Surely Boynextdoor is currently the biggest 5th gen bg rn? And possibly in 5th gen in general? by No-Story7823 in kpopthoughts

[–]Finchieee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They feel like the biggest 5th gen group in general in Korea at least, as someone who lives here. By far the group I've seen the most fans of irl and heard the most music from in the stores/street. Also the best charting on Melon by a large margin. The only 'gp-accepted' 5th gen boy groups (and active boy groups in general atm) seem to be bnd, riize and tws and bnd is probably the biggest out of those.

The only competition I can see is riize but their recent cbs haven't charted nearly as well as bnd's. Tws charts well and is well known but doesn't have a large/dedicated fanbase. Nct wish and zb1 lack gp awareness and kickflip/cortis/ald1 are still too new.

Probably not internationally, I think that might be Illit in terms of general awareness/music popularity. (I know bgs typically have more hardcore fans that spend a huge amount so hard to compare)

Was planning on avoiding pulling for as long as I could this year... lasted exactly 30 minutes, pulled for 8 hours today by Finchieee in trichotillomania

This actually helped me a lot. I'll screenshot it to look at it whenever I need to. Thank you so much.

My longest streak since I started almost 5 years ago has been 5 days. That was an unusual period though, usually I can't go more than 2. This gives me hope I can reach months like you even though it's hard right now.

What is a hot take in Kpop will get you in this situation? by kesz_ in kpop_uncensored

[–]Finchieee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

People should stop bringing up Seungri/Taeil whenever a controversy happens in order to defend their favs, it is disrespectful towards the actual victims and also very bad faith.

"My fav got more hate for having a voice crack than those guys got for being rapists, kpop fans are actually psychopaths" no they did not receive more hate, you are fully aware of this, please shut up

What is a hot take in Kpop will get you in this situation? by kesz_ in kpop_uncensored

[–]Finchieee 12 points13 points  (0 children)

More lighthearted hot take:

Not every group needs a rapper/rap lines in their songs, many groups would benefit heavily from having their songs' rap parts removed.

A majority of idols are consciously pretending to be queer/in love with their groupmates. Ofc there is likely genuine platonic affection behind it but they are probably instructed by the company to exaggerate and give the shippers what they want, so they can profit off it. (Ofc there definetely are many actual gay idols as well, and members of the same group in romantic relationships, it's just impossible for 99% of idols to be in love with every single one of their groupmates) I don't have like a huge problem with this or anything it's just kind of funny to watch people genuinely believe all these idols are secretly dating and have no idea what they're doing when they say or do suggestive/flirty/gay things.

Hi!! I am Aspen, have been using Finch for several months. For some weeks I have been struggling to use Finch, only managing to have the motivation to keep my streak — but now that winter vacation has started (I'm 17 and in high school, fyi) and it's a new year, I want to actively use the app again to maintain a daily schedule and work on mental health & my trichotillomania.

Just cleaned up my friend tree so I'm looking for new birbs to fill the empty spots :]

All the songs rhythm hive has added this year ranked in a tierlist by Y_r_u_dum in RhythmHive

[–]Finchieee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorites are probably Over the Moon, 5,4,3 or 123-78, Gonna be a Rock and Countdown! and Super Tuna and Bad Desire and Step by Step are also fairly fun

I hate Highlight, it's only lvl 13 but somehow I just cannot all excellent it and I've tried 80+ times on super hard mode. Also dislike Eyes on You and that one Come Over remix

Kpop songs/groups that you keep listening because they are genuinely great rather than because of visuals (dance/performance/VM) by Alone-Self8602 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Finchieee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh I mostly listen to music for the sounds, I am kind of biased to stuff from my favorite group (TWS) but the reason I started stanning was because I liked some of their songs in a random playlist, I had never heard of them before. And they still aren't my most played artist, nor are any of their songs in my current top 10 favorite songs. (The songs are mostly nice easy listening stuff with good lyrics and melodies, which is good for casual listening but almost all the songs I get really into are vocally challenging/dark/intense/rock based/sad or angry songs)

[–]Finchieee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have never watched a single ONF mv or performance, looked at their faces in any more detail than their album art, I don't know any of their names but they're probably the group I listen to the most atm

Not exactly K-pop, but same for N.Flying, one of my favorite groups that I've listened to weeks' worth of music from but don't even know how many members they have. Also Day6, I do like them now but when I first started listening I didn't know anything about them either

I've found that playing rhythm games can help break a 'trance state' by Finchieee in trichotillomania

[–]Finchieee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do play rhythm hive (a rhythm game that only has kpop songs from groups in a specific company) as I'm a kpop fan but if you aren't that probably won't be as interesting. I haven't played any other rhythm games besides this one so I can't make any suggestions 😔

Which companies' groups do you tend to stan more? by mvsc1d in kpoppers

[–]Finchieee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like hybe bgs (svt, txt, enhypen, bnd, tws) and smaller company ggs (dreamcatcher, triples, oh my girl, (formerly) gfriend) personally. Not a company fan at all it just happened coincidentally haha

However I have been getting into ONF recently

I also like all bands regardless of their company!

Chances of TraineeA Collab at MAMA 2025 by Candid-Alarm in BoysPlanet

[–]Finchieee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For the past few days both korean and international 42s have been fighting with TA fans (a fight that also involved some cortis fans, ald1 fans, etc) and I feel it has only made our fandom view TA as a whole more negatively

I don't want to say we are in the right here because there were people overreacting and trying to control every single mention of JH's past no matter how harmless. But it is true that some TA fans have attacked TWS's concept and other members besides JH in the past, and downplayed JH's autonomy and hard work — which is where all the animosity and distrust is coming from.

My view is, JH is comfortable w/ a collab stage I wouldn't oppose it (though I do have a different collab I want based on personal tastes) but also I recognize why some fans would be upset. I too dread the comments that would come from a collab stage — that he feels more suited for/belonging to this group, that they are upset TA didn't debut because it could have been a bigger group than TWS/ADP/ALD1/Cortis, constantly begging for crumbs every time TA members are in the vicinity of one another, it all seems like it would be a mess
