Who I was in 2016 to 2018 me [Slight rant? I’m half Puerto Rican so I can talk honey~]

Okay, so before was a note to asshat fans. This is about who I used to be nd who I am now after re educating myself to blossom into a better human and fan.

To be honest I used to one of those people who hated on groups I didn’t like.

Gfriend and TWICE especially.

Okay, I made a blogpost about this and apparently I got like, what do you call it, flagged or something? I had so many Buddies and ONCES down my neck and I was like, chill out man it was my opinion. But I realised that some people need to keep their mouths to themselves and respect other people. So I deleted. I made another blogpost and people from the other were saying like, “oh she deleted it because she didn’t want her account to be taken down” ??? I wasn’t even aware that there someone said something I had taken it down because I felt that I said something I shouldn’t have and was genuinely sorry about it.

so I hated these two groups the most.

GFriend because their title songs (other than Summer Rain and Fingertip) all sound the same. Same piano like intro, either chorus or solo with a dance sequence, Eunha or Yerin sing the , then dance break, then Yuju hits a high note and poor Mama long legs Sowon gets the crumbs (god I love her she’s so pretty~ And Umji is ugh baby princess~) 

I realised, the girls don’t make the music and the dance so it’s not their fault. These are human girls who had a really rough start and was given a bad name because they were talented and people were jealous. These girls have fallen and I used to be like, “your dance isn’t even hard to do.” These girls not have been given the chance to practice on the stage beforehand. They’re slipping and sliding maybe because the floors were and their shoes weren’t made for dancing on that type of stage. Who am I to judge them based off of that? And tbh I was a bit jealous of Yuju because I would never be as pretty and as talented as she was. So I was a petty little wagon and hated her for it. 

I still To this day do not like listening to their title songs one after the other because they still sound the same to me the sequence still sounds the same but I love their songs now and their dances are so good and they’re so stable on stage and they deserved all those awards. When I saw these poor things faint on stage and seeing them being forcibly thrown around I was horrified. 

I am in no way a buddy because they’re another fandom that slightly scares me and I can’t fully get into music that sounds the same *looks at KARD* but by themselves it’s really good, they’re really talented and I’m so glad that they got the recognition they deserved... maybe just give them better lyric distribution and a ING RAP SO MAMA LONG LEGS SOWON CAN STRUT HER STUFF!

I felt that Twice wasn’t talented until I decided to sit down and watch Sixteen. These girls are so talented and their music does nothing for them. I want something jazzy and bluesy for Jihyo with mixed alto chest voice, more lines for Jeongyeon that should belong to Jeongyeon as a lead vocalist but because of the cute themes she gets (she’s my bias kekeke). 

I used to be, “JYP doesn’t hire talent because he himself doesn’t know what talent is plus he only cares about himself hence why 90% of JYP songs has his name in it”.... I mean, I still feel the same that he is super conceited enough to either put himself into the music video or his name on it, lik dude we know it’s you, can we enjoy the ing song without your breathy voice going “jyp” or you loudly going “JYP....” Then you heat like, 

“JYP and the Wonder Girls” of “JYP introduces Made in Asia, Miss A.” “I.O.I and JYP” the list could go on!

 

okay, okay, calm down mida, this isn’t about him it’s about how you’ve changed into a true Kpop fan and how respectable you are towards good artists. 

 

Okay, TWICE. They’re very talented their songs don’t match, but I love their song Love Line written by Jeongyeon, it’s so nice and it suits them. So this will be my personal opinion on each of them as with GFriend it wasn’t individual talent as much as the song itself that bothered me. Gonna be colour coded for the names so you know when the next one starts.

I feel like Jihyo is given too much to chew and she can never fully deliver. For someone who trained for 10 years when I heard her debut I was enraged. Who the hell was training her that she sounded like she was screaming those high notes? She should have tried mixing them or should not have been given those notes. Someone being trained for 10 years I was expecting a vocal range like Taeyeons or something. Like she doesn’t sound like someone who trained for 10 years. Chen from Exo sounds like he was but he was only a trainee for 6 months. 

To this day I want to punch the vocal coach because her stable range isn’t that high and if she isn’t careful she could either bust her voice or become the next Onew... sorry Chicken bae but you singing live *flashback to his cracks* She is super talented and when she sang All About That Bass by Meghan Trainor I was like, this is literally her range and her style. In Heartshaker she almost doesn’t sound like herself once she has to go higher than the “oh yeah~” note at the for the adlibs. 

It breaks my heart because so much talent is being wasted on cute themes.

Tzuyu is becoming a queen like her vocals are getting better and better with every comeback. She was very underrated in the show and I really believed in her while watching even though I was far behind. I used to think she was nothing but a pretty girl who only got chosen because she was pretty. Sure she wasn’t the best dancer, not a very good vocalist, and struggled with certain things, but her drive and passion since the beginning made it worthwhile~ 

Nayeon to me is okay but she screamed typical girly Kpop, her voice didn’t scream lead vocalist but her charisma was to me back then, was what got her where she is not her talent. 

Now im nicer and I think she is very talented, but to be honest a part of me still doesn’t understand but I shouldn’t judge because she’s worked so hard and so long for it that she deserves it no matter what and im proud that she’s happy and that all her hard work has paid off~ But after hearing her do Chaeyoungs rap in Likey I’m like, damn girl you should be a rapper not a singer~ honey yo vocals are meant fo speed not acrobatics yous a runner not a gymnast~

I felt so bad for Sana because the entire time people almost kept looking down on her, but to me she was the one with the most potential and when she lectured Dahyun and I think Minyoung or someone else for not showing up to the rehearsal I was living! Like, YASS SANA YOU TELL THEM HOW YOU FEEL, TELL THEM WHAT THEYVE DONE!

Shes like the wild card of TWICE and I love it. She goes from cute to y in a drop of a hat and I feel that in a cute group for potential concept changes that would be amazing! 

Momo when I saw her do the solo dance in their dance break in OOH AHH I was like, “YOOOOOO THIS BLONDE IS SLAYING MEEEEE” But I really didn’t like her voice in it. The first part was fine but then when she had to sing higher it was too out of her range and she was practically whispering. The dance break really was the only saving grace for her for me at the time. Then I found out she got eliminated early on and I was like, “she got eliminated and she still got in? TF WAS THE POINT IN THE SHOW IF YOU ARE DEADASS GONNA CHOOSE ANYWAYS?!” 

Now after watching I do see why he decided to bring her back which was actually done by vote not he himself. Also her dancing was really good, not as good as everyone was screaming about, but it was what screamed Main Dancer and what the group needed. Which was as of course wasted other than Ooh Ahh and Touchdown and maybe one or two other songs. She’s so talented and her rapping is on point and she needs to have more rap.

Mina, Mina, Mina. She’s so sweet and such a flower girl, they literally almost don’t know what to do with her. I got so upset when JYP told her that she had a face too much like a ballerina. The typical you know, the I smile because that’s what we do on stage. Her face dropped and I’m like NO WE MUST PROTECC THE BEAUTY! Her vocals weren’t that great nor that strong but it was so pretty. I feel like they need a dance more like WJSN Secret where Mina can do a bit of ballet in the start or like April April Song where the dance break is a bit of ballet so our Mina can show off.

I never thought bad of her as much as she looked out of placed and slightly bewildered and almost questioning why she was there. 

Dahyun! The... the member I never paid attention to.... 😥😥😥😥 I felt so bad because I just never found her interesting enough to pay attention to. Her rap was okay in Ooh Aah other than it being a little fast but to me it wasn’t really a rap as much as it was just talking with slight emphasis on the last words.

Watching the show I just sat there like, giiiiiiirl why couldn’t you be this interesting all the damn time? Like, her mix of being a badass and being cute was so good and I felt so bad for not noticing her sooner. I wish that they could do a bit more for her in the songs.

Chaeyoung is Bias 2. I thought she was super edgy with the short brown hair and the beauty mark and her cold stare. Never had anything bad to say about her other then why isn’t there anything badass for someone like her and Jeongyeon and Momo! ing Sixteen with You Got Me Going Crazy! Holy dropped and ovaries exploded! I was like yep, knew I made the right choice from the start~

Jeongyeon~ ahhh. Like the term Gayhee for Jaehee from Mystic Messenger I am gay for this girl. The tomyish look is something I like in a girl since I’m into all genders as a pan ual. Androgynous people are already on my Bias list because ugh people who can be more just I can’t I love them. That one phrase in Ooh Aah got me aching for me. Cheer Up I was like, YAS GIRL GET THOSE TWO LINES AND HALF A CHORUS! She to me could have been the second Main Vocalist or was the better one than Nayeon. 

I was so angry that she is so talented and it’s being wasted. She, Nayeon and Jihyo tried debuting so many times and I felt so bad for them. But how could you do someone so dirty like that JYP like cmon? Seeing Sixteen only made me feel this more. 

 

Ive learnt from watching Sixteen that these coaches and judges are s and don’t seem to listen to reason that isn’t their own beliefs. Like when Sana and Tzuyu were waiting for Dahyun and the other girl and Dahyun had to go to the hospital for her eye and WAS LITERALLY WEARING AN EYEPATCH WHEN WHATS HER FACE WAS SCREAMING AT THEM. FIGHT ME! 

Ive learnt to not judge them as they’ve all worked hard. And I realised it for the other groups I didn’t really like that much that they’ve all had to go through almost similar things. As a trainee you are friends but you’re also fighting to be the top so you can debut. Yoseob got kicked out of JYP because he didn’t do well enough in evaluations. 

I started to hold so much more respect for these idols and swore from then on that no matter what they all deserve views and love. So now what I do is I watch as many videos that come out as possible whether they are well known or not because they need it. They need someone to watch and believe in them. I make sure to comment on their videos and to share them with my friends. I don’t buy their songs tho if I don’t like it tho, I mean don’t knock it til you try it but don’t force yourself.

So what I’m saying is, I’ve changed myself to just not be an or to extent, shut the up about it and don’t assume

 

TO ASSUME IS TO MAKE AN OUT OF U AND ME.

 

Dont judge because you don’t know what they’ve been through. Respect their personal space and their talents even if they aren’t that good. They’ve worked so hard for this and they deserve the world unless they’ve done bad things *cough* KANGIN *hack* in which case them.

Please try and just don’t be an . Remember that before they were idols they were just like us and they gave away their lives to try and pursue their dreams that their souls in contracts that render them puppets to the companies every beck and call.

Support as much as you can even if you don’t like them because no one should ever say another person shouldn’t succeed.

 

thats how I’ve changed and I hope by the end of this year I will become an even better person and fan. 

 

This is all based off of personal feelings and opinions so if it bothers you then please tell me and don’t report or something dumb. We all have our opinions and I’ve regret the things I’ve said in the past and I’m really trying to change. I love GFriends songs and I am sort of a ONCE now? So I hope this will maybe put how I used to see things compared to now into perspective~

And yes I have many feelings towards JYP.
