I don't want to walk in this 미로

다 아는 건 아니어도

Hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh~

I feel like this might be a hot take.

And I have this hot take because of all the arguments I keep seeing in the comments under people reacting to this group, or talking about how they're copies, how their personalities are fake, how there's nothing original about them, etc. Because as much as I don't hate the music that CORTIS puts out, and I genuinely really like Lngshot, WAYF Boys come off as way more authentic to me.

And I think there are a couple reasons for that.

First of all, they remind me of NSB.

If you were around during the pandemic era on TikTok and social media in general, you probably remember the North Star Boys. They were basically a group of guys who came together, made content together, built friendships together, and eventually started making music together.

That's the energy I get from WAYF Boys.

They don't really give me "the company assembled five boys who fit a concept and told them to become best friends." They give me, "these guys actually met each other, got along, formed friendships, decided they wanted to make music together, and then somebody eventually put a company around it."

They also remind me a little bit of PRETTYMUCH in that sense. It's just a group of guys who seem like they actually enjoy being around each other and then happen to make music together.

And honestly, I think part of why they feel more believable to me is because I grew up as a mixed-race Black and Asian American person.

Because there are WAY too many K-pop companies, and frankly way too many Asian people, who love American and Black culture but aren't actually educated about it. They know the aesthetic. They know the music. They know a few words and references. But they don't necessarily understand where any of that shit came from.

And I'm not saying that's the case with CORTIS or Lngshot specifically. I'm saying that I don't automatically trust a company to understand the culture just because the group is making music influenced by it.

Especially when one of the people involved is Bang PD.

I don't trust Bang PD any further than I can throw him.

And if you've seen that man, you know damn well I cannot throw him. 😭

But seriously, when I look at the music recommendations these different members give, the artists they talk about listening to, and the things they've said they were actually influenced by, some of it lines up with the aesthetic their companies are pushing.

But a LOT of it doesn't.

And that's one of the things that makes WAYF Boys more believable to me.

Four out of the five of them grew up overseas in America and Canada. They've shown a lot more of their actual personalities through livestreams and pre-debut content. They're all adults. They've already had experience as trainees and, in some cases, being on survival shows. They didn't just get randomly scouted, put into a training room, and told, "Congratulations, you're a group now."

From everything we've seen so far, their formation seems a lot more organic.

From what I've gathered, Andrew, who I believe is the oldest, already knew or had interacted with some of the other members, and eventually they all ended up at this company together. So it feels more like they already had experience in the industry, already knew what they wanted to do, and then found each other.

And they're actually involved in the creative process.

From the behind-the-scenes content we've gotten so far, it looks like they work with an in-house producer to some degree, but they're also doing a lot of their own choreography and creative work. I believe Anderson is the one who's particularly involved with choreography.

So yeah, obviously there are going to be things about them that aren't completely organic.

They're celebrities.

Nobody is 100% themselves all the time. Hell, we aren't even 100% ourselves all the time. You are not going to act exactly the same way on Instagram that you do when you're sitting in your friend's kitchen at 2 AM eating leftovers and talking shit.

But there's a difference between having a public persona and feeling like the person behind the persona actually exists.

WAYF Boys feel like actual people to me.

And I think that's part of why some of the criticism I've been seeing is so weird.

Because some, not all, and I'm emphasizing that because I know some of y'all are fans of these groups, but some CORTIS and Lngshot fans have been saying WAYF Boys have nothing original about them.

And I'm sorry, but that's hilarious to me.

You're comparing groups made up primarily of Korean people who grew up in Asia to a group where the majority of the members grew up overseas.

Even Martin, if I'm remembering correctly, only lived in Canada for part of his childhood before moving to Korea.

Meanwhile, WAYF Boys have members who spent basically their entire childhoods in diverse environments in America and Canada before eventually becoming trainees.

Those are fundamentally different experiences.

And then people get mad because WAYF Boys use American slang.

Shorty has been slang forever.

There is literally a Wayans character named Shorty. 😭

So when these boys say something along the lines of "they ain't got no shorties but the WAYF Boys do," and people immediately go, "OMG THEY'RE DISSING THE OTHER GROUP BECAUSE THAT'S THEIR FANDOM NAME!"

I'm going to be so real with you.

I was already side-eyeing Jay Park for making that the fandom name because I KNOW how many K-pop fans don't listen to anything outside of K-pop.

A lot of them genuinely don't know that "shorty" is just slang.

It can mean your girl, your girlfriend, a woman you're attracted to, somebody you're trying to holler at, etc. It's been part of American slang forever.

You cannot just take an incredibly common word, register it as a fandom name in Korea, and suddenly act like nobody else is allowed to use the word because your company gave it a capital letter.

That's not how language works. 😭

And then people were interpreting the line about "idol rappers trying to come for me" as some huge targeted diss and I'm like...

Have y'all listened to K-pop before?

BTS has literally had songs where they criticized idol rappers. Block B has done it. Groups with members who came from underground rap scenes have been doing this forever.

That's not some revolutionary new form of beef.

And honestly, this is where I'm probably going to piss some people off, but I don't care.

I hate that 90% of K-pop idols who are labeled rappers aren't actually rappers.

They're performers who have been given rap parts.

There is a difference.

Being a rapper isn't just being able to say words quickly over a beat. Writing matters. Flow matters. Rhythm matters. Freestyling matters. Being able to manipulate words and cadence to actually communicate something over a beat matters.

If somebody can't write or freestyle at all and they're just being handed eight lines in a song and told to perform them, I'm sorry, but I don't personally consider that person a rapper.

And that's not even an insult to them. They're singers and performers who happen to have rap parts.

There is nothing wrong with that.

But I think WAYF Boys making comments about idol rappers is funny because some of y'all are acting like they invented the concept of a rapper criticizing another rapper.

They did not.

And then there's the double standard.

Because I really don't think people realize how obvious it is.

When something controversial happens with one of these other groups, suddenly it's:

"They're Korean, they don't know any better."

"They didn't mean it that way."

"They weren't trying to appropriate anything."

"But they grew up in Korea!"

"They weren't exposed to that culture!"

But then WAYF Boys, a group where the majority of the members actually grew up in America or Canada, comes out with a sound and aesthetic influenced by Black American culture and suddenly:

"They're cosplaying Black culture."

"They're trying to copy this group."

"They're trying to act American."

"They're fake."

Like...

How does that make sense?

You're telling me a group of people who were born and raised in Korea and may have never lived overseas couldn't possibly be doing something problematic because they "don't know better," but a group of guys who actually grew up in America and Canada, who actually lived around these cultures, listened to this music, experienced racism themselves, and grew up with the slang are somehow the ones who are "cosplaying"?

Please make that make sense for me.

And then we have the whole CEO situation.

People got mad because their CEO responded to people accusing WAYF Boys of copying another group.

First of all, songs are not made in two fucking days.

From everything the members have said, this song has apparently been sitting around for a while. We're talking about something that was likely written and developed a year or more ago.

You cannot look at something that was already in production and go, "Well, this other group released something similar recently, therefore they copied it."

That's not how music production works.

And then there was the whole situation with Andrew and the mascot drawing.

People were accusing him of copying Woojin because of the drawing associated with WAYF Boys.

Except they've been using that character since before we even knew who the members were.

They were literally covering their faces with the drawing during their pre-debut period.

And their drawing styles are completely different.

Also, K-pop idols have been making their own mascots, logos, characters, and little cartoon representations of themselves for YEARS.

This is not new.

But apparently now Andrew personally invented the concept of drawing a little character and therefore somebody needs to send him death threats.

Which brings me back to something I keep noticing.

People can separate Jay Park from his group.

People can separate Bang PD from his groups.

But suddenly this CEO, who we barely know anything about, who doesn't seem particularly interested in making himself the face of his artists, stands up for his group one time, and suddenly:

"He's problematic, so I can't support WAYF Boys."

Okay.

But you can support groups under companies involved in all kinds of scandals?

You can separate the artist from the CEO when it's a company you already like, but suddenly the CEO's behavior becomes a moral line when it's a group you don't like?

Interesting.

And before somebody tells me I don't understand the Jay Park situation, baby, I was a Jay Park fan.

When I say I used to love that man down, I mean I USED TO LOVE THAT MAN DOWN.

I listened to his music constantly. I watched interviews. I watched behind-the-scenes content. You could not have told me shit about Jay Park during certain parts of the 2010s without me immediately defending him.

I was genuinely a fangirl.

And then I got older and realized...

Oh.

This man keeps making the same mistakes.

You cannot keep making the same culturally insensitive and racist decisions from your early twenties into your late twenties, apologize every single time, and then expect me to believe that you've genuinely learned from it.

At some point, you're just repeating the behavior.

You can't appropriate someone's culture, get called out, apologize, do it again, get called out, apologize again, and then act shocked when people eventually stop accepting the apology.

And especially when you've literally admitted that people who worked for you warned you not to do something because they knew exactly how it would be perceived, and you did it anyway.

That's where my issue comes in.

So when I see people saying, "I can separate Jay Park from his artists," but then suddenly they can't separate WAYF Boys from their CEO because he defended his group once...

Girl.

Please.

At least be consistent.

And honestly, I think WAYF Boys are a really interesting example of something that K-pop desperately needs right now:

the ability for idols to actually be fucking people.

People are calling them performative because they have a line about "fuck ICE."

Why?

Four of these men grew up in America and Canada.

I think they probably know what racism is.

I think they probably have reasons to dislike ICE.

And then people called them performative because there was a video of them fighting each other.

Except they explained that they were originally trying to film something, an argument happened, two of them actually got into a physical fight, and afterward they basically went, "Well... we already have the footage, might as well post it."

And somehow people think that's fake.

Baby, GOT7 members have literally talked about physically fighting each other.

Other idols have talked about getting into arguments and not liking each other at certain points.

This is not some unbelievable thing.

It's just one of the few times we've actually seen it.

And then people are upset because Anderson apparently has or had a girlfriend.

Like...

Okay?

And then people are calling the group fake because they thirst-trap.

They're grown.

The youngest member is 20.

They are all adults.

They can be shirtless. They can flirt. They can make horny jokes. They can post thirst traps. They can do whatever the fuck they want.

And I actually think part of the reason some people are uncomfortable with it is because they're not used to seeing K-pop idols who are genuinely grown adults behave like grown adults.

Because let's be honest, some of y'all are grown too.

I've seen people in their twenties talking about members of other groups who are literal teenagers in ways that make me want to put my phone down and stare at the wall.

Like, babes.

Martin and Louis are young.

You can think they're handsome or cute, sure.

But if you're a grown-ass adult talking about a teenager like he's your celebrity crush and you're describing him in ways that you would describe a grown man...

Please go outside.

WAYF Boys being adults and acting like adults is not the problem.

If anything, I wish more K-pop groups were allowed to do this.

And then people started saying all three groups sound the same.

Which is also funny because...

Yes.

They do.

Sometimes.

Because they're pulling from similar musical influences.

CORTIS has songs that sound extremely reminiscent of music from Black artists. Lngshot has songs that pull from older R&B and hip-hop sounds too.

I really like "FaceTime," but there is absolutely a 2000s or even '90s R&B song somewhere in there that my aunt immediately recognized.

She literally stopped and went, "This sounds like that one song."

And then I listened to it again and was like...

Yeah.

It fucking does.

That's because all three of these groups are pulling from similar eras of music.

We're talking contemporary R&B, 2010s R&B, 2020s hip-hop, '90s R&B, '90s hip-hop.

Of course they're going to overlap.

That's how genres work.

Hell, K-pop does this CONSTANTLY.

My aunt, who I've talked about before because she's a huge Stray Kids fan and also follows aespa, pointed out that this and that sounds like whole another animal she heard it and thought the bass and cadence were so similar.

And she's not wrong.

If you played certain songs back-to-back, you could probably make some insane DJ transitions because they're using similar BPMs, bass patterns, cadences, and production techniques.

That's K-pop.

A lot of K-pop songs sound alike.

This is not news.

There are entire genres of K-pop songs that are basically the same three production formulas wearing different outfits.

And that's why this whole thing frustrates me so much.

Because for once, we're getting a group that feels slightly more authentic.

They're R&B and hip-hop adjacent.

They're all adults.

They're not insanely sanitized.

Their livestreams feel less scripted.

They're allowed to talk a little more naturally.

They're allowed to show behind-the-scenes chaos.

They're allowed to apparently fight each other and then upload the footage.

They're producing and choreographing some of their own material.

They're allowed to be messy.

They're allowed to be horny.

They're allowed to be fucking people.

And instead of letting that marinate for five seconds, everyone is already trying to convince themselves that it's fake.

And I genuinely think that's a shame because this is exactly the direction I thought K-pop was heading in during third gen.

We were getting more self-producing idols.

More self-choreographing idols.

More idols who were allowed to talk like actual human beings.

They'd tell stories.

They'd talk about arguments.

They'd admit when they weren't close with someone.

They'd say, "Yeah, we're coworkers," instead of pretending every member was their soulmate.

They'd talk about dating.

They'd talk about friendships.

They'd share embarrassing stories.

They'd actually let us see different sides of their personalities.

And then K-pop became increasingly global, companies realized how profitable the fantasy was, and suddenly everyone became terrified again.

So we went right back toward first-gen levels of sanitization.

Male and female idols can't interact because someone might start a dating rumor.

Idols from the same company can't be seen together too often.

Dating becomes a scandal.

Everything has to be carefully curated.

The idol is your boyfriend.

The idol is your girlfriend.

The idol is accessible to you.

The idol loves you.

The idol would choose you.

And that shit gets dangerous because eventually people stop remembering that there is an actual human being underneath the branding.

And honestly, I think that's part of why situations like the current BTS controversy are so messy.

Because when you've spent years selling people the image of these perfect, morally flawless human beings who "love yourself" and "be kind" and "be a good person," people eventually forget that they're still just men.

They're going to have questionable opinions.

They're going to like problematic artists.

They're going to make dumb decisions.

They're going to do things you don't agree with.

And that's not necessarily evidence that everything they've ever said was a lie.

Sometimes it just means...

They're human.

And I actually think fandoms would handle these situations better if idols were allowed to be human from the beginning.

Because then you can look at something and go, "Yeah, that's a shitty decision. I'm disappointed."

Instead of acting like you've just discovered that your favorite idol is secretly Satan because he took a picture with an artist you don't like. Because as much as people want to complain y'all have to understand that a lot of Korean people and a lot of K-pop idols don't find people like Chris Brown or Kanye West problematic. Even if they are.

There's an opportunity here for K-pop to normalize adults being adults again.

Dating publicly.

Debuting grown people.

Letting idols have chaotic livestreams.

Letting them have real friendships.

Letting them disagree.

Letting them be messy.

Letting them show us parts of themselves without handing over their entire personality for public consumption.

And I think WAYF Boys are interesting because they seem to be sitting right in the middle of that.

They're not completely unfiltered because no celebrity is.

But they're also not giving me that ultra-polished, perfectly sanitized, "I have never experienced an emotion outside of happiness" idol persona.

They're giving me actual twenty-something men who happen to be celebrities.

And maybe that's why people are so uncomfortable with them.

Because we've gotten so used to K-pop idols being presented as characters that when somebody actually feels like a person, people immediately start asking:

"Okay, but what's the gimmick?"

Maybe the gimmick is that there isn't one.

Maybe they're just some chronically online dudes who like R&B and hip-hop, make music together, fight sometimes, thirst-trap, say dumb shit, make jokes, and happen to be in a K-pop group.

And honestly?

I kind of want to see where that goes.

I don't talk about k bands as much as I do idle groups even though fnc FT Island CN Blue and N.flying along with day6 were some of the reasons why I stuck with K-pop for so long.

But you're telling me that jype knew that their boy band had stalkers breaking into their home, following them and sticking GPS trackers onto their personal cars. They had complained about it it was stressing them out physically and mentally because they had to be on their toes to make sure someone wasn't following them. Had one incident where they drove a underage person who happened to be a fan and was hanging out with their friends mind you legal drinking age in Korea is like in Canada it's somewhere between like 19 and 20 International age. And they had been drinking so they decide to drive this person home. Ended up befriending the wrong person a mutual friend in their friend group vented to them after seeing all the hate them in their group was receiving online about their concerts mind you they pay $27 songs and the concerts lasted three and a half hours long but apparently some of the Asian fans were complaining about the visuals of the concert and not liking I'm assuming the set design even though it's like bitch they're a band not an idol group I don't know what you expect for a band to do outside of stand there playing instruments and singing.

Then this mutual friend decides to leak these text messages. And then turns around after the company announces that they kicked him out of the group basically and said I over exaggerated some of the claims that I made literally backtracked some of the shit that they said.

Because I don't think they thought that he would be getting kicked out of the group. And we're supposed to believe that these Korean companies actually give a damn about any of their artists.

Unfriendly reminder they don't. Jype is the lesser of four evils. 2pm debuted in 2008 they have never had legal action taken against any of their stalkers even though this group has dealt with. People breaking into their dorm and stealing their dirty used underwear and socks, people breaking to the dorm and taking pictures of them while they're sleeping in the dorm, sending or leaving bloody tampons and letters written in blood for the members, have followed them on personal vacations, the reason why people knew about Taec having a girlfriend before the company announced it is because the stalker fans had stalked him and then released pictures of him and his girlfriend. Of course hotness ignored it and then announced it to the company letting them know that someone was following him and then a few weeks to a month later is when he came out and publicly announced that he had a non celebrity girlfriend and ask people to respect their privacy.

GOT7 had two members consistently have to move their apartments several times in 2 months because stalkers kept finding out where they were living after they moved out of the dorms. The only person they told were their parents and the company. Youngjae had a stalker show up to his apartment with the key he happened to have hired a cleaning lady / dog sitter to watch CoCo at the time so she became aware when the key was turning cuz she didn't think you should be back yet she had his schedule and sure enough with some random woman she had never seen before and she had a feeling this person wasn't supposed to be there but she pretended like she knew who they were because they were claiming to be youngjae's girlfriend and then as soon as she went into his room the lady called 119 and the police showed up and arrested her. Again the only people who knew he lived there was his family members the cleaning lady who worked for the company jype and the company itself so clearly someone from the companies out there and leaked his address they did nothing about it he complained about it he actually went online to complain about it to the fans and then had to delete those complaints because the company made him do it but never took legal action. He also was one of the members who had the worst situation with his phone number he had to change it five times in 2 weeks because it kept getting leaked and he even stated that he didn't tell anyone he had a new phone number except for the company just to prove that someone at the company was leaking his phone number and they never did anything about it. Which means for 2 weeks his parents and his members did not have his new phone number they did not know how to contact him on that and somehow bitches still got his number when the only people who knew it was jype employees.

This company has literally done fuck off for any of their artists and the fact that they're now taking the leader and drummer of a band. This is not a K-pop group it's a band a band can survive technically speaking without like an extra guitarist or a keyboardist but they cannot survive without a base lead guitar and drummer let alone their leader. Who also happens to be one of their main lyricists and producers.

And all of this primarily because Asian fans were complaining when they found out about it mind you this is only been out for like a little over 24 hours. They didn't even try to like defend him or try to sit there and explain what was happening they just unanimously decided to take him out and he said so he actually sent one last bubble message after they announced his departure where he explained everything in detail he was like yes I shouldn't have used the words I used mind you I would be absolutely canceled as a K-pop Idol because me and my Asian cousins call each other chinks when we're arguing me and my black cousins call each other the n word I have a great aunt where she calls everyone in the family the n-word that's just how she speaks to people, I call my friends bitches and sluts and I call dumb people dumb birds and yes a bird is slang and is misogynistic slang for women with small brains. So I would be canceled so fucking fast because I use all of them misogynistic slaying AKA slut whore bitch might as well throw me in prison.

But all because he trusted someone who was a mutual friend of his non celebrity friend group they've been talking and he thought they got really close over the course of 3 weeks and then that person decided to turn around and snitch on him to some Anonymous person who decided to put all the shit on Twitter and for what?

Mind you this is a man who had a scholarship and was going to Berkeley music college okay do you know how hard it is to get into Berkeley college of music let alone on a scholarship and he gave that bitch up. He gave up his dreams that he had in college like he still went and he still eventually graduated but not for the degree that he initially went for or what he wanted to do because of the fact that he ended up getting scouted and being able to debut in a band. And I think it's crazy the people who are like oh well he also talked to some shit about the members again me my cousins and my siblings we get to argue all the time my younger half siblings from my mom's side we legit be going ham I'm talking bar for bar going back and forth throwing all of the racial slurs and misogynistic terms that we possibly can at each other when we're fucking pissed off. Like I said some of the shit that I have said would get me super canceled if I was a K-pop Idol because there'd be some freaking text messages leaked where I would be like "yeah that ch***y N***a is so fucking annoying I wish he'd just go jump to the Hudson and drown" and it'll be me talking about my little brother because he's out there and like broke some shit or fucking over spent money when I told him he could use my credit card.

My career before it began and then some people some of the fans were more caught up over the fact that this 28-year-old man had an ex-girlfriend because initially the rumors was his ex-girlfriend sat there and sent all this shit in which again even if that was the case he's almost 30 and he's in a rock band I'm sorry but you know that the bitches are throwing themselves at him. On top of that why would you believe anything in ex-girlfriend says without proof that's my whole thing without proof.

Like that crazy actress bitch who was out here exposing the fact that she was in a relationship with jimin at one point regardless of how you feel about it at least she had receipts. She had proof she had like audio video and pictures of her at his place and that the two of them were actually in a relationship. If you are on the China side of the internet there's one bitch I forgot her name but she was out here fucking all of the male celebrities in China and she exposed every single one of them including luhan who happened to have been in a relationship at the time the two of them would have been hooking up with each other. And again she had a receipts she came through with the text messages the weibo chats, photos, videos hell this bitch has articles of clothing and accessories they left over at her house to prove that she was sleeping with all of them they were all getting the nookie nookie from the same girl.

But this was some Anonymous person who just shared screenshots and like one voice memo and it was in the voice memo where he said a derogatory misogynistic term which really would be the equivalent of calling someone a bird brained bitch like that's the only way I feel like you could properly translate that into English it'd be the equivalent of basically calling someone a bird brain bitch about stalkers Who air tagged his car and followed him who broke into their dormitory on multiple occasions. I would have called them a hell of a lot worse.

As sad as it is I think that these companies aren't going to do shit about stalkers and kicking out members because of them talking shit about stalkers. It's only going to make them even more powerful it's going to make the stalkers think that they could literally get away with anything because that's what's being proven to them. They're going to up their antics and that's the worst thing that could possibly happen. Allowing for them to keep getting away with breaking and entering hitting illegal GPS or air tags on people's personal cars following them around it's going to lead to someone taking it too far and legitimately murdering an idol.

Holy shit what the fuck has been happening in kpop?!?

You have the Mina situation which is horrible and I've already seen people trying to sweep it under the rug because of their comeback which is ridiculous. First of all YouTube videos are starting to be made about it that have nothing to do with Kpop fans so these are like normal people or people who normally cover like tragedies or things that happen in asia, they do deep dives into certain situations or talk about things like cyberbullying and all that other shit so the fandom trying so hard to erase what happened is it going to work and it's going to make it look even worse. I don't trust the company.

BeLift say saying nothing and staying silent on all of this actually would make sense. For two reasons that people keep overlooking reason number one there's a high possibility that they're already in contract negotiation talks and none of them are trying to resign with the company and when I say that I don't necessarily mean like they're not trying to resign as a group they might be trying to sign as a group but have their solo contracts with other companies. There's also possibility that maybe they're just so fed up they don't want to sign with the company again at all they'd rather start over as a group with a new name and everything if they have to AKA pulling a highlight or Artemis.

Which leads to number two which is they're purposely trying to ruin their reputation. By saying nothing about the tragedy because they really could just give a basic as PR statement like what happened to this fan was tragic we do not want people to cyber bully on behalf of the artist or company we do not condone those actions. May this fan rest in peace right something as simple as that basic ass fuck but it would do a whole lot more than staying quiet is. But if they're perfectly trying to ruin the guys so that it's either harder for them to leave or when they leave it'll be harder for them to reestablish themselves as a group because people are going to remember hey you know two years ago or a year and a half ago before your contract was over with that company what if your biggest fan sites died because your fans decided to cyber bully her to death even during the live stream when she decided to commit suicide they were still sitting there and dragging her while she was literally standing there dying in front of them. I don't know if I want to sit there and be a fan of you anymore like there's been a grand Exodus on shirt and platforms of the fandom and it's the good fans that are leaving and that's scary cuz basically they're becoming a army 2.0 where it doesn't matter what happens or what their artist might end up doing they're going to defend the company and the group like their life depends on it and that is scary.

Why does it seem like Mark Lee is in a weird situationship with his new manager / has joined a religious cult?

Like I feel bad and I'm genuinely scared for him because it's one thing if you like left your company and decided to like you know reconnect a little bit more with your religion your spirituality that's fine I'm a spiritual person I grew up in a multi-religious household I don't care about that but I also happen to have family members who have been part of cults.

I have a family member through marriage who was part of a Jehovah Witness cult. I have a family member who is in ex Scientologist and one of my neighbors who happens to also be really good friends with my aunt is an ex-mormon so I have met and interacted with people who have been part of religious cults they have talked in detail about what that looks like the things that can happen and I've watched a lot of deep dives and Doc you series about cults and religious cults. Personally I've done this because I have an addictive personality I don't know if that's an official diagnosis. But that is something that I have been hearing from my doctor since I was a child because they always try to warn my parents and my grandparents when I lived with them about this.

My addictive personality along with my ADHD means that I can get very very into things like Super hyper focus it takes over my entire life and personality. I think I've briefly touched on this I might talk about it deeper but that's something that happened with me with K-pop at some point when I was a teenager during my 15 and 16 year old years of living. Like it was really bad I knew so many facts about so many groups that was really into I had entire binders with a bunch of spreadsheets and shit that was just printed out about these groups and these artists like it was borderline almost stalking behavior but never quite got there for two reasons one I was never super that into it as much as I like K-pop and two I realize what I was doing and I stopped I took a short break for like 6 months came back and then was even more detached from like the artist and their personalities then I already was in the first place.

Because of this I try to make sure that I knew everything I can about things that I would be even more vulnerable to than the average person which included things like Cults. Which is why everything that I've seen so far that's happened with Mark is raising all of the red flags.

First off this man I forgot his name cuz he's that irrelevant he was kind of a little bit problematic in the first place when he was working at SM mind you he also worked at SME so he's been around mark for a while which would make it even easier to sit there and indoctrinate him into a religious cult. He was the one who had Mark go on that trip which was actually a religious trip I forgot was y'all call them where they go to like what they considered less privileged places missionary that's what it was it was actually a missionary trip. That was paid for and done through that man's Church and now they have him living with the dude in his house and has been for several months in Jersey instead of getting his own place while also going with him to church and helping him take care of his two children like that's a little questionable. And then the fact that there's been quite a few NCT fans that are Mark fans who have been bringing up like other things that have been weird about this man from the beginning how he always hyper fixated on mark, how he has so many pictures and videos on a social media even before he became marks like main manager and left with him where Mark is like always somewhere there how he likes to mention Mark all of the fucking time consistently like to use his songs like at this point I'm confused on if this man was possibly sent to recruit him in the first place? Like you have to understand if there's something that a lot of religious cults specifically like to do is having celebrity who are part of their religion so they can convince normal people who are fans of those celebrities to drawing you know like Tom Cruise with Scientology, the Masterson Brothers before you know Danny went to jail for the shit he did to all those women they were also used to advertise Scientology cuz that's what they're part of. That white lady from the handmaid's tale I forgot her name but people some don't know but she's also a Scientologist and at the beginning of her career she used to kind of talk about it vaguely to try and you know get people interested so they would want to join her religious cult.

It is a tactic as old as time they try to get the rich and the famous and those who are in the public light so that they can get more normal for lack of a better word disciples. It is genuinely terrifying and scary.

That being said I do think the the funnier rumors is apparently this man might be divorced from his wife so him having Mark live with him kind of like his little house husband as apparently he's doing things around the house for this dude and taking care of his daughter's part-time like taking him to school taking them up doing things with them. Which is also kind of a little creepy to certain extent again this is a grown ass man who I'm assuming is significantly older than Mark as in he should probably be in his mid to late 30s. Who now has someone who works with him and who he works for living in his house even if this wasn't a cult situation would it feels like it's still a really weird situation that has really weird implications no matter how you look at it.

Mark is the boss of his own Entertainment company he decided to take this man with him to be his full-time manager. Mark has decided he's basically stated that he wants to have a home base in America and a home base in Korea there is no reason why he shouldn't have bought his own property in Jersey it's actually really unprofessional on top of being weird that instead he's living with his employee who is significantly older than him and at one point was in charge of him at his old company along with his children and possibly wife in their house. That is very concerning you don't have to be a child to be groomed you can be a grown ass adult and still have an older adult groom you and that's kind of what this is starting to feel like a little bit. Cuz either that man and his wife are trying to use him for free labor if they're still together and if the rumors that his wife is gone is true and again it's not just a religious cult thing then there's also the possibility of him seeing Mark as like a good Cash cow and manual laborer so he's trying to convince him like we are your family we're so close oh look how much I care about you and for you and blah blah blah so that he can keep him living with him as like a free Nanny and cash cow and shit which is again still really weird.

Like and what kills me is people who are saying you can't sit there and say he might be part of a cult because then that dissolves him of the whole federate Confederate flag situation and it's like no it doesn't. You could sit there and do some shit like that and still be held accountable even if you did it while being with a cult because you should have known better and you should have spoken out and said no I can't do that. Or I should apologize instead of ignoring it since allegedly there's a possibility that his manager I think his name is David convinced him not to sit there and say anything which is wild. But also it would make sense first of all I didn't know he was that close he's literally just over the river. As I stated here I have two residences that I live in one that I own and oh yeah I did move into the other place at least partially. I'll talk about that in a different update. But because of that the old apartment that my grandmother left me I'm very close to Jersey like you could see the Jersey bridge from my building if I look across from my balcony it is the palisade mountains. Like Jersey is right there and I'm aware of the weird religious right-winged cult ure that is currently happening in America and New York state is no different it's also happening here it's just not as bad because of the fact that there happens to be more pocs who do not want to be white adjacent. But because of this I 100% could see this being a cult my older step sister recently I had talked to her for the first time in a few months and she was talking about how she hadn't been talking to us because of one getting help for her daughter who has autism and she started a new job but also she ended up making a friend at her new job who wanted her to come with her to church and basically she almost got dragged into a cult until she realized oh no this is a cult and she realized that because her father and her other stepmom not my mom we're in a cult at one point when she was a kid and she got out of there as soon as she graduated and called up her ex stepmom AKA my mom and was like hey can I move to New York with you and stay for a few months because my mom and dad are part of a cult and they're trying to get me to marry one of the cult leaders children.

And then you have the shorties arguing with whatever the name of the fandom for that new boy group's going to be called. Because they feel as if they copied them and it's weird as hell because at the end of the day no offense to Lngshot I like them but they're going to look like a bad imitation compared to Wayf boys just off of the sheer fact that three out of the five members actually grew up in America and Canada they actually had access to authentic hip hop and R&B and the culture that they borrow from. They're not being taught by a nigga boo and having that be their CEO to come out with this concept and do all this shit like I don't like Jay Park because of that one fact and you can never convince me that he's grown from it because he hasn't shown any growth.

Him deciding to go ahead and open his mouth on the internet to fight after one of the boys sat there and was like hey I didn't copy no one and then their CEO was also telling them we weren't copying anybody. Just for Jay to come out and be like the blueprint bitch the blueprint is Black culture it is not you or your group.

And the crazy thing is out of the three boy groups currently that we have doing this concept Wayf from pre debut to now feels the most authentic and again I'm not saying that I don't think the other two groups don't actually enjoy the culture and the music I think they do. But I mean in terms of probably having a better understanding of hip hop and R&B the fact that they have consistently shared snippets of them covering jazz songs R&B songs talking about the artist that they like. Even their debut song even though I feel like it is a bit more water down than it probably should be.

Shouting out ASAP Rocky basically with one of the lines saying fuck you to ice and all that that they've done that is more hip hop adjacent than anything the other groups have come out with in terms of what they're actually talking about partially in the song like yeah they're all so still sitting there and playing on like you know we get bitches AKA we got shawties and the other ones don't and I think that's also stupid because I don't think some people understand that shawty's is slang people sitting there saying that they were dissing Lngshot by saying that they have Shorty's and the other ones don't is stupid because that is a slang word before it was the fandom name, them getting mad at them for calling out idle rappers is dumb as hell because even groups like BTS have called out other Idol wrappers it wasn't necessarily them taking shots at specific groups or artists it's them stating a fact most people who learn how to rap after joining a company aren't really into rap they're not into the culture they're not into the genre they're doing what their company told them to do. There's nothing weird about calling them out there's been many rappers in K-pop who genuinely like rap who have called out other Idol wrappers in general not specific people just a generalization of like call yourself a rapper but like you don't even know anything about rap kind of vibes.

Also unsurprisingly have already seen some of the people calling them out for being old the oldest member is literally like 21 or 22 and the youngest members 20 and the fact that you still have people out here trying to say that they're old and I've seen some people talking about how they're not attractive and they're washed up and that's why they couldn't debut fans are only in it for the aesthetic and the physical attraction they have to idols because they're talented I would actually sit there and say that some of the members of that group especially the singers from what I've heard of I believe is Samuel and Anderson or something like that they have them R&B Jazz vocals they sound better than a lot of these K-Pop singers out there and I think it helps that they actually had time to one discover the music that they like and to get a better understanding of their voice and their vocal cords especially as guys where your voice changes via puberty and the way you sound and the way you sing changes drastically from that time to you being an adult and then debuting as an adult rather than as a teenager.

I follow at least four different black or black mixed creators who make content on fashion right like their whole aesthetic is like hyperfam girly Asian fashion vibes. And they happen to be cap offense right two of them are actual genuine fans of groups like BTS or stray kids and the rest of them are just like casual listeners right but the thing is the even the two that are actual fans of those groups are casual listeners to other groups right if it has nothing to do with the groups that they're into they're not paying attention to it.

And that's where I feel like it gets dangerous because you now have a bunch of people who have entered the K-pop scene with the mentality that is ran similar to the western music industry. They're not going in there and learning about the industry that they're consuming content from. They're not paying attention to the fact that no Kpop idols and actors/actresses being single or not talking about dating isn't because they're more private or because Korea is a more conservative country it's because them not being seen as available could literally ruin their careers. No artists aren't always seen out and about having fun or interacting with each other or drinking even though they're grown ass adults not because again privacy but because their image is tied to the company and the group so much so that them doing anything remotely human that the fandom and the people who appreciate them don't agree with can cause them to be canceled to have funeral reefs sent to the company and people burning their albums and photo cards in the streets. They cannot just leave their companies or end a contract.

They're not in control of their social media accounts same way of Western artists they just can't go on to social media and decide without letting someone at the company know that they want to go live. They can't sit there and share behind the scenes moments that their company didn't approve of they're not able to sit there and go online and complain about the fact that the company isn't treating them right or that they want to come out with music but they can't because the company's preventing them from doing so something that Western artists have done before and do sometimes when they're not always on best terms with their own company. They can't do that they can't openly talk about conflicts or issues they might have with their company they can't talk about certain members that are put on hiatus or removed from a group even if they didn't want it to happen or allegedly the company says they had to say in it they can't even mention these motherfuckers like they're voldemort.

That's not just oh that's an individual thing that these people decided on no that is an industry rule. The rules of K-pop are completely different from western music industries. They have so many things they're just not allowed to do.

But with the influx of people during the pandemic who became fans of K-pop just appearing. Deciding that hey this sounds cool I'm going to join in and listen to this but then learned nothing about the industry it makes it like a really weird space to be in now if that makes sense.

I am going to ramble now you can just skip this until you see the pink text again.

The K-pop industry was at a really good spot in my opinion before the pandemic. They had enough of a global reach and enough of a western audience primarily made up of Asians born outside of Asia and a lot of pocs primarily and again this isn't the only ones but from what I've experienced and seen a lot of the black brown and Hispanic / Spaniard adjacent communities. Right you didn't have as much of the white community or as much of like the European community when I say white I'm talking about white Americans and Canadians and shit like that. They weren't as into K-pop right and the ones that were into K-pop were already considered outliers by society right they were the weird ones in high school and college they they were the kids that people kind of was like you're doing something about you and I feel like that's why it worked.

Because you didn't have the ones where it's like oh yeah I like this thing and it's a huge part of like my life or my hobbies or whatever it is. And I'm going to make it something that like everyone has to know about and everyone has to hear about and use it to garnish some kind of clout or social standing.

It was more along the lines of I enjoyed this this is fun I'm going to learn what I need to learn about it. That's it. And because of that it also made changes start to happen right there was more conversations about how weird it is that companies can have middle school and high school kids just drop out of school to be trainees full-time because they couldn't go to school on time and so many idols who never even graduated and had to wait years later to get a ged. There was more conversations about stalking and how bad it was and there were more petitions and people protesting and boycotting until companies did something about the stocking situation. There was a push for idols to be able to be human and for companies to stop trying to make them use perfect beings like they can't date they can't talk about falling in love doing x y and z. And I feel like it made sense because yeah it might have been a slow change but it was a change that was happening all of a sudden there was talks about making laws to make stalking illegal there was talks about laws getting put into place to prevent companies from having underage artists drop out of school there were things that were starting to be put into place to change the industry for the better without getting rid of what the industry still technically was. They weren't trying to make music that was just for like the international ear they weren't trying to take the Korean out of k-pop.

And then it became more globalized and things started going backwards. Like I don't think some people realize that we were getting to a point where idols dating was becoming more normalized and then that shit went back like 20 years. All of a sudden you now had a bunch of international fans who yes people seem to forget that even Western fans really do like the fantasy of being able to date their favorite celebrity like there's a reason why that I was kidnapped or adopted by One direction fanfictions were not only a thing but fucking huge for several years and why every time one of those men were seen to be dating someone they have a huge chunk of their fandom to be so upset and then bash the hell out of their partners.

Now you just giving them an entire industry where the norm is artist pretending like they're single or not talking about dating or seeing people so of course the company's double down on that shit now they're even more double down on yeah no they don't date they date nobody. It's the same with like people talking about queer baiting yeah the company's kind of double down on shipping within the companies themselves with certain members because of the fact that now you had an entire new wave of people coming into Kpop who refused to learn anything about the industry and they will look upset with the idea that these two people could be queer or not because again that's something they're just not allowed to talk about which is interesting cuz again there was a change there. We had more male and female idols coming out as bisexual we had more male and female idols giving hints that they weren't necessarily straight or talking about being on like the non-binary Spectrum in terms of the way they like being seen or addressed or dressing and then like that kind of just fucking disappeared again because now it was like oh no we can't start being progressive. We have to cater to be specific types of fans who are unaware who are naive who are willing to just take what we tell them.

We were getting better at the age thing I don't think people realize that. We had an entire era of K-pop right before and right during / after where companies were giving older people a chance. We got k to debut in a group even if it's a J-pop group but it is a Korean based J pop group. Girl group two boys and I believe there were even two bands that were debuted under mid size companies or subsidary companies of the bigger companies we're all of the members were 21 and above. We were starting to move in the right direction and then the new wave of people came in and the companies went we can go back to debuting children matter of fact we could double down and just debut nothing but underage minors fully in these groups because the international fans would eat this up they'll love it.

You had more adult and teen fans defending a bunch of young minors debuting because they genuinely thought that the K-pop music industry was better than the western music industry and didn't understand things like trainee or idle debt. They didn't understand things like no these kids don't have a say in the type of music they come out with. Ooh they have a credit in helping write the lyrics You do know that the company could just tell them give us one line one word and then put them down as part of the lyric team just so people will stop questioning how full of innuendos their music is how questionable some of the songs are coming out with is. Like some songs I get it right you can mistake them like new jeans is Cookie I can see how someone can mistake that for being a more sexual song when it's not. But then you have songs like macaroni and cheese where there is no way in hell you can take mac and cheese and not see that song for being filled with induendos the lyrics the way they're saying certain things like they're clearly talking about sex even though it's a group of teenage girls.

Enhypen I like the group I cannot listen to them when they first debuted because you can't look at a song like drunken days or fever and not see the sexual undertones to it and it's weird because nowadays people literally be like yeah fever is clearly about that heat or mating season that vampires would go through where they're just hot and horny and it's like you do understand that like the youngest members were like 14 15 to like maybe 17 at the time. That's fucking weird and then and again I'm not blaming the fans who point this out and I'm not blaming the members but you can't be surprised that as soon as Nikki turned fucking 18 people were out here absolutely sexualizing the shit out of that man because his company has been doing it since he was 14 but the fans ignored it.

I was a casual listener of theirs up until probably pass the mic I think that's when I really kind of became more of an actual fan of theirs rather than just a casual listener. But up until that point I still would occasionally watch fan-made guys I watched fan-made videos right cuz I like watching videos of idols funny moments or like iconic moments even if I'm not a fan of groups. Cuz a lot of the accounts that I follow are multifans so they'll have things for groups that I do like and then groups that I don't really pay attention to so I'll still watch those videos cuz I like the people who make videos so like I'll give you my view.

That being said it was very obvious how much this company kind of pushed him in terms of wanting him to have this war which were sexy image even though he was the youngest member. It was especially obvious when he was around like 16 and the voice dropped. And like you have to understand as a teenager you want to be seen as mature sometimes that does translates wanting to be seen as desirable and sexy like I might be an adult now but I remember when I was a teenager. When I was 16 and like puberty really hit me like a fucking killer in the back the fuck up and hit me a second time just to be sure. My body became more curvy I had more boobs and ass I was looking good as hell I'm telling you all of a sudden I was out here wearing Victoria's Secret push-up bras any kind of semi low-cut shirt I could my jeans look painted on. I enjoyed it when I would be in school and I could hear the guys behind me specially if they were seniors or I thought they were hot talking about wow look at her ass is so perfect that is literally something I would hear a few times when I was a teenager in high school because I would dress a certain way because I wanted to be desirable.

So I would never blame A K-pop Idol who's a teenager going through puberty in the public eye and decide they want to feel that way they want to come off that way they don't want the fans to see them as the baby anymore as the little kid anymore. Hell I remember going through that and then watching as fellow idols the same age as me like the freaking Bambam, Yugyeom, Jungkook's started going through their phase of wanting to no longer be seen as like the little kid. As they sat there and started most of them it was more along the lines of when they were like 17 to 20 starting to trying to look more adultish and by the time they hit like 23 it was over. They were like yeah see how hot I am and it's like yeah I get that. Like 16 all the way up until like your early twenties I feel like most people's 21 to 22 you kind of want to be seen a certain way you want to be perceived a certain way and then you kind of start realizing how society works and then you kind of take a step back from that cuz you're like yeah people are going to see me however the fuck they want to see me regardless. But also ew I might not be receiving the type of attention that I actually want and desire instead I might be receiving the attention of people I'm not interested in so you take a step back from doing that. But that's if you're a normal person if you're a K-pop Idol and everyone has always seen you as the baby for so long I feel like you kind of just double down on that shit. You double down even more on no look how sexy I am look at all of these shirtless pictures of me look at me in my itty bitty crop top and shorts look how hot I am.

And to a degree it sucks because you also know the company's pushing it. You know damn well the company sitting there like yeah we want you to be the very desirable and we want you to come off XY and z type of way we need you to come off this way so we could sell you as a product to a very specific crowd of people.

And the thing is if you are a genuine K-pop fan who decided to learn about the industry because it is so intertwined with the music and the artist you would know that for years people have been trying to fight that because of how fucking weird it is. They've been trying to fight the whole idea of these young artists having to debut or having all these minors with really weird creepy concepts or really weird outfits. Oh cool this is just a fun choreography where they're like hopping and dancing around and they're using a bouncy ball or medicine ball. Yeah you're right it could be seen that way except you also have to look at the fact that you're talking about companies that purposely with sexualize the youngest members now having a whole group of young primarily teenage barely 20 year old girls in short skirts and short shorts bouncing on a medicine ball in a country where the highest genre of porn they like to watch is underage girls or girls who look like teenagers fucking grown men and you think that that wasn't done on purpose or that that wasn't done with alternative meaning. Like you either have to be really young or ignorant.

Like no people aren't trying to ruin the fun in Kpop after asking for it back but if you've been in Kpop fan long enough or you actually took time to learn about the industry you would know about all the other older idols who either chose to retire or become actors or some of them straight up just became normal salary men and women.

But they talked about their time as K-pop idols they talked about how they had no say in the outfits that they wore how some of them found some of these fun choreographies or things they wanted to do questionable. AOA right their youngest member I forgot how to spell her name she was like 16 when they debuted and they had some pretty questionable last songs that they had heard sitting here dancing to dress like the rest of the girls right I'm pretty sure when heart attack and mini skirt came out she was under 18 or had just turned 18 for one of them. And they had her on stage in these short mini skirts and dresses in these high heels in these booty shorts and crop tops doing very sexy choreography and it was so easy to forget how young she was. Even if you yourself were younger than her and a teenager or close to her in age you also forgot how young she was because they made her look so much older in terms of the choreography and stuff they had her doing. Like I don't think people understand you can 100% mistake a teenager if you pay them in the right outfits and makeup for being in there twenties.

Like the weird vibe people get about aging is funny as hell because we have K-pop idols who are in their thirties that with the right makeup and dressing look like they're in their early to mid-20s you can have a K-pop Idol or even a normal person in their twenties with the right makeup and outfits look like they're teenager it's not as hard as you think right it's kind of when people complained about the Sims 4 teenagers and young adults looking the same that's because that's what it looks like in real life. Once you hit puberty if you kept your mouth shut and you dressed a certain way and did your makeup and hair certain way you 100% can pass as a college student. It is not as hard as you think it is.

Just like there's a reason why you could have a super senior who's like fucking 20 years old and still a senior in high school and people would believe that they are a senior in high school and wouldn't second guess the fact that that's a grown ass adult because you can be 20 and still look like you belong in the 16 to 18 crowd.

That's why people are concerned with how many groups or debuting with everyone's a minor yeah it was normal for one or two members to be underage and even then the average age was like 16 17 for the youngest member. Like people be mentioning motherfuckers like Taemin and jungkook and it's like they were the outliers. Like I don't think y'all understand most 97 liners that debuted debuted after BTS you weren't having fucking 14/15 year old debuting in a lot of these groups. When Got7 debuted the youngest members were 16/17 I know because I'm the same age as them. When 17 debuted very youngest members who are wanted 2 years younger than me were again 16 17 because I was 18 when that group debuted. That was the average age of the youngest member 16 being the absolute youngest anything younger than that was an outlier.

That's why when you have these casual K-pop fans and listeners joining in and they're like oh yeah but we saw that taemin, jungkook, BOA, IU the old debuted when they were like 14 they were the outliers there were a bunch of 14-year-olds debuting in second and third gen as much as some of y'all want to believe or they weren't.

But you would know that if you took like 5 minutes to actually look into like the history of the K-pop industry like yeah they debuted Young folks but they weren't that young. They had to be appealing still and most of their teenage fans were between the ages of 16 to 18 so it made no sense to go younger than that. And it's kind of wild to think that now you have groups for the youngest members debut at like 15 going on 16 and they're the outlier because they're considered older. I saw someone talking about the other day when they were like they were so surprised at how old Louie was from Lngshot because most K-pop idols nowadays he's like the same age as part of like the older or middle-aged members in a group and I was like that is true that is wild. Are 20 they were born in 2006 and people were talking about how weird that was to have 20-year-olds debut do you know how fucked we have to be that people think 20 year olds debuting is kind of old.

The youngest member in BND is 20. And they debuted what like 3 or 4 years ago when he was like 16. And to think that that is now considered like an outlier that's weird to be the youngest member and debuting at like 16. It makes me want to rip my hair out.

But this also makes sense because this is what the companies want and I think that's where the danger comes in.

Because if the companies can now have a bunch of fans come into the fandoms and come into the genre of music and their biggest issue is picking who your favorite member is and they're not paying attention to like the companies the history of some of these companies things that are happening with these artists and companies. That means the corporation can get away with a lot more shit.

Enhypen they're a great example I feel like they're always going to be one of my example for boy groups because their company be shit really shows you what you can get away with. Long time K-pop fans who also happen to be fans of this group have been talking about boycotting so that the boys can have a proper rest cuz they've been overworked so hard. They talk about the logistics of it they'll explain to you why it works because again they've been a part of the K-pop fandoms and they know how the industry works better than anyone else yet because their group The debuted during the pandemic and have a lot of newer fans that were not K-pop fans that just stumbled upon their survival show and the group they don't get that. So they're fighting against them.

They're telling you that it's a horrible thing to boycott the company and the boys because then they'll have no leverage when it comes to like contract renewal and it's like y'all don't understand contracts renewals in East Asia do not work the same as they do in Western culture. In America and Canada and Europe if you become really big and you're doing numbers and you know you're popular you have more power against your company. You're allowed to be like see this is the money I'm bringing in these are the fans I'm bringing in these are my terms and conditions. It's kind of the opposite.

If the company feels as if they have to overwork you in order for you to keep up your fandom and to keep up your momentum that's not a good thing it just means they're going to overwork you more. What you need is a solid fan base right a fan base that would be willing to do something like boycotting but also who shows that they're serious about the group. Not the company the group they're willing to sit there and sacrifice a concert or a tour if it means they're artists can rest. They're willing to boycott and demand changes from the company into the company gives it to them. That proves to the company that they need the artist not the other way around. That if their group left dear fandom will leave with them.

Be shit over working the hell out of this boy group and having them be on tour for over 400 Days and the fandom complaining but never doing anything complaining and then selling out the tour tickets complaining and then buying tickets for the next concert and World Tour that they announced 2 days after their legendary 400 plus Day Tour just finished.

That proves that the fandom cares more about the quantity of content that they get rather than the quality or the health of their artists. That the company can basically do whatever they want treat them however they want as long as they dangle something nice and shiny in front of their fans their fans will be docile and basically playing to the company's hands and you might be like no they wouldn't yes it would.

They tested it out with the tour right even when we literally had footage from behind the scenes of the members covered in pain patches barely able to move. When we had literal fan cams of certain artists all that stage crying because of how much pain they were in. And the fans still couldn't sit there and actually boycott they still Force those men on those stages while being in excruciating pain because they can't say no to their companies that's how K-pop contracts work. Because the fandom wanted that dopamine hit so badly. And then the company was able to kick out a member and again the fandom is just allowing it to happen yes there are people who are fighting against it now but it's also shown to the company and to fans when you look at it and they're coming goal is not the artist. They're common goal for a lot of them is that dopamine hit is having content to watch is being entertained regardless of how many members they have that are entertaining them regardless of how injured or hurt the members get for entertaining them they don't care as long as they stay in entertained.

That is an issue but it's one that was bound to happen when a majority of their fan base are first time K-pop fans who refused to learn anything about the Korean entertainment industry. Like the amount of K-pop fans that I've seen now or people who claim to be came out fans that are so unaware of like the dark side of the entertainment industry and the shady shit that these companies are willing to do and you're like not my company cuz my group is treating no your company too and your group to you're just not realizing it because they're not doing the super big bad things they're doing the micro bad things. The amount of groups where it's like oh my group isn't on a diet have you not noticed how small your group members are the way they talk about eating the way they don't actually eat anything when they're supposed to be eating stuff and they're just pushing around yes your company's most likely giving them some form of eating disorder a lot of companies do that a lot of older idols have talked about having to deal with eating disorders because of their companies. That didn't stop they just stop talking so adamantly about dieting or they have their artists talk about how dieting is bad and you shouldn't diet to the fans while simultaneously still having them have a set weight that they have to be because it's written in their contract.

Because yeah they're contracts are fucking insane we've had idols who've talked about the fact that will be written in their contract that they can't weigh over a certain amount like they can't be more than like a hundred pounds even if they're like fucking 5 ft 9 in tall. How it's in their contract that they always have to be crop top and mini skirt ready. For some of the male artists it's that they always have to be in shape enough that they are able to take their shirts off and have a six pack.

And even now it's written like that in some K-pop contracts they didn't get rid of it they just stop talking about it some idols talk about the fact that they're not even allowed to do anything to their hair without the company's permission and I'm not talking like oh you can't like cut your hair from like waist length to Bob or you can't dye your hair I mean like they can't even get a trim on their hair. They're not allowed to like retouch their bangs They can't put certain products in their hair without permission from their company.

Some contracts have it written that if the company tells them they have to get a procedure done they have to get a procedure done they can't be like no I don't want to sit there and get plastic surgery I don't want to sit there and get a nose job they have to because it's written in their contract. That's why I'm always like y'all it's dangerous to be a K-pop fan who refuses to actually learn about the industry and how everything is ran. Because then you start falling for all the propaganda and bullshit that the companies will push out.

And I genuinely think that's scary and the fact that there's now a huge chunk of K-pop fans where it's like the vast majority I'd say about 80% of them where that's exactly how they interactive K-pop they know nothing about the industry they know nothing about the history of the industry they refuse to listen to older fans and I'm not even talking age wise I'm just talking people who have been fans of K-pop longer than they have when they tell them I get that you think this is what's happening but that's not how it works in this industry. But they choose ignorance because ignorance is bliss is easy to overlook the fact that K-pop idols are nothing more than contracted slaves it is slave labor they basically get paid in pennies and dimes they are constantly in debt to these companies. HYBE & JYPE are great examples of this even when people don't want to admit it. The yellow company has three different groups currently who have all sat there and mentioned or talked about the fact that they still haven't gotten paid or they only just already got getting paid as a K-pop Idol and they're like 5 years in. They're still living off of their parents sending them allowance every month so they can buy their own food or sending them food and snacks from home. Because that's how in debt they are to the company that they're still not able to pay them back let alone get paid themselves. I believe it was day 6 and you have to understand well day 6 might not be huge internationally they're huge in Korea as a band and they have been for years and the members talked about how even though they were doing big shows in Korea and even a few in Europe as a band they were doing all these festivals and they were really popular they didn't start getting paid until their fifth or sixth year and like their first check was literally like 5 or 10 cents. Mind you this is a group Who currently is on their second contract and is selling out the only band in Korea and the second artist outside IU to sell out the Olympic stadium in South korea. Who have always been fairly popular and performing in all of these different places and they didn't really start getting paid until like their 5th Year as a band and their first paycheck was literal change.

Yet people want to sit here and still idolize the K-pop lifestyle and pretend like no if you're from a big or mid-sized company you're getting paid so well and the company treats you so and it's like no they don't. At the end of the day they still are just trying to make money off of them. They have to sell a fantasy so that the fans keep buying into it and giving them their money but like it's really dangerous.

That's why the new Jean situation is so scary that's why the situation with most of the artists under that company is so scary.

One why do half of these look green screened / Photoshop too why do they both look like this is a hostage situation what the fuck is up with those smiles. Like I'm not trying to be rude I have no clue who the fuck this white blonde woman is outside of the fact that apparently she's also a YouTuber but there's only two things that this is kind of reminding me of there is a really really well worded prenup and people forget that peanuts don't just protect the men if you're a woman you can be really smart with your peanuts okay and I would assume that she has a really really good prenup that's going to allow her if she survives one year or like four years or however many years cuz Mr Beast likes a challenge of her surviving in this relationship she gets like a quarter of his assets.

The second third fourth I don't even know what number I'm on this right here the fact that this is a week-long celebration that they're having for their wedding kind of proves that him trying to be like I'm so poor doesn't work. Even if some people are unaware that rich people have most of their money tied up in acids and trust funds and credit Unions rather than Banks and actual physical money you wouldn't be able to afford having a week-long celebration wedding without money. And I'm not saying that there's a higher chance and possibility because apparently they've been dating for a long time that part of the reason why they're getting married now because they're not that old I'm pretty sure Jimmy boy is actually either the same age as me or a year younger and yeah I know some people be like being in your late twenties is old it's really not on average where we're at currently in society and with the social economic way that the world is working on average most people aren't really getting married or having kids until they're in their 30s in the first place.

I just think the timing of it you know if I was dating a guy and he ended up getting to the point that Mr B Scott at and I sat there and had some form of faith in a really good lawyer and a prenup I too would tie the knot something I always tell people. And this is as someone who genuinely does like the idea of getting married one day you have to understand that getting married legally is not for love that is a contract.

I may be a part of me thinks this because again I come from a mixed social economic household and family where I know people who have been in the bottom of the barrel and those who are part of like the fucking 1%. But it is a contract and you better make sure that contract and that prenup is worded really well so that at the end of it all you get something out of it. Like genuinely speaking you just have to make sure that it's worded in a way where you know you could survive having to look at this person's face and deal with them for an x amount of years without cheating physically and you know you can do that and by the time that comes around if you really do get sick and tired of them when you dip you take a good portion of that money of those assets that you're not left High and dry. You make sure that you include shit if you're super fucking rich like spousal support you make sure you have shit tied and lock down that if y'all have children what they would have to do you know not oh you'll have to pay child support I'm talking you would have to make sure that our children can continue living the life that they have been born into. If we're out here having our kids being driven around and fucking Ferraris and going to like the most top private schools and they have an at-home chef and they're used to living in the lap of luxury it will be in the fucking prenup that if that's how we raise our kids if we get divorced you have to still pay for that lifestyle for our children. You introduce them to that world and you're going to keep having them in that world and if you're really smart you sit there and you make sure that all of this is included for until they're 21 and not 18 and it's included because you'll be like as long as they're in college and or university you are also legally obligated to pay for all or part of their education. You have to make sure that all your eyes are dotted and all your t's are crossed.

That being said I learned about this against my will I saw a short of someone talking about it because I was watching a vertical drama on YouTube and then was trying to see if I can find any more vertical drama Swatch and for me it's easier to just go through the shorts you'll find a short amount of vertical drama and then you just keep scrolling and you'll come across like seven more and they're all accounts that just post up vertical dramas.

But in between me doing that and subscribing to a couple of new accounts to keep my dopamine vertical drama addiction at peak level I saw like two different people doing shorts about mystery sweating and sharing pictures and I genuinely sat there and thought that this was fake. There's no way this is a real picture the one of them like doing the the dip where he's dipping her looks straight up green screen AI that doesn't even look like the two of them it looks like someone chopped his head off of a picture and then just like made it super sized and stuck it on top of some other dudes body.

So I was like there's no way in hell you're telling me that Mr beast and Taylor Swift do both decided to get married in July for some weird ass reason and then apparently the answer is yes yesterday they did. And I never thought I would say this but like how the fuck did Mr Beast and his wife now I guess have more decorum and a better wedding from my opinion and from what I've seen and from what people talked about then fucking Taylor Swift in her weird ass Gotti I'm going to sit here and make it annoying as hell for all New Yorkers in the middle of a heatwave so I can have this Grand wedding and invite a bunch of trump supporters in white supremacist. Like no offense I have not been a fan of or listen to Taylor Swift since her enchanted era because like that was Peak t Swift for me personally I even owned the perfume I still own two of like the little small sample bottles of that perfume because that's how much I like that perfume and I loved that era and I was actually still a teenager during the time.

But then I stopped being a teenager and realized how repetitive her music kind of was and also the fact that no offense to her. She seems to be the common denominator and issue in all of her relationships based off of her music alone and having like that much awareness to write music about it but also being so unself aware to the point you don't realize you're the problem and you might just need therapy it's a little off-putting personally. So I just like kind of soft listening to her it's also fun facts / FYI I don't really listen to a lot of pop music in general like K-pop is the outlier because if I am listening to pop music it's hyperpop okay it's what my grandmother used to like to call white trashy hyper pop right where it's like really raunchy it's trashy it's a little bit like questionable it's like why are you sitting here talking about snorting cocaine and dancing in the rain while sucking some dude's dick kind of raunchy hyper pop bullshit.

That's just the type of pop music that I gravitate towards more and I do think part of it is because I was exposed very early on to groups that I probably shouldn't have been. Like I remember being in middle school and one of my friends sat there and was like oh my God my older sibling listens to this band and it's so crazy and again I don't like the band the people in it are like fucking horrendous ass motherfuckers but this was like at the peak of warped Tour and shit like that when like that was actually really popular and it was like blood on the dance floor and bands of that caliber so it's like yeah I think it makes sense that this is the table pop music I'm into and then outside of that I only really listen to like R&B hip hop and rap to a certain extent and a lot of like just old school shit like you more likely listen to my playlist and it's 99.99% 80s and 90s music with the occasional 2010 thrown in there. Like Lady Gaga and Kesha were the holy grail for me in terms of like mainstream pop artists. Katy Perry was all right.

Anyway back to like what I'm talking about here. I didn't know this was happening and it it's a surprise to me because like it shouldn't be now that I think about it. I've watched a few people do like deep dives into Mr Jimmy whatever the fuck his last name is whitey MC white white rich boy and outside of the fact that he clearly has issues. And the fact that he is about as entertaining and has the personality of soggy white bread from everything I've seen and the only people he should be appealing to really is just like children and maybe some of his fellow like white people. I forgot that when people are rich anything goes you know people will forgive them like who cares that he's not there and decided to open up a amusement park in a country that still has slavery, that you're not allowed to record anything when you go there and that even the prizes and stuff that you can win is questionable along with like the fact that you have to sign a waiver because you could end up getting immensely injured who cares that he did that and I'm pretty sure that shit failed within like the first two three months, who cares if he's out there and decided to come out with multiple rip-offs of things that already existed like that one game that was really fucking popular in the late early 2000s and beginning of the 2010s where you would collect the little figurines and you put them in that game thing and you fight with them I remember that I didn't play the game has for that I don't know what the fuck it's called. I'm also pretty sure he kind of ripped off Skylanders too, who cares if he ripped off lunchables and then it was so bad that it had actual mold growing in it you never catch that in a fucking lunchables that's for sure. Who cares about his fake philanthropy that has been proven multiple times at some of the things he says he does is in over exaggeration or he doesn't actually do any of that in the first place, the fact that 90% of his so-called good faith and I'm doing it to help people really is just him creating the squid games IRL and he's been doing this shit longer than this good game says actually been around but no one questioned it, who cares is his entire career is built questionably so because he was just obsessed with becoming super popular because clearly he was a loser little freak when he was like high school or some shit and he just had to sit there and be like no I could be the popular Rich joc guy. I'm going to sit there and I'm going to become that stereotype of the kid that no one truly paid attention to was kind of a little bit of a fucking weirdo but he becomes the richest person you ever met Amber to make sure all of the people who look down on me have to beg me for money like genuinely he comes off as like a cartoon villain I don't get how people don't just break out laughing every time they look at him.

Hello my beautiful Dreamweavers!

I have a reading for you guys today again take what resigns with you and throw away what doesn't it you probably won't discover this reading anyway unless it's something that you need to hear. But today's one of those days where I don't know I feel like extra bubbly extra light and spiritually if you want to put it like that I don't know exactly how to explain it. Feel very much so in my Luna Lovegood bag basically.

But today's reading is an interesting one I use my fortune cookie Deck, Faye whispers,Dragon magic, The star seed Oracle and of course my tried my true my favorite Moonology deck.

I like always we start off with a fortune cookie. I shuffled the duck and pulled out tough and trying times. Tough times ahead, think long-term and make decisions accordingly. Avoid negative people at all costs.

The vibes I'm getting from this is currently we're going through a phenomenon that we're not going to see you for another 14 years where we have I believe it's like five or six planets that are perfectly aligned in the night sky for the past like about 2 or 3 days cuz it's it was getting there it started off with I believe like four of the planets you could see and they were in line before it got to all of them and it's kind of like a Time where delusion is more likely to come true for lack of better way of putting it from my understanding again I don't know much about astrology but this is based off of The vibes that I've been getting for the past like 2 and 1/2 days.

This also feels like a reminder that your inner World reflects in your outer world most of what you see in the 3D is because of consistency having the same consistent baseline thoughts whether you're aware of them or not that might have been instilled in you way back when you were a child and you believe in it. Now you're trying to change that.

Because you're trying to change programming that has been there for years you're going to go through some tough times it's going to feel like you're fighting yourself internally. But you need to think more so in the long term don't sit there and only think about what you assume should be the next step or should work now. Instead it's telling you to think about what you want in a year from now where do you want to be July 2027 what do you want to be experiencing what do you want your life to look like what do you want your life to look like in the next 5 years what would 2031 look like? Don't think so short-term don't just think of oh if I want this and it happens well how would X y and z happen to get there. Instead it's kind of like nudging you and telling you think bigger and longer instead of being like Oh I want to move to this city or country or have this job but these are all the steps I have to get nope just think about actually having the job moving to the place what would that be like what would it look like. Stay within that state of existence.

Which I think makes no more sense cuz the next card from the fae whispers is fairy feelings. We fairies connect so easily when you're filled with laughter and joy. But we understand when you feel sad. We send fairy hugs and sing Sweet lullabies, all to make you smile again.

You're allowed to feel sad you might actually be feeling sad today is a pretty depressing day where I'm at it's overcast it's raining it's been on and off thunderstorms. And it's okay to have those feelings and to feel that but you are most connected with Source universe God whatever it is you believe in when you sit with those feelings of joy laughter and happiness. When you choose to look at the brighter side of things being happier about stuff rather than only thinking of the negative.

To me it feels like you're being told that tough times are happening they exist they're going to exist. But you should still look at the brighter side of things because while there are things that are going wrong there are so many little things that are going right that you probably just overlook. But when you start paying attention to the things going right more goodness and rightness will happen in your life.

Now I think this is a trusting cuz I tried to pull only one card from these decks and dragon magic was having none of it. I was shuffling and three cards fell out and I was like okay no let me do it again and then the same three cards fell out again so clearly they the dragons have a lot to say.

Dragons watch. We are guardians. We see far, fly to the stars, and have been on this planet longer than any human can comprehend. We are watching over you, keeping you safe. You are protected!

Dragon sense. You are intuitive, human child. You are connected with realms in between and beyond your world. We dragons can heighten and sharpen your natural intuition - breathe in, and feel your every sense awakened and expand.

Dragon allies. We dragons now send you powerful, helpful allies who will stand by your side. Help each other - hand to hand, Heart to Heart - and see your world grow strong in love, freedom and understanding.

The dragons did not come to play they basically sat there and said you have us on your side and you are so much more than you feel and think. I feel like a lot of you who are reading this have been in a slump in general but especially when he comes to manifestation or staying positive in your life creating new assumptions that work for you and not against you. And the dragons have been watching that because that's what they are their guardians their Watchers they've noticed this happening for you and they want you to know like they're keeping you safe they're watching over you at the same time you have to listen to your intuition. You're probably having moments where you feel like you should do something or wear something feels right or something feels wrong but you're ignoring that.

You're preventing yourself from being yourself if that makes sense like you're stopping yourself from being a little weird from believing in what you want to believe in seeing the things that you truly wish to see in the world being optimistic or having the grand dreams that you have. Something is making you feel as if you have to be not necessarily grounded but that's what you're calling it. More so like you have to make yourself smaller and be more realistic instead of going for what you want and being the rainbow fish with the pretty scales you're pulling your skills off and giving them to everyone else so that you can blend it and so that at the end of it all you all look exactly the same you're trying to conform to what you think is the norm when that is the absolute opposite of what you should be doing.

Yeah I think that's what you're struggling with because the moon ology cards I pulled was full Moon and sagittarius, look at the bigger picture. Full moon in aquarius, show the World the real you and full moon in pisces, Balance spirituality and practicality. And then to end it all was new moon eclipse expect powerful change.

The cards have been telling from the beginning look at the bigger picture stop looking at things from a day-to-day aspect right you're driving yourself crazy trying to micromanage it feels like your manifestations where you're like okay if I'm going to manifest something it has to be x y and z and this is how it has to happen. Like by tomorrow I have to have this or by the end of the week and it's like stop thinking like that thing bigger picture. If it's too much to think a year in advance I think next month. What do you want next month what would next month look like for you if you had all things you wanted?

Balance spirituality and practicality along with show the world the real you again it's with the dragons are trying to tell you too which is you have to be yourself you can't keep dimming yourself or creating a version of yourself that you think is more practical more realistic. You can combine some aspects of what you view as realistic and practical with who you actually are don't get rid of the parts of you that believe doing a ritual like talking to the moon, Dancing in The Rain lighting an incense & meditating or whatever it might be. That makes you feel more like yourself that makes you feel spiritually connected taken care of ect. Like don't try and be something you're not practically or even spiritually.

For some people manifesting means praying to a god or goddess that you believe in and leaving it up to them, it can mean having a full-on conversation with yourself out loud as if something has already happened, it could be having a feeling about something that you want and letting it go or it can be sitting there and creating an elaborative story or idea or planning out exactly what it is you're going to do when you get the thing that you want. Whatever it is you need to do you need to do that.

And once you realize this expect powerful change once you start allowing yourself to exist as yourself not as a shell of yourself or as the version of yourself you think your family society life whatever wants you to be things are going to be moving rapidly. Is going to go from feeling like everything is pretty stagnant to everything is moving at lightning speed. Like you're going to go from worrying and being like I really want to do this thing but it's not happening to okay let me do what I have to do to feel aligned and good spiritually mentally physically whatever and then all of a sudden it's like the Gateway is open and you'll find yourself within the next 48 hours experiencing like a crap ton of things just going super right for you.

And lastly from the Star seed Oracle. You're already doing It. Stop overthinking, keep facing your true north. Council of light. Divine orchestration, helpers in the subtle realms. Imrama , where are you being called to journey to? And don't dim to fit in. How are you dimming your light in order to fit in?

Yeah like the consistent message that y'all need is allow yourself to be the little weirdo that you are. You're preventing yourself from doing that you're dimming your light you're trying to be something that you're not to fit into a box or mold that you don't need to fit into. Like this is really solidifying that you already know what it is that you want you know what your true north is what it is you desire and you're trying to bring into your life but for whatever reason you keep trying to dim your light or think smaller than what it is that is calling to you. You already kind of have an idea of where you being led to the journey that you could go on or will experience off of this thing that you desire. And you're being told to stop overthinking it stop complicating it stop trying to figure out how to do it in a way that basically kind of incorporates and makes everyone happy rather than just thinking about doing it for yourself. Because the happier and better off you are the happier and better off the people around you will be and those who no longer serve their purpose in your life are going to leave regardless and it feels like some of y'all are holding on to these people because you have emotional ties to them and it's time to let go. Que Sera Sera what will be will be. If they're meant to leave they're going to leave regardless holding on to them is like holding on to water or sand it's still slipping through your fingers. The difference is are you going to let the sand fall from your hand and allow the wind to take it away to only have a few grains left that you can easily just dust off or are you going to hold on to it till you have sand embedded into your fingernails where it's almost impossible to get it out and it just makes you feel irritated and you're constantly trying to remove it but you can't cuz it feels like you're just pushing it deeper and deeper into your nail.

AKA are you going to do it the easy way or are you going to do it a hard way one way where you're able to sit there and learn and grow from it in a productive way that at least teaches you something or another way where it makes you kind of become bitter. Where you start second guessing everything and holding on to it and you become the person who drinks poison while expecting the other person to die?

Like you already have your helpers regarding angels, higher self, source, the universe, god, goddesses whatever it is you believe in they're already working behind the scenes to get you what you want to get you from point A to point z. The thing is they just need you to know what point z is. They're like instead of you sitting here and beating yourself up trying to figure out A to point B to point B to point C they're like just choose your endpoint and the thing is you can have multiple things right if you're manifesting multiple things then maybe you have a point A to point C for one thing and then another thing is a point d to point f. But they're saying just figure out what that end goal is for each of those desires that you have.

We will do the rest they are basically a self-driving car you are the passenger in the car the only thing you need to do is type in the destination and enjoy the ride. You're going to have moments while you're sitting there and you have your food and water and we'll say you're not in like a regular car you're like an RV right you can sleep you can eat you can use the bathroom you can shower you can do all these things. But the RV is going to get you to where you need to be as long as you put the destination into the GPS. All you need to do is take care of yourself on the RV the food is stocked the water tanks are full, you have the softest bedding perfect lights you stop every few days to walk outside stretch your legs look at the scenery of where you've come now. And that's what they're telling you to do like that's all you have to do they just need you to take care of yourself eat sleep be happy.

I'm also getting the message of finding the joy in life allowing for negative energy like jealousy to guide you and not hinder you. Right I don't know why it's giving the feeling of like sitting down and watching a YouTube video that pops up in your recommended and it's like someone doing a vlog and they're vlogging in this place that you want to move to or you want to visit and one hand you kind of feel like super excited watching it on the other hand you're feeling jealous and thinking why isn't that me that should be me. And it's like don't let yourself fester in the bad feelings of it but allow that to be your guiding point. You feel jealous because you know now this is what you want if you're unaware of what it is that your destination is maybe that's what the jealousy is trying to tell you your destination is you want to be in the really happy relationship, you want to be traveling to this place, you want to have your own house tour where you're moving into your own apartment or house in whatever city state country that you want to live in. Understand that feel the negative emotion a little bit and then let it go be like thank you emotions for letting me know that this is what I want so now I can add that to the list I can put that into the GPS this is also something I want let's make a stop on our way to my dream life to finding and having my ideal partner coming to my life to traveling to this place and visiting will add this into I want to live here this is part of that destination now.

Like I'm seeing the image in my head of someone crossing a Finish Line and they're celebrating and they have all these people around them who are also cheering them on they have people they've never met before coming up to them and giving them hugs giving them kisses on the cheek embracing them letting them know like yes you finally you made it to your destination and all you need it to do was allow yourself to exist allow yourself to just be. You're trying too hard for something that is already predetermined.

Is giving the tortoise and the hare right for whatever reason you are currently trying to be the rabbit. You think that you have to rush and you have to stop and do all these things while like getting there as fast as possible but in actuality you need to be the tortoise slow and steady wins the race. The tortoise is existing it is just being what it is a tortoise it is not trying to go any faster than it naturally is it's not trying to do more than it normally would it is existing as it is and fully embracing that this is why I'm I move slow and steady and that is okay and that is why it wins the race. Because it's not racing with anyone else but itself it's not actually in a race with the rabbit it's doing it cuz it wants to prove to itself that it can run the race.

You're kind of at this point where you're trying to prove to yourself that you can have whatever it is you want to have that you can manifest whatever it is you want to manifest and this reading is telling you you can by just knowing what it is you want and letting it go allowing yourself to exist without freaking out about it all the time or feeling like you have to do 20 million different techniques in order to have it.

Mind you both of these are like legitimate quotes that this man has said this is why I always find it really weird when people want to turn around and defend be shit and their CEO and they kind of forget that this man is nothing more than evil piggy banks yes man and his ass kisser.

And I was thinking about this because of the siding we've had of h&h at the airport and how people seem to be like falling for this bullshit. Of course we're randomly seeing the girls when we haven't seen not hair or dust of them except for around the time a court case is about to happen. This three cases three hearings that are about to happen the one against the X employee that again their legal troubles are being paid for by the company which is wild cuz they don't work there anymore against MHJ and then the Danielle and her mother and mhj versus Ador case happening within the next weak. Next week and the week after.

Like that's why all of a sudden we see these random pictures of the girls that allegedly are from random fans and paparazzi. Mind you these are all very Michelle just like people that the company has hired or actual staff members that they tell to like stand at the other end of like a street to take these random ass photos when they're just out and about in these random foreign countries cuz again no one knows that they're here.

No one's aware of them randomly being thrown out to England and America and now I believe it was like Latin America or some shit. Except for the company and again the only time we ever see them is when the company is about to have some legal shit go down so instead their fans bunnies are focusing on having seen the girls for the first time in like fucking month and every time they look more and more miserable.

So I am posting this up because my aunt and you were having a conversation and she's a huge BTS fan. She also believes in like spirituality and stuff and she's talked about how she seen so many people doing readings for the members like individually or readings tarot card readings face readings Etc and how everything is very interesting about what's happening individually with the members and then we went into debt talking about certain Dynamics and stuff. Now that being said she had asked me about like the group energy. Rather than individual vibes and I decided to do a reading. And I decided to share that reading with you guys.

So I personally used three ducks for this my fortune cookie Deck, the star seed Oracle and the moonology oracle.

For the fortune cookie duck I decided to just pull out three cards but then a fourth one flew out because clearly it also needs to be a part of us. So what I ended up pulling was assert yourself, go for what you want, the time is right for soulmate connection. Birth of a child also likely.

Again we're talking technically about a group so it could mean that maybe one of the members might find themselves or a couple of them finding their soulmates people that they're in love with ect. But it's also making me think that we'll get into that because again we'll see the rest of them. The next one was health. And excellent time to start an exercise program or diet. Many new friendships are on the horizon okay I feel like that one along with a shirt yourself and then the following card which was the last one I personally pulled out which was care required. Guard yourself against deception and be careful of making foolish mistakes at this time. To me that was very very telling but then the last one that fell out was love love is in the air, a great time for committing and taking relationships to the next level.

So now let's kind of talk about what I think these four cards makes sense of what they mean for the group as a group. Assert yourself to me goes hand in hand with health and Care required in terms of I think it is a for a lack of better wording warning time it's a warning sign that the members are becoming friends with people who are seeing through the bullshit that they've been brainwashed to believe in some of them since they were little children by the company. Again care required protecting yourself against deception and making sure not to make foolish mistakes at this time. But then also the fact that was followed by love.

The number for keeps popping into my head so I believe that four of the seven members have either already found a platonic or romantic soulmate who has been actually talking to them and being like hey you know all these things you keep telling me about your company the things that they're like doing the threatening the trying to make you act a certain way that's not normal. Like even by entertainment standards that's not normal and they're having these kind of conversations that's making them kind of realize how one brainwash they've kind of been a little bit in terms of believing that there's certain things that have to happen and work ect. But also I think it's making some of them realize that the people who are supposed to be looking out for their best intentions and protecting them really were just sitting there and telling them whatever they needed to say in order to keep them compliant.

From the Moon ology that I pulled it's time to take action new moon and aries, confidence is your key to success New Moon and leo, you're very close to achieving your goal gibbous moon, adjustments are required third quarter moon, don't let pride get in your way full moon and leo, and reversed the end of a tough cycle approaches full moon and capricorn.

In my opinion this is basically saying that the worst is yet to come pun intended. They're going to go through quite a tough ending to the cycle that they're currently in but it's it's nowhere near being over. I feel like going back to the care required card is also important when you go into the full moon in Leo don't let pride get in your way and the new moon and Leo confidence is your key to success. I feel like this is specifically talking about their confidence in themselves individually and their confidence in themselves as a group as a whole. They have to remind themselves that they're the reason why their company is popular and not the other way around. They're the key to success and they're all the buffer that is protecting their corporation and some of the really shitty people in it. Don't let pride get in your way I feel like is the foolish mistakes and being careful that the care required card is talking about. I feel like one cuz that's the number that he's causing my head on one of the members has kind of got to the point where they're really fucking fed up they're like so done they're so fed up with everything like they love their job they enjoy their members there's a little bit of stress there I definitely feel like they might feel a little burdened with the fact that the company and people around them have like really pushed a certain rhetoric about them in a certain friendship within the group and is getting to them now we're there kind of like I am my own individual person can you please stop consistently acting like I'm a conjoined twin type of lives right. Like I want you to understand to see me for me and not as me having to always be a part of some duo or group situation. And because of that it's a high possibility of their pride getting in the way of them doing something very stupid and very prideful because of it and the people around them are the ones who are trying to be like yo don't do that now it's not the time to be doing that.

Adjustments are required third quarter moon and it's time to take action new moon and Aries clearly go together with one another. But I also feel like this is where the real tough part of the cycle kind of comes in for them because now they have to figure out exactly what the actions are that they take and what those adjustments that they need to make would be. They had a vision and an idea of what them coming back together as all seven was supposed to look like and how it was supposed to play out and it's not exactly going the way that they thought it would.

They had sather and basically come up with a game plan for a goal that they wanted they had talked about it planned it meticulously together separately and with the company and they're further from that goal then they have ever been before that's what it's giving. They have to start making adjustments they have to start making actions they're at this really weird point where on one hand they're aware of what they have to do in order to get what they and again this is just like the words and vibes popping into my head.

Is giving that they have a certain level of notoriety and fame that they want to reach and they're really close to reaching it. Where they would not have to worry as much as the company has made them and that they have for years in terms of their personal lives. Their goal as a group and individually now that they're getting older is to be able to balance their lives as celebrities and have normal lives outside of it. Like groups that keep popping into my head is like 2pm where it's a group that's been allowed around for a long time they have come back for special occasion special anniversaries when all of them to get together but they're all doing their own individual things right two of the members are married or getting married, some of them have businesses that have nothing to do with entertainment, some of them are doing acting and modeling and all this other stuff but they're like allowed to exist and do those things. Their fandom isn't like losing their shit over a member having been married for a few years now or one getting married. They have a type of respect from the fans and people who matter who show up every time they have a special anniversary every time they come out with a special album or a DVD or whatever it may be.

That's kind of The vibes it feels like the guys are going for BTS wants to get to that point. But they want to get to that point while still being where they are in terms of Fame and notoriety. The difference between them and the group that I was talking about is the other group didn't necessarily have a huge blow up and become super global they have a decent sized fandom though that has continued to grow and has existed for over a decade but because of the fact that the fandom in and of itself kind of has stayed pretty consistent in being a mid-sized fandom it makes it a lot easier for them to have that kind of relationship with their fans and to exist in the way that they are allowed to exist while still being celebrities.

And that's what the guys want and they're like pretty darn close to it like something is like making me feel like you're you're walking and it feels like the woods are still so dark and you want to turn back around but like little do you know you're like five steps away from the highway you just can't see it yet until you take those five steps and push the tree leaves to the side but you're right there at the edge of the forest that you thought you were trapped in.

Now the star seed cards are also interesting mainly because I got more reverse cards than I thought I would I normally don't really pull reverse cards from this deck.

But we got inner Temple devotion, tune into the portal of your heart. I feel like this makes sense because I've always gotten the vibe and every time I do a reading it's always divided for three. Every time there seems to be three members who are kind of on the same page and there seems to be four members that are kind of on the same page. And the way the illustration on this card is it's definitely making me think of the three members right it has two people at the base of a temple and then it has a giant star shining above the temple and it kind of brings your attention to the triangle that it creates. I feel like there's three members where they have been listening to their intuition and their intuition has been telling them for a while that this isn't it. But they also are very loyal like one thing that kind of pops up every time I do reading for BTS is that they're kind of loyal to a fault right loyal to the point where it's almost a little detrimental and they just haven't realized it yet. The next card is Mintakan longing for home, belonging, the original light workers. This one actually has imagery of four so there's like a mermaid and then there is three planets that you can see. I feel like these two cards again are talking about the divide in the group the three and the four. You have three of them who are listening to intuition they've been realizing for a while some of them have realized for like the past 5 years they've noticed how the company's kind of been playing them the favoritism the inconsistencies the yeah will do this and then it either getting pushed back or never happening but they've like bit their tongue they've said nothing. And then I'm also seeing the number one and at first I thought this meant like a year but then instead first kept popping in so I'm thinking more so the first time they finally had a break so during the pandemic where they had that first time of being able to have several months to just talk to their friends and family and interact with people outside of the entertainment industry or from other companies and talking to them and it made some of them realize just how controlling their company is even outside of like the basic narrative.

I keep having like images pop into my head of someone being like in a relationship they they arrive back home their shared apartment or their partner's apartment they're supposed to be spending time together but then they keep getting calls from their job but they're off the clock right they don't have to pick up the calls but they feel like they do so instead of sitting there spending time with their partner they're picking up the calls having like five hour long conversations and then leaving the police again like I have to go back to work honey they really need me and it just keeps going over and over it's like a never-ending loop. And I feel like that's something that they're starting to realize like you should still be allowed to have your own personal life and do certain things and other idols and artists do have those while they didn't for really long time and by the time they did have it they were so used to the way things had always worked that they kind of didn't use that to their advantage. And now they're realizing just how weird it is and also how trained they were to see this as normal do not question it and then the next card is star seed what lights you up? And it's a person sitting on like a cliff staring out into the ocean and they can see two planets floating fairly close to the planet. And between the imagery and also just The vibes I'm getting it really feels like some of them are starting to like lose that spark. They're aware of the fact that the way that things are going it's making them genuinely start to dislike and even hate the idea of performing of being a celebrity putting themselves out there and it's scary because they genuinely do love and adore what they do. But it's becoming so much more draining and the cons are outweighing the pros for them.

I keep hearing someone in my head saying, " I can't do this anymore I want to but I can't not like this." And I think that's like the vibes is also giving like one member specifically this is like the thoughts in their head I feel like this is something that they've they've stated at least four different times and we're met with the promise of change but then that change didn't really happen or it did but it was for such a short amount of time where they've had pockets of feeling okay and then they go right back to like I just I can't do this anymore.

And I'm not going to say names but if you've been on this account long enough you know that I have like low-key a one-sided beef with one of the members I don't know why it's just like spiritually I I don't like them. I cannot explain to you why I genuinely think that we have had interactions or met in a past life because the way that I have a physical reaction when I see them and I'm not even joking I have seen BTS live like three times and every time that person has gotten way too close to my section it makes me feel like genuinely sick like when you're around someone and like you can't stand them like there's something about them that freaks you out so much that you feel like you're going to throw up that vibe. I'm not going to say who but I feel like you can definitely figure it out if you look I keep seeing that image of that one clip of that movie I've never watched of that girl just screaming over and over again I'm a star I'm a star I'm a star!

They are internally crashing the fuck out because I feel like they probably have one of the worst cases of loyalty to the company and loyalty to evil Porky the pig. They have intertwined their entire being to the company and to being a part of the company and a part of the group. Like this is a member who needs attention they don't want it they need it like they crave it they can't survive without it and to them the idea of them making the changes that they might need to make for all of them to be happy don't seem good enough in their opinion to possibly lose their access to the absolute drug that is attention.

Like this person is like there you ever watch The Sour patch kids commercials? That's what their actual real personality is like right they give off a certain image to the general public and that the company has helped them cultivate but they're real personality is pretty dependent on other people's attention and it's also a little a lot like they're conceited as much as the ocean is deep they are self-centered in the way that our planet is covered in water more than it is covered in continents. But they're really good at manipulation and not in like a really fucked up way but in a they will find a way to manipulate you to like them you will never know who they really are because they don't know who they are when they're not being perceived because of this everything that's going on with the company is freaking them the fuck out because it's making them realize that what makes them light up is heavily reliant on being in the public eye and perceived a certain type of way but in order for any of them to fully have the synergy that they kind of need in order to truly survive as a group in the long run for way longer than they already have those changes could temporarily get rid of that for them.

The next card is one of the reverse cards which is unbound release soul patterns, contracts, and past lives and it shows three people floating in the air at night but they are tied to the ground with rope. Like they're trying to get away but they are literally bound to the planet. And again I feel like this goes with what I just talked about with the last person there are multiple members of three it feels like with again the cards image. There are members that are already floating away right they've unbound themselves from the company from evil piggy bank.

They've gone to the point where they understand that they no longer need the company the company needs them and they're trying to figure out exactly how to make the next couple of moves so that they don't end up in a situation that they don't want to be in. If feels like they kind of want to sit there and get to a point where they have a solid plan in place before they make a move. But one of the biggest issues that they're currently having is the fact that there are at least three members that still have that unwavering loyalty to accompany that no longer feels like it's loyal to them. They're all a little on edge like they're walking on a tightrope that's tied to the Titanic and the iceberg that's about to take the ship under and there's at least five different lifeboats under them but they have to make it to the lifeboat before they can jump off of the tightrope. Like that is literally the image that popped into my head.

It's also causing frustration like I said there's a member that feels like they're trying to be more than what the company has painted them to be and trying to be more than just a part of the ensemble or having to be part of some duo or having to be linked specifically to members and then there's the member who craves and needs attention like we need air. And it feels like it's causing a frustration between the two of them I wouldn't necessarily say a rift but more like a headache like they're giving each other a headache because they're going back and forth trying to convince the other one why the next move is necessary. And it's kind of becoming almost like a standoff where it's becoming a battle of ego and pride on top of just like facts like we're not all happy if this keeps happening x y and z could happen this might not work out. Because every time I do a reading for them and even now I keep getting the same image which is either a jyj situation where all of the members leave and they're able to technically continue on as a group together they just might have to like change their name like I said for whatever reason jyj and highlight pop up into my head even though I also feel like legally speaking they probably would win if they try to sue their company for the rights to everything because of how popular they are and how synonymous they are with the name and the company wouldn't be able to use BTS or army or anything affiliated with them. And then the other image that I keep getting is EXO which is the group divided some of the members. fracturing the foundation of the group and the fandom and kind of like basically it would be really like a shit show. Like I keep getting images of like people walking around looking at their phones and like whispering to each other YouTube being covered with videos of like the downfall or the end of BTS. Members getting dragged into shit that they had nothing to do with because of them now being kind of stuck with the company and the company using them however they can as like means to Shield themselves or get away from stuff. And like I said the other image I get is them leaving the company I keep seeing like 1.5 so I'm I'm assuming like maybe a year and a half of them possibly having to be in like a legal battle to get the rights to their names and stuff but ultimately them winning and then being able to continue on just outside of the company I also don't see them joining another company I see them legitimately like starting their own just for them like they're not trying to come out with a bunch of other groups and shit they're just creating a legal company for themselves to be able to sit there and be in control of their music and themselves and come out with like group projects and stuff basically a got7 situation.

The next card I pulled was pillar of light your vibration is rising. You are the oracle followed by the last two cards which are both reversed which are Imrama where are you being called to journey to? And sisterhood of the Rose Beauty and devotion, Mystic teacher.

And I feel like all three of them kind of intertwined with each other but more importantly the fact that where are you being called to journey is a card that is reversed I think is very interesting cuz it's almost as if it's saying like you know where you're being called to journey you're not questioning it cuz that's what it is it's a question. But you're not going there you're not doing what you need to do to get to again that end goal that you have that you're so close to achieving. And then with sisterhood of the Rose it is quite literally a picture of five people actual women and two statues in a semicircle standing among funnily enough Seven pillars with the ocean behind them and the sun shining above their heads. And again that being reversed I'm seeing this instead of like sisterhood morsel like Brotherhood right I'm also seeing this as like Mystic teacher there's something that they're supposed to be learning but they're not. There's something that they need to do together as a Brotherhood but they're preventing themselves from doing it whether it's because some of them are afraid or some of them genuinely don't think they could get away or pull this off.

The overall Vibe I have gotten is that the group is in limbo. They're in this really weird place where some of them are aware of exactly how they're perceived and viewed by the company and they're ready to move on from that right they want more freedoms they want more of a say in their life and they know they can't do that while staying there the company is quite literally toxic for them again it's the imagery of like a field of flowers with a giant tree in the middle but in order for the flowers to survive the tree is slowly dying that's the imagery that keeps flashing in my head like they are the tree that's standing at the center of this giant field that is filled with all of these flowers and other trees and things but in order for the feel to stay Lush and green and for everything to seem cohesive the tree in the middle has to start dying. Not the whole tree but parts of it is going to die some of the wood is already rotting some of the branches no longer sprout leaves it's in this half dead State the state of limbo it's like Schrodinger's cat it is both alive and dead at the same time.

I also keep getting the image of like showing up to a friend's house because they told you they were sick so you guys couldn't go out and then when you arrive you see them through their window hanging out with that new friend of theirs who is all like new and shiny and fun and different and it feels like they're replacing you like that that's kind of The vibes that I also feel like it's happening with the members and within the company. Words like they can feel that the company is literally trying to prepare to replace them with their successors like they've already tried or they have or they're in the middle of picking whichever group they want to walk in their footsteps and kind of take over for them right and I feel like whether this is actually happening that way or if it's just them feeling like that because it feels like so many companies are doing that you know they're having groups that have been around for a while they're their new legacy acts from 3rd gen who are pitting themselves first. So you don't have all of the members resigning with the companies and you have some of these companies already trying to find the next group to take over to be there next like legacy act or to be there next cash cow.

It feels like as a group they're in like this really weird crossroad they could either continue on the path that they're on with a company but there's a high possibility that it's going to ruin them individually as people and also their spirits. Right it's like they know that there's a possibility they'll be used as Shields again some of them have already realized and recognized the many times where they're elusive personal life that they're not allowed to share have been used or manipulated by the company in order to protect the company itself. And they know that there's always a possibility of that happening that as they get older regardless of the money they're bringing in regardless of the fans that they have the company will start seeing them as a liability and more and more replaceable. But then the other path that they could take where they take this on themselves where they choose themselves first is scary in the fact that it is not something they can predict. They cannot predict what companies they might sign to as solar artist or if they might start their own they can't predict the trajectory of their solo careers in a different company they can't guarantee the popularity that they have continuing to follow them if they leave and this also brings me to like another aspect I feel like this reading and a few others kind of do.

Which is anytime I do a reading for any group from this company there's always this underlying anxiety right like genuinely I hate doing HYBE readings because they make me anxious and not like Oh I'm a little anxious no I mean like they have my heart pumping really fast I start getting really sweaty I feel like I could be on the verge of a panic attack at any moment and the reason why is I think that's literally how their groups feel. Their groups regardless of where they stand in terms of popularity within and outside of the company they're always super anxious and on the verge of a panic attack because they have been taught they have been made to believe that at any moment their fans will turn on them. That the company is the one in control and that the company is the one who's pulling the strings on the fandoms that if they left they will no longer have those people following them.

Is one of the reasons why and I'm not going to get into it I might do a rant about it tomorrow or something I think the company is so quick on throwing Enhypen members in front of a fucking camera or on stage and making them claim that there are six member group the same way I think it's the reason why they're so fucking terrified of new jeans and bunnies and they keep trying to fucking Sue and failing mind you they've tried suing several times now bunnies for spreading actual information and facts because they didn't think that the fandom would stay United they didn't think that these fandoms would care so much about all seven members that they would be willing to continue calling them a seven-member group that they would continue having hope that the member would come back. They didn't think that these fandoms would stick together so even though it's been about 2.5 years since all of the bullshit has happened with new jeans and mhj the fans aren't leaving that girl group. They have not left them behind they have not become forgotten and that terrifies the company but I also think that's what has if woken up some of the members of BTS to realizing that the company for years has probably been dangling over their heads that the fandom likes them because of the company and them seeing that that's not the truth was jarring but also something they needed to see and it terrifies the company so the company is trying their hardest to hold on to the members who haven't quite come to terms with that.

When me and my aunt were talking I pointed out to her that every time I use my traditional tarot cards to do a reading in general about a group and this company especially specific groups I'm not again not going to name the name of the groups but there's at least five of them they always have death and the tower pop up every goddamn time.

If you know anything about it you'll know that that duo in my opinion is the hugest transformation Duo you can pull in traditional tarot. Death meaning you can no longer continue with whatever it is you're doing this cycle has to end you have to kind of move on and something let go of something that is no longer serving you. And the tower being a new beginning structure that is no longer needed, breaking through the illusion having an epiphany about something.

And I am telling you at least five groups every time I use my traditional tarot deck those two cards will always pop up when I'm doing any reading about them and their relationship with the company. BTS is one of those five groups where their members who are realizing the structure of this relationship they have with them the way that this has been painted the illusion they've been sold is a lie. They're realizing that they can't get to where they want to be if they're stuck in this never-ending cycle.

Anyway I'm going to end this year because I feel like I'm going to just keep rambling on because I keep having thoughts and image and stuff popping into my head which again happens a lot with these groups because so much chaotic energy. It genuinely feels like having a billiards table that's filled with way too many balls and someone just knocks them all into each other and they start just spewing off everywhere. It feels like someone took a six pack of soda shook them up handed them to five random people and then had them all open them spontaneously in different rooms in a house and now you're running from room to room to see what the hell got ruined in each of the rooms it is very chaotic energy it makes me jittery it's like I just sat here and downed 15 Red Bulls.

Just like a mini rant/update but yeah at this point I'm convinced that they're not resigning those contracts. I could be wrong and I definitely want to do a reading like a in general one soon that I'll post up for everyone about the group but what the fuck do you mean they're going to be at Comic-Con on a panel with the director of Twilight and two of the actors that played Dr Cullen and alice?

You're telling me that now as they're revamping the group and all that they're sending them to Comic-Con like 4 years after they have already started the webtoon and corresponded Wattpad story/books and now 4 years later after losing a member they're going to be performing and doing a panel at Comic-Con to talk about the webtoon.

I feel like when you start getting K-pop idols doing random ass side quest by the company not on their own right I'm not talking about fucking ncts Kun out here getting his license to be a fucking air pilot or any of the other 50 million licenses like his construction worker license and shit like that that he has okay those are like side quests that you do on your own and sometimes K-pop idols be doing that shit and you're just like I don't know why you decided that that was something you wanted to do but like good for you.

But I'm talking about when the company starts giving you side quests that they never give thought about or hinted at giving before. And it's near the end of your initial contract in my opinion it normally means that contract negotiations aren't going really well. On top of that no offense but we have yet to actually have any Hybe group that had to do contract renewals that didn't renew an entire year ahead of time. Txt BTS SVT all of them renew their contracts basically a year before the originals were over so like they still had to get go out that one year but they had already resigned contracts and negotiated a year ahead of time. The only group who did not do that were the ones that the company instantly just like Thanos snapped out of their company Gfriend, NU'EST,Formus9. Like those are literally the only other groups that technically could have had the opportunity to renew their contracts and two of those groups literally talked about the fact that they never even had the talks or the negotiation for contract renewal the company basically just said you're disbanded. So it's not very promising when their contracts should be over pretty damn soon and there's been no real conversation about contract renewals or no real conversation about if the members are staying or not outside of one member getting separated from the rest of the group.

I also wonder how this is going to go I feel like you'll probably have more people there for interested in Twilight showing up for their panel for those two days also what would the members even talk about like are they are they getting re-educated in the lore because I feel like we never really get them talking about the lore like I said I'm not a hardcore fan so maybe they do more often than I know but of all the live streams of theirs that have like we watched after they've been uploaded on YouTube and like compilation videos of theirs I don't think I've ever seen them actually sit there and like talk about the war of their webtoon and vibes and shit. So it's going to be interesting to see that they're going to be the ones leading a panel to talk about their love to and also what the storyline is going to be now apparently one of the vampires does get married to the human girl and they're going against the taboo of vampires and humans being together or some shit like that from what I've seen on the internet about their upcoming sixth member album and again I'm like how is that going to explain one of the main vampires just disappearing?

Like I said I like story lines for Kpop groups and I did last year actually watch two three hour long videos that sat there and completely broke down the entire lore of both Enhypen and &team and I thoroughly enjoyed it but the only reason why I didn't go back to thoroughly get into the whole lore is because the last couple of albums seem to have absolutely nothing to do with the Lord so I'm like should I even bother? Because trust me I bothers with the BTS floor I bothered with the txt lore I bothered with the boyfriend lore. Any group that I liked which had some kind of storyline best believe I sat there and studied that shit and dealing that primarily it was Boy groups it was the handful of boy groups that I was really into. I'm talking like genuine fan out here genuinely learning everything I can about the law watching all of the music videos and having discussions online with other fans about it.
