ig this isn’t really an opinion but it also doesn’t really feel like it fits in the rant category either so idk where this belongs so I’m putting it here anyways
Am I the only person who feels really uncomfortable listen to idol recruitment stories. Like especially for female idols. Young ones too.
At first they’re really cute and funny the idol will be like “oh I was just at the supermarket with my mum and this recruiter approached me and asked me to audition for their company” and you’re like ah that’s so weird imagine that happening to you.
Then you realise the idol became a trainee at 11-14. Like. A grown adult - in many cases probably a man - saw a young teenager, and based on their APPEARANCE ALONE decided they LOOKED GOOD enough to be an idol. THEYRE APPROACHING WHAT THEY DEEM AS ATTRACTIVE CHILDREN-

Let's talk about Ryujin only saying yes because she thought the girl was cute though- /t /j
oml! your so right! I hate the thought of it, young girls constantly being looked on by old ass men. It's weird. As a job? WTH!? Unless they make the CHOICE to audition they shouldn't be watched on and looked out for by grow adults, men or women. Idc

The only time I’ve heard it in an environment that kind of makes sense was Ryujin being scouted at a GOT7 performance. Of course there will be staff there. It’s a show owned by the company. But still creepy though that they make these choices on appearance alone, coz they’re not gonna know who can sing and dance and who can’t just by spotting them in public
Tell me why I never knew Dasom from Sistar has a phobia of getting fat.

(Talking about girl groups since I’m not familiar with boy groups)
I don’t think 2018 should be the marker point for the beginning of 4th gen.
There must be some reason why it is, but the debuts that occured in 2018 just seem like the same sorts of things we were seeing already within 3rd gen. The only debut in 2018 that truly differed from the typical concepts we were seeing in third gen (aka cute or girl crush) was La Vie en Rose.
Latata is often the song I immediately think of when I think of the beginning of 4th gen. But I don’t understand why. Latata isn’t that much different from what Blackpink was doing at the time.
Just to clarify I know it’s not as deep as I’m making it out to be. The generations are just this weird concept used to group idols. I just think whoever decided 2018 was the beginning of 4th gen made an error. 2019 makes more sense to me. The 2019 debuts were just… a change. I noticed this while I was making my ranking girl group debuts thread.
2018 gave us Latata, Hi High and To Heart, girl crush and cute concept songs. What we were already seeing
2019 gave us Dalla Dalla, Bon Bon Chocolat, Bim Bam Bum. To me that’s a much clearer shift.
Silly kpop billies! /lh

i think the shift in generations also has a little to do w a shift in the literal generations of the debuting idols. obviously not always, but around 2018 is when a lot of idols born in the late 90s to early 2000s started debuting, versus idols being mostly born in the early to mid 90s in 3rd gen and late 80s to early 90s in 2nd gen

jeon somi shouldn't be in a grp. i think that she would suit being in a grp better than being a soloist, but she's way too popular. she would just overshadow the other members and be favored by the company, esp at theblacklabel.
Imagine being overweight and saying
"WoMEn CAnt bE FAt" like wat lol
"WoMEn CAnt bE FAt" like wat lol
Is this about Shindong-
Yes lol
Dude I never understood when he said that, because he himself is literally overweight
Like i literally was like "Wot" like I seriously don't understand how he thought he could get away with that...
Like it's one thing if you're skinny, but to actually be overweight and to understand what they go through and still say it
to be fair i've never liked suju, they all suck.
except heechul. heechul is the man
Yes heechul is best boy lol (He's really all I know anyway)
