remember when running man used to pull the weirdest most random combinations of idols from like 10 different groups in one episode and it ended up being the best episode ever
the sad thing is these kids literally do not know each other. no joint stages at festivals, no promos with other groups on varieties, no collaborations, and it doesn't help that most of them started out during covid. i just miss best friendships between idols of different groups.
kdrama stans see a pic of seohyun and go "she's an snsd member????" or they see a pic of yoona and say "ko miho is in snsd????" but wait until they see this video
apink are SO annoying they brought their own mics to sing live for a 2-minutes medley on a variety show because they're fucking singers who sing i can't breathe
stanning 2nd gen really changes your perspective on kpop completely because it's insane to me how i'm seeing 4th gen stans who legit think snsd or sones would be bitter and mad at a rookie group over a music show win. y'all truly don't understand the generational gap AT ALL.
there's nothing to fight over. covering jessica's lines is not "erasure", she's not there anymore so someone has to, snsd has 8 singers who are perfectly capable of that. missing her voice is a personal feeling, saying tiffany can't sing is a blatant lie.
2nd gen was successful because the companies put 0 effort into promos so idols were sent on every variety ever to keep their group's name alive. no social medias just "go on star golden bell and make up a funny story that'll make people laugh otherwise you ain't eating this week"
it's apparently a thing where new kpop stans call 2nd gen groups 'privileged' just because they were successful.... bitch what privilege are yall talking about 😭 yall have not seen/heard the things 2nd gen groups have been through and it shows
a 2nd gen girl group comes back after 7 years and the first joke they make on tv gets an entire 3rd gen fandom mad lmfao the generational gap is so embarrassing we really mean it when we say none of y'all would last in a 2nd gen fandom😭
the sad thing is these kids literally do not know each other. no joint stages at festivals, no promos with other groups on varieties, no collaborations, and it doesn't help that most of them started out during covid. i just miss best friendships between idols of different groups.
i don't care if i'm being dramatic you don't get it this was hyukjae's first concert after his break and it means the world to me that, other than the sujus of course, he got to spend time with friends who made him smile thank you thank you i love you
i don't think y'all get how weird it is that you're concerned about the age gap between two mcees at an award show like you do realize it's absolutely not normal to immediately see something even remotely sexual in two people quite literally just standing next to each other
people surprised that GOT's line up includes so many great vocalists as if sm didn't literally throw taeyeon, tiffany, seohyun, jessica and sunny in the same group 14 years ago
elfs, vips and blackjacks figuring out the entire seating chart of that wedding from 140p videos and pics because that's how we were raised i'm so proud
yesung, sungmin, kangin, hangeng, ryeowook, siwon, leeteuk, kibum, shindong, henry, donghae, heechul, hyukjae, kyuhyun, zhoumi.
super junior ot15 in 2024. i have never been this emotional about anything kpop-related ever i'm literally crying.
if we win, we'll add it to our 100 trophies for decoration. if you win, your group gets to stay afloat. snsd have been there. if they were there, they would have been the first to congratulate a rookie group for winning a trophy that means to us 1/100th of what it means to you.
i disagree with people who say snsd's peak is gone. their streams, views or music show wins peak might be gone, but this is the highlight of their career. so accomplished as individuals and still so loved as a group after 15 years. there's no one like you.
nothing NOTHING on stan twt irks me more than people saying "it's not a group project" in fanwars cause leeteuk did not share super junior's daesang with snsd, tvxq, shinee and f(x) in 2012 for new kpop fans to be pitting their successful groups against each other 10 years later
every 2nd gen group had to promote themselves on varieties. not by sitting there getting praised, but actually engaging and doing the work. it's not like that now and you can think it's a good or bad thing, but 4th gen not knowing their way around varieties is not suju's fault.
put these clips together because everyone needs to see and feel the greatness, the charisma, the confidence, the royalty of nation's girlgroup girls' generation.
sones: omg the actress line has group schedules and filming schedules at the same time they must be so tired lately😢
the actress line during group schedules:
non-fans' concern for things that didn't even cross a group's own fandom's mind is so hilarious to me cause wdym "snsd cancelled music shows cause they know they can't get n.1" the thought hadn't even occurred to any of us we literally just want seohyun and the 4k fancams😭
One of the funniest things in TV and film is when you see an actor almost break character by laughing. What are some of your favorite moments when someone laughed or almost laughed in a scene in a movie or show? Post clips if you have them.
my dream variety is locking snsd, suju and tvxq in a room together so they can make fun of each other as they reminisce their trainee days for two hours. i'd pay money for this.
le sserafim and most of hybe artists aren't bad singers they're just showing what actual raw vocals sound like and by that they end up exposing the rest of kpop industry who at best put a loud backtrack and scream thru it the entire performance or just keep lip syncing as usual🤷🏻♀️
the rest of the kpop industry minding their own business:
yesung in the last chorus of neorago: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH
one day she's fake crying on screen while winning awards as an actress, the next day she's girls' generation's center, visual and lead dancer. all rounder yoona💅
notice how forever 1 reached over 9M views in 24 hours, which is a record for snsd, without even trying that hard. nobody was begging to stream, nobody was guilt tripping those who couldn't, nobody was even keeping track. people just genuinely wanted to enjoy the song 9M times.
"my fave is the ONLY one who-" is always a lie. i promise plenty of other idols are amazing singers, dancers, writers, producers, even all-rounders. your faves are not the only ones, they're the only ones YOU know, and that's fine. but recognize that and don't speak on others.
me: people who ship celebrities just bc they interacted are so annoying
also me: HE SAID???? AND SHE????? THEY'RE SO CUTE?? HIS ASS IS SO IN LOVE WITH EUNJI OMFG
look at the way hyukkie was just standing there, just thinking and looking up🥺 and then sooyoung saw him from afar and walked up to him, and yoona joined them🥺
taeyeon reposted and commented all the forever 1 challenges that soshi did with other idols and she said that shindong's is her favorite one and her energizer video THEY'RE BESTIES🤧🤧🤧
all this discourse about idols lip syncing and whatnot on stan twt… look here apink sing so live we can tell when bomi starts singing gibberish bc she forgot her lyrics 😭
other groups: serious and thought-through speech about being grateful and loving their fans
super junior: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
maybe the most "organic" success i've ever seen, no mass streaming just people bumping into snsd every time they appear on a variety and thinking "mh gonna check out their song"
heechul yelled "MOM!!!" and then he had to explain she was kyuhyun's mom and not his actual mom omfg super junior literally a bunch of shared adoptive sons i'm crying
super junior could come out and say "yeah i made kpop what it is today" and it would be true but every time someone compliments them they'd rather be like "yes but look at what girls' generation and shinee and bigbang and tvxq and psy did😊" i love them so much
sm stans thanking heechul for singlehandedly saving their faves' and his own ass by debunking the rumors, after they've been shitting on him for years and complaining that "super junior always get protection from sm"
three of the strongest vocalists in kpop and THE BEST harmony i've ever heard from any kpop group like i don't even have the words to explain how absurdly perfect this is
no because sugen love each other so much heechul literally cried after seeing soshi dance together and soshi almost cried too seeing how emotional he got you don't understand super generation means the world to me i'm crying
super junior performing lo siento with kard always makes my heart flutter. mind you kard had debuted 9 months earlier and kpop veterans super junior, being the geniuses they are at recognizing and appreciating talent, chose them to share the stage. i won.
snsd were really onto something when in 2012 they released the music videos of the japanese version of a bunch of their korean title tracks cause visually they are insanely superior
it's so funny how some people genuinely think they're homoph*bic when hong seokcheon has been one of their closest friends since forever like dude is the gayest korean celeb i know and he's ALWAYS involved in everything suju does be fr😭
not only is leeteuk the best leader we could ask for, heechul is also the best hyung, even if sometimes he wouldn't strike you as leader material. while leeteuk was taking care of the sujus in manila, heechul took care of the sujus in korea. thank god for our suju pillars💙
let's discuss this actually cause when did people lose interest in watching kpop idols on varieties. when and why did y'all decide that seeing idols and other celebrities playing quizzes, dissing each other or chasing one another around a mall is not the best fucking thing ever.
sooyoung and leeteuk both saying their respective groups are not competing with other idols anymore... so happy my girls and my boys reached a phase in their career where they have nothing to prove and just make music when and how they want to, just for themselves and the fans🥺
kpop stans: the sm thing is so serious omg super junior is finally gonna disband
super junior in their hotel room during their world tour: cacao, kakao? LMFAOOOOOOO KAKAO🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
