How can one determine if a K-pop star is truly talented? Why do some people assume that all K-pop stars are equally talented solely based on their fame without any evidence?

Thank you for reading.

Now, every year there are countless K-pop groups that debut. Debuting is the “easy” part of the path, the really complicated thing is staying current over time.

A K-pop group that doesn't receive support, no matter how talented its members are, doesn't last in the industry.

Fame in K-pop may seem like an indicator of talent, but it IS NOT.

There are many idols who enjoy a lot of fame and recognition from fans, but do not deserve it, either because of their actions or because of their lack of values ​​and principles. Knowing how to sing and look handsome does not make you a good person, and for better or worse this is also part of the "talent" of a human being. In the K-pop industry there are countless surprisingly hypocritical idols.

Work in the K-pop industry is a joint effort of idols, producers, choreographers, stylists, composers, public relations team and a lot of other personnel who work behind the scenes. Everything so that a group of young people can have a presentation that lives up to what the public expects.

I know very few idols who are able to compose their own songs and I know of many idols who turn to outside composers and producers to get songs so they can just sing them.

Everything an idol does or doesn't do is criticized by fans. This is why idols should strive to improve their talents and strengthen their weak areas.

I'm going to put it this way:

If after a while these boys and girls do not receive the attention that the record label expects, the group is disbanded by the label's management. How is this measured? MONEY. If there is no audience, there is no income.

The settings for their music videos are "out of this world."

An idol must not only have a pretty and pleasant voice that captivates the public, but the industry and the public demand an almost perfect appearance that few people have naturally.

If you're a K-pop fan, no matter what your favorite group or soloist is, you know the outfits are off the charts.

“Lack of talent is like flatulence, you can try to hide it all you want, but people will realize THAT IT is there. hahaha! Yes, I know it's a grotesque simile, but in this case it applies.

Now, the k-pop genre is one of the most demanding musical genres that exist. And it's not just about the type of music, but the environment in which it is produced (the industry as such and the consumers). With the above I am not implying that making K-pop music is easy, because it is not. From the lyrics to the instrumental they involve hard work.

And that's not the only thing. K-pop fans can be terribly intrusive. They go to the point of criticizing not only if their favorite gained weight or if their voice went out of tune in a live performance. The worst thing is that they spare no effort to make the idol realize what the fans didn't like.

It's not that doing the latter is bad, not at all, it's just that the fact that an idol is a composer and producer gives their songs a plus that songs from external producers do not have. The first are artists, the second are singers, period.

One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever.. We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.

Obviously a person can improve their dancing, rapping or singing skills. That is something that idols do for a long time before debuting and if they wish, they follow arduous training to avoid being the object of cruel criticism.

Also, the k-pop industry is terribly competitive. Every year each entertainment company debuts at least 3 or 4 idol groups.

Why are white women so hard to date?

Stage presence and a pleasant personality are necessary. Idols must also be a certain height above average and a weight below what a normal person would have. Also the faces, whether male or female, must be angelic and attractive with certain parameters that make both men and women look like standard plastic dolls. A kind of Barbie's and Ken's that for a few features seem different.

It's like when someone is a bad person, sooner or later the true colors of a human being come to light through small behaviors. In the end everyone will realize what someone is like, you just have to let time act.
