The method Taeyeon chose today to make herself easily identifiable by fans

 

Very big beanie


and pink pants


The resultㅋㅋㅋㅋ


I was like"Yeah, I'll wear a big hat for the ending today so you guys can find me easily,"  But if everyone wears hats, how am I supposed to stand out? So I chose to wear a big one.



-Looks so good and it's cute as wellㅠ

-Wow, a genius idol is indeed different.

-Seriously, she can be seen right awayㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㄱㅇㅇㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Isn't she incredibly cute?ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Insanely cuteㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ Kim Taeyeon, how long are you going to be cuteㅠㅠㅠ

-Cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋAh, so cute.

-What is that, attached to the beanie?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Ah, really cute. Said she's wearing a big oneㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

The type of concert that is honestly quite challenging...





Standing

The sequence before the concert which at least lasts for about an hour makes you exhausted already + standing for two hours during the performance is really tough regardless of how enjoyable it might be..

Moreover, there's often stress from issues like height differences, clothing, baggage, and personal space...

theqoo

-It's so exhausting that I can't do it anymoreㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm short so I can't see anything ㅠ

-I was lucky to be in the front row, but I felt like I was being squashed for real + I felt frustrated seeing people using my shoulders as a camera stand ^^

-It's hard because I'm short, but if the spacing is maintained well, it's really fun.

-I couldn't do it, even when I was younger...

-It's terrible in the summer.

-It's the worst, seriously.

-It's fun, but damn, it's tough.

-I'll do it once and never againㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I recently went, but as someone who have zero core strength, I wanted to sit down by the end and the next day my whole body was sore and I caught a cold.

-But why do we have to go in an hour early? That's the most difficult part.

-I'm short, so I don't even try

-I'm short, so I absolutely won't go to all-standing concerts... Even in seated ones, my waist hurts...

-I really don't understand why they let people in an hour early. Even if you enter 30 minutes early, there's still plenty of time left???

-It's really tough, but it also leaves a lasting memory. Even though I say I won't go to all-standing concerts again, I'm a forgetful person, so if I get the chance, I'll probably try again.

-It's really tough, but there's definitely fun in it. But waiting from an hour before is something they should really change.

-Even before the show starts, I feel my back hurting... After the show, I thought my back was broken, and on the way walking, I dropped something and had to bend my back, and experienced hellㅠㅠ People with weak backs should not go standing.

-My back and sense of smell are ruined because of this.

Producer of 'Suzume' and 'Your Name' Arrested for Child Pornography Charges

 According to local media sources on the 21st, Koichiro Ito, who worked as a producer on popular films in Japan like "Your Name" and "Suzume" has been arrested for violating child pornography laws. Local reports state that Koichiro Ito was apprehended after police investigating another case of child prostitution discovered evidence of his involvement. It is reported that Koichiro Ito admitted to most of the charges, but stated that he couldn't recall the specific victims due to having similar conversations with other women. 

Note: Not the director, but the producer!

theqoo

-Not surprised

-But for some reason, I'm not very surprised

-Wow, I'm really not surprised at all

-Why am I not surprised..

-It's really not surprising at all

-Didn't that director have some kind of history before this?

-I found "Your Name" uncomfortable to watch, so I didn't watch "Suzume".

-Spoiler alert. That director's movies always include uncomfortable elements. For example: he male lead is in his mid-twenties and the female lead is a high school student, but the male lead is infatuated with her, trying to save the world. Even when the male lead is possessed by a child's spirit, the female lead sits on his lap without any concern, the chair reacts or doesn't react, and they even kiss the chair, and so on.

-I don't watch that director's films
ㄴIt's not Shinkai Makoto, it's a producer named Ito Koichiro. There seem to be some who confuse them.. Of course, even if it was the director who got caught, it wouldn't be surprising.

-I watched "Your Name" in the theater, but I felt disgusting after watching it, so I didn't even bother with "Suzume".

-No wonder why his works were disgusting.

What I felt after dating a lot of guys

 1. Men are all like children. Their mindset itself is not as complex and diverse as women's, but rather extremely simple. They can't think broadly and tend to focus only on the immediate situation and their own emotions. Especially when their pride is touched, even guys who are nobodies get all worked up and throw a fitㅋㅋㅋㅋ I seriously think it's nonsense to say that men are logical and women are emotional. Women are much more logical, thoughtful, and broad-minded~

2. Mentally, men are at least 2 to 4 years younger. I've met several younger guys, and I really feel that way. For example, if I meet a guy who is 1 year younger than me, his level of thinking is like having a younger sister who is actually 3 or 4 years younger than me. Conversely, if I meet someone who is 2 or 3 years older, their thinking level is almost similar to mine.

3. They're slaves to their desires. They're desperate to make progress, but they lack the skills and have no idea how to treat women; they're just slaves to their instincts. Once they get past kissing, they're eager to go further every time they meet, it's not just one or two guys who have experienced this. Do they even have sexual knowledge? They don't know anything, they're just trying to satisfy themselvesㅋㅋㅋㅋ That's the most disgusting part.

After dating more than 10 boyfriends, I've come to the conclusion that all men are pretty much the same. Honestly, after feeling skeptical once, I don't feel excited or happy no matter who I meet, and even if someone says they like me, I think, "You're probably the same as everyone else." After exchanging a few words with a guy I just met, I can tell what kind of person he is. Just think about it, your crush, someone you're dating, a boyfriend, they're all probably the sameㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ


[+401][-149]

1. [+299][-27]  It doesn't seem true that men are more rational than women. There are plenty of men who are swayed by their emotions.

2. [+282][-14] Agreeㅋㅋㅋ "Wow, how did you do that? Amazing!" If you react like this, they really love it. Seriously, it's no different from raising a young son...

3. [+168][-64] It's a scientifically proven fact that women are superior, more rational, and more logical than men. So, women should actively participate in the nation's key industries such as construction, shipbuilding, semiconductors, petrochemicals, space, aerospace, defense, automobiles, and electronics to show that they are superior to men and that Korean men are useless!!

4. [+147][-23] This is seriously 99.9% accurateㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+136][-140] Writing such posts and feeling "women are superior to men" while trying to boost your self-esteem seems a bit pitiful... I wonder if you've ever experienced a proper relationship.

6. [+110][-137] The time when men are the most beneficial to women is when they are slaves to their desires. In fact, if they weren't slaves to their desires, men would just build houses, create things, and ignore relatively physically weaker women, considering them useless. However, because of desires, women also live along with men in the infrastructure they've built at great risk. So, as they get older, the situation reverses.

7. [+45][-3] I can relate, men are not rational.

8. [+45][-56] You say you hate Korean men to death, yet you are the one who analyze and desire more than anyone else.

9. [+41][-28] I'm really sorry, but your level is obvious.

10. [+33][-16] Maybe it's just because you've only dated trashy men?

The most influential fancam in South Korea

 

theqoo

-This legendary fancam taught me that someone's life could completely change with just one fancam.

-Seriously, that fancam was a bomb

-Even now, it's a legend. She's pretty and does well, plus she interacts with fans from time to time, which is nice.

-Wait, was that really 10 years ago?

-Personally, I think this was the beginning of what we now know as fancams. Fancams existed before, but this was a widely recognized event that made them popular. And then, because of Produce series, it became a necessary element.

-Wow, I also came in thinking about this haha, just the epitome of fancams.

-Even back then, I knew about it even when I wasn't interested in idols.

-I've been listening to "Up & Down" lately. It's amazing to think that video is from 10 years ago.

-Wow, really? 10 years ago, unbelievable...

-"Up & Down" is what made people realize what fancams are.

-Real life turning point.

-But seriously, even after a few years, it's still amazing...

-This was the one that made Hani famous, right? 

-Hani really should be thankful to this fan for her whole life...

-For real, this fan saved her groupㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-How does it feel to change someone's life?

-Wow, it's fascinating. I came in thinking about this video.

-This is seriously amazing.

-I want to go back to those daysㅜㅜ

The debate over LE SSERAFIM's reference begins to gain significant attention even among international fans.

Personally, I thought LE SSERAFIM's "Smart" resembled Doja Cat's "Woman," but now it's being compared to Tyla's "Water." 


I don't think LE SSERAFIM's "Smart" sounds like Tyla's "Water," but if someone were to say it resembles Doja Cat's "Woman," perhaps in a piano version, I could see that. I came across a tweet saying, "Olivia, Doja Cat, SZA, Tyla, Taylor Swift, all artists on the current sales line, influenced by sounds from all of them, right in the middle of the trend."

Comments suggesting that "Smart" combines elements of Doja Cat's "Woman" and Tyla's "Water" have received thousands of likes on platforms like TikTok and Twitter.

It's more direct and critical compared to when Rosalía was in the spotlight. Especially since overseas K-pop fans are very sensitive to issues related to Black artists in rap, more critical opinions tend to emerge. 


Meanwhile, Tyla posted this tweet, and if you look at the quote, it seems like she's seen all the references to LE SSERAFIM and is speculating. 

theqoo

-They're always caught up in controversies.

-Tyla must have seen it, right?

-LE SSERAFIM's Smart really reminds me of Tyla's Water.

-It's not just once or twice; why does this keep happening even though they're not rookies anymore?

-Because they keep doing this, it gets attention...

-Isn't it strange that a major label is doing this?

-Thanks to them, I've discovered some good pop songs.

-They have the ability to buy good songs, so why...

-They should be more careful, seriously.

-If I were a fan of the mentioned artist, I'd be furious.

-I liked "Water" so when I listened to "Smart," I immediately thought of "Water"

-Are references to Black culture more sensitive due to racial discrimination or cultural appropriation?

-Again?

-It did feel similar, but since they didn't use more than a few words, it's not outright plagiarism...

-How does this keep happening every time...

-Why is there so much noise every time a song comes out? Instead of turning a blind eye, the agency should carefully examine why these discussions keep happening... They have good skills and work hard, so please, let's do better.

theqoo

-It was such a waste to only focus on acting; she is such a talented K-pop star. Can't wait to see her on stage!

-I'm really tearing up.
