Definitely Aespa in terms of raw talent/vocal-wise.
I think NJs have more chemistry with each other and the crowd. NJs is more stylized singing.

I'm pretty sure i mentioned earlier that he is merely an example. An "odd" one but still an example. I'm very well aware how much of a scumbag he is.
And I do have an issue with the self-righteous tokkies on here.
Also what's the diff between a bunny and a tokki? Is it just like an unofficial/official thing?
You do realize why pig became an insult, right? When people insult others as being a pig or fat, it isn't just about their outer appearance and weight. Weight is a symptom of a deeper issue. It points towards someone's greediness and corrupt nature.
You are oversimplifying it as an attack on BSH's weight only, but it is an insult on his overall character. Why do people call bankers and cops as being pigs? They aren't all fat. The insult is that corruption and greediness leads to an ugly outward appearance.
Whatever. I'm done with this topic.

And?
You do get it. "calling out various user/bunnies on the thread" there it is.
I'm not "shaming" them (as evidenced by the fact that they are shameless fatshamers) but instead calling them out on their massive hypocrisy.
They spread the very toxicity they claim to be against <- Hypocrisy at its finest.
And I know they are not the only fandom capable of this but give it time. Bunnies are not the only fandom I intend on calling out for their hypocritically toxic engagements.
Are you going to call out everyone that insults others as being crazy or a psycho? Dumb? Stupid? What is the line? You are trying to police others through shame.
Bunnies and AKP users aren't a monolith. Some are willing to get down in the mud to fight. People are ok slinging mud against CEOs because there is a massive power imbalance. I don't follow that philosophy, but I'm not going to be holier though about it.
I think you should look in the mirror if you want to talk about toxic engagements.

I can see that you think berating someone for how they look is acceptable and right due to your cultural background which showcases your subjective morality but whatever.
I won't question your culture hence why I skipped the other parts of your post.
I will question your morals but the way in which I will do that will be perceived as disrespectful and since I'm not gonna be disrespectful about it, I won't comment on that at all.
Your point of view is very western centric.
You've been shaming everyone on the thread you created. Instead of taking insults as it is, you tried to tie this issue up with fat shaming.
I can call someone birdbrained or an idiot without it being deep. I don't get why you have to go on this soap box calling out various users/bunnies on the thread.

Who?

Koreans benefitted, not Asians. Maybe, I can stretch it to East Asians.
To be honest, I would put Psy, K-food, K-tech/cars and K-drama over Kpop for the popularity of Korean culture. Kpop is a very small bubble compared to K-food and K-drama.
The government invested in expanding the soft power of Korea. It took the effort of the entire country's infrastructure. It is delusional for Bang to take credit for it.

Did you see the thousands others saying that unlawfully killing someone is not justified regardless of anything?
Indeed.
Welcome to the internet where fatshaming is acceptable when it's toward a specific person.
I'm saying you are moral grandstanding right now. Morality is a guiding post, not a fixture. Depending on different country, culture, religion, politics, etc., we have a different set of morals.
It is fine if you don't like fat shaming, but it isn't a hill to die on for me. Don't force it on me or others.
Fat shaming is accepted in my culture. I don't think we even have the concept of it or it is very nascent. That's why I don't blink an eye when Bang or MHJ talks about weight.
In some ways, you are doing the same thing. Shaming other users. Why do you get a free pass for shaming others?

It's not just about Bang Shi Hyuk, though??
You might think this is one of my "hot" takes but it isn't a take of any sort.
This should be common sense for literally everyone that has the mental capability.
You're saying fatshaming is justified because he's a bad person is bad right?
So by that logic then technically the CEO being murdered is justified because he was responsible for the deaths of countless others..right??
Did you see the 25 women lined up outside the courthouse, because they were thirsty for Luigi? Or have you been on reddit in regards to this topic? Welcome to the internet.

Fat shaming is a Korean national sport.

What did I walk into?

Lim Young Woong got a strangle hold on the ajummas.

Number 1 is a variation of the standard school uniform concept with y2k aesthetics.

Number 2 is a variation of the cheerleader concept with more of a y2k aesthetic.
Number 3 is just formal wear.
Number 4 is a variation of what they wore in the Cool With You MV where they are supposed to represent the muses.

Sometimes when I talk about MEOVV or BABYMONSTER, people say they want to stan but there isn’t enough content...
Maybe they just aren’t putting in the effort to seek out such content because MEOVV has:
A whole variety show of their own
A “behind the scenes” video for each MV
Two “behind the scenes” videos for the member teasers
STUDIO CHOOM performance videos
Multiple NPOP appearances
Two variety show appearances
3 or 4 radio talk show appearances
A whole MAMA performance
Constant shorts/reels/TikToks
It’s honestly hard to keep up with, so I don’t know what more people want.
BABYMONSTER has had an amazing year in terms of content, too. They already got four music videos for their latest album, one more MV on the way. Rami and Ahyeon were on Lee Mujin Service. Ahyeon and Pharita went on Begin Again Open Mic. The group went on that one variety show hosted by Jonathan. That’s just some of it. Tru-Multistan can elaborate on this.
I think people just see a YGE group or a Teddy-directed group and think “Ah, another YGE group stuck in the dungeon” and run with that narrative without actually checking out the content.
Or maybe we’re just getting lazy or losing interest when it comes to content.
I think my attention span is fried from watching too many short form videos. I can't even sit through tv shows without skipping it or putting it at 1.5x spd.
The new groups don't have as many active fan accounts. Usually, it takes time before one or two really good ones to pop up. Until then, it won't show up on shorts/reels through the algos, and a lot of people consume Kpop content through these short form fan account vids.

ahhh i see; thanks for sharing!
No problem. It is just hard, because there are certain words that describes a concept or it can change dependent on context.
This is what happened when MHJ talked about Minji when she was young. People don't have the cultural context as to what she was talking about.
Here is a good example. Soyeon from (G)-idle said this in an interview about idols debuting at such an early age. She said she had a slightly negative opinion on it, but she recently changed her mind.

It must be amazing that such moments could be captured(there is a record of it).'
Then later in the interview there was a question where the host asked, "Was there a concept you've always wanted to try that you weren't able to?"
She answered, 'When we debuted, we had a bit of a strong image. I wish we had done something more innocent. Something that would contain the feeling of youthfulness/freshness(풋풋함) that exists when we were young.'

I think both translations does the best to capture the intent behind the words being spoken, but it misses that last 10% that can't be translated. If done by MTL or someone not familiar with the context behind the words, her words can seem creepy and some would infer she is fetishizing youthfulness.
-
wait... did mhj actually say that? that would be funny
but yeah, i see your point, in the sense that it's childish and young looking
I remember overdoing it when I first did makeupThere is a word called 풋풋하다. The direct translation is a bit off, but it is fresh/full of life. It is used to describe someone young. It is like a mixture describing youthful energy, innocence, cuteness, aesthetics and delicate nature of that time period. It isn't something that can be replicated when you are older.
When Kpop producers talk about the age where certain concepts can be explored, Westerners mistake them for being creeps, but they are talking about the age where idols possess 풋풋함.

It is a Y2K teenager concept, which fits their age range, especially when these photos were taken.
