On Why I joined "We Hate K-pop"
Plastic surgery - Thanks to kpop, plastic surgery has become a huge trend in korea, japan, taiwan, hongkong and china (and more). girls in these countries feel "ashamed" if they don't have surgery. and everybody lies about, denies the fact that they have in fact had a lot of plastic surgery.
Creativity - The singers have zero creative control over what they produce and sing, other than some lyrics and some melodies. they have so many ghost writers that they do not credit. they don't even choreograph their own dance moves.
we need to be respecting and crediting the song writers and the choreographers for their hardwork, not the singers who are merely puppets and products of their recod label.
Child star factory - Most of the singers are trained for 4 - 5 years in average, a practice hell for 10 hours a day 6 days a week, not being able to have a social life. some of them are not allowed to go to high-school full time even. many stars are prone to depression for this reason.
Toxic fans - Vulnerable people who are obsessed over people who they've never even met, never will. they spend 30-40 dollars per album times 100 albums, just to attend fan meet ups and fan events to meet their stars for 5 minutes in person. then they fly and wait for them at the airports. they fly in to attend korean music shows like the music bank. Also a K-pop album is freaking expensive for any kid, as it comes with photo cards, postcards and other merch. Once they become obsessed, they blow up all of their money on their merchandise.
It's an unhealthy obsession, mostly for people with a lack of social life. A majority of their fandom dickride their favorite singers by saying "let's stream for the next 24 hours, stream as much as we can" and "let's reach 10 million views on YouTube under 24 hours, as fast as we can".
But the funny thing is, they find a new band to worship every year, like IVE, New Jeans, Le sserafim and IZ*one. Twice lost a lot of their fans to these younger girls. also many toxic fans of different groups hating on each other, trolling other fandoms.
Kpop now has a spot on MTV awards, a Kpop category along with the main music categories, so that MTV can make money off of this huge fan base in asia. Nominees like Blackpink performed their song last year, and they are nominated for the same exact song this year. Billboard and Forbes are totally obsessed with promoting BTS so that they can make money off of their south asian fandom, who manipulates the chart by streaming the same songs over and over. Like Corden and Ellen made SO much money promoting BTS in the first place and american media is fully aware of it by now.
Kpop has completely changed the beauty stardard in Asia ever since it first blew up in south asia and china back in 2008- 2009. Nowadays you cannot go any major city in Asia without seeing a bunch of plastic girls in the street. The worst thing about kpop is that the girls are getting prettier and prettier, and thinner over time, due to technical, surgical advancement.
Most, if not all of the girls, are lying viciously about their plastic surgery and diet pills, hence it minimizes and even degrades natural people, and elevates their own status. Kpop promotes plastic surgery and extreme diet on their music videos, that are unattainable and unrealistic without the help of plastic surgeons. The girls are manufatured and assembly line like products, it's like a sexual AI machine making factory.
They flirt with people on camera, in order to appear "friendly to everyone." They want you to think that they are your bestfriends, but the truth is that they do not want to know you. Everything on camera is exaggerated for views, likes and ratings. They will probably like their dogs and cats so much more than they will ever like you. They are just selling a boyfriend and girlfriend sexual fantasy to you, just to profit off your money.
***
Not to mention they "try to hard" on stage, to give you sexual kinks, especially when the girl groups get older.
Showing off your ass cause you're thinkin' it's a trend, It's silly when girls sell their souls, respect is just a minimum.
