Survival of the fittest? Lol it’s human nature everyone wants others to do well just not better than them (their favs in this case) or it becomes an issue…

I beg yall to touch some grass

There can be multiple successful groups lol

KPOP has been pushed as a competition. If you create the narrative of competition, that means you have to have a winner and a loser. People treat it almost like a sports team. You pick your team and for your team to "win", someone has to lose.
It's not even about just listening to the music anymore for some people. And people can't help their attraction to the Us versus Them narrative.

kpop stans are ridiculous
there can be multiple successful groups why are they so obsessed with competition goddamn

pushed by the FANS
kpop is a music genre i need people to stop treating it like a sports competition

it's not just gg stans I've seen bgs stans say more vile shit. just yesterday bg stans were sending all kinds of death threats and hoping another male idol gets covid and dies just because he said he loves himself. Gg stans are horrid as well.

because when your favs charting well, it will reflect on how well the fans is doing IRL, the delulu, that's the only explanation why they are so determined on rankings, charts, sales, placements, etc.
Braggin rights. My favs is better, so therefore I am superior. They don't care what the artists does, they just want the numbers, you know those fans aren't doing it for the artists, they doing it for themselves

you summed it up perfectly

I guess it's boredom and jealousy that fans do that?

lots of people want to be the best... takes fun out of it, right?

no matter what happens to the groups those people will not even be the best
they will be the same self they are behind their screen wether their bias group sells 1M or 30k copies

its because gg stans are often even more misogynstic than bg gg
female bg stans can be vile af, but most of the time its towards any idol they consider less worthy than their oppa, but for some reason gg stans think they are better for stanning women, when they are the ones most hateful towards other women who aren't their faves. they seem to think that stanning women excuses them to openly hate on other ggs
it's peak fake feminism
-
you’re genuinely ridiculous and pathetic
wishing on the downfall of two high schoolers because their company is shit? seriously? you think they went to starship themselves and asked them to rig the show?
grow the fuck up
whatever you think IVE won’t flop and Wonyoung’s popularity is off the charts.. meanwhile a certain someone is bitter behind their screen

this is exactly it
they think they have a pass because they stan a woman. pitting women against each other is the opposite of feminism they’re rooted in internalized misogyny. that and projection ( they think if their group does well THEY as a fan are superior to another group’s fan which is peak lifeless behavior )

It's so wild to me that every time a big group does well, it's always 'OMG THEY PAVED THE WAY' and then you cut to another group doing something similar or doing just as well and you get comments like 'OMG THEY COPIED THEM, THEY DID IT FIRST'. Well shit, who the hell did they paved the way for then? Can't their juniors or colleagues have some of those pie? isn't paving the way exactly that?
Scientist really need those KPOP brains for studies.

I’m not going to blame middle schoolers for Kaeun and Chowon going back to nugudom and I hope you’re aware you’re incredibly childish for blaming children about something they had no control over
I beg you to touch some grass.. grow up a little..

So many weird, odd ideas in this thread.
People assuming gg stans are only males that are into fake feminism/wokeism and thats why theyre attacking other ggs.
People assuming that only Big 3 stans attack other ggs and they only attack non-Big 3 attacks.
People assuming that if you want justice for some girl idols or groups you must automatically hate the other girl idols or groups.
It's entertaining, I want to read more

Pretty sure that wasn't even about Iz*One. Most Knetz were were suspecting X1 members of being the trainees. You're straight up delusional too. Only 2/12 Iz*One members were revealed to have been rigged and I assure neither was Wonyoung or Yujin who consistently ranked high from the beginning of the show.

who said it was all men? internalized misogyny is something that applies to women LOL
women pitting themselves against each other is a thing
also the last argument. if you’re talking about that one person that linked a korean article I promise you hoping IVE flop because an anonymous person supposedly said a member was informed about the rigging, something that’s 1. not even confirmed 1. they were children so even if they knew wtf would they do… is not justice
it’s being plain stupid

Exactly this
Yujin only left top 12 once in the whole show
Wonyoung never left it and even ranked #1 once

I had to quote you again because although I can't read Korean I can read names, but I clicked on the article to be sure that it was about X1, and after my phone translated sure enough "an anonymous trainee, under pressure from Starship" is literally from Produce X 101. The only thing this proves is that Starship isn't an entirely honest company but is otherwise irelevant to Wonyoung and Yujin themselves. How are you going to accuse them of something that didn't even happen during their show?

lmao, people felt called out it seems..
internalised misogyny isn't limited to female gg stans (many female bg stans have it too), but the difference is that they seem to think they can't be labeled misogynistic bc they stan women

It's more disgusting that u r wishing downfall on them.

I will make several points below that are not exactly in perfect order, but I'm just gonna say this: If you get it, you get it and if you don't, you don't.
1. GGs have a much harder time remaining relevant as they rely more on GP (general public) support rather than dedicated fans when compared to BGs. And the GP is fickle and high-key misogynistic.
2. GGs can't serve prostitute fan service in the same way that many BGs do because they would be called out on it, degraded, and considered (insert misogynistic words that start with s,w, etc.) to retain a dedicated women attracted male stan base.
3. The majority of male GG fans are gay men and they treat women in the entertainment industry the way straight men treat sports teams.
4. GGs have a smaller fanbase due to the fact that the majority of K-pop fans are men attracted women (and girls) so it's natural BGs have a bigger fanbase which allows them to be successful without worrying that much that the ppl funding their main source of income will throw them out like a used toy they got bored of.
All of this means that the GG scene is much more competitive due to the nature of their fanbase and the fact that they attract more hate not only from other GG fans but from BG fans as well. Their supporters know that and are usually more cutthroat when it comes to defending their faves online and these fans usually resort to dirtier tactics and harsher words for other GGs.

Oh, like that. But when hearing 'mysogynistic', 'sexist' and 'fake feminism' most people will think of men, not women, because more often than not it's men excelling in those.
I only posted because I found a number of posts hugely entertaining due to the ideas and viewpoints represented

This is actually a good post. Good points.
Not sure if these are actually the main (or only) explanation for the differences in treatment, but it certainly would explain some things.
