hi welcome so I released a video not too long ago called double standards in kpop
and in this video I share my thoughts about things that male idols can get
away with that typically female idols cannot and a really good example I gave
of this was the RBF idols like V are really praised for their cold looks
whereas and I don't like Jennie is genuinely seen like a bitch for doing
the exact same thing and to my surprise a lot of people were angry with this
comparison because V is actually nice whereas Jennie is actually a b*tch and as
Queen CL said once in 2010 if you ain't know now you know let me show you
something real quick actually I'm gonna stop you right there to remind you to
subscribe to this channel click the bell to be notified and you can also do
little things here and there to help sustain this channel like asking me why
I pronounce the Rosé they like that or sharing my videos with people that you
can hate them with so this is an issue that I've witnessed so much even within
my own comment section and the thing is a lot of the things that I'm gonna
mention in this video might seem very dated and that's the issue a lot of the
reasons that people give me for hating Jennie our reasons very much so in the
past nevertheless I wanted to take a look into these issues because a lot of
you are just acting a fool and you ain't shit without your crew, my god I'm so
sorry the Holy Spirit just took over me so let's get into it let's look into the
reasons that people tend to hate Jennie so much please keep in mind that you're
a hundred percent allowed to not vibe with an idols personality or dislike
them this isn't about convincing you to change your mind it's just clarifying
certain situations and offering my thoughts about them reason number one
that people tend to hate Jennie is because she was rude to a host now this
is one specific example but I was able to find consistently through my research
and this is referring to her appearance on a show called knowing bros and this
is a situation where context is super important much like the majority of my
scandals that people love to just throw the context away and they love to just
be mad at something I get it you know I'm guilty of this in
the past as well of just being mad at Jennie because it was just something to
do but the thing is the entire basis of this show is that you're essentially in
a classroom full of people of different ages you can talk to people as if
they're your peers as if they are the same age as you and that's the whole
show's premise that's what makes the show super interesting so what people
took issue with was when someone asked her what city did she live in in New
Zealand and she responded with do you even know any cities in New Zealand
which by the way was funny as hell but for some reason everyone took issue with
this and started calling her rude when in reality within the context of this
show it's demanded that you speak to people like that because that's the
premise of the show the premise is you know the cultural taboo of speaking to
people of different ages as if they were the same age as you as if it's not
culturally condemned like it's really interesting if you think about it from a
cultural point of view and this is something that everyone on the show does
and I never see this backlash happen to male idols yet I still see people
bringing this up as a logical reason for why they dislike her so another reason
people seem to dislike her and this seems to have been an issue more in
their debut days and this is because people claim that she was bullying Lisa
and you know there are clips of her on V live and it you know it seems like she's
being so mean to Lisa when in reality you know this can be very well just how
friends act with each other and we don't always have to demonize certain
behaviors and I'm always gonna bring this back to boy groups because I
noticed the same exact behavior when boy groups but no one says the same things
about it if we look at BTS in the way they make fun of each other I really
don't see the same backlash but even if Jennie did get genuinely annoyed or even
if an idol shows that they are uncomfortable in a situation it just
tends to backfire and it backfires because they're showing their true human
emotion and for some reason we have this expectation that they just shouldn't
idols are forced to hide their real emotions and we need to pretend like
everything is perfect and that they always get along and the truth of the
matter is they probably get so annoyed with each other quite often because if
you can imagine you're put in home with people that you didn't you know
naturally choose to be your friends and you're literally stuck with them for the
rest of your day in super stressful situations there's always going to be
conflict and I don't think it's fair to demonize human nature and everything
they do is just so highly controlled so I can imagine how frustrating it is for
example I thought it was interesting when we saw that fight in that BTS
documentary or whatever it was between V and Jin and it was a side in Kpop
that you know we really don't get to see that often though I have to say I've
disowned people over petty or shit than that but it was still interesting to see
them fight over something and at the end of the day I totally appreciate the fact
that they showed this fight that being said when BTS does it it's revolutionary
but I can't help but shake the feeling that if black pink tried to do the same
thing they might have gotten into another scandal or their fight might
have rubbed people the wrong way I just think there would be a lot more backlash
had black/pink shown one of their fights compared to BTS showing one of theirs
okay so now we're gonna reiterate my point about her resting bitchface just
in case you didn't watch my first video about it and if you didn't I definitely
recommend you watch it after this one cuz honestly I think YouTube is probably
gonna recommend you someone else's video after this one and I encourage you I
implore you to pick another one of my videos because YouTube might recommend
you a video from someone who doesn't like parrots and you cannot trust people
who hate parrots or worse that person might support denim just putting that
out there Jennie doesn't smile 24/7 and she has a
cold looking face sometimes and this isn't a reflection of who she is
fundamentally it's not fair to have this expectation of people to look a certain
way that makes you feel more comfortable right like her not smiling isn't
affecting her in any way I mean she's just she's just being herself but it
makes other people feel uncomfortable and as I mentioned in my double
standards video this isn't something we demand from male idols
we constantly demand so much from female idols we did
man that they are always happy that they're always smiling that everything
is always perfect on their end yeah in contrast from male idols if they look
annoyed or if they look angry people actually go as far as sexualizing it
and I really noticed this at the Billboard Music Awards the camera went
towards BTS and V looked so annoyed and I just thought to myself if this
were blackpink and that were Jennie it would be a total scandal like ''oh my god
why is Jennie not appreciative of being at the Billboard Music Awards'' ''does
should not take being a celebrity'' ''seriously she's really spoiled and she
must not appreciate the opportunities that have been given to her'' it would
have totally been a scandal but because it's V and as part of his charm it's
totally okay and I don't think that's really fair you know
smile if you want to but you don't live to you know look a certain way that
pleases other people I asked you guys on my community tab why you thought people
still hated Jennie so we're gonna read a few of the top comments a lot of it has
to do with yg which sucks because Jennie deserves nothing but love yg constantly
favors her from solos to outfits to promotions except their foul which is a
few of the main reasons I'm congested which is a few of the main reasons
people still hate her now because it's become a bandwagon to hate on her I feel
so bad for her so yeah again this is kind of like the public perception
because you know I've looked at a lot of black pink outfits and I really do think
for the majority of it it's really you know style is so subjective I don't
think she gets the best outfit you know sometimes she does but really I think
it's just the yg style of having more individual outfits whereas for a lot of
other groups we still see you know more matchy-matchy outfit but yg especially
like if we look at 2NE1 I know people hate when I do this but you know what it's
not gonna stop if we even look at 2NE1 they all had you know very individual
styles because some people can't accept the fact that she's changed like after
her lazy scandal and people hating on her for not being a great performer
people find it hard to move from that mindset for whatever hateful reason in a
more positive mindset to accept the fact that jenny has improved that's true to
that people aren't really ruling to accept change to accept that people
have changed that's something I've noticed as well
just like people holding grudges for so long and you know to be completely fair
I do the same thing there are some idols from years and years ago who have said
things that have really upset me that I still haven't forgiven or I just haven't
really cared enough about to look up whether or not they've changed or
whether or not they've apologized for when I'm reading in the comments a lot
that people are saying that she's just like very unlikable you know I'm gonna
sound like a broken record but I really do think from like a societal point of
view and this isn't something about like we come up with ourselves in our heads
and we're like yeah this is the way I feel but we tend to be afraid of
powerful women and we can kind of even as women like internalize those feelings
and it's not that we want to feel this way it just were kind of like instructed
to feel that way by society anyways that's basically all I had to say thank
you so much for watching become a shout out goes to this lovely individual I
will see you guys next time bye
