17 pages, 300 comments. Is this a documentary or a mockumentary..?

One side is saying vocals doesn't matter because they are entertainers, and a buncha other artists are also bad vocally, especially some top GGs.

Question for this side: do yall think yall are the enabler for these types of idols? That if you say 'it's ok, you don't have to improve' or 'other artists are just as bad!' it will stroke their ego and prevent them from actually improving? Since everybody around them are 'Yes men/women'. How does one try to improve a weakness when fans keep babying them? FYI I am talking about criticism of singing, not the amount of hateful message idols are getting.

Other side is saying if you're a singer, at least learn how to sing.

Question for this side: Does idol actually needs to be good at singing? Can't they be entertainers and performers? Because an idol resume includes alot of things besides singing. If a person can minimize their time spent on a song, and help the group in different ways, wouldn't that also count as being a good idol? Do you think the hate Sakura is receiving is blown out due to the recent drama with Hybe+MHJ and their unfortunate Coachella performances?

I didn't read all 17 pages, so if all of these are already covered, LMK

Forget the chart, aespa can dominate me

Fans: We got muscles!!

Jihyo: I got muscles at home

Muscles at home:

Another day, another banger, except this banger came with receipts. I wonder if Hybe expected this. There's no way they didn't right? Since MHJ have the texts. So what was the purpose of releasing those edited messages?

What is hype next move??!!

She's basically the same height. You never see Dahyun and her in the same room. It might actually be her?!?

Dahyun living the double live over here. Yall don't be fooled.

Seems like his company or management isn't letting him rest? Poor guy.

When you can sing, anything sounds great~

There are no winners in war

Unless you're a weapon dealers or in the arms industry, then .

I guess in this case we can say news reporting agency, lawyers, and authorities are getting them $$ per MHJ+Bang interactions.

Ironically, the domain name kinda fits for that sort of service. Gfriend... I am not say it's right, but it's right. Yknow?

I'm not 100% sure why. It's like those people who leave the protective plastic on their TV or remotes or appliances lol

I guess I don't really have a use for things inside, album stuff mainly aren't made for guys. Like I have no use for the stickers or bookmarks or little cut out stands. I also don't hang posters. Things like photobooks I can only imagine going through it once so I guess I figured if I just watch a video of someone unboxing the album, I'll get to see the content as well

It's not a very reasonable explanation but that's just how my logic works lol

AHh make sense. I initially wanted to do the same, but my two hands had a mind of its own. It opened all of the albums I got

Prettiest girl in Starship

Quote from Taemin-Identity

I’m not blaming the girls. You can blame hybe and source music all you want, and I will blame them too. I’m saying just not act like idols are innocent. They live like and act like ordinary people.

I think there is a difference in being innocent, and being force or made to wear leggings/heels, and dance provocatively for corporates; for those in power, as some had mentioned.

An innocent person could of wore heels and leggings, not knowing HOW their footage is being used or having ulterior motive. To them, it is just another evaluation day, and they are being asked to performed, that is their innocent mindset.

Not everyone is the same. Some people are very sheltered from society due their upbringing. It's a shame that this was leaked in the way it is. Most of the time, predebut videos are 'fun', 'cute' or a sense of longing to see how far an idol has come. But we had several pages of user, news report- discussion this as an issue- so it was not done in good faith.

It's a variety of things. Some people like to support their favorites and that if their artists win, charts, or streamed well, they feel the relief that the artist is still being loved. Some might like giftings, and the best gifts they can do is $$. Same as if you don't have money and so you support as much as you can: stream. It's a sense of fulfillments. Like one of IVE's song IAM "You are someone's dreams come true", Kim Eana is a genius lyricist!!

The other dark side is, bragging rights. Which I think may be the topic of your anger? My faves won over yours so Im better. It still the self fulfillment through artists, but a more crazier way? You can look at it however you want. The same thing when artists is an ambassador for brand deals, those clothing, purse, wallet, or whatever is advertised, gets sold ASAP. Do people think people buys it because its pretty, or do they think they will look like their idol if they wears it? Very materialistic, but that's how it is.

Food for thought; maybe it's a cultural phenomenon- where comparison between family members, friends, and societal are so apparent and engraved within the lifestyle that 'He has', 'she has', but 'I don't have' kind of mentality. So people feel the need to stan the best to become the best, and compare themselves to the 'not best' and say 'I won'?

Maybe it's a perception thing, where you want the idol to LIKE you, because you're spending so much money. Have you ever noticed that famous celebrities majority of the time getting things FOR FREE, even from random everyday regular folks. Why is that so? They're rich enough, why give free things? Is it because we wanted to look good in their eyes? Is it because we like them so much, or our perception of them are positive to the extend of free gifts?
