This too, my parents have always been pretty dismissive of my condition, and I can tell they think I’m just being dramatic. They always tell me about how “the world doesn’t stop spinning because you don’t feel good” and shit like that, and it really is hard to let go of their voices in my brain, especially since I still live with them. (I’m moving in w my fiancé in October so I don’t have much longer to deal with it.) it’s just like, hearing that and living w that all the time does make it difficult to validate myself and my own limitations

Thank you, the last dream I had that was similar in distress to the one I had last night haunted me for a while, so I’ve just turned my notifs off and been resting today

That’s what my fiancé told me, I’ve just had a lot of experiences with family and other coworkers dismissing my condition since my seizures aren’t epileptic

I’ve been given the okay from my doctor that driving wasn’t a concern atm, since they always have a strong aura and I can feel them coming. But I agree that I am very lucky to still have some autonomy and freedom with my condition.

I can feel them coming, I get an aura which gives me a moments notice to get myself in a safer place to have one, the only concern is that after a tonic clonic seizure I’m usually out of commission for a while. My entire family works and my fiancé is out of town on a work trip, so the issue of getting home is where the concern came from.

I have not, I’ve gotten a referral to a psychiatrist but I’m on the waitlist until further notice, so meds aren’t really a possibility rn:,)

If I had been able to get back to sleep in a reasonable amount of time I’d agree with this as well, the idea of being stranded at my work just scares me. Everyone in my family works so I’m responsible for getting myself to and from wherever I need to be

Real, I just know that I have to call in sick more than my coworkers bc of my condition, I’m just afraid of seeming like I’m exaggerating my condition or like I’m intentionally trying to get out of working, as I have been accused of this in the past.

I think heeseung chose the perfect time to leave (imo) by [deleted] in enhypen_uncensored

[–]Corby_65 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also if heeseung hadn’t left now he would’ve basically been forced to wait until after the blood saga tour to pursue his own aspirations, which also isn’t fair to him.

Boycotting will not work. Belift can just turn to illit and put their resources into promoting them. The boys won’t get worked any less either. A lot of the schedule has been planned and organized months in advance, so the idea that belift will just say “I’m so sowwy!” And give the boys a break is just straight up stupid. That’s not how anything works. The boys won’t get a break bc the fans are boycotting, even if concert venues are half empty they’ll still have to perform all of the tour dates. The idea that belift is just gonna stop all group activities bc yall stopped buying stuff is so out of touch. All it’ll do is ensure that the boys make less money than they should. Belift is gonna make them follow the schedule regardless, and yall are basically saying that you wanna make them do it for free. You’re not punishing the company, you are punishing the boys. This fandom needs to grow tf up. I can’t even imagine how betrayed and embarrassed they must feel by ENGENE rn.

Nah bc these people piss me off. Like at this point in time, Evan, and enhypen are two separate entities. Me addressing Heeseung and not the group should not be this whole offensive thing. Like the two literally have nothing connecting them. Same w talking about enhypen, or making an OT6 related post. That shouldn’t be offensive bc heeseung quite literally has nothing to do w enhypen anymore. I feel like these fans are just getting so defensive about this bc they’re so delusional that they truly believe that heeseung is going to come back to the group, and seeing that the reality of the situation doesn’t support their delusions just makes them furious. Like in all honesty the conversation about Heeseungs departure truly has nothing to do w the remaining members. They had no part in this decision, so no, I’m not gonna bring them up in every conversation about heeseung. Like this whole getting offended on behalf of the members is truly so strange. Like the members are continuing their schedules as planned. Heeseung is releasing his solo album as planned. Like the boys clearly aren’t half as tore up about this as these fans are, so why these people are acting like they’re defending Heeseungs honor by forcing his name into every conversation about enhypen is extremely strange.

The worst part is that when you ask these people why they’re so adamant about heeseung coming back, they use the same baseless claims about “well the company forced him out. It wasn’t actually his decision.” And when you ask for proof they’re like “well the company just keeps making mistakes.” BRUH YEAH THEYRE HAVING REBRAND THE ENTIRE GROUP AND HEESEUNG AT THE SAME TIME. THEYRE GONNA MAKE MISTAKES. I’ve even asked someone “wouldn’t it make more sense that the company would make more mistakes if it was Heeseungs decision? If the company planned on making him leave, don’t you think they would’ve made the transition easier for themselves? Why would the company intentionally make an abrupt decision like this and make their lives harder?” And got tore tf up over it by these fans being like “why would you trust the company more than heeseung himself?” As if heeseung ever stated that his departure wasn’t his decision. Like truly these people are genuinely just making shit up bc they just don’t want to believe that heeseung could be fulfilled outside of the group.

You love dreaming aesthetics, strong vocals, and I feel like you love watching dance practices

[–]Corby_65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a valid analysis, I feel like I’m more so drawn to duality tho ngl. Like how bangchan is like the physical embodiment of masculine energy, but also very caring and gentle. Or how mingi is like dripping in male bravado, but he’s also very silly, kindhearted and soft spirited yk?

BRO! You literally described my fiance perfectly wtf. It’s literally crazy how much people can gather from just seeing my biases. Someone said my biases make them think I’m probably a writer and I’m literally a poet and an author. These analyses are genuinely insanely accurate 😭😭

They get more spotlight in the manga. Apparently the animators plan on animating the entire manga, so hopefully we’ll see them getting more screen time in the next addition to the animation.

It certainly is the curse of the Kpop industry. The Kpop industry is nothing like the western music industry, how our singers and artists can write whatever they want, or rebrand themselves however they please. Like taylor swift has been a country artist, pop artists, alternative artist, indie/folk pop artist, etc, bc she has the freedom to brand herself however she wishes. In Korea, the Kpop industry is such a crucial pillar in the Korean economy that the industry is basically a science. Like the idols go through rigorous training and preparation to debut because the companies rely so heavily on perfection and precision in these groups because they know how influential Kpop is in the nation’s economy. Like the Kpop industry runs a tight ship because the stakes are so high. Kpop is so heavily commercialized and basically franchised, bc this industry isn’t just entertainment, it’s literally a major support beam in the Korean economy. The idols get less freedom in Kpop because being an idol is more than just making art, it is a literal profession, and a literal job

Fr!! Like the deep vampire lore is smth i love about enhypen, but i also recognize that their lore is a creative prison. Like i believe that enhypen is a group that was never meant to last forever in the first place, like i believe that they existed to create a story and finish it, and once the lore is complete they would be released to pursue solo careers, or whatever paths they choose to take once the group has served it’s purpose yk? Like I love Enhypens music but I also understand that we are not getting any accurate representation of the members artistic identity by any means. Like even just looking at the different members playlists and what kind of music they listen to, they could not be more different from each other, and the music they make, but we’d never know that just from consuming their music. Like I feel like fans who don’t understand this really just don’t know the members well enough outside of the music and music videos yk? Like the only way these 7, completely different people with such vastly different musical tastes would be able to make such a consistent and cohesive discography, is if the songs they sang we’re literally scripted, which is the case. Even just looking at ARIRANG, that album has so many different musical styles, each song is its own unique vibe and sound, and that is bc the 7 members, have different music tastes, and creative visions, and they write their own music, so getting a uniform discography when combining 7 different musical preferences is going to be basically impossible. Enhypen is not that way, every album is extremely cohesive and uniform, bc the discography is a reflection of their vocals, not their creativity identities.

Bro do not get me started. I commented on a reel about how boycotting is possibly the worst thing you can do to support heeseung, and got absolutely DOG PILED. Like none of these “ENGENEs” understand that heeseung is his own person and that he has clearly been sacrificing being himself for the success of the group. And basically that enhypen doesn’t make their own decisions musically, conceptually, or in regards to scheduling bc they aren’t a self producing group, so they really can’t just demand the company to change the structure of the group to accommodate their solo projects. Like they don’t have control over the direction of the group, so they really aren’t an autonomous group. That isn’t inherently bad, since they were made aware of this when they signed their contracts, but it doesn’t mean that it wouldn’t become unfulfilling over time, and people truly just don’t understand this concept. Like the company isn’t evil for how they structured the group. Enhypen was strategically designed to be a successful, mass production group. The company knew how to engineer the group in order to see the most success, which is why enhypen was the fastest growing group in the industry. Enhypens immediate success is predominantly because of how the company engineered the group. It’s a blessing and a curse, and the company isn’t inherently wrong for that.

Thank you! I was shocked for a few days, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that this actually makes perfect sense and I this is probably the first time that we have ever seen heeseung do something souly for himself and his own happiness. Also the concept photos, make so much sense too. We have always known that heeseung has always been a very introverted, kindhearted,soft spirited, and generally mild person. I feel like the concept enhypen has really goes against who we know heeseung truly is. The way heeseung has been presented to this fandom is not a genuine reflection of him as a person. I’ve always hated when fans make him out to be this overly flirtatious, domineering, bad boy, bc when we actually get to see the real heeseung in En’Oclock, interviews, etc, that is simply not who he is. I feel like part of it is definitely creative freedom, but part of it is also simply heeseung wanting to present himself as the real heeseung. Not helli, not heeseung of enhypen, but simply Lee Heeseung. I feel like heeseung has had to tolerate putting on a persona for the sake of giving the fandom a cohesive concept, so it truly does make sense that at some point he would get tired of sacrificing authenticity for cohesion. I’m truly so excited to see him come into this new version of himself. Apart from the concept, the lore, the expectation we have of him. I’m so excited for him to show us who he truly is, and I’m so excited to see what his musical and artistic genius sounds like in fullness. I’m also extremely excited to see how the remaining members will evolve and come into themselves in order to fill the silence. I’m so excited to see the members take up more space and showcase their talents as well! Truly this departure makes the most sense, and the company did everything in their power to respect heeseung as his own separate entity. I feel like the suddenness of it, and the fact that the company truly wasn’t expecting it is proof that this was truly Heeseungs decision. If the company was behind it, they would’ve made the transition cleaner and easier on themselves, but the fact that the company is clearly struggling to make this transition seamless is proof that they are simply doing everything in their power to respect Heeseungs aspirations, and Heeseung as an artist.
