[theqoo] BLACKPINK'S LISA TALKING ABOUT HOW DATING IS PROHIBITED IN K-POP CULTURE


“We can't really date. If you’re seeing someone and you get caught by paparazzi, your popularity drops. When I was younger, I had a few relationships, but we had to hide when we’re dating. I didn’t want my dating to be the thing that hurts Blackpink’s popularity.”

1. It’s f*cking hilarious how people say, "Stop peddling pseudo-romance and compete based on What exactly do you want them to do?ㅋㅋ

2. If you have the talent to back it up, you won't lose fans even if you date

3. I really hate it when idols say stuff like that once they get a bit famousㅋㅋㅋㅋ Would they have made that kind of money with that level of talent if the culture wasn't what it is? If she thinks she lost fans because of dating, the truth is her talent was only at that level to begin with. Dating is just the final outcome; in most cases, there were already subtle changes in attitude, like acting indifferent or treating fans like "fish already in the net", that fans watching closely would have picked up on... ㅎ

4. Isn't that the case everywhere? It's just that international fans aren't very familiar with it and don't really get the vibe

5. But Lisa hardly has a domestic fanbase anyway, so I don't think people really cared all that much even when she was openly dating that French guy, you know? ㅋㅋㅋ

6. It's not really just K-pop culture, it's more of an Asian thing. Probably because fandom culture is so developed there. But hey, if idols are making insane amounts of money thanks to the fans, they really ought to do what the fans want

7. It's way more severe in Japan. They will have you shave your head and apologize at the same time

8. It’s bizarre that they’re getting even more hate than the member involved in the social scandal

9. She said it pretty factually

10. But then why do you think idols are called "idols"?ㅋㅋ
