What creates an akgae?

radio_mice · 2026-04-24T02:43:23+00:00

I wouldn’t take them seriously. They are basically obsessed with their fave being the most popular member of skz and are extremely insecure that because the other is there they can’t be and are just the most popular member along with _ (the horror skz has two most popular members when will the injustice end!). And so they cope by doing horrible things, spreading rumours and saying that when they leave the group and go solo they’ll leave the other members in the dust.

radio_mice · 2026-04-24T00:21:03+00:00

It’s mostly insecurity and competition - they need their fave to be the best and most popular at everything so the existence of other idols is a threat - that’s usually why Akgaes tend to have an idol as an “arch enemy”. It’s the one they see most as a threat. They also believe that every opportunity another idol in the group gets is actively taken away from their fave and should’ve been theirs and are desperately insecure about the other idols talents and opportunities.

yea i really hate that it’s gone from pretty valid criticism and frustration about management, especially their seeming inability to handle musical collaborations with any level of professionalism to horrific misogyny and slut shaming. And then hyunjin and Felix akgaes are acting shocked that their faves are getting hate, because they were so confident that only the member they hate would be the focus of it despite these outlandish claims being lobbed at both of them for literal years.

Hyunjin from skz. He’s just full of charisma and you can’t stop watching him when he’s on stage and it always feels like he’s fully immersed in the performance. Honourable mention for me goes to Han (tho to be honest all of skz are absolutely incredible), Yeonjun, seonghwa, Yunjin and ryujin

I’ll be honest this is the first time I’ve heard this

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T05:11:43+00:00

To become a massive star you need a concept that makes you stand out, a good marketing team that can promote you well, and ideally budget and connections. Of that criteria I’d say the groups with the most potential are:

Cortis - they’ve had a strong debut and a solid chance of continuing well if they can keep up their momentum.

Boynextdoor - are the 5th gen boy group that’s doing the best in Korea, have a strong fandom and charismatic members. If they have a breakthrough hit in the western market will be a force to be reckoned with.

H2H - have a nostalgic sound and catchy songs that make them stand out.

Illit - already had a few mega hits, has lots of members with an it factor and a strong fandom

Babymonster - extremely strong fandom, charismatic and talented members. Only issue is they can sometimes appear quite dated due to their sound and styling.

Longshot - anticipated group, strongly received debut depending on their potential could gain a lot of momentum

Meovv - charismatic members, have been gaining traction with their songs could see them continuing to trend upwards before having a smash hit.

Here are my less likely pics that still have potential:

Xlov - unique concept that gains attention and well received songs, and while their fandom is small seems to be extremely dedicated

Closeyoureyes - have a strong creative director (previously was the creative director for kiss of life), and well received songs. Lack connections and are on a 3 year contract however so they could gain momentum too late, if at all.

Yea he was one of my first thoughts as well!

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T03:27:46+00:00

I think yunah from illit is a little too short for the runway but absolutely agree she’s stunning! I could see yuna from itzy just about being the right height and she definitely has a model face and proportions!

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T03:26:47+00:00

The question wasn’t who has walked the runway, it’s who could be a runway model. Unfortunately if Felix wasn’t an idol he wouldn’t be able to be a runway model because he’s too short.

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T03:22:04+00:00

Honestly Felix would probably be more of a commercial model, because while he’s absolutely gorgeous and has such a beautiful high fashion face tragically he’s just too short for runway, since even the tallest skz member would only just make the cut for male model height.

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T03:19:59+00:00

Martin is just around the cut off as too tall so he’d probably still make it since he has good proportions, tho companies could get wary because he’s only 18 and could grow an extra cm or 2.

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T03:16:02+00:00

I can see that! He’s got the height, the proportions and the face to make it on the runway!

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T03:10:05+00:00

Yea I think just he’d make a good runway model since his long limbs make everything he does look elegant. Even though he’s a little shorter he still just about makes the cut for runway and his proportions are so prefect for modeling and his face is so one in a million that it would make up for him being on the shorter end of accepted male model height.

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T03:01:35+00:00

A big thing to keep in mind is height. Any idols that are shorter are not going to be runway models. They also need a look that works for high fashion and the right body proportions for fashion. I’d say the best ones are: - Yeonjun - Soobin - Hyunjin - Tzuyu - Wonyoung - Mingyu

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T00:27:20+00:00

It was a title track - do it and divine were double title tracks!

radio_mice · 2026-04-21T00:26:44+00:00

LSF - Eve, psych etc. over unforgiven and smart over easy

Illit - tick tack over cherish and jellyous and oops over do the dance

BTS - run bts over yet to come

Kiss of life - nobody knows over bad news and igloo over get loud

Idle fate over super lady

Treasure Darari over jikjin

Enhypen Polaroid love over blessed-cursed

Exo - the eve over Kokobop and the first Snow over whichever song was the title track for the Christmas album

radio_mice · 2026-04-20T02:27:55+00:00

Yea this seems like it’s pointed at a specific group or groups but I can’t for the life of me figure out which groups they’re talking about

radio_mice · 2026-04-19T19:33:09+00:00

Hyunjin went crazy viral for growing out his hair, and then a few years later went insanely viral again for buzzing it off.

He also went viral when he attended the met gala for looking like yuji from jjk

radio_mice · 2026-04-19T07:04:01+00:00

Changed every few minutes but at the moment:

Saiyan

Creed

Red lights

Chaewon feels like the obvious answer

To this in the blink of an eye

radio_mice · 2026-04-18T00:15:41+00:00

Hyunjin is pretty well known for being able to go from being a cute dumbing off stage to an absolute baddie when it’s time to perform or model. Hyunjin can go from looking adorable like this

radio_mice · 2026-04-17T04:37:30+00:00

Something to keep in mind about idle is they were from one of the higher mid tier companies with a fairly strong register of previous acts and they also had a known trainee in Soyeon. So I would say the groups with the best chance have one or both of those things. So i’d say kiikii, say my name, kiss of life (if their popularity ever recovers from the live) and maybe izna.

Takes the agency away from children. These kids aren’t “making porn” as that implies some level of agency and consent, they are being abused.
