sohee leaving comments on kyungsoo’s ig in oct last year and then jan on his bday, and then liking his post in june, and now following him in oct is such a funny timeline 😭 why does she keep visiting his page ijbol it’s DRY
Backup singers next😳 Just having a live band has improved the acoustics so much and I love him harmonizing with himself but since he can't harmonize with another Kyungsoo singing live, backup singers would make the sound divine.
Do Korean performers usually have backup singers, though?
that's a good question, I don't actually know 🤔 I've rarely if ever seen them in kpop concerts I agree it would elevate some songs even more, particularly songs like ordinary days and I'm fine where backups are an integral part of the song structures - he definitely should consider them
the band is already a 1st step, I wasn't expecting him to bring one on board for the fancon - definitely wished for and expected one for the tour but this was a surprise I think some arrangements need some tweaks here and there (some of these cuts have way too much drum don't they, although I'm only speaking from fancams so who knows lol), but it's good practice!!! that's also why I'm so glad that he's promoting more now and even attending more concerts, he's building up some handy experience and a certainly useful, varied contact list
yessss a fellow spark appreciator! it seems to be the least popular, though that just might be the fact that the fandom overall has a lot of misplaced resentment towards her
do you mean towards the song, or towards winter herself? I'm not in on the fandom drama, what is that about?
and yeah the other 3 are just very basic and forgettable imo - with the unique voice karina has on her I hope they won't just throw whatever they have left from the kai early-exo-tour-solo-perf-vault at her in the future, and I need something that showcases ningning's lower register a lot more!! winter on the other hand I feel gets to showcase the strengths of her voice more with this which is also why i particularly favour spark, she has a very sweet yet strong voice that works in suchhh a satisfying way with the song she's slowly finding her niche I think, I rly liked the work she did on supernova as well as illusion before that, whereas I used to find the yyj gimmicks very unflattering if not straight up grating on her the direction she's been taking lately is much better if you ask me
I'm a cc anon and I wasn't worried about him not having screen time, I was worried he wouldn't have time for extra singing on the side lol Screen time is irrelevant if the story and character are both well done. He was barely in Along with the Gods(he wasn't even a good guy exactly), but he stood out because of his acting.
IRY was overall a flop drama, but at that time, he dominated headlines and people would refer to that role when they say they want their faves to act psycho. It elevated him from youthful roles in people's eyes.
Do we need to look deeper in Han sohee following kyungsoo or was it just purely for friendship reasons ? Cause I wouldn’t say he was the closest to her during 100% days ( or maybe they were and we never really knew ) and she doesn’t seem to be following any of her other friends ( + why didn’t she follow him before ) or is there is any other explanation that doesn’t implicate me being delusional ?
no idea they obviously kept in contact as per her commenting his ig and having a nickname for him so I'd be inclined to say it's more in that continuity? maybe ksoo just now followed her and she followed back? idk I tend not to read too much into stuff like this tbh
tho if it's all (both the comments and now her following him) because they're reuniting for a project we will know soon enough
i saw one of her fans say they either have another project together or they hung out recently. she’s apparently done this before where she interacts with her friend’s post but only remembers to follow them after hanging out with them
I think we'll see some Exo members(Xm and Cy are my guess, because I don't know if Sh has been attending concerts since enlistment) in the Encore audience. It's his first relatively big Korean fanmeet where it wouldn't be like celebrities were taking fan seats, so some idols would be there.
sehun was at chanyeol's concert with kyungsoo
I didn't even think of it ngl but well he isss kind of treating it like a concert what with the big venue, live band, etc etc so ig that could happen?
- let's not forget he did have woobin and kwangsoo on stage with him as well, although that was a surprise (which!!! I'm still not over it it was so sweet of them)
Woobin and kwangsoo are more like surprise guest who surprised him as well. Not sure about CY considering he’s in Japan(?) but Idk if kyungsoo is the type to invite celebrities considering it is a fancon but as you said he is treating it like a concert so who knows. I’ve seen some actors and idols have guests in their fanmeetings but they were invited by the artists themselves
wait what was this whole chanbaek fiasco about? i've been without twitter for over a month and my nosy ass can't stand all this new drama 😭😭😭😭
OH UNBOXING HIS ALBUM????? that's just plain nasty to cy 😭 and these must be the same people that hate on kyungsoo because of an ..... imaginary couple ?
righttt even in the event where they were a couple how does this even make sense? are they not their own person? why would you bring up another person at a dedicated fansign... it just makes absolutely no sense I haven't seen anything of the sort being reported during bbh's fansigns too... makes u think
and yup, indeed we're prob looking at 3 more years of kyungsoo being the villain in their fanfics with the way pcy mentions him unprompted (Which reminds me I never got around to reading that 10800 fic whatever the order of the numbers is no matter how much i say ill do it for prosperity)
I don't understand why some dandanies are so bothered with the encore tickets. selling almost 20K in tickets for a fancon is not easy especially when you think of the high price compared to other acts ( although I understand that the expereince is that of a concert but it's still marketed as a fancon at the end of the day so i understand when non-fans don't want to spend concert prices on a fancon that many mistankingly think is just an intimate setting for him and fans cause that's the case for fancons anyway) but selling 98% of a 7k venue for three days is not easy and 20K is not an easy nor a small non impressive number so I still don't understand why people are so focused on them as if he has the full venue empty
bc kpop fans are obsessed with the "sold out" label it's as simple as that lol anyway, whole ass fuss only for the available seats to be provided at like 99% that pannchoa admin is gonna have to find some other way to deflect their anger and bitterness at their bias selling so little his whole European leg had to be CANCELLED!
the lightstick discourse, on both sides, is so ridiculously overblown. I had no idea this expensive, rarely used piece of plastic was so important for people. I mean it’s great if he has a solo one, it won't make him less of an exo member the way exols seem to think and not having one wouldn’t be the end of the world either and it definitely won't revive the nearly dead group. As for what ls to bring, I personally think css should allow all ls, the exo one, solo one if he ever has one, other artists' and even fanmade ones. Fanwars aside, I'm actually curious about the ip fees. Obviously css is paying sm for the lightshow but would they have to pay if there's no lightshow and fans just bring their ls?
no, everyone is free to bring whatever they want this shouldn't be seen under the prism of ip idk why ppl ran that way, css pay for the technology it has nothing to do with ip ofc they have to get the authorisation from sm and that reflects somewhere in the price but if sm were producing blank lightsticks with their own tech and css wanted to use said tech it'd be the same
im kinda confused: do njs have an actual manager? was mhj their manager, creative director, and ceo? shouldnt a manager be helping the girls through everything theyve been through? like hanni's comment about the other hybe group's manager saying to ignore her, where was njs manager during this? i feel like a lot of these complaints would be taken more seriously by hybe if it was brought up by a non-artist adult i.e. a manager? why did hanni herself have to go to the ador ceo for a complaint?
I don't follow nj outside of their music but if I had to wager a guess then I'd say I don't see how they could even function without field managers maybe mhj herself limits their roles into purely logistical ones though I honestly would not be surprised to hear that with how freakishly controlling she seems to be 😵💫
What I got from watching Kdramas is that people labelled as managers in SK are road managers who can help and stuff but directors are more like the Scooter Braun type manager/agent. It's why Kyungsoo getting Nam Kyungsoo on his side early on has been great for him. This means NJ are really screwed without MHJ
not to be me anon but did you maaayybbeeee watch call my agent?
I actually think it's a mix of both for idols if you look at exo for example they're pretty close to their managers, I think that on top of the whole logistics aspect they're supposed to be kind of "care keepers" - but indeed, they don't get involved in career aspects, as you're describing that's mostly the role of directors
if kkpp spin off is supposed to finish filming in october then aren’t they almost done? and we haven’t even heard a single muggle ecounter yet
ddn is worried about ks screen time because he is doing other things in between filming, while jcw is still promoting 'revolver' and starting to promote 'gangnam bside'. why is ks being busy making you worried? i mean its not the first time for him been like this. when exo was active , he is filming while preparing for cb, concert etc.

I think the exos made their peace with the first fiasco, but after june this year you can already tell which members are done with each ohters. They kept peace before and even attended his concert, but this time suho clearly doesn't fùck around with cbx anymore and pcy seems to be trying to keep a good facade but it is not working and the cbkist are not helping their case. I feel like kyungsoo, being the least affected by their decision might be very unphased. kai is a mistery in my opinion. caus ehe was probably the one meant to leave with baek and not xiuchen but who knows what he actually think, sure enough he neither went to baekhyun concert and he's been very buddy buddy wit suho so that might hint to which side he is taking
what are you guys getting from pcy 👂you're the 2nd anon that talks about his attitude/feelings towards bbh (independently of the whole chanbaek fiasco which.... omg I felt so bad for him)
kai was probably contacted by mc mong indeed, there's audios of mc mong saying he wanted kaibaek the whole shtick of going for a subunit + taemin joining bpm makes me think he was trying to have himself at least /part/ of superm (ig the strategy could be to have a bit of each brand, in this case exo-shinee(-nct? maybe later on))
ksoo rly does look like he doesn't gaf lol he was definitely cool with every member before the 2nd layer of fuckery and idk I doubt he's not now

can dandans pls stop engaging with exols for topics that have fought over 231675 times already???
tbf I do get why dandans get mad since exol are always polluting css' quotes but yea it's tired
group in shambles, shading each other, haven't stepped foot in a studio tgt despite spoiling a comeback earlier this year to desperately keep their audience checking out some of their solo stuff no one else is looking up, I say let exol have this even, they're suffering enough as it is
Yeah, I wish it were collapsible at least
yeah I'll try to suggest this as well, it does clutter the page and makes it harder to scroll down
the admins on here are very open to suggestions hopefully they can do it if the demand is popular from what i'm getting the feature itself is very recent so it might evolve with time either way
