Tomatoe, tomatoe! The biggest accusers often seem to be the biggest culprits and/or victims of toxicity though (and it is often oxymoron in itself)

Quote from YamaChwan

I have never disrespected someone who didn't show disrespect first. Ever. I only bully bullies. Unless it's about sports with other sports fans.

I also can't help the way I write, since that definitely IS part of my identity, and I can't really censor it or even attempt to. I know lean long-winded; it's my blessing and curse as a writer.

And thank you for the congratulations. I won't see the car until August due to inventory shortages.

You CAN help how you write, be mindful of the way you do so and be considerate of how it is received by others/the intended audience. If you don't, you will alienate people who may otherwise be supportive of you and your message. Frankly, some of what you have posted has rubbed people (myself included) the wrong way and not allowed us to fairly listen to the groups you advocate for and be resistant to doing so.

Quote from YamaChwan

It's really not that serious. I don't take myself seriously and neither should you. I promise you'll see less of me when it gets busier at work.

I bought a new car this summer. Can I flex about that too while I'm at it?

Should I get some Mamamoo and NewJeans decals and plaster it all over the car? Since the call is coming from inside the house?

Honestly, you come across as someone who takes yourself VERY seriously and you like to try to intimidate others (whose first language may not be English) with verbose arguments. That's not a sign of anything other than your own insecurity where you can try to weaponise confusing people with words.

re: the car (?), sounds fabulous!! Congrats

Now that you mention it...and I hate rehashing topics too. But looking at the responses this time, AKP needed this outlet. Even if just to vent at me

I would've just said Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya if not for the torture that was watching Endless Eight week to week.

I'm jealous how you have it all going on with the 'amazing job' you keep talking about it while commenting on forums 24/7. Sounds tough

Quote from YamaChwan

The fact you came back after saying bye, think there is a winner or loser to be declared in this exchange, and also apparently really want the last word, is even more proof that you should take your own advice.

I live a good life if I have the luxury to post on an Internet forum at my leisure.

If you don't want me gloating about my life, then maybe don't try to tell me how to live it.

What ARE you going on about? #thecallsarecomingfrominsidethehouse #trustmeihavethebestjobever #allkpoptokkiqueen

Please take your own advice if you think you can't have a life and post on a forum.

It's called time management and knowing how to multitask.

If you all think I'm sitting around just waiting to respond to people on this forum, you're high.

I NEVER just post here. It's always in conjunction with other activities.

I can post here while making stupid money at work. I think I'm pretty happy 😊

if the best argument you can make is unrelated and is 'trust me my life is better than yours and I earn so much money' then . I earn good, but I don't use it to win an argument I'm otherwise losing.

Quote from YamaChwan

You still need to work on your mental health if you think your unsolicited life counseling has any value. I can shit post and be perfectly happy because my mental health is in a great place.

Some people here really act like posting on a forum takes an immense commitment of time and resources.

Honestly, b!tch, I write and edit for a living. This comes as naturally to me as breathing and always has.

Kids these days are all about their Jujutsu Kaisens and their My Hero Academias and their Kimetsu no Yaibas.

But I still love the old school greats.

Can't forget classics like Outlaw Star and Trigun either. Maybe some Cowboy Bebop too.

Inuyasha is kind of mid, but I can't deny its impact either

Please get a life grounded in reality instead of responding to every post on a kpop forum. We would be happier and you would be happier. #thanksandbye

Quote from YamaChwan

Okay. In my edgier days as a young lad I did identify as a Saiyan for a bit, I admit. Then when I got older, I was more Frieza leaning.

Uggggghhhh. That's such a loaded question that makes me look like a boomer.

Rurouni Kenshin (up until Kyoto since the rest is trash filler)

One Piece

Nana

Cardcaptor Sakura

Dragonball

12 Kingdoms

The Slayers

Honestly this is just too hard. I've seen well over 800 anime. I'll get back to you

I consciously stopped posting here because I decided it wasn't healthy or conducive to my (actually happy) real life or mindset.

But honestly b!tch, the calls are coming from inside the house...

Do yourself a favor and get a life outside of posting on this forum 24/7...

Quote from hypernova

practically every top kpop group has had a drop in sales in the last year, but yes it’s an newjeans exclusive thing

I hope the NJ fans enjoy their latest comeback and any chart success because it will be the last one for a while. I'd say you can solace yourself through group cry-wanking over feeling indignant and right about things that the rest of us just don't get, but you have been doing it for weeks. Reasoning like yours in finding reasons to justify figures who are clearly in the wrong is the reason people like Trump have power. Shame on you..

As I said, peak delusion. Enjoy your small wins if it makes you feel better.

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

You are so hilarious, I don't know how you come up with these quips! LOL

Quote from Vague001

More delusion on this thread as if the choreography copyright legislation is some sort of win for NJ and MHJ. It’s got nothing to do with the case and won’t affect it in the slightest. It won’t even come into effect until the end of the year.

Also, copyright guidelines state what can and CAN’T be copyrighted. Its not a regulation to say nobody is aloud to copy anymore because ILLIT copied NewJeans, it is to set guidelines about what people can and cannot file copyright for.

It is laughable to think the Korean government are NJ and MHJ fans and are doing this out of support. They will just want clear rules to define what are baseless and valid claims of copying, and what can be copyrighted will likely be very specific as very few dance moves are truly original and don’t reference something. They just don’t want another mess like this happening elsewhere with a major Korean company.

‘99% of Korean public support MHJ’, choreography copyrights, cult claims, who debuted first, elevator greetings… Take all these so-called wins if it makes you feel better but NONE of it will matter to this case in the end, which will be settled in court. The law isn’t about what’s nice to do or who you like the best. It is about what is legal or within contract terms.

If I was an NJ fan I’d be more worried about the members all publicly coming out in support of MHJ to tie themselves to her, her actions and also burning bridges with HYBE. That puts every other so-called L in the shade. Just as public opinion in Korea has started to shift. The really are the new 50/50.

Also the fact that this highlights that choreography CAN'T be copyrighted at the moment actually reduces the validity of the claims in court.

Quote from atropos

U can't blame the parents and ador people for their reaction towards illit concept. I mean so many ppl were calling them nj copycats. They felt the same and reported their concerns.

No one makes such similar concepts in same company. It very much giving replacement.

It sucks for the illit girls who have zero control over this are getting hated on. They don't deserve any of it. They'll still have comebacks and a certain future, that simply doesn't exist for nj in the present after their Tokyo dome fan meet. Anyways anyone can believe in whoever they want is the bigger victim i guess.

Maybe tell that to YG, but I joke

It really isn't that similar though - MJH just capitalised on the 2000s revival trend - which was happening everywhere as every decade has a revival 20 years later or so - its cyclical. She lifted VERY heavily from UK Garage culture and music at that time, and copy and pasted a lot of things from that time to Korea where they felt 'new' because it didn't happen there then. Its new for K-pop, but she just referenced heavily (copied) music and styles and passed it off as creative genius.

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

Illit can't be victims because NewJeans are victims

NewJeans can't be victims because illit are victims

Even suffering is a zero sum competition

My god you all are abominable

Thanks, that's cleared lot of things up

Quote from YamaChwan

Not seem like I'm intelligent. I am. Obviously.

But I'm not sure how my opinion on the outcome of this legal dispute correlates with my disgust over some loser maliciously editing texts messages to create a monstrous depiction of MHJ's true feelings towards NewJeans.

Also, why are you so invested in what I or other people think? You're not changing my opinion. I don't really care about yours. Neither will have an impact on the results of this dispute.

Don't waste your time.

A lot of people on this thread need:

(a) therapy

(b) a hard look at themselves over their behaviour towards other groups

(c) a sobbing cry w**k over everything bad that's happened to our princesses NewJeans this last few weeks (our poor penthouse accommodated angels!)

Apologies, didn't mean to get you all bothered. I will refer you to...

Quote from atropos

No matter how u spin it the biggest victim in this story is newjeans. Their future has no clarity at present. No one knows how it's going to play out.

Any and every side is a loss situatio

They are not victims as they engaged with this either directly or indirectly through their parents. Some may be minors but they are not 8 years olds but young adults. They know what is happening and it would have been done in some consultation with them. This is classic Korean 'celebrity disease'. ILLIT are the victims, who are a new group that NewJeans families - and by proxy NewJeans members - supported naming, vilifying and hating

Quote from YamaChwan

What the ****

You seem like you are an intelligent person. Your posts are far more articulate than the majority of the barely literate ones from MJH fanboys/girls with childish arguments about greetings and broken promises etc (as if it means anything legally). However, you are clutching at straws and reaching hard - cling to the scraps of 'winning public opinion' as long as you want but it means nothing in the end. Nothing will salvage this for MJH - its a matter of when not if.
