Everything is fake about K-pop are Korean celebrities. From looks to fanservice to mannerism. People will get over soon.

Atomnis is Indian. I do not understand the vitriol. Not that I would understand any group of people stereotyping another group. But I find self hate most bizarre of all.

They are popular because they are made to be popular. They have huge huge marketing behind them. For Indian pop songs, it's more like single bands playing their way out untill they get bored of it. They don't have producers or company behind them, in that way we are more free to perform as we wish.


K-pop is very very popular but it's not just because they are good. Its because of their marketing agencies. All that shines isn't gold or diamond btw. K-pop idols have very tough life as a trainee and to look perfect they often have to go through plastic surgeries which is very common and diets that would hardly fill the tummy.

The idols are paid salary by the company.

I don't agree with the blanket statement that Desis indeed lacks looks, skin quality, height, shape, aura, charisma.


First of all we have not seen all Desis. And second these are relative terms.. like you can have fair and flawless skin but you can still have dull skin compared to complete white people in America, idk what exactly mean skin quality here. I agree with one fact that Koreans eat lot of fresh fruits and vegetables which can make their skin look healthy but we can't say a skin is healthy based on how white it is and there is another thing called make up you don't know which people use make up on their face.


My mom and her kids including me inherited fair and flawless skin from my grandfather and I don't think anyone having fair and flawless skin or skin of white people is superior to others like Anushka shetty looks more pretty than Tamanna, I really don't get the obsession with fair skin everywhere. Like many pretty people in India are not even that fair but they still looks gorgeous than fair skinned indian heroines. Example: Parvati menon, Anushka shetty, Simran are miles ahead compared to fair skinned Tamannah.


Even Height I believe Indians average height is not that short compared to other countries.


Even charisma I believe it's again relative. I find Indian women very charismatic in general.
