Plus if Kris was fucking off to go job hunting why in the world would SME let him go off? even hold the group back for him? are they that lenient and understanding all of a sudden?

They didn't let him go off - he just went off. However, given that he had yet to issue an announcement of his departure it would make little sense for SME to be so ridiculously reactive. It's not them being 'understanding' of Kris's idol crisis (by holding the group back) but rather sensitive to the situation that is threatening a group that cost a lot of money to clothe.

plus they could have just pulled a kibum on him, kept him in the company as a member of exo but instead doing other gigs instead of singing/dancing.You don't seem to understand what you're talking about. Kim Kibum of Super Junior had an impressive falling out with the new CEO of SME (who has little interest in Super Junior compared to SNSD, TVXQ and EXO) hence why he was suddenly put on a bus despite his constant requests to return to Super Junior. Kris doesn't just want to leave EXO

I, however, hate everyone.
except for Xiumin? (because of your icon)

Am I right when I'm getting major douchebag vibes from Chanyeol..?

Re: ugh i hate how long this is. but w/e. this is my last word.

Xiumin (according to the saesang sources) is a nice and put upon individual - he is quiet, reserved and works his hardest to overcome his largest obstacle (the fact he is considered ugly, has the least saesangs, least fans and nearly didn't make it to EXO). So I cannot begrudge him and have decided to use an icon to celebrate that he isn't rolling like an EXO-KLAN member and isn't as conniving as EXO-M members can be. However, if I hear anything (that I am allowed to discuss) then I of course shall gleefully denigrate him. They're idols, not my omnipresent Old Testament God XD I chose the icon today in celebration of the fact that he (and Chen) are actually nice (or at least inoffensive).

Yes, you are completely right - bless your doucheradar! I was told he was foremost bully and is very racist, and homophobic (by the sources~). He takes his racist jokes and homophobic jokes too far and often at the expense of those he is taunting.

Thank you for your reply! I won't treat it as fact, but as something I personally choose to believe in :) Just like I do with everything idol/k-pop related.

It's interesting that Chen and him are considered to be "nice". This makes one question if it could have anything to do with them being placed in M - if because of having that trait or rather developing it under those circumstances.
If all of this should be reality, I hope Xiumin has found at least one genuine friend who he can stick to.

What keeps me wondering, maybe it's a dumb rhetorical question: if fans have come to such conclusions about most (?) EXO members then why do they choose to remain fans? Some of what you're hinting at sounds like total no-gos..?!

(or at least inoffensive)
ugh ugh ugh

In the end, EXO is still a big fat black hole, granted how little they've officially promoted yet and still sticking very much to idol textbook statements.

[ninjacandy]

No worries

Re: ugh i hate how long this is. but w/e. this is my last word.

I'd like to respond to your post, but would prefer to do so in private (instead of drawing it out even more on here). If it's fine with you and if you feel like it, could you also please enable messages being sent to you by registered LJ users? You can change that on your profile settings.
But no pressure and no butthurt feelings if you're not up for it of course.

Re: ugh i hate how long this is. but w/e. this is my last word.

[teiga]

I've tried to reply to your message, but it still tells me I'm not allowed to due to your privacy settings, even though you've contacted me ;;

(you have to go to your profile -> top right "manage profile" -> then scrolling down to contact information (I think that's what it is in English) -> LJ User Messaging -> setting it to registered users :))

Look I'm gonna give u the Kris thing becuz I dont wanna argue about it anymore. I hope its not true. but if it is, well what can I do? and if he does leave, thats sad and if he doesnt then good. I only care about what happens next

Re: ugh i hate how long this is. but w/e. this is my last word.

[ninjacandy]

I literally cannot read this.

[sisterjune]

also re: why SME made no statements. its clear kris's situation was dire/serious and thus was not spoken of or brought more attention to but that doesnt mean it was cause he was trying to cut and run. there's a myriad of other reasons and possibilities. why pick the worst one of the lot? and i have lost count of the times i've heard such and such fangirl has insider info about all the dark shit going on behind the scenes and there's stuff fans "cant say" and shit like that. more than half the time? total BS. yes shit goes down, i know that. but let me put it this way, truth will out. one way or the other. if Kris was legit trying to blow this popstand, we'll find out sooner or later. I'll trip over it when/if that happens. till such time i remain fully skeptical.

[ninjacandy]

i've heard such and such fangirl has insider info about all the dark shit going on behind the scenes and there's stuff fans "cant say" and shit like that. more than half the time? total BS.

Not so much total bullshit as much as it is bullshit that you do not want to believe. Moreover, I can't stress that there is a lot that can't be said that is not known to internationals for the simple fact that those saesangs could be excluded from the company privileges they get.

if Kris was legit trying to blow this popstand, we'll find out sooner or later.

Or not. After all, Donghae, Leeteuk, Shindong, Kang-In and Eunhyuk have never admitted that they grouped together to sue SME.

till such time i remain fully skeptical.

However you will totally believe the managed stage personas that SME have given EXO? Such beautiful scepticism.

I completely understand now why Chinese and Korean saesangs, fans and bilingual fans a like do not want to share anything.

Ah, well, such is life.

[ninjacandy]

Bilingual fans (who are often very wealthy) often have closer access to saesang fans (who are also very wealthy). They tend to hang in similar circles and share wack stuff over their weibo accounts.

People love to front and say they're not a delusional fan but the moment they hear something that contradicts the clorox'd image of idols they deny it instantaneously. However, when video evidence appears (such as Yoochun smacking a young woman) they express disappointment that saesangs and bilingual fans never tell them the truth. Oh, they do tell you some truths but you (fans at large) just ignore it.

"Not many would stan for Chanyeol if they knew the only thing preventing him from joining the Ku Klux Klan was geography."

Does this have to do with Chanyeol making fun of Kai's tan skin or has he done or said even more questionable crappy stuff?

[sisterjune]

i think it was a hyperbolic joke. (since when would the kkk let non americans let alone non white americans join?) also he hasnt done anything worse than joking about kai's skin (it was jokes rather than making fun of him for it) but since kai clearly was irritated over it he hasnt done it since. like its been six plus months already i kinda wish ppl would let it go, its obv kai is over it now and they're good.
