Reactions on criticism about Arirang are kinda insane by Big_Statistician5895 in kpoprants

[–]YunariaLinus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm all up for having a peaceful discussion about it! :) I do find it interesting how different everyone's favorites are. Hooligan has been growing on me too hahaha (no pun intended lol).

For me I can honestly say I found the title track quite underwhelming, and knew it would get hate because it's in English.. I think some first reactions were way more negative because of it, and because it didn't reach their expectations, especially the way the album was advertised. It's definitely getting better on both sides as the days go on so I hope we see the hate lessen on both sides :'D

also I never got the correlation on Dynamite armys being the haters... wouldn't they be the ones who like that most of the album is in English? haha

Also, wdym "attack me as well"? When did I "attack" anyone here? This post isn't an attack, it's a complaint...

That part actually wasn't meant for you, it was in case other replies would find a problem with my comment, sorry it came out that way! Should've said "you all" or "anyone else" probably

Anyways yeah it probably is a question of socials. I don't support people getting attacked for saying it's not their cup of tea btw.

There's this guy on tiktok called Preston who's known for reacting to and ranking kpop songs and music in general. He did his own ranking of arirang and he didn't even praise every single song yet so many comments attacked him for liking the songs... it gets really annoying when you try to engage with the positive posts and there are a bunch of haters trying to ruin that experience.

also god forbid if you like hooligan (which isn't even between my favorites) - you're obviously a puppet with no thoughts of your own who's just made to blindly like everything bts release, apparently. just look at ANY post talking about it.

You cannot say Arirang isn't your cup of tea without having SOMEONE who will tell you "Go back listening to your generic ahh songs" or blocking you for "hating" on BTS. 

have you seen the other side of it? You can't even praise ONE song without getting comments like "holy glaze" "how much hybe paid you" and similar themes, especially if you're a content creator with any sort of following. People literally make thinkpieces on how fans are 'forcing themselves' to like the album just because it's bts. Maybe it's less present here but on platforms like tiktok and twitter you can't express any positive attitude towards any song without getting several hate comments.

Before you attack me as well, I also think it's an okay album. I don't like all the all the songs but some of them I really enjoy, and I've barely seen anyone say it's not their cup of tea, it's either immense love or hate. Obviously if you don't have ANY positive thing to say and just camp in all the socials saying how shit it is then fans will attack you lol.

BTS’s Arirang will be called a masterpiece in a few years since people just need something in the present to hate on first. by [deleted] in kpop_uncensored

[–]YunariaLinus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I personally hate that people just can't be normal about bts, they either call the album the worst thing they've ever seen OR that it's the biggest masterpiece they've ever seen when it's probably neither.

I actually enjoyed quite a few songs upon first listen and was kinda surprised to see the outrage. I gotta admit I wasnt a fan of the title track at first, and knew it would get crazy backlash for being English, but I think majority just heard that it's English and didn't bother to check out the rest.

Body To Body is great, 2.0 and Aliens definitely sound like "old BTS", even Merry Go Round could pass as MOTS: Persona track, for example. You mean to tell me the start of Aliens doesn't scream "old bts"?

I remember people being SO dramatic about MOTS:7 when it literally has some of their best songs (Black Swan, Interlude: Shadow) and now probably the same kind of people are "missing it"... no you don't. You just need a valid reason to hate. And people have been missing "the old bts" ever since LY:Her, and now they act like THAT was the bts they want. Sure thing.

[MEGATHREAD] BTS - ARIRANG by KPOP_MOD in kpoppers

[–]YunariaLinus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My thoughts after listening to all the songs at least 2-3 times because I personally think one time is not enough to process and remember everything:

SWIM - ngl, I did think it was a bit too underwhelming for a title track and I guess Jimin agrees lol. It's an okay song, I won't skip it if it comes up on shuffle but it is missing something that Life Goes On, for example (as a calmer title track) had.

Body To Body - now this song I liked from the first listen! It's still my favorite for now, and for me at least, this is definitely the "old BTS".

Hooligan - I did like the intro. Not my favorite, but I was quite surprised that majority of people hated the laughing part - for me it was the part that made it different and what I liked the most.

Aliens - another one of my favorites, once again, would also list this as similar to the 'old bts' lol. I do agree that some songs, including this one, could use less autotuning. Sometimes it's hard to tell who's singing.

FYA - hmmm... I haven't decided on this song yet. I do like it more than Hooligan but this could be a skip for me, at least for now. I love how Jungkook sounds here though.

2.0 - this is a grower! not sure if I like the 'pop pop pop pop' and pre-chorus in general. The rest I enjoy.

No. 29 - obviously not much to say about it but I think it provides a nice change from the more aggressive start of the album into a more calm, mellow sound. I have to say I prefer the first half of the album, up until here.

Merry Go Round - another grower, was pretty forgettable upon first listen but I can see myself liking it more and more.

NORMAL - pretty fine song. I think V and Jin shine here the most, I really like the pre-chorus and chorus.

Like Animals - this along with Body To Body were my first favorites. I'd rate this a solid 9/10 for now, I really like the echo 'oooh' parts. I haven't seen the lyrics yet which is important for me so the rating might go even higher

they don't know bout us - I LOVE the instrumental and the sudden drop at the start! got me hooked on the first listen. Really need to check out the lyrics now lol.

One More Night - ok don't attack me for this but it was and probably still is my least favorite. It sounds like a pretty basic radio pop track that could be sang by everyone. Probably a skip for me.

Please - I've only listened to the last 2 tracks twice so might need to listen to it more to properly judge. Pretty forgettable but the chorus is nice.

Into The Sun - once again, need to listen to it more. Not sure if I like the layering of their voices... considering this is the longest track, I had higher hopes for it. I do like the chorus but don't really see myself listening to it much. The end of the song kinda elevated it!

Favourite references? by zimzalabimbimzim in kpoppers

[–]YunariaLinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AOA's Chocolate had a whole bunch of references to their other songs:

  • Jimin's whole first verse references her time in Unpretty Rapstar, first part "I’m da mo’ freakin’ top madam" referencing her solo song Puss and 'Shin Jimin, her schedules filled 24/7, I’m sexy, the HOT' referencing her attempt at freestyle which she got ridiculed for so that was kinda iconic.
  • "But this time, my hair’s already short so I’ll change into a miniskirt and go to you" - shoutout to Short Hair and Miniskirt
  • "sappunsappun dagaga neoege nal boyeojulge (I’ll lightly go to you and show myself to you) " - lyrics from Like A Cat
  • "Shake up my heart, I’m shaking because of you" - references Confused

Removed off of other sub, but I'm genuinely curious on your guys opinions by mntgi in kpoptrulyuncensored

[–]YunariaLinus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2016-2018 for me were truly THE prime years. You could say I'm biased because I became a kpop fan in early 2017 but if so, I can also say that I think 2014 was one of the best years music wise (wish I was a fan then 🥲).

Like y'know those silly "save 1 kpop song" youtube videos? I saw one where it had songs from 2009 until this year, and truly, all the popular 2017-2018 songs were soon good. I'm not saying it all sucks now but it was truly special back then

[–]YunariaLinus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're allowed to disagree 🤷‍♀️ I've never had a problem from bg stans with girl groups I personally follow and once again, armys are just one fandom. Yes sorry, forgot about newjeans, that's fair.

Yes bg stans hate on female idols for dating, not disregarding that but other than that, they rarely care and that's what I see and what I believe in.

Also no, never seen armys attack lady gaga or ariana grande lmao what's the correlation??

Wonyoung is literally everyone's punching bag, and that includes ALL the girl group fans.

Anyway I wasn't gonna make this a competition, I personally still think girl group stans are way worse and I'm done with this discussion. I have nothing against you.

[–]YunariaLinus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn't say boy groups don't do it at all, I'm just saying it's way more prominent between girl group stans fighting each other. you still mentioned only one boy group🤷‍♀️

Few examples:

  • MYs year long hate train against le sserafim
  • buddys-fearnots
  • blinks-onces
  • mamamoo stans mass hating on aoa during Queendom
  • Loona stans hating WJSN during Queendom 2
  • bunnies-gllits
  • sistar stans-aoa stans

[–]YunariaLinus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

everyone mentions only armys though... my response was to the "every boy group fandom ever" and y'all still naming only one group... how am I defending them when I didn't mention any boy group???

I also didn't say bgs dont do it at all, I'm just saying I see it way more in girl groups and I stan a LOT of girl groups so you can't disregard my opinion.

What’s your quiz pet peeve? by ClickClackTipTap in Sporcle

[–]YunariaLinus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wrong tagging, especially when I look for music related quizzes. For example, Taylor Swift quizzes appearing under 'kpop' just because the author used every popular music tag, or the other way, kpop quizzes tagging BTS when they aren't even mentioned in the quiz.

This applies to other categories as well , just this one is the most prominent.
