Hold onto the hope for that one beautiful day

"Hold onto the hope for that one beautiful day", a review of the MetOpera live's production of 'Madama Butterfly' which is screening in South Africa this week.

GO and live your life, my child, but do not forget this face, says Cio-Cio San (Asmik Grigorian) to her child in the 2024 MetOpera’s production of Madama Butterfly . Photograph by Jonathan Tichler/Metropolitan Opera. That feeling when you get into a warm bath after a difficult day, and you know everything will be alright is the kind of sensation you get in the remote audience of Puccini’s…

My Answers to 100 Questions

So technically I wasn’t tagged to do this, but I have been seeing it around and it seems fun and like a good way for people to get to know each other, so I wanted to do it.

When did I first started listening to kpop? - I first was introduced to kpop with the YouTubers React to KPOP and it was actually EXO’s Overdose that originally got me into the genre and I’m going to say that was around 2 years ago?  Then around a year ago, I saw my friend dance to KPOP songs and thought it was awesome and that exposed me to GOT7′s Just Right and BTS’s Dope, but then this previous year I couldn’t stop thinking about Dope and somehow found VIXX’s Chained Up and that was the song and group that I fell head-first into this mess with.

First group I listened to/liked? - As I said above I really liked Overdose, but GOT7 was the first group that I looked up their names and I immediately liked Mark, so technically Mark was the first bias I ever had.

Do you prefer boy groups or girl groups? - Boy groups, but recently I’ve been listening to some girl groups as well.

Favorite female group? - Red Velvet (I also really like Blackpink)

Favorite male group? - VIXX (Though BTS is an incredibly close second, I’m just incredibly loyal)

Favorite female solo artist? - Hyuna? (I don’t really listen to any solo artists, but I’m open for suggestions!)

Favorite male solo artist? - GDragon and Eric Nam

Top 3 Groups? 1. VIXX 2. BTS 3. ASTRO

Favorite Kpop Song? - FIRE by BTS

Favorite Kpop happy song? - Just Right by GOT7 + Highlight by Seventeen

Favorite Kpop sad song? - Stigma by BTS (Kim Taehyung)

Favorite kpop smut song? - Chained Up by VIXX

Favorite KPop song of 2017 so far? - Not Today by BTS + 1.2.3 by B.I.G

Favorite debut? - Knock by KNK

Favorite debut of 2017 so far? - Haven’t seen any yet... whoops.

Favorite mv of 2017 so far? - Never Ever by GOT7 (Though I loved Spring Day + Not Today by BTS, I was surprised more by Never Ever)

Favorite mv? - Fantasy by VIXX + I NEED U by BTS

Favorite album/mini album? - The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever (BTS)

Favorite album/mini album or 2017 so far? - WIngs: You Never Walk Alone (BTS)

Your bias group? - VIXX

Your ultimate bias? - Leo (Jung Taekwoon) from VIXX 

Favorite GIF of your ultimate bias? - Um... tbh I don’t think I have one?  He looks cute all the time.

Favorite picture of your ultimate bias?

Favorite thing about your bias? - I really like how much Leo has grown since debut, I mean he used to be really quiet but now he is comfortable and talks and makes jokes and I’m so proud.

Was he your bias from the start? - Yep :)

Your top 10 biases?   1. Leo - VIXX 2. Jungkook - BTS 3. Rocky - ASTRO 4. Hongbin - VIXX 5. V - BTS 6. Mark - GOT7 7. Minhyuk - Monsta X 8. Wonho - Monsta X 9. Ten - NCT U 10. Ken - VIXX

Have you ever changed biases more than 3 times in what group? - Yeah totally.

If so; what group and what members? - When I first started to watch BTS videos I liked Jin, but then when I got into them I had Rapmonster as my bias, and then it was Suga, but now it is Jungkook (And tbh V is driving me insane he’s the worst bias wrecker)

Favorite Ship? - Wontaek + Vkook + Markson

Do you ship the “mom & dad” in your favorite group? - Nope!  Neo is cute, but Wontaek stole my heart.

Who’s the mom and dad in your favorite group? - Leo (Jung Taekwoon) + N (Cha Hakyeon)

Who do you end up liking more in groups; Leaders, Maknaes, mood makers, vocal, rap, “mom”, “dad”, english speaker, drummer, guitarist, pianist? - Vocalists + visuals, but I really don’t follow any kind of pattern.

If your bias got a girlfriend/boyfriend how would you feel? - I’d cry out of pure happiness, they deserve the world and I’m sure finding love as an idol is incredibly difficult, so if Leo found someone and they made it public that would mean that they really meant something to him, and I’d just cry for the happy couple.

How would you feel if your bias came out gay/lesbian/bisexual/etc.? - I really don’t like this question tbh because it’s our jobs as fans to support our biases through thick and thin, and being gay is nothing to be ashamed of, but this question kind of makes it sound like people would stop supporting their bias if they were, those people aren’t real fans.

Do you think any kpop idols are gay/lesbian/bisexual/etc.? - I have a few in mind, but I don’t actually go out of my way to figure these kinds of things out or stereotype people, it’s just a vibe I get from them.

If so; who? - N (Cha Hakyeon) from VIXX
