So I was reading the origin of species and the Alpha told the Omega he would get 10,000 dollars for each ice cube he could fit inside him. The omega only made it up to 6. MY PROBLEM with that is that I could've AT LEAST made it to 10. Like?? The ice cubes weren't even that big fr.

RM for Dazed Korea
Okay well this is a different way to shoot RM but I can only assume that it has something to do with the project he is about to announce. Gone the nature boy of the Museum of Furniture shoot and in with the blue haired alien visiting us from another dimension and still not quite at ease in his human body.
"RM and Bottega Veneta’s one heart one mind. The attitude, the path and the call."

Speaking of SM.
Tak Youngjoon cameback to being a co-CEO this spring (he was co-CEO with Lee Sungsoo aka Chris Lee in 2020-2023). And even Yoo Youngjin is still affiliated with the company (he is registered under his real name as a consulting director). Maybe not voluntary (contract length), maybe he changed his mind afterall... And the news about Kakao selling SM shares was a rumour in the end... Welp, so much hype during media coverage, and then, when the dust settles, things fall into their original places.
These two are still at the wheel. And it's good.
Tumblr media
Ah, yes, wanted to write about LSM, what was the problem. The post of the OP who digged the info is long, I will summarise and simplify, add a bit of my own. (source)
Up untill 2008 LSM was a registered employee of the company he formed, i.e. SM. He oficially resigned and formed another company Like Planning (LP). SM signed a contract with LP for producing artists.
I'm not completely sure, but it seems LP consisted of one person - LSM (mayhaps there were some accountants and additional personnele, noone who mattered anyway). It's just a name. In practice, LSM changed from a natural person to a juridical person. His salary was paid not to him directly as an employee, but to a company (LP). It allowed him to pay lower taxes, as in Korea natural persons pay more than juridical persons.
Secondly. The contract with LP listed a very long list of services. LP was supposed to do everything: casting, training, selecting members of a group, checking the videos of trainees, planning of albums, concepts, styling, planning of MVs, choreography and more. And yes, technically LSM had his nose in all of this, but not alone. He gave directions, staff in SM did the work. And yet, LP (i.e. LSM) was paid as if LP's employees (non-existant), and not SM's employees (real) provided those services.
Thirdly, there was a clause of LP (i.e. LSM) getting money from activities it directly had not participated in, like artist performances/concerts. This is were "LSM stole from its artists" came.
That tax evasion case of early 2024 was about the goverment telling SM it paid too much to LP, asking to prove the expenses, that LP really provided services that costed so much (SM couldn't), and demanding for more tax to be paid to the government (basically, SM said they are eligible for tax reduction because of LP being involved as a 3d party (who will pay taxes instead of them) and paid a smaller amount, the government came, checked, wasn't persuaded, and said "no" to tax reduction, pay the full sum).
To sum it up. LSM came up with a plan of how to stay as the main producer of everything, earn lots of money without being asked if his services really costed so much, and paying less taxes. And because he was the main shareholder of SM, had the last say and could fire anyone, no employee or CEO could go against him directly.
It lasted for some time (2010 - 2019) untill Align came, pointed at this situation and asked the rest of the shareholders if they were OK with not getting their dividents because too much money went into LSM's pocket (they got less income from their shares because SM as whole was less profitable, it paid too much to LP, the net income was lower than it could have been).
The contract with LP was cut because the rest of the shareholders said so, LSM stopped being the main producer. After it, LSM sold majority of his shares to Hybe and stopped being the main owner of the company as well.
Kakao bought SM to appeal to its own shareholders, and, as was promised, so far doesn't realy involve itself in SM's doings. Korean regulators approved the takeover this year, just made one condition
"South Korea’s Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) gave approval to the takeover, on the condition that Kakao’s Melon continue to distribute music from SM Entertainment’s rivals. It also ordered the creation of a monitoring body to ensure that Melon doesn’t engage in anti-competitive practices."
It seems, SM 3.0. was planned together with LSM. It's not a plan to come up with in an instant. His 3 years of forced absence on SK k-pop scene will end soon. Prepare for the new season of this drama...
P.S. Heh, when I look at the net income numbers, I'm reminded that, indeed, SM is a small company actually.

BL Uke Tier list
Alright, here we go with the BL “Uke/Bottoms” tier list ranking, there was a lot of them but again I picked out the ones that I know of and read and uh...didn’t realize that a lot of them were tsundares.lol.
edit: I should say they have tsundare qualities, but not classified as the archetype, because some people seem confused and I didn’t really know what to name this tier, anyways these are just my opinions and if you have a problem with people saying stuff about your favorite character don’t bother reading 
I don’t know about you but a guy tsundares is more tolerable than girl tsundares just my opinion of course, but to me they seem less violent versus the girls who get really violent for no reason in particular and that is annoying. This is just years of phycological damage from anime exposure to that type of girl.
anyways again trigger warning if you hate people ranking and talking sh*t about your favorite character don’t read.
Okay so lets start off with the “bottom tier” first this time
Put me in the hospital:
Cha on -Shadow realm
Jooin- yours to claim
Seonwoo -punch drunk love
Dan- Jinx
Mokhwa - beware of the full moon in march
put me in the hospital is literally that because some of these boys don’t seem to care about their mental and physical wellbeing, not that they are bad characters but they let people do sh*t to them without retaliating and that does not sit well with me, most of these are due to traumatic experiences but they should not be treated like a doormat.
Basically I want these boys to realize what self worth is 
-------------------------------------
Pretty but zero personality:
joo...something I forgot at this point - turn off the camera
Beom - Full volume
Chunwoo- Lucky paradise
Jiho - insatiable man
yeonju - steel under silk
Ian- ...omg blanking on the name... wet sand 
yeah they are pretty but they have that type of dry personality that does not really attract me, this personal preference of course cause there are people that think its cute..i’m not one of them...
--------------------------------------
does not feel one way or another:
Suha - My suha
Nakyum - Painter of the night
kyungjoon - Dear door
Yeonwoon - Omega complex
Youngjin - The origin of species
hmm...not really sure how I feel about them in general, they haven’t left a strong impression on me to really categorize them so I guess I’m neutral.
well suha started off really bold but then literally dies down near the end so that was a disappointment, same with kyungjoon.
--------------------------------------------
Tsundare tier...let’s go.lol.
there’s a alot of them
Jooha- pearl boy
Wonyoung- secondo piatto
Iru...omg that’s wrong isn’t it? - Don’t get me wrong boss
Byeol- between the stars
Nok- The ghosts nocturne
Taeui - Passion
Felix - hold me tight
Ohn - seeing double
Shin - Kings maker
ibeom- what’s with this strange dream?
Victor - Liveta
Seohyun- Runway hit
Yian - Butler
Jungseo - 100% Mr. perfect
lee won-  Roses and Champaign
Yoohan - Payback
I swear I’m entering my aujima era cause literally yesterday I was able to remember their names and today writing this, I was struggling so hard lmao.
What can I say I like the male tsundares...lol. even though they can be annoying at times and would be 10x intolerable irl. I think they deserve their own list because the list will continue to grow somehow, and if you are one of those people who think they are not you are in denial.
-------------------------------------------
and lastly everyone favorite topic to discuss...the must protect at all costs characters...lmao
Must protect at all costs
Neil- Path to you
Sungyul- willow love story
Seoan- the pizza delivery man and the gold palace
Euijoon - Dangerous convenient store 
Yoonshin - no moral
Joon - the third ending 
Inseop - Love history of willful negligence
Dawol- insecret
I love these boys they are so kind and smart and all round characters that suffer a lot because that is what their creators like to do to them. but luckily their partners are compatible with them and it makes their dynamic interesting to explore. They are often treated really bad, emotionally damaged to some degree and don’t deserve any of it so the must protect at all costs category suits them.
------------------------------------
alright that’s my tier list and I would share this on my twitter but I don’t like how people are just a pain in the a** when they don’t agree with anything. actually seeing what other people ranked and their categories made me a little angry cause talk about sh*t takes. yikes...
 anyways, hope you enjoyed and I’ll work on my monthly favorites and get back you when that time comes 
follow me if this is the type of content you like

BPP!!!! Are you excited for new jeans’ comeback? ☺️
***
It’s the only reason I wake up and go back to sleep at night tbh…
But more seriously? Yeah, I’m stoked.
NewJeans has been putting out some of the most thought-provoking and truly creative media pieces I’ve ever seen in k-pop. Like, man, if NewJeans is what happens when the creative mind of Min Heejin isn’t stifled by Lee Sooman, Yoo Youngjin, and the other male suits at SM who have such a tight chokehold on everything coming out of that company, then we all have one more reason to thank providence for our good fortune.
Every. Single. Song. in their discography is a bop and a half. The creative direction and execution in both Ditto and OMG MVs is one for the books. There isn’t a single girl group that is doing what they’re doing right now despite all the clones and concept/aesthetic redirections we’ve seen since NewJeans debuted.
NMIXX has shelved their mixpop sound a la O.O and TANK for now, going by their latest comeback. They moved to a more easy-listening poppy sound.
I lost count of all the SM stans in my GC asking where the hell Kwangya went in Aespa’s last comeback. It seemed they too shifted their aesthetic to a more casual (and less meta forward) expression of their overall concept.
As a few examples.
They can try to borrow or apply a vibe here, a Y2K outfit theme there, and chill-hop sound for half the album there, and still NewJeans seems like the most authentic expression of what they are.
And that alone is incredibly rare for a girl group less than a year old. NewJeans has crafted a definitive sound identity. If someone says a song sounds like NewJeans, everyone knows what they mean, most people like all their songs, and yet none of the songs in their small discography sound the same way.
And so, yes I’m excited. But, because this is k-pop and I’ve seen this movie before, I’m even more curious to see what fantastic reveals and ‘I don’t know if it’s just me…’ takes that will fuel the hate train this time.
Tumblr media
(I mean, k-pop stans are nothing if not predictable and I bet you your left kneecap they’ve found their next favourite boogeyman in the NJ-MHJ-HYBE connection)
*
That nasty business during The Little Mermaid promotions was sad to see. The fact Danielle got hate from Korean k-pop stans for taking the role (after she auditioned for it mind you), and then Western k-pop stans claimed the racist comments from Korean forums towards Halle were from NewJeans stans (never mind it was posted on a page with the same people hating on Danielle)… that was a kind of low I hadn’t seen in a long while.
There’s a special sort of depravity I’ve observed in k-pop stans, and nothing brings it out quicker than a highly anticipated comeback from a well-loved group that everyone was supposed to hate.
So, yeah. Fun times ahead.
TMI, I once went as Miss Sara Bellum to a corporate Halloween party. The outfit was a fan favourite with the guys and gals and I landed three deals for my team that night, but I’m not certain it was worth it. My fro took weeks to recover from the bleach and hair dye. In fact, 3/10. Would not recommend.
Anyway,
Jungkook will be releasing his EP in July/August as well, and I’m praying to the gods for Itzy’s sake that JYP finally know what they’re doing when they comeback around that time too.
Just more happenings in the boring world of k-pop.
