#a kpop band or something

[mishkakagehishka]

But it's like [voice of a girl who hasn't been in the kpop scene since she left twitter in 2020] is spring day still charting....

#i feel like kpop bands have definitely become more focused on billboard than melon last i was here #not to be That army but. something ab paving the way to be sure.

This is probably super irrelevant for a lot of people, but I can't express into words how happy it makes me to see ii (the whole band really) being genuine friends with the guys from Issues, well after their one tour together.

I see Josh and Sky interact with him all the time and ugh. My heart.

#listen #Issues was (and still is) one of my fav bands for many many years #it's heartbreaking what happened to them with the whole tc fiasco and i still can't believe they're really calling it quits #They're all incredibly accomplished musicians (Sky and Josh in particular) and to see them have genuine respect and admiration for ii is!!! #idk #something about musicians being friends and lifting each other up instead of petty drama. and the fact that they're so far apart as well #what's crazy is that at the time they toured together i was a massive issues fan BUT wasn't super keen on that album #so I kinda brushed them off (plus I was deep into the kpop world). if i had payed attention i could've known about ST much sooner #funny how things work #anyways. very happy for ii #sorry about the random rambling lmao #sleep token #sleep token ii #issues

I want to branch out from Stray Kids and listen to other kpop bands. Does anyone have any song recommendations? Please?

#kpop #i'm asking for specific songs because if it's just a band rec i will be overwhelmed by choices #also some of my favorite stray kids songs are gods menu back door thunderous case143 maniac ta awkward silence victory song and hellevator #also red lights and cover me when i need something a little less...pow! ya know #but also all of their discography

Lowkey expecting for some visual kei guys to appear in BLs some day. I mean I wouldn't be surprised.

#visual kei #bl drama #if kpop idols can do that vk bands could too #it would even make more sense #the fanservice of some vk bands was something kpop could never #lol

how many kpop generations do we have to go through for people to understand that maybe it's not okay to be hateful towards idols just because they aren't good at singing live. yeah yeah bad encore stage watch other videos and listen to different artists then

#yes this is about lsrfm yes Ive been a twice fan since 2018 #yes i wish they were trsined better yes i think its sad how kpop doesnt care about vocals anymore #these could be the most untalented idols ever (which they aren't!!) and it still wouldnt justify being mean and hateful everywhere #maybe realize that a piece of media isnt your taste and just look for something else #listen to other groups. try out bands. go to therapy and talk about howbyour parents' divorce is affecting you emotionally #but leave the artists alone eh #t

thinking about my relationship with fashion and being nonbinary and being black and I simply can't forgive the white queers for making me think the "default" nonbinary was just being skinny and masc

but also shoutout to all the nonbinary poc (especially black nonbines) that break that stigma. goes to show that even in the grander scheme of the alphabet mafia you still need your own communities to resonate with

#blu rambles #idk how long I've been nonbinary now but I know for the longest time and still now really #I've really been stuck in trying to fit that 'no features no curves' look to obtain 'perfect' androgyny #don't get me wrong I am still more masc leaning but the way my genetics are set up the hips are going to be doing their thing #but I really want to start wearing things OTHER than sweatpants bc I can't hide behind baggy clothes forever #BUT if I do wear baggy clothes I want to at least be more intentional with it and not look like I just threw something on #the aesthetic that has piqued my interest has been like 90s black fashion x kpop boy bands (which listen they overlap a lot) #so I wanna embrace that but also trying to do that while trying to be perceived as Not a Girl-- #Issa struggle out here but mayhaps one day I'll achieve what something #I barely know what I'm going on about anymore lol #I think I really need to sit down and figure out wtf nonbinary means to ME before I get in the mess that is everything else

[sinpiesinpie]

I can’t believe that Fromis 9 told their fans to bathe before seeing them. The entitlement lol

#fromis 9 #just do your job #kpop #girl bands #female idols #they are probably sweating while waiting to get up there to see them #this is not a great way to treat people #i have to deal with people who stink all the time and I would never ever say something like this #sinpiesinpie

[fauna-and-floraa]

my ass really never connected super bowl = skz wearing football outfits for the japan dome stuff bc like. the song is super bowl and the super bowl football game haha you get it? i was just like yes nice, i love a silly little sport costume

#and then i saw someone say something on tumblr and was like OH #that probably does make sense but i'd never willingly think about football sorry #anyway what sporting code should they wear costumes of next 🤔 #i vote cricket baggy whites like the giant knitted jumpers bc those are so fuckin stupid id' pay to see someone try make them boy band #friendly. itd be funny. also over a billion people are into cricket so we can get the kpop cricket market cornered #see im smart. im business minded. they should hire me.

[svturn-exe]

some bitches rly r just mean as fuck for 0 reason like damn go outside. go get laid if that's what you need

#svturn talks #anyway. i'm done (jokingly) apologizing for listening to the like 3 kpop groups i like bro #i just wanna listen to the fuckin music i like man #some of these mfs aren't even hating bc of the horrors of the idol industry or bc of people getting Way Too Weird With It #(looking at you rpf smut writers & kpop twt at large) #some ppl rly just hate it either bc it's in korean or because its ''for 15 year old girls'' #or both even. like pick a struggle already #r u a misogynist tht thinks things for teenage girls are shit simply because of the demographic/audience or are you racist pick one #if ur reason for disliking kpop is anything OTHER than how horrific the industry/idol culture is i want you to look into yourself #and think about why that is #i don't listen to 1d but it reminds me of how a lot of the ppl who were hating on one direction #were only hating bc it was ''for teenage girls'' instead of like. anything to do with like idfk #if a band member was a dickhead or killed a puppy or something idk shit abt those guys #but it's like. come on now

[nomaishuttle]

frankie if yr curious

#clothes not pictured bc its actually sooo stressful... #i had her sort of a jock bc i think thats cute but did you guys know its so hard to make a jock outfit look alt or goth or punk in any way. #also in my currently hypothetical band (its stressful... i wanted to have the original ghouls all in one band but. well ok end parenthesis #this is a whole seperate thought. so rpetend this wasnt ever in parenthesis ok. ik i want clawdeen to be bass ghoulia to be kehboard and #drankie 2 be drums. those all make sense for me #and then ive just got voice lead guitar and rhythm guitar. and well personally j dont see draculaura cleo Or lagoona playing guitar lol. #but also cleos umm kusic class she had a harp Which is strings... so thats something #but also idk if cleo would want to be In a band with other ppl since shes sort of. yk. famously #soo yeah im having trouble deciding. im currently trying to figure out the friend groups and im gonna maybe judt do friendgroup bands #instead. bc rn i kinda feel like that kpop tweet where its like they always go out of their way to include every member in fics Why hoseok #the bus driver all of a sudden... #thats me rn. i think mahbe theyll just be in different bands Lol. bc that makes more sense #also idk if its clear at all. and well also i switch between all th time. her hair doesnt make a ton of sense but its basically half up #half down. and depending on how im feeling its either judt a rly high short ponytail the sticky up bit #OR its a claw bun with the hair sticking up. and thats the sticky uppy bit. thats how my hair is 4 worm #FOR WORM? #sry. bt yeah so idk..

Okay but what if you care about Kpop not in a competitive way, but in a "Whoa they just had a guy backflip off the squad's arms" way.

It's like when I watch ice skating. I have no idea who these people are but that was a sick pirouette

Yeah, pretty much. I follow some skaters but I mostly watch ice skating to be amazed at what they do, and it's the same for Kpop!

I do have favorites in both and am happy when they do well, but I'm also super happy to see great performances from people that I don't really know much about.

So big mood, watching very skilled people pull off amazing feats of athletics and performance is fun, and I don't need to compare their entire scoring record to those of other professionals to enjoy the sport and/or art.

#also sorry anon that it took me a thousand years to reply to this. #i'm just going through my inbox again now #i think the original post i was making so many posts in reply to was one that i agree with more #than i originally thought #but the way it was worded kinda struck me like 'if you're not a Sports Person that is interested in following #sports teams the same way people follow tv then you're the one who's wrong #and the jocks were right actually' #and as someone who just never really cared who x team from y state was or how they did #it weirded me out to see someone posting on the website for nerds something along the lines of 'you guys should have jock interests' #looking at the post again it's less restrictive and more 'maybe making hating sports an identity is actually limiting yourselves' #'and sports include a lot more than you think' #which i do somewhat agree with #but the tone was rather combative. which op acknowledged later #ANYWAY to get away from getting in it again: #idc that much about who wins or how many times they win #whether it's kpop or skating or marching band or baseball #but i do care about what specifically they can do! #asks #anonymous

jhope doing this grungy rock rap is really something that can be so personal to me

#it’s everything i could’ve hoped for. and MORE #god fuck i am so into this shit y’all #he is the STANDARD #i fucking love him #i think in the back of my head i was hoping for something gritty like this. but the way he executed this concept was….. #absolutely immaculate #the eye makeup. the hair. the band #he is giving me absolutely everything and i cannot wait for this album #jhope #bts jhope #jhope jack in the box #rock music is really at the heart of my music interests #i was that emo middle schooler/high schooler #i listened to evanescence three days grace a day to remember breaking benjamin crown the empire bring me the horizon #bitch i LIVE. I LIVE for when kpop mixes with rock #this is my past self and my current self finally coming full circle #hobi the legend that you are today #how is it that bts always makes music exactly when i need it and exactly how I needed it to sound even though i didn’t know i needed it #this is such perfect timing #things are working out for once and i have this song to keep me company to bring me joy #i am so grateful he is expressing new sides of himself we’ve never seen because look how blessed we are #MORE is a fucking masterpiece and it’s literally flawless

As someone who originally comes from the 2000s emo rock scene, Xdinary Heros holds a very special place in my heart. Cannot begin to comprehend their upcoming comeback

#xdinary heroes #kpop #kpop bands #Kbands are just something else y'know #jun han #Gun-il #Jungsu #Jooyeon #Gaon #Ode #I'm originally a hardcore mychem stan (still am)

Interesting aspect about celebs like the Kardashians is how I barely ever see regularly people talking about them anymore- Dont get me wrong I’m sure they have an assload of fans still but overwhelmingly when I see them trending on social media it’s news outlets/entertainment “reporters” talking about them and then the stories are promoted by whatever platform, it’s not actually regular users and that kinda tells me all I need to know.

#like if one of them says something stupid people will clown but generally #i dont see people talking about them #like theres so many 'celbrities' that just get promoted by media and its like theyre trying to convince us people care #more than they do #like with kpop i know for a fact those are real ass people being insane about the musicians #doesnt make their behaviour any better but i at least know they arent like being paid and promoted to be wild about whatever boy band #with a lot of 'influencers' its literally just like US Weekly and twitter throwing them at us

i have to know what u guys think of the new rainbow high kpop band

#its from their shadow high series so its an EVIL kpop band #i like their cool cat mascot but like nothing else really #but then again i dont like most rainbow high dolls so like. the bias is definitely there #they're called like the neon shadows or something? idrk
