Jonghyun I Miss You Alrdy - Tumblr Posts

How much can society expect from one person? Having performers/idols/singers/rappers/dancers throwing themselves into huge spotlight doesn’t give you the right to expect anything from them. They are the artist, the creator. You have a choice as the public, to follow or to unfollow. Your “constructive criticisms” wouldn’t change anything in terms of their creation, but will leave a huge scar on the creator. 

Jonghyun committed suicide because he thought that he isn’t talented, he is not at the level of expectation deemed by society. He felt pressured, and unsatisfied with himself, but he continued to work on his flawless “flaws”. 

He’s tired now. He wants to give up because no matter how hard he works, society will never appreciate him; will never give him a chance, because they are to suck up with stereotypes and trends. They have forgotten about originality. 

“But he has millions of fan,” you said. 

Let me tell you this, no matter how much compliment you receive, with just one hate mail or what people call “constructive criticisms” will destroy the creators’ mood because all they have in mind is to satisfy everyone, and make everyone happy. 

Performers are humans too and human makes mistakes. They get sick and tired of trying, overthink at times and feel pain too. We, as fans/society/public, should appreciate performing arts as it is. It’s ok to have different taste. You can always go search for something suitable for you instead of leaving criticisms or trying to change someone’s style.

Before it’s too late everybody. Do something about it.
