“Jennie is my favorite member of BlackPink, but I dislike being a fan of this group because the fan culture is so toxic”
I did have to look up ‘bias’ to make sure I was using it right. Kpop fandom is… it’s own little microcosm of slang and conceptual worldviews. Very weird phenomenon to look into, I highly recommend it.
Oh no, it’s way bigger than the bronies ever were. BTS ARMY (the group name for the fans of the group BTS) (depending on source) either equals or exceeds the Swifties (taylor swift fans) in sheer numbers. It’s nuts.
Edit: BTS alone is projected to be responsible for fully ~0.5% of SK’s GDP
I’m taking it to mean Jennie is the name of their favorite butt plug (BP) and it destroys their rectum (deadass), but they can’t fully enjoy it because they’re locked up in one of those genital cages (this fandom is a prison). Must be some weird edging kink.
I still have no idea what the fuck anyone is saying! I can’t tell if something important is happening or if if this is just a conversation between 3 people who had massive strokes
Jennie (an Idol) is my Bias (Favourite Idol) from BP (the group names Blackpink), but this fandom (another word for fan base) is a prison (a place of holding prisoners, used here metaphorically)
Delusional fans who think their idols made it through sheer talent and work ethic. Sure, there are some who actually come from ordinary working-class families, but this particular group is far from it and one of the worst to use as an example.
“I agree wholeheartedly, and I’d further say that it’s not a phenomenon limited to Blackpink; most of the superfans of any K-pop group will insist that they have a great deal in common with their favorite member of the group, and that said member got to their position of fame & fortune through hard work and talent alone [presumably without any unfair advantages like being born into wealth]. This results in an extremely one-sided relationship between performer and fans, where the fans feel a personal relationship with the performer where none could possibly exist”
I’d guess it’s mostly young, easily influenceable boys from poorer surroundings and with a not yet refined taste in music.
“Refined” not meant condescending but in the sense of diversification:
“I know 5 movies. Those are the greatest movies ever!”. And “I now know 50000 movies. Those 5 10/10 from before are now the worst 5 movies ever”.
Jennie is deadass my BP bias but this fandom is a prison
I…don’t understand this sentence at all

Isn’t it just bronies that moved from Japan to Korea?

It’s much bigger and much more intense.
What do you think bronies are? That question makes so little sense to me, I don’t even know where to start.
4chan incels. You know the type. Anime, basements and body odor.
And they’re bronies, you say? What were they doing in Japan?
Doing the dark lord’s work 🫶🏼
Pass
Thank you for sharing?
Np

It’s so refreshing to see somebody who is savvy in young-speak.
I mean that definitely makes sense
Glad I’m not the only one
Curtains for Zoosha?

All the Blackpink members come from wealthy families. I don’t know why people keep trying to portray them as self-made🥴

ikrrrrr, and it’s not just BP, most k-pop stans wanna make their Biases look self made/like them, which is literally like so parasocial
I thought I knew what the word bias meant but I’m not so sure anymore.
It’s just your fav member is your bias, not sure of the origin tho.
Trust me, I don’t think @madamLarp@sh.itjust.works knows either.
it’s kpop stan ideology for your favourite idol of a group
Are you stroking out?
Translated:
oh.
… It’s an information dense jargon.
So much more efficient.
helpp I keep forgetting not everyone knows kpop stan terminology
What is the main demographic of this fandom?
I’d guess it’s mostly young, easily influenceable boys from poorer surroundings and with a not yet refined taste in music. “Refined” not meant condescending but in the sense of diversification: “I know 5 movies. Those are the greatest movies ever!”. And “I now know 50000 movies. Those 5 10/10 from before are now the worst 5 movies ever”.
idk I feel like the majority of the community are girls/fem presenting ppl
I was gonna say, a porsche is crazy expensive in Asia
