bright 1,254 Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Why to J-pop fans say this as if Japanese people don't do their own gimmicks? Because most of Kpop fans (I'm one, but this isn't me) always brag how Japanese market is full of gimmicks while their artists do it too, especially the most recent Kpop acts. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bright 1,254 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 The Sewol incident reminded me a lot of the Cheonan incident in regards to how the entertainment industry reacted to it. There was this massive shutdown. It was weird to me because when 3/11 happened in Japan, the industry didn't take that long of a break, even though 3/11 was a much bigger deal than Sewol and Cheonan combined. KPop fans worldwide do seem to only care about groups, leading the creation of even more groups. Hopefully some day they'll get over this. Yeah, it's rare to see a KPop song do well digitally these past few years. Yeah, I didn't get the part about not being able to see KPop acts in Japan. If anything, they do more concerts in Japan than in Korea. This is something Korean fans often complain about. Japanese acts do gimmicks, but it's very much an idol thing. Artists don't really do this. JPop fans who are into artists call out J-idols for their gimmicks too. It's not just a thing of bashing KPop. Well, you should know the kind of people who are like 'I'm into artists but I don't call out idols' exist because I'm apart of it. Probably because I like both.
