What's the biggest kpop controversy that you couldn't be bothered to care about?

Burning sun

I think many of them, mostly because it wasn't with people I cared about or because the reason of the controversy was stupid in my emo and gothic opinion

who's dating who

Scandals about idols smoking w33d lol It's so normalized where I am and my state it's legal. I get that Korea has different laws, but yeah. I don't care about that.

anything that deals with bullying. Honestly I think Koreans set themselves up when an Idol is a bully past & present. Human Beings aren't perfect.

Oh, that is a controversial stance. Though I think Burning Sun got so complicated so quickly that, unless you were invested enough to follow it very closely, it's easy to get the details confused.

there was so many different versions of the truth. So many people envolved and got stained by this. To the point it brought up also that group chat that was so bad. I think that the was worst and some didn´t even paid for that

Yeah, sometimes I think that stuff gets taken too far. I understand if it's like, holding people to account for something that's just, idk, six weeks in the past, but drudging up stuff from a decade or more ago is a little... like yes, children are kind of jerkfaces when they're 12. Yes, it sucks if you struggled to make friends then, but that doesn't mean all your classmates need to remain unemployed for all of time to atone for that.

Like I only support cancelling Idols who are bullies if they're bullies currently not something that happened when they were 13 and they're 29 now.

dating scandals.

But recently also "bullying" scandals because i feel half the time people can make things up or play the victim

and the funny thing is the ones who are cancelling an Idol for bullying those same ones doing the cancelling are bullying as well

burning sun and ilhoon weed scandal, among other things that aren't memorable enough to remember.

I only care about having opinions on controversies involving idols I care about, directly or indirectly. Other than that, I just watch, most of the time

None of them? I literally don’t care about a single one of them. I prefer to pass commentary instead on people and how they react to certain issues because IMO that’s what has more real impact within my near vicinity.

For example if someone is using a scandal to be misogynistic or bigoted, I’d rather debate that than defend OR condemn a celeb from Korea.
