NO LIKE IT REALLY IS SO FRUSTRATING because no matter how explicit in their portrayal of gay love ooo get without coming out and potentially (almost certainly) jeopardizing their careers, people r ALWAYS going to b on their asses calling it gaybait just because it's kpop and NO other group gets shit like this and there have been ENOUGH instances of genuine gaybait in the industry dont you think... the stories told in these songs and mvs resonate with lgbt ppl like genuinely. there've been many ppl whove said that they watched libidO, watched begin, watched any of their mvs dealing with this topic and felt seen and yet we r still here. arguing over semantics abt when it's explicit enough (which is seemingly never). like it almost seems to me you people are afraid of content that actually DOES resonate with and represent the lgbt community in kpop. specifically mlm stuff

"kpop stans are gatekeeping art references now" well no but you can't deny how jyp hasn't had an original thought in his life. it's always riffing off whatever was succesful the previous season

With seulgi solo out, (I really liked it! Tho the mv was meh I wish for the two seulgi scene they had one of them in the snow white outfit and the other in the grimhilde outfit then they cut to the one seulgi in a combined sort of outfit or any outfit really so it could show good and evil in one person but oh well lol) it made me go back to Irene and Seulgi subunit Monster and got me wondering how the heck it worked so so well.
Bc I see many covers of monster from idols as well like two of the izone girls, dreamcatcher girls, and not a monster cover but it gives off similar vibes-- ryujin and yeji break my heart. But they all don't quite hit as hard as the original which makes me wonder what Irene and Seulgi had if that makes sense?? Like their chemistry is very alluring and I feel like the two of them balanced each other out very well. What are your thoughts? If I made sense LMAO
yea i agree they should have at least had the opposing outfits for seulgi for that scene, it would have actually fit the theme lmao.
in terms of monster and why it worked, i think it worked because of all the combined factors (top tier skills, good choreo, it was designed for them in the first place etc etc), but one thing that i think stands out in comparison to people doing covers and itzy break my heart is that the chemistry between seulgi and irene is actively complex. one of the things that makes monster so interesting is that it's really hard to tell who either of them hate more: each other, or you, the viewer. and on top of that they also play a love for each other that surpasses anything they'd give you, so you'd better get out of there real quick if you don't want to end up on the wrong end of a stiletto (knife or shoe). but with break my heart especially, it's a very one note 'cheeky ironic bad girl' performance; you don't really get the sense that they'd actually do anything you to or themselves. it's toothless. with monster there feels like a real threat coming from seulrene that if you even looked at them the wrong way they'd have no hesitation killing you and then each other, just on principle.
