The title track (I mean this in the Western way) is great, it's already one of my SOTY. You mean the 80s lol

The k-pop normalization of sexual harassment/grossness
Quintessential replied to ga_shina's topic in Random
Oh I agree with that too, the filmers definitely play a part. They manipulate non sexy performances to be sexual, and that's what I don't like. -
The k-pop normalization of sexual harassment/grossness
Quintessential replied to ga_shina's topic in Random
Honestly the idea of using pictures and fancams that isn't for that use and then using it in that way is strange to me by itself (especially when there's literal porn out there), but the main reason why that specific subreddit creeps me out is because a lot of the content is accidental, like a female idol's skirt flying up accidentally or something. Plus as well a lot of then seem way too happy when female idols turn 18. There's a bunch of subs dedicated to Western female celebs that's of a similar nature and idk it's always made me uncomfortable. I agree it's always worse when the idol is directly exposed to it. -

Is the idol(s) displayed as your profile photo your bias?

The k-pop normalization of sexual harassment/grossness
Quintessential replied to ga_shina's topic in Random
I don't believe in babying idols but I've always thought the way fans sexualise idols of both genders was just weird. A certain subreddit that's not called r/kpop creeps me out especially. -
I never said either of the bolded statements is true/should be true. It's just that I personally find this excuse to run dry after a while, it's used in literally every single situation regarding Western issues and it's getting annoying. Foreigners do not need to be invested in other people's cultures if they do not want to be. However, if you're interested in Western entertainment, as a lot of idols are, you will know at least some of the gossip surrounding that industry. We can even flip this back to me - I have relatively little interest in kpop as a whole, but I do still know about the more important stories. I wouldn't claim to be as ignorant or unaware of the industry as fans claim idols to be about the Western world. Regarding this specific case, idk much about Ailee but it appears as if she grew up in America. The domestic abuse case was talked about a lot back then, I remember TMZ obtaining the police picture of Rihanna. Obviously the only person who will know for sure if she knew is herself, and it's down to her if she wants to continue to support him. I'm not invested enough in either artist to have deep feelings about this.

Half the time I don't buy it when people say that idols don't know, some of you act like Korea is some remote place in the ass crack of nowhere.

Articles like this are so irritating, what exactly do they contribute Also the non stans commenting on here are really strange, it's still light years ahead of what any other kpop group has done in terms of the Grammys
