I wouldn't say she's hated by most Blinks. I'd say she's hated by many Blinks. Blackpink in general has a lot of solo stans who can be toxic by talking badly about the other members. With that said, I'm sure most Blinks support all four members of the group.

To answer your question more, hate towards Jennie has a long and complicated history. Many Blinks and just K-pop fans in general felt from the very beginning that she was the most favored by YG Entertainment. They got the impression that she's too much of a diva who thinks she's better than everyone else, which I think is untrue. Even if it's true that she's favored the most by YGE, that's not her fault.

Neither. Cos Idc about both.

You're entitled to your opinion, but the question is this or that. "Both" or "neither" isn't a valid option. If you "don't care about both," it's possible to just skip the thread instead of clicking on it and replying.

Singing: BIGBANG. They're stabler and more consistent.

Rapping: I'm going to say they're pretty equal with this one.

Dancing: BTS, obviously.

Stage presence: BIGBANG. They don't need to dance or have much choreography. They move and improvise onstage in a way that hypes up the crowd; it's so pure and authentic. They also do a lot of improvising when it comes to singing and rapping, especially when they add spontaneous ad libs. They have a way of making songs that we've heard tons of times before still sound refreshing.

At this point, it should be common knowledge that weed is safe compared to many other things. It's even legally used for medicinal purposes. These idols aren't hurting anyone. They're also not glorifying it in any way; they're just using their free time, in their own private spaces, to relieve stress.

Quote from Suvi1

RR is one of red velvet’s best songs and also one of their most successful songs as well, so this is great.

I agree. "Russian Roulette" is the type of song I think of when someone mentions K-pop.

This made me rewatch Red Velvet's performances of "Russian Roulette." It's such a great song and that choreography is enjoyable and cute.

Like others have said, most (if not all) of them.

I'm not a doctor, but I'm guessing your veins' movement might have to do with your accelerated heart rate. Maybe more blood is being pumped and circulated as a result of that. All of this sounds normal to me, but I recommend contacting a doctor if you're concerned. I'm hoping the best for you.

Good on you for staying active!

Night mode has been cool for me.

This dude:

He's my favorite by default because I haven't seen enough K-dramas. I've seen two in which he stars and a few clips of him in another.

They're important in their own way. It's hard to make that a fair comparison.

3.5. Aside from certain groups, we haven't seen much of the 4th generation yet. I feel like it truly happens when more 4th-gen groups pick up steam.

I've come to really appreciate eyes. A lot of people care about the color, but that's not the main appeal for me. I pay attention to the shape. Monolids or double eyelids, it doesn't matter.

Eyes can express a variety of emotions and attitudes. They make a huge difference in performances, as you might have observed.

Quote from 4NIA4

This is a brilliant observation I see it the same way. It is hard to fault them, I have the same mindset. Damned getting used to having individual Rights during a Public crisis. It is a very selfish situation.

This is where the difference between East and West comes into play. Western societies have much more of an individualistic mindset, and that's great in some ways. People should absolutely take pride in their unique qualities and features, what makes them the people they are. However, there's a point at which people can go overboard. This occurs when they only think about themselves, neglecting the effects of their actions on others. Sometimes we see people behaving differently just to be different and going against the rules just to go against rules. There's an ego problem going on.

In eastern societies, it's more commonplace to take collective action for the greater good of society. People are more willing to sacrifice a bit of their personal comfort if it means the community as a whole can benefit. Of course, there have been anti-maskers in Asian countries as well, but these are basically outliers. In the West, conformity is often stigmatized as being sheep, but I really think it's about time for people to grow up and realize there comes a time when we all have to work together instead of just thinking about ourselves.

Sometimes I feel like those of us in first-world countries are bored out of our minds, so we resort to believing strange conspiracy theories just to look cool or stand out.

It depends on the intention.

Politicians often try to relate to people by taking interest in things that the particular demographic likes. That may be cringeworthy, but I don't think there's anything particularly bad about it.

I'm more skeptical about celebrities and social media influencers who claim to like BTS, or K-pop in general, just to make a profit or to gain popularity.

With that said, I try to give people the benefit of the doubt unless it's painfully obvious.

Quote from carljungkim

Then what is it? A song to sell themselves out to America.

It's very inspired by American '90s R&B, but numerous other K-pop songs are also inspired by American music. That doesn't mean it's bad or that it's "selling out to America."

Red Velvet has always incorporated a '90s R&B sound to their music. That was the other side to them since the beginning. It wasn't something that suddenly showed up with "Bad Boy."

Quote from carljungkim

I see it as an equivalent of BTS with "Dynamite," it's a rehash that didn't work. It was all too superficial. Like they were play-acting. Granted, the song itself is way more tolerable than "Dynamite".

I don't see it that way. I thought "Bad Boy" was refreshing. K-pop needed something like that at the start of 2018. You're entitled to your opinion, though.

I didn't like "Dynamite" much at first, but I became tolerant of it. It has its place in BTS's discography. I like it for what it is.

Quote from carljungkim

"Bad Boy" is not great. Hell, it's not even good. I'm not impressed with artificiality.

Why do you think it's "artificiality"?

Quote from emanresu

I'm Pretty Sure Sana Is A Mythical Japanese God

In 100 years people will worship Sana as a god.

They'll be books and bibles.

Great histories and legends.

They'll write novels and poetry.

We'll get some charities and schools going. Start righting the world's wrongs with Sana.

It'll be the new religion.

We all got to get in on the ground floor.

It's like we're Jesus' disciples and she's out here performing miracles & curing the sick.

We're a small kpop cult now.

But this is the start of Sanaism.

Soon they'll be churches and worldwide movements. Mark my words.

Scientology who?

No Sana No Life.

She's indeed stunning in that performance.
