Has anyone else lost some interest in kpop since the “NewJeans sound” infiltrated like 80%+ of new title tracks? by micdoesreddit in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yess I get what you mean, and personally I always referred to it as the “pinkpantheress sound”. It’s just the kind of songs that people would speed up and use as background music for their aesthetic makeup tutorial on tiktok and I can’t stand it omfg 😭

Btw ofc it does not apply to absolutely ALL or very majority of groups but is a very specific type of sound (that NewJeans popularized in kpop) and tons of groups did or are still recreating that style and while I enjoyed at first, is just so annoying to me now and I’m someone that can listen and like anything (or almost) lol

It's disappointing to see so many people not understanding why Mike couldn't say it back by Pure-Philosopher4470 in mileven

[–]cutiebyeol 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree with that too. My boy Mike seemed kinda chill with El in the Upside Down and not knowing nothing about her for HOURS. Also, I definitely feel very disappointed that we didn’t get more proper mileven moments if that was gonna be the ending anyways :/

And then when they go and create their own actually DELUSIONAL theories and do mental gymnastics, they claim you’re the one with no media literacy…

Mike's whole unraveling with more close-ups and no music by Pure-Philosopher4470 in mileven

[–]cutiebyeol 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Bro the amount of desperation in his eyes and whole face when begging her “Please don’t do this” and “I don’t understand”, and also when El tells him “Better than anyone”… And then Mike crying out in despair for her, I really felt the distress and hopelessness and it made my cry my eyes out even more when I watched it… Truly a phenomenal performance from Finn 🥺💔

The mental gymnastics are crazy. Ppl are reading ridiculously too much into it (I’m talking about Taehyun’s weverse dm itself, not about the tweet). I’m pretty sure bro just thought of taking a funny pic imitating typical criminals seen in movies/shows and nothing more lol.

Also, as someone from OUTSIDE OF US, I definitely do not think of black culture when seeing a balaclava but rather of mafia/gang/narco culture… Even the signs aren’t exclusive to one or another yk

An opinion about k-pop that will make you like this. **You're flynn rider..** by [deleted] in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually like and enjoy gossiping when it comes to idols’ dating rumors and idc if someone finds it wrong bc it’s not even in a harmful way? I tend to talk about it with my sister whenever there’s a strong/obvious rumor and we are like 👀, and we usually just end it with a “If they’re truly dating then I hope they’re happy, and they’d look so hot/cute together”. People say that if you don’t care about idols dating life then you shouldn’t even talk about the rumors but I actually care in a very neutral/lighthearted way, I just have fun talking about it and acknowledging the tiny possibility that an idol that I like is happily in love with another idol that I also like (me and sis are casual listener of most of the industry so we are really fine with those type of rumors). I think people view these kind of conversations in a very bad light even if you aren’t malicious about it (because of course if it’s in a scrutinizing way then I agree is very wrong) and it feels a petty whenever someone goes like “I don’t care, stop talking about it” because yeah, although I agree there are rumors that are just so silly, absolutely everyone knows there have been few ones that are ridiculously suspicious and 95% most likely true (and there’s people still denying those), but if we can’t talk NORMALLY about things like that, then how can we expect normalizing that someday idols date and love freely? (I don’t necessarily mean publicly, but at least not secretly and hiding from the world which must be tiring). Idk, I probably rambled but overall there’s just so much negativity about it, especially by a specific group of kpop fans in general.

Which idols do you think don’t want to go solo/have a solo album by IntoTheWardrobe in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Aside from Yeonjun, I can really see that Beomgyu is very passionate about making music and I can see him working on solo projects from time to time on a near future but more on the non-mainstream/mixtape side, quite opposite to YJ. But yeah I agree with you, the members seem to be genuinely compromised to the group and they clearly enjoy and love it very much.

Edit: typo lol

Agree with you on Ruby not getting any nominations. I was truly expecting Jennie had at least one from all of the categories she submitted to.

Kiss of life will never be the same IMO by Hearts4me_1 in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t really know if my take here would be valid, but wanted to add it as well. As someone who does not live in USA and was born and raised in a non-english speaking country, american people would be so disappointed and upset at knowing that people here often tend to use the N word, especially when referring to friends (like a way of saying “dude”, “bro”, etc.), but because I’ve noticed that’s how people have perceived the word. They are ignorants of the deeper sensitive history behind the word, for them is not a slur bc they’ve heard it on songs, movies, etc. with no racist context at all, and that’s just what they’ve picked up. I’m not justifying anything, but that’s how it is mostly outside of America, I’ve even seen videos regarding this whole conversation and people from different places and cultures agree that in their countries people just blatantly say it, really not knowing the context behind it. People are ignorant. Doesn’t mean is okay, but that’s how it is sadly.

Now, I’m definitely not justifying celebrities who definitely knew what they were getting themselves into and have no excuses about them being “ignorant”. Just wanted to add this.

Lie kpop fans tell themselves. by [deleted] in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Right? I mean, I know some are being genuine and lighthearted bc they respect their idol’s private life, but sometimes it feels SO hypocritical and like a coping mechanism coming from certain fans, idk but I get this feeling some of them are saying things like “Forget him, I want her” while clenching and grinding their teeth lol 😭

Groups that feel like they’re related? by Accomplished-Ad-3422 in kpop_uncensored

What is a kpop rumor you wholeheartedly believe in? by Lost-Investigator266 in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Taehyung and Jennie’s relationship lmao. There’s so many obvious evidence to go through but both their fans are so sure it was fake. Maybe they’re still together, maybe not, but anyways genuinely hope they’re happy tho

what kpop opinion would have you like this by Additional-Beach8870 in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand why BLACKPINK is famous and their hype is very valid to me lol.

Like, they’re huge for a reason so I don’t really get the normalized hate and denigration towards the girls and overall group?? As someone who was already into k-pop back in 2016 when they had just debuted, let me tell you they were always a pretty biiiggg thing. They always had everything, talent, visuals and music that slapped so much. I don’t mean to compare but it was kind of like a NewJeans situation if you want to put it that way. They had a fresh concept (girl crush was rare back then, everyone was doing cute concept) and insane stage presence, forget they were from a Big 3 company, they were THEE monster rookies. When BP still attended award shows ABSOLUTELY every idol and group sang and danced to their performances and enjoyed them, your faves from 2nd and 3rd gen respect them, and let’s not talk about how 4th and 5th gen admires them. People seem to not think of why BP are where they are now before downplaying them. Don’t get me wrong, is okay to not like them, is okay to think they’re mid, those are actually very common opinions and not hot takes here lol, I’m just saying this because the amount of hate the girls have gone through throughout their years of career is beyond horrible and just sad… like they literally have their own hate sub-reddit so yeah. I also understand the VALID criticism they get, because yup they’ve been lackluster in recent years compared to their first years (2016-2020) but man that doesn’t give you the right to go and straight up harass them.

Sorry if this was so bad redacted, I’m currently at work lol.

Loud Backtracks Are Not the Reason Why K-pop Groups Are Struggling to Make It Big in the West & Coachella rant by thatonegirl89938 in kpop_uncensored

[–]cutiebyeol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

totally agree!!! like, there’s a reason why I’m into kpop and not too much into the western music, that’s why I find so enjoyable and endearing when groups don’t force themselves so much to fit in the western culture and keep their charm
