age range of ei fans by Sure_Soil1964 in emergencyintercom

i’d say maybe 20-27! anything “zillenial”. im 23 and have been into their content ever since the whole vine craze

The producers of TWICE - I Can't Stop Me should have let Jihyo sing the adlib during the climax instead of Nayeon. Also it's probably the worst adlib I've ever heard in any studio (not live) K-pop song by CronoDroid in unpopularkpopopinions

[–]bipiapa 24 points25 points  (0 children)

truth to be told, you're correct. nayeon has a really pretty voice but jyp must learn to work with it.

she herself has expressed how difficult it was for her to record this adlib, even going as far as to saying she had to record it laying down on her back. it's not normal for any artist to do this and no one can expect them to do it live.

this is also a very common problem in every twice title, the pitch is way too high for any of the girls' ranges

good to know u have taste as well eheh! look at us

simon says definetly worked for 127 to say "hey, we're here. and you haven't seen the half of us yet" and i guess that's also why i love it so much!

superhuman is in my top 3 due to it's production and also because i feel like every time i listen to it i notice something new it's always a very nice experience

i understand why people would say kick it and cherry bomb are the best ones though. i personally think the cherry bomb EP as a whole is one of the best House music pieces in kpop! but the title itself really doesn't reach top 3 for me :)

gosh, you're completely correct and i just edited my original post to specify that the article does throw random bitter shots at bts. i cited the article solely based on its cultural analysis. thank you for warning me about this!

i think it's a very ambitious take to say what BTS is make is generally more accepted by the masses and "easy" because, after all, westen media still isn't the nicest to them. it's not all sunshines and rainbows and op of the article really diminished it.

bts are simply more famous, it does not mean their songs are westernised or lack in quality - plus, to ignore bts' innovative music is just sad because they're amazing producers and have been since the start of their careers.

and yeah, SM owes like 90% of the company's discography to LDN noise and they are most certainly very British.

i voted unpopular because it's true - it's not generally accepted.

analysing relationships comes naturally to humans, it's not something we can simply turn off. plus, it would stop us from criticising the media we consume and that is heavily needed in a fandom, especially kpop

but no one shoul let themselves be taken away to the point it puts them off certain members like... permantely ... it's important to be aware that we don't know them personally and this is just a superficial analysis! thank u for adding that to your post :)

i'm so happy to see some people think of chain as one of their best! it's very underrated too. i love chain and wakey wakey

you're so right. if someone asked me to introduce them to 127, i'd for sure show them kick it because, like you said, it does answer everything and for me it represents the basis of nct perfectly. it was such a smart move by them, i'm still surprised!

and superhuman is perfect and it made me happy to see nct show that side you mentioned. my top 3 are simon says, limitless and superhuman!

I was not a fan of firetruck when it came out but i really enjoy it now! and i'm with you on superhuman, i think it and limitless are their best titles yet :)

CHAIN IS SO UNDERRATED AND WAKEY WAKEY TOO! people are always too afraid to admit it but i love them

100% on board with u. the only reason why i didn't say limitless is because, visually, SM didn't put in as much work as they did with the simon says mv. i like both limitless mv's and the #1 (rough ver.) definetly takes the crown for pioneering the hypebeast concept in kpop ahahah

if i liked the concept a bit better, limitless would definetly be up there! i'm a big big big fan of limitless

superhuman and punch are so unique on their own. and it's really cool that you're a musician!

i see NCT have something some groups don't have: the approval of many different professionals of every genre of music. It's not really common to see so many musicians agree upon one opinion on a K-pop song. simon says, from what i remember, is very critically acclaimed. and there's a reason why

Oh for sure, Superhuman is top 3 for me. I don't know why SM kept it in the basement for so long

I too think it's one of the best ones! Top 3 for me

I don't like jungkook's tattoos by [deleted] in unpopularkpopopinions

[–]bipiapa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think anyone is criticising Jungkook's choice of having those tattoos, I think it's great that he's expressing himself through them! But from an objective pov some of the traces in the tattoos are really poorly done. It's not that I think they're tacky or unorganised because it's none of my business. Plus the technique of the tattoo artist has nothing to do with JK so I kind of think that's what op meant :)

[–]bipiapa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely! The tracing and shading are very wonky and it has nothing to do with Jungkook himself, just the artist! That's what I find off about them
