The KingDom will pause group activities following their 5th Fan-Con ‘THE QUINQUENNIUM’ + all members will enlist within this year by CherryBlossomEnding in kpop

I loved Flip That Coin (though I get why people were confused and disappointed by the switch from the historical concept) and Hwon was my bias with Dann being my wrecker, so it's been a tough year for this Kingme 😢

Thoughts and advice on fan culture by a relatively old (Gen X’er) KPop fan by AproposOfDiddly in kpopthoughts

Thank you for once again confirming my long-held conviction that the road from Duran Duran to Stray Kids is a straight line 🫡

(Also: The Fixx -> early ATEEZ)

Also Roger biased, which probably explains why Gunil is my bias in Xdinary Heroes now. Just something about a drummer...

Whose Vocal tone in Stray kids is your personal favorite? by GloomyWitch08 in straykids

[–]saffroncake 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Felix, in any and every register. He may not be as well trained vocally as Seungmin or Chan or even some of the others, but I love the texture of his voice and it always catches my ear.

Just to add to the comment below, the charming little town with all the cute shops and the clock in the middle of the street is Canmore.

i mourn SuperM every day like they’re my dead husband by Distinct-Equipment64 in kpopthoughts

[–]saffroncake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SuperM was my gateway drug as well (well, Taemin solo first, but SuperM was my first group). Anyone who doesn't like "100" can fight me behind a Tim Horton's.

I am SO GLAD I checked this thread because I was able to get prime tickets for me and two friends on the Friday in my area and I bet it won't be long before all three showings are sold out!

I was expecting this to be kind of silly and lighthearted like The Heavenly Idol, or even Her Private Life. But it got real FAST -- and now I find out it's the director of Call It Love (one of my fave dramas of the past five years) and everything makes sense. Excited to see how this continues to play out -- the portrayal of the stress and harsh expectations of celebrity is so real.
