im sorry im not being intellectually honest enough with someone making fun of young womens' "horseteeth" because they *gasp* dared to steal your megastar millionaire kpop faves' "concept" and continue to exist with an active career? there's a sad person here and its certainly not me

The concept belongs to the company. Its funny how every company keeps recycling their groups' identity pretty much every generation but all of a sudden is a problem when HYBE did it.

 

2NE1>BP>BM

 

People were upset that Cube decided to debut CLC with a cute concept when all of their trainee years they were training to become the 4minutes replacement. The group actually started having sucess when they did with Hogoblin

 

 

IVE is the most boring group we had in kpop since GFriend

 

 

I AM is a bop tho

The fanchant, the inane youtube comments, it's all kinda peculiar.  And so is Chanelle having worse hair than her shoes.

NewJeans were barely a year old and Blackjacks vs Blinks was like the nastiest fanwar in kpop ever 

 

The things those people said about Park Bom would land them with criminal charges in the age of agencies going after western fans too.

She said she will be promoting only as "Kim Yerim" from now on. 

 

Blitzway is primarily an acting agency, so I don't know how likely it will be that we will see any music released while she's there. 

Though I'm guessing if RV ever have a comeback under SM, they will use "YERI". 

 

 

Actors always use their real names in acting projects because it sounds more... prestigious

 

Like even Gaga used Stefani in her movies

I know, JOY used her real name too for acting projects.

 

But in the context of solo music, it's unclear if she will promote as "Kim Yerim" or "Yeri". Personally, idk if she will release any music at this company. It's very acting focused, but not impossible.

 

Krystal also joined Blitzway (formerly H&) after leaving SM, but never released any solo project. I don't think it's a focus for this company. 

 

One positive thing is that the company announcement referenced purple, Yeri's color in RV. 

 

I also refuse to acknowledge Gnarly for the Tesla mention. Not in this climate

Claiming I have "shitty takes", when you're literally known as the ATRL user with this most absurd takes

Actually, 4th gen is significantly bigger than 3rd gen.

 

Aespa > Red Velvet

BabyMonster & LSF & NJ > BP

ITZY & NMIXX & IVE > TWICE

G-IDLE & KISS of Life & I*ZONE > All other 3rd gen groups

 

It's not even close. While 4th gen boy groups lag because they can't get hits and 3rd gen had like six SM boy groups, 4th gen has Stray Kidz, TXT, ENHYPEN & RIIZE.

Aespa can't ever close the gap in streaming because global streaming is manipulated by autoplay. YG does Spotify autoplay and YouTube payola, which SM doesn't do. In terms of album sales:

 

Album Sales:

TWICE - 13,835,537 Korean / 4,146,991 Japan

IVE - 10,464,401 Korean / 498,239 Japan

Aespa - 8,757,524 Korean / 153,828 Japan

NewJeans - 8,421,068 Korean

BlackPink - 6,639,468 Korean / 223,739 Japan

But everyone knows Spotify is all fraud. Taylor Swift at her peak, in her most successful singles era, was bombing on Spotify (1989). But when she switched to Republic who deals with Spotify payola in terms of extreme playlisting and Discovery Mode, she suddenly had record-breaking success. 
 

Like congrats to YG, but YG was a company known for fraud on domestic digital charts. Obviously they're going to do better there than companies that don't commit fraud.

Like be serious

Even when they're wrong there's some truth to it that people don't want to acknowledge and differing perspectives that are backed up by actual statistics instead of kpop reddit dogma are actually extremely valuable. Can't say the same about your blatant trolling. You have this nasty habit of trying to call literally any of the SM sheep who don't just ignore you the worst __ in the base every couple of weeks. It's absolutely nasty and I still don't know how you're allowed to post here after the things you have said to @Odette Violet without ever apologizing to my knowledge.

You constantly insert yourself into my conversations with others, trying to bait me into reacting or get my attention 24/7, especially by engaging with posts related to me. If you've noticed, I rarely respond to you, despite your failed repeated attempts to stir up drama and provoke me. I don't mention you or acknowledge you unless I have to, it's almost always you quoting or tagging me first.

You take ATRL way too seriously and really need to take a step back. Holding grudges and playing the victim doesn't suit you, especially when you're the one who regularly engages in cyberbullying on this platform.

And honestly, you should be the last person accusing others of targeting users. We've all seen your questionable behavior here, going after multiple users and saying horrible stuff to me, Zack, and others. Just because you constantly rebrand and change your name in here doesn't mean that your history in here get's erased

Part of me getting unbanned from this thread last year was statistically proving that you post more about my favs than your own, even during a cb week.

This is a very strange reversal considering you called somebody "known as the ATRL user with the most absurd takes" and are now having meltdowns when it's pointed out how insane that is to keep doing this to users in here.

Do I troll the 3 remaining Jaws fans? Yes. Have I ever called @Zack a "demonic person" or "the antichrist" as you have seriously done to others with zero punishment? No. I have called their views on a single subject nonsensical and contrary to the written statements from all parties and cheekily used terms like J-Anon in reference to it. The butt of the joke is almost always on the libel publishing chanteuse. We have had excessively heated arguments before but I don't just @ him to call him stupid like you do to others.

 

What I have done though on more than one occasion, however, is DM users to apologize(including yourself) when I think I did cross a personal line or to even try to diffuse situations that don't involve me where I see miscommunication turn nasty.

 

 

Nobody with 10k+ posts on ATRL doesn't take this too seriously. What a dumb accusation to make.

Lying, gaslighting, and manipulating, just like always. The real reason why you can't stand me is because you know I've seen right through you. Now move on

That's right walk it back. You know you can't direct quote because you have no leg to stand on, troll.
