10 Things my Friends just don’t get about K-Pop/K-Pop fans
This is my first serious post, but I felt like rambling about this since I’ve been doing so many ‘Fangirling about K-Pop around friends’ scenarios _________________________________
10. Why some music videos are so weird
Honestly, I don’t really know how to explain it myself. Some K-Pop stars just like weird or enjoy being random, and I honestly love watching them as long as they’re not disturbing (it’s not a K-Pop song, but PONPONPON scares me)
9. Why the guys wear so much makeup
It makes me so mad when friends say that they look like girls because of all the eyeliner (makes me wanna shove a picture of shirtless Minhyuk from BtoB in their face). Famous guys wear makeup all the time, during movies, music videos, events, etc; Korea just makes the make up more exaggerated. And they also say I only like them with makeup on, but I find them just as cute with out it; though it’s a little strange since they almost always have makeup on around a camera.
8. Why they’re so close; ‘why they act gay around each other’
This one is a little less heard from my friends, but I’ve heard that question a few times. My explanation to them most of the time is that they all love each other; they’re like a second family after all. It’s honestly really really cute when you get used to it because it shows how close they are… But I hate it when they use the word ‘gay’ to describe how they look or act. It’s offensive towards gays and them, because they say it as an insult most of the time, which is NOT okay. Even if one of them was gay, I don’t think they’d go for one of their members. also: OTP/BroTPs
7. Why all our time is taken up by them
There are so many bands out there, and getting to learn them all is really time consuming. I like to have at least a good background knowledge for all the bands that I can, whether they are popular or deserve to be popular. Since a lot of time is spent learning all of this and it’s still fresh on my mind, it all slips out without really thinking about it. Plus, it’s fun to talk about and fangirl about, cause you can’t not fangirl when thinking/talking about them.
6. Why we love them so much
This one’s an obvious one because literally every friend I have has asked me that. There are too many reasons, some have been covered and will be covered in this post. In short, I’m gonna say that they’re just adorkable idiots who love their fans(us) so much, so we need to get them the attention and awards that they deserve.
5. Why it’s so hard for us during comebacks
I can’t be the only one with friends who want to shove me off a bridge during comebacks, right? It can be a really hard time to go through, yet all they do is roll their eyes and tell us to shut up. Sometimes it’d be nice that, even if they don’t understand us, that they’d be a little supportive and deal with our fangirling more around those times. I have friends who go through a hard time when their favorite show airs another episode or finale, and while it’s repetitive and I hear it all day for weeks, I still try and support them, so they should return the favor. =o=
4. Why our phones are full of pictures of them and why it’s so hard to delete them
Okay, I know I’m not the only one who saves pretty much every picture of her biases, and I know I can’t be the only one who’s phone is totally full because of those pictures. I honestly don’t understand this myself 100%, but there’s something about having them that makes me happy... and deleting them is way too hard omg
3. Why it’s entertaining to watch them even if we can’t understand them
While it is really frustrating to watch a video without subs, sometimes there’s not a need for them right away. Especially with BTS for me, I can watch them without subs and be entertained and fangirl just as hard. Other than that we just wait for subs and continue towards our goal of learning Korean someday. xD
2. Why we fangirl so hard during music videos
While a huge part of it is their looks because omg they are hot, that’s not always the reason we fangirl. I fangirl over how well their vocals sound or how good the song is as well, so it’s a pity that some friends think I/we love them just for looks
1. Why we listen to music we don’t understand
Every friend ever has asked me why, but I actually like not being able to understand the music until I look it up. Its fun being able to try and figure out what the song is saying through the music video of the sound, it’s one of my favorite things to do. And then when I fall in love with a song and look at what the song is really saying, it makes me fall in love with it all over again. Either that or I sit there like “lol omg I was so off on what this song means, oops.”
