Confessions that will revoke your fandom card - Anon edition

Quote from Seared Creamy Duck (870)

That's a nice theory. Is it working for you?

So far yes. My Spotify personal playlists don’t include kpop tracks.

that's not a confession that will revoke your fandom card. if anything, they probably love you more for saying this.

good kpop music is out there. just gotta keep an open mind to it instead of being closed off due to whatever existing ideas you have. being open-minded will take you far with music taste and everything else in life.

but of course, if you just don't care about discovering new music, that's ok too. i'm just saying you probably got into BTS for a reason... because you decided to be open-minded enough to give them a chance. if you're concerned about disloyalty, you can still appreciate other kpop acts without stanning them.

it’s true there is good music everywhere. But I’ve heard more bad than good kpop songs. And if I want to listen to a particular kpop song, I just use YouTube.

The visuals in kpop help to consume the music better and I don’t really care for my YouTube algorithm too. I can just clear watch history and reset everything.

I’ll just ignore your “close minded comment”. I don’t know what I said that made you make such a snide remark. It’s uncomfortable.

Obviously I got into BTS for a reason. I’m a very picky person. I liked their music the first time I heard it. Then I thought that maybe that’s how all kpop sound like. But I was very disappointed. Overall the whole genre is not something I vibe with.

Snowdrop was too boring and long for me to care week to week, I only finish it now and Jisoo rock it, but the show only started to get good after the hostage situation blow up. And probably the show itself wouldn't had blown if Jisoo didn't acted on it.

BTS should have new people working with them for production, concepts, styling and MV, i feel like they used to put more effort into their work before bts was really big as they are today like comparing their stuff from 2015-2018 to the most recent ones you can see they are... not that inspired or creative in comparison, how i wish they worked with a new MV director other than Lumpens the guy seems to be having a creative block for some years now.

Blackpink first full album was underwelming imo, i still think square up and ktl are better than the album music-wise.

Pdogg is probably the most overrated hybe producer right now. Bts needs to get rid of him and start working with world class producers. I've no issues with mvs my main concern is music only.

BTS need new producers. Pdogg is taking evrything for granted and giving bts garbage. He knows he's their main pd and armys are gonna eat up whatever he gives. Hybe needs to treat bts as worldclass act.

I don't own any of Mamamoo's albums, merchs, or anything. But I do have majority of their songs on my list, and follow almost all contents they created. Im not a "true" fan. I only provide moral support, since Peppermint Chocolate days.

Moonbyul was NOT a vocalist. Fans been blasting that sht like no tomorrow, like to validate that MMM is a vocalist group. THEY ARE. You don't need Moonbyul to justified it. She wasn't confident in her singing before, so she worked hard and practiced hard, and now she's more confident in singing, good for her. But yall gotta stop with that dumb narrative that MMM has 4 vocalist, mind you, this statement has been said way before Moonbyul was confident in her singing ability.

They're very talented in what they do, and is great at it too. Their older songs were great, the newer ones not so much. But it was expected given the trajectory and direction of the group.

Fans wanted Wheein to leave the crappy company, but now they are missing interaction with MMM members. JFC. How do they not see this happening.

I actually never agreed with some other Once calling TWICE an 'all visuals group', I only find a few members visually stunning, while the others are just ok. Not ugly, but commonly pretty in a more average K-pop idol way.

I also never believed Tzuyu had what it takes to be called an It girl. She's missing something, she isn't on the level of a Jennie, Lisa, Irene, Hwasa or Wonyoung.

If anybody, Nayeon or Sana would be far likelier It girls. But JYP ignored their potential and let it go to waste.

the gaslighting...

let the girl listen to whatever she wants. no wonder bts fans hate other kpop fans

I am a blink but I admit besides Jisoo the other girls don't really care that much about their fans. Like they definitely love their fans and they are grateful but yeah they act like they are too busy to even reply to one weverse post.

Soyeon's English pronunciation makes me cringe. Not just the Tomboy English verse which would not get me cancelled, but "I'm a Quinn!", "Call it a flax!" I just need literally any English speaker to be there and coach her a little bit before she records.

Recording sessions for KDA, English pronunciation included, were directed by Riot Games staff. So if you have a complaint, address it to Riot.

I wish BP would do more for blinks other than post sponsored crap on IG or them living the high life

I've never bought my faves album. I feel like albums/ photocards are waste of money. I've been gifted one though and the photos were gorgeous!

i still believe Jennie was kind of Lazy. I know she twisted her ancle bad and that she has low stamina. But she only had to perform 3 songs and go to rest.

I remember a video with Lisa playing arround with Rosé. They were pretending to give massages to each other, and nobody noticed that Rosé was wearing a casquet on her foot

and Rosé is really petite, but she never, NEVER did something like Jennie on stage.

She is still a person and doesn`t deserve hate, but called out for lazy dancing...oh yes.

In years of being a kpop fan, I never spent money on kpop

This!!

-NCT 2021 should have never happened and Universe is the worst produced full NCT album yet. Was the most cohesive, sure, but doesn't make the songs great. OK is cheesy and aged fast, Birthday Party is a mess, Vroom is... whatever it is, Sweet Dream and Good Night are cookie cutter ballads, Beautiful is boring and Let's Play Ball is all over the place. How can this be compared to Resonance and Empathy when both were carried by the two best NCT titles ?

-A lot of NCT members are fillers and that's fine. The group needs their visuals to sell albums and photocards.

-No, a stand alone group made only of the original U lineup wouldn't have been extremely popular. I get that their solo stans are bitter that they don't have EXO level of popularity despite SM push but BTS ruling over kpop and the gp losing interest in boygroups would have made this impossible even without NCT messy concepts.

-Jaehyun is a lot more talented than Haechan and has more solo potential. I'm sure SM will eventually debut Haechan as a soloist but I won't be surprised if the results are disappointing.

-Miss me with the "poor NCT members who aren't SM favorites are jobless and unappreciated". They sure make more money than those who cry crocodile tears for them. Let’s not forget that many of them were born golden spoons too.
