Hey guys ^.^ ,

I just really wanted to write this to kind of express my opinion on a subject and what I hate the most. I absolutely hate when people impose their opinions on others. 

There's enough ignorance in this world but sometimes people just take it to a whole new level. 

If you like a type of music, that's good for you, but not everybody is going to agree with you, that's why there are different genres of music. Only because you think a type of music is ''Trashy'' just because you dont like it, doesnt make the whole world must think so too. Only because YOU think its trashy doesnt mean it truly is, that is your opinion. People are entitled to their own opinions and they can like whatever they want, so dont try to impose your belief on others. If you dont like a type of music, keep it to yourself and dont judge others for liking that specific type of music. Just like some people might think your music is bad, doesnt mean it truly is. 

If I like kpop, dont judge me for it. I may have a story behind why I like it. And ill tell you why I do right now, and this is one of the reasons why I hate when people judge me for liking kpop, and that it's stupid because I dont understand what they're saying.

Here's my story: 

I moved around the world many times in my life. From a continent to another continent, from provinces to provinces, neighborhoods to neighborhoods. I've lived in many places, and Im not going to complain, because it taught me a lot about life, about different cultures, and I got many opportunities  that nobody else got. I got to see different parts of the world, which made me the person I am today. A year or two ago, I moved to a new city. Previously, I was living in this province for almost 7 years, so I made many friends and grew up with them. We had plans to graduate together, to go to the same college and share an apartment. We had a bunch of plans. And suddenly, all those plans vanished when it was announced to me that I had to move once again, and leave all those friends behind; Friends I had memories with. Of course, I was devastated, and I was depressed for a couple of weeks after moving to the new city. I remember crying everyday at night alone, missing my friends, and because I had nobody at my side at the time. Of course, family is most important, but I couldnt tell them everything. They would feel so guilty knowing how sad I was.Luckily, my childhood friend had moved to this city a few years ago, so I was able to reconcile with them. Which was great, because they made my move so much easier for me, and made me remember the good memories I still had left. I guess they were the only thing keeping me sane. One day, I went to their house, and met one of their friends, who loved kpop, and still does. She introduced me to ''Replay'' by SHINee. Im not gonna lie, my first reactions were ''Ew why do you like this, you can't even understand them''... But then I found myself humming the song all the time, downloading all their songs, and by the time I knew it, I was obsessed. Of course, this was over the summer. Kpop helped me stop thinking about the bad things, and just focus on the new things. It helped me with the move, and I got more comfortable. It was the thing that kept me still moving foward, it kept me happy, and I can't even explain. I learned new things, and I knew that kpop would never leave me, and I would never leave kpop. It was something that was guaranteed that I couldn't move away from. Obviously, I had to go to a new school and meet new people. I cant even describe how ignorant people are there, they made fun of me for my music. But I couldnt care less, because they're all just people with no lives that have nothing better to do than to torment me. I just let it go, and even if I did cry a lot because of a lot of people, and I still do, kpop was always there to cheer me up and bring a smile to my face when nobody else could.

This might seem ridiculous to some people, but it helped me a lot, in ways nobody could imagine. And kpop still does.

So this is why I hate when people say kpop is stupid, or it has no meaning. You dont know the connections I have, and I will not judge you for the music you listen to, so please dont judge mine.

I just honestly hate when people talk about other groups or genres of music because they dont like it. That's great, but keep it to yourself. It may seem stupid for you, but it could be the thing that is holding a person together. 

So the message I'm trying to send here, is to think before you judge another person's music. It may seem like nothing to you, but it hurts other people's feelings when you do. So please just watch what you say, because not everybody has to think the same way as you.
