I wanna know your thoughts on this the most, I guess everyone probably knows about the yk leaked trainee footage of them saying a certain word, I’m not justifying or defending that, it is still wrong but I feel like context is quite crucial in the state they are in.
Of course they were trainees at that time, really uncertain on when they’re gonna debut, another one is how you know pressuring and competitive the system and one wrong turn they do (around that time) will ruin their chances of debuting. Still that doesn’t excuse what they said, but I think it’s worth considering the circumstances rather than looking at the footage completely in isolation.

Another thing I noticed the most especially in that person involved releasing all those footages is a big majority is all BP, like from scrapped mvs, dance practices, etc etc, like I know there are other footages of YG artists too but majority is BP and it’s a bit suspicious right? One thing I noticed too there was another trainee footage of another idol in YG saying the same word, but never gotten any heat for it whereas the pinks in the other hand they got the most heat during that time.

Another thing to point out was the timing too like during that time Coachella was getting closer and I know both Jennie and Lisa were in the lineup during that time those leaks were circulating , which arguably made the situation even more damaging because they were already under a lot of public attention.

Then ofc Lisa’s documentary on how she wanted to adress the situation and apologize through LLOUD when that circulated but YG stopped her for the sake of “avoiding more scrutiny” when we know damn well how much hate she gotten at that time too and in my opinion the ones who should have addressed the whole thing is YG themselves and footages being leaked without consent too and members being minors it’s a serious consideration as well, I guess that’s me.

But what do you think, were these footages really meant to tarnish the girls?

I know this will be a bit of a difficult topic to bring up and might be a controversial take within the fandom, so please try to take it lightly. I am also a fan I love the girls too as well I just need to like address the elephant in the room.

I feel like a majority of this fandom tends to spend their energy fighting with others especially the purple fandom (don’t get me wrong I don’t like them too) but sometimes I wonder if some Blinks are becoming the exact kind of fandom they would always criticize.

Like with their current solo releases, there are people in this fandom who says the most horrible things to them, put some personal insults, want them to fail, wishing for the solos to “flop” or hoping a member will struggle so that they’ll supposedly “come back to the group” (meaning going to the conditions of YG and you know what’s going on) because of the “low numbers” (I’m not that much of a chart obsessed fan).

Like isn’t that the kind of behavior we would normally criticize from antis? It feels strange seeing people who claim to love the members actively root against their individual success. Idk it just catches me off guard to see those people “claiming” to love the members actively root against their individual success.

I feel like some of them have to realize wether they like it or not is that
at the end of the day, BP are four individual people. You can prefer OT4 without wishing for a member’s solo career to fail. If you’re actively rooting against them, what’s the point of calling yourself a fan?

I’m not saying everyone has to become a solo stan or enjoy every single thing the members do. It’s completely normal to have preferences. I’m talking specifically about actively rooting against a member’s success.

Like honestly , the 10th anniversary thing could’ve been a chance for some people to leave, stan another group or step back, so I don’t get staying just to constantly be negative.

Anyways with this long post, I just wanna address this side of the fandom, but what do you think do you agree with it?

I’ve been thinking about this especially on the whole rollout of APT. So like during that time, I wasn’t really following everything closely because I was busy studying for my exams during that time, but I do remember that Rosé’s album had already been announced and we were getting concept photos and other content to make some excitement (please correct me if I’m wrong). Then APT was announced like day before it’s release and I feel like the announcement was a little “surprise”.

Of course it did end up becoming the most iconic hit we’ve known today

So I was wondering, was APT ever gotten hinted at before? Like were there you know “insider reports” that she was gonna collab with Bruno? Was it already been hinted but no one quite knew about it until she announced its release?

I mean I do remember Rosie was in Bruno’s concert the year before and then met him there and worked on the song later on after that. (Based on the interviews) I also remembered Rosie playing the game too with some friends in an after party for an event (I forgot what it is)

So yeah, did APT really get teased/hinted at before or the collab was really a surprise? Do you think the same type of rollout she did for APT could work for new trick?

What do you think?

I swear, how is this man so photogenic?? Every time I see a new still cut of Kangjoon especially in the contents of A Love Other Than Yours especially in this new still cut in particular, he makes it his own little photoshoot rather than just a still cut itself and honestly, I’m here for it!! He is just so gorgeous plus his eyes are so captivating to me, I feel hypnotized. Does anyone notice this too with Kangjoon’s still cuts?

I know it’s been quite a long time since I covered my disliked/low-rated series so I’m back again with it and this time it’s with Eve, which from what I remember Seo Yea-ji’s comeback drama after her scandal and I know it didn’t get really recognized well.

So I’m wondering why was this low-rated/disliked? Was it because of the story’s plot? The premise being good but the execution didn’t do it well? I think after this drama we really didn’t get to see much from Seo Yea-ji since then.

Anyways what are your thoughts on this show?

So as summary with the video, this user talks about the things that led up to what happened with the 10th anniversary, as well as the whole tour and EP situation, especially how some of it didn’t really feel “genuine” or like “forced” in a way which of course makes the fans feel disappointed.

She also go into the fact that all the girls apologized and discussed about the complicated situation they have with YG. Another big part of the video is explaining why all of them are focusing so much on their solo ventures now, including why they chose to leave YG as soloists and establish their own labels/agencies.

She compares their situation to Mamamoo, also the same where each member is also pursing solo careers while maintaining their identity as a group. Since right now they are releasing music and also currently touring, it felt more genuine because the members have been given space to explore themselves individually.

Another point she sort of brings up is how fans constantly “forcing” them to be together could potentially create an unhealthy dynamic for the members. She says that fans should give the members time to embrace and discover themselves individually and when the time is right they will get together.

So this is my thoughts on the video. For me, I personally agree what she said she made really good and infighting the points in this topic. I personally think she’s speaking the truth with what’s going on but I think some fans aren’t ready to hear this conversation yet.

So, what do you think about this video? Do you agree with all the topics that she pointed out?

I know that Click bear is one of the additions in the physical releases of Click and personally I would love to get this one. He looks very cute and I’m honestly gonna bring him everywhere with me along with my other dolls.

But I’m curious, has anyone ever gotten the doll already? If so, what does it look like in person? Is it something you could bring along? What is the size is it bigger or smaller and how would you compare it to the other Jisoo plushies (eg Shumon and Sooya dolls) by size? What do you think about it?

Lately I’ve seen some discussions about Click and honestly it’s fine to have different opinions towards the song itself. I found it cute and okayish and I didn’t have much high expectations towards it which is a good thing. Also it’s just a single, I’m sure there’s so much more she has in store for us after this, so this is just the beginning.

Anyways I did see some “fans” try to you know project things onto her like expecting her to do the same type of BP music, or follow the same direction like her members. When she herself has a different musical identity like the other members so I don’t get the you know saying that she should follow the same approach as them.

Also like I already knew the 2000/2010s pop girl image is her signature and I personally accepted it (already knew it since Amortage era and I loved Amortage era). Honestly I love pop girl music and I think I’m the target audience for that but I understand if it doesn’t cater to your image.

So yeah, it’s okay if the song doesn’t “click” to you, that’s perfectly fine. But some fans need to stop projecting what they want Jisoo’s solo career to be onto her and accept what she seems to actually be choosing for herself.

If that’s her own style that she wants to do, then so be it no need to make it a big deal.

Also one of the things I like about each member’s solo is that we get to see some unique sides of them which I think is cool in a way.

So for context, it’s announced that Hayoung will be withdrawing from season 2 & 3 (due to the controversy around her ancestry) and since her as Cheon Jangmi was my favorite character of her in watching the show, I felt a bit sad that we wouldn’t see her in the next few seasons since she really brought Jangmi’s own charm to life.

So I’m wondering, which actress do you think would be perfect in playing as Jangmi in season 2 and 3? Which one do you think would be perfect in embodying the overall charm and wittiness that Jangmi has in the show?

(Disclaimer I am saying this as someone who likes the drama please avoid putting out hate comments thank you)

Idk maybe it’s just me who’s thinking this but am I the only one who actually did see chemistry in Jisoo and Inguk in Boyfriend on Demand

I’ve seen like some people say that they supposedly “lack chemistry” but in my case I don’t think that’s completely true in the most part. I get that there were many male leads in the show and I know for some people they did see chemistry with her and Kangjoon and also Seungcheol in the ex storyline. I know that the romance between him and her were few, but in the case I actually did see their chemistry and it was heartwarming and soft in the most part.

Not just in the romance scenes themselves like even in the little quirks they have like whenever he tries to be playful and flirt with her, I felt that it was very genuine. Even the scenes before they came together, like the one scene where she found the missing bottle cap he was looking for when he got drunk that scene felt very romantic to me it was so cute, like even his POV too I felt that type connection too.

I know this might be a little unpopular opinion but I find their chemistry actually very calm and realistic in one part and I kind of prefer their dynamic than in SYAT (even tho I know he basically played the same character there).

Anyways, did you see them have chemistry too?
