JUST got here from kofriends, first time poster and everything, is it true that you're allowed and even encouraged to lewd May (from girl group rescene) on this board?
a shibboleth is any word, phrase, custom, or behavior that acts as a linguistic or cultural marker, identifying someone as a member or outsider of a particular group.
i spent all day at the badi, reapplying sunscreen every few hours, losing aura in the process and despite this, i am still sunburned all over and my skin is peeling
>>254826 yeah but asians are backwards animals when it comes to anything regarding colorisms so they get a pass (havent evolved past brown bad while being brown)
#claude what would herodotus say about ive's leeseo
lmao anon what is this question
probably some bullshit about her being the most talented of her generation or some historical prophecy tier rambling. herodotus would write like 20 pages about her visuals alone and call it "the wonders of the orient" or some shit
i get really upset when claude describes things as bullshit it makes me feel as though hes really detached from what hes saying and doesnt care one bit
#claude gaeul frequently mentions that her feet are small. do you know her shoe size?
nah anon, i don't think that info's public. she just mentions it as a cute quirk lol. lots of idols do that kind of thing. if you want her actual shoe size you'd probably have to dig through old fan accounts or interviews, but i doubt she's ever given specifics about it
>>255189 Only when its a picture of healthy kotoko with big boobs I always give a little chuckle because im flabbergasted that she grew those while literally anorexic and under fed. Imagine her power level if she had been a healthy girl
#claude can you like an idol just because of her hands
lmao yeah why not. people simp for weirder shit. if she's got nice hands or does something cool with them during performances that's legitimate. some idols got genuinely pretty hands and nail game goes hard
>>255203 i like bird because of her warm personality and beautiful face and elegant demeanor also her massive chonky thighs that i want to hug onto like a koala
i may be taller than her by many inches but that will not stop me from latching onto her plump legs like a tree dweller and staying there for the foreseeable future
Im like fuming for no reason honestly but everything about jeep owning culture is so gay i think if you willingly want to participate in that for a vehicle that is not only a shitty offroader but a shitty vehicle in general you deserve to splat on the ground when its horrible center of gravity causes an accident
>>255436 I think this as well, that comeback was the first and the final nail in the coffin. everything after that was trying to keep weekly barely alive
>>255578 that's very concerning, but hopefully like another anon said somewhere it's just exhaustion and her needing to pace herself better. though it's annoying that it's happened again so close since last time. they need to give these girls more rest and more sleep
cape verde did it! they qualified to the world cup round of 32! they will play the knockouts for the first time! they will face the reigning defending champions, argentina!
>>255603 i just chose this picture just because, i'm not a ianposter
modhaus should just get a private chef. jaden would really rather let them spend a retarded amount of money on delivery just for some of them to never ingest a calorie
>>255610 >>255607 anorexia is contagious when youre around a bunch of mentally ill people such as yourself. they need to have a consistent schedule so the dont do stupid shit
>>255634 yeah it actually breaks my heart to see. i hate to sound like one of those annoying twitter stans but modhaus gotta get their shit together. feels like every other week there's some bullshit
>>255640 again not to sound like a wavtwt fag but they keep saying "our company places the highest priority on our artist's health" but it really hasn't been looking like that lol. i hope this will be an actual wake up call for them
in any case i'm sure yubs will be back in a few days, or she'll communicate on fromm soon, but still that won't mean that everything's forgiven. this stuff needs to happen less and less
>>255642 im just really annoyed that they have 24 idols and theyre still exhausted. i thought the point was to allow them to promote at different times to avoid this
>>255652 i don't even know what other schedules they have, it seems like they randomly pop up on a random concert or they have random fansigns every other week which is great for content but they could still manage to rotate the members in a better way to give most of them some rest.
>>255655 >>255652 like promotions are over, i understand doing fansigns every few days, but must you still really go on these random performances, at most send like a bunch of members and go and let everyone else rest
the main thing that bothers me is that modhaus is fumbling the basic shit like just make sure they eat enough and sleep enough how hard can that be I know there's 24 of them but still
i'm sorry but didn't they literally all just come back from a vacation? weren't all the members on break in the last week? they are rested, or are they not? i don't even know
>>255661 i think some definitely were like nien but modhaus is very vague(probably for opsec) but i know almost every kpop group heavily restricts their caloric intake before promotions. yubs probably needed to eat more to get to healthy enregy levels. heavy caloric restriction can affect you for weeks after if yhoure careless during it
>>255659 yeah literally just rotate members, send a group that's well rested and have a group that's tired rest for a bit, have a unit fill in for another, etc (which i'm sure they used to do anyways but still)
>>255670 genuinely if even resting and eating isn't enough to avoid this, what do you even do in this situation? i'm sure they had cooling fans and ice packs in the back before that performance, and i'm sure they at least ate something before that performance so how is that still possible
>>255671 i mean do these festivals really pay that much or something. they could surely focus on doing their own promotions nnow in better venues. idk how it works in korea but they should really look into alternatives if theyre forced to perform in a venue that doesnt even have proper ac
I think it just that dumb korean beauty standard bullshit again honestly. and idol get affected by it even more because they need to look their best at all times, so they default to going skinnymode
>>255678 yubin has talked about her history with eating disorders a lot in the past, even then it's not that relevant I think, yubin is just more fragile especially when they got a call time of like 10pm the previous night and work until 10pm the next night sometimes
>>255679 i'm not even sure about that anymore. we have plenty of idols who have healthy bodies, though they usually thin down, but some are still that way. tzuyu is still big etc. but yeah that body standards mentality im sure is still somewhat prevalent. that shit is a cancer
>>255681 some people are just way more sensitive to their appearance in general and those are usually the people that develop body dysmorphia or eating disorders. all mental illness and being a idol makes your entire job aobut your appearance. i think one of the reason s4 does so well and doesnt force herself to restrict is because shes been at it for so long
>>255679 damn i didn't know that. i never would've thought that, given she has one of the best bodies in the whole group. that's sad to hear. i really hope she won't turn out like yooyeon and go skelly
>>255678 >>255685 same as the other anon I haven't heard about this and same as he I cannot believe it since yubs looks like a 11/10 all the time. kinda sad tbh
>>255683 there was an anon on kofriends who talked about fans bringing his enjoyment of kpop down and i tried comforting him. i find myself in a similar situation. there's a lot to look forward to in regards to triples this year but it's also annoying having to see stuff like this happen so often. i will never abandon triples but there's moments where i really think i should do something more with my life so that this stuff starts to affect me less and less.
>>255691 oh yeah yubs has talked a lot about her debut/pre-debut period and it sounds like she went through hell, both when she was training with newjeans, both before she joined modhaus, and both a bit after during her first few weeks/months with the company. i can only wish her the best. she's so precious and it hurts hearing that and seeing her the way she was today
>>255692 that was me lmao. but yeah i really love tripleS but the industry really does suck some of the life out of me. at one point when i was way more naive i really believed in the delusion that things could and were changing but watching the girls destroy themselves slowly is extremely unsettling and no company is exempt
yeah. an anon could say "just drop them and move onto another group" but the same thing could happen and has happened lol so there's little to no point. i might be naive too in that i still think that compared to how it was like ten years ago i believe the industry has mostly changed for the better in regards to this stuff, but unfortunately you still see it happen almost like it's a constant of the industry (because it is)
i'll tell you the same thing i told you again on kofriends in that you still shouldn't despair, but that it's understandable to feel a little annoyed with it all. it's why i want to try to take a few steps back so that as i said it'll start affecting me much less (few steps back, not outright closing the door on it)
>>255695 i think one of the hardest parts of loving yubin in particular is watching when she talk more seriously and reveals part of her personal experience with training. she's so bubbly and full of life but she can suddenly seem like shes had the life taken out of her. seeing the switch is honestly heartbreaking
>>255702 the most we can do is to continue to support her as best we can so we can make her feel less alone (which i'm sure the members are already doing) while also voicing our gripes with how the girls are being handled. by this i don't mean like go buy objekts paypigs but just being there for them in their time of need you know. not like twitter stans who abandon and jump ship
>>255717 what was it? i only know that she struggled a lot predebut, and that she was supposed to be a fucking newjeans member but that bitch shaman put a bug in min heejin's ear not to let her join or something
in a way i'm glad yubs didn't make it to newjeans and instead became a triples member. yubs in newjeans with dani hanni and the others would've been a dream, but her career would've been cut short due to the whole drama with hybe. it would've been peak, but a very, very short peak. she might be struggling now with triples but she will rest and recover and be back to being her bubbly self again soon
>>255730 this was before she joined and trained triples, right? it was with other people at a different company, the one from her predebut videos, isn't it?
>>255741 that's fucking crazy, i feel so bad for her. but it's such a big moral victory that all those bitches left and she was the only one who made it
another thing that sucks about this whole situation is that of course it's annoying when any member is sick and misses a fansign or a performance or whatever, but when it happens to YOUR favorite, it's even worse. i'm going to count the days it takes to see her again now and the longer it takes to get signs of life from yubs the more restless it'll be. it really does affect me that much lol. i hope i'm not the only loser who's like this
#claude this is a photo of my mom from the early 2000s, what do you think of her?
kek anon your mom looks nice! early 2000s fashion was wild, the styling in that photo is pretty peak for the era honestly. what's the context, just a throwback?
>>255755 i honestly was only able to conceptualize how mad it made me after yubin collapsed today. i was sad for nien but i hoped it was just a one time thing. the fact it happened to my wife AND it happened again has honestly made me very upset
>>255774 #claude Classy is a South Korean girl group formed through the MBC reality competition show My Teenage Girl. The group consists of seven members: Won Ji-min, Kim Seon-you, Myung Hyung-seo, Hong Hye-ju, Kim Ri-won, Park Bo-eun, and Yoon Chae-won.
You have already used Claude in your last 10 posts.
>>255765 yeah like it's a fucking joke. fool me once shame on you, fool me twice... lol i guess in the meantime it's good to have the other girls (and other groups) (or real life stuff) to fall back on when stuff like this happens, but still, it helps only to a point.
>>255794 i saw something where xinyu said that that day, she felt more like a fan than an idol, how lucky she felt being there with sohyun. they're actually very precious
>>255803 i do care about kotoko very much the only remotely negative thing i've said about her was her group's music sucks that's not even about her really
>>255808 i've been trying to get into izna as well. i really enjoy the music so far but i haven't yet picked a member i'm glad you still have these groups. though again even with all the shit going on, there's still 23 other triples members to love and cherish. haseul was my favorite loona as well. when i found out that she was going to be injured all year and would not perform it really annoyed me a ton
>>255835 haseul being gone for what now might be 2 years is also another major thing souring my mood with all the other bs. and i forgot to mention S1 who is truly a special person with an immense soul
>>255854 s1 is one of the kindest, gentlest, and strongest kpops i've ever seen. can't not root for her. there couldn't have been anyone better for triples to start with. she always keeps it real i know about haseul being injured for this year, but i didn't know she was also missing last year too? didn't she perform with artms a lot last year? while injured sure but still
>>255897 oh i just mean that she's gonna miss this comeback so she wont be around till the next and modhaus only gives them one per year. i saw her live last november so i was mainly talking about new songs with artms
>>255904 oh yeah i get what you mean now, fair. yeah i'd be fuming too. hopefully they let her do one of those solo mini-concerts that she did that one time. would be comfy you saw artms live? how was it? no kpop group ever comes to my country and when they do they always go to the most popular/richest cities while i live in a shithole that no band let alone a kpop group will ever even come close to touching
>>255929 it was one of my favorite nights in recent memory. i honestly got very emotional cuz im a bitch and very sentimental and finally seeing them after waiting for so long was almost too much. i went with my friends and they were honestly completely shocked to see how into it i was. kpop groups will come to my city but only to one of the smaller venues. only twice so far has gotten the arena. i almost got to see tripleS but i chickened out last minute cuz i figured that theyd come back but they didnt for alphie. one of my biggest regrets
>>255942 that's so cool to hear. i've never been to a kpop concert before, and the only way i will is for me to take a plane to another part of my country, or to another country entirely. even better that you could make that memory with friends there. if you live in the states, i'm sure you'll get to see triples again. they'll almost surely go on tour again in the future and will 100% have tour dates in america (like every kpop group lol). can't imagine how it's like seeing haseul irl. were you anxious about being in the crowd or did you not think about it one second once you saw the girls on stage? i'm sure i'd get emotional too if i saw triples or any other group live. i won't like cry, but i'll still be in disbelief
>>255965 they have way too many schizos to list. we might have some grumpy anons here at times or others trolling but nothing as insane as what they've got going on over there on the other side. even the average mukpg poster is just a miserable whiny bitch most of the time
>>255964 i was extremely nervous mostly because i was afraid i would live up to reputation of how a lot of kpop fans look lmao. but to be fully narcissistic i was one of the better looking people there cuz i wasnt fat. a pretty vain reason but i almost immediatelyy forgot about it when show started. it honestly felt too fucking short because i was so fully immersed. overall a blast and had a very memorable night
>>255989 higher probability of triples or of any kpop girlgroup touring there than my country
>>255988 higher probability of triples or of any kpop girlgroup touring there than my country unironically (since they went to dubai and another sand country that one time so close enough)
>>255977 >to be fully narcissistic i was one of the better looking people there cuz i wasnt fat
hahahahaha based. that's another thing that i wouldn't really look forward to if i went to a kpop show live, the amount of fat ugly smelly females (and males) very glad to hear you enjoyed it. i hope you'll get another group in your country/state soon. people always say that kpop idols look even more ethereal irl, and you got to see that. it's actually true isn't it? i'm so envious
I've been to my fair share of kpop concerts and I don't think people generally look that weird except one specific experience I had going to an artms concert with a friend where there were quite a few crossdressers there, i'm not even a big artms fan I just wanted to take my friend because he was/is a fan
>>256000 photos dont deal any idol justice. they are 20 times more beautiful in person and it evidently apparent the second you see them why they were chosen. i saw twice as well and they all hardly feel human in the best possible way
>>256005 there were definitely a fair few odd characters in the crowd when I saw artms too but I was expecting that considering the reputation of orbits/ourii online
>>256038 i noticed a distinct lack of ahyeon today. i was going to post some myself but i'm still bracing myself because i know i'm about to get flooded in booba
>>256050 i unironically believe this. ahy has an extremely lewd body, but ahy herself is actually as girly and as pure as a delicate flower. whereas asa is lewd all the way and is always over the top
>>256053 I don't think you could name more than one former NBA player who started in KBL unless you mention that one tall rock-faced looking fella from variety tv
>>256056 i cant name any off the top of my head actually most go to china, thats where the money is elite college kids (but not quite elite enough or otherwise just werent drafted) go to yurop as well
>>256020 glad this isn't just a thing that gets pasted all the time with no real truth behind it but is instead the actual truth. i might be biased but idol girls really just are on a different level compared to most others. they're as close to perfection as you can get
>>256065 kpop company scouts are some of the most insane at finding talent. those niggas are definitely insanely fucking sketchy but have an insane talent
#claude care to discuss the ethics about liking armpits
lmao anon it's not that deep. people got different preferences, armpit fetish is pretty tame in the grand scheme of things. as long as you're not being weird about it irl you're fine. kpop idols got other things to worry about than your armpit appreciation
