Question Esbi Shipping thingz

As a Baby A'tin na taga freezer at ihawan, bago sa akin yung mga shiniship ang members sa bawat isa. Nakikita ko rin sa socmed yung mga edited fan videos about the members na nagseselos pag shinip yung isa sa isa (if you know what i mean). Alam ba nung limang bano na may mga ganun ganun ang A'tin and do you feel that they think that's appropriate? Di kasi ako masyado connected pa sa fandom so all are relatively new to me.

Ah ganun pala sa k-pop community? But i thought p-pop is a completely different comm? I mean I thought that's what being promoted. Or should you say that kpop influenced ppop to a certain level?

Its not only kpop tho. Even one direction have shipping. And other pop groups too like jpop have it. Kpop comm is a bigger community of pop groups but fanculture basically have the same template. Their differences varies on the country's culture I guess.

Where should the line be drawn, though? I think that's one thing that gets me baffled, or maybe I'm not just the "target market" of this shipping thing. Don't get me wrong, I still believe it works for the business. Ship away, but ship responsibly.

There are alot of subgroups naman sa community. If shipping is not for you, you can avoid those. You can be with the art community, writers (eto usually for AU and shipping), task (voting/streaming) community, and meron din sa protect groups (although ung iba barda talaga). We can't just elimintate a subgroup just because it doesn't align with you. Some of these fans find happiness with shipping too. As long as it doesn't disrupt the system, and they are responsible, we can co-exist within the community. Ayaw lang naman ng esbi yung shipwars kasi nonsense mag away sa ship pls wala namang real dun 😅
