ofcourse blinks isnt angel here i admit that and onces have every right to defend twice.. but try to put the fanwar aside and take a look at the normal reaction from non-fans (not blinks or onces).. most of user here (i repeat, most of the user not mentioning any fandom) really downplaying SEA fans. Its already 2023 and people still like "they are JUST famous on SEA"as if being a Southeast Asian fan matter less than being US fans. Im not gonna talk about things that is not happening (US stadium tour that prolly will never happen imo) but BLACKPINK is known to have a multiple sold out stadium tour in any other country, even Arab country where any musician rarely went there for touring.. and now with their Europe and LaTam shows but since its not in US somehow its not consider as a big achievement ? People really don't count success from SEA or China as legitimate and thinks success from the 'right" places like Japan and USA are correct in 2023
edit : before everyone coming and say "blink stir the fanwar firsrt" THIS ISNT ABOUT THE FANWAR OR ONCES (ofcourse onces have every right to defend twice so i will let it slide) but try to go to every thread and look at the reply and reaction from other fandom then you will see how they look at SEA fans and how "little" the sea achievements for them just because itsjust on Bangkok or Singapore and not on New York or LA.
