- so could be with my boyfriend aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
- and when I'm done I will do a cunt spin n dip
- im literally procrastinating badly today, and im almost done with my coffee send help and keto snacks
- girl I don't wanna work today im tired, im mentally exhausted, i want a pool, a drink and my man
- This J Cole album MY GAWD
- Midnight shift clockin in
- the gag is Debi Tirar mas fotos makes me cry like a mf baby reason being why I don't listen to the song as much, like I literally skip it when it comes up cus I literally can't deal with my feelings
- AI GENTE OLHA ESSA FACE eu fico passada com a beleza desse homem gente
- Today is the birthday of one of my biggest inspirations in life, my beloved father the legendary Suki Lee but to me he's my papa Jarius That's my family yall
- Jaejoong became sort of Japan's national treasure Junsu is a musical icon in the korean musical world Yunho and Changmin are who they are They will never return as 5.
- and the dream of having them in a reunion as 5 is impossible. Yoochun got involved with a drug addicted chaebol that fucked his entire career as a singer and actor, he got involved with meth and now is scrambling across Asia searching for an ounce of relevancy again
- TVXQ as 5 are the legendary iconic staples of Kpop history TVXQ as 2 are just a regular duo of old korean men doing pop music that is pretty mid This realization hurts
- listening to them singing the old songs when they were 5 is not the same, it's actually mid, like, I do covers in the same level, the emptiness of them singing songs like "Forever Love" or "Begin" is crazy. It's crazy to see who they were and who they are now
- This generation doesn't even know TVXQ and the ones who do be like "oh the duo, they are ok..." and for what is very offensive to hardcore fans like me, when I decide to give them a chance and check their current music the new kpop fans are right... they're ok, I guess
- I'm here thinking as I listen to them as 5 how irrelevant the current TVXQ is. They were in the top of the world. They were supposed to be celebrating 22 years as 5 being as successful as ever but that was taken from us. Now the TVXQ duo, is just there, celebrating 22 years to a very small niche.
- so it was. since the split, as Yunho and Changmin decided to comeback as TVXQ, but it's not the same. The fandom had split. It hurts to talk about that shit 15 years after the official split.
- their last show as 5 was in Shengzheng, China one of the only concerts you don't have any fancams. they were all deleted. reportedly all members were very emotional because they knew it was the end
- all activities were halted as TVXQ except for the tour dates. Their last performance in TV was in Japan as Tohoshinki during the kohaku utagassen in 2009 (I was watching it live and it was so uncomfortable to watch them not wanting to be there)
- Because SM Ent. the same agency the created and managed them, girls generation, shinee, f(x), super junior, exo and others had them fucked up with a 13 year long contract that basically paid nothing to the 5 members So 3 of them decided to sue SM Ent and wanted either a fair contract or out
- they were running 2 tours almost consecutively doing the Mirotic tour in Korea, China and South Asia and The Secret Code tour in Japan (being that the first Korean artists to sold out the Tokyo dome for 2 days) SO WHY DID THEY DISBAND?
- so now in 2008 they had released the record breaking 4th korean album Mirotic after 2 years working only in Japan, which was followed by 4 releases of the album due to sold outs, a lot of awards and they moved towards a 4th album in Japan - the secret code with had the same success
- also the record of being the most photographed artists in the world more than 5 million pictures of them.
- and that led to China, and then south asia. in Brazil though the k-pop fan community were way smaller than before they were big there too, as they were in Peru and Argentina they had the Guinness record with the largest fanclub in the world with more than 500k members registered
- they were forced to learn japanese and learn the japanese pop culture by AVEX and SM under the Japanese name Tohoshinki, they broke records again in Japan showing a new style of boyband and a new way to make pop music, soon they were big there too
- mind u, in that time Japan was pretty closed to south korean music/musicians with rare exceptions (BoA and Yonha) and singing anime OSTs were the only "entry point" per se, however TVXQ or tohoshinki in Japan not only started from the bottom with Guerrilla style promos but creating a whole new style
- when TVXQ disbanded in 2009 they were literally the biggest boyband in Asia, bigger than Super Junior or BigBang and they were the big 3 but TVXQ was the #1 5 members, 5 singers, every single was a new record breaking and also the first south korean boyband to break records in Japan
- i know most of yall don't know TVXQ, but just a quick disclaimer, it's the blueprint for BTS and all the other boybands that made k-pop famous in the western world. so follow me as I rant about this love that I carry for almost 20 years
- I cried 4 times just watching the boyfriend on netflix WELP
