i would understand if you stan talented visuals like Jaejoong or Suzy, but what's the point of stanning visuals who can't sing or barely able to learn the choreography, you will not have love life with them whatsoever? i will not name anyone so this will be considered bashing, but shouldn't these people stan models? since they objectively look better?

Maybe people stan them because they feel like models are harder to relate to? As far as I'm aware, idols go on reality shows, compete on games, and interact more with fans? I'm unsure about models. But I feel like fans would have a closer "relationship" (if you could even call it that lmao) with their idols.

Personality and variety talents are important to people when they consider stanning. Visuals aren't just there for the looks, they're also supposed to be the most likeable ones
It's the idol industry at the end of the day, visuals are just as important as vocals and dancers

Same way people don't stan uber talented idols if they're rude and annoying

Uhhh.... It can be like that ngl :zoomeyes:
As much as stans like to boost about their faves, talent isn't that important in the idol industry. The visuals tend to be the most popular members for most groups.

I've stanned a few visuals I'll admit were lacking in the talent department. Never wanted to date them but I happened to like what they contributed to the group dynamic and their general personalities

Suzy sings better than Sunmi..... if you are not a fan good for you but she isn't talent-less and just a pretty face.

I am not buying or listening to either. :) so that means nothing to me.
Honestly Suzy is one of those idols who I do not get the hype for, but folks like her and that is all that matters.
None of those kids i listed are just pretty faces.
They may all grade differently in say singing, acting, comedy. life and in dancing but they do not lack talent.
i think your talent-less slur is not applicable to any of the kids in kpop.

There are many who are not say Taeyeon, Luna or Wendy.
But all have skills.

Suzy can sing bruh.... she just has amazingly good looking face that overshadow her skills, and it's the main reason why she blew up..... so people always assume she is talent-less.

talent-less visual idols do exist tho even if you hate to admit it or not, it's time to face the reality,... i will not name anyone tho.

I disagree whole heartily on the talent-less issue.

For example I support neither Twice or Bp because they do not have the talent i require, but i would never call them talent-less.

At it most basic level just blending into and leading a group of kids in preform-aces.
let alone memorizing choreo lyrics and all the tricky ins and outs of the kpop live business is a talent/skill.

i think they just like them for their looks..... there is noway anyone will like them just fot their none existence singing skills or below average dancing.... people just love to give excuses, like let's be real here :joshmeh: ... i am good looking myself, i have been scouted by modeling agency but i always refuse.... i would rate myself 8/10.. when i see hot celebrities... i don't care like okey they are hot.... so do they have something awesome to offer? if nope then goodbye.... average or ugly people might be impressed by this shit tho, since it's something they don't have.

That is on you and not them, you are projecting.

They do not have to sing or dance to be liked or to draw fans.
shoot every season of pd 101 proves this folks get drawn to people because of who they are.
do they also happen to be pretty sure.

I expect celebs to be 'pretty' its part of the basic job description.

I also find it highly repulsive that you seem to be saying that because you are 'pretty' people who are in your head less attractive than you are misguided.

everything has its right to exist, even visuals without major talents in kpop, thats how kpop groups work, but i get your point.

Maybe even i stan a visual you would consider talentless and this in turn is "different opinion" :nekolove:

Talented people are a dime a dozen. Now actually pretty people on the other hand...
