My Answers
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. I disagree but I understand why they would think that. Visuals are always heavily scrutinized for their looks and are often the members called untalented the most. It must also be disappointing for the idols to only have their visuals valued, rather than their singing/dancing/rapping.
I don't like when idols are in dramas. There are some idols who are very good actors (D.O-EXO, Chani-SF9, IU), but I also feel like many idols are pushed to do a role for popularity, and it doesn't turn out that well...
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. I feel like some songs definitely could live without the rap, but I generally disagree.
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. Yeah it seems a bit unoriginal and cringy to me. I love Pentagon's 'Shine', but every time they do that hammer dance thing it makes me cringe a bit.
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. What she did is completly wrong, but I am a bit scared for her. I don't want her to be so affected by the bombardment of hate and then take actions such as the ones Mina had taken.
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. She would have had more opportunities and fit the concept really well, but she is perfect in Twice.
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. Sorta agree. I loved 'Psycho' for the first couple listens, but it got boring really quickly for me. It think it was just too slow for me.
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. I'm indifferent because I don't really like any of Got7's music.
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. I prefer 'The Most Beautiful Moment in Life' and 'You Never Walk Alone', but Wings is also amazing. Jin's solo song 'Awake' is like candy to my ears.
No BTS member is underrated. I agree. Even to call the rappers underrated singers doesn't make sense to me, because they tend to be acknowledged for that as well.
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. I agree, sometimes fandoms can be really overwhelming, can cause a lot of pain, and can make a person not want to associate themselves with the fandom.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry.
I agree but there’s more than visual. You have rap, dance and vocals.
I don't like when idols are in dramas.
I don’t watch that many dramas. But some people like it and I like it too.
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs.
I mean you have great girl group rappers like
Ryujin - ITZY
Mimi - Oh My Girl
Moonbyul - Mamamoo
Yoojung - Weki Meki
But I think rap parts make up a song. So I’m gonna disagree.
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy.
It is super cringy. Songs like Baam - Momoland and Shine - Pentagon. They use some Fortnite dances and I don’t think it suits them.
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA.
What she did was horrible. Like horrible. But I don’t like where the hate comments are going. Like how is she gonna learn for her mistakes.
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY.
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY but Twice change in concept currently suits Chaeyoung.
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks.
I feel like it was rushed a bit and I got tired of the song fast.
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs.
Either way. I only like Got7’s latest songs. There older songs aren’t me.
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great.
Not a fan of the album.
No BTS member is underrated.
They are all good in their own ways.
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid.
I learned that the hard way where I unstanned BTS just because of Armys is very dumb. But it’s very dumb. Your better off with music then the fandom.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. i disagree, but it can get really hard though when people have high expectations for ur looks. but personally, i think other positions are harder
I don't like when idols are in dramas. depends, only if they suit the drama
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. lol i strongly disagree, girls can rap too :/ some songs would be better off without the rap, but that goes for boy groups too
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. agreed 100%
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. like everyone else is saying, what she did was pretty much unforgivable but what does bashing do ?
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. i love her in twice (my bias^^) but i guess i can see that she would fit well with itzy
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. disagree, but it did take a listen or two to get used to it
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. ehhh yes and no, though their latest comebacks are amazing
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. disagree, its my fav album from them
No BTS member is underrated. periodt, they are the most popular group in kpop and are worldwide, how can one be underrated ? i just feel like the word underrated is thrown around too much. every group has at least one member who has less ppl biasing them, thats just how it works
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. i agree, as long as u dont bash the group just bc of the fandom
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. I don't like when idols are in dramas. Disagree, some idols are pretty good at acting but I've seen fans who just blindly rate the drama 5/5 just because it has their favs in them...
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs.
Lmao why????
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy.
tRuE!!!!!
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA.
People shouldn't hate/bash Jimin (she won't acknowledge her mistakes), what they should do is support/comfort the victim instead.
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY.
True, but I think she pulls off Twice's concept too.
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks.
I still don't like the song tbt.
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. meh, not really
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great.
That's my second fav album from them
No BTS member is underrated. That's true, ARMYs tend to believe that the rap line in BTS is underrated but they seem to be the most popular/appreciated members
in BTS.
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. That's the main reason I left the BTS Fandom (ARMY). I don't hate the members or their music in fact but I couldn't stand the toxicity and disgusting behaviour executed by the fans.
*Note: I'm not saying that all BTS fans are bad, some are quite nice and friendly.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. hm kinda agree... I don't like when idols are in dramas. disagree. I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. disagree. there are a lot of rap parts in gg songs that actually good. Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. kinda agree. I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. kinda agree. Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. actually yes chaeyoung fit well with itzy's concept. Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. disagree. it's one of my favorite kpop songs. Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. idk, some got7 unit songs are better than got7's songs BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. disagree. No BTS member is underrated. agree. Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid.
i agree.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. Disagree
I don't like when idols are in dramas. Disagree. Some idols make amazing actors and some want to branch out into that business. For some by doing this helps popularize their group if they aren't popular.
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. Depends. Some Girlgroup songs are perfectly fine without raps but for Blackpink for an example, their songs need that rap to show charisma and help improve the song kinda
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. Really depends on the dance kinda.
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. Disagree. She sorta deserves her consequences bullying Mina for 10 years. ngl I think Jimin should've left earlier and Mina would've probably stayed in AOA.
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. She's perfectly fine in Twice she doesn't need to be in Twice but she does fit the concept.
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. Disagree!. Psycho is basically an masterpeice
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. Depends on the unit's strong point.
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. Haven't heard the full album sooo
No BTS member is underrated. Agree.
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. Sure.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry.
Disagree. Even if society expects you to be on top of your looks all the time, it's not really an important role. Kpop idols who have a visual position are literally just as talented as main dancers, vocalists, and rappers. Plus, all members in a kpop group should be considered a visual (imo).
I don't like when idols are in dramas.
Split on this one. I really loved Bomin and Naeun's acting in A-TEEN and IU and Mina's acting in Hotel Del Luna. However I didn't really like Eunwoo's (I love him don't get me wrong) acting in My ID Is Gangnam Beauty.
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs.
STRONGLY disagree with this one. There are many talented rappers in girl groups, like ITZY's Ryujin, GWSN's Miya and Anne, and WJSN's EXY. I like a lot of girl group songs not just because of the vocals and the choreography, but also the raps (check out WJSN's Badaboom and GWSN's Pinky Star for example!!)
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy.
Agree. Although I could give an exception for Pentagon's Shine because it was catchy and was able to bring more fans into their fandom because of the dance and the song itself. However many of these trendy moves have gone out of style to me. Also I wish that groups would stop doing the whoa lmao.
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA.
Agree. I strongly dislike her after finding out what she did to Mina (and possibly the other girls) FOR TEN YEARS. But I don't think she deserves death threats so I am a bit worried.
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY.
Disagree. She's perfectly fine in Twice!
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks.
Disagree. Along with Ice Cream Cake and Peek-A-Boo, it is my favorite Red Velvet title track.
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs.
Ehhh I can't really say much because I'm neutral about their songs (except I really like Lullaby and You Calling My Name).
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great.
Neutral. I didn't like Blood, Sweat, And Tears at all but I really liked the solos on the album. Especially Jimin's Lie and J-Hope's Hey Mama.
No BTS member is underrated.
Strongly agree. I don't even have to explain anything about this fjskdfl
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid.
Agree. I actually unstanned BTS and Blackpink for a while because of the fandoms, but then I stanned them again (BTS during the On era and Blackpink during their unnecessarily long 'break' that trashy YG gave them although they only released one mini album in 2019. I still stan both groups though!).
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. agree
I don't like when idols are in dramas. ehh idk bout this one. i loved IU in dramas tho
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. depends on group or song.
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. agree !
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. yeah....
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. disagree AND agree. she fits perfectly in twice but i would see why people think she would be better in itzy.
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. disagree
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. didn't listen to them yet
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. disagree !! one of my favs~! ♡
No BTS member is underrated. disagree AND agree. i feel like rm and jin is underrated ig, dont come at me pls
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. yes, i agree. i almost unstanned blackpink but i changed my mind after hylt cus it was epic
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry.
not necessarily. I feel like every position has it's struggles but the one thing that is hard about being a visual is that often their other talents go unrecognized which I wish they'd get more recognition for. I don't like when idols are in dramas.
Well, well, well. I don't really have much to say because I've only just recently started watching a kdrama 'He is Psychometric' starring Got7's Jinyoung and I kind of lost interest because I'm not really a huge fan of Kdramas. But I have to say Jinyoung's acting was very impressive and not cringy so it really depends which idol you're talking about. I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs.
No, not at all. I don't listen to that much girl group music but I have listened to some Dreamcatcher and Itzy and the rapping is really good. Dami's rap in Boca is my fav part of the song and it fits really well. Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy.
It can be but it all depends if the choreo is executed well and it fits in or if they just randomly throw the dance in to get more views. I am really worried for Jimin of AOA.
Of course all of her actions were extremely wrong and she deserves the recognition of her wrong actions but I hope she can lead these mistakes to live a quiet life and not disturb anyone else and maintain her health because we don't need another kpop tragedy. Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY.
She could've been been because she would've gained more recognition but she fits in Twice quite well. Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks.
I don't really like red velvet but I liked Psycho for a while until I started hearing like every single second of my life. Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs.
I personally like Got7s group songs better than the unit songs but Focus on Me is pretty good. BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great.
Tbh I didn't like wings that much. I didn't really get the hype of BSandT but I like you never walk alone and the most beautiful moment in life albums a lot. No BTS member is underrated.
That's very true. With ARMY being the largest fandom in kpop and possibly in the world I feel it would be impossible for a BTS member to be underrated in any way. All of them get a good amount of screen time (except for Jin in some vids) and a good amount of lines in each song they are underrated in no way. Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid.
I did unstan BTS because ARMY's can be kinda insane sometimes and go very overboard and same thing for Stray Kids. (They lost my at the Jult) These groups used to be my ults but I felt I didn't fit in with the fandom very well but then again which fandom isn't insane. I think it is very valid to instan if you don't fit in with the fandom and now my ults and Victon and Seventeen. I'd say they have chiller fandoms. But I also ult NCT so...
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. there are other positions that sre harder. disagree
I don't like when idols are in dramas.
some can pull it off, some cant. semi - agree
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. sometimes ot fits, sometimes it doesnt. semi - agree
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. i do find it cringy. agree
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. what she dod was horrible, and shes a horrible person, but i dont want her to do something bad. agree
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. she fits with twice, but i do think that she would also be good in itzy. semi - agree
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. i love it. disagree
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. i dont really listen to got7 so i dont have an opinion on this.
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. agree.
No BTS member is underrated. agree. they all have theyre moments, but some members do need more lines.
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. semi - agree. sometimes it can be valid, but usually its really petty.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. Disagree
I don't like when idols are in dramas. Disagree. Some idols make amazing actors and some want to branch out into that business. For some by doing this helps popularize their group if they aren't popular.
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. Disagree. No songs NEED a rap part but in my opinion it just finishes the song and completes it.
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. I personally don't like "tiktok dances" being used but it helps popularize the song as many people would already know the dance.
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. Depends. She definitely deserves to be kicked out of AOA for bullying Mina for 10 YEARS but I wouldn't wish anything bad upon her so regarding any mental health issues I am distinctly worried for her. Ngl I think Jimin should've left earlier and Mina would've probably stayed in AOA.
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. Disagree. Chaeyoung is in TWICE and she definitely suits the concept more. ITZY is more Teen Crush yet TWICE are just starting to branch out into the more mature concepts to suit their age range and members.
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. Disagree! Psycho is basically an masterpiece
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. I definitely prefer the group songs but I like both :/
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. The album is good, not all the songs are my cups of tea... yet.. I STILL BROUGHT IT 2 YEARS AGO
No BTS member is underrated. Agree.
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. Disagree. You stan a group for the members, music and performances.. The fandom shouldn't matter as long as you don't involve yourself in any of the bad behaviour a fandom participates in.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. I have to disagree.
I don't like when idols are in dramas. idek how I feel since I don’t watch many dramas.
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. ok but that what makes up part of the song. Yes I feel like some raps could use a little more work but like their all fire bro.
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. I mean if they wanna use it, use it. I find it ok.
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. What she did was horrible. But like people really need to stop hating and sending malicious comments. How is she gonna become a better person and learn from their mistakes?
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. Neutral. There were some comebacks where Chaeyoung would have fit Itzy’s concepts and others in Twice.
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. This could be me but I feel like it’s one of their best title tracks.
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. Imma stay neutral on that. Idk how I feel.
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. Nope. I feel like this one was good.
No BTS member is underrated. All of them are unique.
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. Unstanning a group just because of the fandom is kinda dumb to me.
1# Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry.
I disagree. I don't think it's easy but I definitely don't think it's the hardest. 2# I don't like when idols are in dramas.
Depends! If they're good actors, why not? An example would be D.O from EXO. He is a very good actor as well. 3# I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs.
I agree that not every song needs a rap but if the song fits it then why not? 4# Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy.
Not super cringy but can be cringy. I have no further opinion on this. 5# I am really worried for Jimin of AOA.
If her apology to Mina was sincere I would have maybe been worried for her. In my opinion people should just forget about her. She's gone from the industry for a good reason. Don't send her hate neither, just forget her. 6# Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY.
I think she would fit ITZY too but I prefer her in Twice. 7# Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks.
I heavily disagree! Psycho is a masterpiece. 8# Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs.
I listen more to the group songs personally but both are great! 9# BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great.
I disagree. Blood, Sweat & Tears, Boy Meets Evil, Spring Day, Not Today etc are quality songs *for me* 10# No BTS member is underrated.
None is underrated I agree but some of them are underappreciated. (hyung line alert) 11# Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid.
Unfortunately that can be true. As much as I'd want to disagree, I can't.
Visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry. agree and disagree. all positions have a lot of pressure attached to them, and i'm sure it's v hard to have ppl expect you to look flawless all the time.
I don't like when idols are in dramas. no opinion, i don't rlly watch dramas
I wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs. very much disagree lol. some are good, some aren't. honestly, i can vibe to both
Idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy. no opinion rlly.
I am really worried for Jimin of AOA. no opinion, i try to stay neutral in these situations
Chaeyoung would have been better in ITZY. disagree. she couldn't keep up dance wise
Psycho is one of the worst Red Velvet title tracks. disagree, i rlly like it
Got7 unit songs are better than Got7 group songs. i've never heard a unit song, so idk. well, other than focus on me by jus2, which i didn't like
BTS's 'Wings' album isn't that great. disagree, i rlly like it
No BTS member is underrated. agree. underappreciated maybe, but not underrated
Unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid. absolutely!
visual is the hardest position in the kpop industry
agree. idols are expected to fit if not every, then most of the kbs to be considered beautiful i don't like when idols are in dramas
no comment i wish there were no rap parts in girl group songs
disagree. although, i do think that not every gg song needs a rap bc i just find it highly unnecessary idols using trendy/viral dances in their choreography is super cringy
no comment i'm really worried for jimin of aoa
no comment since i hardly know about the situation chaeyoung would have been better in itzy
disagree, she fits better in twice but i could see her fitting some of itzy's older concepts psycho is one of the worst red velvet title tracks
disagree. it's not bad but it's definitely boring got7 unit songs are better than got7 group songs
no comment since i don't listen to got7 bts' wings album isn't that great
disagree. it's not one of their best but i think it's up there with others no bts member is underrated
agree. they're the biggest group in the world yet people have the audacity to call any of the members "underrated." underappreciated might be a better word i think unstanning a group because of a fandom is perfectly valid
disagree. you stan a group bc of the music and/or the members, not the fandom. if you don't like the fandom, just simply don't interact with them
