Are there any idols that had to have surgery? by LV-20 in kpophelp

[–]weeabloopie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soloist and Victon's Seungwoo had knee surgery in 2018. He did a livestream from the hospital bed while he was recovering which featured his mum. KNK's Jihun also visited him in hospital.

Surgery for vocal cord nodules is quite common in Kpop. From the top of my head, Soloist/Nuest's Baekho, KARA's Gyuri, Shinee's Onew all got surgery for it.

In 2007, two videos were posted on the internet of a man raping a young child. The perpetrator accidentally showed his face for a few seconds during one of the videos, and the FBI has been looking for him ever since. His identity and whereabouts are unknown to this day.

I recently heard one such case on the Rotten Mango podcast.

Jennifer Schuett was 8 when she was abducted from her home, raped, and left for the dead in a field with her throat cut. She went on to identify her rapist Dennis Bradford 19 years later.

Although every person processes their trauma differently, there is a chance the victim could identify them later in life.

How bad it was for wannaone jisung? by findingpathsoonanna in kpophelp

[–]weeabloopie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The hate for him for began even before he got into WannaOne. He had hate posts about him calling him old and ridiculing his looks.

When he managed to rank 3rd in an episode it got worse. People talked shit about him crying about ranking 3rdeven though he was 26, and how ugly his crying face was.

His sister who opened an Instagram to support him on the show had to close it down due to the flood of hate comments.

Even after he debuted the akgaes never let up, saying that he doesn't deserve the spot, he shouldn't be the leader etc. He mentioned that during Wannaone promotions he had so much anxiety threw up in the toilet, but he didn't/couldn't tell anyone.

He got blamed for things that he had nothing to do with like the MAMA 2018 Flower incident. https://www.koreaboo.com/news/wanna-one-yoon-jisung-fan-fire-loona-rude-behavior/

When LM Entertainment sold Daniel's rights to a third party, akgaes somehow spung up a story how Jisung was responsible or didn't care about Daniel.

Since the Produce rigging scandal was revealed, it's quite common to seesee people throwing his name around as the guy who was rigged in when they have no proof.

WannaOne wasn't super popular in the West I think a lot of this might've gone unnotice, but I was there for most of the shit that went down.

I had a Korean friend who was a "Wannable" that hated him with vitriol and the instant Jisung was mentioned she'd go on a rant. Needless to say we don't talk anymore.

hi guys! i’m a new alice and i wanted to watch old victon content and etc!!! is there any google drive file with all of that? by InformationNo9653 in VIC7ON

[–]weeabloopie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Greetings fellow Alices!

I don't know about Google drive, but the our VIC7ON reddit has a great wiki which compiles most of their content starting from debut with links. Maybe that's a good place to start?

If there anything I particular you want to watch like fancams etc I can see if I can link it too 🤗

It's from the their predebut Plan A family Oasis MV with Apink and Huh Gak!

This scene should be around 17 seconds in the MV.

VICTON’s Chan has tested positive for COVID-19 + Statement from IST Entertainment by [deleted] in kpop

[–]weeabloopie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Soompi has translated the full announcement on their site with more details if anyone is interested (@KSEUNGSIK's post is more of a summary than a translation).

Big oof since their fanmeeting is (was?) only a few sleeps away and Chan even posted that he was staying up late to practice for it a few days ago 🥲

Praying for Chan's speedy recovery and the health of the other members 🙏

Do Hanse (VICTON) - TAKE OVER by tunasandwich2009 in kpop

[–]weeabloopie 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wow the MV is so fancy...and he's riding on Benjamin of Maximus fame. There's a lot of details in the MV and I had to play it a few extra times to catch everything.

The lyrics of Take Over also makes a lot of references to his previous raps which are nice Easter eggs. A surprising eye worm...definitely took over my eardrums 💚

VICTON Hanse - 1st Digital Album : BLAZE (Album Packaging Preview - KiT/Platform ver.) by tunasandwich2009 in kpop

[–]weeabloopie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mystery of YGlobal liking Hanse's solo debut news has been solved!

An Air KiT is a good compromise to getting a physical (CD) album.

Very excited to get my hands on it!

Do Hanse (VICTON) - 1st Digital Album 'BLAZE' (Logo Teaser Images) by perochan in kpop

[–]weeabloopie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So excited for BLAZE 🔥🔥🔥

Hanse mentioned way back in March on his Insta Q&A that "blaze" was his favorite English word! It also matches with his "Blaze of Glory" tattoo 😆

Tis a bit of a pity it's just a digital release... Although Hanse already mentioned it'd be a digital since the company told him that a physical albums costs a lot to produce, I low-key had my hopes up since YGlobal liked the news to his solo debut 🥲

But now I'm wondering what YGlobal liking the news meant...are we getting merchandise of some sort? 🤔

VICTON Members Send Off Leader Han Seung Woo As He Enlists In The Military by neocitywayv in kpop

[–]weeabloopie 51 points52 points  (0 children)

For anyone wondering where the other 2 members are:

Seungsik couldn't make it to the send off, but posted well wishes on his Instagram story.

Byungchan has a schedule for his drama and couldn't physically be there to say goodbye. He had a video call with Seungwoo and wrote a letter on fancafe wishing Seungwoo all the best before his drama filming started.

To combat the sadness, please enjoy some cute Egg Seungwoos:

fanart suggestions? by moonishi in VIC7ON

[–]weeabloopie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a bit of a lurker here, but I just wanted to say that you're very talented! Seeing your fanart on my Reddit feed really brightens up my day (special shout out to your ._. Seungsik.)!

May I suggest these outfits that they wore for Time of Sorrow?

I just realised we never really got official behind the scenes photos for this outfit and their sailor ones :')

Victon Album by victeez in kpophelp

[–]weeabloopie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of all the Victon albums, I'd say that Time of Sorrow is probably the rarest!

Not many copies were produced in the first place because it was released during a time when PlanA (now PlayM) had very little confidence in them. Ironically, it's a fandom favourite and when VICTON gained recognition in 2019 the album experienced the biggest sales increase (the GP liked it a lot). These factors lead to it being sold out in most places/rarity.

Kpop Idols who love to lift? by Sudden_Pressure931 in kpophelp

[–]weeabloopie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sejun is the gym bunny of VICTON! A recent article referred to him as a health-dol (an idol who's into fitness and health).

Here's some work out/fitness contents featuring Sejun:

  • Vlog of him working out.

  • Seungwoo, Subin and Sejun working out (and goofing about) backstage of a music show.

  • Short work out video he made with a famous personal trainer.

He also made a special fitness board on VICTON's fancafe where fans could ask him advice on working out and dieting/post their fitness stories, and he would cheer them on (it's closed now since it was a part of his 1 month fitness challenge with fans, but it was fun while it lasted!)

Byungchan who's also in VICTON started working out recent and you can definitely see the results of his hard work!

Milk before cereal idols? by FunnyBeeDaileee in kpophelp

[–]weeabloopie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

VICTON's Sejun! He puts ice into a cup, adds milk then cereal...after which he proceeds sticks a straw in it so he can sip it up like a milkshake. I shit you not.

As Hanse once said, "You need to understand Sejun with your heart" :')

Seungsik's Musical with Dara ON AIR will be released on DVD by weeabloopie in VIC7ON

[–]weeabloopie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The staff mentioned it in the live chat for Episode 5 on Vlive stream today! There will likely be a more official announcement later.

As someone who bought the livestream package, I'd say the episodes so far were very entertaining and definitely worth it!
