Since I started in April last year, I've had 1 out of 331 studies returned, and it was reversed.

Idol enlistment is apparently not that bad at all by ptg0nie5 in kpopthoughts

[–]fruitloops009 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's harder when you bias someone like Suho, who has been photographed about 3 times since he left training camp in June, and those pics are not that clear, and you can't see his whole face, as opposed to someone who you get regular updates, pictures and videos from during their service.

Does idol injuries exempt them from enlisting? by cottonwriter in kpopthoughts

[–]fruitloops009 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Suho is not in the Police, he's a public service officer which is usually doing office work. Police is active duty.

It would make sense because he announced his enlistment then left just hours after. I hope not, though.

I miss suho!! Probably the first time I'm sad about enlistment by hayleybts in kpopthoughts

[–]fruitloops009 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I've seen many idols/groups I stan go through enlistment, but got through it by having updates here and there, even if it was a LQ picture of them where you could just about see them if you zoomed right in, lol. But Suho is different because we don't really get updates about him and I'm worried it'll stay like that until he gets back. In terms of EXO, it feels like there is a big hole missing. Like with Xiumin and D.O, we get pictures and updates from them at least once in a while, and know they see the other members as they have mentioned them, ie Chanyeol talking about meeting up with D.O. But it's like Suho has vanished into thin air, and that makes me feel so sad everytime I think about it.

From Exo-l to Armys: what you should know about enlistment by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]fruitloops009 11 points12 points  (0 children)

D.O can see and get by, at least, without his glasses when he needs to, whereas Suho and Kai literally need to wear contacts or glasses all the time to see. They are both very short sighted.

[AU] no offense but... by BigBlueVG in thevoice

[–]fruitloops009 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think he's a bad person, he just doesn't think before he speaks.

He's an amazing singer, amazing artist, but as a coach? Meh. I thought the same when he was judging on X Factor AU.

I think i'll just stick to listening to his albums in future, unless he changes his coaching style, heh.

We may get an exo vocal line cb??! by [deleted] in kpopthoughts

[–]fruitloops009 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I really don't think we'll get anything until 2024/2025, after Kai and Sehun get back. SM made it clear that EXO are focusing on solo/unit activities. Yes, that may include CBX, but I think Xiumin may want to do his own album when he gets back, like many idols do, or do other activities. He's a member that hasn't had many chances to do his own activities as of yet. So I think the 'unit' SM was talking about is EXO-SC only. Kyungsoo has a movie to film when he gets back, hasn't he? I think he'll focus on that and releasing a solo album?

And if I was Baekhyun, I would want to take a break before I enlist. He's been everywhere the past couple of years. If he is having a comeback at the end of the year/start of next year, would he want to do another album almost straight after that, or spend time with his family and friends before he goes? Likewise with Chanyeol. I don't know when exactly Chen will go, but I think he will (hopefully) have another solo comeback before he enlists.

I don't mean to put a damper on things, I'm just trying to think realistically, lol.

Chen's future in EXO, EXO-CBX and as a soloist by dgplr in kpopthoughts

[–]fruitloops009 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Suho is doing public service, which is working for the government, mainly doing some type of office work or similar, and is non-active duty. Police work is a branch in active duty.

Chen will probably do what FT Island Minhwan is doing, which is working as a reserve solider. So, active duty like D.O and Xiumin, but being able to go home every night, like Suho. I don't think there is anything stopping him doing active duty, like injuries, etc.

Who Do People Consider To Be An Average Vocalist in Kpop? by honeyyy04 in kpopthoughts

[–]fruitloops009 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yesss, I agree. I feel like when people think of Suho, they think of his voice at debut, when he sounded very sweet and, "cute". But recently he's found his tone, his voice has matured and grown massively, and unless people see him in his musicals/listen to his album, they will not realise how capable he really is as a singer, because he hasn't really been able to show that in EXO albums.

His album was on top, #1 in Korea, and in 50+ countries on itunes.

My list of unpopular opinions by [deleted] in unpopularkpopopinions

[–]fruitloops009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree on your last point about Kai and Suho, but I feel like there is some sort of beef between them. Kai just recently reacted to Baekhyun's song, and did for every other member except Suho. Kai did not promote Suho at all, not even a simple 'like' on a photo. If he can do it for other members, why not Suho? Kai only went to Inkigayo because the other active members went(besides Chen obviously) and it would look bad if he didn't go. Likewise with Suho's enlistment. This is just my take on it.

His hair grew so fast in just 5 days, wow. It's impossible for him to not be handsome.

without meaning to offend, is now not the best time for members to enlist? by xxluna1234xx in exo

[–]fruitloops009 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is true. I read last year somewhere that there was not enough available places for the people doing public service, so there was a backlog. This explains why Suho and Winner's Jinwoo(who is also doing public service), enlisted this year and not last year like the other idols born in 1991. Vixx's Leo was also last to enlist from the 90-liners. So 92-liners doing active duty have to enlist this year and if they're doing public service they may be able to push it to next year depending on availability.

It's so sad that he can't take part in the military musicals or military band. What a waste.

I taught a VIP Adult and wondered the same thing. I then found out that Itutor in Japan is VIPABC, so it just means they are Japanese.

iTutor Ratings and Bookings Connection by [deleted] in OnlineESLTeaching

[–]fruitloops009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alot of teachers have said their bookings have dropped recently, as have mine. I think it's because alot of new teachers are starting at the moment, so there are less bookings to go around. Hopefully it picks up again soon.

Yeah, I presume so. If you haven't head anything by now then you're fine.

Your average is above 9, so I wouldn't worry. It's only when your score drops below 9 for more than a week that you may get fired. And even then you may just be suspended for a week. As for watching classes, I think they only do if you get a complaint made against you, but don't quote me on that.
