#I posted this on twt for the screenshot only to immediately delete it

nk here, can you unblock me so we can talk on twt without the whole back and forth in the replies? thanks

Hi nk my dms are open here and you may use them

I explained I blocked you because you have a history of lying and hiding the truth. ironically you immediately hid my replies and are now asking to talk after I have reblocked you to prevent you from further hiding my replies.

you are a person who appears to spend the majority of their time looking for artists to cancel. Against me you make repeated claims that I have admitted to taking an easy route to success, traced ai artwork, and claimed you should feel guilty for calling me out. none of this is true and I think you know that. this is not letting the people who support me know anything- this is lying to them and making a well documented, resolved problem appear unresolved and neglected.

in your reply you express clear acknowledgment of my message to you. In that message I explained that the issue of referencing artwork was an old mistake, one that is not continuing today. and furthermore it is one that I have settled with the artists AZ Wald and Kooks. Both of whom have expressed they felt the matter was handled. I attached screenshots of this in a later reply. I also tell you that I have paid Kooks double the profits to correct my wrong decision to monetize. Given all that information that you still proceeded to make the following post.

I can only apologize for my mistakes, make it right with the artists (which includes deleting and compensation), and not do it again. that is not playing the victim or dodging the problem, that is literally taking accountability.

You seem to know that this is not an ongoing issue but still implicate me in entirely unrelated issues with actual ai artists in an attempt to make it seem current.

Nk let me address your belief that those few pieces are the cause for my success. Social media does not favor one hit wonders, it favors consistency, dedication and a fair amount of chance. You take a look at any of the popular artists within any fandom and the one thing everyone has in common is quality and consistency. Everyone has had successful pieces and flops and not a single one of them would likely attribute their long term success to a single work. There are no easy routes. Sooner or later you will lose relevancy if your work is not ever adapting and improving.

Lastly, you will find eventually that I am not alone in my mistakes. I will obviously not be providing names but I have encountered several established artists make the same mistakes I have. Some have been called out, some have not. It was a great contributing factor to why I did not recognize what I had done was wrong sooner. This is not an excuse but rather to point out your obsession with me cannot be remotely written away as under good faith.

nk i will take this post down once i have a dm from you. it is not my intention to put ur actions on blast. i would much rather resolve this privately however know that you have in many ways forced me to acknowledge you.

to anyone who has read this, do not harass nk or give them attention for this.

how to join + level up in the TRCNG fancafe on desktop (june 2018)

so recently, ts has changed the level up requirements in the trcng fancafe, which i am thankful for because the quiz is MUCH easier than like. being on the fancafe for a # of days, posting a # of posts, and commenting a # of times. i can’t remember the specifics akjfkdf. i’ve been part of the fancafe since trcng opened their fancafe but i haven’t leveled up yet rip me. inevitably, this means i haven’t gotten to see any of trcng’s fancafe posts. rip me [2].

but since they changed the level-up requirements to a quiz, then it’s easier to level up! instead of, y’know, commenting on strangers’ posts, pretending to know what they’re saying bcs majority of fancafe users are korean. rip me [3].

joining the fancafe might be a little intimidating, but once you’ve joined and leveled-up, then it’s incredibly worth it to read some of the posts from the members and write messages to them !! special thanks to hazel in the trcngcord! i’m not sure if she wants her twt @ shared since shes on private, but she’s one of our kind translators in the trcngcord! ^^

the rest of the desktop guide is below because it got long ^^

prior to joining a fancafe, you must have a daum account. it isn’t incredibly difficult to make and there are multiple guides online on how to join, but i will include them both here!

DESKTOP FANCAFE GUIDE

1. making a daum account

this is the daum homepage. it’s basically naver/yahoo/google i guess you could say? the purple square is where you need to click to make an acct. the blank boxes above it are where you log in if you already have a daum acct.

you have two options: making a daum acct with your kakaotalk acct or making a completely different account. for this guide, i chose the second option.

it takes you to the terms and conditions, which you tick both boxes and then click the big blue button.

here is where you put the information for your account. “daum 아이디” is your daum id, which you need to remember for when you level up. it’s basically your username. “비밀번호” is password, and “비밀번호 재확인” is password confirmation. “이름” is your screen name. below, you have to put in your number, and then press the blue button. you’ll get a text with a confirmation number, which you input underneath your number. under that is an email, and you can use another daum account since daum accounts are email accounts.

2. joining the fancafe

when you finally have your account, you go to the trcng fancafe and click “카페 가입하기”. unfortunately, i deleted my screenshot of what it looks like when you click, but! good thing there’s google and i can pull one from images lol.

“닉네임“ is your nickname for the fancafe. it doesn’t have to be the same name that you put when you made your daum account. tick the two boxes (they’re basically asking if you want to receive mail to your daum account for notices and post notifications). “보안문자“ is the captcha code that you input. when you’ve finished, click “가입“ and you’ll have joined the fancafe!

3. leveling up in the fancafe

i’ll probably make a different guide to what the other pages in the sidebar are, but for now, the one you want to go to in order to level up is “등업신청“ (level-up application). where i have circled below that is “준회원방” (associate’s room) where associate members (basically anyone who hasn’t leveled up yet) can make posts. if you click on “준회원방“ . . .

you can find hazel’s english guide on how to level up. please note that your responses have to be in korean for the managers to accept your application!

Go to 등업신청 Click “Write” to start writing a post. MAKE SURE IT’S SECRET POST. One application only!! Don’t apply more than once. Answer the following questions (in Hangul): 1. Name / DAUM ID / Age / Place of resident / Gender 2. Write TRCNG’s members names and birthdates in Age order 3. Write TRCNG Debut date and debut song name 4. Names of 2 members who eat candy in WOLF BABY MV 5. Name of member who won the pedometer game in 200 day anniversary V LIVE. Write the question number only and your answer next to it exactly. Post it and wait 1-2 days before they level you up. Things to make sure of: - Your nickname must be EITHER English OR Korean, NO MIX. No Emoji! No numbers! No special characters! Just letters, less than 8 letters. - Set ID Privacy to “Managers”

HOW TO SET YOUR ID PRIVACY:

if you click on the circled part, you can go to the settings of your fancafe account

you can edit your fancafe name (nickname), change the privacy settings of your id (아이디), your gender and age (성별/나이), and your last visit (최종방문일). these settings are manually set to members (회원 공개). click on it to change it to managers (운영진 공개). technically, you need to only have the id set to managers, but i have everything set to managers because of when i joined another fancafe and leveled up.

when you go back to  등업신청 to write up your post, there are a few things to make sure of.

make sure that your post is secret so that only the managers can see it! to make your post private, just click on the lock. after that, make sure that every requirement is met so that you don’t have to be corrected by the managers. when you’ve double checked, then click post (등록).

NOTE: you won’t be approved immediately! it might take a few days, so for now, just wait. you may need to check your daum mail occasionally to see if you get mail from the managers.

i hope this guide was helpful ! please leave an ask if you have questions or if i left anything out! i’ll post a mobile guide soon!
