PSA : you don’t need to establish that your favs are “not like other girls” to justify their success

Quote from godkingteshub

This ain't the first time bg stans casually try to downplay girl groups. I've seen it happen more often than the other way around

Yes

I just know everyone's basic except my favs, have a good day

Quote from Hopeful09

in my opinion, if anyone is doing anything innovative in kpop, it's the huge body of behind the scene workers who work on the concept, music and help manage and train the idols, idols in gneral just get handed the material and have no creative controle whatsoever, it's sad because I can see some idols wanting to show a piece of themselves to the world but can't.

This has me thinking, but no wonder kpop fans put so much emphasis on companies. We all know most of idols don't have big control over their music and acknowledging company is like acknowledging people who worked on their music, I guess?

I hope you read the part where I said the phrase is for irony and this is both bg and gg

And I hope your IQ is not as low as teshub

But i mean my expectation is low this IS AKP.

still some other users here -bg fans for what i can understand from their profile (badges, signatura, blabla) are using this as an excuse to shade gg... maybe you should try to talk to them instead of me...or talk about my IQ

Mamamoo IS built different though. Just facts

Quote from godkingteshub

But when it's "my faves are not like other men" then that's TOTALLY valid?

It wasnt valid until you said this, but now yes. My favs are better than every living and dead man, and better than any man that will ever walk this bitch of an earth

Quote from ISaidISaid

They’re making pop music 😭

Some pop music is better than others. And some acts are more consistent than others like <insert your favs names because you like their music>

But no one is reinventing the wheel.

There is music that’s groundbreaking and innovative and it’s not kpop.

Ok anyway that’s all I wanted to say.

I mostly agree with this point of view, but there are still some exceptions (very little of course). For example, whether we like the person and his music or not, it's hard to deny the huge impact that Gdragon & BIGBANG had in kpop. He is the precursor of many codes found in "modern" kpop. There really is a before and an after.
