3 and 21 for the kpop asks~
3. Has a kpop song or group helped you through some difficult times? If so, and if you feel comfortable, share how.
Honestly, SEVENTEEN really helped me get through tough weeks during my second semester of college. At the time, I was taking classes that I was passionate about but the workload required me to stay up later and later, causing me to have less sleep and feel very stressed at certain moments. Additionally, I was in the process of pledging for a professional organization on campus and while that was exciting, I was anxious about impressing people and passing a national test that was required.
SEVENTEEN‘s positive music and overall uplifting, youthful energy really helped inspire me and revitalize me when I was feeling tired, overwhelming, and unsure of myself. I feel like they are relatable and rather down to earth and I enjoy seeing the process behind their work and how far they have come as a group. When I would be working on animations or scripts, I would play SEVENTEEN songs or when I would need to take a break, I would look at music videos and behind the scenes videos that would make me laugh and bring joy. Additionally, getting into SEVENTEEN also helped me form some new friendships with people at a time where I was still figuring things out in college, and I’m very grateful for that!
21. Talk about why you love your bias so much.
Well, my biases kind of shift but I think Vernon of SEVENTEEN remains my ultimate bias. Vernon was the first to catch my attention when I watched the THANKS music video (I got into SEVENTEEN around that time, kinda late haha). I really appreciate Vernon’s talent and distinctive voice (not that others aren’t, I just love the sound)!! One of my favorite parts ever is his part of TRAUMA I love it so much!! He’s really grown as an artist over the years and I can’t wait to see what’s next. I also appreciate how chill he is with other members and fans yet can be a goof a second later. I love his random humor and how he can act in unexpected ways haha. This may sound dumb but we are both Aquarius’ haha so I feel like a relate to him in some way idk how to explain it; I feel like it would be cool to have a down to earth conversation about music. Also, ngl but from what I’ve seen of his relationship with his sister, I find it really sweet of hiw supportive they are of each other. Additionally, I love how he likes to share his music tastes and how they are all over the spectrum. Also, I love that despite his shyness his confidence and charisma seems to have really grown and despite bullying in his past he’s become confident and uses music as a platform to talk about those experiences, I feel that is very admirable. This is the gist as to why and I could write a whole lot more but thought I should keep it short!
EDIT: Also, I got to admit Vernon has such a great smile and laugh!!
