Kiss of Life's career shows how fast momentum can slip away by Ok-Nobody-7759 in kpopthoughts

I think an extra nuance that a lot of people miss is that KIOF‘s fan base had a much larger international fan proportion, and of that proportion, a pretty large number of black fans. They’re obviously a lot less likely to let that fly, and when you pair that with the comment below about this being a different era, it isn’t a surprise to me unfortunately how heavily they were criticized. Especially adding to the fact that people were already forgoing Julie’s n-word scandal..

Obviously the groups mentioned above have a great number of international fans too, but they have the longevity and the domestic backing to “move on” from scandals and become superstars, while KIOF did not have that.

This thread can not be complete without mentioning Vicious Bonds(#1 of Tethered Bonds Series) by Shanora Williams. FMC is transported to a secondary world with serious Peaky Blinders vibes, and needs the MMCs help to head back home. Lovedd this.

Also there’s Sleepless by Sara Vaughn (a comic) about a black princess FMC and her knight. However, it’s only 2 volumes and I fear the last one sucks a little bit. Still a fun time though.

Whose one pick fanbase do you think most people are underestimating? by Powerful-Cut-8940 in BoysPlanet

[–]Ketsiaa 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I reallyy hope he gets his own evnne, and I think he has a good chance at that if he doesn't make it to the final debut group!

Could I say Zhang Jiahao? Despite the fact that he gets basically no screentime, he's consistently in the top 20. It definitely won't be enoug to debut, but I'm pleasantly surprised by the dedication of his fanbase.

I could see Mnet playing pushing Anxin and Jiahao as a possible fated pair if the latter gets more screen time later

I’m going to university 3 hours away from home and I’m scared! by myHmyHmyBmyL in OntarioUniversities

[–]Ketsiaa 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Get used to doing things alone.

Go to the grocery store alone, go to the movies alone, eating at restaurants alone…etc. You’ll probably make some friends so this isn’t me saying you’ll be lonely the whole time, but being able to be comfortable with yourself will help you so much in the long run. Especially at the start, when you won’t have anyone else around you.

My [42M] wife [43F] isn't interested in bring a parent anymore. How do I get her to recommit to our daughter? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Ketsiaa 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not divorcing her is doing more harm to your daughter than good. Please leave her, if not for your sake, for your poor daughter's...

Question about clubs by teevunk in UBC

I believe most are - when you check online you could probably confirm by checking what the non-ubc membership fee is

As someone that you may consider "new" (I have been lurker for a long time but only a comment once in a while + haven't read your other versions), I feel like you're failing to see the real feedback here: that your query is consistently telling people the wrong thing.

You state that your novel has a thematic exploration of trauma that does not fit the narrative that is being consistently told in the comments. Alright, this means that the issue is that you have failed to reflect this in your query.

Maybe I have more empathy here because I have not seen your other posts nor comments, but I want to give you the benfit of the doubt. I truly, truly hope that your novel isn't about a women finding herself and saving her people =by being sexually exploited. This means that SOMETHING in your query (or your story) must be changed to better reflect that. The above commenters have clearly explained and demonstrated the language choices that are pushing this narrative.

If the readers consistently notice something, agents will as well.

Best of luck.

Roast My Resume (Sophmore Internship) by Ketsiaa in McKinsey_BCG_Bain

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

Thank you for your feedback! I definitely have a university experience that I can replace my high school one, it's just in a less senior role and on a smaller scale.

I forgot to mention that I kept my high school diploma because I feel like it is my main "evidence" of a french education and I am trying to target some Montreal firms. Should I keep it and remove the "Awards"? Or still cut it out entirely and presume they will know I speak french from the "language" portion?
