What group got you through hard times?

The group that got me through a difficult time recently was Ateez.

2020 was a rough year for me. The start of the pandemic was stressful. Many businesses closed down, including my job, so I had to receive government assistance to pay bills. Within the first few months of the pandemic, I ended up losing my mother to Covid 😔. The financial stress and the passing of my mother were almost too much for me to handle. During the lockdown, I got back into K-pop, and Ateez was one of the groups that caught my attention. I watched a lot of their past and present content, they gave off a really sweet chaotic vibe that I really love.

Whenever I watched a Vlive, I could tell they were being their true self around each other and that they cared for one another, which made me feel safe and comfortable. I don't know how to put it into words. Honestly, between listening to their music and watching content they post, it gave me a peace of happiness that I lost after my momma passed. I am forever grateful for the existence of Ateez, as they quite literally saved my life ❤❤. I hope one day I am able to thank them ❤❤.

That was my story, what about? What was the group that helped you during a difficult time?

Mine is a unpopular opinion..but it was BIGBANG and WINNER...I became a KPOP fan in 2009 when i saw Wedding Dress by Taeyang.From there i got to know Bigbang, YG, SM and the whole 2nd generation groups..in 2014 I almost left KPOP due to No comeback from Bigbang and overload of school work and thats when WINNER debuted..i was in a bad relationship with my dad at that point and will be really down, but listening to WINNER made me smile day in and day out.. Years forward..im now 23 in university and a proud VIP and INNERCIRCLE. My favourite groups might not be popular but im always happy to see them top charts and spread a smile with their music and activities ..Like Seungyoon said :

“The essence of our music is not to beat others but to heal. I really hope WINNER’s music can be energizing to people, make them feel happy and hopeful and that they’re really winners themselves." Winner kept their word!


BIGBANG are my forever Top group..they were with me when i was a rookie stan, they were with me when i was in my troublesome teenage years and now they are still with me as i enter adulting..We both are in a very different stage of life compared to when i discovered them but growing up with BIGBANG is something i will never ever regret!

SHINee was my antidepressant medication. Loved their sound. Loved their look. Especially enjoyed them on variety shows including Minho competing in athletics. They were a joyful getaway.


There was a strange political tide rolling through. A backwards hostility began taking over my town. Small businesses were closing. And too many were acting arrogantly with their Open Carry. SHINee helped me shut it all out. They took me to a different world.
