1. 10 things K-Pop fans hate

There are many things to love about K-Pop and our idols in general, but like anything in this world there is good and bad. Black and white, dark side, light side - whatever you wanna call it, there are some aspects of K-Pop fans can't stand and it is time to let the world know!

2. CC subs

We all know that this is probably one of the most biggest let downs ever. You think your favorite idols current releases will all make sense with these instant subs, but lord were you wrong. The translations are so literally translated that you might be better off letting Google translate do the work for you. If they are close to accurate, they still have some funny English lines like in the video above.

3. 'World' Tours

Since when was the world limited to Asia? If your favorite idols are only headed to Japan, why call it a world tour? Sadly, if you live anywhere besides Asia, your group has to be pretty popular to make their way farther overseas.

4. Staying up at odd hours for releases

American fans know that 13-hour difference is a killer. Unless you're an insomniac, the thrill of staying up every single night for your favorite idols' live performances might get old quick. Especially when your next class starts at 8 in the morning.

5. Wrong member photo card

Although it is always a gamble, we order our favorite albums and merchandise in hopes we will get our favorite idol's photo card and more in that package outside our door step! If you're not that picky and lucky enough to absolutely adore every single member of a group, it sucks to receive a photo card of your least favorite idol. Le sigh.

6. Trash Talking

Whether it is your bias or your favorite group, talking bad about your favorite idol(s) is worse than someone talking about your mama! If someone ever says "Ehh, they are OK" or "They are not that hot," they are not your friend or may just have bad taste in idols. What's worse is when someone claims your bias as their own, proclaims how much more they love that idol than you, and trash talks why you're undeserving.

7. Never-ending hiatus

If you thought waiting to open up your Christmas presents was a hassle, try waiting for a K-Pop idol comeback. The struggle is real when an idol drops one of the best releases in K-Pop history and then takes a two-year long nap away from music. Wake up sleeping beauty! We need your musical talent back!

8. Sasaeng fans

These kinds of fans are the crazy that makes regular fans look crazy. Sadly, whatever these people do reflect what possibly all fans will do, but we know our love for our favorite idols is genuine and not...psychotic. Wearing your idols face on your socks is as far as the crazy should get.

9. 'Idols all look alike'

This is as bad as when Koreans on variety shows comments on any black person looking like Will Smith. I get it, K-Pop thrives off of concepts and uniformity, but people need to open their eyes and see that G-Dragon and Jay Park are two COMPLETELY different people. COMPLETELY!

10. Region Blocked Videos

If this post was a voting poll, I'm 110% positive y'all would vote this one as #1 for most hated things! The thumbnail is all over Youtube and the moment you click it you get that whole explanation why you can't bask in more K-Pop brilliance. And no, Youtube, I will NOT accept your fake apology! #FreeRegionBlockedVideos2016

11. 'Who's that girl?'

"Who's that girl, tell me, who's that girl~" ..."He's a boy." The, without a doubt, most common and aggravating moment of all things K-Pop. We can't help it if our bias is more beautiful than any man, or woman, on earth and are blessed to look beautiful as any gender. Don't get mad, next time own it and say "I know (insert favorite idol's name here) is that gorgeous, but they are a (idol's gender here)," snap your fingers and sashay away!
