random but
do you think people's obsession with Kpop and why that 'genre' of music became so popular is due to korean/asian fetishisation? like I know this is established about the extreme Kpop lovers called 'koreaboo' but im talking like the general more moderate fanbase who aren't considered fetishisers
because no offence bands like bts are good but they really aren't that good (in terms of music) and I get that boy/girl band appeal (like Beatles, 1D, little mix) may play a bit into it but surely it can be more attributed to that they are asian ('exotic' even) which mirrors the trend in asian for porn
one example of this is how lots of men like 'pure' youthful looking asian girls so thats why we see that popularity for porn but then there's that young girl band called blue jeans who I know are all underage and play into that innocent little girl role
idkkk its jus seeing a bunch of white people obsess over Koreans have always been a bit icky to me
Ok so like this is just MY experience and what I'VE seen in person but I don't think k pop groups like bts became popular bc of fetishization. Like yea they're good looking to ppl so more ppl tune in to listen to them but like ppl genuinely like their songs and listen to them. Personally I don't rlly listen to kpop. But I think this like kinda caus......
