  1. well I only look at it from business perspective so if a silly thing = sales job done, target achieved, deadline achieved.. Arin is a celebrity now if she wasn't a celebrity and she did the same thing that's would've been another story, but she's is popular/celebrity < I guess that what the marketing team were looking for just to get a bit of a boost for their brand name or something as you just said.. don't take it seriously I am not attacking your opinion just have a different opinion and my experience in the industry think about it like having an online meeting lol
  2. well I don't care if she wears it or not it's not like most people actually buy something after looking at a CF you said you studied marketing have you worked or have experience in marketing tho? cause there's a difference between studying vs putting that studying in practice getting a job done on targeted time or achieving target sales as for CFs most costumers don't really care I think how the shop displays it product and the presentation more useful, I am not a marketing person but I worked in clothing/accessory stores and sold stuff we had CF things and photoshoots hanging everywhere that people barely care about even a popular brand model/designer came once to represent his brand but again most customers don't have interest in that they just wanna know the brand have a look give it a try and perhaps purchase so then its my job as sales person to convince the customers or attract the customers.
  3. well I can't speak for Japanese fans but at least for International fans we try to speak against a lot of shit, I find a lot of adult Japanese fans "fans in their 30s, 40s, 50s" to be just too accepting or sympathetic towards the agencies or maybe they're just conservatives themselves idk but do came across a lot of their comments be like "hey just work a bit harder make sure your makeup is done right and do better on sns etc.." they will hire the likes of her, the whole idea here is to sell some kind of drama or storyline "look this women managed to go against all the odds" to attract more fans who sympathize with her. i can already tell from looking at the pics it's very old school AKB stuff, that's like old school version of things like survival shows/PD101 there's always two sides fighting but unfortunately the big agencies & their right wing fans/supporters are powerful af.
  4. I would have had a Completely different reaction watching the video without knowing about the bullying scandal and parents involved but since I know and then watched this video I can't sense anything sincere or genuine in it it's felt like watching a scene from a kdrama of a lovey dovey relationship of a bully & her mom with the Daughter being like hey girl can you see how much i love my mom & how much she loves me? watch out
  5. this is disturbing af, you can hear the kids crying in the back, nobody knows the sequence of those videos. I also read that he has Military background and was abusing his power to stalk the victim and follow her around.
  6. I won't say she "was" she is still a bully in that video she's bullying someone therefore it's no longer a subject of her past younger days. bullies don't always change after they become adults some of them remain bullies, the mom in this case looks like one of those
  7. this is CLASSIC bullying, how much else is there to show? these idiots are so good at exposing themselves lol April & especially Naeun & her mom should get fuc*ing canceled
  8. the identity of the killer is already exposed in public this is the dude in question I don't know who took this video! but the trash is literally saying "I will break the door in front of people, I swear I will break the window"
  9. Victim had earlier filed 2 cases against perpetrator months ago but he was given bail. The perpetrator, Fahad Subhi Mohammed, crashed into Akbar’s car, kidnapped her and her daughters (who were in the car with her) and stabbed Akbar in front of her daughter in the chest. He then drove her body to the hospital and fled. "Yasmena Al Mulla, Correspondent" Kuwait City: On Tuesday, a Kuwaiti woman, Farah Akbar, was gruesomely killed by a man who she had previously filed two cases against for kidnapping and attempted murder. The perpetrator, Fahad Subhi Mohammed, crashed into Akbar’s car, kidnapped her and her daughters (who were in the car with her) and stabbed Akbar in front of her daughter in the chest. He then drove her body to the hospital and fled. Video footage showed Akbar’s family members crying outside the hospital, screaming out, “This is what we get! We told you that he was going to kill her. And now he killed my sister.” In a statement, the Ministry of Interior, stated that Mohammed confessed to the killing and was arrested. Akbar’s lawyer, Abdulmohsen Al Qattan, publicly stated that the killer is not and never was married to the Akbar and warned against circulating incorrect news. No protection Dana Akbar, the victim’s sister, shared a video on social media explaining that she filed two cases against the perpetrator on two separate occasions, and both times he was released on bail. She added that she warned the prosecutor multiple times that the man is a serious threat to her family. “Despite the fact that her sister went from one police station to another to file a complaint, nobody took her seriously. They let him walk. What excuse are they going to give now?” Dr. Shayma Shamo, founder of Lan Askat, a platform giving a voice to all victims of gender-based violence, told Gulf News. Akbar’s killing sparked outrage on social media with many questioning how the killer was freed after he was charged with an attempted murder case. The hashtag ‘I am the next victim’ was trending on Twitter with many claiming the lack of protection against harassment and complaints about violence has created an unsafe space for women in Kuwait. “What happened to Farah can happen to any of us. Her case, like many other killings, goes to show that the state has failed us as women,” Shamo said. Repeated pattern While Akbar’s death is a tragic loss, unfortunately she is one of many women who have lost their lives because of harassment that goes unpunished. Shamo receives numerous messages daily from women who have been harassed or who have received death threats. She explained that many have tried to report the perpetrator but the reply is always ‘we can not do anything’. “These killings keep happening because of a combination of factors from institutional failure to the stigma around a woman walking into a police station to seek help as police stations are male-dominated spaces,” Abrar Al Shammari, a Kuwaiti activist and researcher, told Gulf News. Also, many women have been killed at the hands of their own family members. In December, Shaikha Al Ajmi, a guard at Kuwait’s parliament, was killed by her brother. A few months earlier in September, Fatima Al Ajmi, a pregnant woman, was shot dead by her brother inside the ICU. In 2019, Hajer Al Assi was shot by her brother who ended up receiving a 10-year sentence. In December 2018, Ghalia Al Dhaferi was stabbed by her brother and thrown in the desert, in order to frame her death as an accident to protect her brother. Legislative action On August 19, 2020, Kuwait’s parliament approved a domestic violence law, which set legal procedures to protect the well-being of the family. Although the law went into effect a month after it was passed in parliament, many have stated that having a law is one thing and implementing it is another. Article 2 of the family protection law stipulates that the state must take measures to protect victims of domestic violence. “There is a counter argument that states that family issues are private and should not be handled by the state. But the state has a responsibility to protect individual lives, which are part of the family unit,” Al Shammari pointed out. In addition, the law stipulates that a shelter needs to be established. Until now, there is no functioning state shelter to protect against domestic violence victims. Breaking the cycle Other than activating the shelter, Al Shammari believes that raising awareness and addressing the issue is necessary to break the taboo around harassment and violence. She added there is a need for more women in the police force and women should also be present at places of reporting, such as police stations, to lessen the stigma around seeking help. Shamo is using her platform to raise awareness about the issue of violence and harassment because “first and foremost we need a deep cultural shift in the way we treat victims and the way we react to their stories. We need to stop normalising violence and say ‘this is not acceptable’”. Despite all the possible solutions to break the vicious cycle of women being murdered, Al Shammari stated, “There is a strong system in place that allows for these killings to happen and does not hold people accountable.” Source: https://www.google.com/amp/s/gulfnews.com/amp/world/gulf/kuwait/horror-crime-in-kuwait-as-woman-is-murdered-left-at-hospital-by-killer-1.78659764
  10. maybe he have fans who support him regardless, but I wonder if this is the first time people saw him sing like this or was he always this bad
  11. why is it a crisis? first Japan now Korea like bruh who cares if they don't have kids lol
  12. teaser won't always immediately work my friend but I agree 4 shoots were too much but non the less keep in mind the girl in pink was the SECOND girl she tried to stab, btw there are incidents of which the person kept fighting even after they were shot once. the parents did nothing but watch them fight and her father was kicking the first girl in the head when she on the ground as the police walked in! looks like you missed that like what was her father doing??? I won't say officers could’ve easily handled that without any weapons bruh if he didn't pull the trigger girl in pink would have been stabbed for SURE and the second officer came after the shooting took place (watch the second officer body cam) they were not there together at the same time it doesn't matter how small the knife is she could kill someone with razor blade let alone a knife. lastly I don't think American police are that good..
  13. the body-cam video of the officer is out there on YouTube a teaser doesn't always work and if its failed the girl in pink would've got stabbed, the officer screamed multiple times "get down, get down etc.." before pulling the trigger the girl's father and several other males were around and all had the chance to try and stop the girl take her knife way before the police got out of their car but instead her father was kicking the back of the head of another girl who was down on the ground
  14. they will understand once they grow up as they look back and say what on earth was I doing? lmfao just like those fans who warship their favorite football team and cry like babies when their fave loses & I am like wtf are you crying about? it's just sport entertainment nobody died it's not that serious lol and when their fave wins they act like they win a revolution and broke the great wall of china only to go to their boring job next day and come up with a lame excuse on why they were absent the day before lol
  15. idk if that's aKorean thing or its happens in certain places! I mean speaking for myself i have been a rock/metal fan since I was like 15 but the only western idol boy group I ever followed was Backstreet Boys and for Kpop it was 2pm tbh I don't even bother looking up bg songs cause i just feel like it's much safer to just check out ggs releases for kpop almost like I am forcing myself to stay loyal to ggs for no real reason
  16. idk if that's just Korean male thing but in other places what's hilarious is when you have girls only listen to female artists and men only listen to male artist so I can't tell you how many times men will ask why am I listening to a female artist as lmao or like some feel too shy to admit that they're listening to an artist from the apposite sex but even then a guy listening to female artists is not that much of a problem but if a girl listens to male artist then people will start questioning her "oh she must like that type of men Haha" type thing
  17. the only places of which you could find loyal male fans are in genres like Rock/Metal of which you could see a boy band followed by an ocean of male fans don't know why that doesn't happen with idol boy groups! but I guess it's as simple as idol bgs just don't target same sex fans
  18. wasn't it 1st gen bgs that came up with I am married to my fans thing? lol non the less ggs do great digitally & they seem to have more variety in comparison to bgs I don't how many bgs do Boy-crush or anything that targets same sex fans
  19. they're a jpop group influenced by kpop, they speak Japanese usually only this time they spoke Korean probably cause they thought it was cool or something idk, maybe they thought addressing thai fans in kpop's fashion Korean language is good marketing?!
  20. I much prefer kdrama nowadays the last time i stan a kpop group was izone now I just don't have enough motivation to follow kpop stuff
