US the average contract is a 10 year MINIMUM but with the option to just totally drop you whenever they feel like, so its much more work but without any job security.

[TheCal]

I don't care anymore. You doing this will just make you get banned. Pity. Do what you want.

Oh I do like both versions, but I can hear in the Korean version that they sound more comfortable in the verses and it sounds more pleasing somehow. 

 

Queens of languages though. They should have released a Japanese ver. too tbh, it would have been perfect for the Hyper Line leg in Japan. I hate how we still have no official release from them in that language yet. 

 

Though Beyblade X OST (and Giselle's solo) are coming!

The way Love Again is constantly covered even though It's a b-side

 

It's following Don't Go, The First Snow and The Eve legacy
