nct 127 ult, i ult doyoung. i love a lot of sm groups and other kpop groups casually
the way i did see some kfans praising dy today for not bulking like the others members 😞https://x.com/do0liking/status/2069379360902291521?s=46
the thing is doyoung's conscious about what his k-fans and fans in general want to see and that includes them not liking him and i assume male idols not to bulk up too much :(( .. i just hope he's eating well and that him losing weight isn't worrying and that he takes care of himself and isn't too focused on what his fans want. i also think doyoung bulking up would have been so attractive eiacsdavb but i want him healthy 😞 that's most important.
ncity hasn’t been right since u ditched twt 💔
💔 mel don't say this please
Can't wait until doyoung gets older as he improves his vocals through the years so he can reach level 7 of vocal tier and also becomes a hot sexy dilf 😋
now don't threaten me with a good time anon 😋 😋 but doie reaching level 7 on the vocal tier as he continues to serenade me with his beautiful, luxurious voice would be heavenly. his vibrato and range and dynamics getting even better would be to die for and then becoming a hot sexy dilf™ as his new brand identity. sign me up. in all seriousness though i think at his rate of improvement he really will end up becoming even better and sustain it, given the level of investment he has in his vocal health and technique and improving.
"i find this discussion interesting because nct makes tons of ballads anyway so this weird animosity makes no sense" actually this is where the problem starts, its bc half of the fandom dont listen to ilichil b-sides, only the tts
i'm split on this because i think nctzens spend so long talking about shipping, yaoi, infighting and fanwars that the music gets lost sometimes ( specifically on twt). however nctzens do tend to care about the music from what i've seen but kpop fans in general are awful at distinguishing genres from what i've noticed lol. if this is true this would be concerning lol but also i think people just like generalising doyoung's music. 127 have tons of great ballads and even r&b ballads that i adore. it's hard to tell who does listen to the music and who doesn't given how nctzens act on twt and tt sometimes though lol.
127home is only beef fam let's wake that up firstly
well not really but if 127home is any one person it's kind of doyoung as the embodiment, have you seen that man's commitment and dedication even when enlisted lol.
one time mark said beer fam only want t
i think those 4 work is bc markhyuck and johndo are super close separately and ofc doyoung is super close to both mahae and johnny is close to mark so they just naturally formed. one time mark said they like hanging out just them 4 after concerts in their hotel room
i mean they all clearly mesh well together, i remember on hyell's club with hyeri doyoung said that the four of them can end up spending as long as 7 hours simply talking.
it would be really funny if all of nct were straight after 10years plus of nctzens yaoi posting (not that i think that’s possible bc statistically someone gotta be queer, but it would just be really funny if they all came out as straight)
i mean the odds of most idols coming out is slim to none for obvious reasons so it's just a case of them not saying anything i would assume. whatever their sexualities are at the end of the day i just hope they're all happy and well but the thought of that is sort of funny, although statistically impossible.
Cattseye are so odd imo...they already have messy drama thats usually reserved for old 10 year groups but the difference is they barely started. Musically they're so confusing and just putting out anything but ig That's the hybe effect. They Have more drama than songs atp. I remember their fans having superiority complex towards Kpop and its fans bc they think Cattseye are "sisters" with close bond unlike kpop groups and the Fandom are more "progressive" and accepts diversity unlike Kpop stans. But look at how the tables turned now, the fandom is divided between group fans vs man0n solos and all of them has been weird to the melanated girls, lara and manon 👀👀
i mean Katseye is the perfect case study of hybe doing everything wrong and what happens with survival show groups, what happens when you're not transparent and don't handle a member's hiatus well and just their doubling down on making music that isn't conducive to creating an identity around the group except for creating discourse. a huge number of pop fans will never take them seriously as long as their music continues down the same path too and they clearly have the performance ability to deliver and the personalities to engage people so i hope the music actually gets better. that and hybe's transparency around manon.
I think I do have an explanation for most of the ncity rankings for solos. Because of the type of music NCT makes, nctzens clearly enjoy hiphop/rnb. So Haechan and Jaehyun are most of the time ranked first. NCT is super experimental so Taeyong’s music is well liked among the fandom. NCT haven’t really delved into rock or pop rock as often so Yuta and Doyoung’s music isn’t as well received by nctzens. I feel like if you asked a different kpop fandom (like btob fans) to rank the solos get a completely different result. So because the fandom is biased towards certain genres I wouldn’t take their opinion to be the end all be all.
i do agree the ranking for solos is fandom dependent and would differ based on a group's fandom and what genres they delve into most but it's not even just that though. kpop fans in general have a tendency to not care as much about what they perceive to be ballads ( and authentic ballads ) in general since it tends to be less appealing to what draws most people into kpop and the element of understanding the lyrics is lost, so an emotional layer of the music is lost which is integral to ballads.
i find this discussion interesting because nct makes tons of ballads anyway so this weird animosity makes no sense, plus there are multiple members with ballads so again weird critique. i also just find it bizzare because although i understand the preferences to hip-hop and r&b it doesn't mean that people need to mischaracterise or trivialise x member's own music.
taeyong's music is indeed experimental in many ways and neo but his music also gets oversimplified to that label of neo sometimes when it's reductive, his music also mainly pulls from hip-hop, r&b, pop and pop-rock from what i'm aware of but he also blends genres in his music so experimental does make sense. i understand why someone is less likely to be inclined to perhaps prefer or like yuta's and doyoung's music and it doesn't automatically bother me lol. it's the weird condescension and disrespect and selectivism. though who cares about this all in the grand scheme of things. i'm enjoying all the solos in their own way so i'm psyched for any neo solo release.
Also if you want to know more about kpop idols dancing/choreographing, the only YouTuber that I enjoy that does dance analysis’ is Jessica Holyfield. She’s done all of NCT127s dance practices and Ten’s solo works. She picks a group/soloist to marathon, some of her content is behind a paywall on Patreon. If you want to pirate that there’s a website called kemonoparty (it has so many ads). You search it, go to the artists header and write the name of her account and it pops up
i'm excited to get this rec considering i like watching dance analysis, there's this one channel i watch occasionally called facts in fiction but delving more into critical dance and vocal analysis sounds fun to me. i think i'll check out both her 127 and ten solo analysis some time but thank you again.
