Why do male idols get away with more serious scandals than female idols?

  • Female idols "scandals" are just eating a strawberry or gaining weight yet they get insane hate, meanwhile recent male idols include sexual assault, disrespecting fans, distorting Korean history, smoking/hooking up with fans (nothing wrong but female idols like Jinni from Nmixx have to leave after caught dating). Wonyoung gets hate for standing in the center at airport photos but Enhypen can get away with fatshaming other members. Suju Heechul still gets many jobs on TV despite problematic statements yet female idols have to bow down and apologize for small mistakes. Male idols like Chen/Bobby can get married/have kids while female idols have to leave group after pregnant. Garam/Soojin has to leave groups after bullying scandals yet male idols with bullying scandals like Hyunjin/Taeyong are still loved. Why do male idols still get love after more serious scandals but female idols get hated for the smallest things?

  • Sexism?


    "Women belong in the kitchen, they should be owned like property and when they succeed and surpass men in a family or community, they are uncultured, rude, disrespectful and unworthy of respect."


    So they always need to be taught a lesson any time they make a mistake!

  • 1. its bec some overact on the issues. if u do that, they think all women are petty. like gg stans being overly edgy over everything & turns off people. its hard to sympathize when their fans are way too much . like u dont need to be rough & rude to show strength .


    2. Also, u knw that its d fans that hype the issues. bgs have bigger fd to protect them .Claiming its all gp are delusional- most gp dont probably care.


    3.im all for equality etc but even enhypen was dragged for months by kpoppies than usual over petty things that their seniors got away with. its the toxic culture in kpop & kpoppies are the worst breed

  • And why are u mentioning Enhypen only? there is a recent issue abt it and also their seniors did the same. The hypocrisy of kpoppies never ceases to make me laugh. just say ur a h8r and dont really care abt issues . 😂😂😂😂

  • Internalized misogyny which causes other women identifying people to subconsciously feel righteous about degrading and dehumanizing other women identifying people. Most men don't have this with certain exceptions: things that expose their fragile masculinity and things related to mandatory army conscription (in Korea)


  • Enhypen's issues are non-sense. they were never disrespectful to anyone. All the issues thrown at them are mere exaggeration of SN solo stans thinking he can go solo ( yeah, delusional akgaes! probably society reject and friendless irl!) and survive and gg stans hating all good looking men. Trying to be edgy and woke but failing to realize that they are bullying a minor who is just goofing around. On Jake, he is an adult, if he smokes and go out with girls so what? did he pay them? kpoppies even do au or ships same gender eventhough d idols never mentioned their preferences. it is worst breed of fans. western artists are not any better- they do drugs and blatantly display too much.



    and u think gg are less- wy was not dragged just for eating strawberries but for disrespecting seniors just bec she is more famous. all idols and other people who worked and got closed with enhypen are all praises of them. even bang chan said they are shy but very respectful. but yeah, they are being dragged for so many petty reasons including not liking pink color and blowing a cake for all of them. thats how stupid and ridiculous mostly gg stans are.

  • It depends on who the idol is. For example Irene and Lia are still in their groups.

    yeah? it depends on how strong ur fd is. even bp members were dragged relentlessly esp Jennie. whether its a bg or gg, if u have that x factor, ur fans will forgive u. haters will stay but as long as u hv a strong fandom that will continuously support u , u can bounce back. this also happens in Hollywood- Miley, Taylor, Britney, Madonna. They all had issues thrown at them whether its justified or not, its hard to dim their light. IMO, the brighter the star is, the more hate they will get. But all they have to do is to keep their fans happy and if they are talented enough gp( who usually dont give a fuck) will support them. The one doing the hating are also fans of other grps waiting for opportunity to drag their faves rival. Cancel culture is fake- they are all hiding behind woke culture but in reality they are worst than the idol they are cancelling.
