I'm thinking about the erm oxidized copper theory abt a.b.a's hair (which was disproven but like, the theory creator was not at fault, they said they just made a theory and got out of hand by people) and somehow by telephone, aside from people believing it was the real deal, someone in yt comments mentioned that it was alledgely canon that a.b.a had "blood of mercury, hair of copper and skin of stone" which makes me go ???

Where did the skin of stone part come from? Who made it up?? Was it Cause (esp in classic games) she was very inhumanely pale?? (Though her sprite was slightly less pale). That's so funny.

Is this an old theory or something someone made up in yt??

However, this gave me inspiration for a headcanon in which while she doesn't have straight up skin of stone but.. what if she still had skin of mineral?

According to Real Life Paracelsus, in the concept of alchemy's Tria Prima, mercury was the soul, sulfur was the mind, and salt was the body.

So, we can go pretty close to a stone body by technicality without being that huh? In my headcanon, blood would be a physical allegory for the soul, so we could then argue the brain is made from sulfur?

Honestly, my headcanon is baseless, I don't entertain the idea myself (cause that's fucking cursed. Salt skin A.B.A..) and strive and every piece where a.b.a doesn't have a zombie-ish looking skintone disprove it but, hey it's a fun concept and I wanted to share.

Also, if you allow me some shameless self promotion, I actually implemented tria prima motifs in my a.b.a strive design concept from a couple years ago before she got into the game (that's how I know about it lol), though as accesories, rather than her being a walking tria prima.

I’m dealing with a lot of stuff right now including needing surgery for my broken foot.

So I cued up videos from my Gene Kelly YT channel this month. Shameless self-promotion? Maybe…

But it’s not monetized, just my labor of love. There’s nothing wrong with starting the day with a little GK :)

Word of Honor Interview (1)

There’s another Word of Honor interview (by ifeng.com) with the scriptwriter, and this time, also with director Cheng Zhichao. It’s written like a proper article this time, so I’ll translate excerpts from it.

On the ending credits song 天涯客* (listen on YT)

Both director Cheng Zhichao and scriptwriter Xiao Chu have endless praise for the two lead actors. Both actors get along very well on the set, and they also sang the postlude song together.

The song was something that Cheng Zhichao had looked forward to from the start. “Because I felt that they were both very well suited for their roles, and I knew that Zhang Zhehan had experience in musicals professionally, I’ve also heard that he has had concerts and things like that.”    

In reality, when he listened to the song after (the actors) recorded it, “the first time I heard Gong Jun’s singing... I was ‘amazed’.”

During filming, Gong Jun would often complain about the standard of his singing, but at the time, Cheng Zhichao had never heard him sing before, “so this was why when the song was completed, I had dared to listen to it.”

It took Xiao Chu (scriptwriter) two to three hours to finish writing it. She had so much that she wanted to say to the characters, and there were so many things that Zhou Zishu and Wen Kexing wanted the audience to know. She hid them all between the lines of the lyrics.

As to whether the audience can accept these things, Xiao Chu again replied using a quote from the drama, “how can it be possible to please everyone; all I seek is to have no regrets*”.

T/N: Shameless self promotion of the super lovely lyrics that WKX sang (to ZZS)

*Youku is being a dick and not giving us the official title in English **岂能尽如人意，但求无愧于心, it’s a slight variation on a famous motto since ancient times in China. If you watch wuxia and even xianxia dramas subbed, you’ve probably heard it being and not realized what it is. It’s in Jin Yong’s Condor Heroes, in Legend of Fei, cql and more.

WOOSAN FANSERVICE

what is real and what is not real? now, a lot of people think woosan is fanservice because how obvious and in your face the are. while i do think they do give very obvious fanservice, i believe with my whole heart that their relationship is very genuine. 

now let’s discuss fanservice, while i do think every company advises their groups to give fanservice and it’s literally ingrained in their minds(kpop idols) on how to give fanservice. whether it’s sexy dancing, acting cute, or passing along a sheet of paper to a member with your mouth, san constantly exposing his sarms.. these are all clear indications of fanservice. i want to be clear, fanservice in my opinion is always obvious. company’s do not emotionally invest in shipping the way you think they do. because why would they invest on giving obvious hints that their idols are dating? especially in a place like korea? their careers would literally be over. it would literally affect everyone in the group, including them and it would not just ruin the group, but any career path they decide to go in in korea. 

so, i’m gonna show you guys the difference between fanservice and genuine reactions when it comes to woosan. 

let’s talk about fanservice.

let’s talk about this whole ass VCR that KQ put together for woosan, it’s clearly fanservice, but i thought it was interesting the way they filmed it. the way this was filmed was like, they’re each others others other half. which we know they often say this a lot. so my question is the company capitalizing on their relationship or are they supporting? could be both? now, i know it sounds crazy as the most important thing for every company is to make money. even though this does not exclude KQ, i’ve noticed that ateez has a lot more freedom than other kpop artist. they let them eat as much as they want, they spoil them with presents all the time which is proven with their vlogs. they give their idols freedom to speak on things, like hongjoong really says what he wants. especially when he wants to give atiny a reality check. lol. they also give them creative freedom, allowing hongjoong to speak on such a heated topic like race during his black and white cover is really something. but are they still a company whose best interest is to make money? yes. let’s talk about some other moments during the tour.

these moments were all during the tour, the woosan umbrellas, the hand holding the making hearts with each other and even the most obvious one of all which is the one where they had to promote the hats for the tour and KQ picked woosan to do it. ya’know, very cute, but also clearly fanservice. lol. though, there’s an interesting moment, which i don’t think is fanservice, and that moment was during the time woo hugged seonghwa and jongho was like san’s gonna get jealous, and san was like no no, even tho he looked so jelly(you can find a lot of these moments on the yt channel skzo planet, credit to them, they’re great.)  let’s continue. let’s talk about the asmr/lie detector video on yt. which i consider less obvious fanservice because people tend to think these moments are not planned. i know why am i taking the best moments awayyyyyyy. ;c

it’s clear that KQ understands that woosan is the most popular ship, because they have them go on these programs together which highlights their chemistry and interactions together. i think a lot of these moments here are fanservice but i also think they’re genuine. like their moment afterward where they have a deep conversation about their feelings. while i do think the company sets these up to capitalize off their relationship, i don’t think it’s to the point where they give them a script to read and say, “hey, memorize this script” no no. lmfao. if there’s one thing the company’s understand completely is that fans want real human beings. not robots. which is why vlive exist. it’s also one of the reasons kpop is preferred from western pop. they understand that fans love real people and genuine reactions between their fans. so you have to remember that. i think they just seized an opportunity to capitalize off their ship or support, who knows? they seem very grateful towards their company.

here’s the lie detector one, obviously, the company sets these up. which i think is ultimately a fanservicey move. but again, i don’t think the company gives them any script to read these are just their genuine feelings. in which san said woo is his other half and that he would literally give his kidney away for him. the company sets these circumstances up, but they do this to highlight their relationship. the company has them do many things together, but i honestly do not think they force them to pretend to act like bestfriends. i mean that’s just outrageous. lol. 

yup, i have to go there, yes, i’m going to take away everything you’ve ever loved away from you, because this is obvious fanservice. the stares, the sexy sexy dancing tHE STARES. listen, these people are well-trained professionals, never forget that. they know what fans want. while i do think this dance is probably the most common of fanservice for woosan stans i don’t think the reactions are fanservice. there’s just some moments where woo gets really shy and flustered. because i do think san makes him genuinely shy because this boy can be very tense and reek of pure devilish and demonic behavior. woo is someone who has a very commanding presence and demanding personality, and he seems fearless and shameless at times, but there are plenty of moments of san making woo completely flustered and nervous with a simple look. which i think is genuine since discomfort is very noticeable because it’s almost always an immediate reaction to something.

now let’s talk about genuine interactions (a lot of these were probably mentioned in my woosan relationship analysis).

let’s talk about their relationship in general, outside the cameras, that already ultimately prove that their relationship isn’t fanservice. now something that we learned a while back during the christmas vlive with the woosansang drama(i’ve done a post about this). is that woo and san hang out so much with each other that the other members are jealous. obviously, this has nothing to do with the company. they just genuinely hang around each other because they like each other. we know this to be true because the members explicitly say this and have mentioned before. i also did a post where woo mentioned san at least 5-7 times during a vlive with jongho. 

they literally spent the whole day together guys, like you just don’t spend that much time with somebody you don’t like. there’s a bunch of kpop groups with ships who don’t even hang out in real life. they’re literally hanging out with members you least expect them to be. lmfao. it just shows you that the reality is that most kpop ships are not real. because to me, it’s obvious that they aren’t that close irl and that’s the most important factor here. i wanna talk about some other important moments in the woosansang vlive.

there talking about real circumstances here, and yeosangs grievances with woo, ‘cause he feels sad that yeosang doesn’t hang around him anymore. this happened a few months ago. so don’t worry.

mingi said that this was a private conversation that he had with yeosang, so again these are private matters. just in case you don’t know company’s do not like discord in the group, which is why they freaked out during the recent vlive when mingi didn’t have yeosang’s number even though i don’t even have my siblings number. loool.

this is what yunho said when woo wanted him to go to the bathroom with him, and he was sulky ‘cause he only hung out with san. now let’s move onto how clingy they are. 

let’s start with san’s vlog, yes, i said san’s vlog(side eye’s woo). 

this vlog, that was supposed to be san’s, included moments with woo, more so than the other members. they even ate together, and they often do eat together from what i can tell. woo says he goes out to eat with san to relieve stress. he also called him during that time on vlive with yeosang to go out with him. which is why i thought the call was genuine, because they always seem to eat together. i mean the call wasn’t even on speaker and the fact that woo used aegyo with him is also telling to me. do you think the company sets them on dinner dates to please the fandom? lol. no there are other moments of them clinging and you can find them throughout my other posts. but i just wanted to stress that they’re not clingy for fanservice, they’re this way because they’re naturally close and intimate in real life. i have never seen a kpop ship share this type of intimacy.

here’s another moment, where they went out to eat together, mind you they were asking seonghwa if he was happy to join them as if they were an already married couple. i wanna add the moments here with seonghwa wanting to join woosan, and them being like “no” or “we’ll think” about it, but i’ll leave that for my woosanhwa analysis. 

let’s talk about the fact that they created their own ship name, and them being happy about it because i honestly don’t think that if they were not okay with it and the company was forcing it, they wouldn’t milk it for all it was worth.

let’s talk about the ship name and the thousands of other stuff the’ve come up with. could the company have come up with woosan, possibly, but you can’t convince they sat a round table discussing the thousands of handshakes they’ve come up with. you also can’t convince me that the company made woo go online to find a special meanings for a friend that stays with you forever(amicus ad aras). as i said before the company isn’t as invested as you all may think they are. the second one is literally them introducing themselves as woosan to some poor person recording them. like you can’t tell me that they aren’t proud to be woosan. now i know a lot of people get annoyed on twitter because some fans don’t know how not to mention woo without san when he’s doing a solo live (death stare at those fans). but the thing is it just goes to show that they’re comfortable enough with the ship that people can tell that it’s genuine. are there some moments where they’re uncomfortable sure? but is it the company’s fault. i don’t think so, i think it’s the fans(some shippers) that require them not to be their own person. esp woo. 

the stares, to me, the eyes never lie, and most people realize this, even people who’ve only had a gentle bump into the fandom notice the way the look at each other. even in the recent vlive, but you can tell woo tends to avoid san’s stare. even though woo wants to seem comfortable around san to not make it seem obvious, it’s very obvious that he makes an effort not to. i literally had an online friend that ships vkook ask if they were close during the recent vlive because woo never looked at san. xD lol. which is another strong point i want to make. while there are some moments of woo clinging to san on camera. most of the time he does it off camera. i don’t think the company asked to look like they were in love but here we are. one last thing is...

is their trip to jeju, in which seonghwa coicidentally went as well. now this is a family vacation where all the members went with their respective families. now, a lot of you may not know but during a fansign woosan planned a trip to jeju. seonghwa just happened to be there with his family as well. lol. i wanted to mention this because obv the company doesn’t really have any say in the matter. but also because i mean they’re on vacation together. like do you know how many groups are desperate to be on vacation away from each other? lmfao. like nah woosan planned to go on vacation together. while seonghwa talked a lot about it, woo did not and continued brushing it off which makes me wonder....

anyway, that’s it.

oh, here’s a bonus for you greedy ones.

i wanna mention a moment that i thought was interesting. which was a game they played on kbs a few moments ago. they were given a penalty to kiss each other. which is obv fanservice, but i do think reactions matter. as soon as it’s mentioned san’s eyes automatically go to woo? he doesn’t have much time to think about it, his body just reacts, why woo tho hmmm san? 

now, i wanna also mention the moment after, which a lot of people were confused by. like why is he touching himself like that so suddenly? lol. so what i think is happening is that san is “preening”. he’s experiencing nervous excitement and he’s stroking himself. when your attracted to someone your skin becomes sensitive. esp your lips and it feels good to touch. 

woo also whined and hit mingi out of jealousy. lmfao. 

anyway. that’s it.

Who was Itchaboi based off of?

Oh I think you know who. 

We wanted to tell a story about cults but couldn’t figure out our angle. I watch a LOT of YT though and there’s certain channels that really push a cult-like agenda to their followers. They’re all about being shitty to everyone around them but then they promote their brand of being a “maverick” or whatever. They push their merch to children in the most shameless of ways (that also break FCC laws). 

Since Remy is such a follower of Cricket, it felt like a good chance to explore how an impressionable kid like Remy might fall for a modern day snake-oil salesman like Logan or Jake Paul. (whoops)

Do we even need to go far? Today's behavior during sdc live on yt, the comments were atrocious and clearly showed that they came there not to support YB, but to shove gyegye to the places where no one invited him. And it's Youku official acc on YT, like how shameless you need to be to shove your gyegye there, to demonstrate the world how you only care about YB when he's a tool to promote your real fave. They never stay in their lane. And people can't stand them not because the are shippers but because of HOW they ship. And thank you for you support, anon, have a good day
