How are you prepping for your retirement from being a K-pop stan?

I've already been into this shit since like 2009, I feel like I would be a grandma and listening to Genie still lol

Dying

Once Twice disband i will be off for good. Then i will focus my energies on indie bands in spanish.

I think I will still follows and listen to my favs even after I got my lil family later on.

The one thing that I might do less and less is maybe being in the fandom itself, since I will have more things to be attended.

Listening to music had been one of my respite so it helps me to going through the day (since kids and family drama could be really really exhausting)

when my favs disband. I only Stan three groups and I'm satisfied with Twice, Blackswan, and Psychic Fever from Exile tribe.

I stan mostly 4th gen groups so I have a long way to go before it's time to move on from KPOP.

Eh, but I kinda see myself being 80 still liking KPOP, I don't think I'll ever retire from it.

I always think about it and atp I think I wont leave even though it feels silly as hell for me sometimes since I'm an adult. But I realized, besides music it's also a hobby and I met a lot of fun and nice people through kpop, laughed a lot too, so I dont think i'll quit. If I do, it will be very natural just like how we lose interest in hobbies we used to have as a child.

You will become that twitter meme where a kpop stan lock their grandma in jail unless their fav will have a comeback or doing tours at their city. (You will be the grandma )

Become a virtual idol stan

# stan heartsteel

have multiple hobbies so that if one no longer takes my interest

move onto something else...

It's just music... Then again I don't really consume k- content unless it's BP CB season

fact that i didnt know heejin had a solo comeback probably means im semi retired already

I don’t stan any group. Most content I find boring, but I love the music. K-pop isn’t even my favorite hobby (watching/following sports is).

it'll be 2030. when a newly debut girl group gets a pak. ill show them a screenshot of ive PAK and write an essay oh how they won the 4th generation war. it wasn't easy but in the end no one beat after likes ULS peak hence winning korea and the national gg title.

I’m already 90% retired lol. I haven’t listened to or kept up kpop much in the last year (i barely know anything about 4G, I don’t even know who’s popular currently) since SNSD have been inactive outside a few individual stuff. I havent been on the forums, I think I was completely out of kpop for may and June because I was addicted to Zelda TOTK lol.

Dude when I said I was addicted that’s what I literally meant. I was playing it every single day, after I finished work I immediately wanted to go home and play. It was the sole thing on my mind, I had a problem lol. Ended up putting in 350+ hours, the longest I’ve ever played a single player game.

It is simply the greatest game ever made.
