G-IDLE's stage names before they debuted

 The potential group names:

Anicolor

Soyeon = Yellow Fish

Minnie = Pink Mouse

Miyeon = Green Crocodile or Green Tuna

Yuqi = Blue Sky

Shuhua = White Butterfly

There were two potential names before they debuted. The first one was Purple Rose and the other one was Anicolor. Each member was assigned stage names. Miyeon's was Green Crocodile (or Green Tuna), Minnie's was Pink Mouse, Soyeon's was Yellow Fish, Yuqi's was Blue Sky, and Shuhua's was White Butterfly. They said there were even worse names that made Minnie cry when she first heard it. She even fought with the director of the company.

instiz

-The group's name wasn't that bad but the stage names were shocking...

-I can't believe she almost debuted as Green Tunaㅠㅠ

-What's with Green Tunaㅋㅋㅋㅋ By the way, they were all named after animals but why was Yuqi named Sky?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-If I were in their shoes, I'd probably cry too...ㅜㅜㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Anicolor was actually a decent group name. But aren't they too cruel for almost giving them those stage names?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Shuhua suited the name 'White Butterfly', though...

-Yellow Fish was really cruel...ㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-When they first debuted, I honestly thought their group's name was really bad. Now that I learned about this, G-IDLE doesn't sound like a bad name at all...^^

-I guess Cube still hasn't changed at all...

-But they somehow suit those stage names really well...

-Mouse...?

-Who wouldn't cry if they were given that kind of stage nameㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Imagine saying 'Hello, I'm Green Tuna from Anicolor~'

-Are you being for real right now...?

-Is Cube out of their mind?

Why do you hate Haewon?

 I just don't f*cking understand. I'm asking because I see a lot of hate posts about her here.
She's a great singer and more than that, she's just as great as the main dancer. 
She also has a great variety show skill, amazing leadership, and she's freaking pretty.
What is it about her that you hate that much?

[+131][-102]

1. [+147][-42] It's okay. If a celebrity gets a lot of hate posts on this site, it means that they're popular. All of my friends like Haewon. 

2. [+112][-0] They just want to vent their anger. I like Oh Haewon because she seems to be a hard-worker but strangely, she gets a lot of hate on this site. That's what makes me want to support her even more.

3. [+82][-2] People on this site hate her because she's famous. She's getting positive reactions on other online communities besides Pann. She's also one of the top popular members in the fandom. 

4. [+16][-2] She only gets hate on this site. All of my friends like her because she's beautiful and funny. 

5. [+15][-0] Pann users seem to really hate idols who are funny, have great variety show skill, and either great dancers or singersㅋㅋㅋ I don't understand them either.

"Do you have the time in your schedule?" Drama production teams are after Jang Wonyoung

A lot of drama scripts are aiming for Jang Wonyoung right now. Though she has no experience in acting, production teams are risking to cast Jang Wonyoung. 

A production team crew said, "Jang Wonyoung is now the model of the telecommunication company that made Seolhyun become an icon. It's enough to show that Jang Wonyoung has the potential to become a big star and issue. You can quickly become a hot topic just by recruiting Jang Wonyoung." 

He revealed, "A lot of script-writers use Jang Wonyoung as their inspiration to write scripts." However, it will be difficult to see Jang Wonyoung star on either big or small screens because her schedule is packed with IVE's promotions, filming various CFs, etc."

Another crew added, "As overseas activities, which previously stopped due to the pandemic, resume now, I think it will be difficult to see Jang Wonyoung promoting outside of IVE. Especially for her to star in dramas since that requires her to film for at least a few months. That's almost impossible."

He continued, "However, Jang Wonyoung is still the no. 1 celebrity that a lot of script-writers and directors want to cast."

theqoo

-I think it's too early for her to debut as an actress, but I do hope she'll consider thatㅠㅠ She's really charming and good with her facial expressions, so I'm looking forward to it

-Wonyoung looks really gorgeous in Hanbok, I personally hope she'll play the role of a princess in a historical dramaㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I can't wait for the day Wonyoung debut as an actress. I'm rooting for anything she does!!

-I'm willing to wait for 10 years to see Annyeongz debut as actresses... Please take the opportunity if you have the chanceㅠㅠ

-I want to see her star in a romance-comedy drama...

-Why am I already looking forward to this? I hope she'll consider becoming an actressㅋㅋ

-I think Wonyoung will do great in anything she does...

-I really want to see her star in a drama, but I think it'll be difficult for now because she's really busyㅠㅠ

-I'm sure she'd be a great actress...

-She has every right to choose to become an actress or not. But I personally would really love to see her as an actressㅎㅎ

-I hope she'll star in dramas like Dream High...

My mom tore and destroyed all of my things just because I went to Itaewon

 

I experienced the same thing when I was in my 10s. Since then, it became a wound that never completely healed until this second. 

 That was the point I started to see my parents as enemies. If you are a parent, please do not do things like this. 

It seems like rather than being thankful that her daughter returned home safely, she chose to vent her anger because her daughter made her worried. That is f*cking selfish. 


Can you understand her mother?

+For your information, the OP is not underage. She's a college student. 

theqoo

-I totally understand if she was worried for her daughter and it was really upsetting for her. But tearing up and destroying all the things that her daughter has collected over the years will only make her daughter hate her. 

-The mom did a good thing

-Tearing up and destroying things like this is violence. It will leave a f*cking huge shock to her daughter. I can totally understand that she was worried, but this will become a core memory for her daughter. My parents threw out my favorite sketchbook and I still remember that even though years have passed. I can't imagine how bad is it for the OP since those things must've been really precious for her.

-If she was worried, she should've said it instead of expressing it violently like that. It's not like destroying things could calm her down. It only makes the relationship between her and her daughter go worse.

-Why did she destroy that?? She should've hugged her daughter and thanked her for coming back home safely.

-That will become a core memory for her daughter...

-Is going to Itaewon a f*cking crime??

-Does worrying about her daughter have anything to do with destroying those slogans?? I just don't understand it. What do you usually destroy when you're worried about someone?

-If her daughter ended up injured and was at the hospital, she probably would've become angry and caused a fuss at the hospital. I have experienced it. 

-I can totally understand how her mother feels, it's just that she expressed it in the wrong way...

-If you're on the mother's side, you really shouldn't have kids...

-I experienced a similar thing when I was younger. That's the reason why I grew up without sharing my worries and concerns with them. Not to mention that this is really upsetting. 

-I heard that only Asian mothers do this... This is violence

Kim Junsu and other idols' fanclub&kit fees

 Idol fans can only join the official fan clubs (Ace, memberships, etc) after paying the membership fee.

The benefits of memberships include: Official fan meetings, pre-order concert tickets, participate in open music show broadcasts, exclusive content, etc

Most membership fees cost 30,000 KRW. They will also receive a separate fan club kit after signing up. 

But of course, the memberships benefits and fan club kits vary for each singer

Aespa: 35,000 KRW
(All SM idols have the same membership fees. They used to have a welcome kit for new members, but now they just give out a 10,000KRW discount coupons)

Stray Kids: 35,000 KRW (Including the kit)

ITZY: 35,000 KRW (Including the kit)

IVE: 30,000 KRW

The Boyz: 31,000 KRW

Highlight: 31,000 KRW (Including the kit)

Just like other companies that only have one artist, some people think the production fee for their kits is higher because it's only produced in a small amount. This company was created by the members and they're also the only artists in the company, so I'm putting them on this list.

The membership fees for most official fan clubs range from 30,000 KRW to 35,000 KRW (I'm too lazy to search for more. Please leave in the comments)

Idols who work with Weverse shop usually sell their memberships and fan kits separately

BTS: 25,000 KRW for membership and 15,000 KRW for the fan kit

 
TXT: 22,000 KRW for membership and 14,000 KRW for the fan kit


 
Seventeen: 22,000 KRW for membership and 15,000 KRW for the fan kit

Enhypen: 22,000 KRW for the membership and 15,000 KRW for the fan kit

Treasure: 22,000 KRW for the membership and 15,000 KRW for the fan kit

Sunmi: 22,000 KRW for the membership and 14,000 KRW for the fan kit


VERIVERY: 22,000 KRW for the membership and 15,000 KRW for the fan kit

STAYC: 25,000 KRW for the membership and 16,000 KRW for the fan kit

The membership fee + fan kits in Weverse shop range from 36,000 KRW to 40,000 KRW. It's averagely 5,000 KRW more expensive (I may be wrong because I didn't search all of the artists)

Kim Junsu also sells the membership and fan kits separately, but... 

Kim Junsu: 33,000 KRW for the membership and 88,000 KRW for the fan kit.

However, Kim Junsu's fan kit already includes the light stick (This doesn't mean he forces his fans to buy the whole fan kit just for the light stick. I don't know if you can buy the fan kit without the light stick, though)

Kim Junsu still hasn't sold his light stick separately, so I have no idea how much it costs.

So what?

Okay, let's search for other artists' light sticks

NCT: 38,000 KRW

EXO: 39,000 KRW
(Most of other SM idols' light stick is 38,000 KRW to 39,000 KRW. WayV's is 41,000 KRW)

Highlight: 42,000 KRW

TXT: 39,000 KRW

Seventeen: 39,000 KRW

Enhypen: 39,000 KRW

Treasure: 39,000 KRW

There are no pictures but after searching in WITHMUU, I found that

The Boyz, Astro, Weki Meki: 35,000 KRW
SF9: 37,000 KRW
Stray Kids: 38,000 KRW
Victon: 42,000 KRW
LOONA, StayC: 43,000 KRW

The light stick price ranges from 35,000 KRW up to 43,000 KRW

If you buy the membership + fan kit + light stick
Price for other idols: 70,000 KRW to 80,000 KRW
Kim Junsu: 121,000 KRW 

theqoo

-It's up to his company. His fans have the freedom to not buy it if they don't like the price.

-After this comparison, I have to admit that's really expensive...

-It is indeed expensive, but his fans still buy it anyway. It doesn't matter if the people who aren't going to buy say it's expensive. I'm sure the price will go down if not a lot of fans buy it, though. 

-Seventeen's light stick looks so sparkly and pretty... I looked it up and it looks really beautiful. It steals my attention quickly.

-I don't have any thoughts on buying it but... It's really expensive

-That's really expensive. The difference between his price and other idols' average price is really big.

-So what if it's expensive? You don't have to buy it if you don't want to

-Light sticks prices seem to have gotten higher these days. I bought mine in 2018 for 33,000 KRW. 

-People are allowed to think it's expensive. They also have the freedom to buy it or not.

-It's f*cking expensive, but I'm not surprised^^

-This is really embarrassing. The government should be responsible for this. Can you still call yourself a developed country at this point?

-Kya... Now the whole world knows how incompetent our government is

-Just imagine how great it would've been if the Korean press were the ones who release those critics.

-The worst government ever

-He's only sorry because the international press is reporting this news...

-We can only count on the international press now. The Korean press is long gone.

-Why is the government not taking any responsibility for this? All they do is make excuses. It's frustrating. 

-The international press is speaking our thoughts. Well, probably because that's the truth.

-The international press has already found out about this... F*ck, f*ck, f*ckㅠㅠ I can believe such government exists in the year 2022, f*ck.

-It's really sad to realize that I live in this kind of country...

An actress crying because her co-worker sent her a coffee truck

 She was really touched and cried, then everyone comforted her

theqoo 

-I wonder why she denied the rumors when it's clear that she loves him that much? Is she scared because they got caught? Then why didn't they keep it lowkey?

-I'm not even a fan, but this enrages me. This couple is full of gimmickㅋㅋㅋ

-They really should get married at this point. What are they going to do if they break up?ㅠㅠ

-They look cute together. I hope they'll get married and last forever.

-I'm getting secondhand embarrassment...

-It's funny to imagine her asking someone to film this and then proceed to post this on her account herself...ㅋㅋㅋ

-It's very amazing for her to act this way and then denied all the dating rumors...

-She cried because the coffee truck looked really prettyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Who is she...? Is she getting all this hate because she's dating an idol?

-And yet she still denied the dating rumors...?? I just don't understand

-She was the one who couldn't keep it lowkey and yet she was also the one who denied the dating rumors. She's making the guy look like a complete idiot, it's ridiculous.

-It shocks me to know that she's a '94liner. Her boyfriend is a lot younger than her.

-I don't mind if my idols are in relationships, as long as it's not with someone like her... Oh Gosh

Vietnamese make fun of the Itaewon tragedy as they cosplay for Halloween + The number of likes




instiz

-No need to swear at them. It only shows how ignorant they are. Not only Koreans died in that tragedy, but there were also people from different countries all over the world. On top of that, there was also a Vietnamese victim. They're only bringing embarrassment to themselves. 

-Is this real...? Shocking...

-I'm not even mad... Because all they do in these pictures is show how ignorant they areㅋㅋ

-Why are they doing that? One of the victims was a Vietnamese...

-Not only Koreans died in that tragedy, though?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ They're really thoughtless...

-I see, I see~~ I'm not stopping y'all. Continue doing that~

-Looks like satans can resign now because of them...

-A group of psychopaths...

-That's really mean...

My ex-boyfriend contacted me because I was in Itaewon

 

Hey, are you in an accident?

I don't mean to get back together. I'm just bothered. And also worried.

(Missed call)

Oh Gosh... Looks like you're in an accident...

Rest in peace... I hope you'll be fine there...

OK. I have a girlfriend now and I only contacted you because it bothered me.

Judging by how you declined my phone calls, it looks like you're still alive.

Rocky has already confirmed the rumors ... Why hasn't Park Boyeon said anything after denying the rumors?

 

On October 31st, Park Boyeon's company, Management Koo said, "After checking with the artist, we confirm that Park Boyeon and Rocky are only work colleagues."

Park Boyeon participated in writing the lyrics of Rocky's solo song because she likes writing. She also explained that she was invited to watch Rocky's musical show, "The Three Musketeers" as a co-worker. 

After her denial, it seemed like the dating rumors between Park Boyeon and Rocky were about to end. However, Rocky released a statement that is the total opposite of what Park Boyeon had said, creating an absurd situation. 

On October 31st, Rocky's company, Fantagio said, "Rocky and Park Boyeon have good feelings towards each other. They are currently getting to know each other."

Fantagio also explained, "They met as they worked together in the drama 'Find Me if You Can'. Park Boyeon, who likes to write, naturally participates in Rocky's project and the two of them have gotten closer since. After passing some time as co-workers, the two of them realize that they have good feelings towards each other."

After Rocky released that statement, NewsN tried to contact Park Boyeon's company to confirm the rumors once again. However, they didn't pick up the phone. 

Park Boyeon still hasn't released any statements again on the second day after the rumors first spread. People are wondering whether they're actually dating, but there's no agreement between both parties and the company. Or could it be that Rocky is having an unrequited love, hence the difference in the statement?

theqoo

-Did they release statements before discussing it with each other?

-Unrequited loveㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Anyway, is Rocky the main vocal of the group? Judging by how he stars in musical shows, it seems like he's a really great singer...

-Looks like she had fun dating in private but then changed her mind when she got caught...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It's funny how she has the courage to be obvious about the relationship but has none to confirm the dating rumors?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-They're probably fighting right now...

-Is this some kind of unrequited love or what?ㅋㅋㅋ Do these two companies not contact each other?

-Why didn't you keep it lowkey then?ㅋㅋㅋ Do you think fans wouldn't know about your relationship?ㅋㅋ

-What's going on? A one-sided love??

-Looks like she denied the rumors because it could've affected her career as a rookie actressㅋㅋㅋ I'm pretty sure she knows that well, so why couldn't she keep her relationship lowkey then?

-Is he... getting rejected??

-This is really funny, even though I have no idea who they are...

-Rocky-ya... What are you gonna do now?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Netizens found the man with the rabbit headband "It's not me, I have a proof"

 This guy claims, "My friends and I are being witch-hunted. It's true that I was wearing a rabbit headband and went to Itaewon that day. But the accident happened after my friends and I left Itaewon. I have proof." The earliest report of the accident was at 10:15PM and this guy was already at Itaewon subway station at 09:55PM and arrived at Hapjeong subway station at 10:17PM. He says, "I understand there must be some misunderstandings, but I hope people will stop the witch-hunting." He also says that he will be taking legal action against people who have spread false rumors about him. 

On the 1st, he says, "Netizens say there is a group of 5 to 6 people who started pushing other people. That day, I went to Itaewon with just one friend. It was really crowded there, so we decided to move to Hapjeong station. It's true that I went through the alley, but people were not pushing each other at that time. I feel so wronged. I'm currently on my way to Itaewon subway station to see the CCTV recordings and other evidence that I did not push anyone."


theqoo

-Do you guys seriously think only one or two people there with rabbit headbands? Let's just leave the investigation to the police.

-I heard the perpetrator was wearing a white rabbit headband, not black

-Oh Gosh, it's such a relief that he took the subway...

-It's such a relief that he has proof. I can't imagine what could've happened if he didn't.

-What made these netizens believe that they could catch the actual person? Just wait for the police to do their job

-Do you seriously think out of hundreds of thousands of people, there's only 1 guy who wears a rabbit headband...?

-I knew this would happen...

-I'm sure the police are doing their job, let's just wait quietly...

-I'm sure the police will investigate and find them. Let's not accuse innocent people like this.

-What are these people doing... So ignorant and stupid.

-Why are you wrongfully accusing an innocent person?

Pretending to be an idol's secret girlfriend sounds so f*cking fun

 

Ah... Pretending to be an idol's secret girlfriend sounds so f*cking un

I should go to Treasure's concert and enter the venue 5 minutes after it starts, wearing a minibag while having my face covered.

You should leave quietly before they finish performing their last song. It will look 2x more real if you walk behind security as if you're following them. 

You should also sit on the 2nd floor, holding a flower bouquet instead of a lightstick, and look busy scrolling Instagram.

theqoo

-That's exactly the thing that idols' attention-seeker non-celebrity girlfriends doㅋㅋㅋ It's f*cking funny how fans know really well about thisㅋㅋㅋ

-Holding a flower bouquet and busy scrolling Instagramㅋㅋㅋㅋ They're standing out even f*cking more that way. Anyone can tell they're suspicious and looking for attention

-This is f*cking hilariousㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-You can only do this if you have the 'face and body' for it...

-I have actually seen someone doing these things in a concertㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Even your existence is a secret to the idol himself...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It's a secret, even the idol himself doesn't know that you're his girlfriendㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-What is the flower bouquet for? Are they going to give it to their boyfriends after the concert ends? Or do they receive it from their boyfriends before the concert starts?

-I'd love to participate, but I'd fail because I don't want to miss the concert, not even for 5 minutes.

-I guess this is exactly why I can't date idolsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

-If I did this, I would just be 'a fan who's late to the concert'...

"Ran more than 1km while carrying his daughter" ... Testimony of a father of Itaewon tragedy survivor

 Daughter: Can you hear me?

Father: What is it? Where are you~~ Did something happen?

Daughter: I almost diedㅠㅠ I think I broke my leg. There's a crowd surge in Itaewon. I got stuck below on my way homeㅠ A lot of people died hereㅠㅠ Please help me. I'm scared. 


Jang (62) who lived in Sungnam gets blurry every time he thinks of the night of the 29th when he almost lost his daughter who is in her 20s. 

His daughter was in Itaewon with her friends to celebrate Halloween day when she called. 

His daughter talked with a worried tone, "People besides me are dead." At that moment, Jang doubted his ears and asked for more details. However, he couldn't talk to his daughter for a long time because the phone call kept on disconnecting. After a while, Jang noticed something was wrong as he received texts from his daughter. He quickly caught a taxi and headed to Itaewon police station. 

Jang explains, "I was wondering what happened after my daughter called. Around 11.30PM, I saw the news saying that 50 people are having cardiac arrest in Itaewon. That's when I caught a taxi. The road was blocked due to traffic control when I arrived near Itaewon. So I got off the taxi and ran about 1.5km"

The first thing Jang did when he arrived at the police station was to check the condition of his daughter's body. He says, "There were four people, including my daughter, lying in the police station. Her condition was really bad and she had to be transferred to the hospital quickly. However, there were too many victims and the rescue team prioritize them first. It seemed like it would take three or four hours for them to check my daughter"

He continues, "The casualties were their first priorities. My daughter was in so much pain and cars couldn't pass by that road because the traffic was completely controlled. In the end, I carried her to the nearest area I could catch a taxi. I ran more than 1km while carrying her on my back"

However, even after running for a long time, it wasn't easy for Jang to catch a taxi. Jang tried to get help from any vehicles passing through that road, but it didn't work out. At that time, a woman and a man who appeared to be in their 30s approached Jang and offered to give him a ride to the hospital. 

They took Jang and his daughter in their white BMW to the emergency room in Yeouido St Mary Hospital. 

However, the emergency room was unable to take other patients because it was already full of other victims. The man and woman didn't just leave Jang and his daughter there, they stayed and helped even though they were strangers. After asking where Jang lives, they took Jang and his daughter to the emergency room near their house. 

Jang adds, "The couple helped us to find a wheelchair as we arrived in the hospital. They helped us a lot. It took us about 3 to 4 hours to get into the current hospital. I tried to give them some money to express my gratitude, but they refused to accept and handed it back to me" 

theqoo

-Thank you so much for those people who helped this father and adughter...

-The couple who helped them is really amazing. So is the father who doesn't give up until the very end. It's such a relief. 

-My faith in humanity is restored. That wasn't an easy thing to do. They're really amazing for thatㅠㅠㅠ

-It's such a reliefㅠㅠ The couple who helped this father and daughter will be blesseㅠㅠ

-There are a lot of crazy bastards in this world, but I believe that there are even more kind people here. Let's not lose faith in humanity. 

-I can't imagine how he felt when his daughter told him that people besides her were dying...

-Carrying his daughter and running more than 1km...ㅠㅠㅠ I'm really grateful for the couple who helped themㅠㅠ I'm literally crying right now...

-I wish all the happiness in this world to the couple who helped this father and daughter...

-Thank you so much. You have saved someone's life.

-The father is really amazing. So are the couple who helped him even though they were strangers. They're really amazingㅠㅠ

-I hope this story will spread widely instead of stories about those horrible psychopaths...

-I guess the world is still worth living...
