This is the most retarded argument I've ever had the displeasure of reading. You guys should really reflect on how idiotic and pointless this argument is. At the end of the day, the people that like the choreo will still like it and the people that think it's over the top will still think the same. Save everyone from reading the next few pages of what will be a circular clusterfuck of no one giving a shit on your view of the choreo.

Hmmmmm, it's sort of a paradox imo. There's a huge part of me that likes kpop because of the fairly conservative culture, and that that cute charm is very sexy. But, a part of me also wants to see more skin.

I change my mind, I agree w/ Tuelite on this one. I know when I'm wrong.

seriously, only hipsters wear lenseless frames, that's why i label them hipster glasses.

Thats not how things work, opinions change with proper argumentation.

All the refutation I need is just a page back



Through a discussion an opinion was changed. Also you present your opinion in a way that is counter-intuitive to what voluntarily being apart of an online community entails. You don't have to read this, you don't have to change your opinion or even have one, but some people do have one and some people will change theirs.

Edit: Don't want to get banned for a meta only post so have some SNSD

It's honestly comical that some people that frequent this thread actually try to argue as if some of these sexually charged moments that pop up frequently throughout the general Korean pop scene are an aberration. You have to be willfully ignorant, have an incredibly selective memory, or suffer a catastrophic cognitive dissonance if you can't see that this kind of exploitation has always underlined this industry that has exploited this primal and (hilariously overt) desire that the fan base has expressed for as long as I can remember (over a decade).

Don't even try to pretend as if the image worshipping that alone sustains and perpetuates this godforsaken hellhole of a thread to such levels is not materialistic and sexualized at all times. This by itself isn't really a great problem to me, whatever, every community needs an opium (it's just depressing that a bunch of international people have clatched onto one of the more banal, superficial, troublesome, degenerative, and embarrassing part of modern Korean culture and have elevated it into an idol - it's pretty much cultish), but if you try to take this and try to place it onto the highest of pedestals, then I don't have much to say but to comment that you need to take a deep step back and think about it again.

This thread is so fucking creepy and inane.

Then leave. You aren't wanted nor do you want to be here.

Believe it or not, some people actually used to post good Korean music instead of just spamming the thread with the same image-based "artists" every once in a while. Very rarely, but still, it used to happen. I still check this thread once in a while for similar things but it never happens anymore. Should just change this thread into "Korean Pop Discussion".

Whatever, this thread is just beyond the edge. There's no reason for me to ever visit it again.
