tw suicide
pls don't read that stupid article and give the writer any more clicks but she wrote "in 2017, the same year shinee's jonghyun committed suicide, bts had a partnership with unicef" or it was something like that and it's just so fucking crazy and disgusting how a self proclaimed "serious reporter" would mention someone death just to uplift bts...it's beyond fucked up and she also said that bigbang's TOP had a drugs scandal (it was a weed scandal but she tried to make it seem worse) and she gave credit to armys for their political involvement during the philippines elections and some filipinos got rightfully upset because of that because she completely disregarded the protest natives have been doing for days and acted like armys where the only people who cared about the issue. and when she got backlash on twitter she started complaining about kpop fans as if armys weren't sending death threats and racist messages to other kpop journalists weeks ago. it makes me livid how some people have no empathy or morals whatsoever.
(also it's so ironic how she's disrespecting jonghyun in an article praising bts when that man used to be one of the most politically active idols and to this day i haven't seen anyone who is as outspoken as he was he single-handedly had a law changed in korea because he talked about it on twitter and he showed support to palestine and had people make petitions wanting him to get kicked out of his group for being an lgbt ally but sure keep running your mouth and ignoring all his achievements just to feed your false narrative about bts paving the way for everything in this industry)
oh fuck RIGHT off. well that explains all the threads i saw of people bringing up all the topics jonghyun brought attention too. would it kill people to do a modicum of research. like come on, it feels like i do more research for my silly little opinions on this blog alsdkfs. tbh that just sounds like very irresponsible and ill-informed journalism and i can't believe that got published. well i can actually, but i'm disappointed it got published.
#tw dec 18#making music for unicef doesn't actually DO anything u dipshit#the only laws they're actively getting changed are the ones that are exempting them from service lmao#also like. i don't like top all that much but like. the man clearly does not want to be in the public eye anymore leave him tf alone#text#answers#ngl western media does speak more callously about the deaths of public figures so im not entirely sure it was meant negatively#but that doesn't exempt you from having empathy and like. basic common sense abt the topic you're writing about#regardless of if it's more common it's still disrespectful
