Quote from BEG4DAWIN

T-ara was falsely accused of bulling, are you saying that you also think Soojin is being falsely accused?

And you also believe that those falsely accused should just go away with out trying to defend them selves, or perhaps you are stating that truth does not matter, the public will turn on you even if the accusations are eventually proven false?

I may agree with the last sentence.

Soojin being a bully makes sense to me as her other classmates started coming for her as well actually. I really doubt she is completely innocent. I didn't mean to say t-ara did actually bully their member, but barely did anyone know the whole case is a misunderstanding back then. The nation treated t-ara as if they were actual bullies, so that is also how GIDLE and Soojin are gonna be treated. They are a nation who put so much value in manners and mostly believe in cancel culture, so I wouldn't be shocked if they cancel GIDLE as a whole

Edit: OK now that another bully from that group apologized there is almost no doubt that she was a bully lol.

It's not that hard to be objective guys... 2 weeks before the scandal happened I started watching GIDLE shows and out of all the members, it was Soojin's shy and cute personality that I liked and she slowly became my bias. After two weeks, boom. Once again in Kpop history, idol images turn out to be made up and fake. It isn't exactly easy for me either, to see that my bias turned out a bully but defending her makes zero sense now.

Kinda agree with OP

I keep thinking if I love someone, we move together and live with each other for years, I won't have that fresh loving feel towards them after seeing them closely. Same for the guy as well

Quote from BlinkNation

Bullying is never acceptable, and it sounds like Korea has a huge problem with school bullying and that needs to be addressed. No one should go through it, and I don’t like how people underestimate the affect it can have. Victims can suffer for their whole lives because of it.

However, it makes me pretty uncomfortable to think Soojin’s whole career could be ruined because of something that happened when she was 13. I understand if it is a serious sexual or violent assault, but otherwise it seems a bit Orwellian to me that people are retrospectively punished and “cancelled” for things they did when they were children. How can people ever change if they get attacked for anything bad they ever did, often by people who are just looking to ruin someone, instead of actually caring.

Irene didn’t lose her career over berating a woman to the point of tears as a grown woman, so it would seem rather bizarre if Soojin lost hers after being mean as a child. Not saying either of them should lose their careers, despite Irene’s behaviour being disgusting, but it just seems so backwards.

Irene will probably not gain her IT girl status back. She may be able to perform with Red Velvet possibly a few months before their contract ends and continue as a B-tier celebrity later. Even Irene, one of nation's most beloved celebrities has apologized and is being cautious, Soojin's career wasn't even half big as hers objectively and she is handling it pretty bad

Based on how knetz are reacting, she needs to leave or Gidle will end u like t-ara. T-ara was DAMN SNSD's rival for being the nation's girl group and they ended up being treated like a step child. Their digital power decreased to like half of what it used to be and failed to win a single trophy until years after.

How her other class mates are coming for her as well shows that there definitely WAS something going on. Bullying could ruin a child's whole life, it could lead to depression and suicide. Some of children drop out of school. Idk why people act like it should be forgotten just like years have past. She doesn't even have the courage to apologize. Ofc stans and the agency will deny it, it's their cash machine, duh.

She seems to be a natural blonde... all of my family that is italian has chocolate brown or chocolate red hair. She is pretty

Ikr, it's pretty rare in south of Europe

Quote from silver25

she looks like the girl he tells me not to worry about

Efuckingxactly lol

Am already in Asia but to choose another one, I'd go for UAE or Korea.

Europe: Italy

America: The US duh

Africa: Egypt, but I'm very curious about Africa in general

She's a moderately famous influencer, Italian blondie

Jealous of her 24/7

"Change" is the wrong word for the impact it left on me. It just subtly affected my taste in things like my idea of beauty or influenced my fashion choices to some degree. It wasn't really Kpop tbh, but the few influencers that I followed from Korea. Like the girl on my dp, Elina Karimova

This forum is dominated by westerners and they are going for tea, quite an irony because I thought Americans and Europeans refer coffee in general.

Where I live most people drink tea all the time, but I like coffee and I get teased for it for trying to seem "western" or "classy" lol

A girlish look mostly

Honestly, I do find most Korean beauty standards to be aesthetic. Like the slim figure or small face and high nose bridge. But wtf is this even lmao. Most of those broad shoulders look masculine to me

I don't remember, probably didn't have a serious crush but Kristen Stewart is gorgeous

Quote from Hopkinz

It will do well, maybe not 200 hours of PAK like Brave Girls though.

They should promote again though

Although it's way too soon to speak about promoting again, I'm worried they get to a decent position and then the agency doesn't give a sh*t because they seem to have given up on the girls. The comeback kept getting canceled and even the most active member Solbin has kinda disappeared.

Quote from nana18

I don't know if korean gp is interested with this type of songs , one thing for sure this song has a very second generation sound to it

Objectively, this is exactly the type of music that the nation is into tbh. Very fresh and old school. It's the type of song lets say Gfriend would release when they were in their peak and loved by Korea. Or possibly Apink in their younger days. These 2 groups became famous with the general public solely thanks to their music as they do not have the agency privilege. Who knows if they could manage getting into top 100 or not, but within their fandom, the fans always knew this song had the biggest potential out of all their records.

Doubt there are many Kpop stans like that, they are open minded in general

I live for songs from my teen days getting attention TT I miss that era so much

The song has reached a new peak in top 200 today. It's barely any attention of course, but for LABOUM it's a LOT already considering it's a peak.

Do you think it has potential to reach top 100??? Laboum has never charted in top 100 during their entire career TT

I'd wanna post but I'm fugly and embarrassed to be one of the firsts so lol
