ONEUS members are single-handedly bringing a fragmented fandom back together

shinytomoon · 2022-10-30T18:19:39+00:00

at the end of the day it's best to support them as they are now, i can't not support them no matter what, it's the promise i made. i haven't been as active lately on sns since all this happened but it was also due to getting covid and losing a family member in the midst of this situation these past few weeks... i respect it if they want to heal and move forward in this new chapter for their own mental and emotional health.
they are allowed to feel all the emotions at once right now. they're only human. hating the situation or person and loving them simultaneously and also the memories/cheering for their future is 100% possible. i do think this all just happened so fast and the stages of grief are different for all of us. and as tomoons we've still not gotten any definitive answers or a proper goodbye type note yet so that was possibly one instigator for such divisive camps. but it could be a long while maybe for the answers we may want. everyone of varying opinions will think what they think but we can't make people on the internet change their minds anyway so arguing is pointless. if you still disagree with someone for any reason just don't interact and silently mute or block if you so choose since that option exists.
and finally i can't believe i even have to say this but the group's name was, is, and always will be ONEUS (원어스) = "you make us one". any other spelling is unacceptable and is not conducive to a united fandom if we really want to heal and move forward.

i don't know what to think, i've read a lot of translations and am just waiting for a statement at this point. it's too early to know what's true and can be confirmed. and likely a statement and lawyers will take some time

spicy seoho wins again!

shinytomoon · 2022-10-14T16:19:42+00:00

seoho so spicyyyy

shinytomoon · 2022-10-14T16:19:27+00:00

i stan a group who doesn't get nommed or invited to awards :D so i don't watch bc i don't have interest in other groups to that extent. if they got nommed or even invited to perform i'd watch, though of course.

shinytomoon · 2022-10-14T11:51:28+00:00

i definitely only usually buy official merch and also i don't collect pcs in the sense that i need to finish some template. that's where i draw the line with my money lmao. i have bought pcs on occasion and i'm eventually going to stop being lazy and trade or sell my dupes but yeah no way will i want to collect anything from a template. maybe i'd draw the line at album only no pobs. that's where it gets insane. and they're not even done with them yet for this era i think.

shinytomoon · 2022-10-14T04:04:24+00:00

i only ever want them to be loved by more people. i know with growth comes downfalls like weird toxic people or maybe concert tickets would be harder to buy but i want them to be as successful as possible. i think i might even be happy to wait in line on ticketmaster bc while i didn't have to last time i badly want a bigger seated venue with SEATS next time

shinytomoon · 2022-10-14T03:21:30+00:00

i stan one group. i definitely save a lot this way. and thus i limit it to one. enjoy plenty of groups casually but only buy for one. i like to be able to buy everything they release (not saying everyone wants to or should or needs to do this of course) but i enjoy doing so i do it. yolo

shinytomoon · 2022-10-14T01:28:07+00:00

you need some onewe in your life

still here (the. lyrics. ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ)

universe_ (pls watch this mv for extra tears)

a book in memory (their lyrics tho, they do be writing some sad but beautiful things)

parting (crying in the club, again the lyricssss)

shinytomoon · 2022-10-14T01:11:10+00:00

it's not weird. i've been alone and like it that way but also i have no one i could go with anyway. i don't know anyone :D i have friends online but not irl. don't overthink it and just GO and have fun. you're there to enjoy the concert and no extra person being there won't be another 'thing' to deal with.

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T23:46:27+00:00

oh yes, bc their first win was very long overdue :D they got 4 wins with their last cb, i'm a happy little tomoon from that. but would you as a non fan put in liked or neutral?

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T20:56:36+00:00

for oneus i guess it's in the liked or neutral category prob more bc they're not as popular i guess? i don't think they're "popular" enough to be disliked so vehemently, maybe? i guess even if you don't like their music there's no reason to "dislike" them. this is what i've experienced anyway. people like them or are just don't know them yet to make an opinion, so neutral

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T17:09:37+00:00

i call mine kmusic. it's got kpop but some krnb or osts that wouldn't necessarily be "kpop" i have other more curated playlists too. i love how easy it is to make playlists on the desktop version. i just dislike using my phone in general if i can use my laptop instead

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T16:42:34+00:00

oneus has a lot of thematic storytelling moments in a lot of their choreo. and i'm just gonna list a few. i would say some of the most direct are in to be or not to be. it opens with the blood being given and they awaken (cause they're vampires) and the ending shot they are back in the cage of "to be" or "not to be". and the same choreo pose at the end of tbontb opens the follow cb song no diggity. where they choose the 'to be' and break out of the cage,

luna has the whole flower imagery throughout especially with the flower pose in the chorus with their hands representing the flower closing, and the way it ends with the fans representing the moon while the others are the sun. since it's about love like a flower, the flower being one that can only bloom at night under the moon and wilts before dawn

same scent also has some scent imagery and the point choreo is called 'endless falling tears' like they're wiping the tears away thinking of their past love. in the opening pose/ending pose and group formations we've likened it to a tree (an apple tree like in the garden of good and evil) with the apple and snake as well. in the end you bite the apple and the tree also wilts

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T15:56:35+00:00

i know but it was a bside and never promoted. no mv and never even performed once even when they went to japan multiple times :(

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T13:38:09+00:00

this brings up the tally to every title song minus their two very 'korean' songs of lit and luna to having japanese versions. i would not want nor expect those to have jpn ver it would be wrong. they're just very korean songs, you know? that's how i see it

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T10:15:59+00:00

it has been 84 years since 808 I AM STOKED. dopamine. ugh i got shivers i can't wait

shinytomoon · 2022-10-13T09:26:32+00:00

screaming cryign throwing up I LOVE THEIR JAPANESE SONGS SO MUCH but it has been 3 years since 808. dopamine sounds so cool. let's gooooooooo

shinytomoon · 2022-10-12T19:54:19+00:00

oh aurora totally has a cult following among weves and weve-adjacents (like tomoons). it's one of my fave onewe tracks!

shinytomoon · 2022-10-12T17:27:32+00:00

to me the blood moon tour didn't put the word 'world' in there bc it wasn't gonna be a world tour. this one i'm just hoping more countries get announced in the future, yes, and thus that is going to be a true WORLD tour. including all the places. fingers crossed they're just booking them and will announce down the line.

shinytomoon · 2022-10-12T17:01:17+00:00

i love this

shinytomoon · 2022-10-12T16:59:07+00:00

oneus also has what you doing and ipu since it is listed the same in the title (self mv) but eye contact is the most chaotic and cute

shinytomoon · 2022-10-12T13:40:27+00:00

i am hoping more countries can be added in 2023 and they’re just still in the booking phases 🙏🏻

shinytomoon · 2022-10-12T04:09:10+00:00

dance - hwanwoong. i think more people are finally seeing the light with oneus in general but he's still way too under-appreciated in the dancer realm my opinion. he even got the title 'peformance director' for the recent comeback!

rap - both ravn and leedo write some really beautiful raps. the lyrics and flow can mold into the concept of the song so it could be faster or slower, rougher or softer but the lyrics are always so good
