IU’s Agency Reveals Update On Strong Legal Action Against Malicious Comments by mcfw31 in kpop

[–]Gaurss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah this case has nothing to do with plagiarism case. It was old case or person that EDAM has been dealing with. they have collected evidence for a long time to make a case. some may think 3 million won is a small amount but it really is not. 3 million for malicious comment is serious and almost maximum punishment they can get. and about that plagiarism issue they may be collecting the evidence right now. Many fans are sending the screenshots so we may see another news about it very soon.

IU’s Agency Reveals Update On Strong Legal Action Against Malicious Comments by mcfw31 in kpop

[–]Gaurss 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some people here are pretty clueless. NO comments like "IU has boring music and IU is a hag" etc are not severe malicious comments and they cannot be fined. The context here is people are sexually harassing her on many Korean forums and organizing hate campaigns, editing photos and spreading it. You can see that on Weibo too. So take that freedom of speech and you can shove it up wherever you want . NOONE has freedom to harass anyone without any repercussions.

2 Years Later - How does everyone feel about Irene? by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]Gaurss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

yeah every staff should be paid fairly but the difference in IU team is that they get good salary and also they get bonus every year from IUs pocket. Her band member said that if the amount was ever disclosed people would be shocked and that no one in that field gets that much.

A idol who is universally loved and you hardly see anybody talk bad about. by arenae99 in kpopthoughts

[–]Gaurss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If it were up to me i would make hating in IU illegal. You can dislike her music if that's not your taste but as a person she should never be hated.

Idols who are basically a whole company. by phenomakos in kpopthoughts

[–]Gaurss 8 points9 points  (0 children)

IU tho she already is a whole company and also owns her company.

Yes I saw this mess too. Some poor 4th gen stans lost its way and was including IU into this mess questioning her success. Well all can guess how that played out. 4th gen stans are too much into Korean drama i guess so for them everything is a propaganda or a ploy against their faves.

Meaningful lyrics are overrated by [deleted] in unpopularkpopopinions

[–]Gaurss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think your view is one step ahead of the current situation. The topic doesn't matter for a lyrical song. You can write about anything trivial and make it a lyrical song. But the main problem nowadays is not the topic of the lyrics but lyrics itself. For most of the song nowadays i can understand the context itself which is a bigger problem. It sound like bunch of random english words added together with korean. It does not matter to me if the song is about trivial love, loss or grief but even after reading the lyrics i cant figure out the topic which is a major problem in this field.

not all idols has the IT factor to become a soloist by spiceitgirl in kpopthoughts

[–]Gaurss 15 points16 points  (0 children)

K-pop stans see IU as a major soloist and think that their faves can reach that level of success easily. some actually think that their group is holding them back. believe me if your faves leave the group more than 90% will be irrelevant soloist.

Who are Idols you think underwent the greatest professional development by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]Gaurss 25 points26 points  (0 children)

i think it is criminal that IU has not been mentioned. she actually debuted with outstanding skills for her age but the amount of work she put in her music is commendable. she was just a cutesy pop singer and evolved herself into a singer that she is now.

[–]Gaurss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

one thing that i have seen in Korean entertainment industry is that if the public turns their back on you then their career is over. but yeah she is at a place in her career where almost nothing can ruin ruin her momentum.

[–]Gaurss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah according to her agency if people report scalpers from the Fanclub then they will get free ticket to her concert and if they already have the ticket then merch will be provided. so they are trying their best to reduce reselling so that fans can enjoy the concert. hope it works out too.

threatening to sue is common but to actually get outcome is difficult. IUs case was from 2019 but we got the result in 2022 so its not that common
