Idols licking their lips / biting their tongue ASDFGHJKLÖ

Biting your lip or showing your tongue can be hot if you you know how to time it and do it once, MAX twice.

Meanwhile male idols in 2021

Dance wise, Chaeryeong > Chaeyeon and Shotaro > Ten

[Ori]

^if we’re at controversial dance/vocal opinions Doyoung>Taeil technique wise, since Resonance era. Also Yoohyeon>>>Siyeon

Listening to Jiho singing so high (no pun intended) is painful.  I cringe every time that part comes. WM should stop giving her lines that are way too high

Hyojung should've sang the part instead she sounded way better

TWICE 

1. Mina doesn't deserve a main dancer. JYPE never changed/updated their position but Mina stan want to push it. She’s a great lead Dancer, but not main. I remember I said this on Twitter & they eat me up. I had to turn my notifications off 

2. Those who believe that Jihyo doesn't deserve the lead dancer position are delusional. She might over dance but that doesn't mean she shouldn't be lead. Now, on the topic of her over dancing, sometimes it's okay but girl needs to tone it down. Momo is main & she knows not to over do it. 

3. Tzuyu stage presence is okay. It's not great, but people overreacted about her having "no stage presence". To say she is absolutely boring is too much. She doesn't suit mature concept for sure, I watched all their Cry For Me performance & she seem to be struggling with her facial expressions. Whereas, the cuter concept she looks more natural & relax, for example she was great during WIL, DTNA, M&M, Fancy and AF era. But she definitely didn't suit ICSM & FS, she looked really awkward during those eras. With a face like that & more practice, she should be able to kill anyone. Maybe Sana can give her some pointers.

4. TWICE is hated too much for their vocals. 3mix is on similar level as most vocalists of this generation but you don't hear them being drag. I think one of the problem is that TWICE has 3 members who are okay, another 4 that is okay-ish & the other 2 way below average. The margin between who can sing vs who can't sing is big; 3 vs 6 is a lot.

5. ONCEs are delusional & are trying so hard to convince themselves that Jeongyeon hiatus/anxiety problems are cause by her neck disc. Sorry, but that has just a bit to due with it. I think because she realized how undervalued she is in the group; barely get any lines, awful clothing, never centre, etc. 

6. Dahyun's stage presence is underrated. She deserves so much more

Some groups are more talented than others. Because some can sing and some not really...

If a worst Korean actress award category existed...the most eligible winners are either Park Shin hye or Kim So Hyun. 

I could never finish a drama when any of them is a leading role even if the script is good. Their acting is very bad, no charisma with the opposite leads and very boring.. Both of them are overrated and overhyped..heck even most of the female idols in dramas act better, because at least they are trying.

I think sumin doest suit stayc. she looks out of place 

I dont know why but i think she suits red velvet 

 

[CherryAngel]

1st time I stan for looks and I’m ashamed 

[Mrs. Morale]

Momo deserves her spot in TWICE, I don't care what any other bitch says.

It's true she doesn't have the vocal ability but I can't imagine TWICE without Momo. She brings personality, vibes, dance, fun, etc to the group. And honestly, TWICE needed a dancer like Momo, she was the best on Sixteen. She is an amazing performer & dancer.

i much prefer a subpar debut song and even couple follow up songs where there's only room to grow and improve instead of a debut so amazing that it would be difficult to be topped. people judge and dismiss groups right away when they've only just debuted lolz they never learn. how many legendary groups also have a terrible or forgettable debut song? a lot. 

i think there's too much emphasis on needing to have an 'iconic' debut

Spoiler

And then all of coachella lmao 

Don't understand people who think she's just hype and is overrated. She's one of the only people who can actually back all that hype up, it is not just empty praise. So talented and amazing  

 

[Zoukep]

Hybe is wasting their time marketing TXT to the Western market. TXT songs or individual members dont seem suited for Western audience. Instead they should get the members into acting in kdramas and variety shows. And target Korea first. Enhyphen might do better in the West, already doing better but being a Mnet collab project they don't want to promote them in US.

Sunny side up eggs are f**king awful.

They taste like half cooked eggs, they taste & smell raw...just disgusting!

Itzy has one of the worst discography in kpop.

Red Velvet title tracks never reminded me of f(x)

 

sure maybe some side tracks by rv i can hear f(x) sing, but not once did i ever hear a title track and saw a visual concept of theirs and think 'damn f(x) would have slayed this'

[Aegyo]

I don’t get hype about Jin’s visuals..he is handsome yes..but there are many other idols who either look like him or much better…

Taeyong is not a bad rapper like some people claim to be. Sure he's not a technical rapper but he's far from bad. I think he has decent skills. He's very versatile. His raps in Chain, Mad City, Yestoday, Light Bulb all have different flow, emotions, delivery and tone. I like how he knows how switch up to express his lyrics. And his self-written lyrics are actually really good

 

Even Mark, the only decent rapper SM has like most people say, frequently asks for Taeyong's opinion during recording sessions. How to phrase certain parts, the lyrics, which voice should he use. This goes to show that even Mark respects him as a rapper and knows how good Taeyong is at expressing and delivering the lyrics. And for me that is one of the few qualities of a decent rapper.

It's safe to say that in Oh My Girl, Arin is the new Face of the Group dethroning YooA. Sure, Yooa was the most popular in the group when they debuted. But Arin's popularity somehow skyrocketed after Nonstop, even becoming the only member to top the female brand reputation. Ever since that, she got multiple endorsements, becoming emcee, always trending on Naver/MelOn for the littlest thing she does. Korea loves her. Her fancams are always the most viewed. Not only that, her Dolphin performance with Soobin went viral and ever since that she's becoming super popular among international fans too.

Shuhua is literally so useless in G Idle. I forgot she even existed until some post on here mentioned it! I don't understand how the Kpop industry pretends to be so strict with who they let debut and then there's people with such little talent you could replace them with any slightly pretty random bozo from the street and it'd change like nothing about the group's releases

I don't mean to body-shame anyone. I'm so sorry but...

I find it hard to watch some extremely skinny girls dance certain moves. Like Yeji & Lisa dance. They are both my bias in their groups but their moves comes a bit awkward & I just cringe. Like Lisa twerking, girl stop. Chaeryeong is already a better dancer than Yeji but Chaeryeong moves are much more fun to watch because she has a little bit more "meat".

 

Now, that am on the topic of Chaeryeong....

▪︎SHE IS BEAUTIFUL!!!! 

▪︎There isn't really a big difference between Chaeyoung & Chaeryeong dancing. Yeah, Chaeyoung is better but sometimes there is just something that bothers me about the way she move/dance.

▪︎Yeji shouldn't have gotten "Artist of Month" on Choom. It should have been Chaeryeong. Yeji is my bias & am happy for her promotions, but Chaeryeong deserves it more because she is so underrated & a better dancer

▪︎Chaeryeong stans are annoying. They want her to be 1st in everything. She doesn't have to be 1st, she already get enough by being last. There is not once where Chaeryeong has gotten under 20 seconds in a song except for DD.

▪︎I'm happy that she got more appreciation in MITM era especially with her hip sway move going semi-viral. She did it the best out of any member then followed by Ryujin...and I don't know wtf Lia was doing.

there is a difference between an unpopular opinion and just a rant

some of you seem to forget this sometimes 

 

btw this is the rant thread 

if you have a hard time finding it 

 

[flower.]

Line distribution should be fair and not equal.

I'm saying all member should have lines according to their official position, not saying some should get like 1-3 sec lines. Like it wouldn't make sense if a lead gets less than a sub?

But yes, there will be some instances where the line distribution is equal.
