The infantilization of BLACKPINK (Lisa/Jennie)

[@Ana-lo8yx]

Not in the sexualization sense, but I see this a lot with the reaction to XG. They have a really different and unique style with these latest releases and I've seen many hate on them for being 'too much', 'scary' or 'messy'. I think many people want idols to be different and unique, but not too different where they aren't perfect it girls or conventionally pretty.

[@emmalawrence5523]

As a fan of (mostly) girl groups and (a few) boy groups, it always gave me the ick how some kpop stans talk down on female idols when they choose to be sexual or mature of their own accord and then praise male idols for being sexual and even expect them to be revealing when they do not want to (i.e. Mark from NCT getting uncomfortable about showing his abs)

[@1Uni7]

And also, when a female idol shows a mature image, many of their fans call her fake, while I’ve never seen nobody saying a male idol he has a fake body

Being sensual for men and women aren't the same.. Men biologically and psychologically got the upper hand in this regard.. In sexual market, male are the buyers and women are the sellers..

[@emmalawrence5523]

@donttalktome365days I never said it was the same. I agree that women are always at a disadvantage in this. There are clear different expectations for men and women when it comes to sexuality and it's not only in kpop, but in society as a whole, of course. While men like to sexualize women, they also expect them to "stay pure" and criticize the ones that choose to embrace their sexuality. Due to some internalized misogyny, some women also criticize those who choose to present a more mature image. While there is no win for women in this situation, what I also notice and don't agree with is that in kpop, both men and women, and even worse girls and boys, are often sexualized against their will. And of course, I also don't agree with the demonization of women who are comfortable with their sexuality, while men are never criticized for it

Regarding Lisas appearance in Crazy Horse Paris I can shed some light on it: I've had the opportunity to attend show 4, so I can give a first-hand account, I've actually been there, I've actually sat in the audience: While the usual Crazy Horse show contains topless dancers, Lisa always(!) wore lingerie or a swimsuit. At no time you could see anything deemed inappropriate. She had so much fun, she's been bubbly. And especially with "Crisis? What Crisis!" she absolutely captivated the audience with her portraial of conflicting emotions. Speaking of the audience (bc there's so much misinformation floating around): It's been about 60% women, average age maybe late twenties / early thirties.

[@marill_t.v]

The crazy horse.. drama? What do you call it? Scandal? Whatever it is. It makes me so mad that Blinks are heavily spreading misinformation about what is Crazy Horse. Saying that Lisa is at a strip club or something. Some k-pop fans don't know how to do research and just adds fuel to the fire, having other people take their words like it's true without RESEARCH! Lisa is a grown woman, she can do what she wants, respect that.

What gets me about Lisa and Jennies hate train for being called such horrible things is that I saw it in brazilian and spanish communities as well, and they still have these massive hate communities in porteguese and spanish for something that is so normalized around them and they probably also done like?????

[@eloxoxo222]

not sure from where you're from but i'm brazilian. i know brazil's stereotypes but i don't think normalized its the correct word. people have a view that in brazil being sexy or anything related to it its super normal but there are huge conservative communities here. our appeal to foreign countries with artists such as anitta isn't really applied. ofc it depends on the region, brazil has 215 million people, but most hate how brazil is portraited. i do get what you're saying but it does make sense why communities here hate it, brazil is getting more conservative and misogynistic each day. living in latam, i do think that applies to other countries as well.

[@VictoriaNightt]

​@@eloxoxo222 I'm also Brazilian from Bahia. I think I may have worded my thoughts incorrectly but when I say normalised, most of the short type of clothes they were and are shamed for is something we see everyday and the dances even though not liked by a lot is something that has become part of Brazil and latam and is very common to see so I don't know why they are hated THAT MUCH for these reasons. A lot of the kpop stans I met here that hate them are women as well, I do understand that maybe it is internalised misogyny or the point that Natasha made that they are delulu and think that it lowers their chances with their biases, but the point I was trying to make is that even though I can see some minor reasons for some haters my brain can't really understand the big community of just haters in latam+, at least from where I stand.

[@seulgislove]

I think Lisa and jungkook are very similar in the way fans perceived them especially at first. Throughout the real real golden days of kpop which was 2017-2018 when bts were like the biggest thing in the world and other kpop groups like blackpink and twice were also introducing themselves to such a wide audience. I feel like the members that tend to catch people's attentions are Lisa and Jungkook. They're both the maknaes. Maknae=cute clueless baby. K. And now they both broke out of these images in the last 2-3 years. It just pains me seeing how well the public accepted jungkook's transition yet bashed and slutshamed Lisa constantly & constantly for hers. It's so misogynistic because everything about the way the public perceived both was so similar up until now. And it's done by other woman!!!

there's also the argument to pose that kpop has always been westernized: just take a look at the very first k-pop groups and you can draw parallels to american artists that both preceded them and also existed alongside these idols in their visual branding and music, not to mention the fact that kpop music has always incorporated english into their lyrics. while i agree global appeal has become even more important in kpop nowadays, kpop has always been westernized to some extent and this really shouldn't be that shocking to fans.

I would like to give some perspective about The Idol and why I don't blame Jennie at all for being involved in that project. From my own research and to my knowledge, before Sam Levinson and The Weekend took creative control of the project about 80% of the show was already filmed. Jennie actually originally had a larger role and far more lines. I think Jennie wanted to open a branch to do more creative work in film along with her music and The Idol was suppose to be her big break. Then The Weekend and Sam Levinson scraped the whole show and rewrote it to what we know now as The Idol. Yes, it was originally far more in the female perspective. I am honestly quite disappointed about the hate Jennie is getting because people seem to forget about the existance of contracts. We don't know the type of contract Jennie signed. A lot of actors(not from The Idol, just actors in general) spoke out about how promotion of the show is part of the contract. All I can say is The Idol was suppose to look VERY different than it does now. That was the contract Jennie signed, none of the crew knew that the originally script would be totally rewritten. The script Jennie read before signing her contract to be an actor on the show was completely different and we don't know if she was contractually able to speak out about what happened on set or any grievances she may have. She could be faced with a lawsuit. The tragedy that is The Idol was fully the doing of Sam Levinson and The Weekend. All of the criticism should be aimed at them. The actors did all they could with the script they were given. Edit: Btw, love this video and I fully agree with all you said! I think people need to start treating these women like the adults they are.

Let's look at some other idols like Hwasa for example (YOU PROBABLY GET PISSED OFF HERE) - the reason she has never got the same amount of hate is because people see her as less attractive meaning as someone they can easily attach to meaning as someone they can look up to and say "She is not ashamed of herself, then I am not to.". And that's a fact. The most beautiful female idols in the industry are punching bags for haters cause haters look at them and understand they will never be as attractive as they are, so they defend themselves by attacking them. Look at even someone like Joy - she received hate because of her beauty, etc., but the moment she gained a little bit of weight people immediately started defending and praising her. Humans feel better when seeing someone else looks and acts on a lower level.

No, I don’t think that’s the reason or otherwise there would be many more. The reason they get so much hate is the result of how they were promoted by YG. In the smaller picture how jennie was always promoted "above" blackpink. In the bigger picture how blackpink was first promoted leaning on 2NE1's name and later on BTS' name. Therefore they were never able to make a name for themselves and never able to fulfill the expectations people had on them, because they’ve never been able to make a reputation for themselves. Their reputation is what others expect from them, not what they ever showed. That’s why there is a discrepancy between what people expect and what they get and as a result, they are always disappointed, because their expectations didn’t come true and therefore resort to hate.

The sad thing is, for Lisa, when she does a dance project, it’s about the dance first. She just explores any dancing and doesn’t see the dances that unfortunately have certain negative images as that negative image. She doesn’t put the prejudice first. If it’s cool to her, it’s cool, and she gonna do it. If it’s amazingly sexy to her, it’s sexy, and she gonna do it. Sexy/sensuality in dancing is not an embarrassment nor lust to her, it’s art, a self-expression. The only no-no area for sexy/sensuality is when it’s exploitation/non-consensual, and I don’t think that’s what happened in her case. So what’s so bad about it? I don’t care about haters, because that’s what they all do, hating. They’ll always be disappointment. But sad, that some fans switch on her or are still “fans” but deny that part of her.

[@neb.9489]

The Idol frustrates me so much bc it had potential to be good. The concept of the show is pretty good. You have a female popstar who is having mental health issues and is struggling after the death of her mother. Not only that, but she is the victim of revenge p*rn. Her label is losing faith in her and wants to replace her with someone they deem more capable. That person, being her closes friend who is all over the opportunity. If Sam Levinson and The Weekend weren’t all over it, it would’ve been an amazing show. Jennie’s acting performance was decent, but she has the potential to better. It didn’t help that the script was hot garbage and her character was barely there. I really wish she would’ve chosen a better project to make her debut with. Her idea of her character was really cool and a mourn what the show could’ve been had the kept the original premise. I know she wasn’t casted until after Sam took over, but she would’ve been so good in the first rewrite. With the Crazy Horse thing. I feel that a male idol would’ve also got hate for performing in a show like that. If Jungkook was announced to perform at a cabaret in Vegas, all hell would’ve broke loose. I don’t think it was her dancing in revealing outfits that made people pop a vein, but the fact that she was in a burlesque show. Women who do burlesque are basically viewed as fancy strippers, so in their mind, Lisa became a stripper. This is not me defending the slit shaming and the hate and criticism. This is just to shed light on why the reaction was so extreme. I feel that even sole western celebrities would’ve also gotten the side eye for doing it, but it depends on their image. No one would bat an eye if it were Christina Aguilera or Doja Cat who have sexier images, but if it were Ariana Grande, people would lose their shit.

I think it’s bad for Jennie to date because she is not dating me! (jk). I hate people hating on Jennie and Lisa. They are adults so let them do adult things! I did not watch The Idol, but from what I understand (and you mention it as well) it turned into something totally different than what Jennie signed up for. Maybe she should have bowed out, but I don’t fault her for fulfilling her contract for the show. I’ll never watch it, but I don’t hate her for it. As for Lisa, it was my understanding that she didn’t show any ‘naughty’ bits in her performance, but even if she did, it’s her body so she can do what she wants with it. Again, she’s an adult! I must admit I got excited for a second when Natasha said she would whip out a boob, but then I remembered this is KZbin so it would have been blocked anyway. Lol

[@naegabyeonnhae]

Toxic fans play a huge role in hating. It's mainly their own solo fans setting them up for hate. Often talking nonsense and dragging other idols in which makes the hate train worse. Fans of those idols get mad and the fight goes on for months nonstop. They're all obsessed with getting views dragging their own faves and others but when it comes to supporting bp they all disappear. It's sad to see that, these girls do not deserve these fans. Yeah the main root cause of the intense hate for them is their own fans.

[@NnnnnnnnnnnnNnnnnnnn1111]

K-pop fans are so prudish. Obviously if it was like your religion then that make sense (but don’t spread hate those are your views & your religion). However sometimes I just feel like it’s because they have fully into the misogynistic and conservative K-pop culture. A lot of newer K-pop fans are also quite young like I’ve seen a 10-year-old K-pop fan before on the Internet, hating on other groups. So I don’t think they understand this anymore then from the view of the clean innocent idol. and for some reason, K-pop fans also have the tendency to infantilize idols, like their babies, which is weird because most of these fans are younger than said idol, especially when it comes to 3rd-4th gen idol. For example, like if you find a video of a K-pop idol wearing a short dress and she’s pulling it down (which is normal if you’re wearing a short dress, even if you’re not uncomfortable) or wearing shorts and not giving 100 into her performance then they’re gonna be like “ I can’t believe they’re making -idol- reveal so much skin🥺” and then the idol turns out to be 100% OK with it or in fact likes it. Especially on stage because I dance K-pop, it is not easy and long clothes and even if there’s not a lot of stage lights, it’s still quite hot from all the moving. I feel like sometimes fans give the idols the same values they have and pretend like the idol is only comfortable with the things they are comfortable with. But regardless, why is it only OK when men do it like obviously they get hate for it but they don’t get as much not saying they deserve it if they’re adults go for it

[@NnnnnnnnnnnnNnnnnnnn1111]

Also, I would like to add that this can go for sexy concepts, which while there may be a problem, having a concept, doesn’t make that inherent problem. it irritates me, especially when new fans “ I miss old K-pop back when they weren’t trying to be so western and sexual” because I have seen that comment before and I’m like you wouldn’t survive a day in the second generation when I say new I mean, particularly 5th maybe 4th. But either way I feel like K-pop fans treat sexuality as a purely western idea which is not true at all that make sense that sounds weird. BTW The reason I brought this is cause like I was thinking about KIOF who’s like person I don’t know what exactly they are. I think they might be either the CEO or creative Director as well as the group themselves confirmed that they talk about what kind of concepts they want to go with and what they’re comfortable with. Yet fans wants to still have the debate about whether or not it’s against their will personally I feel like K-pop fans only say something is against idols will when it’s either 1 obvious or 2 just not something the fans would do or agree with.

The one thing I can do is criticize but it should be healthy also. I'm sick of kpop community being double standards. But not surprised when SK is a patriarchy county that can't see women empowerment. I remember how SK govt didn't tell YG that BP got invitation from usa's first lady.

Other examples: Your mentioned explicit outfits and choreos, male idols getting called cute when they're clumsy, dramatic or confident while female idols get called pick me's, male idols getting praised for working with underwear brands while female idols getting s shamed, people not caring if there are "dozens" in a boy group as long as they're handsome while picking on female "dozen" idols, same with no one caring when boy groups lip sync while it's the end of the world when a girl group does it, when male idols have low energy they are pitied and must be so tired while female idols are called lazy, when boy group members joke around and bicker with each other they're called funny while female idols get accused of bvllying each other etc...

to be fair they were promoted as girl crush and did sexual dances since boombaya (debut) so it wasn't anything new . i didn't mind it before and not even now but the clothes coupled with that move was off no matter what others say. the clothes in the last tour were off for me. sometimes they looked uncomfortable . before, they wore short shorts and mini skirt and the look gorgeous but in some of the tour oufits were quite questionable. some shorts looks like underwear and i'm not a fan of seeing buttcheeks . for the idol jenny signed up for a different show skript and the weekend showed up after and the director changed. so it was a wrong move for her but it wasn't planned. i think lisa chose to perform at the crazy horse to break that image all toegether and it gave her the freedom she needed for later.' i respect their choices but i don't have to be a fan of it . and don' need to complain i just don't watch

[@Yooniverse35]

Here are my thoughts: So, starting with Lisa, I actually don't have anything to say about the way she dresses since we clearly have different values, like you said and what matters most to be when I consume content from her is her music / stage presence and as it happens I absolutely love her new music, I feel like it showcases Lisa's artistic style so well and just the quality of her newer music is so genuinely good that it makes me wonder how she was ever okay with releasing hot garbage such as money / lalisa (like the only explanation I can come up with is that these two were the least worst picks since teddy can't produce for sh!t). Oh and I almost forgot to mention, she has absolutely never missed in the stage presence and consistency department which is respectable since I'm sure she has her off days too. For jennie, I'll be honest, I don't care about her outfits either but certain choices she's made has really put me off from her. Like I said, as a fan what matters most to me is the quality of music and performances, which had considerably declined ever since born pink. And I know blinks like to say oh they were underprepared and they improved later on but as a viewer and someone who got into bp in 2017 solely because of the quality of their performances, I was repeatedly dissatisfied. Besides, aren't you supposed to improve based on your last best performance rather than your last worst one? Or is that just me? The only thing jennie was consistent in was her disinterest in the stage and although I cannot confirm that that was actually what was happening, that's the impression I got as a viewer and as a fan. And yes back then I loved watching fancams from every concert so I'm not saying this based on 2 or 3 performances. Then, ofc the cherry on top was the idol. Like, the culmination of all of this plus her hanging out with alexander wang even after his controversy made me lose all of my respect for her as an artist and as a person. I never hated on her (literally why would you waste energy on someone you don't even like) but yeah it made me unstan bp after years of them being my female ults.

There is another issue with this infantilisation is undoubtably the double standard. Because sooooo many people that (correctly) defend these women doing this because they are adults but then also turn around and try and claim in cases of racism and sexism that these idols don't know any better. Like if they are adults (particularly 25+ idols) they should also not be treated like children when they do something problematic (like Jennie in The Idol) do I think people over do it with this kind of criticism, yes they do, but the double standard of when and when not to treat idols like adults actually frustrates me.

I don't think most people are infantalizing the BP girls but are rather pointing out how they are a girlgroup who's music was literally used in children's movies and a considerable part of their fanbase are young girls! Changing the industry? No, they are rather spreading the American idea of having a child-friendly fanbase whilst actively being bad rolemodels for the children in their fanbase. Whist plenty of K-POP groups have children in the fanbase, they are often an obvious minority, but not with BLACKPINK. One of their Amsterdam concerts did not get coverage by the regular news channel but it did from the children's newschannel ZAPP. I am getting rather tired of you older Blinks pretending like there isn't a huge portion of tweens in the fandom and that the girls are being extremely inappropriate when you take them into consideration. That is exactly why other girl groups don't get the same flock as most have way less children in their fanbase and are targeting older teens/young adults. Stop twisting the facts. Where are MAMAMOO's songs being used in Dreamworks movies? Where are the (G)I-DLE songs? They're not there, as they don't target children with their music. We have every right to call someone out when their music is being marketed towards children and then they do stuff like The Idol and Crazy Horse. You cannot have it both ways. As someone trying to enter the children's media, I find it apalling and it's amongst the reasons why I left the Blink fandom as I remember seeing Lisa's 'Swalla' dance and being like, 'But there are so many kids in the fandom. What kind of Miley Cyrus early 2010s behavior is this?!' (no offense to Miley, Disney stars have it real bad which is why most of them act out after they get 'released', but BP was already doing that stuff whilst STILL promoting their music with children's movies. And if they were against YG signing their music off to children's movies then either they should have taken a stance that they weren't okay with YG doing that or they should have been graceful and not do these things for the sake of those kids. Even after their contract expired, they didn't take a stance on their music getting promoted to children so they deserve the blame as much as YG)

I just think blandpink is the lamest/most hyped/most over rated G G of my lifetime, I don't think they are that great, but people will lock onto anything, Why are other G G's trying to be on the same lame level they need to be like a winner, NEW JEANS Rose up above that lameness/hype/blandness and became " BILLBOARD MAGAZINE's GROUP OF THE YEAR " with music/dance, even Billboard thought that Lisa's performance at the VMA's was Awful - If BILLBOARD calls it awful, AND THEY KNOW MUSIC, its has to be awful

Toxic lillie 🤡. They are both equally amazing and both deserve praise they are 2 beautiful and talented girls who deserve love all around.

we like kpop not western artist and personalities so of course people complain kiss of life wear revealing clothes are sexy unfiltered and talk about boys but everyone loves them cuz theyre still kpop xg blackswan lisa isnt kpop theres no kpop production flair no korean etc. same with katseye we're kpop fans its fine if u like those artist but me as a kpop fan doesent cuz i like kpop and korean culture more than western culture kiof are a perfect mix of both without doing too much if we wanted western music we would follow them not kpop some fans just listen to kpop xg is a perfect example of doing it completely wrong when they debuted the first 3 releases or so up to left right shppting star they were mixing it perfectly then for some reason they went down this weird western creepy gaga path where they destroyed any image thats attractive destroyed the music we enjoyed and got weird with their mvs and stopped releasing content as well

[@RavarsenBlogspot]

It’s not what they wear, it is the weird aggressive facial expressions that put people off. I’ve seen girl with less dress performing while being adored because of performing them with class and grace.

[@monoceros.9310]

Then don’t watch them? They’re performing to their own songs and have to be extra aggressive due to their image? How about male idols expressions? They look ridiculous sometimes as well cough taehyung cough nct cough stray kids cough jyp cough big bang

[@ro-zeea.8734]

It's a performance. If your facial expression doesn't match your body movement it just doesn't match or go well. Is like me saying to you I don't like that "sad/somber scene because everyone is smiling." Men do it all the time on stage bumping and grinding. It's a double standard.

[@ro-zeea.8734]

​@@monoceros.9310😅 I see what you did there...I would also add EXO to that list oh and Jay Park. Although Jay is just a bad boy and us girls know it. 😂

[@MCFCJake]

​​@@monoceros.9310these people act like they have been held at gunpoint to watch them😂😂😂 Like they are justifying sl#tshaming cuz of facial expressions they don't like..... such weirdos

[@RavarsenBlogspot]

@@monoceros.9310 the point you’re missing out is nobody paying to watch Aespa to grind like lil nasx nor want bts to twerk it like cardi b. There is a certain image and expectation of class and grace that is expected from K-pop that many fans view is as the only differentiation stronghold left against “distasteful “or “unsophisticated” presentation of culture in current pop culture stars in the west. K-pop is where people at the least expect men to be masculine and female to be beautifully feminine. That subconscious and often vocal desire often leads to the objections.

[@JustGotALife]

Even i don't like them appealing to western audiences because they're slowly eroding what constitutes something as kpop.

[@Analou13]

@@JustGotALifetbh every group is doing it kpop has alot of english alot more westernized (not saying i have a problem with it)

[@JustGotALife]

@@Analou13 but they don't paint themselves as global group or non kpop group while doing all the things kpop. Unlike katseye. Also, those who sing in English still maintain and respect Korean culture because they deem themselves as kpop gorup while katseye tries stir away from all of that whilst ripping away the benefits

[@DuckCult]

Then ask K-pop companies to stop hiring American and European songwriters , producers , choreographers. K-pop has never been "Korean ," since its inception it has always been based on American pop and J-pop.

This is a yap fest , I can't 😂. Black Pink is a great group though. Loved them since Boom Bya
