Daishi Dance was such a "moment" omg, wish he would go back to produce k-pop songs. 

Now this is K-pop!

Like legit Itzy's downfall should be studied. I disliked them on their debut but even I couldn't deny they were MASSIVE and I had no choice but to seethe.

 

Giving most lines to Chaeryeong is a choice tho, her voice is just bland. Welp. 

It's what they deserve for releasing turd after turd. My faith in them is so low that I haven't listened to a song from them since Loco, when DD was my #2 for SOTY in 2019. 

 

THEE biggest fumble in k-pop by a country mile. The girls are ridiculously charismatic and could be where aespa are right now.

WINTER has been hospitalized and can't participate in aespa's Bangkok day 2 tour date.

 

People attending also noticed she looked really unwell/almost collapsing on the day 1 date.

 

Hope she is okay and can recover. Get well soon queen. 

 

 

Mothers still in their goofy unserious bag

It's genuinely heartbreaking but I think the GP is just like you. ITZY have had some great songs (Imaginary Friend, GWBG, Voltage, Blah Blah, Tunnel Vision, Untouchable and Born To Be) but they get so hidden in the awful title tracks that people tuned out.

 

They don't have an insanely good vocalist or even strong vocal chemistry between the members, so I think that's what's holding them back. I honestly think they needed one more main vocal who can belt and they would have been much bigger.

It's crazy how SM did so well spacing out their concert dates this time and then they randomly threw in a concert half a world away to make it hard on them.

I'm convinced that these girls are DEMONS. How are you going to make me stan a HYBE group and then come nowhere near my city on your tour?

It's basically Walkin' on Water 2.0, but with an even higher budget

 

those "studied downfall" posts are always so condescending.

 

like, sure you DO care about the group, how they're doing, and how the problem is supposedly the music output… even though you admit you haven't listened to a single song by them since 2021.

 

MOTHER!

What "studied" means is an ability to search KTRL archives because all the answers were already in there.

 

It's funny how the people screaming "they have no evidence!!!!" Are the same ones crying for a year about bullying that didn't happen in any way, shape, or form. Bunch of vindictive stans who salivate at the idea of their lives being ruined while pretending to be objective/empathetic. Y'all really suck and it's not even like you're doing this over talented groups. Pathetic.

That's Kpop fans for you. They"ll moan about outfits and album shipments as mistreatment, but actual mistreatment is just overlooked as part of how it is to be a Kpop Idol.
