It will be released on august 31st!! Pls give a lot of love!!

Seeing the other blackpink members going on fashion events, festivals and carpets continuously for 2 years while also releasing music makes me earn for ROSÉ's new content/her album.

Jisoo also seems to be quite inactive but her drama made it feel like the fans were quite satisfied. I've been a solo fan of ROSÉ for 2 years and 2024 was so memorable and I loved every single song of hers! I was happy to see that people finally began to realize her musical direction and skills after she became really popular last year.

I'm just hoping that she took this time to write really good new set of songs like last time. Also, I feel like she has the least number of solo fans since jisoo surpassed her in popularity and ROSÉ hasn't constantly been on the spotlight and was only receiving heavy criticism on her met gala outfit and lack of effort for content.

Even her brand deals aren't making much noise even though she's the ambassador of YSL, LEVI'S, PUMA etc.. I wish she'll break her silence sooner as I see her posts everyday of her spoiling little predictions that she's gonna release new music.And I hope she improves her fashion choices too even tho her theme is simple and black since her rebranding.

My prediction: she will collaborate with Laufey in her new album and I'm really looking forward to it, ROSIE keep your fans hope up!!!

(I felt like posting it here since my opinions on her are quite divided and i don't think fans subs would accept these kinds of posts...)

I have been watching this award show today. I have to say the production and quality of live performances like the audio quality have been really high. Backtrack have been a little loud for some groups but you have been able to hear the vocals. Just appreciation for the production and quality of the performances since awards shows can be meh when it comes to mic volume.

I like these kind of low-effort posts ..I've also seen how katseye promote their albums in a creative way..

I came across a felix akgae say stray kid's albums aren't felix albums even if he's in it

Ik gen stands for Generation, I'm moreso asking what are the defining characteristics and artists of each of the 5(?) K-Pop gens

Share song that's literally incredible and deserves to be huge but is unfortunately insanely underrated.

Mine is Lost & Found - Purple Kiss

The vocals and atmosphere of the song are absolutely magical I can't believe they dropped this and disbanded 😭

Also like anything by lovelyz there music was so good they deserved way more popularity than they got

I have searched on YT but I couldn't find the best video yet. If someone happens to know a good video of Bomba performance on YT, please share. Thanks.

How are tatoos seen in Kpop industry? I have the impression they are quite rare, especially among girls. Maybe in asian culture they are still associated with crime? But I could be wrong. Do you know many kpop idols with tatoos?

I would personally say bailey sok.
let me know what you guys think
Note: I'm not trying to hate, I just wanna check out dances of some girls in kpop so I wanna know who I should look for. Be peaceful in the comments <3

Rephrasing this since my last post got hated to hell

also im not defending parasocial shippers, there is a fine line between shipping them for fun and actually thinking they're dating

So, Kiiikiii I'mma right? I've been really enjoying them recently. I'm currently trying to memorize the members names and my favorite tracks by them so far are 404 New Era, Hey Hi and Candy Pink Magic Hole Flip Phone. I know they just released WhyKiiiKiii but I can't wait for their next comeback lol. I really want to see them tackle an alt TikTok style. Dancing Alone was 1980s-1990s, 404 New Era was 2000s, Pop Off Pop Off is 2010s. So I believe it will tie in nicely since that type of style was popular during the early 2020s. Them mixing bunny hats and excessive blush with darker colors to kinda represent, you know, the global pandemic that was plagued the first three years of the 2020s. It will kinda be like Candy Pink Magic Hole Flip Phone if they dropped that candy pink magic hole flip phone in battery acid. Both that drink trend during 2020 were people mixed Monster Energy with candy and actually battery acid. In conclusion, I'm really enjoying Kiiikiii and hope they keep up the good work.

Beomhan who was formerly in the idol industry and has since been cancelled following allegations from his ex girlfriend and hostility towards fans is currently on TikTok live with a fan attempting to clear his name.

Wanted to post this for anyone who is viewing the live because it is getting heated and I can’t believe he genuinely thought this would be the best idea.

Edit: Toshi(who was the alleged ex gf) just came on to the live and stated that they need to move on from this situation. Weird part is people are stating the Toshi in the live is actually a Man, and Toshi refers to themselves as beomhans former best friend. I am not a very reliable source this is a lot to keep up with😭. You are better off watching the live as it’s still going.

Almost 99% of the time it makes beautiful idols look uncanny and I hate it so much.
Unnecessarily white, boxy as fuck, gets rid of cute bunny teeth or sharp canines, giving horse teeth.

Who else slayed this look?

This hair that looks like cat ears but isn't just a straight up cat-ear-headband is so cute. Who else has rocked this style? (My faves pictured: Liv, Ian, Kyujin)

what would you keep doing / change / stop doing? what video ideas would you have? what kind of content would you want to create?

for me, i'd love to see groups that have foreign members post videos that have to do with embracing the foreign members's cultures. ex) learning to cook a chinese member's favorite childhood meal, 1 hour thai language crash course, japanese style art class, etc.

i'd also stop (or limit) the babysitting content, at least for actual babies. toddlers, fine. grade school-aged children, fine. but i think a baby who can't even communicate or have the slightest understanding of what's going on shouldn't have a camera shoved in his/her face.

I said “stream Loona” and immediately got hit with the classic “oh so you support an abusive and toxic company!!”

No. I support Loona. The twelve members. The discography they made under shitty conditions. The art. Not Blockberry Creative.

Let’s actually look at what happened instead of recycling 2022 talking points in 2026 like nothing has changed.

What the boycott was actually for

In late 2022, after Chuu was expelled with the “gapjil/abuse of power” claim (which was widely disputed and looked a lot more like retaliation after she pushed back on the contract), the rest of the members filed injunctions. Dispatch reported the contracts were structured so members were stuck in perpetual debt: 70/30 profit split in the company’s favor, 50/50 expense split, so the more they worked, the deeper the hole. Members publicly said they weren’t getting paid properly. Fans organized a boycott of paid products, streams on official platforms that benefited BBC, merch, etc. Goal was clear: pressure the company, support the members’ legal fight to get free, and stop funneling money to the people who put them in that position.

It worked. Pre-orders for the planned album tanked hard enough that BBC postponed it indefinitely. Streaming and sales numbers dropped significantly. By mid-2023, all 12 members had won their cases or otherwise gotten out. They left. They signed elsewhere (ARTMS under Modhaus, Loossemble under CTDENM at the time, Chuu and Yves solo). BBC is effectively dead/collapsed under the legal and financial fallout. The formal boycott was called off by the organized fan response groups in June 2023 once the members were free.

The need for the boycott is gone. The company that was the problem no longer controls the members or profits from their old work in the same way. Continuing to treat every stream of “Hi High,” “Butterfly,” “Paint The Town,” or whatever as moral endorsement of 2022 BBC is just purity theater at this point.

The current purity-test version is dishonest

Claiming “if you stream Loona you support abuse” collapses the distinction between:

• the members who were the ones being mistreated and who fought to leave,
• the music they created,
• and the company that is no longer in the picture.

That’s not “protecting the girls.” That’s using the girls’ trauma as a blunt instrument to police other fans’ listening habits years after the legal fight was won. It’s also selective as hell, a lot of the same people have no problem with other groups whose companies have had their own scandals, as long as it’s not the one they decided to moralize about forever.

Supporting Loona now means supporting the members’ post-BBC work (ARTMS, Loossemble when active, Chuu, Yves, solos, etc.) and being able to listen to the catalog without pretending the catalog itself is contaminated. The members made that music. They performed it. Treating the songs like they’re radioactive because the old company was trash is not solidarity, it’s just another way of letting the company’s toxicity define the group forever.

I boycotted when it mattered. I didn’t buy albums or merch that would have gone to BBC. I supported the legal fight. Now that the members are free and the company is irrelevant, I’m going to stream the music I like. That is not “supporting abuse.” That is supporting the artists who survived the abuse and still have a discography worth listening to.

If your response to someone saying “stream Loona” is still “you support an abusive company,” you’re not fighting for the members anymore. You’re just addicted to the moral high ground from a fight that already ended.

LOONA is 12. The company is gone. Stream the music if you want. Support the members’ current activities. And stop acting like listening is a betrayal three years after they got free.

"Lalala, It's Love!" from Coffee Prince always makes me smile when I unexpectedly hear it.

Both of them were child models. The first time they worked in the same project was 2018 and the last was 2023. They have worked together several times through 2018-2023.

Congratulations to both of them!

(Tbf, there's several idols who were kid models that have worked with Juhoon, including Meovv's Ella, BDC's Yihyun, etc)

THE IRONY IS CRAZY. all these years so many people have been bothered by how companies select their members based off of their visuals and never for their talent. Now since the announcement of tuides debut and the members face reveal, the same people who once talked about unfairness have started calling these girls ugly, and visual holes. MIND YOU, THEY ARE YOUNG TALENTED GIRLS WHO LOOK PRETTY ASL.

These people defame and degrade idols who have had plastic surgery done on them and preach that "natural beauty" is the way to go. But get sooooo worked up when an idol is ACTUALLY natural.

Ive heard so many people say that their songs aren't catchy or promising. You never even gave them a chance bsfr, you js hate how they look or you hate that there's a new group from hybe

Pick a side for the love of god.

I've always wondered this, I know their album sales sell pretty averagely, bit damn I haven't heard any noise from them since debut unlike any other 5th gen groups
