hurry july

I need

new jeans

snsd

blackpink

twice

august is going to be so jam packed, and I could use a distraction

so nice packaging

I don’t like snickers so will give to my nephews

brings back so much memories, this song is so lovely and meaningful from BTS to army

Bop!

Chorus is a bit generic but overall it’s good, and I love the pre chorus. BLACKPINK never disappoints

I agree, their choreo can be kind of awkward, I think with better choreography, they wouldn’t get so much hate for ‘stage presence’

also, in general millennials liked forums, whereas gen z seem to much prefer Twitter and other social media, so forums have sadly taken a hit across the board even if K-pop has grown.

I have a kpop Twitter account too, but I think it can kind of because an echo chamber of the fandoms you follow, it’s nice to have a space to converse with people of different fandoms in a peaceful way, which is why I love forums.

noooo not my jichu

It was big back before but toward the end it started losing popularity and almost all those artist threads were dead.

Even before this forum they're dying off. Now they're just shockingly bad.

I ask myself why and I can't help but think it's cause new gen dislike updates and prefer messy threads.

My suggestion would be to add the Artist Section (Group Threads) to the Kpop forum as a subsection i.e. dumpster files, netizen noise etc. this way more people would be able to see the thread updates on the top of the page, and not have to move to another forum to access it (people are lazy lol)

but if that doesn’t work, maybe you’re right and these new 4th gen fans don’t care for cohesive update threads.

I used to have the biggest SHINee Content thread on akp

It was like 5k pages or so

Then revamped and got deleted

So not worth compiling anymore

I see, that makes sense. If you spend so much time and years composing a thread and it gets deleted, can be discouraging

The closest we have is guilds but the only real active ones are the NCT exo forums.

I know that it's weird when old akp and that other forum official threads were very active.

But users here like messing around they dislike structure and organisation the concept just hasn't work no matter what I tried to make it work lol. I would just delete the section at this point.

I see

guilds are probably closer to that.

but it’s nice that the main forum is active

Quote from ISaidISaid

We have guilds. So group threads are not active.

thanks for the info! I didn’t know what a guild even was

Quote from Minazuki

Guilds

intriguing! how do I make a new jeans one?

I’m aware that they exist, but they don’t really have many consistent updaters etc. kinda surprising to me as another forum refugee lol

Snsd ot9 (I loved taeyeon and jessica vocal combo :()

Blackpink: Rosé’s sweet vocals with Jisoo’s husky vocals makes their songs sound gorgeous.

Red Velvet: Wendy, Joy and Seulgi

Cherry Bullet: haeyoon and bora are incredible vocalists

I got the black bag since it goes the best with most of my outfits. I feel like nwjns are gonna drain my pocket money with their merch when it comes out

it’s so cute!

I agree, they are taking my pockets for sure but it’s nice to spend on a Girlgroup again

i got the Newjeans bluebook version, it’s so pretty!

i wanted the white bag too, but it was sold out. so will probably get the black bag too!

Quote from ZombiePopsicle

Yep I also think hyein will be the centre, she just gives off those vibes and was the first one I noticed in attention

yes she stands out a lot in the MVs! also she was the first member to have her day Hyein Day :)

Leader/Visual: Minji

Main Vocal: Haerin

Lead Vocal: Hyein

Main Dancer: Hanni

Lead Dance: Dani

and I think Hyein will be Center (or Hanni) if there is one!

Quote from demenshorts

honestly, steering away for MHJ issue, ever heard of changing opinions upon learning new information?

getting whiplash from a fast change in narrative is way better than stubbornly staying on one regardless of new facts just to stay "consistent" imo lol

ok, but what about the fact the user is advocating for boycotting the group?

Those girls are innocent, what good is planning to boycott them based on the actions of their CEO? Putting an end to all their dreams and the hard work put into making their debut…
