@ seijoon_hwang

시간이 흐르면서 갈수록 진해지는 향기와 가치. 지난 12년과 앞으로의 미래가 공존하는 시간. 너희들의 눈물의 의미를 알기에 같이 울수밖에. 거봐 하길 잘했지? #vixx#빅스

The scent and value that gets stronger as time goes by Time for the past 12 years and the future to coexist I can't help but cry together because I know the meaning of your tears See, you did a good job, right?

[1eos]

the line distribution thing still pisses me off all these years later like if your fave cant sing just say that some of us want to listen to songs that actually sound good okay especially people demanding leo needed to give his lines up like NO have you heard him sing??? he deserved all those lines and tbh he deserved to sing the whole song solo bc thats how good he is this isnt charity argue with a wall. the only time i care about line distribution is like when you have the main vocal who has proven time and time again to be the best singer of the group but gets 3 seconds of lines bc the company is trying to push the nasally screeching popular visual on us instead but other than that if the song bangs and the person with the "unfair" lines sounds good who gives a shit let the main vocal main vocal

you better say that shit!!!!!!! its literally sooooo annoying bc a lot of ppl will be mad that a main vocal who is there to fucking sing is getting all the lines just to be contrary? or feel like they stan the 'underdog'???? that's cute but i don't want my songs arranged based on who's the underdog i want the strongest singers with the nicest tones to get the most parts so that the song is fucking listenable. and to be honest the vixx line distribution was more than generous bc they made leo sing high almost exclusively 😭😭😭😭 when he couldve taken the jobs of all the lower register members w no sweat as proven by him taking hakyeon/hongbin lines in that mcountdown perf and blending in seamlessly. vixx couldve been a trio a duo they couldve all been leo solo songs like jelpi was VERY generous as is

and im the same as you like idk why line distribution is an issue if the real vocals are getting their lines. like its crazy that theyll have opera trained idols getting 3 seconds in a song but ppl really be mad that the mfs who are there to look good ONLY don't have a chance to ruin the song????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? are we forgetting music is supposed to be pleasing to the EARS?

[theinfinitedivides]

you're influencing me to start watching bad and crazy!! i'm extra motivated because i discovered that cha hakyeon stars in it and he was my vixx bias for a hot minute LMAO

very good. my job is to convert people to the knowledge of our Lord and Saviors of the BAC cast, Hakyeon included

Breaking The Hiatus

I experienced life with less social media for the past three years I didn’t write here. Less Facebook and Instagram but Twitter, I can't. It will always be may kpop-haven.

I dropped keeping records of my day to day activity and probably getting back here for entries cause I miss expressing myself and hoping that people bumping into this page may pick up something good.

Also, It's good to look back and see how I've grown emotionally, spiritually, and mentally.

So hello to you if you're reading this. Declaring blessing over blessing to you and your household; praying for God's protection to your family members from head to foot and all the abundance this life could offer.

Going back, I've been through the process of healing in the past 3 years. It wasn't easy and I can say I haven't fully recovered. Despite of everything, my heart is more than willing to love as much as it can or even more than it can.

Two Days & 1 Night S4 was my healing show. I found Kim Seonho to be my greatest healing warrior. He's also my biggest "BUDOL" (it means implusive buying in Filipino)

I added his merch to my fair share of growing kpop collection. Oh and also Ravi's (from VIXX) merch. I instantly became a HoRavi shipper and later on a solid OT6.

I got a new job title, unexpectedly and not part of my life's plan definitely.

The Lord is always faithful to His promises. I am deeply amazed how he lead me to where I am now, fit for exactly what I need just at the right time. 

For now, I'm a daughter fulfilling my duties to the best people who brought me up and showered me with unconditional love.

Behind everything, I am a woman full of faith, hope, and love to give despite all the silent pain I've been through.

looking ahead

kpop wishes for 2023

i do actually want better for boy groups. this year we saw a lot of freshness amongst girl groups - it seems like we're finally, officially out of the blackpink & itzy inspired edm/girl crush/quirky girl crush phase and while some groups have done this well, i'm glad we're out. in particular we have the return of christian horse girl music with ily:1 and csr, a fresh sound (for lack of a better word) derived from black house and rnb - new jeans and aaa- that's seeing some really effective intermingling with more traditional kpop sounds - fifty fifty. we still have "girl crush" but much more refined with lesserafim. we have pop punk with choi yena (*some men are doing this as well, but overall less than there should've been/many who took it in a "noise music but with guitars this time" kind of way). we have more unique "elegant" concepts with strong beats and hooks like ive and kwon eunbi. we have straight up experimental with billlie. the rise of stayc in general. with many of the top ggs, the sale cutoffs required to be a "top" or "midtier" gg have ballooned (so much so that i'd personally like nugupromoter to change their criteria to be honest) but the men...what freshness has come out of this year? that's not to say AT ALL that men did nothing good this year, or that all bgs all sounded the same this year. but 2022 for boy groups has not been clearly distinguishable from 2021, in my opinion. unfortunately, i'm not sure where to look for the "newness" that i'm hoping for. the companies that i think have some potential all have little reason to actually do anything new: sm (theyre too wrapped up in kwangya for me to take recent releases seriously tbh, they also have no stake in creating something fully new), kq (ateez has a very unique concept, i think they have to prove with their new bg that theyre not a one trick pony), hybe (depends too much on the creative director. trainee A disbanding is interesting because it seemed like the direction they were suited for wasn't very fresh? it was giving skz/early bts/enhypen. i wonder if this means concept change?). groups that have potential but idk: tempest, nine.i, onlyoneof (who are already delivering on freshness but their current project is on its 3rd year so.... (pretty sure its done after january though!)), txt (if they leave this sad angry boy thing behind), smnbg?, boys planet group (although based on the handling of kepler i dont trust them). next wish kind of dovetails with this one:

i think i want more house music. this isn't a prediction like pop punk but i just think it's the right time for it. i don't think that i'll be able to predict the popular sound moving forward but i think there's a lot of space for bgs to step into the late shinee/vixx zone (thinking about view and eau de vixx). very dancey, bass heavy, and mature. more vocals, less rapping. but this is just my personal taste rather than an educated guess

more selfishly, i'd like an actual, good, survival show. no xenophobia, no dozens, no forced drama, no voting manipulation.

more girl groups releasing full albums. i think it's straight up shameful that starship has given ive 3 single albums but they're following the pack unfortunately. why did aespa debut with a fucking single. can we at least pretend to be about the music?

this is going on everyone's end of year lists but truly, no more children debuting. it's not going to happen but what business does a 13 year old have having a job??? it's interesting (and unsurprising) but male idols are debuting at a slightly older average age than female idols it seems. if this "gg era" ends, will it be a reprieve? i don't want it to come to that honestly.

8d creative girl group. i don't think this is happening but i'd love for onlyoneof to have a sister group with the same quality of vision and concept.

more high quality comeback visuals/magazine shoots. looking at the magazine shoots c-pop idols do...i want that for kpop. i also think photobooks have to be wayyy more interesting than they are now in order for me to understand the hype.

more cross group and cross-company collaborations!! i don't like the hyper-insular nature of kpop right now. certain 2nd and 3rd generation interactions (especially the simple ones honestly) just. don't happen now and i find it so odd?

goals for 2023 (as they relate to kpop)

i talk about this a little later but i'd like to write more! i know i have to force myself to do it but it might be good for me to write for myself on a topic that i'm interested in., kind of as an exercise?

i'd like to listen to more jpop. i kind of find it really daunting to get into, but there are a bunch of jpop/japanese artists that i really like and i would like to find more! the same goes for cpop, but a lot of cpop just isn't listed on non-chinese sites.

deconstruct my relationship with kpop. this sounds odd, but i wonder how it's affected my brain sometimes, like watching all of these beautiful skinny people who constantly call themselves fat and ugly while working out 13 hours a day and having an army of personal stylists and plastic surgeons. like that can't be good for the psyche, right? i've attempted before to think about blackness and kpop but not really...thoughtfully? this would be a good time to kind of...manage that, i guess.

the future of this blog?

the short story is that i'm not sure if i want to keep this blog? like i won't delete but i'm kind of just considering how i feel posting here and stuff. i still like tumblr but talking to myself in this way isn't as fun as it used to be lmfao. i think a lot of the people who i used to interact with have gone ia so it's possible that that could have something to do with it. despite this, i'm wary of making twitter my primary social media- it already kind of is, and i don't really think that's the right direction for me, since i think i'm at my best writing long form posts.

another thing i've realized is that i still really like how my blog looks on desktop- maybe i'll try to reduce my tumblr use on mobile and that'll feel better for me? i might like. create a new account on mobile and use this one only on desktop or something.

i do know that i want to try and write more long form content, maybe try my hand at a more journalistic writing style? i think this year i've found myself engaging with lots of aspects of kpop/music as less of a stan and more of a critic? i'm not sure if this is good or bad but this year i'd like to do more writing for myself and this seems like as good a topic as any. i'm not sure if i want that to be on this blog or elsewhere. probably elsewhere. (if at all)

so what does this mean? probably nothing, but i kind of just wanted to record my thoughts.

up next: 4th gen recap (that may or may not happen)

[chaosites]

Our final SEXY award was quite a close one! Vixxx ( @vixxxxxxxx ) only beat out Nastasia by 14.2% in the last few hours of voting! We award this certificate to Vixxxxx, our favourite objectum plushophile fictofreak. Congratulations, Vixx. You are an inspiration.

And good job making it this far, Nastasia! Though... I'm sure you don't care ;)

(⤴️The joke is that her kink is feigned disinterest and ignoring her partners. Yes we are aware we are comedic geniuses here at Chaosites.)

[soft-jihoonie]

Hi! I hope you’re doing well? I’m doing pretty alright myself, and I'm having lots of fun answering your reply to my ask 💓 Don’t worry, I understand! Life is pretty busy for me too (and I don’t always have wi-fi either) so no rush 💕 I just reached out to the admin to make sure that my ask arrived safely, since Tumblr really can’t be trusted hahah

I hope you got to spend your holiday in a good way! 💫

Oh, is that so? Still, I find that amazing - to be able to do it for such a long time and even moving to get to work with it… I’ve never met someone who does circus so I’m very impressed ✨ Do you still do circus related things at times or have you completely left it behind? Oh, and I’d love to hear you sing someday if you’r okay with it! ❣️ What songs do you like to sing?

You’re right, working and being a kpop fan takes way too much time so I can’t really focus on my other interests that well either 😅 When did you start writing fanfics, and what was the first fandom you wrote for? Do you have a favourite out of the ones you’ve written so far?

I like to read, draw, do cross stitch, bake, dance, take walks in the forest by my house, spend time with my pets, friends and family… but I’m a musician first and foremost, I play the violin 🎶 Can I ask about what you do at your jobs? (But it’s totally okay of you don’t want to answer that!)

Wow, that means we became exo-ls around the same time! What a coincidence 💖 And same here honestly hahah

Me too, he’s a lovely person and I simply can’t imagine exo without him 😣 I hope they get to see each other lots despite everything ❤️‍🩹Ahah wellJunmyeon caught my attention immediately, and he just keeps surprising me with how talented, dorky and kind he is 💗 I get what you mean! I was the same when I looked Vixx up, I thought I’d like Hongbin the most but then Leo appeared and I was doomed 😆💘

I see! Well it’s the same for me, I discover new groups every now and then but I’ll always return to exo in the end 🤍 Ooh, I also relate to being introverted! And the way you described him - soft yet grumpy? Sounds like a perfect catch hahah 💝 and he gets to produce so many songs too! That’s amazing ✨ I’ll definitely give going seventeen a watch then! Also I listened to q&a - it’s so upbeat and groovy! I really like it (and Unfair is such a cute song too agh) 🎵 Would you say that these songs represent your musical taste overall? 

I’ll do my best! 💞 Would you like me to use a theme or a prompt, or do you want me to come up with something completely on my own? I’m definitely open to both options!

💫 ~I wish you all the best until my next ask reaches you~ 💫

-🎅

Hey! first of all i wanted to say so so sorry for taking forever to answer this, this has been the craziest month for me, just non stop haha! I haven't done circus in a long time, I did pole dancing classes for a bit last year but stopped after getting too busy, I live super close to my old circus now so i'm considering restarting classes next year! I actually have a youtube with singing vids on, i haven't posted one in years but you can still watch vids on there https://www.youtube.com/c/SongsandSilks and i like to sing a mix of stuff but rn it's mostly songs from musicals!

I think I was like 15 when I first wrote a fanfic and it was for the dan and phil fandom haha! My fave fic i've wrote is a tie between #whipped and I Keep Falling For You!

Ooh a fellow cross stitcher! What pets do you have? Omg so cool, i always wanted to play violin as a kid haha, how long have you been playing? I work at a stationary store on the weekdays and then on the weekend I work for a car insurance company handling people notifying us of accidents

Haha i feel like always happens for me with groups, i'm like yeah that one's my bias and i'm basically never right haha

For definite, i love how soft and grumpy jihoon is, I feel bad I haven't kept track of the new seventeen comeback but i just have enough time for exo right now haha. Ahh i'm so glad you like Q&A and Unfair, sort of, I have a really varied music taste, like one minute i'll be listening to upbeat stuff and then it'll be pop punk, and then r&b haha, I just like music haha

I'm happy for you to use a theme, I know i'll love whatever you do!!

Also to answer your other ask, yes omg i saw yeol's new mv, i was like counting down the days to it coming out and then I was so hyped when chingu line was in the mv, literally had me grinning so much. I listen to the song at least once a day at this point

I hope you're doing well!!
