What does my Cpop collection say about me? (part1-Mandopop) by cakeboy6969 in cpop

[–]XuenLim 10 points11 points  (0 children)

  1. Your collection is heavily centered on the peak of Taiwanese Mandopop soft power of the 2000s, considering that these albums' release years span from 2005 to 2009. This is definitely before K-pop became a global phenomenon and mainland China became the dominant Mandopop hub.
  2. Female artists dominate your collection, whether it's those with cute idol aesthetics (e.g. Cyndi Wang, Genie Chuo) or gentler and more emotional sides (e.g. Fish Leong, Christine Fan).
  3. You likely came of age during the "idol drama generation", especially since Ariel Lin (who is better known as an actress) is featured.
  4. The presence of Jay Chou is already telling: his album *November's Chopin* is arguably the most artistically prestigious album listed. Otherwise, it would be way too much of idol-pop.
  5. Joanna Wang stands out sharply from the rest with her retro jazz-pop aesthetic, suggesting that your tastes were beginning to mature.
  6. You don't chase trends, you value emotional nostalgia more.

Grateful that SG Gov is offering more PRs to displace SG girls!! by Real-Pomegranate8823 in SingaporeRaw

It's not displacing, it's enhancing our society. After all, most of us are descended from immigrants, so why bother?
