QUESTIONNARE FORM:
What group/artist is your current 'ultimate' group/artist?
How many hours a day do you spend consuming K-POP content from your current 'ultimate' group/artist?
How long have you 'stanned' your current 'ultimate' group/artist?
2 years? End of May, 2019.
What compelled you to your current 'ultimate' group?
Them as people, their music and the fans. There's twenty three of them and they're talented, funny and relatable - the younger members are close to my age too. Then there's the music, which is excellent and there's a lot of. And lastly, there's the fans. We're a chaotic bunch, but we get each other.
How has being a fan of your current 'ultimate' artist/group benefitted you?
I'd say that it has helped me better myself. They inspire me to work harder. I look at their effort and think "I should be doing that too", I look at where they are in life and think "I can get there too", I look at the kind way they treat others and think "I want to be like that too". Though I wouldn't call them 'role models', I can look up to them in more way than one and reflect on myself.
I also feel more content. Though most of their music isn't that 'deep', I can listen to it when I'm tired, when I'm sad, when I'm feeling nothing and it makes me happier. The way they go on VLive and share their own thoughts and struggles has also helped me cope with mine.
Do you feel that being a fan has damaged you in any manner?
Not really. Perhaps in the past it's made me procrastinate? But I'd say that it was an outlet for procrastination rather than a cause of it.
