okay this is a rant and a warning to everyone who don't like long posts but i'm sorry this issue really pisses me off so i just wanted to notify you guys of the length of this one.
first off, i need to turn on caps lock. i sound calm and this post looks calm at first but in reality, if only you could see my red face and puffy eyes and bitten lip you could tell that i'm one hundred percent mad.
nOW THIS STILL DOESN'T DO JUSTICE BECAUSE EVEN IF I RANT I KNOW THAT IT WON'T CHANGE THE RESULTS BUT STILL I WANT TO MAKE A GODDAMN POINT HERE AND I ALSO WANT PEOPLE OUT THERE TO KNOW THAT EXO DESERVES MORE THAN THIS.
I MAY BE BIASED AND NOT CONSIDER THE ACTUAL EFFORT OF OTHER GROUPS BUT I CAN SAY IF THE VOTINGS SAY THAT EXO WINS, LET EXO WIN FOR PETE'S SAKE. SOME SAID THAT VOTINGS ACTUALLY ONLY TAKE 30% OF THE RESULTS. SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT: LET'S SAY EXO GOT 29%. IN WHAT ASPECTS COULD SIGNAL BE BETTER THAN KOKOBOP IF I HAVE NEVER EVER IN MY LIFE LISTENED TO SIGNAL NOR EVEN HEARD OF THE NAME. HONESTLY, I HAVE A LOT OF KPOP FRIENDS AND FANS OF DIFFERENT GROUPS BUT NONE OF THEM ARE TWICE FANS. THUS, I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE TITLE NOR LISTENED TO IT.
SO ONE ISSUE DOWN, MANY MORE TO GO. NOW, NEXT TOPIC: THE EXO-CBX AWARDS PLUS AWARDS-EXO-OT9-SHOULD-HAVE-GOTTEN. EXO-CBX, AS THE NAME IMPLIES, CONSISTS OF THREE MEMBERS OF THE MAIN GROUP EXO. IT'S NOT COUNTED AS ANOTHER DIVISION LIKE EXO-M AND EXO-K, IT'S JUST A PROMOTION FOR THE THREE MEMBERS AND A LITTLE FOR EXO THEMSELF.
NOW, EXO-CBX ATTENDED THE MAMA RED CARPET AND AWARD SHOW LAST WEDNESDAY. THIS HAPPENED IN JAPAN. I DON'T KNOW THE WHOLE STORY OF THIS ONE BUT FOR SOME REASON, NEITHER EXO NOR BTS WHICH I ADMIT ALSO HAS A LARGE FANDOM GOT A DAESANG. NOW I KNOW THERE'S STILL THE DAESANGS AT THE HONG KONG ONE, BUT SERIOUSLY IS EXO OR BTS NOT THAT POPULAR IN JAPAN OR SOMETHING OR IS IT THE MAIN ISSUE COMING FROM OTHER NETIZENS, WHEN THEY SAID THAT MAMA ACTUALLY STANDS FOR "NO ATTENDANCE, NO AWARD" THING?
IT REALLY PISSES ME OFF TO WATCH EXO-CBX HAVING TO SIT THROUGH A FOUR-HOUR LONG AWARD SHOW AND EXO-LS ALSO HAVING TO WATCH THE SAME SH1T AND JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT EXO ONLY WON TWO AWARDS THERE DESPITE HAVING MANY AND I MEAN MANY NOMINATIONS? I HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE ANGRY AT THIS POINT. THEY'VE WON THE BEST ASIAN STYLE AWARD FOR HOW MANY YEARS NOW YET IT STILL KIND OF FEELS UNSATISFYING FOR ME.
I CAN ACCEPT SEVENTEEN'S WINS BECAUSE I HAVE TO ADMIT THEY DID GOOD THIS YEAR BUT WHAT ABOUT RED VELVET HUH NO RECOGNITION FOR THEM HUH I SEE HOW IT IS MNET YOU WANT A FREAKING ATTENDANCE HUH HOW ABOUT GDRAGON I KNOW HE GOT MILLIONS OF VOTES THEN WHY DID THAT GUY THAT HAD A NAME THAT STARTS WITH Z WIN LIKE SERIOUSLY I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER HIS NAME WHAT THE FLYING FRICK.
NOW I'M HAPPY EXO WON THE DAESANG FOR THE FIFTH TIME IN A ROW FOR FIVE YEARS NOW THEY'VE EARNED IT AFTER THE YEARS OF HARD WORK OF BOTH EXO AND EXO-LS WHO HAVE BEEN FURIOUSLY TYPING EVERYWHERE THEY COULD TO TELL PEOPLE TO VOTE EXO IN MAMA.
THIS TRIGGERED ME ACTUALLY. MILLIONS OF PEOPLE CREATED BILLIONS OF ACCOUNTS JUST TO VOTE FOR THEIR FAVORITE GROUPS. IN ALL HONESTY, I CREATED A LOT TOO JUST TO VOTE EXO AND JUST CLICK ANYONE I CAN RECOGNIZE AFTER THAT. I REALLY DIDN'T CARE AS LONG AS EXO GOT MY VOTES. BUT I DO RECALL VOTING FOR GD AND RED VELVET. AND I ALSO RECALL STARING AT THE RESULTS AFTER I VOTED. I VOTED FROM THE FIRST DAY UP TO THE LAST AND I KNOW I SAW GD WITH THE MOST VOTES AND RED VELVET ALSO. AND OBVIOUSLY EXO HAS MOST VOTES IN BEST MALE GROUP.
I'M SAYING THIS NOT TO BRAG ABOUT IT, BUT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT IT. IF EXO GOT THIRTY THREE MILLION VOTES OR SOMEHTING I'M SORRY THAT'S THE NUMBER I SAW THERE I THINK IT'S PERCENT BUT WHATEVER WHY WOULD YOU MAKE THE VOTING ONLY THIRTY FRICKING PERCENT OF THE ACTUAL MECHANICS TO GET THE AWARD. WHERE DO YOU GET THE REMAINING SEVENTY PERCENT THEN
MY SUSPICIONS GROW LARGER BECAUSE AS WE ALL KNOW EXO NO LONGER IS KIND OF IN A GOOD MOOD WITH MNET. THIS IS ALSO ANOTHER ISSUE. DID YOU GUYS SEE WHY EXO-CBX WAS SO PISSED OFF TOO? THEY LOOKED LIKE THEY WANTED TO PUNCH THE LIVING HELL OUT OF THE SCREEN WHEN THEY SAW SOMETHING. WHAT DID THEY SEE? WELL, MNET COPIED THEIR CONCEPT OF THE WAX SEAL THING IN THE ELYXION TRAILER. DAMMIT MNET.
NOW THIS WASN'T THE FIRST TIME THEY DID THAT. EXO HAD THIS FAIRY KIND OF THING BEFORE IN 2016 AND GUESS WHAT: MNET DID THEIR THING AGAIN AND COPIED EXO WITHOUT YES THAT'S RIGHT WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION. THIS YEAR, THEY PUT IT ON DISPLAY ON SOME TRAILER OF THEIRS AND THE MOMENT THEY SAW IT EXO AND EXO-LS HAVE BEEN LOSING THEIR DAMN MINDS INCLUDING MYSELF. MOST PEOPLE ACTUALLY MAKE FUN OF MNET'S VERSION BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THEM, AT LEAST KYUNGSOO CAN MAKE A PERFECT CIRCLE. THEY'RE REFERRING TO THE PERFECT CIRCLE WAX ON THE ENVELOPE THAT KYUNGSOO DID IN THE ELYXION TRAILER WHILE COMPARING IT TO THE OBVIOUS COPY MNET DID BECAUSE THEIRS WASN'T KIND OF A PERFECT CIRCLE. WELL THEY TRIED HIDING IT I GUESS BUT EXO-LS WILL NEVER BE FOOLED. THIS ISSUE DID HAVE EXO-LS MAKING SM SUE MNET FOR DOING THIS WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION, AND ITS BEEN THE TOPIC OF EXO-LS UNTIL NOW I MEAN WHY NOT THEY DESERVE THE CREDIT YOU KNOW IT WAS THEIR IDEA
