Just the title really, but it’s been so long since the last BLACKPINK comeback I feel like I need to warn and set the context for newer Kpop fans. This community is predictable af.
There are a few points to this:
- This community has no chill when it comes to the mega groups, and I think BLACKPINK especially has to deal with a lot of sexism and misogyny on top of the typical challenges kpop groups face.
- What the GP wants and what ifans want are two entirely different things. How You Like That was dragged through the mud on this sub for being too “TEDDY” sounding (ie, EDM), but it was a massive hit.
- Even when a BP song does everything the kpop community wants (ie sung chorus, more “pink” pop vibe, ie Lovesick Girls), they ignore it and pretend it doesn’t exist or flopped
- A lot of people hate BLACKPINK simply for being as popular and “privileged” as they are.
So yeah, if you’re a Blackpink fan or just casually interested in this upcoming comeback, I’m just warning you. There WILL be a windstorm of negativity about it regardless, and you shouldn’t let it bother you.
If you’re into it just enjoy it for what it is, and don’t get too upset by the people complaining. It is their right after all to voice their opinions.
