why am I only seeing this thread now???
I have so much I want to say about stray kids. I think their whole concept as a group is finding their path/where they belong like that's why that were called "stray" from the first place but ever since gods menu released I'm sensing some dark auras around them.
let's start with woojin, I still this guy is innocent, if he really assaulted people he would have been blacklisted. do you think 10x entertainment would have recruited him if the rumors were right? I think Jyp were preparing to make stray kids bigger, and they realized the group will be more popular without him so they kicked him out. I think he was treated poorly by the company too. I remember watching an old vlive and woojin was trying to get a bit closer to felix to read vlive comments and felix looked at him like he was a creep.
everytime I listen to gods menu I feel sick to the core, the song is simply about blood sacrifices, or idk, them sacrificing themselves for the elite. you can see them cooking rose petals in the kitchen and rose symbolizes a******chrome...
I admit, I fell for a ship in the group and now I realize how fake everything is, and how jyp is the worst when it comes to this strategy, the will look for members with good interactions and make them fake so many moments bc it sells, imagine how it can ruin the actual friendship? they did it with got7 too. the way they treat their boy groups is horrible, they use them and then throw them away when they're done. I won't be surprised if they're selling them to other people aswell.
about them making the music being a lie or not... I don't know actually, I remember that during the survival show jyp really pointed out that the group is unique because they company didnt involve in their business, they gave the "responsibility" to chan... and that they also create their music... idk how true that is.. maybe 3racha take place in the writing and producing but be sure that they're not doing it by themselves, a simple click on "credits" when you listen to their songs on spotify will show you that other producers are involved, besides, they need to practice dancing and recording and filming... I don't think they have that much time to actually prepare the music aswell.
but the whole "chan did everything" is weird to me like either is family is super rich or involved or idk... I think there are secrets we will never know. Also Felix promoting the WHO organizations gave me the creeps bc we all now what happens to all these children they pretend to take care of. I heard seungmin is super rich... felix too... and we didn't even see half of their family members? not that I care but why are they hiding lmao..
I think the "my parents didnt want me to become and idol" in some cases is a lie it could even be the opposite, they might be the ones pushing them to do it idk...
