2023 kpop recap ♡ tagged by @ambivartence !

Groups You Started Stanning?: well the big ones of course are wayv and nct (mostly 127 but i tune in for nct u of course of course ... loved golden age) ... i would say i also got really into triples this year musicwise, but i don't actually know the girls

New Ult Biases?: dejun ... my cringe bestie it was inevitable from the moment i saw him cleaning up poop on the puppy interview ...

Idol(s) Who Got The Most Of Your Simping?: idk you all tell me . i think i'm pretty normal KJSGJHBS but i'm sure we can make some arguments for mr. jaehyun and also my husband sehyoon who returned from war god bless

Most Streamed Group(s): cravity, treasure, enhypen, and purple kiss according to my spotify wrapped; nct and wayv definitely are my most streamed in the last couple of months though!

Most Streamed Soloist(s)?: woodz is the only one who made it into my wrapped report, but i'd guess probably also yena, yuri, and maybe eric nam

Top K-Pop Song(s) Of This Year (Opinion Or Streaming, You Choose): nct djj perfume is definitely my song of the year. others i think deserve soty shoutouts: save me kill me - cix, busted - woodz, rising - triples, fate - enhypen, agit - purple kiss, kick it 4 now - tnx, regret it - exo

Top Debut This Year: for the girls kiss of life with shhh ! for the boys ... dojaejung counts right ??

Choreographies You Learned: i don't learn choreo like on purpose HAHA but i can kind of dance along to groovy by cravity

Albums/Merchandise You Bought: too many albums per usual since cravity and treasure both had comebacks, and i just started buying for my new obsessions 🧍🏼‍♀️ i also got a tshirt at the omega x concert, and mary and i got the new truz crossbody bags which are actually so cute ... and we also got wayv seasons greetings to share which i think was a great decision

New Kpop Mutuals You Made?: my new nctuals i love u guys thanks for letting me in and treating me like a bestie even though i just got here 7 years late with my giant iced coffee in hand and sporadic posting around my insane work schedule. and for anyone else who started holding my hand this year, just know ... i don't let go easily or ever ! 😈

Tagging: gonna go through my follow list and tag my most recently made mutuals as inspired by that last question hehe no pressure though! also sorry if we haven't actually interacted before, in my mind we are best friends as soon as u follow me back . just fyi . <3 @minhyukie @bouncingback @neonsbian @irlvernon @lenteur @yutaslaugh @yunogf @baekhyunnybyun and bc i mentioned her in here @dongkwan teehee

✨ content creator year in review ✨

very late to the game but tagged by @chanrizard thanks sa 🥰

first creation / most recent creation

2021 wrapped: top ten songs - my very first creation actually! wild that it's been a year since i started giffing !!

gtkm top 5 skz songs - honestly turned out better than i thought it would :)

2. one of your favorite creations

this favorite + negative space set, which admittedly is not that great and i would def do it a little differently now but still i think it's kinda neat conceptually. also this hyunjin venom set where i started playing around with noise and it kinda worked !

3. a creation you're really proud of

this seokwoo cb stage set . it was swirling around my brain for ages and when i finally made it i really liked the way all the colors turned out

4. a creation that took you forever

BRO THIS GOT7 LULLABY SET 💀 my boys were GHOSTS in that video and this was before i knew what color balance was so i was fighting for my life with like 3 selective color layers to get them to look moderately normal again </33

5. the creation that received the most notes

coincidentally it was also the got7 lullaby set lmao (thanks aghaseblr 😘)

6. a creation you think deserves more notes

fr i don't think any of my gifs deserve notes; i do this for fun and don't expect anything out of it but ofc it's great whenever someone likes or reblogs my stuff . sa said it best that i may know how much effort i put into something or how proud i am of the end result of something and then it doesn't pan out the way i thought it might, but that doesn't mean anybody owes me a note nor does it lessen the value of what i make ! i'm cool with any notes i get it's not that deep for me man

. . . that being said i will highlight any and all treasure content i've made bc they are literal gems and everyone should luv them i think 😋💗

7. a new fandom you joined and a creation you made for it

at this point i'm p sure i have become ur resident lino skztual HOWEVER where my abnews at ?! i love these boys i hope to make more stuff for them in the future !

8. a creation you made that breaks your heart

this mashiho set i made for rachel's birthday . it obviously wasn't heartbreaking at the time but now that he's left it just makes me miss him even more :'(((((

9. a "simple" creation that you really love

this lil set i made for jaehyuk's birthday <3 i really didn't do much to it and big jae gifs bring me joy 🥰

10. a creation that was inspired by another one

my top ten albums set was inspired by this one by siyuan ! i was gonna do jewel cases instead of vinyl but my dumb brain couldn't figure that out in ps so we went with plan b

11. a favorite creation created by someone else

too hard there's sooooo many too many to count

12. favorite content creators for the year

i'm giving all of u a forehead kiss with permission y'all inspire me keep it up ! 💓

hi siyuan! first of all I adore your art, and also this bias tag is so cute and fun! I might send in more in the future if you don’t mind

my bias in skz is Chan 🥰 I think my favorite thing about him is how much I relate to him and his personality. I love his passion and I identify with how he feels anxieties and I too also sometimes feel like I’m foive even though I’m 25 😅 I admire his hard work and his talent and his selflessness so much, and how much he loves and cares for his members.

the moment I knew he was my bias was when I came across this clip. It’s still one of the most precious things I’ve ever seen and I love it with my whole heart 🤗

I love any and all Channie looks, but here’s a few of my faves

I adore anytime Chris really belts his voice and like lets his vocal prowess shine with runs or things like that; particularly in the chorus of Insomnia. I’d love to hear him do a more ballad type track

my wish for Chan is for him to know how much Stays love and appreciate him, because he deserves all the love and praise in the world ❣️

THE SEUNGCHAN CLIP OMFG THATS SO CUTE 🥺 this whole post is so so so cute and all these pictures r SO GOOD and yes i agree i love when chan belts and does all those pretty runs <333 his voice is so so pretty and it reminds me of when he helped cover all i want for christmas for sbs gayo 2021 he was truly shining on stage!!! also when he was harmonizing w himself from gods menu in chan's room uGH

anyways thank u so so much for blessing my inbox w this (and for liking my art hehe <3) and pls pls send more if u'd like^^ i loved reading this

> bias loving hours are (always) open <

content creator appreciation! list five favorite sets you’ve made and send this ask to five other content creators 💖 (no pressure if you don't want to do it or have done this already 😘)

hello maaike hru?? <3 have u been sent this yet? if not i rlly wanna know ur faves if u wanna do it hehe no pressure tho ofc!

hi siyuan!! thank you for sending me this heh i hope you're doing well too 🤗💕

jisung + seventeen's monday to saturday: my creativity last year?? i'm surprised by my own abilities ahahah i really enjoyed working on this one and i still very much like the colours i picked!

haechan + exo-cbx's sweet dreams: an oldie but goldie, the colouring i made for this is very intense but i still think the pinks turned out very pretty! and it was fun to figure out which words from the song i wanted to use for the crossword puzzle

red velvet + rbb: the beginning of a new era.... this one was a gamechanger for me, i've been making edits for almost 9 years and i finally found a style that i like?? it's kind of editorial-ish which allows me to focus on the pictures i use - one of my fave things about making graphics is editing pictures!

red velvet + finale: the 1st panel i made was the 4th one with all of the circles and it had me brainstorming ideas on how to incorporate circular shapes in a few other panels as well. in general, for this one i spent a lot of time on the layout and i think it turned out nicely in the end

red velvet + day 1 website mock-up: idk i just like making mock-ups and using icons! i had fun writing the text for this one hahaha

also special shout-out to my nct dream glitch mode graphic bc i’m also very proud of that one!!

[ambivartence]

hi siyuan! i have some some tbz recs if you're interested :) also, you're so right salty is literally their best b-side. other good ones are break your rules, text me back, make or break, wings and walking in time. keeper and i'm your boy are also fun, and i would recommend watching their monster and o sole mio performances from kingdom, bc what they did with the strings there was insane

omg thank you soooo so very much for these recs!!!! i'm your boy has such a special place in my heart from watching flower snack </3 and also omg i watched performances so long ago thank u for giving me an excuse to rewatch them bc eric w that ponytail for monster..... also i remember watching o sole mio before i was a deobi and just being enthralled by how complex the stage was!! i love all the partner dances in the cages too

[ambivartence]

OH MY GOD BIAS LOVING HOURS????? I WAS MADE FOR THIS, GET READY SIYUAN!!!!!

(i almost want to do two but idk if you wanna read that so i will pick jaemin since i feel like i've been giving my love disproportionately to mark lately <3)

favorite thing about him: he is so sweet and caring to his members 🥺 and he has the best smile 😭 and his life skills?? so attractive. every time he grills meat during things like 7llin???? 😍 also honestly his introvert side is so relatable hahaha and i love that he can literally not say a word in a 30 min video, and it's cool cuz he's just chilling and having fun watching his members <3 the self confidence it takes to do that (and ofc also his members make him feel comfortable being just who he is). i think it's awesome that he does his own thing and doesnt care what you think!!

when i knew he was my bias: i got into dreamies after 127 but the moment i laid my eyes on na jaemin i was done for.....HAHAHAHAH. i think it was dream in wonderland (the one from july 2021) that sold the deal for me

fav looks on him: i literally have a whole series for my fav outfits of his ahahahaha but of course im going to drop some pics here....first, i am a huge fan of the simple tshirt and athletic wear/baseball caps:

but i also love a man in a good suit and jaemin is no exception

but i have SO many fav outfits and this is just a drop in the ocean

fav verse/choreo: i LOVE LOVE the part in my youth where he does his lazy rap in his super deep voice and then he harmonizes with renjun in octaves oh my god i could listen to that part on repeat forever (and sometimes i rewind that part just to listen to it again lmao). also his dancing has really improved in the past few years and i think he does choreo like universe really well (not that i actually know anything about dance). of course the ice cream part in boom is iconic and i'm whipped for that (also the "let's roll" part in ridin lol)

my wish for him: PLEASE PLEASE KDRAMA ACTOR JAEMIN SOON!!!!!! im begging

anything about him: i love that hes handsome as hell but also cute BUT ALSO such a meme all at the same time??? see this post for reference: https://mieohmy.tumblr.com/post/650834428624568320/jaemin-also-jaemin-who-is-somehow-at-the-same

also he's such a model oh my god

i also feel the need to point out that he looks good even with mud on his face:

okay bye im having a heart attack at these pics and this has been an essay on this man, thank you for reading <3333 love you

(and sorry for the weird picture dimensions lmao)

"every time he grills meat during things like 7llin???? 😍" pls i remember our entire cry session over this iasifnoeasefksdfsf also im throwing a tantrum how does he look so good even caked in mud that's so unfair what the hell!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyways this entire essay was so valid and his lazy rap is >>>>>>> in my youth and every should go listen to him and also to renjun (beloved boy) and jaemin truly is the whole package of hot cute chill and absolutely crackhead hilarious and (u already know) i have sUCH a soft spot for him too 🥺🥺

> bias loving hours are (always) open <
