The worst thing popular group stans can do is pretend they are satisfied

eehh

I get what you mean, but you have to remember it's their life. If people want to pretend they are satisfied then let them, it ain't hurting nobody

I mean, peer pressure is a problem, however if people want to succumb, oh well. This really isn't the worst example. Plus, sometimes people have rose colored glasses on for anything their fave releases.

sadly, it is a part of Kpop fan's self defense system.

yeah i pretended that I liked one comeback from my ult group when everyone else hated it.

Also remember that everyone does not share the same sentiment about a song. Music taste can be different, so you not liking a song does not define to everyone not liking that song so there can be people who genuinely like the song.

I'm glad we have a community where we can welcome both viewpoints. Some people do like everything an artist or group puts out and that's fine.

It's healthy to evaluate what the opposing viewpoint is. Otherwise, only hearing out the most popular one could end up in an "Emperor's New Clothes" scenario.

I agree. I think it's unhealthy to completely devote yourself so much to a group that you sacrifice your personal taste, opinions, and morals for people who don't even know you exist.

• if I don't like one of my bias's song, which my ults are GD and Suga/Agust D so they have a lot of music, rap isn't my thing most of the time so there are a lot of their songs I don't really care for, but if I don't like them I don't say anything unless I'm asked and if I am I won't lie and say I like it
• if others criticize I won't say anything if it is an opinion unless I feel they are missing some info that may change their perspective, but if they criticize something that is false, if it is a valid one I'll reply and try to correct the false info, and if it something stupid I say my bias doesn't need such a do do bird as a fan

That's why I stan T-ara, where every single one of their releases have been a certified bop

no peer pressure here

First, I don't stream
