Super disappointed in this - just like we ask other communities to support us in this type of behavior, we have to do the same. If you're black and you witness any kind of mistreatment of other minority groups, speak up.
patiently waiting.
Love RaVaughn! Didn't know she had work in this sphere. Good for her. But I can think of a few more artists who have written/produced K-Pop songs. Tiyon "TC" Christian, Druski, Teddy Riley (Call Me Baby - EXO), DemJointz (Obsession, Ya Ya Ya and more - EXO, Don't U Wait No More - Red Velvet, Cherry Bomb, Kick It - NCT). There are lots of Black creators that contribute to the K-Pop sphere and shout out to AKP for these articles.
It's giving 2NE1 "Come Back Home" vibes. I liked ONF's debut though, I'll check it out.
Great contribution to let it be known that black history is relevant worldwide.
I'll never grow tired of watching them GENUINELY love on each other. So few K-Pop acts behave as friends off stage and off camera, so I love that my faves actually mess with each other years after no longer working together. It's beautiful.
I was dragged (down voted) for criticising Eli's decision to leave Korea altogether - but this is exactly why I was so critical. He has a home to return to - his partner didn't. I believe it's important that when you have children to do your best to involve yourself so that neither parent finds themselves in a situation that would inadvertently disadvantage the child. Younger than her or not, you must do what's best for your child. Maybe he was in the same straits financially and felt that he couldn't support them both, but leaving isn't really helping the situation. I hope she's able to find work and provide for the child, this is really unfortunate.
"Good To You"?!? A BOOOOOOOOP. 2NE1 really could have been so much more if YG truly believed in them and held on to them post the Park Bom scandal.
Can y'all not read? A father can be a father figure. And he says he will co-parent. What more do you want.
I read very well - and comprehend even better. The existence of 'figure' in the statement implies that the aforementioned subject is not also the father. I wouldn't call my father a father figure - because he is my father. Words mean things. The core issue is that he shared that he left the country because he left his wife for me. My opinion is that his child still needs him - regardless of the relationship with his now estranged wife. It would be difficult to be a present parent outside of the country. As I mentioned in my earlier comment, maybe there is a reason that he decided to leave (which acknowledges there could be a reason for his move that I am not privy to.) which would make the decision easier to accept. As it's written, it sounds like he left Korea because he is separating from his wife and that alone is not a good enough reason to take such great distance from your child. You're welcome to feel differently, and I won't insult you for it.
It's not"a father figure". YOU'RE his father 😶 Crazy...
That's what I said! How you just flee the whole country like you don't have a child there??? Sir - get an apartment for yourself and make a plan to co-parent. He's likely sad that the relationship has fallen apart, but that's no excuse to just go back home. Hopefully there's more to the story that would explain his decision, but that didn't sound good. He should have written it differently.
Dang CL. I was looking forward to the album because 5 Star AND HWA were such bops. Hopefully she can promote more and increase anticipation. But also - shout out to her for even being able to make such a decision. Working with a label she would have little to NO say in that process. I'll be waiting for it.
I audibly yelled out no. Crush is my fave man. Sad to see him go.
Interesting - I actually really liked her debut song. Hopefully her future plans succeed. It seems that she has a clear vision for how she wants to succeed, so cheers to her for pushing ahead instead of just fading away.
Everybody thinks this when anyone passes away - she could've used a different photo but I totally understand the intent and how the photo correlates with expressed desire to live more happily and earnestly.
IT'S SO GOOD! I think I cried a little. THE QUEEN IS BACK!
NOW ALL I WANT IS 2NE1 THIS 2021🔥🔥🔥🔥I'm with you! Can we PLEASE get a 2NE1 reunion performance in 2021?! Not even a comeback, I'll take a Gayo Daejun/MAMA special stage. I AM NOT PICKY!
I'm soooooooo happy to see her back performing. I LOVE 5Star and I really like HWA too. Hopefully she can get a GD feature on a remix or something because it's right up his lane.
I meeeeeeeeeeeean.... This isn't going anywhere - but I'm not surprised *in a hushed voice* (aaaaaaaand I don't disagree with the core point here). If you're advocating to celebrate China's role in the Korean War, without simultaneously acknowledging that China was working against South Korea WHILE WORKING IN SOUTH KOREA... What exactly were you expecting here? Lay - I get. Kyulking - you're mad and you should be. The Cosmic Girls members.... Girls... Read the room. This was ill advised.
But do you routinely scream at your workplace and reduce your coworkers to tears? Be realistic here, stuff that's being talked about is not just bEINg HuMAn 🤪 , it's genuine entitlement and harassment.
I don't. I also don't know Irene, this photographer, or what happened in this situation. It's easy to judge from an article and I'm choosing to refrain from condemning someone I don't know when they likely receive hate on a day when the public doesn't know anything bad about them. Humans are flawed. We take our anger out on people who don't deserve it. We don't work on our flaws. We passively enable bad behavior sometimes not knowing the harm it causes. We cause more harm by being meanspirited in critique rather than restoring people to a good place. I'm sure someone could tell a story about me that would make me sound like an absolute villain - though my perspective would be different. I'm not excusing Irene's behavior - I'm saying that as I don't have the ability to truly have an impact on how she changes from this situation, I hope she does grow up. That's genuinely all we (commenters) can do. I'm not an RV stan trying to minimize her wrong doing. I'm a fellow human who has done wrong as well and am choosing to believe the best about the situation. Peace to you and all others who would read this. We have enough hatred in our world - let's be light to each other, even to the lost ones.
That's unfortunate - but I'm glad that she owned up to it. If I had people publicly expose me everytime I was rude to someone or overreacted to something, I'd be giving out a lot of apologies. We're all human and make bad decisions - hopefully this isn't a pattern for her and she truly learns from the situation.
So why would they mention a country that was assisting in their demise? Chile...
Yes, you can sexualize anything if you look hard enough, teachers, the elderly, pets, children. There are very good reasons why it shouldn't be done. Especially overtly
The Nurse's Union's point Is "Blackpink is a BIllion Won selling Idol group with influence so "Please don't make it worse""
As the Spouse of a Nurse, who hears every week about the patients who sexually harass my wife, I understand where they are coming from.
A Nurse by profession and often by life is a caregiver, their job is to take care of those who are not well. What happens on the job they often can not just leave on the job, especially when it comes to harassment and the trauma it can bring.
To have the nursing profession sexualized almost glorifies if not justifies just behavior.
The Criticism isn't unjustified, and it isn't even overly harsh. But obviously, some people can't handle criticism, especially if it's of their favs.
My girlfriend is about to complete her nursing degree and she's already talked about how poorly some of the patients have treated her. Thank you for providing more perspective on this.
I get it - and I don't. BUT I recognize that the matters they've bought up are legitimate, I just don't perceive it as a severe infraction. I can certainly think of other K-Pop idols who have blatantly done what is being accused of here. This look is only a flash in the video and it's not sexy at all - just a simplified nurse aesthetic. All that said, I don't want to be a part of silencing a group because I don't have or understand that lived experience. I hope that YG and the association can have amicable talks and discuss a resolution.
SuperM just released an album with like 17 songs on it. They've only been a group for 1 year - I just think BP deserves the effort and range.
That story deadass made me want to cry. That is such a horrible thing to do to anyone, let alone your brother. May Mr. Soo Hong be more successful and heal from this. I could not imagine the hurt and pain this must be causing him.
