so. i understand and believe that everyone is entitled to have their own opinion, but pleaseeeeee, keep it to yourselves unless someone actually asks you for yours.
i cant stand the whole K-pop and asian celebrity thing. i've been pretty vocal about it in the past, but since i'm surrounded by people who are fans of that whole thing, i've been trying to just keep pretty quiet about my dislike of the whole thing. i listen to my music, you listen to yours.
but if you're going to try and get me to accept your view, i'm sorry but i'm going to stand up for my own opinion too. i've got a problem with the whole package. chinese, taiwanese, japanese stars. yeah, i dislike them all. but oh my god, the korean stars and their fans are the worst.
what the fuck is it with the guys?!?!?! they all look like fucking girls. seriously. one of the things i paling pantang in life is pretty boys. if you're born with fine features, i dont have a problem with you. but if you start trying to make yourself all feminine and shit, sorry but take yourself and all that trash down another alley. i've literally spent minutes staring at some of their pictures wondering if i'm looking at a male or a female.
80% of koreans have undergone plastic surgery. and amongst their celebrities, i dare say more than 90% of them have had something or another done, and they're open with it. so sorry dearies, your idol or whatever the hell they are, arent really pretty. they're all fake. and they're promoting the whole fake thing. clones everywhere! most of them look so similar that i've got friends who are fans of said person, but cant even tell who she is or from what band she's from just by looking at a picture. what dafuq?
a friend once told me she doesnt really listen to english songs because they're always about sex, or love, or money. yes, i have to admit, the mainstream songs are almost always focused on those few topics. but there are indie songs out there too. when i asked her what do her korean bands sing about, she laughs and tells me that they sing about the same thing too. whattttt?!
since i'm on a roll here, what's with the ridiculously large band?! they've got like what, ten friggin members in a group on average? apparently there's a boy band out there with more than 90 members. some of them dont even know all the members in their band. anyway, back to the smaller bands with what, ten members? out of those ten, only three of them would be able to sing, and they normally form a side band. wtf?! why not just form your own small band with members that can actually sing in the first place?! then apparently some members are there because they act in tv series. helloooooo. if you can act but not sing, then stick to friggin acting and dont try out singing. other members are there to do variety shows. seriously?! is joining a band their way of making a nobody into a B-list celebrity who fast tracks onto the A-list?!
the most ridiculous part of the whole K-pop scene to me is how these people have been groomed for years before their debut. seriously?! you fucking train for years, YEARS, before you release an album and finally debut? they learn singing and dancing and dressing up etc. after so many years of training, all you have to show are seventy percent of your members not being able to sing and dancing that are worse than some back up dancers i've seen. with all your years of grooming and training and dancing everyday at practice etc, why the hell are your dance moves still so basic? the only part of their grooming facade that i wont go into is their dressing up slash making up part, and that is also only because i've found their fashion to be bizarre from the start so i just tune that completely out whenever possible.
and cant you fucking come up with your own songs?!?! apparently korean record companies like to buy english songs and use them or whatever the fuck it is they do. my friend insists its not plagiarism, but whatever, it still is to me. thats just low. i've met people who listen to korean and even chinese songs, and when i let them listen to the original english song, they just go "they're copying the koreans!" sorry buster, but most of the english songs that your korean stars use came out years and years before the koreans bought it or whatever.
have you ever heard of someone trying to sing a song in a language that they do not speak? you friggin' butcher it. when i hear people who do not speak korean trying to sing korean songs, i just wonder if they realize their mispronunciation might result in them saying that they're faggots and idiots in korean instead. i do see the justice in that.
i realize i'm going to get a lot of heat from this, but whatever. my sister and cousins are into the whole k-pop scene. ninety percent of my friends here love k-pop. but i dont. so keep your thing away from me, and i wont have to choose between gorging out my eyes and ear drums or trashing your idol in front of you.
ps. i still love you, really i do, just dont try to get me to love that whole asian-celebrity thing.
