It seems that those born in '98 have lived through every iconic era of idol groups, making it a "golden era" for them

 I started my idol fandom journey with TVXQ and SS501, and then experienced the eras of SHINee, BEAST, INFINITE, BTOB, TEEN TOP, B.A.P, and many others. I also went through the era when EXO unified fandoms during my 9th grade and experienced the times of EXO, BTS, and SEVENTEEN in high school. It truly feels like a 'golden era'. Those born in '98 have been blessed to experience from TVXQ to Wanna One

-That's me!! I've experienced all of thatㅎㅋㅎㅋ

-Oh, I'm '98 too, so trueㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Just curious, for those born in '98, who was the most popular male idol among girls when you were in elementary school?

-Born in '97, I've been a fan since the second generation up to the current fifth generation.

-That's me!!!! I started with TVXQ and SHINee, and I'm still a fan of SHINee now.

-I experienced all of that during that time, it was so much funㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Born in '99, I can relate. From TVXQ,  Big Bang, SHINee to BEAST, INFINITE, TEEN TOP, B1A4 during my elementary and middle school days.

-I'm '98 and started with DBSK and have been into K-pop ever sinceㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-It's a pity that I was only in middle school during Produce 101 Season 2ㅜ

-Born in '97, I agree. But these days, the generation of idols changes so quickly that everyone probably thinks they've experienced all of itㅋㅋㅋ

-Exactly, there was such a variety of idol fansㅋㅋㅋ I had friends who were fans of Shinhwa, DBSK, and even BTS.

-I was so happy during my school days.

-I started with Big Bang, Girls' Generation, and Wonder Girls in 2008~2009.

-I was born in '97, but I can't get past the second to fifth generationsㅋㅋ

-He gives off a Wonbin vibe.

-Seriously good-looking.

-When you say it, he really gives off an Eunseok vibeㅋㅋㅋㅋ I don't mean they look alike, but maybe they have similar facial features?

-I didn't think much about it before, but in this picture with the beanie and long hair, he really does give off a RIIZE vibeㅋㅋㅋ He's always been handsome.

-He's handsome.

-Don't you think he looks like Super Junior's Siwon?

Youngji received criticism for posting a screenshot of text from Dokyeom she received?

 

"Youngji-ya, let's receive many blessings in the new year! You've worked so hard this past year~ It must have been a valuable year for you. I'll always be cheering you on, so I hope you soar even higher in 2024 :) Take good care of your health and eat well!"

-Youngji suddenly posted an apology letter... Wonder what happened...

-I don't see any mistake... Why apologize...?

-Did the foreigners make a fuss?

-What's there to apologize for?

-What made Seventeen fans uncomfortable?

-All the fans liked it and found it cute. Who and what made it uncomfortable?

-Oh, I'm a Carat, and I found it cute tooㅠㅠㅠㅠㅜㅜㅜㅜ Yeongji, there's nothing wrong with youㅜㅜㅜㅜ

-???? I'm confused.

-Who? I'm genuinely curious, not trying to start a fight.

-I just thought that some overly sensitive people might have overreacted when they saw that tweet.

-Isn't it common to send such messages for the New Year's greetings?

-Again, these people? I don't want to be grouped with them under the term "fandom."

-? It was just cute~ That's all.

-I was browsing Twitter and suddenly saw an apology post... I was so surprised... I wish Youngji didn't take it to heart.

-Ugh, why are people making a fuss over this? My friends around me just said our idol is sweet and cute and moved on. There are some weird people causing trouble.

instiz

-What's a "bonsang" ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Seriously

-I came in wondering how bad it could be, but it's really the worst of the worst.
Seriously, "bonsang"? I thought it was a song title from "Jebewon"? And in the midst of this, "gb1".. it's just two alphabets and a number, how did they get it wrong?

-I'm going crazyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅠㅠㅠ

-What is thisㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-What's a Bonsang? This is insane..

-Only 8 songs in the regular album?

-With just these songs, how did they manage their tours? Even if they have been earning well so far, what about the future? They can't keep reusing the same setlist, right?

-Is it because of Teddy's exclusive producing, or is it YG Entertainment's strategy? This is quite extreme.

-There are too few songs, but the tour was a success.

-With solos, they have enough songs.

-How do they decide the tour setlist??? Always the same songs?

-During the tour, they probably perform many cover songs.

-They released about 30 songs in 7 years. If you average it out, they released one album with 10 songs every 2.5 years. Still, it's limited, but maintaining their status with that number of songs is impressive.

-YG really knows how to maximize their value, huh? Releasing songs over 7 years and still touring.

-Their image isn't overly exploited, which seems good.

-They even included almost half of the singles they previously released in that first full-length album.

-When BIGBANG started, their mini-albums had 6-7 songs, which means half of a full-length album, right? ㅎㅎㅎ But now, with 8 songs, it's considered a full-length album.

-Why are people upset about BLACKPINK releasing fewer albums?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's not that fans are disappointed or that they're not fans; it's just people who aren't fans are getting worked up. Why is that?ㅋㅋ

-Why are so many people upset?
