TaeKai are THE bffs [Taemin & Kai]

[@malist4rs]

this vid was made for a friend of mine, i hope she cheers up when she sees it Edit: I will not be taking out the colourist scenes. as a south asian i received so many colourist comments from everyone ,even my aunties sometimes (i’m sure other desi and brown kids can relate). it lead me to hate my skin colour, i stopped going outside and i stay indoors now. i am very anaemic and with that, sickly pale too; these comments can effect people and i won’t edit that out just cause you can’t handle that someone you stan can say problematic stuff at times. there aren’t such things as unproblematic idols and the sooner people learn that then the less defending of the idols will happen.

You're royalty for the colorism stance. I absolutely love Taemin but i remember hearing him say he wouldn't play golf because he didn't want to get tanned and it was super disappointing. People can't ever learn from they're mistakes if they aren't aware that they've made one.

The reason I was really excited for SuperM was TaeKai finally in a group together best friends getting to debut together was so cool to me and Baekhyun and the NCT babies really gave us so many interesting interaction with TaeKai they really had a different energy in that group not better just different it's seem like older members decided to be more equals to them but still be great big brothers I think it let them be less awkward. Kai & Mark had me dead like everytime they talk about each other and Taemin and Ten I never really seen Taemin so interested in someone like he is with Ten he loves his artistic side and his dancing like he's some proud big brother. So I'm happy TaeKai got to experience this together

[@Ophiane]

This comment right here The three of them have gotten so much hate over being in SuperM like it takes something away from EXO or SHINee or that somehow doing what they love is just tiring them out. I think it's so great to see them interacting together all of them. I think it's incredibly dynamic and fun to watch them grow and develop friendships and show that you can be from different groups and still be amazing friends and support each other. We need more love for all of the talent that is in the K-pop world right now because they're bringing it I'm from the USA and our music scene is nothing compared to this.

[@LaughingInTiny]

I'm always so disappointed in the hosts of these shows (radio and TV) because instead of actually caring about their guests they instigate more dysfunction in society. Men SHOULD be affectionate with each other. Toxic masculine ideals are just as unhealthy for men as toxic feminine ideals are for women! When you have people on your show with such positive influence on society, and you are the catalyst for that message, you should NOT make fun of them with archaic "jokes" or criticism. You can even see how uncomfortable the girls are in that radio scene because of what the host is doing. Shame on him (and the rest of the hosts that disrespect their guests) for how they behave when they have the means to shape a MUCH more positive environment and community. And good for the guests who stand up for themselves and say the things anyway even though they know there will be a backlash.
