“Followed Kazuha to a restaurant” HOLD UP, not creepy at all 🙄
The “Also, I’m sorry, but I’m BoA” line is good, but let’s not underplay the passive-aggressive goodness of “I don’t know what you all look like” XD
WHATS WITH ALL THE DATING NEWS AND SCANDALS RIGHT NOW WTF
In relation to Chanty, she’s going to be in for some recovery. I’ve had chronic fatigue syndrome for years, and I still relapse from time to time despite monitoring. I’m really glad she’s not in a spot where she can’t ger out bed and she’s getting the help she needs
insane that Jihyo and chaeyoung were revealed at the same time 💀 but I’m convinced karina and jaewook are dating secretly bc the hate train was insane and jaewook tried to protect them real hard. Hope they’re still happy tg 🤞
the last bit of Wendy and Chungha falling in love with each other is so cuteeee!!! Queen supporting queen!
hybe is a mess
Dating news for kpop idol never exactly ends well eh? We heard the news and congrats them for getting together and they broke up in less than 2 months. Yikes.
Dating in K-industry is straight up PR and for publicity. SO this is my theory:
✨Jisoo and Anh bo hyeon’s dating rumors came out when rumors of lisa leaving the group and issues about contract signing occurred, at the same time Bohyeon’s kdrama ‘flex x cop’ was going to release. Its funny that their dating news came out when jisoo was on world tour and they broke up after jisoo came back from tour, by that time blackpink had signed their contracts.
✨Karina and lee jae wook dating news came out when Lee jae wook’s kdrama ‘the impossible heir’ was airing and almost few weeks ago Aespa had their comeback for ‘Drama’. Lee jae wook’s kdrama ended few weeks ago and now they’ve eneded the relationship. Funny how they blame fans for making them break up lol.
✨Zion.T and chaeyoung, i’m honestly not sure about them but Zion.T did have comeback 3 months ago but that’s too long ago. could be far fetched
✨About hyeri, ryu jun yeol and han so hee, now that’s true tea. There’s some real bad blood involved and its crazy.
‘I’m BoA.’
Queen 😂
People are saying that so much dating news has been dropped to cover something up 👀
Companies make more money when their money makers work non stop without a personal life. So some unethical companies will let their mentally unstable fans do the dirty work.
Chaeyoung and Zion.t are so adorable because he litreally just followed her publically (on instagram) he won the idgaf war and they are cute!
You should have put that in “good/positive things thats happened in kpop this week” segment.
Dude, Karina and Jaewook weren’t even really a “couple” they were clearly just casually dating, but conservative Korea *onscreen* ofc (because there are such wild stories about how the country *really* is). The Karina quote about Transit Love makes a lot of sense (she wants to be in a position like that, dating around), she’s quite probably testing the waters here and there, don’t forget how youth actually is.
Riize has a lot going on recently too ! Man “scandals” after “rumours” after “ boycotts”.
HYBE is a whole hot mess right now. That line about “genocide being a personal choice” for CEO Scooter Braun was insane. Even Britain made a comment about war crimes after the continued murder of journalists and aid workers. Insane.
IMHO opinion the best thing that could happen is that when the contracts over BTS start Jin Hit Entertainment for real. And then we can have music for healing and peace again. ❤😢
Another thing is that all the members of Nine.I have now opened their own Instagram accounts after the termination of their bubble!
I’m glad both Jihyo’s and Chaeyoung’s dating news were well received (from what I’ve seen)
Ok, I’ll be “that person.”
Any debut song from one of the huge machine labels is almost guaranteed a show win or sales record because of how the global spread of kpop continues to get closer to the inevitable crest and fall. Not that they aren’t talented, but too bad if you debuted in 2006 I guess. Your sales will never add up to a 5th gen group no matter how relatively more your sales or wins would likely have counted if released today. Breaking records and accumulating wins just isn’t the measure of much, except that you have a high likelihood that you are the sibling group of already popular label mate. I look forward to the day that I don’t have to hear about a new “record” every episode. It’s a case where numbers, in effect, deceive.
