[gno]

[Nika]

It's funny how one of their tl;dr videos is too long for me to want to watch.

Basically wht we already kno times 10.

 

Constantly performing, traveling from place to place, packed daily schedules on little sleep.

You think them selcas of them sleeping is cute? Well it's not. They're probably uncomfortable as shit.

Fed poorly by their companies. (Where these shitty diets come from)

Living with other members, obvi they won't get along all the time

Privacy is eliminated, forget about it.

Allowed to sing songs about love, but aren't allowed to date.

Dongho wanted to really become a pirate.

 

Oh yea and all groups work hard so to say "this specific" group deserves so much more recognition is unfair to everyone.

Is YouTube fucking up for everybody lately??? Like it plays on low quality despite internet connection is really fast everywhere else???

 

I've been having this problem too on my home wifi...

SUMMARY

 

Why idol would want to consider quitting the idol life

• Lack of privacy

• Crazy working hours. Idols tend to sleep anywhere/on the move most times

• Even when the dating ban are lifted, fans go crazy when their idols start dating. Crazy fans want them to remain single for themselves

• Living in dorms. Seeing members 24/7 can cause even some BFF crazy but they have to put up w/ it. Seeing each other at 'home', work place, also have to play the part of 'getting along' to the public even if it's not the case at all

• Not getting proper meal and company often buy the cheapest stuff for them. Idols are told to be on a strict diet when they already have crazy schedules + lack of sleep/rest

 

- THE ENDING PART -

They asked if those who wants to be a kpop idol would still consider doing it after knowing all this details

 

*not sure if I covered everything*

[winxred12]

[gno]

So no new information?

Dongho really left to become a pirate.

[DragonFury]

Nothing I didn't already know, nothing I disagree with.

[klassic♥]

Thats what u get when u become celebrity, not just korean hallyu but everywhere... i honestly dont like them since forever and what they trying to say is basic, everyone know how the entertainment world works... they getting attention becuz they are EYK, but lets be real, everyone know this... and nothing can change it, u want to be celebrity, thats what u get it just korean system diff a little bit compared to tge rest of the world

[Brown Bear]

Do you want to be a Kpop idol? Dongho was, and doesn't want to be anymore. Here are our thoughts on the matter, and why we would never, ever want to be Kpop idols.

Pretty sure Dongho doesn't want to be a K-pop Idol anymore, because he gave it a shot and went absolutely nowhere. If it's really because of the reasons that they listed, then he wouldn't be pursuing anything else in the Entertainment industry period, because unless he forms his own company and makes his own rules. He will still be getting the same treatment from where ever next he signs to or whatever area of the entertainment industry he wants to pursue.

I haven't watched them in a little over a year. I know they have opinions and aren't afraid to voice them, but how far does their shade go? Has it gotten worse... If so, examples?

[lilya]

What groups did they shade/bash?
