But between them coming up with BTS, and having 13 members - they're definitely coming into their own and peaking much later in their trajectory. I'd say when HYBE acquired Pledis in 2020 was a big turning point for them in terms of overall global standing. I personally didn't get into SVT until that Summer when they released "Left & Right" Post some pretty pictures of mr scoops Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally didn't get into SVT until that Summer when they released "Left & Right" I used to be torn about who the hottest member was in SVT between Mingyu and Jun, but after I watched those clips from Jun's recent drama, it became easy Edited October 4, 2023 by Pluto2022 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odette Violet Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 (edited) Anything girl crush > cute/colorful The mentality of some of this western kpop tokkis. Girl crush wasn't even a thing yet when we already had f(x), 2NE1, 4Minute, SNSD doing every sense of that word but better Edited October 4, 2023 by Odette Violet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems kinda predatory because it's totally uninvited. If people talked about Lisa or Taeyeon the way they talk about male idols in here there would be RIOTS Fans objectifying and dehumanizing idols is a massive issue that goes beyond male idol stans being thirsty but the perversion of it in these scenarios is especially off putting to most of us.

They way you spilled nothing at all, girl do you remember Justin Bieber, Timberlake, 1D and NSYNC etc is not that they wear monk habits to perform , do they?

They're trendsetter yes but the whole point of that tweet was basically creating a narrative they started ending it as if Kpop were all just rainbows, unicorns and bubblegum Ps: Red Velvet was also doing semi Girl Crush with their Velvet side.
