so actually I love kpop myself and this rant is not about kpop as a whole. It's about some of the so-called "fans" of kpop what I mean by "fans" (airquotes) are the ones who are like "OMG I love kpop it's the best" when they only listen to the popular blackpink songs. and then when you ask them "how many members are there in [kpop group]?" they like "uhh..let's change the subject" you can't really call yourself a "fan" if you only listen to their popular songs. or have just heard about them and call yourself a fan. most of the people ik that do that are..SURPRISE! asian fishers or just people who want to belong in the kpop community. and most if those people aren't comfy in their own skin. they want to belong. just be yourself and don't lie about yourself, fanbases, etc. and that goes for so-called kpop "fans" AND asian fishers.
