exo mentioned but at what cost 😭😭😭😭 their situation is a very uniquely complicated one and i don't think svt would ever see themselves in a mess like that lmao but i guess it's a good example of the different ways an idol can leave a company and the repercussions it can have, kyungsoo never renewed his contract with sm but it's still a part of exo, cbx did renew their contracts but tried to terminate them not even a year later, came to an agreement to revise the terms of the contract with sm and then breached the new contract by refusing to pay a 10% royaltie fee they agreed on and then sued sm over it, that's how we ended up where we are now 😭😭😭

everyone's so cute and then here i am feeling old lmao i discovered svt through running man (i think that was mansae? era) and the fact that they have 13 members stick out to me. i wasn't even into idols at that time but somehow i felt like searching them up and i watched one of the mansae stage. i remember feeling amazed by the quality of their performance. from there i was led to members' fancams and found dino. i knew i like him from the get go. the way he dance, his attention to details and his facial expressions were all so impressive. i love the fact that he gets better every comeback too. also don't judge me, i know carats don't particularly like his mansae hair era but to me who was just a teenager at that time, i thought he look cool. honestly he just shines so bright on stage that i couldn't be bothered to care about the styling. now i prefer long haired dino (sorry channie lol) but i still think fondly of mansae dino. he's just such a cutie. anyway, then i started watching svt contents with whatever limited translations available at that time and fall in love with his laughs. he seemed so timid sometimes among his many hyungs that i didn't expect for him to have such a loud and contagious laugh. as i get to know him more, i find that he's relatable in a lot of ways and we're like around the same age too. most importantly, he's just so adorable! everything he does just becomes adorable to me but then when i see him perform on stage, i get hit again with the same awe i had the first time i see his fancam. whenever he's performing, he's just the coolest person in the entire world and you can just feel that he loves what he's doing. he makes me want to keep supporting that passion in him, makes me want to see just how far he can go. as years go by and i get to see him grow and bloom into himself, my love for him also just keeps growing. i didn't even know that was possible but that's why he's just so amazing. like his name, i hope he keeps shining for a long, long time.

talking about changing companies yeah it'd be difficult for them to do it and still remain one group but being 100% honest i think they've proven enough times already that their bond is strong enough to prevail even if they were to not be in the same group anymore so it wouldn't be the end of the world TO ME but i understand most carats don't feel that way also i'm just really fed up with that company's antics to the point where i can't even enjoy most svt content anyway because plybe keeps going out of their way to find the worst people they can just so that they can include them in everything their groups do and there's only so much of that i can ignore

ngl seeing the discourse and the mess of a promotion, i was starting to get tired of everything especially when life is already tiring enough. but i'm also very dino and yaoi focused so when i watched the going picheolin, my mind just went straight to what if woopdxpicheolin like i don't think i register much of anything else. (actually i lied, there's a lot i could criticize about it and curse plybe for but everyone already had a lot to say so i didn't feel the need to add on to it). i just wish things get resolved soon so everyone especially dino and dinonaras can be happy again. 🩵
