manusia terlalu sering menerjemahkan apa yang tampak, hingga mengabaikan yang mungkin terjadi dari hal yang tidak dilihat mata.

ship your mutuals?

I’ll ship them with dreamcatcher cuz they’re my favorite (let me know if you don’t want to be shipped i’ll remove you right away!)

@forever-rain-mp3 & Jiu - I think you would be someone Jiu can depend on. And you’re both so kind, the two of y’all together would be the sweetest.

@in-somnias & Sua - I can imagine y’all filling up your camera rolls with iconic selfies. You’re both chaotic and I think she would laugh at your shitposts

@siyeonsabs & Siyeon - it’s funny bc was trying to avoid going with people’s biases but I can see y’all memeing and being silly together.

@jihyoprk & Handong - I know you have a weak spot for her and I feel you would constantly hype her up. 

@gahyeonn & Yoohyeon - HANDS DOWN WOULD BE THE SOFTEST COUPLE EVER. 10/10 would stan.

@vyvesvi & Dami - I feel like you’re not afraid speak your mind and I think Dami wouldn’t be shaken by that and she’s a great listener.

@1oonar & Gahyeon - backhugs for days!! Gahyeon is super affectionate and just a bucket of sunshine. Plus you’re taller so there’d be a cute height difference

yang terpenting bukanlah selalu menjadi pusat cerita, melainkan jadi titik yang dicari saat orang ingin bercerita.

diam tidak selalu tidak tahu. diam tidak juga berarti tidak peduli. bagiku, diam lebih baik ketimbang terlontar tanpa pertimbangan.

sayangnya, beberapa manusia justru merasa hebat dengan kalimatnya meski tampak jelas kurang menimbang. ini bukan soal apa yang diketahui tapi soal kepantasan.

lalu aku sedang berpikir, haruskah aku menertawakan diri? atau malah menangisi?

@in-somnias Wow I just watched the pretty savage stage cuz your rb and wow. I spent so much time hating on Teddy that I forgot Kiel Tutin also loves to hold bp back with his choreo

It was so stiff and awkward. It felt like it was trying to be both sexy and bad ass but doesn't commit either way. You’re right about the trying hard to be feminine, idk about the lyrics but just listening to the sound it is not particularly feminine aside from the fact that women are singing it. (also found a better feminine choreo for pretty savage in one youtube search so it’s really just Tutin) Choreographing for four isn't easy and I usually like call backs in choreo but Kiel's blackpink work always feels recycled and not in a good way 😔 bp's songs should have choreo that goes really hard but his choreos are so low impact it always feels like there should be more going on? A lot of the moves just look awkward whereas the choreo Sua was doing feel way more natural. (the flow is so nice) The choreo Sua is doing is cool because it’s well made and they’re not trying to sell it. There is a confidence in the creation and in the execution. And it's just like you said it's literally not the girls fault. I know they would really kill a stronger choreo from someone else but since they're successful as is there's not really a reason to change.

I'm not sure what you were seeing but some of my more specific complaints are that there's way too much standing still, which means you lose out on the possibility of footwork, the transitions are usually just them walking which is boring, and there are very little dynamics aside. Another thing is I think it's too centered around posing/facials and I don't think any choreo should ever be. The facials should an added bonus on top of the choreo. Take the Gashina point dance, Sunmi smiles and makes a flower around her face before doing the gun dance. But if all you do is smile no one is gonna know what dance you're trying to do. Unless you do the full body motion, it's not Gashina. Even if you're expressions aren't as amazing as Sunmi but you do the move, people will know it's Gashina. But back to Kiel Tutin there are a number of moves where the moves seem subdued as to put a focus on whatever expression is being shown. Facials can be added to a dance but do not equal dance. Because of this all these things I have felt that blackpink don't always fill the stage :/ 

To your comment about the one sua danced to being looser I’m gonna use a (possibly confusing) metaphor for this. So let’s pretend these choreographies are like public speech assignments. When you give a speech you don’t want your head stuck in your cards so you only write down an outline to refer to. Kiel Tutin’s choreo is like if you read the source material and then organized it into an outline and then presented it. You’re delivery is probably going to be kinda rough and you maybe leave out a point or two of your content. The choreo Sua was doing is like if you read the source material, wrote an outline, wrote out a full essay/speech, practiced speaking it and got your timing down to a consistent range and then went and presented with your original outline in hand. If you think about it Kiel’s speech is looser in content but the one Sua is doing becomes looser in execution because content was so tightly tied down. It’s like a really well tailored suit because it fits you perfectly you’re actually free to move in a natural relaxed manner versus a looser suit that actually ends up limiting your movement. No clue if any of that made sense. 

Anyways I'm not officially trained either tho so this is just my opinion
