Let's start off with double standards.
Yeah, that's right. Y'all already know
double standards. Do I even have to
explain about double standards in K-pop?
Like for real. Like for real. Don't calm
your ass down, Dre. No, I won't calm my
ass down. I rather show you my ass down.
What? Guys can body roll all over the
place in the air, on the floor, and even
air hump for freaking bonus points. One
squat from a girl. One squat from a
girl. I'm just talking about one squat
from a girl. Oh, she nasty. She
a really though. A guy can show his
sweaty ass abs and half naked self on
stage and a girl shows a bit of skin
then Oh, she loose.
She really though. The double standards
is real, my friend. The double standards
is real. I feel like if a guy can twerk
a lurker and freaking show his abs and
chesticles and nipples and [ __ ] and like
air hop all over like he's having sex
with some people with some ghosts, a
girl can do whatever she wants. I mean,
obviously she's going to be judged
because this world is a judgmental kind
of world. But look, if he can do that,
she can do that. But I guess that this a
[ __ ] It's never going to die. But
it just has to be known that there is
double standards, not just in K-pop and
everywhere. Even in this freaking world,
even right now, it's a [ __ ] I JRE
is running for president. Imagine that
[ __ ] when your significant other is in
another place across the world.
So, like, can I see our future together?
Hey, close your
eyes. But I can't see anything, babe.
Babe,
babe. Exactly. Hooray for that Tumblr
joke. I literally got that from Tumblr.
See, a normal person would act like, "I
miss him." And then they look across the
room, but a K-pop fan will be like, "I
miss him." And they look across the
ocean to South Korea.

Now, last time I talked about money, but
let's talk about traveling. Now,
traveling is a big issue, especially for
some K-pop fans like myself and some
others, like you know, when a lot of
K-pop groups come to USA, but my my
pets, my my fam, my my my friends in
Europe, they they don't have the
traveling money, you know? They have to
travel a lot. And if they do have the
money, they have to travel all the way
over here. That's like an 11-hour flight
or something like that. That's that's
some bull. Anything for K-pop cuz that
costs a lot, too. Travel costs a lot. I
mean, hotel, food, traveling. I mean,
shoot. I'll still do it though, just to
see my my my my faves. But it always
goes back to the root of all evil. You
know what I'm talking about. You thought
I was going to say money. No, I'm
talking about these damn companies
putting out freaking merchandise like
crazy. All these K-pop comebacks and
albums and [ __ ] You know, we don't got
no money. I don't I don't want to deal
with y'all, man. F Y, F, FU, JP, Big
Hit. Why? All your damn companies, y'all
need to relax. Like, take a chill pill.
You know, smoke something. I don't know
what you do. Drink some saki or soju.
Fro souju's bomb. I had it in New York.
I need to try it when I go to Korea.
Damn. When am I going to Korea? Because
traveling costs money. And the last
thing I want to talk about today is
finding K-pop friends. Now, that could
be a problem itself. It can be a
problem. And it for some, you know, it
it just could be a problem sometimes,
not just online, but real ones, too.
Now, sometimes the hardest thing is
converting your non-Kpop friend into a
K-pop hardcore loving fanatic. That
could be hard, but it's possible. It is
possible. Or to just like, you know, for
them to just like what you're showing
them cuz that that that's that will be
nice, you know? Not to just like
disregard that like this is [ __ ]
You know what I'm saying? No. No. Take a
listen, [ __ ] Take a listen, Becky.
Take a listen, Samantha. Take a listen,
Elizabeth. Take a listen, Jared. Take a
listen, David. Take a listen, you
stupid. Was that too harsh? My bad. I
mean, I'm sorry. Don't cry me a river
like freaking Britney Spears did for
Justin Timberlake. We're just saying we
just pray to the K-pop guys that and we
just hope that our friend or if we do
have a friend or anybody that you want
to get into K-pop will just come back
out of nowhere just running to us all
open arms and they say this is your
fault, but I love it. You blame us, but
just love it though. You know what I'm
saying? Easy, easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Does anyone use that term anymore? No.
Or that phrase. Did I say term? Sorry.
But yes, it is awesome to find people
that you know you can just like, you
know, spaz with about K-pop and your
opas and nunas and, you know, just just
loving K-pop music. It's just awesome to
find people like that. Just the the feel
the comfortable, you know, comfortable
feeling. Now, if y'all have the same
bias, then y'all y'all not going to be
friends. Y'all going to fight. I don't
know. Actually, there's some people that
have the same bias, but they probably
still fight, but they're still friends.
And that's why going to these
conventions, small or big, whether it's
KCON, whe whether it's your local
convention, whether it's somewhere else,
you know, or even an online meeting,
going to those things, just it's it's a
good way of making friends, you know,
you know, because we all relate to one
thing obviously, K-pop. And even if you
do feel socially awkward, just join in.
Just step out of your comfort zone. You
won't regret it. And if you do regret
it, don't blame me. No, I I really think
you won't regret it. You'll find someone
there to at least say have a little
conversation with, you know, just greet
yourself and, you know, just, you know,
talk a little bit. And one of the
reasons why I started doing YouTube are
trying to reach out. I was trying to
reach out to people like because being a
K-pop fan in Miami, Florida until I met
like amazing people of Miami and K-pop
fans in Miami, in Florida and uh Georgia
as well, the South. Um, until before
that, I didn't I was I felt alone. I
felt like I was the only one that
listened to K-pop. I mean, KML was still
into J-Rock and uh anime, which I was
still I was into anime, too, but I
wasn't into J-Rock like she was, though.
I do listen to Baby Metal. I'm glad I
could find awesome people that I can
call uh friends. And, you know, I just
keep on gaining uh new friends. And it's
awesome. I mean, it's awesome to, you
know, to find and I hopefully that you
can find a awesome person that you can
bond over. Yeah, it's awesome. So, shout
out to my K-pop friends, all of y'all.
And yeah. All right, let's see. What's a
good question? Uh, what's a K-pop
problem that you have to deal with that
I already haven't talked about in the
first K-pop problem or in this K-pop
problem? Put in the comments down below.
Maybe I'll talk about in the next one.
You never know. Listen to K-pop. It
feels good. I mean, I've been saying
that for a while now, like a good four
years, 5 years. And to be honest, K-pop
does feel good. Music feels good in
general. It's like a healing method. It
it if it's hard to explain. You just
have to endure it. All right, y'all.
That got a little a little bit deep, a
little bit corny, too. But I I feel like
I'm pretty comfortable with y'all in
talking about that sometimes, even
though I don't talk about my private
life
uh often. But, uh, cool. I'm glad I have
y'all. Um, hopefully you're glad to have
me, but if you're not, eh, it's like,
nah, f Dre. I don't need them. And then
you just start crying because you really
do need me. Stop playing. Stop playing.
You played yourself. Dream, believe, do,
repeat. Keep on dreaming, dreamers. Love
you all, my sexy, beautiful people. And
yeah, it's your boy JRE from JRE KML.
Just random every day. That's me. Mhm.
And see you too next time. All right.
Hey, you better subscribe.
