redheart 7,440 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 so I lowkey staned BTS when they were debuting and I was talking about it with a friend of mine who's now a dedicated Army and she reminded me that back then I was reticent to completely get into them because Jungkook and I have the same age actually he's even younger than me by a few months and I guess I didn't like the idea of staning someone younger than me? it's kind of idiotic now that I think about it, what am I going to do when 4th gen arrives?

125628 3,659 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 i didn't like the idea of stanning idols the same age or younger than me at first either, but over time so many young idols debut and then i just sucked it up and accepted the fact that i am getting old maybe because of jealousy like 'how can someone my age be so flawless and fit and talented???' butttt somehow my ultimate biases are all older than me tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jela 1,609 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Me too, I'm a 96 liner and everyone younger than 97 is a hard no for me. Even if i've already started stanning, the moment i see their age i get turned off idont know why, maybe im just pressed someone younger is more successful than i'll ever be.

125628 3,659 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 this is me exactly if I followed that rule of mine to only stan older idols I would has stoped to Exo and never staned Red Velvet and I it's exactly what you said younger idols made me feel shitty about myself so I would only stan older ones now I'm completely over that but I could never stan 4th gen groups like I stan 3rd gen even 2nd gen groups i'm '98 and i think i might have peaked too lmao it's getting harder for me to follow newer groups like i did before, unless they're the super popular ones or from the big 3 and yes as you said i stopped focusing on the artist's personal life and just appreciate the music they make ahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing wrong with it, but it still feels weird to me. no it's not wrong of course but like you said it just feel super weird, like this person is younger than me yet I look up to them? it's a weird feeling, I try to think about it more like a brotherly sisterly kind of staning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redheart 7,440 Posted January 5, 2018 Author Share Posted January 5, 2018 Jongkook? I don't recall such a member of BTS that's not how you write it? sorry, what's the right way? google said it's 'jongkook' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poeski 3,021 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 that's not how you write it? sorry, what's the right way? google said it's 'jongkook' "Jungkook". what a fail on google. He is five years younger than I am. In fact, only Jin and I are the same age....8 months older than he is...BTS has a lot of fans in their thirties and forties as well. I don't think this is a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qians 803 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 no it's not wrong of course but like you said it just feel super weird, like this person is younger than me yet I look up to them? it's a weird feeling, I try to think about it more like a brotherly sisterly kind of staning i like to think like that too, like this is a kid that is growing and i'm watching and i feel like a proud older sis? mom? something like that lmao i used to prefer older idols too, actually i had a "thing" for leaders because they are usually the oldest in the group, but now a lot of idols are usually my age or younger so i had to get over it or just quit idols all together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soilei 4,812 Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 uhm. i stan BTS cuz of their music, they're all younger than me actually lol. i think it would be the same if i started liking other younger group. i don't know, it doesn't bother me with western artists, i never care about their age, i always like someone because of their music, so it doesn't bother me with kpop either.
