idk with all the discourse about who's allowed to sing and who not, I feel like a lot of people forgot why humans sing in the first place, where singing comes from culturally...

Especially the Thai culture and fandom reminded me of that you do not have to be a perfect singer to have fun with each other. Singing is originally a fun or emotional activity to share vibes with your group, village, tell stories. (side note: the pagan folk genre is basically also a good witness of the past in that regard)

The whole Thai actor fan meeting and concert habit seems to be a very Thai culture thing just mixed with pop culture and capitalism.

Observing the Thai folks I see at my local yearly Thai festival, they are very similar. They still party hard even if the singer is not that good. They constantly go to the stage to slip the singers some money or gifts, request them to sing certain songs.

#music #thai culture #bl drama #thai actors #it doesn't always have to be an unforgiving competition ya know #let them have fun #you can just not listen or not show up don't click on it if it's not your thing #that too is a way of showing your disinterest instead of relying on bullying and hurting them intentionally #someone in some rude comment said they are just that mean because if that actor was in a casting show they would lose that hard..#ok but they aren't in a casting show and you aren't asked to be a TV show judge???#that said I am still not a fan of characters singing within the drama setting unless it's relevant for the plot #but outside of it ? i don't mind I either have fun with them having fun or I skip it. literally not that hard #like I really love when they just party and sing for fun during live streams #many of the fan event concert bits are neat too imo #also fan events is how they finance actors and dramas since the dramas themselves don't give that much money #(we get many of them free to watch online!)
