symptoms of nothing

 Idk fans were being really annoying yesterday.  From commenting all over the Korean news channels on YT about taking down vids to a PUBLIC event to spreading all manner of dumb rumors on Twitter.  Tbqh, I just really needed to see EXO there and how they looked.  I can't even explain it.  But I couldn't even go to sleep last night until I finally saw a shot of B there.  He went in and out by himself, contrary to all the nonsense on Twitter.  DO also went by himself.  B is so good at hiding negative emotions, but Chen was clearly breaking down as he left and that made me so fucking sad.  I also saw Hyunseung and Highlight.  Yoseob and Gikwang in particular looked upset.

But yeah fans kept commenting on these videos to be removed or whatever and it's like srsly?  Ifans are so annoying.  The event was PUBLIC, which means everyone coming knew full well that it was public.  And it was just showing the mourners coming in and out, not actually in the main area where his picture is and all that.  Plus, everyone deals in different ways.  Like I just said, I really needed to see EXO.

Saw more of American media outlets being gross af.  I cannot with them and others reducing Jonghyun's struggle and death to Kpop and SM.  It's honestly really offensive.  I saw the Netizen Buzz post on that and was definitely nodding along with all the Knetz comments.  LIke seriously keep your nose out of it when you know nothing.  Apparently one dumb American media outlet actually was playing a BTS vid as they talked about his death?  Like wtf so all Kpop groups are basically interchangeable now or what?  Ugh so fucking annoying.  That's why I don't want it to get attention here

Anyway.  I wonder how SHINee is going to go on or if they can at all.  Tbqh I would not be surprised if they didn't. =/  I read that in his final concerts, there was a prompter where he was supposed to announce his comeback in January and he didn't read it.  That was early December so he obviously had this planned and it's so sad.

RIP Jonghyun...you did well. 🥀

I agree with this so much. Like I hated seeing the funeral clips with clickbait-y titles, like 'So-and-so crying at Jonghyun's funeral.' But idk what people find wrong with the clips that are just like 'so-and-so visiting Jonghyun's funeral' etc. It's a public event and we can't all go attend it so this is the second best way for some to mourn.

As for me, I'm just going to wait until all the discourse dies down and stuff related to his death stops showing up on my feed before I figure out how to deal. I can't even think about it for very long when everyone keeps talking about it.

I'm not able to watch anything related at all. And I hate that when I will watch or listen to anything about him or any of his music, no matter how long it will have been the first thing I'll think of is how much he suffered and how he died. I don't think anything else that has ever happened in the k-pop world has messed me up like this except what happened with UP10TION's Wooshin.

But I'll probably get used to it.
