I listened to "Dumb Litty" and it was okay. I will say that I'm proud of Matthew for producing the song, ik he worked extremely hard on it, but I wasn't feeling it that much. Is it weird that I loved everything but the song itself? Like the looks were amazing, the choreo was on point, and I did enjoy the beat of the song. But I feel like something was off, but maybe it was because its been a minute since I've listened to anything Kpop related. Again I know that Matthew worked really hard on this and it's amazing to see him so hands on with the group's music. But I dunno what are y'all's thoughts on it? I'll listen to it again to see if maybe I should give it another shot.

BKFNET IS 4 YEARS OLD

Wow, I love BKF so much. I have been an admin for four years and I think it’s wonderful that still so many of you support us. Even though we’re all busy and at different stages of our lives. Kpop is still at the core of our community. With that being said, 

Who was the first group to get you into Kpop? 

Mine was the Wonder Girls in 2007!

How Kpopmeetblackwomen/kmusicblackwomen Got Popular

Omg so I always said I'd make a post regarding the history of that controversial tumblr and so today is the day! I was there when ole girl first made the tumblr and dipped when things got a little weird to me but I know why she got fans in the first place and how she's kept them. This is gonba be long so get Ready for some bulletpoints and tea!! (Cold old tea lmao)

* 2014-15 kpop tumblr was....rough...especially for black fans. Like kpop was as problematic as ever but people were coming for each other's throats for liking problematic idols, like people were acting like parents and police when it came to this. You reblogged a picture of Chanyeol??? You had atleast 2 people in your inbox wanting to know why you reblogged his picture. There were these headass "most unproblematic member in each group" lists going on lmao and there was this one person who said you were a "Baekhyun sympathizer" if you still liked the problematic lil fellow. Baekhyun has said some trashy shit HOWEVER making that parallel was doing the absolute fucking most, when someone says sympathizer you know you automatically think of Nazis. Oh! And there was also this trend of people subposting other people, telling them they don't love themselves and when they'd get called out on it, they'd backpeddle. Those people are just now admitting that the shade they threw was towards specific people.

* With that being said, the dominant black kpop tumblr was blackkpopfans and during that time it became less of a place where you could find out updates on comebacks and such and more so a place where people could list out their justified grievances towards antiblackness in kpop. The issue with that however was, it came to the point where people where beating dead horses and the environment there was very negative. Like it was multiple anons going on about how they hate gdragon or zico, which is fine, but it was 80% anons like that and 20% actual kpop content. And I think it got to the point where people were thinking like....well why are we even into kpop if it's gonna be like this???

* So that was the state of blackkpopfans and some reached out to the admins to say they didn't think the atmosphere was right and that it was really negative to which the admins replied it's not negative here, this is what our anons have to say. Which is where I side eyed the admins cuz they weren't being genuine nor truthful and they acted like the atmosphere was something they couldn't help which they most certainly could especially since they were the ones responsible for posting information about comebacks which for a while they hardly did and they often posted anons daily that literally said the same thing, like I'm telling you people were running over dead horses:old, old receipts. Also the black and teal or green color scheme was depressing and just made everything worse, it was so not appealing lmao but maybe that was just me. I personally think, if the tumblr was a black kpop fans anonymous tumblr, like the one we have now I believe, I'd cut the admins alot of slack but they called themselves a place where black fans could gather, get information on debuts and comebacks, and discuss a multitude of things good and bad, so that's why they get a side eye.

* So overall, things weren't "fun" over at blackkpopfans. It was actually getting boring too cuz like I said all the repetitiveness and lack of new information. And so guess who toostie rolls onto tumblr in 2015??? That's right, Kpopmeetblackwomen. And guess what, people FLOCKED to her why? Cuz it was like a breath of fresh air.

(THE IMPORTANT STUFF LMAO)

*Now in the very very beginning, Kpopmeetblackwomen wasn't "bad" persay. The admin, at the time, like I know she's a lil dust bunny now, but INITIALLY, admin came across as very very sweet. She was nice to all her visitors and when people asked her why she created the tumblr she said she just wanted another resource/outlet for blackkpopfans to have. She didn't think it was good that blackkpopfans was all there was especially considering what was going on over there. I think, in the beginning, she wanted black kpop fans to still have a place to enjoy themselves, cuz in the beginning she didn't bother blackkpopfans at all. So you know, everything was innocent and nice enough in the beginning. The theme was pink, white, and a lil bit of yellow? Nice and bright, the layout was attractive, things were tagged properly. People talked about how excited they were for certain groups comebacks. Comeback info for groups was actually posted. It was just a welcoming place. Along with discussions of new releases there were also fans submitting legitimate fanaccounts, and alot of them came with video or footage. And that aspect was fun too, it was nice seeing black fans interact with their favorite groups, especially at the time where I think alot of us were kinda scared due to the known antiblackness and the subsequent environment on tumblr. So people posted how they met so and so at the airport or restaurant and posted selfies and I swear no one was being cringe, we, the fans, were just enjoying thus exchange of information. Also, there people actually were still discussing the problematic behavior of some idols, some people said outright they didn't like a certain person and it was cool, so it felt like a good balance. Though there were one or two situations in the beginning that made me sideye a follower, I brushed it off cuz the comment seemed silly and extra at most..lmao if only I knew.

*So where did things go wrong? From my point of view...I'd say after like the first 6 months???? Maybe, but after a while the fanaccounts dried up, naturally so cuz groups don't come to the u.s or Europe that frequently anyways. But when the submission of legitimate fanaccounts dried up, the admin and some of her followers began to act a little weird. Not only that but she stopped talking about new kpop and I think that's when the atmosphere legitimately shifted for the worse. Yes were there some people I sideyed before it yeah but I can pinpoint exactly when that space went to a point of no return: when the fan submissions were few and far between and the discussions became less relevant to kpop and more so to how (insert kpop idol or group) just looooves him some chocolate. Yeah it got really messy really quick.

* So after that shift I kinda bounced cuz I just wasn't comfortable interacting with her or her tumblr when I saw what it became and I actually think a good bit of us left after a while. Lmao after I left tho, everytime I popped my head in to see what was going on, things just kept getting worse and soon the admin and her minions started attacking not only blackkpopfans admins but also girls who contacted her requesting their fanaccounts and/or pictures be removed due to the blatant fetishism going on. One prominent incident was when those two sisters, can't remember their names, but they were being harassed after they asked the admin to take down their video or pic of them meeting Zion T.

* I haven't checked on her at all really after those incidents that happened but I still see that she's still up to no good and she's as delusional as ever. Oh! Wait another thing she'd do is write fanfic fanaccounts but then not tell people it was fanfic so people were being tricked to believe those were actually fanaccounts until someone made her clarify. Whew chile. Now I see she's still busy with making bad photoshop edits.

* Overall I really hope she snaps out of it but I don't think I can truly forgive her for preying on the insecurities of young black girls and women who obviously were/are in need of validation. While I understand the desire to be desired, that's not the way to go and it ultimately ends up with hurt feelings and an even worse self esteem. I am glad black kpop tumblr is in a better place now where there's room and acceptance for laughter and lighthearted fangirling or what have you while also room to have tough discussions.

**side note- okay lil shade, not directed to any of my mutuals though, but lol some of yall who be dragging sis be knowing ALOT about what's going on over there lmao and I'm always wondering how you stay up to date on a person who's content you don't fuck with. Like I don't like ole girl and I hardly hear about her unless something really extra goes viral. Do you though, it's all love, I'm just teasing you lol**

I shouldve been paying attention. Because I was too busy watching my bestie Jackson squat on the damn speaker, I wasn't ready when I turned my head and saw Jaebum standing right in front of me, looking DEAD AT ME and all I could do was freeze as all those ahgase arms reached past me to try and grab him. Like Jackson and Jaebum really out here tryna be extra. This is not HK or Korea these American girls will snatch you up and never say sorry for it. As far as the rumors, please do not take everything you hear as fact! All of the people I know can vouch for me, I have never met the boys before outside of this FIRST fan meet, nor do I know anything about secret overseas girlfriends they may have and I am most def not one of them! Also! Please allow the boys their privacy! The dating ban is over so they are free to be with whomever they please and we should support what makes them happy and feel normal! I love GOT7 and I love our ahgase extended family 💕💕💕💕 #turbulenceindc #teamnothingbutthebarricade #got7 #ahgase #jaebum #jb #imjaebum #jaebummie #jaebumgot7 #jacksonwang #blackkpopfans

I, queen of bringing social awareness and black issues to international media,

[mingyus-giraffe]

I haven't been as active on this blog as much, mainly because I haven't really been listening to kpop as much. Like I still kinda know what idols are you to, but I've been sort of hovering. It's been months since I actually took the time to sit down and look forward to, watch and enjoy comebacks. But I still wanna keep this blog, so I would like for it to be more interactive. So if you guys have questions or just wanna talk you can hit me up. I used to do writing, and I've been wanting get back into that and post some of the things I posted onto Wattpad onto here. So if you have any requests or things you would like to see let me know.

Henry's apology + more

I know in my last post I said I was done but I have one more thing to say I just didn't want my post to be too long . Whenever we have issues pertaining to race, I want everyone to ask themselves this one thing,"if the tables were turned would the reaction be the same"? Now if the answer to that is no...then you need to either make every issue "not a big deal" or take every issue seriously. Want an example...fine. Remember Wendy and when she decided how her talent was going to be "mimicking black people" with that same stereotypical black Shit that follows Black people everywhere, remember how black people were rightfully offended and everyone else was...not. And how we were made to feel like we we're whining and she was just playing and it's not that serious. If not, then surprise. Okay well not long after that there was very similar case with a member the GG EXID (Junghwa I believe), where a Tmz member decided to mimic how she talked (in a way she never does with other celebs with accents), and basically it became the stereotypical Asian talk. Well everyone's reaction to this whole thing (kpop fans, citizens of S. Korea and kpop celebs like Amber and Taecyeon) was that it was horrible and racist and joke or not it shouldn't have ever happened. EXID even had a skit about it on Snl Korea. These two cases are really similar but the reaction was polar opposites and I see this a lot and it pisses me off. Why is it that Koreans get the space and opportunity to be offended by stuff and for people to understand and support them but black people are basically punished for wanting respect , IN A GENRE THAT PIGGYBACKS OFF OF OUR SHIT!! Do we not deserve respect? Is it only for Koreans since y'all Love and fetishize their ass so damn much? Like there's obviously a race issue that plays in this. So basically with the Henry issue and a lot of issues honestly, ask yourself if the tables were turned would people be in an uproar. If I went to S. Korea and was insensitive in ANY way about the whole Korea and Japan issue, the way y'all are about the whole black and white issue (and Asian anti blackness tbh), would I be able to get away with saying "it's a joke", or "I didn't know" or would I be told to educate myself and that I need to learn about a culture before just jumping into it? Ask yourself that. If I painted my face pale or yellow, made my eyes really squinty, and did yellow face (which is a thing), would everyone think it's funny or would I be torn to shreds. If I told a kpop idol that "I didn't think he/she could see me" like they say "if I turn off the lights I can't see him/her" would y'all have my back and defend me. We all know the answer to these questions and that's indicative of a whole nother problem.
