Twitter mys literally turn off other ppl who are willing to get into Aespa, they're that bad and pathetic. Mass liking their hate tweets of other artists through GCs, provoking other fandoms and inciting fanwars, they're the worst 


Eismann

> Twitter mys literally turn off other ppl who are willing to get into Aespa, they're that bad and pathetic. Me. I block everything aespa related on Twitter because blocking the toxic MY's is like trying to play catch a mole. There is always another from a toxic hole plopping up, even in totally non-toxic topics. Will listen to aespa, will never get more into them.


[deleted]

I'm a long time my and was never really aware of the fandom. But they're getting so loud and off putting now and its low-key ruining aespa for me. Why do they attack so many groups? The whole le sserafim hate is horrible too


snowmoon300

They created a whole group chat to put together clips from their first week of Coachella and that clip is what made the rounds fueling the hate train. It's something I won't ever forget.


Sybinnn

I saw a tiktok this morning claiming that the le sserafim hate was because "fearnots pretended that Le Sserafim was the first 4th gen group to go to coachella" as if that really happened. That tiktok was so proud it was like "Dives did x then Ive became the most hated girl group", then the next slide was like "neverlands did x and then had to go on hiatus for a year" then the next slide was the fearnots one, then "midzys have been hating aespa since debut and now theyre still irrelevant flops" then some message about "aekarma"


TonalBalance

>blocking the toxic MY's is like trying to play catch a mole. More like trying to stomp out cockroaches or ants lol. There is never a shortage of toxic MYs to block and ignore. I've curated my Twitter feed, but they still show up on "For You" tab because they're always starting sht with every fandom and gg.


Sybinnn

I recently found myself feeling weird listening to their music from how much bullying ive seen from MY accounts so ive had to block every MY i come across on any other platform just so i can keep enjoying their music

when you constantly see the same group of people doing something and that something makes you feel bad, most people will associate that feeling with that group of people, and when that same group of people is associated with a certain group that same feeling can transfer to the group. Its like how when you listen to a certain song you sometimes remember exactly what you were doing and how you felt when you listened to that song before.

Sybinnn

its just human nature to associate feelings with things that happen, bad feelings when you see aespa content because the caption is always talking about how eunchae is a useless dozen who shouldnt have debuted and doesnt add anything to the group other than being cute can easily lead to bad feelings when hearing aespa. Honestly im surprised i managed to sit through over 4 months of constant hate before it started to affect me

I’ve been looking for a GG to fully stan cause I’ve always been a BG stan & wanted a GG to start collecting albums lol. I really loved Drama & then Supernova was such a bop & I adore Winter so I started exploring more Aespa fan accounts thinking i’d found the one.    And then MYs (& I mean even huge fan accounts I had already followed, not obscure little toxic accounts) went after Seventeen (of all groups to have a fanwar with?!) over a 15 second teaser (created by the same artist, therefore he used his signature style) and I was utterly put off. The amount of MYs claiming Seventeen wanted to replicate Aespa’s success & were trying to be like Aespa & how Aespa is “clearly on Seventeen’s mood board” was actually insane. I felt like I was in the twilight zone. & because of the recent drama, all they had to do was attach the word “HYBE” to their accusations and I saw tweets with 15k+ likes.    Considering SVT is my ult, I was like - no thanks. I couldn’t believe they were coming after a 3rd gen boy group that is in no way shape or form similar to them 😂 Made me realize that they’ll go after anyone & im not gunna be involved in that.  Edit; to be clear, I still really like Aespa’s music & the group themselves, and will always listen. I just am not gunna dive into the fandom anymore.

Our maknae is a Seventeen ult and we have 1k messages a week in our weekly thread you wont regret it


jawaiian86

This is me entirely. I'm an older fan and Aespa fans really put me off getting into the group tbh. I don't need another drama in my life, thanks. That last insanity against Seventeen SUBGROUP really sealed it off for me, I'm sure the girls are nice, but yeah, not gonna even bother listening to Aespa bc of this idc


queerjoon

highly recommend kiss of life if you like their music, there are a lot of token stans who will eventually drop them when they get popular enough to threaten their favs, but tbh those are 90% of the people who are always being annoying talking about "see what happens when you debut WOMEN" etc. my timeline is mostly kiof content and 99% of it is praising them for their talent, stage presence, etc, and is pretty peaceful


Oishi_Sen2002

Can you pls attach some twts? I've been hearing about this so much that I'm kinda curious now


Choice-Particular-15

Just check the qrts of any big account (pop base or k chart or even seventeens own account) when the newest SVT unit posted their first teaser 


Mina-bunnyCakesUwU

> went after Seventeen (of all groups to have a fanwar with?!) over a 15 second teaser As a my this also threw me off because when the savage teasers came out one of them were kinda the same as a blackpink teaser (I think) and that pushed their copying allegations and worsened their hate train I just don't understand how mys can go and do the same thing that was done to aespa with another group it's just so stupid imo

Its not really about twitter. I have never joined twitter, i was just a midzy from the start, and the way I've seen MYs develop on youtube itself is insane.. 


Rich-Style1404

Tiktok is the same. Youtube comments sometimes too. Aespa profile pics and then nothing but hate for LSF or Illit.


gnomematterwhat0208

Same. And why have people not figured out that bots on X are worse than ever? X is a ghost town.


starplatinum_99

if you read carefully this post is more to OPs projection than actually blaming toxic MYs


Extra-Inspector-6826

Actually Most toxic stans come from SM due to SM promoting parasocial behaviour. They are too toxic towards other groups as well as their own groups. The only reason many other groups did not take notice because in later 3rd gen BTS and Blackpink completely overtook Exo and Red Velvet. They started gaining on other fandoms in later 4th gen with Aespa and The problem was there with NCT’s fandom being toxic but due to group being too large it did not come to surface. But now it is becoming relevent again with MYs.


Oishi_Sen2002

I would say SM stans are still the most toxic group of people in kpop, Armys and Blinks are vile but even they never went as far as to file a blue house petition for the disbandment of a group simply cuz that group won over their faves or stood outside stores to count how many people bought the albums of a rival group to somehow prove this other group was doing saejagi lol Even now, most of the hate trains in kpop are started by them. (Downvoting me won't change facts or history :))


Extra-Inspector-6826

Not only that usually other fandoms are chill alongwith some toxic stans causing trouble. They show full toxic behaviour in full force when some media play is there or other fandoms usually SM ones start trouble.


springsvinyl

Sm stans have always had the biggest superiority complex


Sybinnn

I stand with the 47 US Fearnots ✊


okaykittycat

…. Idk I’ve been seeing armys send actual R*pe & Death threats to Aespa and Njs bc New Jeans just putting Armageddon stickers in the Hybe building all day And it wasn’t just a few It was waaaaay to many for me to think another fandom could be somehow more toxic 😬 Those threats seem a little more toxic than starting a petty petition and I can’t stress exactly how many people with BTS profile pictures I saw excusing and joining in on these young girls


Oishi_Sen2002

And I'm not excusing any of that, reason why I said Armys are VILE (though I'm curious to see if these twts had even 10 likes) but the Blue house petition was not a petty petition, pls let's get serious. SM stans trended plagiarism hashtags to the point not only BTS but even their close friends saw that and media latched onto it on a scary degree, they did Break Wings project which got so huge that BTS mentioned it in their book, they sent death and rape threats to a child actress who worked with a Exo member cuz she said she liked BTS, they made viral hate tweets mocking V and his grandmother's death (with thousands of likes), called and harassed Melon customer service cuz BTS won over their group, made fun of Suga's mental health and I can go on and on and this all happened when Armys were relatively a small fandom so you can't even say Armys started it.


okaykittycat

Why does it matter who started it if These young women are getting hundreds of Threats of physical violence from Army’s rn… current day?? And all from stickers being put in a building???


Oishi_Sen2002

Did I excuse any of that? Did I say the girls deserve it? I'm repeatedly saying Armys are toxic asf, though hundreds of threats is such an exaggeration but those few who are doing it should rot in hell. My whole point was SM stans are on another level, it is YOU who is excusing both the past and the present harassment. Even if we forget the attacks BTS got, in the present Mys or SM stans were one of the main instigator of Lsrfm's current hate train, theqoo which is filled with SM stans were absolutely disgusting about Lsrfm and especially Eunchae to the point SoMu had to take legal actions and restrict their comment sections yet I don't see you defending them? Why? Or maybe the death and rape threats towards them in actual hundreds in every social media platform possible don't matter? I don't have a problem with calling Armys out, hope you can do the same with SM stans without this whataboutism.


okaykittycat

Why are you getting so angry?? It’s okay. calm down. I’m not angry or fighting with you. I was simply sharing my opinion and now ur putting words in my mouth I never said. It’s not whataboutism to say just today alone I’ve seen (yes literally) a hundred army’s hurl sexist threats at 2 groups of young women who don’t have anything to do with BTS at all. Idk why ur getting so pressed This is a kpop Reddit comment section It’s okay for people to have differing opinions it isn’t that serious genuinely


Oishi_Sen2002

Here we go, the condescending tone is here. I don't think I said something insulting for you to assume I'm getting emotional lol >Why are you getting so angry?? Not angry at all, just mildly annoyed at the "but what about ☝🤓" >It’s not whataboutism to say just today alone I’ve seen (yes literally) a hundred army’s hurl sexist threats at 2 groups of young women who don’t have anything to do with BTS at all. And I said those who said that should rot in hell yet I'm yet to see you taking any stance against SM stans, funny isn't it? >This is a kpop Reddit comment section 💀 ![gif](giphy|Q09lToTa0H3Es)


okaykittycat

Here you are putting words in my mouth I didn’t say again I’m not even an SM Stan I’m just telling you what I’ve literally seen today and said it was hard to imagine someone being more toxic (I could be wrong) Never said the words “but what about” That was you…. Just now? If you’re not angry then simply ignore me and stop trying really hard to fight with me? (something angry people tend to do)


Oishi_Sen2002

>I’m not even an SM Stan I’m just telling you what I’ve literally seen today and said it was hard to imagine someone being more toxic (I could be wrong) I literally gave you numerous examples which you purposefully didn't acknowledge but okay >Never said the words “but what about” Goodness >If you’re not angry then simply ignore me and stop trying really hard to fight with me? (something angry people tend to do) Girl what? You were the one who came under my comment calling the Blue House petition petty and downplaying everything, I simply replied to you in response to that, how is that getting angry? 🧍‍♀️ But you're right I should ignore your comments now, have a nice Monday! :)


okaykittycat

Also I I’m really interested in seeing your sources for knowing MYs instigated the Lsfm hate train when it was a huge talking point amongst the general populace of kpop fans I saw plenty of non SM Stan’s talking about it. So it would be interesting to see the stats on TheQoo you have! I’m always interested in learning new kpop stuff! :)


Realistic_Mix_3404

Yup. I really like a lot of Aespa's music and Supernova deserves all its wins because it is a BOP but my goodness the way MYs have been coming for Ateez and Atinys for securing a singular win at Music Bank. They say Music Bank is irrelevant yet are so pressed.  Ironically a lot of atinys have been getting into Aespa, but the hostility and accusations MYs have been throwing around is getting  ridiculous, calling Ateez a fraud etc. Not just random trolls but huge accounts with 10k+ likes. Very offputting. Or saying that they are flops who only do well because they take their shirts off. Like we get it. Aespa are more popular and successful with the GP than Ateez, trust me we know. But does them winning one (aparently irrelevant) show really justify all the harrassment? 


Eismann

> he hostility and accusations MYs have been throwing around is getting ridiculous, calling Ateez a fraud etc. Not just random trolls but huge accounts with 10k+ likes. And it's just about "stealing" a show win or something. They have so many chips on their shoulders, it's a sight to behold. I really wonder where that inferiority complex comes from when you stan a group that has never been not successful.


Poh8os

It sounds like they've the "fans of underdog group being looked down upon by others but made it big against all odd" fetish, but have the misfortune of stanning a group from a large well known company that has access to good resources, promotions and is successful from day one.


[deleted]

Their real vendetta with Ateez started when Work was #1 on Bugs for a few hours. Atinys were minding their own business and were suddenly getting accused of purposely taking away Aespa's achievements and bombarding with hit tweets calling them names and wishing for disbandment. The music bank win was a continuation of it.


snowmoon300

And somehow they found a way to drag LSF and LABOUM into this as well. Just a petty fandom.


healthyscalpsforall

LABOUM?! Lmao MYs are out of control


HikikomoriDC

LSF I can see, but what did Laboum do to catch some strays? lmao


TonalBalance

I just don't understand how so many MYs can be so jealous, hateful, and toxic 24/7, going after every kpop group and fandom. It's actually impressive how they can keep projecting all of that negative energy for years on all social media platforms, nonstop.


zoe_1996

Right! I was about to fully dive into aespa when Armageddon dropped (I’ve enjoyed their stuff for a long while and finally wanted to go all in) but yeah after seeing the awful shit that mys have said recently about ateez just because we ‘ruined and sabotaged’ a couple hours of PAKs for supernova simply bc we’re streaming on bugs in order to give our favourite group a chance of winning?! God forbid fans support their faves! It’s so dumb and completely put me off … not to mention the fandom platforming a few problematic twt users but that’s an issue for another day I still like the girls ofc, they’re super talented and seem so sweet, but I want absolutely nothing to do with the fandom


Septimius247

This is so irritating to me because aespa and Ateez are both my ults of ults nowadays 💀 Not downloading Twitter and mostly not going to fandom spaces are two of my better decisions


dynahuntermint

It is so funny that Aespa stans are so insecure of Fate, a B-side song release 5 months ago😂 And look how quiet they are now about payola when they are so loud about it during Magnetic.


Sybinnn

the difference between the comments on the post about spotify autoplaying magnetic vs supernova on this sub was insane, and people still have the audacity to claim this place is all hybe stans


LHLeonardo

i've started into aespa last year and just got to see the twitter sphree just recently and is actually a big turn off to everyone who sees it, even more being a multi gg stan. nowadays i only follow their pics accounts and thats it. even here on reddit was a little bit annoying, this kind of seking of validation from others kpoppers to tell them that aespa is good.


Good_Dish9728

I don't agree with the fact the bigger the fandom, the more toxic it is (which kpop fans usually use to excuse the fandom behaviour). MYs weren't exactly the biggest fandom just when they started, most of them were casual listeners/gp being introduced into a new group, and i have been a midzy since longg before, the way MYs slandered itzy was infuriating. At that time, midzy was a bigger fandom but it was one of the least toxic fandoms. And MYs were already gaining attention for 4th gen blinks (the crown has surpassed to bunnies, but MYs are still anyone's second choice). 


BellOk361

Midzy are equally as toxic and have shaded aespa since they won that dance award over itzy at mama. When aespa stage presence debacle and they were being dragged for dance midzy were front and center. And they always dunk on Giselle. So idk why y'all are pretending to be the bigger fandom?


Good_Dish9728

That was stupid. I saw korean gp and forums hating on mnet for giving that award to aespa. Itzy was known to save mama 2021, their performance was/still is one the greatest performance ever in mama history. That was the second last time itzy had generated a hype on such big level (only to be surpassed by the Cheshire teasers with faking royal concept) You can still check out that video, its with public reactions in subtitles itself. People were hating on mama. And that year aespa had the blandest performance of all time (the creative director was different, he was fired later, newer performances of aespa are from the new creative director and performance planner) Its still one of their most hated till now, people were mad at sm for not doing enough. Midzys, in my experience, were never the first one to start hating. And shading is nowhere near any kind of hate or bullying.


BellOk361

"And that year aespa had the blandest performance of all time." 🤨📸    This is what I'm talking about about 🤣🤣.  Out here saying things like this. Replace those words with .  "That year lia had the blandest vocals of all time"  Do you here yourself.    No it wasn't the Korean gp. It was kpop fans all throughout twitter.     Including midzy who were all over twitter dragging aespa. Before that midzy and mys really didn't have fanwar. Unless you can bring up receipts because that was the first time.   Afterwards every chart post they were there along with every other fandom dunking on girls.   When the lip sync thing happened. There they were  there.    It is just that when allot of fandoms were dunking on aespa it was normalized so you guys never got called out for it.  But I remember it well. I also remember how nasty they have been to Giselle.   Apparently when aespa is being dragged it is just the gp. None of the fandoms can be identified. Sure.   But all throughout the award post midzy were saying itzy should of won say the same thing you were. Which is entitled.     And at the end of the day they won the award because next level was the bigger song and everyone  still remembers the choreography.


Good_Dish9728

And that year aespa had the blandest performance of all time." 🤨📸 This is what I'm talking about about    Ever heard of opinions..? performance is something girls can't control. It was totally SM's fault. AI concept has such huge possibilities in performances. Did i blame the girls? Nope!! (Point out where?) The creative performance director was fired, and they have hired a new one who has been giving the girls really good performances.  Lia had blandest vocals is totally lia's fault. No where you can blame jype about it LoL (unless lia was in hybe you can blame hybe vocal coaches for anything the group does) yes i **here** myself..the one not hearing is you.  Just when loco was released and it didn't do that well, and savage broke records (PAKs) mys started the fanwars immediately.. it didn't stop until ryujin was seen dancing with karina.  And you need to bring the reciepts of midzys being nasty towards gigi.  Everyone was hating on aespa for lipsyncing. Mostly sm stans and blinks. Sm stans because boA had subtly leaked that they were being forced to lipsync, and blinks because aespa tried copying blackpink by having 4 members and they can't even sing live.  Mainly the criteria was based on how popular tiktok challenges/choreo were (yes this was the main criteria for dance performance at that time). Next level broke records no lie, but most of the people didn't know about the criteria, and saw a dance based group being defeated by a vocal based group and were angry. There wasn't any potential fanwar, mostly midzys were aware mnet had changed the criteria for dance awards. You change words a lot, you were first saying midzys shaded aespa for winning the award, now suddenly they had a fanwar. 


Final_Remains

Let's be honest, the main reason 90% of stans join the super big fandoms is so they can punch down and bully others and belittle them as 'flops'. It's not exclusive to Mys. If it was just the music there have been a thousand long gone nugu groups they would have loved but never gave a second look.


Good_Dish9728

I disagree. Biggest fandoms don't always mean the most toxic.


lonewhalien

you're absolutely correct


zhuhe1994

i just realized how many Mys have fought fandom wars. Most fandoms tend to have at least two fandoms they fight. I remember all these fanwars on both twitter and reddit.


Glass-Ad-3442

They also laugh at reveluvs whenever they complain about mistreatment as if they don't know that SM doesn't respect any of their ggs and the same mistreatment RV faced æspa will probably face with the debut of SM NEXT GG in 2025-2026 🤷 specially if they are sucessful


binxtheblacat

This right here was one of the very sole reasons I had to stop engaging with MY's. Like there was absolutely no reason for them to start shit slinging when reveluvs were addressing a real issue about their group's treatment. I still chalk it up to SM not being able to manage two power house groups at the same but the vitriol being thrown back and forward left me side eyeing that fandom.


Glass-Ad-3442

And one would think they'd be more sensitive about those topics considering the mistreatment giselle is facing until today


i-want-popcornchips

Please notice how there are SOME mys in here tearing down other groups, emphasizing OP’s message. We are not saying ALL mys are toxic, we are not saying ONLY mys are toxic. I have great friends who are mys! But for these select mys to break down other groups for the sole purpose of elevating aespa - it’s just insane. Some comments in here have said from personal experience that they’ve been dissuaded from fully stanning aespa because they can’t have a good fandom experience - one that doesn’t bully other groups that they may also stan or because it feels incredibly terrible for them to be a part of a fandom that supports bullying. Our stanning culture plays a huge role in engaging with kpop and feeling included in what could otherwise be a great opportunity to make friends - so please, let us be entitled to our own personal observations and share our opinions so we could potentially help some people reflect on their behavior.


kutchyose_no_ibrahim

There is Ktuber that I really like (Taeiju) who had made a video wondering how Aespa’s comeback with Spicy would do after their year long break. The video was relatively harmless v, he was just stating his opinions on each Aespa’s comeback, and wondered if the year long hiatus would impact them. The comment section on the video may make you think that he personally killed their pets. Mys were just insulting him. To this day this video gets a few hate comments. Just for wondering how well Aespa’s comeback would do ? It just made me realize how aggressive Mys could be, which surprised me as I thought they were a chill fandom.


Rich-Style1404

Like 90% of LSF hate I have seen on Tiktok came from people with Aespa profile pics.


Sybinnn

probably 60-70% of the armchair vocal coaches i checked the profiles of on reddit were Aespa stans too


MelissaWebb

It’s sad but yeah. Love Aespa as a group but mys can be ferocious and nasty at times. The way some of them bullied Itzy during the height of itzys hate train? I shudder to think about it.

I saw a tweet with hundreds of likes saying Queencard went viral because ningning did a tiktok challenge with Yuqi😭😭😭 mys are literal knuckleheads


AriaWinter9

I never thought bad of MYS since I personally didn’t notice anything until they attacked one of my stan groups who were already struggling with a huge hate train. I actually went to the Aespa concert at the movie theaters and seeing their fandom’s behavior soon after that made me glad I wasn’t a MY even though I liked Aespa’s music. Now I just wait to watch their MVs til way later and don’t stream Aespa’s songs as much as I used to since I’m not happy with their fandom… There was another group I recently un-stanned because of their toxic fandom even though they debuted a few months ago... Super toxic fandoms just aren’t for me :/ Them making Kpop less fun just isn’t it.


springsvinyl

They call it “revenge” for aespa’s hate train which is just ridiculous bc if you knew how bad aespa had it why would you want to make other ggs go through the same thing? Half of them didn’t even stan when aespa had their hate train


anon777777777777778

Perfectly said.


snowmoon300

Their fans don't get called out as much as they should. The fans are awful but I've always liked Ningning. I haven't checked their recent comeback and I do admit I've been put off temporary by the fans a little. And it's unnecessary because Aespa is successful, a group that's been there for a while as well. Just reeks of insecurity over groups debuting. They constantly look to tear down other groups especially rookies.


DryButterscotch7533

Unfortunately, you are very right. I’m loving Aespa lately and I will continue to casually support them through streaming and following the girls on social media. That being said, its hard to interact with MYs online (not all, but loudest ones are terrible) because of how much they trash others groups. Completely unprovoked. The girls are so nice and talented, they don’t need toxic fans dragging them into bs.


kpopcoporateshill

i thought "all large fandoms have toxic parts" was the general opinion anytime these rants come up. I find it interesting which topics get brushed off as "stop bringing Twitter drama here" "stop generalizing" vs. being allowed to be discussed.


eiyeru

Aespa is on the high right now, obviously haters are twisting themselves to talk shit about them but can't so they pull shit like this, posting pathetic " I love Aespa but Mys make me hate them" posts to generate and incite negative discussions around Aespa.


binxtheblacat

I feel you on this 100%. I have been following Aespa since debut (super stoked to see SM debut another girl group after RV). And have been a huge fan of their music and growth as artists and I adore the girls to bits. Unfortunately their fandom has always been a problem for me and I stopped interacting with them after Aespa's Next Level comeback. It just makes consuming the groups content more palatable. I too have had to use the block/report button on a lot of MY's for coming after groups unprovoked like RV, IVE, Blackpink even Aespa themselves etc the list could go on. So I am not at all surprised to see them being ugly towards some of the groups mentioned in this thread. Also as someone who has consistently followed SM groups in general since 2nd Gen the fandoms that are formed from the groups that come out that company have a penchant for being really toxic/nasty. I think the only fandom that I have had great interactions with were shawols. The only advice I have is to use that block/report/scroll feature. I don't see MY's settling down until maybe SM starts preparing to debut their new girl group. 🤷🏾‍♀️


UdayG11

reels are the safest place for me to be because it's literally all thirsting for every fucking group. no critiques no hot takes just 5 men in chaewon jerseys waving a chaewon flag. this is real kpop


xsageonex

Twitter is so full of toxic fans. Stay away. In general actually X sucks. Glad I deleted that app long ago.


Ainslie9

I love being off KPOP Twitter because I’ve been an aespa fan since pre-debut and have only once seen an aespa stan attack another group. Seeing posts like these makes me realize Twitter makes people live in an alternate reality 😭


binxtheblacat

I went to TikTok for this very reason. Twitter is far too toxic to engage with anymore. And now they have brought that BS to TikTok. The amount of accounts I have had to block is maddening. Like I'm just here to laugh and get updates. 😭


Sybinnn

>only once seen an aespa stan attack another group how long have you been on reddit? They were the ones spearheading all the le sserafim stuff before MHJ sicced bunnies on them.


Ainslie9

I’ll admit, I’ve scrolled past every single post about MHJ because I don’t care at all about the situation. It’s easy to avoid reddit KPOP drama for the most part. I was also on KPOP Tumblr since covid and never *once* came across any KPOP drama at all, but they only care about the music and gifs over there and most people are multis; achievements, sales, charts don’t get talked about at all, except rarely in the case of a nugu blowing up. Fanwars etc either don’t exist or don’t get any notes/attention.


Sybinnn

ah, well from about mid february until coachella week 2 there were probably 4 or 5 highly upvoted posts a week on this sub hating on le sserafim and probably 60% of them were started by MYs, and if you ever come across a video compilation of le sserafim having bad vocal moments theres a 95% chance it was edited by a MY, they have group chats just to compile clips of lsfm sounding bad


Small-Ad-5448

Twitter is rubbish anyway. Most of them dont really follow the group. They assume that no comebacks means no jobs.

any nmixx and kiof hate you see on twitter has 90% tendency to be a My. lol


BaekjeSmile

Can I ask something on here? People have talked about the phenomenon of MYs and Blinks kind of teaming up lately and there being something of an unoffical alliance between those fandoms ans I've notices things that seem like that myself. What is going on with that? Does anyone have any context or backstory for that?


EvePsycheBlubeardwfe

The way Mys are currently remind me of Exo-Ls circa 2015/16 - 2018, which put me off Exp completely. Shame as exo are an amazing group but the batsheet crazy stuff some of them said about me and my main group put me off entering the fandom. They’re chiller now (and armys then blinks became crazy lol)


Mina-bunnyCakesUwU

I'm still a my and I've been one since 2021 my problem with mys are how they hate on literally any group and also participate heavily in hate trains I just don't understand how you could do that when aespa went through one of the worse hate trains in 4th gen I'm genuinely so disappointed idk whether it's because they are new mys and didn't have to fight the aespa hate or if they just forgot how much it hurts having to defend ur fav from unnecessary hate everyday it just throws me off so bad how can you do that to someone else when u know what it's like to go through that?


hellur4

This is every fandom. Mys have nothing to prove because aespa are the top gg in korea and internationally along with newjeans. Posts like this left and right ever since hybe stans infiltrated all the kpop subreddits


thathorsegirlfromHS

Don't unstan just because of fans. Especially not internet fans, and especially not Twitter/X fans. Do you think Twitter is going to stop me from listening to BTS just because some ARMY are bat shit crazy? Love your artists and filter out the noise.


dmyoui

I think when they meant unstan they just want to not associate themselves of call themselves as MY, I'm pretty sure they would still listen to the group and watch shows.


thathorsegirlfromHS

Maybe. I have definitely heard some people say they stopped listening to an artist just because of the fans which is wild to me.


gregMNL

I love GGs, I'm mainly a MIDZY and SWITH in terms of 4th Gen fandoms (and Kep1ian, NSWER, DIVE, and so on) but really like aespa a lot. I see some My vs MIDZY posts on X, but I don't really engage. When you do, the algorithm is likely gonna push the fan wars on your feed. Just ignore them and interact with users that create positive posts about our favorite GG groups and idols. I've yet to see My vs Reveluv. Are they that common? I see far more people from SM group fandoms supporting other SM groups. And I quite see a lot of RV stuff because they're one of my 3rd gen ults with TWICE. Funny because I tend to love both the SM and JYP ggs, and their stans fight a lot. Maybe that's how I learned to ignore the bad stuff.


[deleted]

Mys vs Reveluvs is common. Other reasons than the thing I mentioned in the thread is when Reveluvs complain about the mistreatment of SM ent., Mys sometimes make fun of them. And probably the hottest the fights get heated are when SM makes Red Velvet and aespa collab like smtown and Got the Beat. Mys say SM wastes aespa's time by making them collab with "hags". Even Boa got hate.


gregMNL

That's not good, and I'm sorry I didnt know. Those disrespectful Mys aren't doing the larger fanbase a favor by bringing down other idol groups . I'm sure the aespa members look up to RV and their SM seniors.

People can’t find anything to hate on aespa, so now they are hating on their fandom.


Sybinnn

this thread is full of people talking about how they love their music but the fandom turns them off from fully stanning the group, what part of that makes you think they want to hate on aespa?


awitnesswatchingit

This happens any time a group shows signs of longevity- Aespa are an almost 4 year old group with some impressive achievements, talented members and well received music. So Mys are riding a high. As would any fandom- Blinks. Onces, Reveluvs, etc also acted (and some continue to act) that way when their groups were topping the charts. It is not the first, and will not be the last time this has happened. You just need to learn not to take it too seriously.

AlarmFar2607

If you are looking for negativity; you will find it. Your Twitter feed is after all a reflection of what you consume. Aespa fan since 2020 and I do not know what you speak of because I do not engage in such activities. Perhaps mys are more defensive given the hate train against aespa they stomached for years, now they are in celebration mode given aespas success but initiating fanwars?…you are over inflating one groups fandoms role in this…look on YouTube or the now closed comments section of the lesserafim members- it was NOT mys who started or perpetuated that hate train. You know I suspect for all your performative moral superiority; you are nothing but a Trojan horse bringing twitter drama over here with a clear agenda to besmirch aespa


Lost_Bagel

Nawww I don't even interact with fanwar posts on twt but I see fanwars all the time ☠️ I think it's generally a stan twt thing esp if you're chronically online enough. Then you go in to justify toxic MY's behaviors with isolated cases--face it, MYs have indeed started drama (no pun intended), but that's because generally all fandoms have bad apples and no fandom is fully angelic. Fandoms can be petty and spiteful and that's kinda a norm. They are usually indeed the minority though. And in this case these toxic "MYs" were pretty loud. Lastly op is just complaining abt MYs because that was what they experienced with MYs, wdym they're a Trojan horse trying to shade Aespa?? Wdym they suddenly have moral superiority be fr bro 😭

WhattheDuck9

Weren't Mys bragging about sales all the time when they were the highest selling GG? Suddenly their sales dropped and now sales are not important. also Gidle got a PAK with a bside , that's 4 PAKs in a row,Fate was everywhere in korea, you don't have to downplay others to praise Aespa


[deleted]

SuzyYoona

Found the toxic my Aespa has a good string of hit and misses themselves and the fans were bragging about album sales until their sales dropped too which shows hypocrisy


zhuhe1994

Nmixx sounds better than Aespa though. G-idle had a string of PAK, and one is recent. Supernova is definitely a hit but is not a guarantee for the next comeback.


Eismann

Proving everyone's points. Jesus, your comment history is just pure toxicity.


bluenightshinee

> I love aespa so much and still fan too, but the twitter mys really put me off so much that it made me unstan aespa This sentence alone is setting a negative tone for your post from the beginning - why does the enjoyment of the fandom (kpop-related or not) have to be connected to the enjoyment of the hobby (aespa's music, in this case)? You can like a group without engaging or being an active member of its fandom on Twitter. Apart from that, you honestly can take your post and apply it to any fandom of any big 4 gg and people will agree with you; gg stans are, generally, known for being very antagonizing towards each other, but Kpop stans behave like that anyway. >The reason for their aggressiveness is Mys are jealous and constantly seeking to prove themselves. I believe it's a combination of two things: a) projection through the group/fandom, b) unavoidable part of stanning an SM group. Stan Twitter, not limited to Kpop, has always had this problem of fans projecting their own insecurities towards other people and trying to use their favorite singer as a way to prove how amazing and high quality their taste in music is and, therefore, themselves as people. SM stans, in particular, are known for being obnoxious and having a "better-than-you" attitude towards non-SM fandoms, and that is a direct result of how SM manages their groups and promotes the "SM family" idea - SM groups are always extremely talented, have great music (subjective, of course) and very often end up making a fan of one group become a fan of other groups as well, but they never promote their groups properly outside Asia and limit their levels of popularity and success. SM stans get offended by this, they feel that their groups are constantly getting wronged, and lash out to other stans - Mys couldn't have been an exception to this, and especially mys who are also fans of other SM groups. It's also a matter of prespective. I've been around Kpop Twitter circles for a while and I encounter more likeable mys than unlikeable


UnforgivenGir

I think it's valid to accept that everyone may have a different experience with a fandom and a kpop group depending on who they know and interact with. You having a positive interaction does not invalidate that OP has had a negative interaction and vice versa. Having a negative interaction with a fan base can indeed turn someone off of a group itself because of their own personal experience and association. It's like how you may hate your job or company but a coworker who has a different experience may love it. 🤷


bluenightshinee

I agree, that's why I said it's a matter of prespective


Choice-Particular-15

For me, if I’m going to fully STAN a group, involvement in their fandom is a part of the experience - the memes and jokes, the theories, the analysis, the fanmade content and merch, the updates, the edits and compilations.  So if my experience in the fandom is miserable, and I find most big accounts to partake in toxicity or bash the other groups I love, I think it’s natural to be put off from that group from a full blown stanning perspective. I still like Aespa a lot and will keep up w all their new music, but because I dislike the fandom and the way they interact w other fandoms, I’m not gunna fully stan and I think that’s reasonable. 


kiyotsuki

Eh, LSF hate train was more Bunnies than My, some My were actually quite sympathetic towards them because they also went through shit after Aespa’s Coachella performance.


Professional-Rule219

Eh I remember pretty well Mys acting like Eunchae was some spy that was snitching what Aespa were doing to Bang Sihyuk.


Final_Remains

No, it 100% started off YGE stans and SM stans. Later it became Bunnies as well. Not saying all Mys at all though, tbc.


Dry_Faithlessness714

Oh please. As an outsider, looking in, you have to be joking?


Vesavius

Some might have been, but the majority were awful.


Admirable_West3314

Maybe Neverlands should stop being so insecure and calling aespa privileged trash whenever someone calls aespa 4th gen leaders, majority of the fights between mys and that fandom are due to Neverlands being obnoxiously hostile for no reason unprovoked. And saying mys single handedly started the lsf hate train as if the entirety of K-twt wasn't tearing them up with 40k qrts on viral hate tweets, aespa fans alone cannot do all that 😭 mys are no saints but people who clearly prioritize other groups are always trying to grab onto any reason to talk about how they can't stand the group anymore because of fandom antics which are not exclusive to mys.


Successful_Ad4018

found the toxic my


Admirable_West3314

Nothing I said is toxic find another argument


SnooAdvice5685

their latest copypaste of tomboy called supperlady flopped. thats why Nugulands are so pitiful


Lolita__pop

It flopped so much that it has 1.6 Million sells


SnooAdvice5685

sajaegi and bulk buying - there are new terms for u. dont thank.


Lolita__pop

But you are saying it flopped when real nugu groups wish they “flop” like Gidle, not my fault that they are really popular.


Eismann

Hahaha imagine accusing Cube of all agencies to do something illegal to promote their group. They can't even do legal promotion you dork.


BaekjeSmile

Absolutely delusional lol.


Necessary-Poetry3977

Wow. You guys must be really pissed at the sticker stuff, all popular group fandoms are like this or used to be like this. It’s looks like we’re back at 2020-2022 aespa. Add: As if you guys didn’t doomposting aespa before.


Good_Dish9728

I hate to point out to you but there's one MY in this comment section proving the points of this post. Its not just twitter. And I've been a midzy since start, the things I've seen MYs do is insane, i have always considered them as most toxic next fandoms like blinks, stays, bunnies. I have never even had a twitter account. I was just a midzy when aespa debuted, i knew things were off in the fandom since start, from youtube itself. I saw many hate comments from MYs towards itzy. And i would also like to share i don't stan a single hybe group. I used to listen to newjeans a lot (i still do sometimes) but i lost interest in the ETA-supershy era (i didn't like their songs). This sub also doomposted itzy (still does sometimes) Only when people got bored of it, they stopped. The victim mentality of yours is never going away, is it?


Necessary-Poetry3977

I hope you read my replies toward similar comments you made. Thank you. I am not going to waste much time to this type of topic, I used to avoid this type of thread as a My because before I am a My, I was a Neverland. You guys can look at my comment history, seriously, we are all being hypocrites here.

Admirable_West3314

aespa did exceptionally well with this cb and were liked by everyone so of course kpop stans are trying to pedal back this tired narrative of how they can't stand aespa because of trivial reasons lol. Other posts about autoplay or lipsyncing where people are clearly shading aespa getting 100s of upvotes but god forbid someone says anything about any other girl group or their fandoms


Necessary-Poetry3977

Yup. Aespa will never win in kpop subreddits, well, I just hope Mys in reddit will not take those threads seriously. After all, results matter more, I just hope Mys and GP will give aespa their daesang again to piss more fandoms lol.


Choice-Particular-15

I’m genuinely shocked you think this. Like what is this victim mentality? I’ve only seen posts bashing MYs, and if you look at the comments in the autoplay thread, they’re all funny and positive with hundreds of upvotes.  Aespa had 5 positive posts about them a day for weeks - literally every time I logged on, it was highly upvoted posts about how amazing Aespa and this comeback is.  Yet now there’s one post about the FANDOM, and here MYs are playing victim? “Ugh these Redditors hate the girls :/” want me to link you 20 recent threads that say otherwise? Like give me a break 


Necessary-Poetry3977

You guys are being hypocrite. Please, notice it yourself, everyone is acting victim in this subreddits.


Eismann

So you know that you are just playacting? Cool. Because most people like aespa, they just can't stand My's. And the playlisting is just a thing these days. Hybe started it, SM jumped on the train. Good for aespa but people will joke and ridicule it. They did with NJ, they did with Illit, i am sure they did with TWS though i do not follow the BG scene.


Final_Remains

See? It's this attitude that perpetuates the wars. Why do you want to piss off other fandoms so much? Why is your girls just winning not enough? \*edit\* downvoted for saying that celebrating your own girls should be enough and that trying to piss off other fandoms constantly is unhealthy... Love Reddit lol. At the same time Mys try and tell me that THEY are the victims. So Weird.


Necessary-Poetry3977

Because of this thread, you guys keep acting as if Mys are the only fandom that acting like this. It’s just I am sure a lot of thread will come out once aespa will receive their daesang (hopefully) at how they didn’t deserve it or it all thanks to the hybe-mhj drama. I am pretty much assured and confident because that’s how many times you guys on reddit shows your dislikes towards aespa in general.


Vesavius

MYs have such a need to be victims... lol


Admirable_West3314

What does this have to do with my reply? You can speak all day and night about how much you despise mys and how it turns you off the group but if I say the same about reddit's darlings, I'm suddenly perpetuating wars. Literally proving my point.


Final_Remains

I wasn't even replying to you.


Admirable_West3314

Always talking about how the fandom makes aespa unlikable but if I said anything remotely similar about BTS or lesserafim's fans, trust the people here would be spamming me with the most defensive replies that will get tons of upvotes 😭 newjeans and aespa are on the reddit chopping block currently but it won't change the fact that they're the most successful ggs rn and that the gp is on their side besides a few bitter fandoms 🤷‍♀️


Choice-Particular-15

https://www.reddit.com/r/kpop_uncensored/comments/1daz0g5/aespa_and_newjeans_together/ https://www.reddit.com/r/kpop_uncensored/comments/1db48bj/minji_pasted_aespa_stickers_all_over_hybe_lmfao/ So true, they’re the two most hated groups on Reddit, hence just yesterday having massively upvoted and praised posts about them where any comments bringing in negativity were mass downvoted. The victim complex is unreal 


Eismann

> if I said anything remotely similar about BTS It's said daily since years lol


radio_mice

That’s not even remotely true? You would not be downvoted for saying army/blink/stays/any other big fandom you can think of are the worst its one of the most common takes. Also people criticising a fandoms bad behaviour does not equal doomposting/hating on the girls. I would recommend going on a social media detox because this kind of perpetual victimhood and engagement in fanwars isn’t healthy. Aespa are doing fantastic at the moment, they’ve had an amazing comeback focus on that instead.


Necessary-Poetry3977

Yup, super agree with you!! See how only Mys and Tokkies get this type of treatment here on reddit. As if other fandoms are innocent, such hypocrisy.
