I have been heavily going through Donjin feels though. I wrote him into a fanfiction series I’m writing for another account just to remember him while he’s in the military and… I don’t know I just miss him more. I just want to hear that silly guy rap, and I want to see him smile. I hope he’s getting a lot of support in the military from others. I wish I could send him letters!

Yeongtae, I miss you so much it hurts. Thinks will be better when you return

Dojin: I scare people a lot because I walk very softly and they don’t hear me enter rooms. So when they turn around, I’m just kinda there and their fear fuels me

2019 was a big year for Angelico Entertainment. Alongside debuting their biggest female act yet, VENUS, just a year prior, they also struck gold with their first ever in-house boy group: LoveOutLoud, abbreviated to L.O.L for branding purposes. Starting off as a ten-member lineup, L.O.L became an almost instant KPOP darling, still being girl group stans token boy group to stan.

Despite their bright and youthful branding, the inner workings of L.O.L are quite dark as their mistreatment goes back to their pre-debut days. It's rare for there to be an L.O.L comeback without a member sick or injured, as their promotional schedules are grueling and stacked. The members, despite being well into their careers at this point, haven't had a break in nearly four years.

The notorious Angelico CEO, Son Jinhwa, would say there's no time for breaks. Their momentum is still building; if they take a break, they'll be forgotten.

The boys took those words to heart, publicly denouncing the need for breaks between releases and saying they enjoy promoting as much as they do.

Well, almost all of them did.

By the end of 2021, they dropped to seven members, with three of the members leaving on what seemed like a bimonthly basis. First started with Siho leaving in March, citing creative differences and mistreatment but he would not leave Angelico. Instead, he would stay and produce under the label until his contract ran up. Fans speculate the final nail in the coffin for Siho was when other L.O.L member Jesse was given the spot as producer despite Siho being promised the role. Once Siho's contract with Angelico was up, he would become a producer and music video director.

Next to leave was Yadam in August, citing physical exhaustion and contractual disagreements as his reasons. Yadam was a beloved and well-known member of the group for his vocals and visuals, originally holding the spot as the official visual. He would go on to sue Angelico Entertainment for mistreatment, claiming that they did not allow him proper vocal rest, permanently damaging his vocal cords. Though the case made it far, the two parties settled out of court. He would go on to debut as a soloist and actor in 2023 after a much-needed break.

The last member to officially leave L.O.L would be Asher in December of that same year, claiming mental health struggles as his reason for leaving. Asher was one of the more popular members internationally for his bright and out-there personality, which seemed to dim as the years went on. He would return to America the same year and become a thriving social media influencer and actor in the States, having a following of 1.7 million on YouTube, 7.1 million on TikTok, and 5.2 million on Instagram.

Currently, Akio, the seventh member, is on a hiatus because of an ankle injury he obtained in 2023. He has not been an active member with the group for nearly a year now, leaving many fans to worry he will be the next one to drop from the lineup.

The group sits pretty and happy on top of the boy group brand rankings, being some of the most recognizable and beloved faces in the KPOP industry at the moment, but are they really as bright and happy as they seem?

selections from my week in media [18-24 june 2023]

Click through for kpop ramblings, underwhelming dramas, entertaining dramas, and way too many parenthetical thoughts.

[anticipating]

SHINee - It’s finally comeback week! Maybe we’ll get a performance in the suits? And I’m excited that Minho & Taemin will be on Amazing Saturday.

[listening]

Bouncy / ATEEZ - It’s an earworm at this point, but I’m not mad about it.

Pentagon - Based on this post, I made up a bunch of playlists and have been working my way through them [standouts so far: Like This, Daisy, Shine, Do or Not, and Critical Beauty]. I like them, although I will say they sound “stereotypically kpop” to my ears right now. I don’t consider this to be a bad thing, it’s just that it’s what I would have expected kpop to sound like before I actually started listening to it. For reference: the first kpop I heard was SHINee thanks to Boys Over Flowers, but BTS is who got me started listening to it. Then I figured out who SHINee were and have mostly stayed there. I tend to like groups with clear-cut ‘leader’ voices* so SHINee is exactly what I love.

But it is still early days, and I have not watched any of Pentagon’s promo content so I have very little idea who the members are or what their voices sound like (that said, there is one guy that is starting to stand out - Kino I think?). In that vein, if you are their fan please feel free to send me links (or tag me). I’ll be looking for guides to watch too, but I’m sure some are better than others.

*What I’m calling groups with one or two people whose voices are distinct enough to stand out without knowing the members (whether that person is the official ‘leader’ or not). SHINee is of course my prime example, with both Jonghyun’s and Onew’s voices clearly standing out. This isn’t a quality or value judgement, my ears are just very good at voice recognition so that’s the thing I focus in on most of the time.

TL;DR: Pentagon is great and I want to keep listening/learning until I know them better. (I wasn’t kidding about the playlists. I think I’m up to six. LOL)

An Elegant Solution by giraffeter - MDZS fix-it - reread

[watching]

The First Responders - If I had known it ended on a cliffhanger I would have waited until season two was out (MDL says it’s coming August 2023). It was mostly okay. There was a corruption subplot that wasn’t integrated well at all and felt shoe-horned in. On the flip side, I really liked Dojin, the firefighter of the lead triad. Said triad is a great candidate for ot3-ness (which I loved), even though the show went with the tired old love triangle trope. The cases of the week were all interesting and heart-breaking by turns.

King the Land - This show is still firmly in romcom territory and honestly I’m loving it. I haven’t watched a chaebol kdrama in awhile, so the tropes aren’t old or annoying, but instead cheesy and funny.

Love Tractor - It’s still just okay. It’s a critique cliche, but the two leads feel like they are in different dramas. One is in a light and cute country mouse/city mouse romcom, the other is in a moody finding yourself YA romance. (It will surprise no one who has read anything in my #tmtrx watches drama tag which one I prefer.) The appearance of the boyfriend this week was the highlight of the episode. That final conversation was so so good. I hurt for both of them. It’s a painful truth that high school-to-college relationships rarely work out.

Shigatsu no Tokyo wa (Tokyo in April is) - I think I should have waited on this one. We’re two episodes into an eight episode show of 30-minute episodes and I’m getting the slow drip feeling. The problem is that I love it so I’ll probably keep torturing myself by watching week to week.

SHINee World IV concert - Wow. SHINee is back! It was an incredible concert. They really are live vocal kings.

Step By Step - Fits neatly into my ‘delicious angst’ file. What a great episode.

W Two Worlds - Rewatched the whole series this week. I love it so much. I wish they’d made a tie-in manhwa (or at least printed a collection of the manhwa art), because I love the art style they used for it in the show. I also wish the boxed set wasn’t so ding-dang expensive because apparently it includes a director’s cut?!

Even after time passes, don’t wake up like a dream

Don’t forget each other, I’ll never let you go

I’ve always been a multi for as long as I’ve been a kpop fan, but I don’t think I’ve ever been so passionate about a group until I met ENOi.

It was Cheeky that introduced me to them, but it was their personalities, teamwork, and drive that really made me fall for them. With BeloVIN’ RadiON and later, We Like ENOi, they (and their editors) never failed to make me laugh or brighten my day. They were absolutely one of my biggest sources of joy and emotional support throughout 2020 and for that I will be forever grateful.

I don’t know what their plans are or what the future holds, but I do know that I wouldn’t have traded this past year with them for anything. I will continue rooting for and supporting them with all my heart no matter what path they take, and I will always be thankful for the precious memories they worked so hard to give to us. They’ve all done so well, and I’m so proud to call myself a RAYS.

For the seven boys who have come to mean so much to me, who became my starlight on the darkest nights:

#ThankYouENOi

I can’t believe Kyuhyun is enlisting 😭 Hopefully the enlistment goes well for him 🫶 I don’t really know how the enlistment works necessarily but maybe him and Yeongtae will see each other!

Yongtae promised a nice picnic in a pretty flower field and now here he is at barely 10 in the morning with his fingers knuckle deep inside you. You moaned feeling the tips of his fingers hit your sweet spot, the way his fingers glided so easily along your walls causing your eyes to roll back.

“You’re so cute like this baby. Your cute sun dress bunched around your waist. You even wore cute panties for me didn’t you?” Yongtae chuckled watching you grab the picnic blanket with both hands. “I think we picked a good spot yeah?” Yongtae was talking so calm like he wasn’t finger blasting you into oblivion. “The morning sun looks so nice against you skin baby, makes you glow even more. And such a cute little dress you just wanted to look pretty for me didn’t you baby? Such a pretty girl and so hungry for attention down there aren’t you?”

You let out a whine feeling Yongtae’s tongue swiping against your clit. Your hips jerked up in response. Yongtae had pulled your panties to the side but you could tell he was getting a little frustrated which is why he took one leg out of them your pretty lace panties now hanging on one of your legs. Yongtae liked having easy access which is why he loved when you didn’t wear any panties at all. But when you did it wasn’t a big deal or an obstacle for him. He knew you liked to look pretty for him and enjoyed it even more when he took your panties off of you. “I can feel your pussy sucking up my fingers precious. Hmm, do you want my dick?” At Yongtae’s words you excitedly let out a short little squeal your walls squeezing around his fingers. Yongtae’s fingers pushed all the way into you pressing down against your walls causing your back to arch off the blanket. “Y-yes please Y-yongt-t-t” you struggled to speak his fingers were fucking you so good your mind wandered over his fat cock being inside you.

“Sit up baby. You want my dick now right? You’re so hungry for it I can feel the way you clenched when I brought it up.” Yongtae grabbed one of your hands while he reached around to hold your back as he helped lift you up. The spot you picked was surrounded by pretty flowers and a big tree that provided just enough shade but not enough to completely block out the sunshine.

Yongtae rested against the tree starting to unzip his pants just enough to pull out his fully erect cock. You lifted your leg over him to straddle is lap and Yongtae held your hips as you slowly lowered yourself into his dick shaking and moaning loadly as your pussy sucked up his cock like a vacuum. Your head fell back as soon at you felt the base of his cock at your entrance. “Aw you were hungry weren’t you baby, you sucked up my entire cock in that cute pussy of yours huh? Such a good girl.” Yongtae’s words had you whining, his hands resting on your thighs squeezing at the skin before moving up under your sundress.

“Ride me baby, the faster you make me cum the faster I’ll let you cum.”

@somesortofstan hahahahah GETTING FUCKED IN A CUTE LIL SUNDRESS IS MY TOP FUCKING KINK AHHHHH I’ve thought about it with Byeongkwan, Seunghyub, KB and now Dojin haha. It would be so pretty with KB omg I don’t wanna get lost in those thoughts but Yongtae I hope you like it! I had the thought this morning while we were talking hehe. My second Dojin smut and let me tell you is was a lot easier to write
