I would have to agree with this guy. His statements are pretty spot-on considering that the main target demographic for K-Pop are students (middle and high school) in terms of music. Furthermore, the group's image is important in terms of adds, CFs and television appearances. Twice has been on SNL-K recently and is going to be on Running Man next week. This type of attention might not last long (maybe 5 years at most) but if their success continues, like SNSD, Twice will be considered 'Hall of Fame' worthy K-Pop stars. As a Once I feel like the most important thing is that the group stays together as friends through their ups and downs. I love Twice, not because they're well loved in Korea but because they love each other. Fame and relevance in the public eye might not be forever but I hope their love for each other would be everlasting! Maybe 15 years from now Twice will make a comeback g.o.d style! Let's keep our heads up and hope for the best my fellow Onces! BAAAAM!

I love seeing Jihyo getting more recognition from not only Once but other K-Pop fans as well. It's not prefect, she definitely deserves to be loved more and more. None the less, I believe her popularity grew a lot this comeback. People are seeing her for how beautiful she is inside and out. A lot of it is due to Once voicing out how great she is! Ultimately, we have to give all the credit to Jihyo for just simply being an amazing person. Let's keep loving her and the rest of Twice guys! BAAAAAM!

YO! TWICE is working so hard and are being loved by a lot of people! Yet they stay humble and thank the people that helped them get that far instead of bragging! I just want to give a loving reminder to my fellow Onces to do the same! Twice is a humble group so Once should be a humble fandom. Let's be thankful of Twice's hard work! Keep it up Once! BAAAAM!

Good mr removed or bad mr removed? People that rely on those videos to determine talent don't understand what k-pop idol groups are truly capable of. JYP said that his artists might not be the strongest vocalist but they're all good people. Being an idol means captivating people and keeping them. That's why we became Once, because once we fell for them we couldn't stop. There is such a thing called the 'IT' factor in the entertainment business. Remember SIXTEEN's first challenge is "Are you a Star?" and Sana passed the challenge without singing or dancing. It's because at that time J.Y Park knew she had 'IT'. He was captivated. There will always be a debate on whether Twice can sing or not. Even at this day some SNSD members still get comments on not being as good vocally compared to Taeyeon or Tiffany. Just remember that Twice's future success will always go beyond their performing skills. A lot of antis say they're overrated/bad performers but they can never say that they're unsuccessful or unloved. BAAAAM!

Sometimes I indulge in reading negative Youtube comments and forum comments about Twice. Do I subconsciously hate myself for doing so? maybe. When I do feel upset about some comments I don't retaliate or comment back. Not that there's anything wrong with respectfully voicing your opinion but my personality makes me avoid conflicts and debates. I'm too much of a pacifist to respond to hate. Instead I bow my head and ask 'Why are people like this?' The answer to that question isn't the point...and neither are my opinions on hate comments and how to react to them. My point is, despite all the hateful comments I read about Twice or any of my other faves, there are so much more people that love them. I read threads like this one, I follow the right people on Twitter and Tumblr. I read about all the love Twice receives and I realize that there will always be more fans than haters. There will always be Once supporting Twice, regardless if they have a bad/awkward performance. The reason why is that love will always last longer than hate. It takes more effort to hate something than to actually let yourself enjoy it. Twice will be getting hate as the years go on. So will your other faves. It's just part of the hyper-verbal internet culture that we live in. I just want to encourage you guys to keep moving forward and keep being a fan of who you love. Don't let the haters discourage you because there will always be more fans than haters. Keep your heads up everyone! BAAAAM!
