IVE

Quote from icyruios

Also is it me or the ending song sounds a bit like I Wanna Dance With Somebody by Whitney Houston?

I know what you mean, but it reminds me more of... Taylor Swift or Selena Gomez.

Quote from ThePhantomThief

Wouldn't surprise me, given how much IVE loves to add remixes of classic pop songs into their songs.

Not this time!

Our girls and BIGBANG once again.

Also, “Home Sweet Home” 3rd win!

Shame how Korean GP treated them after 2016, especially what happened to GD & T.O.P

Very sad. They brought together the entire K-pop industry and inspired the next generations only for people, both in Korea and internationally, to perpetuate hate and negativity.

Even to this day, GD, Daesung, Taeyang, and T.O.P are spreading positivity in their content. They've been humble the entire time.

BIGBANG is forever and will remain a force in K-pop and even K-drama.

"Love Dive" and Wonyoung. She ultimately chose "Love Dive" as IVE's comeback song and title track because she had a good feeling about it, and she was right. That's Wonyoungism for you.

BIGBANG was that one group that freely interacted with other idols without caring about any potential backlash. The members are still doing that to this day. They normalized casual interactions and created some wholesome moments, something a lot of new K-pop fans absolutely cannot stand and will put a negative spin to.

Wonyoung is one of those ethereal idols.

Quote from Kitty_Saurus

There will always a part of the fandom that will be toxic and ARMYs have also become more active because the remaining members of BTS will be done in 5 months.

I don't want to consider them part of the fandom because they shouldn't have the satisfaction of feeling like they represent anything. They don't stand for anything except hate and all the bad things in the world.

But then it depends on how you look at it. It begs the question, "Are toxic people who don't follow the core values of the artist and fandom still part of the fandom?"

Quote from bbgc

You mean I misconstrued your generic remark, took it as a shade and made snide remarks - then I might qualify to be an ARMY 😁

If that were the case, you could have long back clarified, instead you went with alleging toxicity.. But then you are an ARMY.

Anyway moving on.

I am sure such things will happen again. BTS being in the army reduced the insanity some, but that's ending soon.

If you want to address the issue, this isn't the way to go about it because you're deflecting. The message gets lost.

I actually aim to call out specific people for their hypocrisy, superiority complex, and racism. That stuff doesn't sit right with me, and I'm trying to make sure people know.

You're not helping the cause if you're going to make this about a whole fandom.

Quote from Yama-Chan

I'm going to stay out of this one for once. Not like my disposition towards ARMY isn't well known.

And with that statement, you’ve officially joined.

Quote from bbgc

I did mention statistically low numbers, but playing victimcard is definitely high numbers..

Go fix your group reputation. If you can't, then don't bother defending it

You see what you want to see. It doesn't take much to see there are far more decent-minded ARMY. Try interacting with ARMY not just when you have your grievances. You'll see a lot of them have respect for other groups and fandoms.

But when you're only fixated on these incidents, you'll think the majority are like that.

It's a real shame they believe they represent or speak for the fandom. They don't. I think these people deserve to be called out, but not at the expense of reasonable ARMY.

Two threads about this already...

BTW there is nothing more pathetic that Kpop stans creating set up accounts to insult their own faves.

Yes, that is indeed pathetic.

However, I don't think we should deflect from the very real phenomenon of K-pop fans who think they're too good to call themselves K-pop fans just because they stan a group that's ahead of the pack in popularity.

I don't even consider them ARMY because they don't have any of the qualities that real ARMY have.

It disappoints me to see people acting so pretentious and elitist as if they're better than everyone else. You'd feel the same if you saw I-fans who identify as, say VIPs, EXO-Ls, or Blinks, praising their favorites while speaking ill about the rest of their favorites' race, ethnicity, and nationality. It's that superiority complex that I find repulsive and disgraceful.

By far, the worst thing in K-pop stan culture is the superiority complex of many stans.

The song that consolidated my love for K-pop. One of the greatest songs to ever grace the genre. T.O.P's verse in particular got me hooked. The song is really interesting because it has the essence of a traditional ballad, but with a modern twist due to the great rap verses.

According to Ripia , AKP loved it when it came out in 2012. Even if they didn't like BIGBANG, they still loved the song.

Songwriters: G-Dragon, T.O.P, and Teddy

Producers: Teddy, G-Dragon

Quote from crystalblues

Me and Ves are rolling our eyes at the Army who threw a tantrum. Elder Armys are mostly converted over VIPs. The amount of gall some members of the fandom have is astounding.

Shoutouts to Flowercrew  dsc  KpopVeteranARMY

To some, these might not seem like hate comments. But consider the context and intention of them going to some artist’s profile and spamming such comments.

They’re not commenting on a Billboard or Time Magazine post about K-pop acts who shaped the industry. They went to a non-BTS artist’s profile to do this, obviously as a reaction to something he said. All while he made sure to say, “We weren’t the only ones who presented that path, but we were a part of it and I’m honored to be part of it.”

It’s not his fault they couldn’t comprehend how humble his answer was.

When will Red Velvet tour the United States again?

This is why Red Velvet is such a great group.

For this specific comparison? Subjectively Joy. Objectively Wendy. I almost chose Seulgi as my subjective choice, but I realized after a few listens that Joy's part captivated me the most.

What an incredible group.
