I don’t get why Kpop Stans are so desperate to pretend like privilege doesn’t exist in the industry

Omg yes, this really annoys me (lol)... as all the other posts here already stated, privilege is nothing bad.

They didn’t ask for it; they’re just building on what they’re given, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

I love how you said that, sums it up so well!

E.g., moas...some love to state that txt didnt have any privilege because theyre not from any big 3 company. But...they had a privilege. Theyre under the same company bts is under. Of course people where exited to see what big hit is gonna do next. Of course kpop Fans had their eyes on them. any group debuting under hybe/big hit has a privilege nowadays. Even if theyre not officially part of the big 3. I honestly dont really now how to properly state my point here without offending anyone...sorry if i did. :-/

But any "privileged" group out there where just building on what they where given. They also had to train hard for that. Privilege is not downgrading them. There is really nothing wrong with that.

I think a group having 900 photocards for an album is too much. We were promised a Full Album for aespa, its now a Mini instead. While LE SSERAFIM will still release their 1st "Full Album", it will include only seven new songs... Can we please get more ACTUAL Full Girlgroups Albums? Definition of filler members: Has the definition changed now that smaller groups are trendier? What BamBam(Got7) said about NewJeans Haerin is extremely creepy to me I don’t think criticizing a company is going to do anything Sometimes, I find myself baffled at the microscope of high standards that idols are held to. I just asked ChatGPT to come up with a plan for Kep1er and I think it did a better job than their actual management is doing. Seeing Newjeans Tokyo girl collection performance live felt Like a ' let down. ' What upcoming kpop things are you excited for? Blackpink does a lot of things K-pop fans wish their faves would do, yet they still get a disproportionate amount of hate. I feel like Le Sserafim might become the ‘Red Velvet’ of the 4th generation success wise BTS solo fans are so obnoxious and irritating Has anyone else seen Blackpink’s ridiculous touring numbers? When it comes to girl groups, social media narratives often have no correlation to the level of success. Looking at some of the year end numbers for EXO, i wonder why SM doesn't capitalise on them more.
