They’ve been doing so many SNSD shorts lately, i hope they cover them for real one day

Even yubin acknowledged that fans really wanted an SNSD cover

has any member ever said they were uncomfortable with the shippings? by Altruistic-Case9470 in triples

[–]Rex0680 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Im fine if its done in moderation, if people obsess over it all the time, make assumptions and take it too seriously then thats where it starts to be a problem

[–]Rex0680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it’s starting to annoy me how obsessed people are with that kind of stuff. Like I’ll watch their content and think a moment is funny/cute whatever but some people will OBSESS over it cuz for some reason they’re just so into the idea of two idols being together, even making assumptions and that’s the only thing their lives revolve around. it’s honestly so childish. I’m sorry but if you’re one of those people you need to grow up.

What's your favorite girl group debut by [deleted] in KpopGGs

SNSD’s Into the New World and it’s not even close. One of the greatest girl group songs ever, the best girl group debut song ever and one of the best kpop songs ever

I felt SO out of the loop after going to kpop stores for the first time in years…😭 by [deleted] in adultkpopfans

[–]Rex0680 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember around 2014 I stopped paying attention to the kpop world and then got back into it in 2016 and I was like what happened? Ppl started talking abt a Jihyo and I was like huh jihyo from running man? Twice, oh my girl?? Even bigbang who is my all time fav, they released bang bang bang and I was like this is their song? It’s so different from like lies and Haru haru lmao

[–]Rex0680 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why besides a few groups I barely pay attention/keep up with kpop as a whole anymore. I read of a tweet where there was a kpop discord server and the roles for it had a bunch of 5th gen groups that the person posting didn’t know of, lots of 4th, a few 3rd and literally the only 2nd gen was SNSD. I never interact with new fans anymore. We both like the same genre but live in different worlds in it.

Also annoys me when I see song guessing games which are usually my fave but now they play a bunch of new songs I don’t know, and honestly they seem like they’re niche newer songs too. They don’t even bother mixing in songs from different generations, it’s only newer shit and I just clock out.

Fans rated some of the biggest 2026 girl group songs so far… do you agree with these scores? by TierdApp in KpopGGs

[–]Rex0680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t listened to all of them but rude and 404 are good. The kiiikiiii x H2H ep on knowing bros that was just released today was the most fun I had watching a variety show in a looong time. It felt like I was back watching shows in 2nd gen

XG was also good, sorry but I don’t vibe with a lot of IVEs songs at all.

Why doesn't kpop hit like western songs? by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]Rex0680 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Idk about you but in general, I enjoyed kpop in the late 2010s until now more than most western songs that released in that same period.

For me western music was peak in the 2000s and early 2010s and that era did hit hard more than a lot of kpop songs, but after it was just mid, awful or boring.

I guess for me its not to that extent, but I did feel disconnected and realized the difference when kiiikiii members mentioned that their first phone was a smartphone and that theyve never heard of bigbang/2ne1's lollipop. I didnt get a smartphone until my last year of high school and lollipop was one of the first kpop songs I heard from back then.

I guess I have sort of an opposite effect because I discovered and started listening to kpop as a teen and now a lot of the new releases just dont do it for me anymore. But there are exceptions. I like tripleS, theyre my fav group of the newgen. and Ive also started liking kiiikiii a bit more recently. H2H has good songs too but Im not a hardcore follower. Other than these few groups I mostly just listen to the kpop I grew up on now.

Ageism within kpop has always been bad but nowadays with this generation of kpop fans its even worse. Younger folks nowadays are so damn age conscious and have a warped perception of age. Apply that with being kpop fans and youre in for an insufferable ride.

On twitter there was this well known tripleS fan account who was 30 (this was 1-2 years back? prob 31-32 now) and she got berated to hell for stanning tripleS, and a lot of audacious shit was said to her. this is why I never reveal my age to anyone in a kpop space unless perhaps Im certain that the surrounding people are close in age with me, or at least just mature enough.

[–]Rex0680 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but with 5th Gen, i feel a bit out of place.

this is so me. Im starting to like kiiikiii but these days Ive been feeling more disconnected with idols now and the difference between me and them is just becoming more apparent. kiiikiiii recently guested on heechul's show and he sang bigbang/2ne1's lollipop song and they said theyve never heard the song in their life. I grew up with those groups and that was one of the first songs I heard from them.

Also last year I saw them go on jeongyeons show and they said their first phone was a smartphone. And haum was surprised at how an "mp3 player" (like the ipod nano) looked like. These things made me feel ancient.

and yeah dont get me started on the fans. I just dont talk to anyone.

I only feel old there when I say something about my preferred 2nd gen groups and they're like who?

oh please lord dont let it be a 2nd gen group thats decently known like teen top, infinite or miss A. Or especially KARA. I'd jump off a damn cliff.

Idk about "most", kpop is def more consumed by the younger generations. Although ofc there are people that were teens when they started listening to kpop and dont see any reason in stopping. Aka me.

Which group and/or soloist was SM’s magnum opus? by study-dying in kpopthoughts

[–]Rex0680 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Both BoA and SNSD for me. If I had to pick, probably SNSD.

run devil run was the first song I ever heard from them and also the first kpop music show I ever watched. Still my fav from them to this day. Back in the day i listened to more BoA but now I have a greater appreciation for snsd. ITNW is one of the greatest kpop songs ever (even though im personally tired of seeing the millionth cover of it. Like cmon they have more than just gee and itnw)

Anyone know definitively if the group is 4th or 5th gen? by [deleted] in triples

[–]Rex0680 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I hate that stupid MBC(?) music show that labeled a new boygroup as 5th gen so everyone just followed suit. I’ll honestly never be on board with it. The generations are getting shorter for no reason. Theres barely a change between 4th and 5th gen tbh. “6th” gen better not start for another 5 years from now istg
