I want to leave some twitter links about what is going on in South Korea right now since I don't think this issue is so popular (SA!)

We need to understand that South Korean governmet treats sa cases like nothing. They don't care about women, they live in a country that is HATEFUL towards women. And only foreign people can help korean women.

Please spread if you can!

i talked about this in the tags of a different post, but i can't get over how xo kitty literally created one of the messiest plots possible for the three guys who aren't even really the focus. i spent most of my time biting my fingernails over small kernels of potential conflict with these losers more than the fucking pregnancy storyline and kitty's mum's first love. like they drew me in with the utter craziness that i kind of wish kitty's storyline had. dae, q and minho are bonkers in a fun way; kitty's storyline is bonkers in a boring, unsatisfying way.

i mean, think about it.

there's three roommates here: dae, minho and q. and ALL of them have such a messy relationship that is on the precipice of absolute disaster

q and dae: dae is poor; he clearly can't afford to go back to school without his scholarship. if he finds out that q knew about the cheating that florian did in order to stay in school and how that messed him up, he's definitely going to tell on florian and potentially get him expelled. dae might even break the friendship, since what kind of friend dooms you for their boyfriend of a couple of months? q is basically sitting on information that damns two people and he has to pick which person he's going to damn: his friend or his boyfriend.

dae and minho: most of the messiness of minho and dae comes from the fact that minho likes kitty and so does dae. the idea that minho and kitty might have been in love and screwing him over led him to pick a fight with the guy. in minho's case, he's kind of resentful that kitty was with him, and he didn't get his chance. dae let him go only after kitty swore that she wasn't into him, and it seems like he assumed that minho also wasn't into her. how is dae going to react when he finds out that minho confessed to his ex-girlfriend five minutes after their breakup? this relationship is probably the one that'll be exploited in the next season, and it's going to so bad in the worst way.

q and minho: this isn't really as messed up as the other two, but it's definitely messed up because of the other two. q is basically sitting on information that damns Dae, and minho definitely values his friendship with dae; he literally antagonizes kitty because he values and prioritizes dae over her. he's definitely going to take it well if q sits on something like this. if he finds out what happens with q, he's probably not going keep his secret. on q's side, minho is fucking up their friendship by professing his love for kitty, which could exacerbate q's guilt for sitting on that information. i could 100% see q picking dae's side in the inevitable fallout between dae and minho because of his guilt over dae

Reblogging this to save some lives

REALLY IMPORTANT AND USEFUL STUFF TO SCRIPT IF YOURE A KPOP SHIFTER

∘₊ ✧───────────────────✧₊∘

○ You understand, you can speak and write Korean fluently

Just an obvious one

○ You understand Korean meme culture, and you actually find it funny😭🙏🏾. Like well-known jokes and memes that are popular from movies or songs or stuff like that.

This is so important for foreigners like me since I don't know jack-SHIT about the memes and jokes over there

○ You don't forget to use the correct honorifics for your family members and group members vs your manager and people you aren't close with. Take these just in case

BANMAL = Informal language

Hyeong; Hyung = Literal meaning: “older brother” Is also used to call: A male friend or a male sibling who’s older than you (as a male). Used by: A younger male to call an older male friend or sibling

Noona; Nuna = Literal meaning: “older sister” is also used to call a female friend or a female sibling who’s older than you (as a male). Used by: A younger male to call an older female or sibling

Oppa = Literal meaning: “older brother” is also used to call a male friend or a male sibling who’s older than you (as a female). Is used by a younger female to call an older male friend or sibling

Unnie; Unni = Literal meaning: “older sister” Is also used to call a female friend or a female sibling who’s older than you (as a female). Used by a younger female to call an older female or sibling

Namdongsaeng = Literal meaning: “younger brother”. Is used to call a younger male sibling or any male who’s younger than you (as a female/male). Used by an older male/female or an older sibling to call a male who’s younger

Side note: You don’t use this word when you call them. Call them by name.

Yeodongsaeng = Literal meaning: “younger sister” Is used to call a younger female sibling or any female who’s younger than you (as a female/male). Used by an older male/female or an older sibling to a female who’s younger than them

Side note: You don’t use this word when you call them. Call them by name.

JONDAENMAL = Formal language

Ssi = Literal meaning: “Mr./Miss/Mrs.” Is used to call someone who you need to show some respect to. Used for business environment

Nim = Literal meaning: “Mr./Miss/Mrs.” (It’s more polite and respectful than Ssi)

○ You are highly respected, loved and admired amongst Koreans and other Kpop idols

I think that although it is great to have international fans, you should also have a strong Korean fanbase since that is where the genre was born

It also helps to be talked about positively from both popular and underrated K-pop groups. Whether about your looks, your personality, your skills or whatever. This shows you are actually very interesting and more than the general public see your potential.

○ You perfectly match the Korean beauty standard, You are the Korean beauty standard OR your beauty is so original and rare that Koreans love it even though it doesn't match their standard

I personally scripted the third one because even though I match some small parts of the beauty standard like long slim fingers, clear soft skin and perfect teeth, my overall appearance does NOT follow the standard. I am still a slim thick pear, I am still black and I still have textured curly hair.

○ You can match / have the same humour with other kpop idols you're close friends with. Also script you are intentionally and unintentionally funny

This connects with the Korean meme culture point I made. You have GOT to understand what your own friends are joking about and find it funny too as well as BE funny, cus god knows how many times a meme reference is gonna be made amongst your members while you are doing one of those challenges like RUN BTS and you don't get what they are talking about😭

note to self💌 : gonna make smore later — 🍊💭
