Got7 Thoughts
Been thinking about the news a lot and like many Ahgases, I’m torn between too many feelings to even express in words. Selfishly, the most prominent emotion is something akin to sadness. Don’t get me wrong, I am extremely happy for all seven of the boys and excited to see where they go from here. But during lock down and the craziness that was 2020, they were one constant in my life. They were there to lift me up when I felt like there was nowhere to turn. I had a moment yesterday when I was scrolling through my Instagram explore page and 80% of the posts were Got7. It legitimately concerned me as I asked myself, “what do I do now?”
I’m still waiting to hear from the boys directly as to what their plans are, but I have no doubt in my mind that we will continue to see amazing things from all of them and hopefully as seven again in the future. There was so much potential left untapped and I hope we get to see it all now.
As someone who works in production in the US, I can understand when there are shortcomings and when things don’t go according to plan due to time, money, or a million other factors that you can’t control, so I have a hard time blaming JYP or Division 2 entirely. I sometimes catch myself thinking about what really goes on behind closed doors in the Kpop industry. A notoriously fast-paced industry, it makes groups just to chew them up and spit them out once they’re no longer relevant. Knowing heartache is a constant part of being a fan of the industry. I look back at my history of being a fan of many different groups throughout the years and I notice there has always been a time when I cried over people I’ve never met. It’s strange, but the smiles it brings me outnumber the tears by far.
Weren’t we lucky to have witnessed them shine so bright? When they were there, wasn’t it beautiful? I’m thankful for all the laughs and tears we were able to share together and I hope there are many more to come. Even though the world is in such an uncertain state, this is another uncertainty, but I know when they do come back, it will be amazing.
