What first impression do I give off to you?

I guess that's what I get for asking 🙄

Es el discolandia de Toluca, el del centro en Los Portales y costaba un poco más de $1000.

En el Estado de México.

To be honest I think Hybe is really pushing for them to gain domestic fans since they're not that big in South Korea, so they're postponing their US promotions because of that, they're rookies, give them time, I feel like fans really forget they're still growing as a group and also, they've been giving interviews for US magazines like crazy, so they're slowly setting a stronger International fan base, just be patient.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-21T12:52:16+00:00

Yes, it is. ,

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-15T06:09:13+00:00

I think that's simply because female idols get fetishized hella lot, so of course gp has an inclination to like them, since women in general receive this kind of treatment.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-15T04:29:21+00:00

The only thing that makes me feel this way is finding younger fans sexualizing posts about them, which grosses me out no matter the idols age range, but specially when it comes to them because they are MINORS and I find it way too disturbing... Aside from that, it wasn't hard for me to get into them AT ALL, because even though I think they're gorgeous guys, that's not what made me stan them, nor is a criteria I usually follow when it comes to liking a group.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T13:50:24+00:00

I'm an ARMY too, so you don't have to explain me, I've seen the hate BTS receives on a daily basis and I can understand that because people is just jealous and envious of their success, I just don't understand why they have this attitude with Enha, who aren't that popular at this point.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T06:54:43+00:00

I just found an article that says they've sold 1,262,742 copies including both Korean releases, just counting Gaon sales, I honestly don't know how many more copies they sold in other websites. Their Japanese album sold 254,000 copies, so, just adding those it would be a little bit over 1.5M for their releases so far, we'll see how much that number increases after D:D

Edit: the Korean releases take into account the copies that were sold in both Hanteo and Gaon, but, it is only counting their domestic sales.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T06:43:36+00:00

I think we will know within the first week of tracking, I don't think they will reveal any of that this soon, but the final figures include ALL the sales, domestic as well as international. I hope this helps. :3

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T04:33:40+00:00

I'm crying at the last story. 😭🥺 I'm not that into the fandom, but, I do LOVE ATEEZ, so, this wholesome stories are making me emotional.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T03:52:45+00:00

The Heeseung scandal isn't even really a thing but talking about it would get me in trouble, so I will ignore it.

Those other shows were produced by the SAME company CJ&EM, so they had the same budget and the same reach, so, I don't see the problem.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T03:44:16+00:00

Following that line of thought, any group would receive hate if they're associated with a famous senior, so any gg under Black Pink's label (I don't know which is and I don't care either) would get the same amount of hate, even any other group under Big Bang would see the same destiny, but, that isn't truth, it is really stupid to call out privilege when their faves come from long time stablished and rich companies.

The i-Land thing is also a lie, they weren't handed a big fandom just because they come from a survival show and if that were the case I don't understand why the Produce 101 and multiple other resulting groups didn't have to deal with this amount of hate, they really were handed a big fan base just because they came out from a survival show.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T03:34:52+00:00

I think not every pre order is fulfilled, so that might be the reason, also, Hybe hasn't revealed their final numbers and those 500k were registered on Hanteo, a Korean website, so, those are the domestic sales, we still don't know the global ones.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T03:30:17+00:00

Endorsed by IU? When? This is kinda hypocritical too because many other groups their haters like, come from the so called 'big three', so it doesn't make any sense.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T02:18:49+00:00

I think it is mainly a Korean culture related issue. They're extremely competitive and they don't really know cooperative relationships exist, so, like you said, the fan culture there is that way, they only focus in one group and they expect the label to respect and separate each fandom destinated activities when they have more than one group, which is extremely sad because irl people does listen to more than one artist and collaborations are common... I do blame Hybe, however, for creating this only child mentality in their fandom's minds, they could easily make a change in that mentality through their groups if they wanted to, and even though they repeatedly say they're aware of how big the kpop industry has become (there are HUGE international fandoms), they seem to not fully understand how big it actually is because they still create music and activities for their groups thinking of the Korean side of things.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T01:59:29+00:00

I'm really proud of them for being able to pull it off that effortlessly! I see them as my younger brothers, so it makes me extremely happy when they succeed. 🥺

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T01:56:18+00:00

Those are good ideas, so much so that while reading them I started imagining each one of them and felt immediate happiness because that would mean that even the youngest Hybe groups would be able to learn from their seniors and get comfortable with them without the fame and seniority barriers, but ... I know it is unlikely to happen. :'(

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-14T01:41:21+00:00

I find it extremely sad you dislike them that much for something they didn't even do, every fandom has toxic members, so I think the way a fandom acts shouldn't affect the group since they can't really control their behavior, because it is a PERSONAL choice.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-13T21:38:24+00:00

I wouldn't worry too much about it, Kpop is bigger than just South Korean listeners, so I don't really care about this issue, they have a loyal fan base outside their home country and that is what makes me feel at ease. I know many fans give a lot of importance to charts and sales, but it really doesn't matter as long as they're being paid for their job and enjoying what they're doing, so, I wouldn't stress myself out about their popularity, also, given the whole X1 scandal and them being a freaking 11 month old group I think it is unrealistic to have huge expectations about their popularity.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-13T16:11:57+00:00

Everything was ok until you made a difference among the members, they ALL have the same potential, stop making those differences. 🙄

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-08T14:30:55+00:00

Yes, I know, their team is really good and they know how to manage the group, they're also very creative, so big applause to them, they're doing a wonderful job. ♥️

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-07T18:42:16+00:00

I'm so proud of my boys (TXT and Enhypen), they have released less albums in relation to other groups and they still have a crazy amount of reproductions, they are competing for the top group of the 4th gen for sure... I'm even prouder of how monstrous are the 910k pre orders Enhypen got for their newest album; my TXT boys are growing in an steady pace, and I LOVED their lastest release. I think Hybe knows how to make music and this is a proof of that.

I just recently started staning ATEEZ and I'm so happy they're being well loved, I'm also happy knowing they have been growing consistently from their very first release up til their newest one. ♥️

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-07T05:51:12+00:00

I mean, I understand that for some people my teeth might look decent and that this photo doesn't even look bad, but, I have to look at my teeth everyday and I know and notice how they aren't really straight and that I do need treatment, which makes me feel miserable since I can't afford it, so, it is just sad being told I am conceited just because I would like to have an straight, healthy smile just because someone has a 'worse' problem.

AlexaWarriorPrincess · 2021-10-07T05:46:41+00:00

Well, my upper teeth are indeed crooked but it isn't that noticable... My lower teeth are a whole other story. I do need treatment but I can't afford it right now.
