Do u think kpop artists believe the stuff the fandom are most proud about their faves?

The ''quality over quantity'' for BP is copium at its finest lmao

Not that their songs are bad,but like...they just lazy man,face it

well it depends on the artist?

I think majority of their real thoughts are extremely censored by themselves and their company so hard to make any conclusions.

Quote from tetetete

We can always make conclusions based on how we perceive them 😆

I think fandoms project their own thoughts on the groups enough already

It's freaking annoying

Specially when the fandom pretends to hear nothing when the artists contradicts their narrative

Quote from fortuna

bts try to keep themselves grounded, humble and they are very smart

but my boys are also human,

so get them mad enough and it'll come out

Even when they 'brag' or 'flex' it's still in a joking manner or in a very humble way 🤣

I see a lot of fans like this in Kpop. I think it's their way to escape from their reality and all their frustrations irl. Like, the stans saying X idol is being mistreated by not having many lines but then later on that idol revealed that he;she specifically requested that because the song doesn't suit his/her voice. Even after revealing that, fans will still twist the narrative somehow. So many instances of fans projecting. And what's worse is fans controlling the narrative to force their faves to do what they want like acting, solo album or anything to satisfy their whims. It's the entitlement.

I have a theory

Fans blur the line between the artist existence and themselves in their heads

It also explain why they think of achievements as sth so personal

On the other hand idols might also start parroting what their fans say to avoid hate

I'll just speak in general. The idol industry cannot escape this as having personal connections with fans are part of their job. Kpop needs parasocial relationship to profit and have invested fans. Idols are on the receiving end, but they are not much of a victim either cause they co-signed this. Even sometimes they overdo it.

What I said is already known but just wanted to share my piece lol

If it's true then yes, if it's a lie not only does that group know it (even if they don't say it) but so does every other group in the industry. Some fans be having their faves out here looking like straight clowns to their peers.

H.O.T had a hard time believing they had 8 million fans in China. Unless SM counted 8 million different people, who knows for sure.

BTS are the First for many things and everyone knows it including their fellow colleagues in the industry so why wouldn’t they know that too?
