kpop stans often say they stan idols for their talent
but many won’t even give genuinely talented groups like MONSTA X a chance just because they didn’t debut under SM, YG, JYP or HYBE
sedated hyunjin trying to escape in today's skz code reminded me of when skz told the story of how they all got drunk and hyunjin tried to climb up a mountain at night so leeknow had to bury him in the sand to stop him from escaping 😭
I miss when kpop was weird and creative now everything is watered down because the market focus changed to the US so everything needs to be simpler, palatable and capable of being turned into a tiktok dance
