Bro I try to not be a toxic stan but I know I kind of am . And get yourselves ready, cause this is gonna be a 'long ass ride' (haha. Follow my account if you got the reference) . But also, some of these behaviors may not even be that bad, but just something that I don't like or something, but whatever.
1. I want to date/marry idols at least 3 years older than me . I mean, it's an weird thing on it's own, but the thing is, I was born in 2009, which means i'm twelve, and going to be thirteen this August. But still. Then youngest idol that I want to date is 15 years old, which means that they are born in 2006. I mean, a huge majority of K-pop stans do that, but I mean how would your parents react if they see their young child gushing over an idol that is so much older than him/her/any other preference because we don't judge here ? I mean, i KNOW for a fact that my parents would blow up if I came up to them and said "Hey Mommy and Daddy this is my boyfriend, and he is at least a decade older than me.". Like what? But anyway, onto the second one .
2. My hate/disgust for Male/Female idol or Y/N fanfics . I mean , I know that a lot of your already know what I mean . And it also has to do with the fact that I was/still am huge fan of Yaoi Manga/Manhwa before I got into the K-pop fandom . So of course I only like reading fanfic like BxB , Mpreg and Omegaverse mixed in with other genres .
2. When I used to be an ARMY, I was hardcore shipping Taekook. Like I was reading all of this nasty ass fanfic on them and everything.
3. I got myself into some heated online arguments, whether with K-pop stans or not, because I was acting dumb on the internet.
4. When I got myself into K-pop (which was in late 2020, due to a near-death experience) , my whole life revolved around BTS. Like, it affected my grades and social life in a bad way, even though my grades were already shit before then. But also , some of the factors that contributed to me almost failing 6th Grade was that :
#1: It was my first year in my middle school, and everything thing was pretty confusing , and there was a lot of work , and that work was pretty hard .
#2: I had to stay out of school for a bit becaue of my near-death experince , which was Diabetic Shock , which now led me to having Type 1 Diabetes , but whatever .
#3: Virtual learning was not for me . I mean , I was always sleeping , never getting to classes on time , And was just being lazy .
#4. I did not like my teachers. The thing was , they were not bad teachers, nor did I hate them , it's just that they made the subjects seem too boring for me.
#5. The classes were boring and hard . Like , can you believe that my ELA class was 2. HOURS. LONG??
But now I am doing much better in 7th grade , because I have made it onto the Silver Honor Roll , and am getting much better grades now . And it also helps that the classes I have are easy and enjoyable , and that I actually like my teachers now . Even though my days have been kind of shitty lately . Of course , I am still obsessed with K-pop , but it hasn't done anything bad to my grades luckily .
But now , back to on what I was originally talking about . All of the shitty , toxic behavior that I exude as a K-pop stan .
5. I used to think that if I got into any other groups instead of BTS , that I was cheating on them. But now , I have realized that that bullshit is dumb , and that one, none of these K-pop idols know that I even exist , so they won't even know/care , and that I was really making myself miss out on all of these very awesome K-pop groups . And now here I am , I am a Multi-stan now !!
6. when I first started out as a K-pop stan, I hated SM Entertainment groups. Like, I especially hated EXO, like I thought they were trash (which they are not, and you should check them out if you haven't already), But here I am now, stanning EXO, NCT, and SHINee, and biasing Baekhyun.
7. I used to hate on every girl group except for SNSD and Red Velvet. I mean, it was obviously had something to do with fair of my faves dating. But now I have seen to gone past that, and now am into TWICE.
8. I kind of move in and out of fandoms. The thing is, I don't see this as toxic K-pop stan behavior , but I just don't the fact that I did it . So here are some groups that I did the in-and-out with: BTS(The group that I stanned for the longest of times), Stray Kids, TWICE, Red Velvet, TXT, ENHYPEN, and SEVENTEEN. I feel like these are the groups that I was into for a short amount of time, that I just don't stan anymore. It's just that I lost interest a bit after I got into them. It doesn't mean that I don't like them, or listen to there music anymore (even though there are a few that I don't listen to; or just rarely listen to there song, as in BTS, TXT, ENHYPEN, TWICE, RV, and Skz), it just means that I have moved on with them pretty quick, but definetly chech out all of these groups, because they all got some really good shit up their sleves. But then I might just like the group , and listen to their songs , but I either just don't know them well enough to say that I stan them , or that I just don't stan them , because for some reason , it makes me feel weird inside , but I don't know why .
9. At this point, I don't even know who/what to think/believe in the Woojin scandal, and the Kris Wu scandal, especially with the Kris Wu scandal. Like, on one hand, you got got Du Meizhu over here with some pretty solid evidence and shit, but then you got Kris Wu's side, and even her friend, saying that she is lying. Like, WHAT DO I EVEN THINK AT THIS POINT, I DON'T KNOW. But either way, Kris Wu is in jail, and his career is ABSOLUTELY DECIMATED!! And with the Woojin scandal, it's just "what did Woojin do?", and I don't even know what is up with him at this point, but whatevs.
10. I used to hate on ATEEZ. Now, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH MY BRAIN DURING MY TIME AS AN ARMY. But let me just tell you, that I did not like their shit at all. I just pretty much one second of 'Say My Name', (I mean, I didn't even hear them sing at all, so dumb. And also listen to that song, because that song, and all of their other songs too, are absolute bangers.) and thought that they were shit. Like whenever I thought of them, I would think "Ew, their songs are trash." But I was SO WRONG. All of their songs are ABSOLUTE BOPS, and I love all of them. Not to mention their stage presence, vocals, rapping, and dancing skills are god tier, and it also doesn't hurt that they are all GOREGOUS!! And also, I really like their outfits (like dang, I want to know how to dress like them, and to acessorize, and rock a skirt like Hongjoong). And you wonder why everyone who goes to their concerts falls in love with them. They are just a perfect group, and I can't wait for them to get even more succesful then they already are. I just can't believe that I went from hating on ATEEZ, to stanning ATEEZ. (Well actually I can, they are ATEEZ of course.). And my Ultimate bias is Hongjoong, while my biases are the rest of ATEEZ. And now onto the final one for tonight, here you go .
11. I find my self choosing the center, or the most popular member , as my bias . And it's because, I don't want to seem like weird to the fandom for not picking the most popular member, even if it goes against my perosnal opinion. I mean, with ATEEZ, it's different though. I picked Hongjoong as my bias, even though he is actually the third most populat member, just because he is the center. I picked him when I thought that I was going to get over ATEEZ really soon. But now, I have come to love Hongjoong genuinely, and not just for his position. And I come to love all of the members of ATEEZ no matter what. And I also love the fact that Hongjoong supports so many good causes, and has inspired the other members of ATEEZ to do the same. And how they also support Black Lives Matter is great too.
And you know what, here are some pictures of our cutie Baekhyunee, and our adorable leader Hongjoong.

ah adorable .
Well , now that the end of my whole entire rant , and I'll see you next time guys, bye!
(And wow, I have also notices how this thing just sounds like a whole entire Youtube vidoe script, but whatevs.) Goodnight!!
And also , I am so sorry for my bad grammar/spelling , and my spacing of the commas and periods etc. But the reason behind it is that years ago , my mom told me that putting a space between them was the correct way of going at it . And I have never stopped doing that since , because it has just become a habit . But anyways , goodnight !!
