Fans call it racial discrimination, but I'd wager it's gender discrimination too. I doubt the paparazzi would behave that way in front of a girl group. 

I don't see how this was racist  sure they were rude but all western media are like that, and there was 0 serve in 7 men standing in a straight line with no expressions

 

this would've worked fine in a Korean award show but not at the Met

I was watching the Independent live stream and they were this rude to everyone. If they weren't rude in their faces, they would say something as soon as the celebrity stepped away. It's not that deep

My favs on 1st listen

This is your second time trying to downplay this situation.
The paparazzi literally said that the members had covid  You can also hear the paparazzi mockingly saying hello in Korean etc.. Like there was clearly racist undertones. 
But yeah, paparazzi are in general known for being rude to celebs in general, but that doesn't mean that this situation didn't have racism involved.
 

But this kind of xenophobia has sadly happened or will happen to almost every Kpop group at least once, whenever they are attending these kind of A-list events in the West.

looks like he will avoid music shows and give us other promotions instead.

How is the album? Is it better than empathy?

IVE would never flop like Itzy but the decline in their charting is real. Kinda similar to how "More & More" was dragged for peaking at #3 Melon, because we were so used to TWICE slaying the charts. 

 

Iirc Baddie got like a PAK (?) but it's serving 0 longevity because the lack of quality shows. About to fall below Love Dive on Melon Daily chart (and 40 spots below I AM)

 

Well they can still shove Accendio down people throat and get that PAK now 

This is dumbest drag ever. It's like saying RV has been flopping since 2017 just because they didn't have a song as big as red flavor.  You have been trying to push the narrative that IVE is declining in Korea and it's not working. 
And twice was dragged by people like you so please don't even mention them 

[youresotoxic]

a life changing release... their BEST song

RV was indeed on a decline until they released Psycho which was a year-end top 10 hit and staying in Melon top 10 for a long time, so your comparison makes no sense

 

And yes, "More & More" was an underperformance despite its peak and we all know what is their career trajectory in Korea after that

Not SM basically spoiling KARINA and NINGNING's teasers by posting this now

 

This version looks cute but hopefully the ring binder part is manufactured well enough.

I kinda hate ring binder versions... just like Birthday's. it looks bad and stores horribly with other albums 

but it will still be purchased regardless

The fact Ningning's back art looks like a Butterfly too  This era is really it so far, so much detail

[youresotoxic]

Mars was cute, but Popcorn should've been the title track tbh

My thoughts exactly...Birthday was why I brought up the manufacturing part, because honestly it was kinda cheaply made and the pages don't turn smoothly because they scrape against the ring binder part

 

I like the concept pics on this version though so I will probably get it, but interested to see what the other versions look like too.

They have gone all out with the symbolism so far this era!

 

If you notice, the flames on all their covers make their official symbols. It's less obvious with WINTER and GISELLE's covers but you can see it more clearly on KARINA's with her heart symbol.

I didn't notice till now but wow  This is almost a perfect era so far. The teaser launch video, individual image teasers along with a short clip, the highlight medley coming so early. It's been awhile since a teaser schedule was actually fun and engaging.
