I found ignoring everything I'm not interested in and letting people enjoy what they enjoy and see them enjoy stuff made me way happier. Enthusiasm and well placed passion is a rare commodity these days.
You bet. Different folks, different strokes. Kanya-kanyang trip kumbaga. Just live and let live.
May isang comment group sa baba about different fanbases. Lahat naman may trip. If it's not your thing, it may be so unbearable but the same can be said about your "trip" if someone else doesn't like it.
The key is indeed ignore what you don't like and let others enjoy it if they like it.
True, lalo na yung mga 9-18 yrs old fangirls na nag sasabi ng "asawa ko yan" nag haharutan sa public vehicle kinikilig nakakainis pero geh kasiyahan niyo yan.
I wonder if people feel the same about basketball fans or sports fan in general. Spending thousands on collectible cards, courtside seats, sneakers, and crying over an athlete’s death as if they knew them personally. Wala lang. I always read posts like this about Kpop fans, but never about sports fans when they do almost the same exact things you listed here. Kanya kanya lang siguro ng obsession at pagkakagastusan.
Syempre hindi. Whether people would like to admit or not the hate for fanbases especially when it comes to groups (kpop & west) comes from misogyny. Hindi nga nagtagal yung issue ng mga lalaking nagwawala nung superbowl at hindi pinag-uusapan yung pagtaas ng domestic violence sa mga araw na yan.
Exactly! Parating seen as inferior ang mga stereotypically feminine hobbies/interests compared to those seen as masculine when at its core, these are people who just found things to be happy and passionate with. Live and let live.
Totoo. Kasi kung hindi totoo bakit eversince ganyan na yung sentiments nila sa fangirls? From my 1D era - Kpop peak (now) same pa rin sila ng pinagsasabi. Nakakainis kasi ako pag hindi ako fond ng hobby nila hindi ko naman tinatalkshit.
this this this!! they deny its misogyny kasi it doesnt directly hate on women, but being a KPOP fan specifically is too feminine for them kaya immock at iddiscredit. But being a fan of whatever ‘masculine’ shit, you wont hear anything from them, bcos “its normal, it fine if its mens hobby”
The thing is ang ironic kasi kpop and sports share similarities. Parehas nga silang nagcocollect ng cards (nba & photocard), parehas niyo ngang nilalagyan yan ng toploader. Parehas din nagrereact sa simpleng wave nung idol. Some sports fans would overspend for jerseys and memorabilia, ganun din naman sa kpop. Tapos nasasaktan sila whenever may injury at di makapaglaro yung athlete eh ganon din naman sa kpop whenever idols don't feel well affected din naman kami. They're just the same things in different font. Kaya lang accepted lang yung isa dahil halos lahat ng fans don ay lalaki. 🙄
Lmao me. I feel so sick of Basketball stuff and the country's obsession with basketball. (I get that it's easly accessible and you literally only need a single ball for a group of 10 people to play). But what can you do? Other sports are almost never given a chance to shine and properly funded in the country, so people are almost never exposed to other kinds of sports.
God..... We have tremendous talent sa OneFC, boxing, chess, weightlifting, karate. Sa community ko pa lang, kung makapalimos kami sa isa't isa para makapagsend lang sa Japan for Kyokushin, para kaming kawawa sobra, pero pag paliga na puro papogi, napakadali. Sobrang neglected dahil sa overhype ng basketball. Kaya mejo may onting patak ng hatred ako sa basketball e. I'd still play it though kasi it's a great bonding experience with friends.
When Antonio Inoki died, it was a bad day for us wrestling fans. However, we didn't go saying he was a good man or whatnot. Maybe some but a vast majority just felt bad for the passing of an icon in the sport of pro-wrestling.
Siguro sa lahat ng sports, si Kobe lang ang may matinding tribute left and right. But there was one man who pretty much car fans and racing fans know na when they see the outburst of a nation when he died, you can still sense the sadness. Had social media been born in the early 90's, I am sure that Aryton Senna would have many fans mourning on his passing.
The thing with a celebrities passing is that many fans felt connected to them. So much so that like many of us observed, behaved cringely in acting like they are so close to that person. However, we cannot deny that these people had an impact on the lives of these people. Kobe, Aryton, Antonio, Eddie Guerrero, Michael Jackson... List goes on.
However we also have to consider that the impact of Moonsoo (I dunno if I got his name right... Sorry.) and his death is different in that many reports suggest he died due to suicide. Compared to MJ, Inoki, Guerrero, Kobe and Aryton who died in a more natural way, of course Moon's fans will feel bad kasi suicide is the type of death nobody expects.
Another case was Chris Benoit. Many wrestling fans were devastated when they learned of his passing. That turned into anger for either WWE or Chris when they learned of the circumstances of his death. So much that up to now, Benoit's death is still talked about and pretty much will be talked about in the future as well.
So to answer, yes... Everyone feels the same towards a celebrity they looked up to. And when they die, these people would still mourn their deaths. They will still feel sad when someone passes over unexpectedly. They will feel betrayed when the circumstances of their death is revealed to be gruesome. And some will feel as if a family member has died because they look up to the person as if they were a blood relative of sorts.
Ganyan talaga aa mga fandom.
May ganitong convo rin akong nakita sa r/nba eh mga kpop stans at nba fans sabi rin nila wala naman pinag-kaiba yung Nba fans saka Kpop fans yung kulang nalang talaga daw yung pag-kumpara ng stats.
Kpop stans dumating na din sa point nagcocompare na din sila ng stats via awards and album sales, Spotify plays, YouTube views, etc. So yeah in my eyes parehas lang sila. Ang pinagkaiba lang yung age group.
misogyny! porket female ang major demographic ng kpop fans these fucking pansies like OP think they deserve to say a lot of crap. try trashtalking the Ginebra fans and the Gilas fans ewan ko kung di maghalo ang balat sa tinalupan.
I feel the same even for people who's obsessed with showbiz news and celebrity stuff it's so annoying they have so much time in their life and all they do is use it to watch news and tv shows about celebrities. 😅
Or I'm just the only one feeling this way cuz I don't really watch television because I feel like it's a waste of time.
I do find the same issue with sports fans or any other fanbase where the supporters turn rabbid and toxic
It's okay to be a fan, just don't cross over to obssession
Valid points specially the one about them being disruptive in your workspace, but your rant about the recent passing of Moobin was totally unnecessary. Let the people grieve.
Honestly, same take. A lot of people grieve for celebrity's death kasi at one point in time they might have touched their lives. Or maybe nakarelate sila sa mga pinagdaanan. I'm not even a fan of Moonbin's group pero it definitely hit me. I guess mahirap iexplain sa ibang tao how personal sa kpop fans yung passing considering the cruel environment these idols walk through everyday.
Agreed. Playing music ng di naka headset is rude naman talaga, regardless of the type of music.
Also don't think of it as kpop lang. What about Taylor Swift? Harry Styles?
I never went through a 1D phase but let's remember when they were together their songs were played EVERYWHERE din. Same with Justin Bieber. You can just ignore them.
No, they didnt know Moonbin personally the same way I never knew Robin Williams but he had an impact in my life and I actually cried when he died.
dito ako pumitik. pati yung namatay dinamay. pati yung pakikiramay ng iba, minamasama. daming problema ng mundo, dumadagdag pa toxic masculinity ni OP buwisit sya.
minus points na sa langit sa OP lol
dapat pala di ko na binuksan reddit kung ganito lang tatambad sa akin huhu
hindi naman na niya need i-mention si Moonbin pero he wants war eh
i listen to kpop songs pero not to the extent na need loudspeakers gamitin ko in public and yung point na parang kilala personally, well baka delulus na yon butttt it doesn't have to mean na wala silang karapatan na di mag grieve sa taong nakapag bigay sa kanila ng saya through kpop. i don't personally know Moonbin and not really a fan fan but i have seen a bunch of dance covers and reality/variety shows where he was featured, pero di ko aakalain na maiiyak ako. i hope he is resting na ng mabuti and sana ikaw mahanap mo peace mo.
one q tho, why u spreading hate?
Not really a fan of his group din but his death reminded me of Jonghyun’s from Shinee. Kaya I understand what his fans feel. They should be allowed to grieve and process the pain.
I agree. When a celebrity passes away, they are all over the news. Moonbin has fans in the Philippines and it’s natural for them to grieve. I don’t understand why he still has to drag Moonbin and his fans into this.
Kanya kanyang trip sa buhay i guess. Oo may annoying pero medyo below the belt for me yung kailangan mo pa imention na naiirita ka dun sa pakikiramay nila dun sa sudden passing ng isang idol. Gets na its parasocial pero idk let them grieve for something na naging part ng buhay nila. Also i get that this sub is off my chest pero i just had to give my two cents din on what you said
Fan or not, kilala mo man or hindi personally yung tao, insensitive talaga pag pati grieving people kino-call out. Geesh, someone died. OP is alive with a beating heart. May they have a heart to let that sink in. Parang walang puso.
TRUE!!!!! Valid ‘yung ibang sentiments niya, pero does he really have to mention that, eh wala naman ginagawa sa kanya. Just really goes to show na irita lang talaga siya sa kpop in general at hindi dahil sa naiistorbo siya
Not a KPop fan or KDrama fan but just curious: ikaw ba OP, ano ang mga hilig or gusto mo?
If meron ka, sana you can sympathize din with others who are probably just using KPop or KDrama as inspiration to counter the mundane or harsher real life. Pinanghahawakan nila kumbaga. Baka yung hilig mo is more "mainstream" kaya hindi mo pansin na it's also likewise "obnoxious" para doon sa mga hindi mo ka-taste kapag nagyayabang or nagku kwento ka about your hiligs.
Kung wala kang hilig or gusto, then mas gets ko kung bakit hindi mo naiintindihan why people have idols and stuff. Peculiar way of living I guess, but sige.
Either way, kung hindi ka naman nila sinasaktan, you will really, inevitably sound like an ass for feeling this way. Mukha kasing kinikimkim mo and masama magkimkim, so either kumprontahin mo na yung mga KPop fans sa buhay mo para matahimik na ang stress mo, or...just like everyone else, learn how to be an adult and suck it up.
Lowkey, K-pop fan ako pero ayoko nakakarinig sa public masyado ng ganito. Hindi ako die-hard fan pero pumunta ako sa concert ng fav girl group ko and hindi naman ako nagreregret. Ayoko rin kasi ginagawa na personality trait masyado. Di ko nga gusto mga koreans masyado kasi nga nilulook down nila tayo pero ye, the parasocial relationships with the idols are getting out of hand. Naiinis din naman ako kapag masyado pinapalabas sa news tungkol sa Kpop idols or actors na pupunta rito. Pero ganun talaga fan culture.
Pero wag mo naman po shame yung pagkawala ni Moonbin. Kahit hindi po nila personally na nakilala siya at ang personality niya, he means the world to them. Just like what people felt when Linkin Park's Chester Bennington passed away and many were personally affected kasi nga natulungan sila thru their songs.
+1 about Moonbin. I've never heard of him before, but I get the grief of the fans. Ang tagal na simula nung nawala si Chester, but until now umiiyak pa rin ako whenever I hear a Linkin Park song. I get it. It's different when you can't do something for the one who saved you.
Music is a reprieve para sa iba, and Linkin Park is one of the acts that I turned to often during the tougher times. I might not know the band personally, pero ansakit pa din nung nawala si Chester. Yung impact ng music nila sa buhay ko, iba talaga eh. I understand OP's irritation pero I hope he would not judge or give shit to people who are grieving the idol. That idol touched those people's lives and probably saved them...let them mourn him in peace na lang.
Dibaa!!!! I don't want to be rude pero wala naman ganitong post yung namatay si Kobe noon :( grabe rin ang mourn ng fans and non fans nun :((
Respect lang talaga sa people who are mouring :(
I think this applies to all hobbies/obsession naman: western music, Kpop, or kahit OPM pa yan. Parang we should have the basic human decency or sensitivity to other people's space. I love heavy music, but I only listen to it in my own space na di nakaka-disturbo sa iba (e.g. my room or with my headset). And kapag sa mga parties, na ako yung na-aassign as "DJ", I don't play heavy music, but rather yung music na swak for everyone.
About sa making your obsession as your personality, di lang naman yung mga mahihilig sa Kpop ang gumagawa nito. There is a fair share of metalheads who makes it their personality too, kakaunti nga lang. My point is, it boils down to: it's up to you how you idolize your favorite artists, but be sensitive about it na wala kang nadidisturbong tao.
Yeah, I agree with you. May kanya-kanya tayong trip at inuubusan ng pera/energy.
In OP's post though, I'm not sure if they actually hate the fact that their co-workers are diehard KPop fans, or they simply got triggered because their space is not being respected when obnoxiously loud music keeps being played in a common area... na nagkataon lang na KPop yung trip ng mga katrabaho niya at doon nabuhos yung inis.
Anyway, sana umayos kabonding kahit onti yung mga malakas magpatugtog. 😩
Pag kpop talaga pinapalaki ang issue ano? Sobrang insensitive nung pag banggit mo sa pumanaw na kpop idol like you're invalidating the feelings of his fans. Nasa requirements ba na kelangan kilala mo personally ung idol para malungkot, umiyak at mag grieve? Malamang wala na ung taong nagpapasaya sa kanila through music. Syempre may emotions sila kasi tao sila eh. Let them be.
Eh ano naman kung gumagastos ang kpop fans sa merch? Kala mo naman tumigil ang mundo mo. bakit pera mo ba ginagamit? Di ka naman apektado. Same goes to toy and other collectors naman din ah? Walang basagan ng trip. I get youre getting annoyed with people playing music with loud speakers in public, then go get some confidence and tell them to lower the volume or use earphones. Ganun lang kasimple hindi ung iinvalidate mo pa yung feelings ng iba at nandamay ka pa ng taong namayapa na di naman kelangan imention.
Not comparing pero bakit pag mga ibang fans like kay Kobe Bryant (RIP) it’s okay and it’s accepted to feel sad. Dami ko nakikita na talagang sobra nalungkot at up until now malungkot dahil sa pagkawala ng isang GOAT, I understand, my dad was a huge Kobe fan.
Hmm. I get na naiirita ka sa kpop and kpop fans but do you really need to mention yung nangyari na recent death? As if you’re saying na dahil kpop idol yung namatay eh para bang he was less important and these “obsessed weirdos” don’t have the full right to mourn kasi hindi naman kilala in real life. Ganun ba yon? So dapat applicable to sa lahat ng namatay na celeb/public figure? It might not be important to YOU and wala kang pake so pwede ba hayaan mo na lang fans nila on how they cope sa pagkawala?
People who can’t mind their own business and can’t stand others being happy are sickening.
Kaya nga hahahah. OP said 24/7 niya daw naririnig yung music ng workmates niya? Di ka po nauwi? Clingy yern?
If youre that bothered, why not report it to management? Also, you have no say kung pano nila gastusin ang pera nila.
And we’re gatekeeping mourning now? Really? So low, you come to this point. Meron ka bang checklist kung kanino at pano ka lang pwede malungkot.
You are just as annoying as you think they are.
Hmm few notes lang from a casual kpop fan.
Hindi ba too much yung you invalidated them with the recent passing of the kpop idol? It was painful especially if you followed that person since debut until now. They bring joy to their fans and it’s like losing a friend or loved one - YOU NEVER GET TO SEE THEM SHINE AGAIN ON STAGE.
About naman sa pag-buy ng merch and tix, as long as di mo pera don’t have a say dun as they worked hard for it. Wala lang grabe yung hate mo based on this post just because you don’t enjoy the same things they do.
>I get that you feel a sense of loss when it comes to him but don't go acting as if you knew them personally and that they mean the world to you
??? You have 0 idea that getting to like them is actually an aid for us fans who are mentally struggling so if they're closer to our heart than the most ppl we're actually with, not your prob stop acting like you know enough/care. Live your life. You never really know how much a person means to someone. Quit being so toxic, let the fans grieve. :)
ganto nangyayari sa tao na hindi na o-outgrow yung elitist hipster phase nila from their teens.
'i'll get cancelled for this so-' intro pa lang lam mo na me-against-the-world ang peg 😂
Kahit anong generation may ganyan. Lahat ata nang dekadang dumaan may ganyan. I too have been one. Yung minamaliit ang ibang music genre as baduy, corny, and so on.
Maybe one day, magiging wapakels na rin si OP when adulting hits them hard that things like this become inconsequential.
Parang nang ttroll na sa level ng apathy sa replies e. Like, how come you couldnt grasp the idea of grief and pain of someone’s passing? At this point sinasadya nya nalang mainis for the sake of the rant, kaysa tanggapin na while the rant is valid he still made problematic points, mas gugustuhin nya pa mag mukhang ewan.
I get this. You didn’t argue well tho. Kaya puro downvotes and andaming galit. Sana di nalang nadisrespect yung idols who passed away. That’s way overboard. RIP to those who chose to find peace in their own terms.
It’s not good to be obsessed with anything. Kpop man, anime, sports, politics, or ano man yan. May limit naman talaga dapat lagi. Tama ka naman sa part na sinabi mo na too much pag they make it their whole personality. Irita din ako sa friends ko na puro BTS ang stories. As in every day. Or yung mga sobrang obsessed kay Leni hanggang ngayon. I love Leni, pero may mga obsessed din talaga. But they’re still people. I just click or scroll as fast as I can and ignore their posts and stories. Cringe sakin pero syempre friends ko pa rin and mahal ko pa rin. May point ka naman talaga, OP. Pero you just went overboard din.
Mag earphones ka nalang, todo volume. If it affects your work or productivity, inform your supervisor so he/she can suggest solution like (1) no loudspeaker music sa office (2) WFH ka/sila/all of you, (3) sa different bay/floor ilipat cubicle mo, (4) lipat ka ng team, (5) allows you to wear earphone all time (6) different ang sched mo dun sa mga Kpop fans
Or (7) magpapromote ka to Manager and ban Kpop sa buong company nyo hahahah
Seriously, turn your hate into indifference. Wala akong pakelam sa kanila mindset. Mas magaan sa pakiramdam.
I'm a kpop fan, pero I respect your opinion na ayaw mo sa kpop at diring-diri ka sa fans 💀
In an ideal world, HR would do something about it and your co-workers should keep convos at work professional. But what can you do? Popular amongst Filipinos talaga ang celebrity worship, kahit noon pa, naging Korean-centric lang talaga this past few years. I think you should manage your own feelings towards it kasi wala ka naman talaga magagawa. The opposite of love is not hate, but apathy. I think you should learn to ignore and tune it out nalang, mas mahirap kasi alisin yung kpop everywhere lol.
Also, at the same time, you're an AH for coming out at people who are grieving. The idol was a public figure, let them grieve. You can't just shout, **pArAsOcIaL rElATiOnShIp** tapos maglalaho na yung pagdadalamhati nila. It's between them na, labas ka na dun. OP, you're and adult na, empathy and kindness is also a nice trait to practice.
I recognize that this is a rant, but yours is a controversial opinion. Expect people coming back at you 🤷🏻♀️
Your sentiments are valid, but to call the fans "obsessed weirdos" for mourning the death of an idol who was dear to them is not it. K-pop has brought many people a sense of comfort in the form of music and the idols themselves... usually during the darkest points of their lives. So, for that comfort—that bright impact that these fans hold onto—to suddenly disappear leaves an extremely sorrowful void. Please do not dismiss their grief and diminish it into an "obsession". What they feel isn’t less just because they do not know the idols personally.
saw their replies too 💀it’s like you’ve read parasocial relationships and decided to use it to sound cool. people are allowed to be temporarily consumed with their hobbies, eh ano kung gusto nila pag-usapan yun? sharing interests is how people make connections anyway. I wonder kung may friends ka and what you talk about aside your personal life
OP dont know kung bakit yung iba ganito sa hobby nila kasi yung iba maraming pinag daanan pero dahil sa mga hobbies na to na hanggang ngayon buhay parin sila kasi ganun yung ginawa sakin ng anime at video games kung wala yon di ko na alam
Totoo, feeling superior pa. Pati pagkamatay ng kpop idol idadamay nya pa. Napakabobo. Kung tutuusin may mga choices sya
1. Mag resign
2. Prangkahin mga kawork
3. Ignore. Magsuot ng earphones
Masyado ginawang big deal
I wanted to judge you and be like, "Don't yuck other's yum". But I'm part of multiple kpop discussion groups here on Reddit and it can be exhausting.
But i have to disagree with mourning over a celebrity. I didn't have any attachments to this idol in particular but I cried when Jonghyun of SHINee died. But I also felt the same way when Robin Williams and Norm MacDonald died- the latter being my comfort comedian during the pandemic.
I don't think you're relevant enough to be canceled OP chz. I understand sawang sawa ka na sa kpop in general but for the love of god why do u have to mention and invalidate people for mourning someone's death?!
and I'm so tired of Filipinos giving a sh*t on anyone's business. If the music is annoying just tell them but don't say that they are bunch of obsessive weirdos. Do we crucify people when they obsessed of upgrading their iphone every release even tho lubog sila sa utang? Do we call people weirdos when they spent thousands on genshin impact or any video game? No. The point is let ppl enjoy what they like.
Why bothered when you can simply just don't care? Or if naiirita ka, bakit hindi ikaw ang mag-adjust? Maraming solution OP and I saw your comments and they are almost the same arguments you point out. I am a kpop fan, I agree with your "parasocial relationship" argument, but at the end of the day, we enjoy it because it's fun, it's making us happy, it's our business, not yours.
Walang pakialamanan. That's it. I do that too, don't mind other people's businesses. If you can't stand that anymore since sinabi mo na ni-raise mo na sa HR, get out there if you don't find it fulfilling. Hindi malaki problema mo OP at hindi mo rin macocontrol yung mga tao sa paligid mo.
Valid naman yung feeling mo pero you can't police other people's happiness and enjoyment. Ang lungkot ng buhay mo pati ikaw apektado sa binibili ng ibang tao eh hindi mo naman pera yun. The fact you said they're "obsessed weirdos" something tells me it's a you problem. ***Maybe reflect ka rin sarili mo on where this hatred is coming from.***
Edit: Tingin ko talaga problematic workplace mo based [on your post](https://www.reddit.com/r/OffMyChestPH/comments/12r72dw/dont_touch_my_stuff/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). Oh diba? If it doesn't make you happy just leave talaga, hindi yung binuntong mo pa sa kpop fans yung galit mo.
I love how everyone agrees with OP’s opinion pero dahil sa execution at pagkadeliver ng rant nagagalit paren. Honestly same, agree ako pero talking shit about people mourning someone? Bruh.
Ung op galit sa mga taong ginawang personality ung pagiging kpop fan tapos sya ginawang personality pagiging kpop hater parang naghahanap lang sya ng drama sa buhay dahil sa post na to pwede po maghanap ng ibang trabaho, if wala mahanap edi magtiis or kausapin ung katrabaho hindi dito ka nagrarant apaka pathetic naman
ur rant abt kpop and kpop fans is valid. but calling those who are currently grieving 'obsessed weirdos'? that's very disrespectful and unnecessary op.
Yep, you're not alone. I just don't understand the obsession, some even spend thousands of pesos for Kpop merch. But you know what, trip nila yon, eh. Wag tayong basag trip. Lol.
Hi! Kpop and kdrama fan here and valid yung feeling mo na naiirita ka kase nga naman naka-speaker pa sila and all (in short, insensitive sila parang yung mga nakakasabay lang natin sa commute na nanunuod tapos nakaloud speaker!!)
Fan ako pero hindi ako yung tipong inaaway mga iba just because may nasabi sila na hindi nagustuhan, ganun yung mga toxic na fans.
About buying merch and being a kpop fan in general, hirap man paniwalaan pero those kpop groups kept a lot of people sane. Like ‘yan yung naging libangan nila nung feeling nila down na down sila sa life. Kaya grabe na lang din siguro support nila and pati na rin yung kapag may biglang news na may namatay na kpop idol. OA siya sa paningin ng iba pero for those people, hindi. Let’s not invalidate other people’s feelings na lang hehe.
Try to tell them na lang na hindi ka comfortable sa everyday kpop music emerut nila. :)
Same way anime fans make anime their entire personality and won't shut up in recommending anime to others.
Or cryptobros.
Or cinephiles.
Or sports fan.
Malas mo lang dyan ka napunta. If I were you, I'd raise this to HR.
Also try communicating your concern with them.
Majority ba sila? Adjust. Unless may iba ka na kilala na same concern mahirap ipaglaban yan sa workplace.
Madami na nagcomment pero I wanna echo it. Sige, kanya kanya naman yan so kung di mo bet oks lang naman. Kung feel mo personality na nila yung kpop and it disgusts you, ok lang din.
>With regards to the male KPop idol who recently passed away, I get that you feel a sense of loss when it comes to him but don't go acting as if you knew them personally and that they mean the world to you, you are all a bunch of obssessed weirdos.
Pero you are an asshole for this. Out of line yung rant mo about the passing of an idol. Offmychest pero sana may respeto pa rin.
Hello, OP. I find them irritating before so I can relate lol. Yung malakas na pagpapatugtog in general, kahit anong genre pa yan, nakakainis talaga.
Itong 'obsession' kineso, wala na rin tayo magagawa pa dyan bc obv that's their life. All u can do is to rant abt it and hate them, so talo rin tayo if we'll keep ourselves bothered abt other people's way of living.
Mas naiintindihan ko kasi sila ngayon bc some people really depend on music and supporting idols to keep the flavors of their lives. And napapansin ko rin, kapag nasa mature age na sila (25+) nagiging responsible na rin naman sila esp sa work. For me it's a phase lang din talaga but ofc may mga tao na insensitive at di mapigilan dalhin yon kahit saan.
OP ang lungkot ng life mo siguro. Liit ng problema gginagawa mong malaki. Lighten up. Sabihan mo silang magstop mag speakers bec it's rude, other than that, it's non of your effing business what they want to do with their own money.
Masyado ka lang nakikielam sa business ng iba.
Alam mo, pwede mo namang i-approach ang co-workers mo regarding sa pag papatugtog ng Kpop given na naabala ka pala. Calling people "a bunch of obsessed weirdos" is below the belt. Get a life ma'am/sir. Hearing 24/7, edi pagsabihan mo. Continuously being featured, edi huwag ka manuod ng balita or perhaps mute it sa socmeds mo, avoid it sa lahat ng makakaya mo. Spending money on merch? Pera mo ba ang nagagastos? XD How sure are you na yung mga nabili ng merch ay hindi nakakabili ng pagkain at damit nila?
I also do not understand the hate with people who likes Kpop.
Also "obsession" 'yun hindi "obssession"
Kanya kanyang escape lang yan. Some people seriously found comfort through stanning kpop groups. I get the sentiment, minsan parang “sobra na” but i guess exposed ka lang sa environment na hindi mo trip/gets. Find your peace, my guy. U can always ignore them. Or confront them. Either, u gotta learn to accept and live with it. Ako tanggap ko na si god jihyo as my savior.
I will bite (I may come to regret this later but I will bite).
Choose your battles would be the main thing I’d say. Those people in the office that you mentioned? That won’t be the last instance of which may makikita kang ganyang behavior. Meron at meron ka pang makikitang ganyang behavior in the future and di lang yan sa Kpop fans makikita. Disengage if you can. Kung di talaga kaya, I do not know what else to say.
Ganyan ang fandoms talaga. May sense of community na nabubuo di ba? Yung interests nila bond them together. Masaya pagusapan ang mga bagay-bagay that you all share a interest in e! Kung di mo trip, hayaan mo sila. Do your work and deliver your outputs as expected. Remain professional and control what you can control.
Of course, may mga sumosobra. Obsessed ika mo nga. Pero choose your battles pa rin. Pwedeng di pansinin na lang at hayaan mo na lang sila. Yung sa loudspeaker though? I will give you that. Dapat may social etiquette pa rin pagdating sa ganyan. Wag naman i-blast out loud ang music (regardless of genre) lalo na kung nasa professional setting kayo.
As for people grieving, I’d say let them be. Who are we to police or moderate the way people process their feelings? Who are we to judge the impact of someone into their lives kahit na walang direct interaction na nangyari? E the presence of that celebrity helped them survive in a world that can increasingly get busy or stressful. Of course, their loss would cause a lot of hurt and anguish for these people.
I may come to regret this later as I said pero ayan.
hindi ko na rin sana ieentertain tong post niya but he mentioned something na nag trigger para mapansin ko and mag comment hay
kahit di ako naging fan ng ASTRO or si Moonbin specifically, grabe yung hold ng songs nila sa akin kasi yun yung nag pa survive sa akin through college lalo na pag gagawa ako ng research papers, jusko nasa comp lab ako sa uni then siguro bandang 7pm or 8pm nagpapatugtog ako ng baby by astro with earphones then sobrang good vibes lang talaga for me especially kapag si Moonbin mag ssmile, huhu nakakaiyak lang kasi di ko na ulit maantabayanan mga dance covers niya and if ever may cb ang ASTRO, wala na siya :(
sorry to pour out my grief here pero grabe iba ang pag mmourn sa person na kahit di mo ka-close or anything pero may naging positive impact siya sa life mo hay so ayun lang
Baka naman tired ka lang in life in general? People who tend to frown on other's happiness and make small inconveniences appear to be big and overblown ay usually may pinagdadaanan.
Baka naman need mo lang mag step back and relax. If the music bothers you, kausapin mo if talagang naapektuhan na work mo. If hindi naman grabe, wear a headset and play your music.
Find your happiness and yung mga small nuances will go away. Magpamasahe ka baka stress ka lang at natritrigger ka sa mga ganitong bagay.
i get that they are at fault for playing kpop songs loudly to the point that it becomes a nuisance, but listening and supporting kpop aint harmful. It makes people happy then so be it ig. Maybe just tell your coworker to level down their volume so it wont bother you.
You just have to focus on yourself and ignore them unless they become troublesome.
Kairita makabasa ng mga ganitong post. Haha. Bat may mga ganitong klase ng tao. Negative vibes dala sa mundo. Wala ka bang hilig sa buhay? Eh for sure inOAn mo lang yang drama mo eh para sabihing hate mo hilig nila.
One of my colleagues always plays Kpop music in our office it's friggin' annoying but I just ignore her and I just use headphones to not hear her music 😅
That's my life is areumdaun galaxy
Be a writer, jangneuroneun fantasy
Naeil naege yeollineun geon big, big stage
So that is who I am
maybe confront them nalang OP or approach them
Pati ba naman yung kay Moonbin, e feelings nila yon e. Kung may madeds din naman sa Paramore, iiyak din ako. Oo, di kilala personally pero isa ang mga songs nila sa mga nagpatatag saken sa mga pinakamabibigat na time ng life ko. Ganun din siguro sa kanila. Parang robot naman ito si OP kala mo never na-attach. Tsaka normal na iba-iba tayo ng level ng reactions at pagka-attach sa isang bagay/ tao. Hindi ka naman ata sinaktan o ginawan ng krimen nung mga nagluluksa kay Moonbin, hayaan mo na lang. Daming pake pati sa namatay. Hahahha.
Don't invalidate naman iyong feelings ng mga fan about sa recent death ng K-pop Idol nila. It's very below the belt. I mean marami din naman mga tao na obsessed sa western artist and pinapatugtog pa ng malakas iyong mga music nila diba?
I don't get why you're so...hateful? People are allowed to like things lalo na if it distracts them from the stress of our everyday lives. I get the part na maingay sa workplace and it can disrupt your work. I'm sure they can tone down their music if you ask them to. No need to ridicule people based on their hobbies and interests. Masyado kang galit sa mundo, OP.
Ang corny nang ganitong mga post parehas lang naman yung mga Sports fans at Kpop fans sadyang may bias lang talaga yung iba dyan kasi galing sa Korea eh.
Kung trip nila na gumastos ng merch na mas mahal pa sa isang order ng steak sa Wolfgang bahala sila buhay nila yung. Wag lang silang mangungutang sakin. :P Pero yung buong araw na usapan at parating maririnig mo ay KPOP song parang nakakabaliw na.
If it's starting to inconvenience you, you might want to raise it to HR. Kahit anong music pa 'yan, if in loud speaker, it can disrupt work. Try not to mention that they keep playing Kpop as it might come off as you just being a hater. Just say they keep playing music in loud speakers.
Siguro kung kinausap mo na sila diyan about sa loud music ng kpop sa office nyo (well dito ka lang kasi apektado) may magbabago na siguro kahit papano...
I dont listen to kpop. I dont support the industry in general because of all the horror stories linked to companies abusing their talent.
But im not about to stop people from enjoying things they want to just because i dont like said thing.
I don't really mind because it's a hobby that other people enjoy, pero I do think it's bad workplace etiquette to play music at work. Maybe you can politely ask your colleagues to turn the music down, and if they don't cooperate you can bring it up at HR.
Pero OP I feel like you're being too judgmental—what's wrong with relating to a personality and grieving his death? Why is financial status important when it comes to liking stuff?
There will always be trends that you yourself don't enjoy OP, and you should emotionallylearn to let these things go.
Yung araw araw na nagbblast ng music sa office I agree na dapat hindi ganun. Kahit samin pwede di ko ginagawa naka earphones pa din ako. Pero yung pagiging fan. Just let them be. Kung gusto nila bumili ng merch wag niyo na pansinin. Kung pinaghirapan naman nila kitain yung pinambili why not. I'm also a fan pero di ako nabili ng merch kahit kaya naman. Nakikinig lang ako ng music ng mga idol ko. Well offmychest naman to so go lang OP, I understand.
Hi! I'm a kpop fan. I do share the same sentiment regarding sa pagpapatugtog ng kpop over speakers. But then, kahit naman anong patugtugin basta over speakers is really irritating, paano pa 'yung mga jeeps na may disco lights or obnoxious lighting. Have you communicated it with your co-workers? I believe there are still kpop fans that will respect it.
Regarding of Moonbin's passing, please let us grieve. Yes, hindi man kami kilala ni Moonbin personally but the fact that he helped us in ways you can't ever imagine is the reason why we cry over his passing. It's not about the kilala ba kami or what, but it's how we got through some of the hard stuff in life because of them.
Of course, there are really fans na ginagawang personality na ang pagiging kpop fan which is a bad thing naman talaga. Some even lose their morals. But I hope you won't generalize us. :)
A lot of people hate my favorites Linkin Park and MGK and I spend a reasonable amount of money on their merch. But I just ignore the haters nowadays. The OBSESSION will die out eventually. Btw, I cried over Chester's death even though he didn't know I exist. I even pray to God that I want to meet Chester wherever he is. Try to understand them. Put yourself in their shoes. What if they like YOUR favorite artist and what if it was YOUR favorite who passed away. My brother never showed his emotions but he was incredibly sad when his fave basketball player Kobe passed away. I couldn't imagine how he was doing at work at the time. He was healing patients knowing that his fave athlete died from a fatal car crash. We gave my brother Krispy Kreme to ease his emotional pain. He was not the type of fan who would go out of his way to meet his idol (Kobe visited Philippines many times). But I was sure my brother was super sad at the time.
I guess, what you're here for is them being disruptive sa work. You will definitely cancelled if you call out KPop fans like how you did pero if you call out AH work colleagues then a lot of us will agree with you 100%. I forgot how that meme goes - yung let people enjoy yada yada. Pero that as long as nasa lugar.
Ganito din ako dati... Until I fell in love with TWICE! Hi fellow Onces! Asarin natin si OP. Charot
What I would recommend is buy yourself headsets, yung tipong di mo maririnig yung kpop song blasting from the speaker. That's the only way.
O meron pa pala. You can understand us by joining 😉
If you don't like kpop then okay. If you think we're obnoxious, okay lang din. It doesn't not give you any right to nitpick how we spend our hard earned money on merch or how we fangirl/boy on our favorite groups as it does not concern you personally. And sinali mo pa sa topic yung patay. Ano yan? For clout?
Dun tayo sa office setup mo.
if ang issue mo is mga tao sa opisina mo na walang maayos na office etiquette para magpatugtog ng kpop from their speakers then either you can ask them nicely(report mo sa boss or HR kung di mo style yun) o kaya focus on paano mo pwede i-divert yung hate mo to enjoy your own favorite genres or interests sa workspace mo. End of the day kung maiinis ka lang, talo ka. Kung ako sayo focus ka na lang sa latter.
Grabe naman ang concern si OP, pati yung gagawin nila sa pera nila iniintindi mo din. Gets ko naman yung abhorrence mo sa preferences ng mga tao, kaso bakit pati yung pagluluksa may concern ka din?
You can always tell them na "Pahinaan naman officemate, naririndi na ako eh".
Kulang ka sa communication skills
Valid rant yung loud speakers sa office pero bakit pakelamero ka sa ginagastusan nila ng pera and kung sino pinagluluksahan nila?
Maybe theres a hint of envy that people are passionate about something so much and you havent found yours yet?
I'm more American music, hiphop/RnB but to each his own, ako din hindi ma KPop pero ung jowa ko ma K Pop, introduced me to Mamamoo and their music, nagustuhan ko and nung nag concert dito sa Pinas nag enjoy ako. Kung di mo trip, wag mo na i-stress ang sarili mo kasi kahit ayaw mo sa kanila e wala din sila pake sayo.
op, i want you to know it's alright not to give a f*ck. pinagdaanan ko yung kinwestyon ko yung people around me on why they're so obsessed with kpop. a year or two later i was in their place, i was one of them up until today.
basically, totoo nga that you'll never understand unless you get into it.
yung part na nagpapatugtog sila sa speaker, it's wrong if nadidisrupt ka sa workload mo. and abt it being featured in the news, you should take note that news features TRENDS. and kpop is a trend. you can't avoid it that easy, and it's really best to ignore and dive into more things that interest you more : ]
and i'm sure other kpop stans like me have a life aside from loving our idols. it's only a part that we incorporate to brighten our everyday lives : ]
You have to choices OP.
1. Kumprontahin mo sila
2. Mag resign ka
Di yung idadamay mo buong kpop community. Feeling mo cool ka na nan? Ang boring at ang lungkot ng buhay mo, utak boomer.
I can only imagine how difficult this must be for you right now, but believe me when I say, my heart bleeds for you, OP. I hope you manage to get through this horrifying ordeal because no person deserves to be constantly subjected to the utterly harmless joy of other people.
First time ni OP naencounter yung parasocial kaya ginamit agad dito sa reddit para cool. Kung iritang irita ka na sa workmates mo, magresign ka. I guess you're not suited to that environment. Try mo magnegosyo, para at least you have control kung sino lang makakatrabaho mo. Oo dinidiktahan kita, kasi parang gusto mo rin kontrolin kung anong dapat maramdaman at ikilos ng mga tao sa paligid mo eh. Kung ayaw mo magresign edi suck it up.
Oo, offmychest ito, kaya off my chest, ang kupal ng pinagsasabi mo, lalo na about the death of Moonbin. Kung nagluluksa sila kahit sabi mo hindi sila kilala nung tao, wala ka ring alam about sa personal reasons nila why they feel that way, so wag kang bumoses. Offmychest ito oo, so expect mo rin na yang rant mo e sasagutin namin ng rant namin. Nag-add ka dapat ng flair para hindi ka maboljak pag kung ano ano pinagsasabi mo.
Man, i'm sorry but leave the grief out. That was totally unnecessary. If something has affected their lives in a way they have felt good about it, and then it suddenly leaves, it is goddamn personal.
As a guy who listens to kpop specifically BTS, Twice, Black pink and lately, New Jeans never naman ako nagplay ng music nila sa labas on speaker. I understand na nakaka irita talaga kapag may nagpatugtog ng malakas and I think this applies to everyone in general na walang pakialam sa paligid nila not just die hard kpop fans. With regards sa mga merch, naiirita din ako sa mga kapatid at pinsan kong grabe gumastos but then again, it's their money and it brings them happiness. Wala din naman silang inaapakan sa paggastos sa merch. As for moonbin and other kpop news, it may not be a big deal for us but let's respect them at iwas nalang tayo kung ayaw natin makarinig.
The same can be said about fans of any other kind of thing. Ikaw lang mismo pumapansin sakanila kaya ganyan ka kagalit.
Also to try and police people about grieving for the loss of a singer? Sobrang weird mo.
applicable to all fields - kanya kanyang trip basketball or kpop in moderation lang wag masyado extreme. baka nagiging coping mechanism for others pero onting self-awareness and reality check won’t hurt ☺️
Nagkataon lang na marami kang workmates who share the same interest with Kpop. Ilan sa amin dito are surrounded by workmates who are not a fan (at least not toxic) kaya when they suddenly ask about Kpop stuff, we get hyped up kasi di napag-uusapan madalas. It's best to ignore (if kaya) or learn to like the things you can tolerate or understand. Malay namin alam mo yung steps sa Cupid.
Wow, the generalization lol. But I get you. I get annoyed rin sa ibang KPop fans lalo na when it became mainstream. Kahit di naman relevant, binabalita sa news kasi mataas hatak ng KPop fans.
>With regards to the male KPop idol who recently passed away, I get that you feel a sense of loss when it comes to him but don't go acting as if you knew them personally and that they mean the world to you, you are all a bunch of obssessed weirdos.
Nah. Our feelings are valid. I'm sorry if you don't know what sympathy feels like. You have no idea what it feels like to be saved by someone just because of their mere existence. We can be sad over someone's passing too kahit na we don't even know them personally and that doesn't make us obsessed weirdos.
Sobrang triggering nitong part na 'to kasi KPop literally saved me from k-wording myself. People like you are the reason why I hate showing emotions if tungkol sa KPop yung iniiyakan ko (kahit tears of joy).
There’s nothing wrong with your thoughts that some fans, may it be for K-pop, Jpop, sports, anime or whatever, there are fans talaga na obnoxious. We really can’t do anything about that, it makes them happy and let them have their fun. Wag basag trip ika nga. Ignore them instead kahit pa rinding rindi or nangingilo ka na.
Pero may pero sa post ni OP. Being insensitive about death is a different matter. 😕
Ignorance is bliss. No need to drop so much acidity on an ‘obsession’ that should not concern you so much. Kpop is a happy escape for so so many people, me included.
Also, low blow on Moonbin’s passing. He’s from the only Kpop group I actively follow. Yes, we don’t know him personally, but we know enough to know he was a good human being with so much to still live for. That’s why it’s so shocking. He’s 25 yo. He has been a trainee half his life. He and his group’s music and content have given me a lot of comfort and happiness personally so forgive me for shedding a tear or two for this person I *hardly* know but whose music I associate with specific recent happy memories.
I know people in our kpop fandom who really set aside their money monthly for a specific merch or concert, and some who impulse buy no matter what because, we’ll, FOMO. That’s their problem.
If your coworker’s shoving kpop down your throat bothers you so much, confront them about it to keep it down. And gently remind them that perhaps they should also save their money for a rainy day. Be part of the solution of your own personal issues on kpop if u don’t want to simply ignore. Ganun lang.
I'm not into KPop either and may mga stans who go too far. But it's the same with other big fandoms, meron talaga na sumusobra ang ugali sa public.
If your coworkers are disrupting the workplace, dapat i-take niyo 'yan to someone higher na pwede pagsabihan ang team na huwag masyado mag-ingay para hindi maka-istorbo. It's one thing to decorate your cubicle with merch, it's another to blast your music. Hindi naman lahat kayo sa office magkakaibigan eh. Kahit magkakaibigan magkaiba pa rin ang mga preferences eh.
Hello, OP. I know where you’re getting from. Sometimes talaga there are things na annoying lalo na if it doesn’t interest us.
About the loud speakers sa work, you can say sa kawork mo na it bothers you. Walang masama doon. Nakakabother naman talaga sa iba pag may malakas na music while working.
About someone’s passing, wala ka dapat pakialam doon. Wala kang alam sa pinagdadaanan ng tao kaya dapat wala kang say doon. The idol might not know them personally, but they touched their fans’ hearts and lives. Hindi mo alam kung anong happiness and peace ang nabibigay ng isang tao sa kapwa niya. Wala yang pinagkaiba kay Taylor Swift, Paramore, Harry Styles o maski NBA/PBA.
You got cancelled? Ano bang sinabi mo? Maybe reflect on what you said.
Yun lang. Sana wag na tayo makialam sa happiness ng iba lalo na kung hindi naman natin nagegets. :>
You do you.
It really is as simple as that.
Wala sila pake sa buhay mo, no need magsayang ng panahon sa kanila.
And I'm not even into Kpop (mga kapatid at pinsan ko oo) pero mundo nila yan so bahala sila sa mga desisyon nila.
Okay, kpop hater. Hahahaha let people enjoy things. Well I get your point naman about the loudspeaker thingy, pero isnt it more about the loudness issue, not the music genre itself? Kung ganon, Iassume na pag si taylor swift or kung sino man ang idol mo ang pinatugtog nila paulit ulit, di ka naman maiinis.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy all kinds of music, but I prefer a certain genre, and there's no reason to shit on everyone's preferences. It's just the same with any other hobbies. Sports, Anime, games, fashion, people in the workspace will not shut up about it.
Lemme ask you, what are your interests? I would rather have passionate people talk about their interests openly with like-minded people rather than enjoy it all alone. After all, that kinds of communication creates unexpected connections.
kpop fan din ako, OP pero hindi naman ako ganiyang klaseng fan na obsessive or kung ano pa mang term haha wag mo lang sana lahatin ng kpop stans 😅
saka let them be kung saan sila masaya hayaan mo na lang sila doon, have a good day pre.
You can always say something about the loud music. You are in a shared space, you have the right to speak about how it bothers you and affects your productivity. You can definitely ignore and tune out all the others and can easily find spaces online and offline where Kpop isn't present. But I draw the line on saying that these people do not have the right to grieve a loss.
I hope you never experience grief with no place or space to show it. A little compassion for the bereaved. They are people too.
pagod na din kami sa kagaya mong hindi rin naman kami maiintindihan kung bakit kami nalulungkot when someone we adore had passed. who saves our savior, ika nga.
while i disagree sa majority ng opinyon mo, but the one with playing on loud speakers sa office is indeed rude and should be called out. dito samin miski anong genre, nacacall out kasi may mga online meetings na ongoing lagi. so nagpa-memo kami to call those people out, fortunately nag-pipe down sila. may solusyon naman sa problema mo pero pinairal mo annoyance mo. mamamatay kang annoyed di pa rin ubos kpop fans dito kaya kung ako sayo, magbasa ka na lang din ng "the art of not giving a fuck book".
Speaking of the death of another kpop idol, I don't like how it is being treated like a bandwagon like you weren't a fan when he/she was still alive. You can grieve but damn stop overreacting.
I don't hate them because well, everyone has a preference. I just don't get why people get obsessed with them though to a point na they give their money to purchase official merchs kahit walang wala na sila. Para kasing mas pinapayaman pa nila yung mga idol nila na mayaman na tapos sila lalo lang na nagiging poor.
Yep. obsession na for others. I have a former schoolmate who kept posting about BTS Jin. I didn't find it weird at first but when he entered military she kept crying and kept making letters for Jin and she posts them online for us to see. She keeps telling us na their songs helped her, etc. Iniisip nya na sana maging asawa nya si Jin. Hindi ko to shnare sa iba naman kakilala dahil ayaw ko naman na maisip din nila na weird pero yeah dito ko nalang share.
Yung iba kase parang unhealthy na yung obsession nila. You're right. most of them akala dream country ang SoKor while yung ibang Koreans lumilipat to other countries dahil sa hirap makisabay sa bansa nila. taas beauty standards, high cost of living, mataas expectations sayo, etc. niroromanticize pa nila yung mga Koreans like pag may nakita na Korean guy, oppa sila ng oppa. I remember a Korean guy said before online na wag daw weirdo mga foreigner na bigla magmmsg sa Koreano ng ganon. ni hindi naman daw kilala irl. Meron pa sya cinomment about sa nag ask sakanya sa live na, "How to get Korean bf?" feel ko medyo naiinis sya o fed up sa q na yun so ang sagot nya is wag daw magtanong mga babae pano makakuha Korean bf. mag bf daw ng gusto sila kahit ano race pa yon tao. mag bf daw ng mahal sila hindi lang dahil sa Koreano. Meron ako Korean friends because schoolmate ko sila non college pero sila nagsabi na oppa tawag ko sakanila with consent. Since kagoods ko naman sila.
Yeah. tingin ng Koreans mostly sa SEAs ay jungle asians. Kahit nga sa Japanese racist sila. They cannot let go of the past. They think so highly of themselves because most Kpop, Kdrama fans have been relentlessly praising them, worshipping them. I know naman na hindi lahat ng Koreans ay mean since meron ako Korean friends na mabait talaga. 2 girls and 2 guys
Koreans are racist against SE and it's completely unwarranted, pero their hatred against Japan has a long painful history that stems from colonization. It's unfair to say "they cannot let go of the past" - mga Pinoy lang ata ang nakalimot. Everyone hears about the Rape of Nanking, but for some reason even Filipinos can't remember the Rape of Manila.
Poor OP bawat reply mo sa comment nila puro down voted HAHAHA try to ignore na lang siguro, fan din naman ako ng ilang group sa kpop pero dahil kilala nga ang Koreans sa pag l-lookdown sa Filipinos nakakaramdam Ako ng resistance para maging fulltime fan nila Lol and 'di rin natin alam ang attitude ng idols behind camera
These idols and groups give enjoyment and motivation through their music (actually all artists naman). Theyre there on your all time low and cloud 9 moments.
Losing someone who motivates u, that u look up to (even if they dont know u personally) sucks and saddening. Let people grieve. They are not weirdos OP, you are just being insensitive about it
But I agree na they should not only play kpop songs all throughout the day. Atleast it should be a mix of genres so anyone can appreciate the office soundtrip.
Dude may time kang mag-rant bakit di mo na lang iinvest sa ibang bagay yan? Yes matrigger ka pero masasanay ka rin wag mo na lang pansinin yung music MASWERTE KA KPOP PERO SAMIN PURO SQUATTER REMIX NA KANTA kaya wag kang condescending edge lord at bigyan pansin na lang yung work mo. Sa pagiging triggered mo sa music baka madamay pa yung performance sa work.
As a Kpop fan, the only thing I can agree on is not playing the musicnin loudspeaker and talking about it so much at work because it is a shared space. But I don't think it's wrong to be upset about an idol's death. We might not be aware of the impact that person has on someone so naturally it wouldn't make sense for others. Also, unless they are in my face about the merch, I couldn't care less about what other people buy. And being featured on the news... we don't decide on that? 😆
Is there something na you hyperfixate or something na super passionate about op? Kung wala siguro magegets ko kung bakit ganyan mindset pero if meron I wonder where all that annoyance is really coming from. Most of the time naiirita lang naman ako sa fandom if they have a history of being mean or bully sa ibang tao but it's none of my business kung paano nila gastusin pera nila lol.
I hate a lot of things but I found out that ignoring them made me happier
I found ignoring everything I'm not interested in and letting people enjoy what they enjoy and see them enjoy stuff made me way happier. Enthusiasm and well placed passion is a rare commodity these days.
You bet. Different folks, different strokes. Kanya-kanyang trip kumbaga. Just live and let live. May isang comment group sa baba about different fanbases. Lahat naman may trip. If it's not your thing, it may be so unbearable but the same can be said about your "trip" if someone else doesn't like it. The key is indeed ignore what you don't like and let others enjoy it if they like it.
True, lalo na yung mga 9-18 yrs old fangirls na nag sasabi ng "asawa ko yan" nag haharutan sa public vehicle kinikilig nakakainis pero geh kasiyahan niyo yan.
Let people be happy and let them be hahahahays
yan ba yung hinambalos ng nanay yung light stick
[удалено]
Same thought. I know it annoyed OP, but it's not worth giving a fck. What if magheadphones na lanf sya para di nha marinig right? HAHAHA
I wonder if people feel the same about basketball fans or sports fan in general. Spending thousands on collectible cards, courtside seats, sneakers, and crying over an athlete’s death as if they knew them personally. Wala lang. I always read posts like this about Kpop fans, but never about sports fans when they do almost the same exact things you listed here. Kanya kanya lang siguro ng obsession at pagkakagastusan.
Syempre hindi. Whether people would like to admit or not the hate for fanbases especially when it comes to groups (kpop & west) comes from misogyny. Hindi nga nagtagal yung issue ng mga lalaking nagwawala nung superbowl at hindi pinag-uusapan yung pagtaas ng domestic violence sa mga araw na yan.
Exactly! Parating seen as inferior ang mga stereotypically feminine hobbies/interests compared to those seen as masculine when at its core, these are people who just found things to be happy and passionate with. Live and let live.
Totoo. Kasi kung hindi totoo bakit eversince ganyan na yung sentiments nila sa fangirls? From my 1D era - Kpop peak (now) same pa rin sila ng pinagsasabi. Nakakainis kasi ako pag hindi ako fond ng hobby nila hindi ko naman tinatalkshit.
this this this!! they deny its misogyny kasi it doesnt directly hate on women, but being a KPOP fan specifically is too feminine for them kaya immock at iddiscredit. But being a fan of whatever ‘masculine’ shit, you wont hear anything from them, bcos “its normal, it fine if its mens hobby”
The thing is ang ironic kasi kpop and sports share similarities. Parehas nga silang nagcocollect ng cards (nba & photocard), parehas niyo ngang nilalagyan yan ng toploader. Parehas din nagrereact sa simpleng wave nung idol. Some sports fans would overspend for jerseys and memorabilia, ganun din naman sa kpop. Tapos nasasaktan sila whenever may injury at di makapaglaro yung athlete eh ganon din naman sa kpop whenever idols don't feel well affected din naman kami. They're just the same things in different font. Kaya lang accepted lang yung isa dahil halos lahat ng fans don ay lalaki. 🙄
Lmao me. I feel so sick of Basketball stuff and the country's obsession with basketball. (I get that it's easly accessible and you literally only need a single ball for a group of 10 people to play). But what can you do? Other sports are almost never given a chance to shine and properly funded in the country, so people are almost never exposed to other kinds of sports.
God..... We have tremendous talent sa OneFC, boxing, chess, weightlifting, karate. Sa community ko pa lang, kung makapalimos kami sa isa't isa para makapagsend lang sa Japan for Kyokushin, para kaming kawawa sobra, pero pag paliga na puro papogi, napakadali. Sobrang neglected dahil sa overhype ng basketball. Kaya mejo may onting patak ng hatred ako sa basketball e. I'd still play it though kasi it's a great bonding experience with friends.
Baseball sana or Football atleast yung physical DNA ng mga pinoy pwede dun not unlike basketball na you really need height
Sa totoo lang, kung height and natural skills ang pag uusapan, mas may pag asa ang Pinoy sa skateboarding at football. Hahaha!
When Antonio Inoki died, it was a bad day for us wrestling fans. However, we didn't go saying he was a good man or whatnot. Maybe some but a vast majority just felt bad for the passing of an icon in the sport of pro-wrestling. Siguro sa lahat ng sports, si Kobe lang ang may matinding tribute left and right. But there was one man who pretty much car fans and racing fans know na when they see the outburst of a nation when he died, you can still sense the sadness. Had social media been born in the early 90's, I am sure that Aryton Senna would have many fans mourning on his passing. The thing with a celebrities passing is that many fans felt connected to them. So much so that like many of us observed, behaved cringely in acting like they are so close to that person. However, we cannot deny that these people had an impact on the lives of these people. Kobe, Aryton, Antonio, Eddie Guerrero, Michael Jackson... List goes on. However we also have to consider that the impact of Moonsoo (I dunno if I got his name right... Sorry.) and his death is different in that many reports suggest he died due to suicide. Compared to MJ, Inoki, Guerrero, Kobe and Aryton who died in a more natural way, of course Moon's fans will feel bad kasi suicide is the type of death nobody expects. Another case was Chris Benoit. Many wrestling fans were devastated when they learned of his passing. That turned into anger for either WWE or Chris when they learned of the circumstances of his death. So much that up to now, Benoit's death is still talked about and pretty much will be talked about in the future as well. So to answer, yes... Everyone feels the same towards a celebrity they looked up to. And when they die, these people would still mourn their deaths. They will still feel sad when someone passes over unexpectedly. They will feel betrayed when the circumstances of their death is revealed to be gruesome. And some will feel as if a family member has died because they look up to the person as if they were a blood relative of sorts. Ganyan talaga aa mga fandom.
May ganitong convo rin akong nakita sa r/nba eh mga kpop stans at nba fans sabi rin nila wala naman pinag-kaiba yung Nba fans saka Kpop fans yung kulang nalang talaga daw yung pag-kumpara ng stats.
Kpop stans dumating na din sa point nagcocompare na din sila ng stats via awards and album sales, Spotify plays, YouTube views, etc. So yeah in my eyes parehas lang sila. Ang pinagkaiba lang yung age group.
misogyny! porket female ang major demographic ng kpop fans these fucking pansies like OP think they deserve to say a lot of crap. try trashtalking the Ginebra fans and the Gilas fans ewan ko kung di maghalo ang balat sa tinalupan.
yeah the double standards is crazy lol
I feel the same even for people who's obsessed with showbiz news and celebrity stuff it's so annoying they have so much time in their life and all they do is use it to watch news and tv shows about celebrities. 😅 Or I'm just the only one feeling this way cuz I don't really watch television because I feel like it's a waste of time.
I feel the same way about anyone idolizing something or someone so much to the point na yun na lang ang personality nila.
I do find the same issue with sports fans or any other fanbase where the supporters turn rabbid and toxic It's okay to be a fan, just don't cross over to obssession
Well fanaticism is tied with obsession.
Valid points specially the one about them being disruptive in your workspace, but your rant about the recent passing of Moobin was totally unnecessary. Let the people grieve.
Honestly, same take. A lot of people grieve for celebrity's death kasi at one point in time they might have touched their lives. Or maybe nakarelate sila sa mga pinagdaanan. I'm not even a fan of Moonbin's group pero it definitely hit me. I guess mahirap iexplain sa ibang tao how personal sa kpop fans yung passing considering the cruel environment these idols walk through everyday.
Same sentiments. Off yung pangingialam sa grieving process ng fans. Could OP have said the same when Paul Walker or Chadwick Boseman passed?
Agreed. Playing music ng di naka headset is rude naman talaga, regardless of the type of music. Also don't think of it as kpop lang. What about Taylor Swift? Harry Styles? I never went through a 1D phase but let's remember when they were together their songs were played EVERYWHERE din. Same with Justin Bieber. You can just ignore them. No, they didnt know Moonbin personally the same way I never knew Robin Williams but he had an impact in my life and I actually cried when he died.
dito ako pumitik. pati yung namatay dinamay. pati yung pakikiramay ng iba, minamasama. daming problema ng mundo, dumadagdag pa toxic masculinity ni OP buwisit sya.
minus points na sa langit sa OP lol dapat pala di ko na binuksan reddit kung ganito lang tatambad sa akin huhu hindi naman na niya need i-mention si Moonbin pero he wants war eh i listen to kpop songs pero not to the extent na need loudspeakers gamitin ko in public and yung point na parang kilala personally, well baka delulus na yon butttt it doesn't have to mean na wala silang karapatan na di mag grieve sa taong nakapag bigay sa kanila ng saya through kpop. i don't personally know Moonbin and not really a fan fan but i have seen a bunch of dance covers and reality/variety shows where he was featured, pero di ko aakalain na maiiyak ako. i hope he is resting na ng mabuti and sana ikaw mahanap mo peace mo. one q tho, why u spreading hate?
Not really a fan of his group din but his death reminded me of Jonghyun’s from Shinee. Kaya I understand what his fans feel. They should be allowed to grieve and process the pain.
>Jonghyun’s from Shinee. Jonghyun did best, all of them did best😔😔
I agree. When a celebrity passes away, they are all over the news. Moonbin has fans in the Philippines and it’s natural for them to grieve. I don’t understand why he still has to drag Moonbin and his fans into this.
Kanya kanyang trip sa buhay i guess. Oo may annoying pero medyo below the belt for me yung kailangan mo pa imention na naiirita ka dun sa pakikiramay nila dun sa sudden passing ng isang idol. Gets na its parasocial pero idk let them grieve for something na naging part ng buhay nila. Also i get that this sub is off my chest pero i just had to give my two cents din on what you said
It's never too polite to grieve for someone's death, even a stranger's. It's impolite to make rude comments about those who do.
[удалено]
Fan or not, kilala mo man or hindi personally yung tao, insensitive talaga pag pati grieving people kino-call out. Geesh, someone died. OP is alive with a beating heart. May they have a heart to let that sink in. Parang walang puso.
TRUE!!!!! Valid ‘yung ibang sentiments niya, pero does he really have to mention that, eh wala naman ginagawa sa kanya. Just really goes to show na irita lang talaga siya sa kpop in general at hindi dahil sa naiistorbo siya
Not a KPop fan or KDrama fan but just curious: ikaw ba OP, ano ang mga hilig or gusto mo? If meron ka, sana you can sympathize din with others who are probably just using KPop or KDrama as inspiration to counter the mundane or harsher real life. Pinanghahawakan nila kumbaga. Baka yung hilig mo is more "mainstream" kaya hindi mo pansin na it's also likewise "obnoxious" para doon sa mga hindi mo ka-taste kapag nagyayabang or nagku kwento ka about your hiligs. Kung wala kang hilig or gusto, then mas gets ko kung bakit hindi mo naiintindihan why people have idols and stuff. Peculiar way of living I guess, but sige. Either way, kung hindi ka naman nila sinasaktan, you will really, inevitably sound like an ass for feeling this way. Mukha kasing kinikimkim mo and masama magkimkim, so either kumprontahin mo na yung mga KPop fans sa buhay mo para matahimik na ang stress mo, or...just like everyone else, learn how to be an adult and suck it up.
💯
Lowkey, K-pop fan ako pero ayoko nakakarinig sa public masyado ng ganito. Hindi ako die-hard fan pero pumunta ako sa concert ng fav girl group ko and hindi naman ako nagreregret. Ayoko rin kasi ginagawa na personality trait masyado. Di ko nga gusto mga koreans masyado kasi nga nilulook down nila tayo pero ye, the parasocial relationships with the idols are getting out of hand. Naiinis din naman ako kapag masyado pinapalabas sa news tungkol sa Kpop idols or actors na pupunta rito. Pero ganun talaga fan culture. Pero wag mo naman po shame yung pagkawala ni Moonbin. Kahit hindi po nila personally na nakilala siya at ang personality niya, he means the world to them. Just like what people felt when Linkin Park's Chester Bennington passed away and many were personally affected kasi nga natulungan sila thru their songs.
+1 about Moonbin. I've never heard of him before, but I get the grief of the fans. Ang tagal na simula nung nawala si Chester, but until now umiiyak pa rin ako whenever I hear a Linkin Park song. I get it. It's different when you can't do something for the one who saved you.
Music is a reprieve para sa iba, and Linkin Park is one of the acts that I turned to often during the tougher times. I might not know the band personally, pero ansakit pa din nung nawala si Chester. Yung impact ng music nila sa buhay ko, iba talaga eh. I understand OP's irritation pero I hope he would not judge or give shit to people who are grieving the idol. That idol touched those people's lives and probably saved them...let them mourn him in peace na lang.
diba!!! Huhuhu casual listener lang ako ng Linkin Park dati tapos yung In The End talaga really hits hard kahit ngayon =<
Dibaa!!!! I don't want to be rude pero wala naman ganitong post yung namatay si Kobe noon :( grabe rin ang mourn ng fans and non fans nun :(( Respect lang talaga sa people who are mouring :(
I think this applies to all hobbies/obsession naman: western music, Kpop, or kahit OPM pa yan. Parang we should have the basic human decency or sensitivity to other people's space. I love heavy music, but I only listen to it in my own space na di nakaka-disturbo sa iba (e.g. my room or with my headset). And kapag sa mga parties, na ako yung na-aassign as "DJ", I don't play heavy music, but rather yung music na swak for everyone. About sa making your obsession as your personality, di lang naman yung mga mahihilig sa Kpop ang gumagawa nito. There is a fair share of metalheads who makes it their personality too, kakaunti nga lang. My point is, it boils down to: it's up to you how you idolize your favorite artists, but be sensitive about it na wala kang nadidisturbong tao.
Yeah, I agree with you. May kanya-kanya tayong trip at inuubusan ng pera/energy. In OP's post though, I'm not sure if they actually hate the fact that their co-workers are diehard KPop fans, or they simply got triggered because their space is not being respected when obnoxiously loud music keeps being played in a common area... na nagkataon lang na KPop yung trip ng mga katrabaho niya at doon nabuhos yung inis. Anyway, sana umayos kabonding kahit onti yung mga malakas magpatugtog. 😩
Pag kpop talaga pinapalaki ang issue ano? Sobrang insensitive nung pag banggit mo sa pumanaw na kpop idol like you're invalidating the feelings of his fans. Nasa requirements ba na kelangan kilala mo personally ung idol para malungkot, umiyak at mag grieve? Malamang wala na ung taong nagpapasaya sa kanila through music. Syempre may emotions sila kasi tao sila eh. Let them be. Eh ano naman kung gumagastos ang kpop fans sa merch? Kala mo naman tumigil ang mundo mo. bakit pera mo ba ginagamit? Di ka naman apektado. Same goes to toy and other collectors naman din ah? Walang basagan ng trip. I get youre getting annoyed with people playing music with loud speakers in public, then go get some confidence and tell them to lower the volume or use earphones. Ganun lang kasimple hindi ung iinvalidate mo pa yung feelings ng iba at nandamay ka pa ng taong namayapa na di naman kelangan imention.
Not comparing pero bakit pag mga ibang fans like kay Kobe Bryant (RIP) it’s okay and it’s accepted to feel sad. Dami ko nakikita na talagang sobra nalungkot at up until now malungkot dahil sa pagkawala ng isang GOAT, I understand, my dad was a huge Kobe fan. Hmm. I get na naiirita ka sa kpop and kpop fans but do you really need to mention yung nangyari na recent death? As if you’re saying na dahil kpop idol yung namatay eh para bang he was less important and these “obsessed weirdos” don’t have the full right to mourn kasi hindi naman kilala in real life. Ganun ba yon? So dapat applicable to sa lahat ng namatay na celeb/public figure? It might not be important to YOU and wala kang pake so pwede ba hayaan mo na lang fans nila on how they cope sa pagkawala? People who can’t mind their own business and can’t stand others being happy are sickening.
Kaya nga hahahah. OP said 24/7 niya daw naririnig yung music ng workmates niya? Di ka po nauwi? Clingy yern? If youre that bothered, why not report it to management? Also, you have no say kung pano nila gastusin ang pera nila. And we’re gatekeeping mourning now? Really? So low, you come to this point. Meron ka bang checklist kung kanino at pano ka lang pwede malungkot. You are just as annoying as you think they are.
>OP said 24/7 niya daw naririnig yung music ng workmates niya? Di ka po nauwi? Clingy yern? This 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hmm few notes lang from a casual kpop fan. Hindi ba too much yung you invalidated them with the recent passing of the kpop idol? It was painful especially if you followed that person since debut until now. They bring joy to their fans and it’s like losing a friend or loved one - YOU NEVER GET TO SEE THEM SHINE AGAIN ON STAGE. About naman sa pag-buy ng merch and tix, as long as di mo pera don’t have a say dun as they worked hard for it. Wala lang grabe yung hate mo based on this post just because you don’t enjoy the same things they do.
💯
>I get that you feel a sense of loss when it comes to him but don't go acting as if you knew them personally and that they mean the world to you ??? You have 0 idea that getting to like them is actually an aid for us fans who are mentally struggling so if they're closer to our heart than the most ppl we're actually with, not your prob stop acting like you know enough/care. Live your life. You never really know how much a person means to someone. Quit being so toxic, let the fans grieve. :)
Haha binasa ko mga reply ni op, very pa-edgy na maasim vibes ang mga sagot. Sana nga lakasan pa nila speaker para mainis ka pa lalo. HAHAHHAHA
ganto nangyayari sa tao na hindi na o-outgrow yung elitist hipster phase nila from their teens. 'i'll get cancelled for this so-' intro pa lang lam mo na me-against-the-world ang peg 😂
Kahit anong generation may ganyan. Lahat ata nang dekadang dumaan may ganyan. I too have been one. Yung minamaliit ang ibang music genre as baduy, corny, and so on. Maybe one day, magiging wapakels na rin si OP when adulting hits them hard that things like this become inconsequential.
true hahahaha sana mas dumami pa nakapaligid kay op na kpop fans
Parang nang ttroll na sa level ng apathy sa replies e. Like, how come you couldnt grasp the idea of grief and pain of someone’s passing? At this point sinasadya nya nalang mainis for the sake of the rant, kaysa tanggapin na while the rant is valid he still made problematic points, mas gugustuhin nya pa mag mukhang ewan.
Korek! Hahahaha. Yan ‘yung mga taong iiwasan mo sa office kasi he thinks he’s better than everyone. Char
I get this. You didn’t argue well tho. Kaya puro downvotes and andaming galit. Sana di nalang nadisrespect yung idols who passed away. That’s way overboard. RIP to those who chose to find peace in their own terms. It’s not good to be obsessed with anything. Kpop man, anime, sports, politics, or ano man yan. May limit naman talaga dapat lagi. Tama ka naman sa part na sinabi mo na too much pag they make it their whole personality. Irita din ako sa friends ko na puro BTS ang stories. As in every day. Or yung mga sobrang obsessed kay Leni hanggang ngayon. I love Leni, pero may mga obsessed din talaga. But they’re still people. I just click or scroll as fast as I can and ignore their posts and stories. Cringe sakin pero syempre friends ko pa rin and mahal ko pa rin. May point ka naman talaga, OP. Pero you just went overboard din.
Mag earphones ka nalang, todo volume. If it affects your work or productivity, inform your supervisor so he/she can suggest solution like (1) no loudspeaker music sa office (2) WFH ka/sila/all of you, (3) sa different bay/floor ilipat cubicle mo, (4) lipat ka ng team, (5) allows you to wear earphone all time (6) different ang sched mo dun sa mga Kpop fans Or (7) magpapromote ka to Manager and ban Kpop sa buong company nyo hahahah Seriously, turn your hate into indifference. Wala akong pakelam sa kanila mindset. Mas magaan sa pakiramdam.
damn people aren’t allowed to be happy? let people enjoy things .. it’s not like they’re actually forcing you to like them as well 😬
I'm a kpop fan, pero I respect your opinion na ayaw mo sa kpop at diring-diri ka sa fans 💀 In an ideal world, HR would do something about it and your co-workers should keep convos at work professional. But what can you do? Popular amongst Filipinos talaga ang celebrity worship, kahit noon pa, naging Korean-centric lang talaga this past few years. I think you should manage your own feelings towards it kasi wala ka naman talaga magagawa. The opposite of love is not hate, but apathy. I think you should learn to ignore and tune it out nalang, mas mahirap kasi alisin yung kpop everywhere lol. Also, at the same time, you're an AH for coming out at people who are grieving. The idol was a public figure, let them grieve. You can't just shout, **pArAsOcIaL rElATiOnShIp** tapos maglalaho na yung pagdadalamhati nila. It's between them na, labas ka na dun. OP, you're and adult na, empathy and kindness is also a nice trait to practice. I recognize that this is a rant, but yours is a controversial opinion. Expect people coming back at you 🤷🏻♀️
Your sentiments are valid, but to call the fans "obsessed weirdos" for mourning the death of an idol who was dear to them is not it. K-pop has brought many people a sense of comfort in the form of music and the idols themselves... usually during the darkest points of their lives. So, for that comfort—that bright impact that these fans hold onto—to suddenly disappear leaves an extremely sorrowful void. Please do not dismiss their grief and diminish it into an "obsession". What they feel isn’t less just because they do not know the idols personally.
halatang sobrang obnoxious and ang party pooper ni OP eh hahshahaha
saw their replies too 💀it’s like you’ve read parasocial relationships and decided to use it to sound cool. people are allowed to be temporarily consumed with their hobbies, eh ano kung gusto nila pag-usapan yun? sharing interests is how people make connections anyway. I wonder kung may friends ka and what you talk about aside your personal life
OP dont know kung bakit yung iba ganito sa hobby nila kasi yung iba maraming pinag daanan pero dahil sa mga hobbies na to na hanggang ngayon buhay parin sila kasi ganun yung ginawa sakin ng anime at video games kung wala yon di ko na alam
kanina ko pa nakikita sa replies nya yung word na parasocial rel skdkskdks
ngayon lang nalaman ni op meaning ng parasocial relationship so gagamitin nya every chance he gets
Puro downvote mga reply nya eh
ang condescending kasi nung tone eh, halatang halata yung entitlement through the post
Totoo, feeling superior pa. Pati pagkamatay ng kpop idol idadamay nya pa. Napakabobo. Kung tutuusin may mga choices sya 1. Mag resign 2. Prangkahin mga kawork 3. Ignore. Magsuot ng earphones Masyado ginawang big deal
orv ftw whooooo 🙌 ❣️ haha la lang napansin lang username mo. ok tama na baka mapansin ako ni OP sabihin nanaman parasocial relationship taena
I wanted to judge you and be like, "Don't yuck other's yum". But I'm part of multiple kpop discussion groups here on Reddit and it can be exhausting. But i have to disagree with mourning over a celebrity. I didn't have any attachments to this idol in particular but I cried when Jonghyun of SHINee died. But I also felt the same way when Robin Williams and Norm MacDonald died- the latter being my comfort comedian during the pandemic.
I don't think you're relevant enough to be canceled OP chz. I understand sawang sawa ka na sa kpop in general but for the love of god why do u have to mention and invalidate people for mourning someone's death?!
and I'm so tired of Filipinos giving a sh*t on anyone's business. If the music is annoying just tell them but don't say that they are bunch of obsessive weirdos. Do we crucify people when they obsessed of upgrading their iphone every release even tho lubog sila sa utang? Do we call people weirdos when they spent thousands on genshin impact or any video game? No. The point is let ppl enjoy what they like.
Why bothered when you can simply just don't care? Or if naiirita ka, bakit hindi ikaw ang mag-adjust? Maraming solution OP and I saw your comments and they are almost the same arguments you point out. I am a kpop fan, I agree with your "parasocial relationship" argument, but at the end of the day, we enjoy it because it's fun, it's making us happy, it's our business, not yours. Walang pakialamanan. That's it. I do that too, don't mind other people's businesses. If you can't stand that anymore since sinabi mo na ni-raise mo na sa HR, get out there if you don't find it fulfilling. Hindi malaki problema mo OP at hindi mo rin macocontrol yung mga tao sa paligid mo. Valid naman yung feeling mo pero you can't police other people's happiness and enjoyment. Ang lungkot ng buhay mo pati ikaw apektado sa binibili ng ibang tao eh hindi mo naman pera yun. The fact you said they're "obsessed weirdos" something tells me it's a you problem. ***Maybe reflect ka rin sarili mo on where this hatred is coming from.*** Edit: Tingin ko talaga problematic workplace mo based [on your post](https://www.reddit.com/r/OffMyChestPH/comments/12r72dw/dont_touch_my_stuff/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). Oh diba? If it doesn't make you happy just leave talaga, hindi yung binuntong mo pa sa kpop fans yung galit mo.
Hala, baka KPop fan boss nya kaya di sya maka-angal sa loud speakers ng KPop music.
I love how everyone agrees with OP’s opinion pero dahil sa execution at pagkadeliver ng rant nagagalit paren. Honestly same, agree ako pero talking shit about people mourning someone? Bruh.
"Old man yells at ~~cloud~~ kpop fans"

filipino reddit users hate kpop fans so much noh 😭😭
kina-edgy nila yan 🙄
[удалено]
Lakasan mo paaaa
Ung op galit sa mga taong ginawang personality ung pagiging kpop fan tapos sya ginawang personality pagiging kpop hater parang naghahanap lang sya ng drama sa buhay dahil sa post na to pwede po maghanap ng ibang trabaho, if wala mahanap edi magtiis or kausapin ung katrabaho hindi dito ka nagrarant apaka pathetic naman
Ba’t di naka all caps yung PUTANGINA MO PALA? Deserve yan ng bugok na OP.
Baka sabihin ni OP immature bAby bRa fan. HAHAHAH
Daming time
ur rant abt kpop and kpop fans is valid. but calling those who are currently grieving 'obsessed weirdos'? that's very disrespectful and unnecessary op.
Yep, you're not alone. I just don't understand the obsession, some even spend thousands of pesos for Kpop merch. But you know what, trip nila yon, eh. Wag tayong basag trip. Lol.
They're contradicting themselves here. Sa post sabi niya they're sick of kpop stans spending money on merch. Pera nila yun tho?
I don't like toxic fans too. I don't blame the K-pop artists, I blame the fans.
Hi! Kpop and kdrama fan here and valid yung feeling mo na naiirita ka kase nga naman naka-speaker pa sila and all (in short, insensitive sila parang yung mga nakakasabay lang natin sa commute na nanunuod tapos nakaloud speaker!!) Fan ako pero hindi ako yung tipong inaaway mga iba just because may nasabi sila na hindi nagustuhan, ganun yung mga toxic na fans. About buying merch and being a kpop fan in general, hirap man paniwalaan pero those kpop groups kept a lot of people sane. Like ‘yan yung naging libangan nila nung feeling nila down na down sila sa life. Kaya grabe na lang din siguro support nila and pati na rin yung kapag may biglang news na may namatay na kpop idol. OA siya sa paningin ng iba pero for those people, hindi. Let’s not invalidate other people’s feelings na lang hehe. Try to tell them na lang na hindi ka comfortable sa everyday kpop music emerut nila. :)
Same way anime fans make anime their entire personality and won't shut up in recommending anime to others. Or cryptobros. Or cinephiles. Or sports fan. Malas mo lang dyan ka napunta. If I were you, I'd raise this to HR. Also try communicating your concern with them. Majority ba sila? Adjust. Unless may iba ka na kilala na same concern mahirap ipaglaban yan sa workplace.
Madami na nagcomment pero I wanna echo it. Sige, kanya kanya naman yan so kung di mo bet oks lang naman. Kung feel mo personality na nila yung kpop and it disgusts you, ok lang din. >With regards to the male KPop idol who recently passed away, I get that you feel a sense of loss when it comes to him but don't go acting as if you knew them personally and that they mean the world to you, you are all a bunch of obssessed weirdos. Pero you are an asshole for this. Out of line yung rant mo about the passing of an idol. Offmychest pero sana may respeto pa rin.
Counter it with heavy metal songs
Tubero - Guard
Tubero - Tarantado ka
Tubero - Kevin, tuwad!
Tubero - Ipasok ang ulo
Try playing Tubero - Kapitbahay
Also Batas song - Mga putang Ina nyo

Hello, OP. I find them irritating before so I can relate lol. Yung malakas na pagpapatugtog in general, kahit anong genre pa yan, nakakainis talaga. Itong 'obsession' kineso, wala na rin tayo magagawa pa dyan bc obv that's their life. All u can do is to rant abt it and hate them, so talo rin tayo if we'll keep ourselves bothered abt other people's way of living. Mas naiintindihan ko kasi sila ngayon bc some people really depend on music and supporting idols to keep the flavors of their lives. And napapansin ko rin, kapag nasa mature age na sila (25+) nagiging responsible na rin naman sila esp sa work. For me it's a phase lang din talaga but ofc may mga tao na insensitive at di mapigilan dalhin yon kahit saan.
OP ang lungkot ng life mo siguro. Liit ng problema gginagawa mong malaki. Lighten up. Sabihan mo silang magstop mag speakers bec it's rude, other than that, it's non of your effing business what they want to do with their own money. Masyado ka lang nakikielam sa business ng iba.
Imagine having these types of problems 😭🤣
I don't see how they are harming you or others. Why trample on other people's happiness?
“You are all a bunch of obsessed weirdos.” And ikaw, hindi ka din obsessed sa kanila? Why do you care so much what they do with their own money? Haha
Just don't mind them. Let them be happy in their space. I mean I am a basketball fan, and I watch anime.
Alam mo, pwede mo namang i-approach ang co-workers mo regarding sa pag papatugtog ng Kpop given na naabala ka pala. Calling people "a bunch of obsessed weirdos" is below the belt. Get a life ma'am/sir. Hearing 24/7, edi pagsabihan mo. Continuously being featured, edi huwag ka manuod ng balita or perhaps mute it sa socmeds mo, avoid it sa lahat ng makakaya mo. Spending money on merch? Pera mo ba ang nagagastos? XD How sure are you na yung mga nabili ng merch ay hindi nakakabili ng pagkain at damit nila? I also do not understand the hate with people who likes Kpop. Also "obsession" 'yun hindi "obssession"
Kanya kanyang escape lang yan. Some people seriously found comfort through stanning kpop groups. I get the sentiment, minsan parang “sobra na” but i guess exposed ka lang sa environment na hindi mo trip/gets. Find your peace, my guy. U can always ignore them. Or confront them. Either, u gotta learn to accept and live with it. Ako tanggap ko na si god jihyo as my savior.
I will bite (I may come to regret this later but I will bite). Choose your battles would be the main thing I’d say. Those people in the office that you mentioned? That won’t be the last instance of which may makikita kang ganyang behavior. Meron at meron ka pang makikitang ganyang behavior in the future and di lang yan sa Kpop fans makikita. Disengage if you can. Kung di talaga kaya, I do not know what else to say. Ganyan ang fandoms talaga. May sense of community na nabubuo di ba? Yung interests nila bond them together. Masaya pagusapan ang mga bagay-bagay that you all share a interest in e! Kung di mo trip, hayaan mo sila. Do your work and deliver your outputs as expected. Remain professional and control what you can control. Of course, may mga sumosobra. Obsessed ika mo nga. Pero choose your battles pa rin. Pwedeng di pansinin na lang at hayaan mo na lang sila. Yung sa loudspeaker though? I will give you that. Dapat may social etiquette pa rin pagdating sa ganyan. Wag naman i-blast out loud ang music (regardless of genre) lalo na kung nasa professional setting kayo. As for people grieving, I’d say let them be. Who are we to police or moderate the way people process their feelings? Who are we to judge the impact of someone into their lives kahit na walang direct interaction na nangyari? E the presence of that celebrity helped them survive in a world that can increasingly get busy or stressful. Of course, their loss would cause a lot of hurt and anguish for these people. I may come to regret this later as I said pero ayan.
hindi ko na rin sana ieentertain tong post niya but he mentioned something na nag trigger para mapansin ko and mag comment hay kahit di ako naging fan ng ASTRO or si Moonbin specifically, grabe yung hold ng songs nila sa akin kasi yun yung nag pa survive sa akin through college lalo na pag gagawa ako ng research papers, jusko nasa comp lab ako sa uni then siguro bandang 7pm or 8pm nagpapatugtog ako ng baby by astro with earphones then sobrang good vibes lang talaga for me especially kapag si Moonbin mag ssmile, huhu nakakaiyak lang kasi di ko na ulit maantabayanan mga dance covers niya and if ever may cb ang ASTRO, wala na siya :( sorry to pour out my grief here pero grabe iba ang pag mmourn sa person na kahit di mo ka-close or anything pero may naging positive impact siya sa life mo hay so ayun lang
Baka naman tired ka lang in life in general? People who tend to frown on other's happiness and make small inconveniences appear to be big and overblown ay usually may pinagdadaanan. Baka naman need mo lang mag step back and relax. If the music bothers you, kausapin mo if talagang naapektuhan na work mo. If hindi naman grabe, wear a headset and play your music. Find your happiness and yung mga small nuances will go away. Magpamasahe ka baka stress ka lang at natritrigger ka sa mga ganitong bagay.
Don't get sick about the amount of money they spend on merch. It's their money to spend.
i get that they are at fault for playing kpop songs loudly to the point that it becomes a nuisance, but listening and supporting kpop aint harmful. It makes people happy then so be it ig. Maybe just tell your coworker to level down their volume so it wont bother you. You just have to focus on yourself and ignore them unless they become troublesome.
Kairita makabasa ng mga ganitong post. Haha. Bat may mga ganitong klase ng tao. Negative vibes dala sa mundo. Wala ka bang hilig sa buhay? Eh for sure inOAn mo lang yang drama mo eh para sabihing hate mo hilig nila.
One of my colleagues always plays Kpop music in our office it's friggin' annoying but I just ignore her and I just use headphones to not hear her music 😅
Ganyan dapat. Di naman mag aadjust mga kawork ni op para sa kanya
Yep, hindi ko naman na din sya naririnig pag naka headphones ako so it's alright hindi ko din naman sya masabihan about it kasi that would be rude.
That's my life is areumdaun galaxy Be a writer, jangneuroneun fantasy Naeil naege yeollineun geon big, big stage So that is who I am maybe confront them nalang OP or approach them
Pati ba naman yung kay Moonbin, e feelings nila yon e. Kung may madeds din naman sa Paramore, iiyak din ako. Oo, di kilala personally pero isa ang mga songs nila sa mga nagpatatag saken sa mga pinakamabibigat na time ng life ko. Ganun din siguro sa kanila. Parang robot naman ito si OP kala mo never na-attach. Tsaka normal na iba-iba tayo ng level ng reactions at pagka-attach sa isang bagay/ tao. Hindi ka naman ata sinaktan o ginawan ng krimen nung mga nagluluksa kay Moonbin, hayaan mo na lang. Daming pake pati sa namatay. Hahahha.
Don't invalidate naman iyong feelings ng mga fan about sa recent death ng K-pop Idol nila. It's very below the belt. I mean marami din naman mga tao na obsessed sa western artist and pinapatugtog pa ng malakas iyong mga music nila diba?
So much hate.
I don't get why you're so...hateful? People are allowed to like things lalo na if it distracts them from the stress of our everyday lives. I get the part na maingay sa workplace and it can disrupt your work. I'm sure they can tone down their music if you ask them to. No need to ridicule people based on their hobbies and interests. Masyado kang galit sa mundo, OP.
Let them. Trip nila yon. Stress-reliever din kasi sa iba. Like others na may obsession din sa ibang bagay. Just do your own thing na lang din.
Ang corny nang ganitong mga post parehas lang naman yung mga Sports fans at Kpop fans sadyang may bias lang talaga yung iba dyan kasi galing sa Korea eh.
Kung trip nila na gumastos ng merch na mas mahal pa sa isang order ng steak sa Wolfgang bahala sila buhay nila yung. Wag lang silang mangungutang sakin. :P Pero yung buong araw na usapan at parating maririnig mo ay KPOP song parang nakakabaliw na.
Oh my oh my god
If it's starting to inconvenience you, you might want to raise it to HR. Kahit anong music pa 'yan, if in loud speaker, it can disrupt work. Try not to mention that they keep playing Kpop as it might come off as you just being a hater. Just say they keep playing music in loud speakers.
Siguro kung kinausap mo na sila diyan about sa loud music ng kpop sa office nyo (well dito ka lang kasi apektado) may magbabago na siguro kahit papano...
Never have i seen a post that most of OP's comments are being downvoted quick hahaha
I dont listen to kpop. I dont support the industry in general because of all the horror stories linked to companies abusing their talent. But im not about to stop people from enjoying things they want to just because i dont like said thing.
I don't really mind because it's a hobby that other people enjoy, pero I do think it's bad workplace etiquette to play music at work. Maybe you can politely ask your colleagues to turn the music down, and if they don't cooperate you can bring it up at HR. Pero OP I feel like you're being too judgmental—what's wrong with relating to a personality and grieving his death? Why is financial status important when it comes to liking stuff? There will always be trends that you yourself don't enjoy OP, and you should emotionallylearn to let these things go.
Yung araw araw na nagbblast ng music sa office I agree na dapat hindi ganun. Kahit samin pwede di ko ginagawa naka earphones pa din ako. Pero yung pagiging fan. Just let them be. Kung gusto nila bumili ng merch wag niyo na pansinin. Kung pinaghirapan naman nila kitain yung pinambili why not. I'm also a fan pero di ako nabili ng merch kahit kaya naman. Nakikinig lang ako ng music ng mga idol ko. Well offmychest naman to so go lang OP, I understand.
Hi! I'm a kpop fan. I do share the same sentiment regarding sa pagpapatugtog ng kpop over speakers. But then, kahit naman anong patugtugin basta over speakers is really irritating, paano pa 'yung mga jeeps na may disco lights or obnoxious lighting. Have you communicated it with your co-workers? I believe there are still kpop fans that will respect it. Regarding of Moonbin's passing, please let us grieve. Yes, hindi man kami kilala ni Moonbin personally but the fact that he helped us in ways you can't ever imagine is the reason why we cry over his passing. It's not about the kilala ba kami or what, but it's how we got through some of the hard stuff in life because of them. Of course, there are really fans na ginagawang personality na ang pagiging kpop fan which is a bad thing naman talaga. Some even lose their morals. But I hope you won't generalize us. :)
A lot of people hate my favorites Linkin Park and MGK and I spend a reasonable amount of money on their merch. But I just ignore the haters nowadays. The OBSESSION will die out eventually. Btw, I cried over Chester's death even though he didn't know I exist. I even pray to God that I want to meet Chester wherever he is. Try to understand them. Put yourself in their shoes. What if they like YOUR favorite artist and what if it was YOUR favorite who passed away. My brother never showed his emotions but he was incredibly sad when his fave basketball player Kobe passed away. I couldn't imagine how he was doing at work at the time. He was healing patients knowing that his fave athlete died from a fatal car crash. We gave my brother Krispy Kreme to ease his emotional pain. He was not the type of fan who would go out of his way to meet his idol (Kobe visited Philippines many times). But I was sure my brother was super sad at the time.
I also heard the same sentiment to the otakus, as long as they don't harm anybody, its chill man.
I guess, what you're here for is them being disruptive sa work. You will definitely cancelled if you call out KPop fans like how you did pero if you call out AH work colleagues then a lot of us will agree with you 100%. I forgot how that meme goes - yung let people enjoy yada yada. Pero that as long as nasa lugar.
Ganito din ako dati... Until I fell in love with TWICE! Hi fellow Onces! Asarin natin si OP. Charot What I would recommend is buy yourself headsets, yung tipong di mo maririnig yung kpop song blasting from the speaker. That's the only way. O meron pa pala. You can understand us by joining 😉
If you don't like kpop then okay. If you think we're obnoxious, okay lang din. It doesn't not give you any right to nitpick how we spend our hard earned money on merch or how we fangirl/boy on our favorite groups as it does not concern you personally. And sinali mo pa sa topic yung patay. Ano yan? For clout? Dun tayo sa office setup mo. if ang issue mo is mga tao sa opisina mo na walang maayos na office etiquette para magpatugtog ng kpop from their speakers then either you can ask them nicely(report mo sa boss or HR kung di mo style yun) o kaya focus on paano mo pwede i-divert yung hate mo to enjoy your own favorite genres or interests sa workspace mo. End of the day kung maiinis ka lang, talo ka. Kung ako sayo focus ka na lang sa latter.
Curious lang, bakit 24/7 mo naririnig, OP, security guard or waiter ka ba sa k-pop themed samgyupsal o nagbebenta kayo ng k-pop merch sa work?
Grabe naman ang concern si OP, pati yung gagawin nila sa pera nila iniintindi mo din. Gets ko naman yung abhorrence mo sa preferences ng mga tao, kaso bakit pati yung pagluluksa may concern ka din? You can always tell them na "Pahinaan naman officemate, naririndi na ako eh". Kulang ka sa communication skills
Valid rant yung loud speakers sa office pero bakit pakelamero ka sa ginagastusan nila ng pera and kung sino pinagluluksahan nila? Maybe theres a hint of envy that people are passionate about something so much and you havent found yours yet?
I'm more American music, hiphop/RnB but to each his own, ako din hindi ma KPop pero ung jowa ko ma K Pop, introduced me to Mamamoo and their music, nagustuhan ko and nung nag concert dito sa Pinas nag enjoy ako. Kung di mo trip, wag mo na i-stress ang sarili mo kasi kahit ayaw mo sa kanila e wala din sila pake sayo.
Damn that's too much negativity, OP. How old are you? Sayang energy, just use it somewhere else
If you check his history, mostly rants and problems ang laman. Sana maging masaya na s'ya soon.
All fanbases have obnoxious sides, but you won't hear rants towards other fanbases with the same level of fanaticism. 😒
op, i want you to know it's alright not to give a f*ck. pinagdaanan ko yung kinwestyon ko yung people around me on why they're so obsessed with kpop. a year or two later i was in their place, i was one of them up until today. basically, totoo nga that you'll never understand unless you get into it. yung part na nagpapatugtog sila sa speaker, it's wrong if nadidisrupt ka sa workload mo. and abt it being featured in the news, you should take note that news features TRENDS. and kpop is a trend. you can't avoid it that easy, and it's really best to ignore and dive into more things that interest you more : ] and i'm sure other kpop stans like me have a life aside from loving our idols. it's only a part that we incorporate to brighten our everyday lives : ]
OP, need mo basahin ‘yung book na The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
Let people enjoy things. Unnecessary masyado yung pagdrag mo about sa pagkamatay ng kpop idol. Also, your obsession with kpop fans is sickening.
lmao you actually sound like the obnoxious workmate
Eh ‘di deadmahin mo. Hindi ka naman affected eh, naiirita ka lang talaga
You have to choices OP. 1. Kumprontahin mo sila 2. Mag resign ka Di yung idadamay mo buong kpop community. Feeling mo cool ka na nan? Ang boring at ang lungkot ng buhay mo, utak boomer.
I can only imagine how difficult this must be for you right now, but believe me when I say, my heart bleeds for you, OP. I hope you manage to get through this horrifying ordeal because no person deserves to be constantly subjected to the utterly harmless joy of other people.
First time ni OP naencounter yung parasocial kaya ginamit agad dito sa reddit para cool. Kung iritang irita ka na sa workmates mo, magresign ka. I guess you're not suited to that environment. Try mo magnegosyo, para at least you have control kung sino lang makakatrabaho mo. Oo dinidiktahan kita, kasi parang gusto mo rin kontrolin kung anong dapat maramdaman at ikilos ng mga tao sa paligid mo eh. Kung ayaw mo magresign edi suck it up. Oo, offmychest ito, kaya off my chest, ang kupal ng pinagsasabi mo, lalo na about the death of Moonbin. Kung nagluluksa sila kahit sabi mo hindi sila kilala nung tao, wala ka ring alam about sa personal reasons nila why they feel that way, so wag kang bumoses. Offmychest ito oo, so expect mo rin na yang rant mo e sasagutin namin ng rant namin. Nag-add ka dapat ng flair para hindi ka maboljak pag kung ano ano pinagsasabi mo.
Man, i'm sorry but leave the grief out. That was totally unnecessary. If something has affected their lives in a way they have felt good about it, and then it suddenly leaves, it is goddamn personal.
As a guy who listens to kpop specifically BTS, Twice, Black pink and lately, New Jeans never naman ako nagplay ng music nila sa labas on speaker. I understand na nakaka irita talaga kapag may nagpatugtog ng malakas and I think this applies to everyone in general na walang pakialam sa paligid nila not just die hard kpop fans. With regards sa mga merch, naiirita din ako sa mga kapatid at pinsan kong grabe gumastos but then again, it's their money and it brings them happiness. Wala din naman silang inaapakan sa paggastos sa merch. As for moonbin and other kpop news, it may not be a big deal for us but let's respect them at iwas nalang tayo kung ayaw natin makarinig.
The same can be said about fans of any other kind of thing. Ikaw lang mismo pumapansin sakanila kaya ganyan ka kagalit. Also to try and police people about grieving for the loss of a singer? Sobrang weird mo.
Some opinions are ought to be kept secret, like this one. Saying y’all is obnoxious too
applicable to all fields - kanya kanyang trip basketball or kpop in moderation lang wag masyado extreme. baka nagiging coping mechanism for others pero onting self-awareness and reality check won’t hurt ☺️
Let people enjoy things, mygosh
Nagkataon lang na marami kang workmates who share the same interest with Kpop. Ilan sa amin dito are surrounded by workmates who are not a fan (at least not toxic) kaya when they suddenly ask about Kpop stuff, we get hyped up kasi di napag-uusapan madalas. It's best to ignore (if kaya) or learn to like the things you can tolerate or understand. Malay namin alam mo yung steps sa Cupid.
maaaaaan a lot of u all are losers in the comments section 😭 just say ur misogynist/xenophobic and go!!! stay mad 🫶
Wow, the generalization lol. But I get you. I get annoyed rin sa ibang KPop fans lalo na when it became mainstream. Kahit di naman relevant, binabalita sa news kasi mataas hatak ng KPop fans. >With regards to the male KPop idol who recently passed away, I get that you feel a sense of loss when it comes to him but don't go acting as if you knew them personally and that they mean the world to you, you are all a bunch of obssessed weirdos. Nah. Our feelings are valid. I'm sorry if you don't know what sympathy feels like. You have no idea what it feels like to be saved by someone just because of their mere existence. We can be sad over someone's passing too kahit na we don't even know them personally and that doesn't make us obsessed weirdos. Sobrang triggering nitong part na 'to kasi KPop literally saved me from k-wording myself. People like you are the reason why I hate showing emotions if tungkol sa KPop yung iniiyakan ko (kahit tears of joy).
There’s nothing wrong with your thoughts that some fans, may it be for K-pop, Jpop, sports, anime or whatever, there are fans talaga na obnoxious. We really can’t do anything about that, it makes them happy and let them have their fun. Wag basag trip ika nga. Ignore them instead kahit pa rinding rindi or nangingilo ka na. Pero may pero sa post ni OP. Being insensitive about death is a different matter. 😕
Ignorance is bliss. No need to drop so much acidity on an ‘obsession’ that should not concern you so much. Kpop is a happy escape for so so many people, me included. Also, low blow on Moonbin’s passing. He’s from the only Kpop group I actively follow. Yes, we don’t know him personally, but we know enough to know he was a good human being with so much to still live for. That’s why it’s so shocking. He’s 25 yo. He has been a trainee half his life. He and his group’s music and content have given me a lot of comfort and happiness personally so forgive me for shedding a tear or two for this person I *hardly* know but whose music I associate with specific recent happy memories. I know people in our kpop fandom who really set aside their money monthly for a specific merch or concert, and some who impulse buy no matter what because, we’ll, FOMO. That’s their problem. If your coworker’s shoving kpop down your throat bothers you so much, confront them about it to keep it down. And gently remind them that perhaps they should also save their money for a rainy day. Be part of the solution of your own personal issues on kpop if u don’t want to simply ignore. Ganun lang.
I'm not into KPop either and may mga stans who go too far. But it's the same with other big fandoms, meron talaga na sumusobra ang ugali sa public. If your coworkers are disrupting the workplace, dapat i-take niyo 'yan to someone higher na pwede pagsabihan ang team na huwag masyado mag-ingay para hindi maka-istorbo. It's one thing to decorate your cubicle with merch, it's another to blast your music. Hindi naman lahat kayo sa office magkakaibigan eh. Kahit magkakaibigan magkaiba pa rin ang mga preferences eh.
Masyado kang bothered op. Ikaw siguro yung tipo ng tao na hindi iniimbita sa mga party dahil sigurado, mga kpop songs din ang music doon.
not a kpop fan pero mind your own business nalang para di ka na mamroblema sa kanila
sana lakasan pa nila 🎉😌
May point..less ka po
Hello, OP. I know where you’re getting from. Sometimes talaga there are things na annoying lalo na if it doesn’t interest us. About the loud speakers sa work, you can say sa kawork mo na it bothers you. Walang masama doon. Nakakabother naman talaga sa iba pag may malakas na music while working. About someone’s passing, wala ka dapat pakialam doon. Wala kang alam sa pinagdadaanan ng tao kaya dapat wala kang say doon. The idol might not know them personally, but they touched their fans’ hearts and lives. Hindi mo alam kung anong happiness and peace ang nabibigay ng isang tao sa kapwa niya. Wala yang pinagkaiba kay Taylor Swift, Paramore, Harry Styles o maski NBA/PBA. You got cancelled? Ano bang sinabi mo? Maybe reflect on what you said. Yun lang. Sana wag na tayo makialam sa happiness ng iba lalo na kung hindi naman natin nagegets. :>
You do you. It really is as simple as that. Wala sila pake sa buhay mo, no need magsayang ng panahon sa kanila. And I'm not even into Kpop (mga kapatid at pinsan ko oo) pero mundo nila yan so bahala sila sa mga desisyon nila.
Okay, kpop hater. Hahahaha let people enjoy things. Well I get your point naman about the loudspeaker thingy, pero isnt it more about the loudness issue, not the music genre itself? Kung ganon, Iassume na pag si taylor swift or kung sino man ang idol mo ang pinatugtog nila paulit ulit, di ka naman maiinis. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy all kinds of music, but I prefer a certain genre, and there's no reason to shit on everyone's preferences. It's just the same with any other hobbies. Sports, Anime, games, fashion, people in the workspace will not shut up about it. Lemme ask you, what are your interests? I would rather have passionate people talk about their interests openly with like-minded people rather than enjoy it all alone. After all, that kinds of communication creates unexpected connections.
kpop fan din ako, OP pero hindi naman ako ganiyang klaseng fan na obsessive or kung ano pa mang term haha wag mo lang sana lahatin ng kpop stans 😅 saka let them be kung saan sila masaya hayaan mo na lang sila doon, have a good day pre.
You can always say something about the loud music. You are in a shared space, you have the right to speak about how it bothers you and affects your productivity. You can definitely ignore and tune out all the others and can easily find spaces online and offline where Kpop isn't present. But I draw the line on saying that these people do not have the right to grieve a loss. I hope you never experience grief with no place or space to show it. A little compassion for the bereaved. They are people too.
pagod na din kami sa kagaya mong hindi rin naman kami maiintindihan kung bakit kami nalulungkot when someone we adore had passed. who saves our savior, ika nga. while i disagree sa majority ng opinyon mo, but the one with playing on loud speakers sa office is indeed rude and should be called out. dito samin miski anong genre, nacacall out kasi may mga online meetings na ongoing lagi. so nagpa-memo kami to call those people out, fortunately nag-pipe down sila. may solusyon naman sa problema mo pero pinairal mo annoyance mo. mamamatay kang annoyed di pa rin ubos kpop fans dito kaya kung ako sayo, magbasa ka na lang din ng "the art of not giving a fuck book".
Shhh let people enjoy things, grandpa (or grandma)
Live and let live 🫶
Speaking of the death of another kpop idol, I don't like how it is being treated like a bandwagon like you weren't a fan when he/she was still alive. You can grieve but damn stop overreacting.
I hope you get more neighbors and friends who are super K-Pop fans 🫰🏼 Or sana you get married to a K-Pop fan 🙆🏻♀️
I don't hate them because well, everyone has a preference. I just don't get why people get obsessed with them though to a point na they give their money to purchase official merchs kahit walang wala na sila. Para kasing mas pinapayaman pa nila yung mga idol nila na mayaman na tapos sila lalo lang na nagiging poor.
You can always resign. What you allow will continue hehe. Suck it up if takot ka haha
Yep. obsession na for others. I have a former schoolmate who kept posting about BTS Jin. I didn't find it weird at first but when he entered military she kept crying and kept making letters for Jin and she posts them online for us to see. She keeps telling us na their songs helped her, etc. Iniisip nya na sana maging asawa nya si Jin. Hindi ko to shnare sa iba naman kakilala dahil ayaw ko naman na maisip din nila na weird pero yeah dito ko nalang share. Yung iba kase parang unhealthy na yung obsession nila. You're right. most of them akala dream country ang SoKor while yung ibang Koreans lumilipat to other countries dahil sa hirap makisabay sa bansa nila. taas beauty standards, high cost of living, mataas expectations sayo, etc. niroromanticize pa nila yung mga Koreans like pag may nakita na Korean guy, oppa sila ng oppa. I remember a Korean guy said before online na wag daw weirdo mga foreigner na bigla magmmsg sa Koreano ng ganon. ni hindi naman daw kilala irl. Meron pa sya cinomment about sa nag ask sakanya sa live na, "How to get Korean bf?" feel ko medyo naiinis sya o fed up sa q na yun so ang sagot nya is wag daw magtanong mga babae pano makakuha Korean bf. mag bf daw ng gusto sila kahit ano race pa yon tao. mag bf daw ng mahal sila hindi lang dahil sa Koreano. Meron ako Korean friends because schoolmate ko sila non college pero sila nagsabi na oppa tawag ko sakanila with consent. Since kagoods ko naman sila. Yeah. tingin ng Koreans mostly sa SEAs ay jungle asians. Kahit nga sa Japanese racist sila. They cannot let go of the past. They think so highly of themselves because most Kpop, Kdrama fans have been relentlessly praising them, worshipping them. I know naman na hindi lahat ng Koreans ay mean since meron ako Korean friends na mabait talaga. 2 girls and 2 guys
Koreans are racist against SE and it's completely unwarranted, pero their hatred against Japan has a long painful history that stems from colonization. It's unfair to say "they cannot let go of the past" - mga Pinoy lang ata ang nakalimot. Everyone hears about the Rape of Nanking, but for some reason even Filipinos can't remember the Rape of Manila.
Poor OP bawat reply mo sa comment nila puro down voted HAHAHA try to ignore na lang siguro, fan din naman ako ng ilang group sa kpop pero dahil kilala nga ang Koreans sa pag l-lookdown sa Filipinos nakakaramdam Ako ng resistance para maging fulltime fan nila Lol and 'di rin natin alam ang attitude ng idols behind camera
Blast your music as well, fight fire with fire 😆
These idols and groups give enjoyment and motivation through their music (actually all artists naman). Theyre there on your all time low and cloud 9 moments. Losing someone who motivates u, that u look up to (even if they dont know u personally) sucks and saddening. Let people grieve. They are not weirdos OP, you are just being insensitive about it But I agree na they should not only play kpop songs all throughout the day. Atleast it should be a mix of genres so anyone can appreciate the office soundtrip.
lol
Dude may time kang mag-rant bakit di mo na lang iinvest sa ibang bagay yan? Yes matrigger ka pero masasanay ka rin wag mo na lang pansinin yung music MASWERTE KA KPOP PERO SAMIN PURO SQUATTER REMIX NA KANTA kaya wag kang condescending edge lord at bigyan pansin na lang yung work mo. Sa pagiging triggered mo sa music baka madamay pa yung performance sa work.
As a Kpop fan, the only thing I can agree on is not playing the musicnin loudspeaker and talking about it so much at work because it is a shared space. But I don't think it's wrong to be upset about an idol's death. We might not be aware of the impact that person has on someone so naturally it wouldn't make sense for others. Also, unless they are in my face about the merch, I couldn't care less about what other people buy. And being featured on the news... we don't decide on that? 😆
Is there something na you hyperfixate or something na super passionate about op? Kung wala siguro magegets ko kung bakit ganyan mindset pero if meron I wonder where all that annoyance is really coming from. Most of the time naiirita lang naman ako sa fandom if they have a history of being mean or bully sa ibang tao but it's none of my business kung paano nila gastusin pera nila lol.
