Anonymous asked: Do you still sub show on youtube?
yes, i still do. but please bare with me as i’ve gotten a looooott slower :p
Okay. First of all, STOP. The fact that this kind of rumour is coming NOT from the Korean side seems RIDICULOUS to me. I think sometimes international fans forget that they are international fans. Meaning, OUTSIDE Korea. Meaning, you don’t get FIRST HAND information. Meaning, THINGS GET DISTORTED AND YOU CANNOT RELY ON THEM.
Not a SINGLE Korean Hottest that I know left the fandom or turned away from Khun after the accident. Quite the opposite, the Khun-stans that I know become even more supportive of him. If Korean fans leave fandom, it’s usually for personal reasons, not because of some random accident. We are all humans, we all make mistakes. And saying something like “they don’t cheer for Khun, how can they call themselves fans”, is way over your jurisdiction as an international Hottest. Because all we do, is sit in front of our computer screens, and wait for the pictures and news that are posted by KOREAN Hottest, who don’t eat (that’s why 2PM feeds them), and don’t sleep, and ruin their health just so they could take a picture, or be with 2PM and support them. Fangirling is serious business. And in my opinion, saying something like “Hottest are too quiet during Khun’s part” is a direct INSULT to Korean Hottest, because they are the ones who have been waiting for him the most.
Next, how can you conclude something just by watching a TV broadcast? Do you know how cheers get into the TV broadcast? There are special microphones right in front of the audience, and the sound engineer edits the sounds before they go online. TV stations could MUTE the fans if they wanted to. And besides, I don’t see where this comes from really. Is it because Hottest scream real hard during Khun’s part in Without You? That comes with the background story, and actually each song has something special, just like Hottest screaming their heads off during Wooyoung’s part in Hands Up. How come no one said that Hottest cheer “only for Wooyoung” on Hands Up then?
The bottom line is that, Korean Hottest support Khun with all their hearts, he is not treated badly, STOP SPREADING RUMOURS about things YOU DON’T KNOW. Unless you are in Korea and you speak Korean, refrain from making bold statements that make other old-timers feel bitter.
Thank you.
P.S. If my opinion is not enough on this, I recommend checking out Wild2Day’s admin post on the same issue:

As the first comeback week ends, I can’t help to have a sad feeling in my chest.
You see, I grew up in a rock n’roll environment. I remember being a tiny human and hear The Rolling Stones tune in my car because my dad loved it. And as I grew up, I went to punk, ska, hard core concerts, you name it. Just because it made me happy.
And you might ask what that has to do with 2pm? Maybe nothing, but it certainly influenced the way I enjoy music. To me it’s not about winning, it’s about having fun and enjoying life. It’s about the joy we had we had when he first listened to Grown, the joy we had when we first watched A.D.T.O.Y. or when we saw them back on shows. Each steps, line or even a look to the camera make us happy and hysterical and then we fangirl. And that’s when we enjoy ourselves.
And that sometimes doesn’t happen with kpop. There is this fierce competition of who’s best and who’s gonna snag the titles. And somehow this is heartbreaking to me.
There is 2pm, this group of boys, a true family, who grew up beyond imagination. To me, the fact they are starting to make their own music is the greatest achievement EVER. Chansung wrote Coming Down, Minjun continues to write and compose his heartfelt songs, Junho is showing this enormous talent in making feel good songs (Go back is certainly my favorite song in the album), Taecyeon writing awesome raps and so on. Even when they are not doing their music, they are there supporting each other and contributing somehow. And there is no jealousy, no ego about it, just these lovely guys doing their thing and helping each other. That brings a smile to my face even though shows and varieties care very little about their growth and decide to focus on bad things and gossip.
And then the awards and competition begin. This week I read someone saying JYP is a moron because he doesn’t hire better producers and that’s why they are out of the big 3. And that phrase is symptomatic of how kpop is. It’s about money, about getting the best producers to make you reach the sky. But to me, this is not music. Music is joy, it’s passion. And I see this on 2pm, winning or losing.
And don’t get me wrong, I’m voting in all polls, watching the MVs constantly, joining sites I don’t even understand. But does it even matter to me? Not much. BUT IT MATTERS TO THEM so I will do it how many times it’s necessary. If that means they are happy, I’m going to do it. They make me happy, I want to make them happy in return. Call it a positive retribution for them making my life brighter.
And remember, hottests. Even if they don’t win stuff, don’t be sad. Be happy they grew up, be happy they showed their true soul with their album. And be happy they got each other’s backs. In the end of the day, only the love they have for each other, for their craft and for their fans matter. So let’s show our love for them in all ways we can ♡
