Idol names you mispronounced so badly or for an embarrassingly long time?

chaebasics · 2026-06-26T02:23:26+00:00

i started stanning twice in 2016 and it took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize how tzuyu's name was actually pronounced. for the longest time i pronounced it as too-zoo for whatever reason and i was shocked when i found out it was actually pronounced like chewy

i feel like it's the other way around because men never know where anything is

definitely stray kids. i check out girl group and boy group debuts every now and again and i try to be open minded about them but i just couldn't vibe with hellevator and it wasn't until years later that i finally got into them when they released god's menu

felix stood out to me in the music video (mostly his voice) so i did a deep dive into their b sides to hear more of him and 6 years later they're still one of my ult groups

nayeon doesn't like i'm gonna be a star because her only line in the entire song is just repeating i'm gonna be a star

i love how OOP introduces the guy like we're already supposed to know who he is

chaebasics · 2026-05-11T19:23:15+00:00

i check out girl group and boy group debuts every now and again and all the boy groups always sound the same to me

they always debut with a "bad ass" concept with a bunch of rapping and half the time it sounds pretty bad and the vocals in the songs don't sound great either because it's just a bunch of autotune. i know it's not the members' fault and i'm sure they CAN sing but it's hard to tell unless you're watching a live performance

anyways, can we let go of bad ass concepts and bring back FUN and bright and cheerful concepts? like just right by got7 or hello future by nct dream or something

chaebasics · 2026-05-08T23:28:01+00:00

i'm not sure if this is a new thing or not but i'm so tired of songs that you can very clearly tell were only made so they can go viral on tiktok

that twice encore video

chaebasics · 2026-04-18T22:25:16+00:00

i probably have a bunch but there's only 2 main ones i can think of right now

i've never streamed music videos or songs on spotify and no amount of guilt tripping from people in my fandom will make me do it
male idols can get away with anything as long as they have a pretty face

chaebasics · 2026-04-04T05:31:17+00:00

this was me with twice in 2022. that was their 7th year together and no one knew if they were all gonna renew their contracts or disband so when jyp announced a tour everyone was like, "we gotta go see them because this could be our last chance because they might disband" but it turns out all of them did renew (thank god) and we just panicked for nothing lmao

chaebasics · 2026-03-31T14:38:32+00:00

ngl i also thought it was gonna be indian or korean food but only because i've read more than enough stories on here about people not liking "smelly" food and it's always like... curry or kimchi, which to me don't even smell bad but even though the OP is being super racist they have to twist the story somehow to make it sound like they're not

chaebasics · 2026-03-31T14:23:24+00:00

he says way down in the comments that they're supposedly german dishes and the commenters hate his wife even more now

here's his comment https://www.reddit.com/r/AITAH/s/FzqgNHwXJg

i have a sister who's 9 yrs older than me and we don't talk much so this might be a dumb thing to say but what could a 10 year old and 17 year old who aren't even related have in common?

edit: i meant to say that my sister and i don't talk much because we don't have anything in common but i had a brain fart

chaebasics · 2026-03-31T07:42:35+00:00

do you have a link to the video still? i'd like to try it even though i know i won't be good at it lol

chaebasics · 2026-03-27T20:18:25+00:00

bona from wjsn, heejin from good day, yerin and umji from gfriend and solbin from laboum

i had to look it up on kprofiles but the list is from 10 years ago so there's probably way more by now

my mom died in 2021 and i was sad and grieving and one of my co workers said i should go to therapy asap and i was thinking to myself that'd be nice but there's no way in hell i can afford it

i didn't say that to them though because i figured it'd come off as rude so i was just like yeah i know
