I hate AllKpop 

kpopsecrets:

Those self righteous pricks always embed my videos WITHOUT my permission, use my links WITHOUT notifying NOR crediting me!

My youtube/niconicodouga/tudou links always have some degree of privacy, such as the vids being set to private/unlisted. This is because I record them for my personal use, and for certain members of my friends and family who are Koreans who have moved overseas and have no access to Korean IP addresses. I don’t intend on sharing in case of any legal problems, and I always delete the vids after everyone of my family and friends have viewed them, which is usually around 2 weeks after posting.

I guess one of my ‘friends’ must work for allkpop, because my vids keep ending up there, resulting in MANY C&D warnings from the listed companies. Which is a waste because I was the only link for my far flung relatives to view their homeland tv programing.

I have contacted allkpop over and over and over again to tell them to stop using my vids.

Their reply?

I should be happy that they’re giving me fame and channel views. That I am useless without them…. And that they WILL continue to hunt me down for my videos wherever I go because I’m kind enough to use HD. And that it’s my stupidity that led to the C&Ds because I’m stupid enough to be used by them (allkpop)

If they have their own offices, surely they can hire thier own recorders/uploaders! Why must they rely on a third party? And it’s appalling that they would trample on other users and let them shoulder the brunt of the fines/C&D warnings just to get their weekly content.

God, they’re such a scam!

s!b apparently allkpop is the best site in the world and can do no wrong in ‘reporting’ all things kpop.

I don’t think anyone likes them; posters or users, they are all so damn biased and ignorant



Sexiness in Kpop 

kpopsecrets:

I hate how people are acting like girls being sexy in kpop is new. It seems like they think female singers weren’t sexy up until 2009. Sure singers might not have been dancing like Hyuna or Minzy but they were still sexy. Lexy, Ivy, Harisu, BoA, Swi.T,Chae Yeon, Lee Hyori, Um Junghwa, and Baby V.O.X. have had some of the sexiest videos in kpop. There is nothing wrong with a singer having a sexy image unless you they are a child. These women are not sluts and whores because they are sexy but calling sluts and whores makes you immature and look stupid. If dancing sexy makes idol girls sluts, then your precious perfect oppa is a man whore.

s!b: The “oh so conservative and pure” Hyuna and Minzy haters will have an issue with this.

I would like to add that the gender equality problem is the most obvious when it comes to new debuting groups and these comments irritates me the most.

Whenever a new girl group debuting, fans will be like:

“Stop f**king debut groups!!” “Another fail KPOP girl group.” “The cutesyness gotta go.” “That girl reminds me of Sailor Mercury from Sailor Moon! LOL.” “She looks like a toad…” “Their name is spelled UGLY!!” “SNSD/2NE1 WANNABES” 

exception: YG (SM/JYP) new groups

Whenever a new boy group is debuting, fans will be like: 

“aww these guys are so cute, what’s their name?” “My babies!! Noona crying happily <3” “They deserve it because they have been working so hard!” “HOLY SHIT THEY DIDN’T LIPSYNC!!” “MY BODY IS READY”

how kpop has destroyed my view of beauty. 

kpopsecrets:

Since I have been into kpop, sure its about the music yet their appearance counts too. When I see new girl groups, it all depends on how they look. Most of them have the ”perfect” face and body. Most have a V face, S line and other ”lines”. They are actually pretty skinny and they weight very little. 

Sometimes, I think that I want to look like them, I want to be perfect. Sure whatever call me a ”wannabe” but you know it’s true, you want to be ”perfect”. Sometimes I try to look at other idols that have the same age as me and try to weight like them yet they are way too skinny. (i’m pretty young..14 go head judge me all you want but I don’t care.)

When that doesn’t work I look for those with the same height as me and I try to reach their weight yet they are older than me by like 5-10 years. I just feel fat. I’m 164cm and weight 53kg. 

All I’m happy with is my legs… because they are the same measurements of SNSD. 

I keep getting discouraged everyday of how I look.

Now for the boys… My ideal type has now high expectations.

Most of the guys are tall or really tall. Are really handsome, A bubbly personality, most are good at dancing and singing, and last of all Korean. In the country I live, it’s really hard to find.

(Sure I’m young but you know I can dream.)

This is my story. 

Kpop might have certain beauty standards, but don’t blame your high expectations solely on Kpop. Your life is filled with advertisements and ideals that are made to be there to change your expectations. You need to know that it’s not only Kpop that has standards. There are many things around your life that is made to shape a certain lifestyle for the purpose of making you consume certain products.

For example, you might be walking to your school and you will probably pass by many ads telling you that slim=attractive, Starbucks=the ideal place to social with your friends, Nike=you can be an athletic individual by purchasing their shoes, etc.

These standards exist and although it’s difficult to completely isolate yourself from them, you should know that many of these are idealistic and unrealistic, and sometimes these images are achieved by unhealthy diets.

Not all the members of girl groups (eg. SNSD) fit into the ideals that they are advertised as (eg. long legs and attractive faces); this applies to all groups, including boy groups.



KPop Secrets!: Death threats 

itshysterie:

kpopsecrets:

I used to upload youtube vids of random variety shows and weekly concerts for my family and friends since I’m studying in South Korea. Those links are unlisted and I didn’t think of making them private since I thought I had trustworthy ‘friends’.

Well, sometimes my vids made it as alternate links…

Okay. Seriously? People are so freaky about freaking video files? Let me not live on this planet anymore…

I don’t know if I should take this seriously or not because I don’t see the point of someone from the other side of the Pacific Ocean planning to murder you because of some videos.

Reverse Sexism and Kpop 

kpopsecrets:

There is sooo much sexism in Kpop. Not only from artists and Entertainment industries, but more so from the fans. 

Especially reverse sexism. I was watching a show with MBLAQ where the hostess were trying to FORCE Lee Joon into showing his body when he was clearly uncomfortable and I’ve seen the same happen to Seungho. And people would comment “Good job!” and are all over videos saying “abs *_*” 

If the hosts had been men doing that to women, people would’ve been PISSED. And when girl groups use what they got, antis call them sluts, but then turn around and demand that guy groups do the same thing! It’s disgusting. It’s offensive to not only women but to men as well. 

At first when I heard about a pissed off Men’s Rights group in Korea regarding a MV where a woman treated men like dogs, I was all “there are Men’s Rights groups?” But now I get it, Kpop fans can be just as bad as pervy men! And that’s not gender equality, it’s wrong no matter which sex does it! 

s!b: My friends are like this, only caring about certain idols or boy groups for their bodies when I choose my biases off the personality they decide to show <3 

This not only applies to Kpop, it’s commonly found in the entertainment industry because they are entertainers and they are just providing the ideal image that the public wants. In some way it does show the severeness of discrimination in Korea (especially sexual and racial) and it reflects on their societal norms. It’s sad but there are many things that idols can’t choose freely themselves.

This is really similar to what I’m studying at school and it really irritates me when I see people bash girl groups and saying that they are sluts when they clearly don’t know what the term means and it’s clearly just an image that they are pulling off; this never happens to boy groups at all. Fans are easily pleased by boy groups even when their talent is equal or even lower than some girl groups. I find the girl group problem very special because from my knowledge, they don’t receive as much hate locally in Korea (but boy groups still seem to have an advantage).

The reason why Kpop is sexist in many ways is because a considerable majority of the audience is female and this inequality increases demand for more fan service from male idols.



IU and TaeTiSeo 

kpopsecrets:

This just come out of my mind suddenly, but I think SM decided to make a taetiseo sub unit to promote now because IU decided to not promote her newest single on music shows. And also because EXO has just debuted so they need a boost by putting them in taetiseo music video.

You can look at music shows (it was music bank if I’m not mistaken) that IU and TTS are battling for the number 1 and although I like Twinkle, I believe IU would have won if she promote/appeared at music shows. Well SNSD has a large fanbase in korea but IU is a singer and non-kpop fans korean people might like her more than idols.

I don’t hate tts or snsd but I wish IU could win on music shows. I enjoyed her latest single a lot.

s!b : a lot of my friends are sone and they’re going to say “taetiseo is a great singer too” uhm well idols are more like performer and entertainer while singers are singers. It’s two different jobs why can some people see.

FYI, IU was prepping for her solo concert so I’m sure she doesn’t even care about the awards anyways. It was a correct decision because she is already doing really well in sales without promotions and if she chose to promote at that time, she will need to dedicate a lot of time to rehearsals and interviews.

It seems like you are saying that TTS are performers and they are not singers but IU is an idol too and being an idol doesn’t mean they are not great singers, it’s just their image is being set that way.

On another note, you are ignoring other competitors that are also doing well on the charts such as Baek Ji Young, Ulala Session, and G.NA.
