KPOP Shippers are Delusional
Hey guys this is my first time on this subreddit so sorry if my post isn’t very good, but with the Winter and Jungkook dating rumors heating up right now I just wanted to point out how delusional kpop shippers are. I feel like everyone calls out kpop fans who believe they’re going to marry their idols one day and send hate toward their alleged partner (and rightly so), but not a lot of people at least on Reddit call out kpop shippers and their delusions.
In my opinion the two most annoying kpop shippers that I’ve experienced are Lisa x Jungkook and V x Jennie shippers (ironically both these ships are between a BTS and a Blackpink member). First with Lisa x Jungkook, there was absolutely no proof of the two of them being together other than fans just wanting them to be together because they were the youngest members of the two most popular groups. This ship got so bad that it was very clear Lisa and Jungkook were uncomfortable by it. They were even nominated for best ship at the Kids Choice Awards, which is ridiculous because they weren’t even together and I just find that so weird because they’re real people not characters in a movie or a tv show.
As for V and Jennie, unlike Lisa and Jungkook there was legit evidence that the two were together (Paris Video for example), however I still find their shippers delusional as well, like when they said V and Jennie was a hundred percent confirmed even though unlike her and Kai their companies never confirmed it. Or when after not having legit proof in over three years Taennie shippers do any sort of mental gymnastics to prove they’re together like they’re wearing the same colored shoes, the same shirt, etc., similar to what’s happening with Jungkook and Winter right now. It’s just really annoying.
I also find it super gross that shippers do any sort of mental gymnastics because their idol could be in a relationship with another person and that’s very disrespectful to both the idol and their supposed partner as well.
Finally, I just don’t understand why people care so much about two idols being together it’s just really weird. Anyway thanks for reading my rant.
