Things That Shocked Me When I First Got Into Kpop

kpop fans are mostly toxics but we gotta give it to them for their devotion and support for their idols

i have seen western artists' and indian artists' fans have streaming goals thou

For me, It was the Stan twitter language.

Maybe I don't scroll the comments far enough. Maybe I just watch the hit song's MV. But I just see like that after I got into Kpop. So I think it was the now-Kpoper that started it in their Wpop faves

I think its more noticeable in twt and YT and might be recent too seeing how kpop artists break charts with views and streams

I was gonna call you grumpy because of that grumpy emoticon trademark of yours. But then I see Rose pics in your profile

U can call me grumpy if u want

Quote from NotOnceNorThrice

I can't if you have that Rose pics

U a blink??

It was Shipping, Wattpad, Fancafes, Stan Twitter and DC Gallery for me.

Edit: I forgot the Fans, THE FANS!

Quote from NotOnceNorThrice

Never been. They got me into Kpop, had liked them, but I can't like them as you like them. I do watch their MVs and some of variety shows. When they appear in Running Man being the latest. Doesn't have to be a Blink, a man can never resist the beauty of a woman

Who u stan then?

Mine was the variety shows where the hosts make them do aegyo. Donny and Conny in particular.

How fcking racist both kpop idols and kpop fcking “fans” can be

Fcking rat ass ho ass “fans”

one of the things that schocked me when i got into kpop was the content - western artists release music and dip, maybe go on ellen show and thats it, but in kpop groups promote their songs on music shows, have their own programmes, do lives regularly and care about entertainment (i mean - they're entertnainers).

shipping idols who (forget about having any chemistry) probably never even interacted irl.

The obsession, for some fans it’s their whole life.
