like a year ago around this time I was so entirely convinced that nct would be my last kpop boygroup… if you'd told me that I would be liking like 5+ new groups now I would've passed out

boy group music just wasn't hitting and no new gen debuts were really appealing which made me entirely confident that I would be cursed (positive) to the nct + ggs lifestyle for the rest of forever… and then I got back into ateez which was honestly fine since I'd kept up with them for a few years before but then BOYS PLANET HAPPENED

I tried to resist it fr but I love hui so much and every clip of him I saw on my tl literally squeezed my heart like a stress ball. so being the nosy bitch that I am I couldn't NOT see wtf was going on over there + I was stressed as hell and survival shows have proven to keep me sane in moments of great anxiety so ofc it was a no brainer

and then hui didn't make it but I got attached to SO MANY BOYS T__T why did they all have to be cute and talented. and even though I wasn't that convinced by about half of the jebewon final lineup at first, atm I literally can't even bring myself to imagine not having them in a few years. like they're truly THE perfect group I just needed some time to get over my bitterness. and their chemi is soooooo good seriously star creators kinda popped off with this lineup I don't think it can ever be replicated

and not to mention my favs who didn't make it and now are ALL DEBUTING. I haven't listened to everything everyone has put out but tiot and evnne had such good debuts wtf. they're definitely keeping the interest alive after bp For Me. that's already so many new boys after me being like "I will never look away from nct" for a while year help

speaking of nct though there's also riize now… and I'm gonna be honest I was VERY upset when sungtaro got kicked out like weeks long grieving levels of upset those were my baby neos but looking at all the fucked up shit sm has been doing with nct (which has led me to actually feeling quite distanced from them and their content/music lately… who would've thought) I'm really happy that they're in riize now. not only does the music monumentally slap but also they're all just soooooo endearing it took watching like one (1) video for all of them to win my heart omg. especially anton like that's my BABY <3 and seeing sungtaro take on hyung roles has been very fun too. I had no choice but to become a fan TT I should've known it would happen like this lmfao they're an sm group after all…

right now I can't really recall any new debuts I'm looking forward to except for like yoon jongwoo and kandem which are still boys planet-adjacent.. but I'm not really mad about my descent back into kpop rookie boy group hell. I just hope there's no more not because it wouldn't be fun but because I'm so busy I don't even know if I'll be able to keep up with zb1 by themselves, not to mention 20+ of their little bp friends T__T
