Don’t Listen In Secret✨

10 years loving a group, seeing them grow, accomplish a bunch of a things and being there from the start supporting them in any way we could and THIS is what they give us?? That, for the medal alone???

I know they do this for other groups, like bts, but I didn’t know it was this expensive tf, is it a thing there that I haven’t search that well?? I feel out of my game not knowing the details and significance of this.

For that amount of money I would expect to get an exact replica of svt’s rings with my own name in it AT LEAST.

I’m I the only one that thinks that carats who only use twitter and newer stans have WAY more different opinions in general and higher standards??

Like, this may sound so dumb but whenever they are criticizing something about svt, most of them compare it to other groups, for example, saying things like “why can’t they do this like so and so” “why is pledis not doing this like so and so’s company” “I’m not gagging, it feels boring” “I looked at svt’s concept photos and sighed” like ?????

Why are they being so critical about it??? It’s one thing to say “Oh it wasn’t to my liking” or “I see it but it looks simple to me” instead of completely bashing the group and company and being so mean about it.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t like pledis either and I know they’ve made so many shitty decisions since before svt debuted but also I’ve been a kpop stan for more than a decade and I know, like many other stans, how those companies work, we know how comebacks work, it’s not great and it might never be.

Not one single company OR group is prefect.

So I really don’t get the hate for this comeback’s concept considering it’s the last one that it’s OT13 in who knows how long.

And that’s why I’m feeling so old because yes BACK IN THE DAY we had nothing like what we have today, back in they having 2 ver. of an album was already big, different versions and whole different designs of the albums not just a change of color was so cool, having like 300+ variations of photocards was WILD. And also having them available?? Being able to buy not just on the internet but in our own countries when back in the day the only option was buying from South Korea??? Like kpop in general has come so far and I feel like SOME stans are just too greedy and ungrateful.

With everything that’s happening in the K-pop community right now.

The fucked up thing is, I do trust them.

I trust Seventeen, the reason I became a carat since the beginning was because I felt safe with them, like with no other group, and that’s what’s scary.

But no matter how much may hurt, I want all those names revealed, I want them in jail, no matter the group, no matter the idol, I’ll never side with an abuser/criminal.

And to every kpop stan, I will not blame you for stanning that person or any other in the future when we didn’t know a thing, NO MATTER THE FANDOM, because it’s never about that, it’s women’s rights.

My heart is with all the victims and to all K-pop Stan’s take as long as you want to mourn a person like that, take a break from K-pop, put yourself first.
