☁️I Dunno☁️
*just a lil comfort fic with your choice of idol🩷

"What's the matter?"
Blankly staring into space, you perk up a little once you hear your caregiver's voice. Giving a tiny smile, you try your best to explain your feelings as you feel yourself slipping into little space.
"Mmmm... I dunno."
Your focus shifts to the wall behind him.
"Felt ok one minute then I didn't."
The smile slips off of your face as tears well up in your eyes.
"I dunno what's wrong."
Warm arms encircle your fragile body and you can faintly feel a kiss being pressed to your forehead.
"You don't have to know what's wrong sweetheart, it's okay."
"M'here for you."

Scenario #5:
You pulled Chaewon into a deep embrace and let her cry. It was better to let her voice her feelings than to force her to think positively. The two of you remained there for a bit and eventually began your walk home again.
Before Chaewon stepped into her home, she turned around and called out to you.
"Y/n! Thank you." She jogged to you and gave you a quick peck on the cheek. Then I walked into her home, leaving you standing there, stunned. Did you just grow closer to your crush? All you could do is begin walking home in a daze, replaying your interaction with Chaewon.
Your thinking didn’t get to last more than a night, as it was the day of the battle of the bands! All tensions were high as you walked into the preparation room with your bandmates. Passing by several bands, you wondered if you could’ve been in any of them if you had chosen a different band audition.
"Hey now, don’t think about leaving us, okay?" Joked Chaewon. It’s like she could read your mind.
You planned on making another snarky remark as a response, but you had been suddenly bombarded with loud yelling. It was Kazhua and Yunjin.
"No, it’s your fault. Kazhua, I asked you 10 million times to pack extra string; can you not listen?"
"I swore I did! I didn’t think my strings would break anyway."
The two of them went back and forth until Sakura stepped in.
"Hey, now’s not the time to argue! Kazhua, ask around and see if anyone has an extra pack of strings. Yunjin, step outside and calm down. We go on for 10 minutes; we need to be focused."
Everyone nodded, and the room was awkwardly quiet. You could tell this whole ordeal stressed your bandmates out, but you were more concerned about how Chaewon was feeling. After all, she had voiced to you her concerns about losing this competition. You turned to look at her and could see her biting her nails with a stressed look on her face.
How can you calm everyone’s nerves?
A. Give a motivational speech.
B. Sing 'Downpour' by I.O.I
C. Tell a joke.

Hi! As a fellow Humanities Person (sociologist) I've been really enjoying your critical (in an academic sense!) analysis of kpop & the Korean entertainment industry! I'm curious- how do you think social media has impacted kpop? I remember you said in an answer to a previous ask that aespa's choreo seems to have been created with TikTok in mind. And I feel like social media has made it even more difficult for idols to have a private life- like NCT is posting like behind the scenes videos OF behind the scenes videos and I can't help but to think that it seems like there's hardly a moment in their lives where they're NOT being filmed.
thank you! i'm not an authority by any measure but it is fun to speculate/extrapolate and talk about these things with people!
hmm. actually i don't think social media has made it that much more difficult for idols to have a private life, at least in the way that i think you're talking about. yes absolutely it has made idols need to be more careful, bc everyone has a phone now, but for things like behind the scenes content, that's just still just work. they would have been there even if there was no cameras, because things like recording or dance rehearsals or other content filmings are all work hours, not their private life. they know full well that their job is to be a public figure, so when they show up to do work, no matter what it is or if it's being filmed, that's work. has social media made it so that they have to do more things that they didn't have to before? yes absolutely, but i don't think it's that big of an issue for a lot of them. most idols really do care about the communication they have with their fans and showing them more the parts of the process is something that is actually interesting (in my opinion at least), much more so than just getting selfies. i think accounts like the shinee managers (shinee_atoz) are a great way to give a bit more personal context to the official content that comes out (which is what key said abt it when he pitched it) and it doesn't infringe on idols' (or the managers!!) private lives at all.
in terms of aespa's choreo being made for tiktok, that's just going back to the old methods from first and second gen to get a song to go viral because of the point choreo/dance moves. and it did work, next level was probably the most recognizable choreo last year (other than rollin, which was actually old school viral). in fact the whole doing choreo challenges on tiktok is just an evolution of the whole reason point choreo exists in the first place.
