#honestly last year was so stressful for so many reasons but not knowing if dc would keep going as the group I used to love and cherish#was one of the worst things for me - avoiding their content because it just stressed me out when it used to be something that brought me#so much joy - like it has really been a process to dismantle all of those negative feelings and ik some people would probably think this is#really dramatic and I'm okay with people not feeling the same (and honestly thank god because it sucked to feel like that towards people#I care a lot about but the point is that you know all of the uncertainty really gets to you at some point and I feel#you know what's what yoohyeon said actually that made my brain finally give that click#she said something like 'I was happier with your return that I was able to show' and how she was thankful that she chose to return to them#I think in that moment it really hit me that they had the same doubts I did for a while and I guess it's just#comforting to know that and to know that they overcame all that#I feel like this situation could've gone so many wrong ways but I think we really got SO LUCKY with if#and despite everything the fact that there's no resentment between them or anything of the sort.... it really makes me want to be okay#with last year too#I think it will still take me a while to be okay with boca era specially but at the end of the day this is just#meant to be fun and fulfilling - and so far it has definitely been worth to push forward and stick around#I'm really looking forward to everything they have planned for this year

mcnd - top gang, ice age
both these are amazing and like i listen to both when i'm hella happy and they're just
wow iconic. kinda sad spring and nanana aren't as wow but i hope their next cb is amazing
--
ateez - answer, inception
answer deserves soty like seriously it really set the tone for the year and was the start to a line of amazing releases. and i didn't like inception at first but it really grew on me and i'll argue that hongjoong's rap in the beginning is one of the best in kpop this year
--
loona - so what
this lowkey sounds like a war anthem and i love how hype and energetic it is like i just wanna run a marathon while listening to this. it's the main reason i wanna stan loona
--
the boyz - reveal, stealer
so i admittedly stopped liking reveal for awhile and i didn't like the stealer at first but
reveal is already a classic and i will: jam. and the stealer is such a unique concept i feel like and it's just amazing and we need more like it
--
pentagon - dr. bebe, daisy
okay both of these are slept on and they fucking deserve better. pentagon is one of those groups that doesn't seem to care so much about trends and what's popular and they're just doing their own thing and actually caring about the music and we love to see it bc both of these are art and some of the best releases of 2020
--
dreamcatcher - scream, boca
dreamcatcher really is doing their own thing and it's just unique and works so well and both these songs hype the fuck out of me like yes lemme go to hell real quick and punch satan
--
nct
i'm not even gonna list songs for them like there's so many. 2020 was nct's year, tell me otherwise. everything they released was quality and amazing and just,,, s o much like wow. ig that's the perks of having so many members and multiple units. but fr mark needs a break next year. poor guy has been promoting like almost all year
--
itzy - wannabe
this is the first itzy era that really felt like an era to me like
i see so many people talk about how taylor swift was everywhere and inescapable during 1989 era and that's what wannabe felt like for the kpop world like,,, the song was everywhere, ryujin's shoulder dance was everywhere. it's still everywhere. this is probably one of the most (if not the most) iconic releases of 2020
--
(g)i-dle - oh my god, dumdi dumdi
okay i feel like oh my god blew up for a second and then just,,, was forgotten. and dumdi dumdi lowkey felt like the only people who acknowledged it were the fans and the general kpop community ignored it. at least from what i've observed. but both deserve so much more like idle really didnt come to play this year and the q u a l i t y of the music was just wow. stan gidle for clear skin
--
solar - spit it out
sigh, another amazing release that was slept on. i have so many good memories with this song already and i think it's gonna be a super nostalgic song for me
--
chungha - stay tonight, play, dream of you
this year really feels like one big nct and chungha era and i love it. chungha snapped with each release and they're all so fucking good like
can this woman do any wrong
--
txt
just like nct and chungha, everything they released this year was on another level. q u a l i t y
txt never fails to amaze me with the way they offer so much quality and they're only a year old like
music industry take notes
--
twice - more & more, i can't stop me
i'm getting lazy now so im probs not gonna make as many paragraphs but twice just being iconic queens this year as usual. we stan
--
n.flying - oh really.
this is like,,, my mega emotional support song of the year
like oh yay will to live gone crying on the bedroom floor, oh really is there to give me a big hug and just help me cry it out and help me feel better. the emotional attachment i've got for this song is probs far from healthy
--
nature - girls
OKAY BUT WHY IS THIS SO SLEPT ON. THEY PERFECTED A HORROR CONCEPT WHERE'S THE ROUND OF APPLAUSE AND AWARDS. THIS IS 2020 LIKE LETS GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT'S DUE
--
stray kids - easy, back door
easy deserves better js. but anyway back door is about gay sex, i will not be convinced otherwise
--
seventeen - right & left, 24h
seventeen is one of the groups that really just made my summer amazing and helped me to have hope despite all the crazy shit going on
--
blackpink
too lazy to type out their releases. but blackpink was just i c o n i c this year. i dont own multiple copies of the album for nothing
--
sunmi - pporappippam
this song is like
such a mood setter for me. no matter what mood i'm in it can improve it. if i used spotify this would probs be my most streamed song of the year
--
what you waiting for - somi
yeah we're lazy now. this song is like a cavity of happiness and i will ward off anybody that tries to fix the cavity
--
treasure - boy, i love you, mmm
i havent kept up with award shows this year but if they didnt win roty then i'm rioting

truly like lets reflect. You and I era, up against g*dle’s very successful debut, no matter dc got their first noms lets go! What era, up against two bigger groups with bigger fandoms, we tried, we’ll get it next time. Piri era, The Show gave dc 0 points for expert score, we needed 1245 to win, so out of 1500 even 1000 would at least have seemed close but a near miss. 0 was ridiculous. 1st week Deja Vu.. do i even need to? 11 points. 0 expert score (cough minus -122 points COUGH) fcuk The Show. 2nd week DV.. a sudden festival with no announced winner. Scream, impossible up against a Top 4 gg. Boca, our guaranteed win. Covid outbreak in SBS building, The Show is cancelled for the one week we stood a chance. Odd Eye, probably the first era in a while we’ve actually had a fair shot, The Show changed up the rules. no more Starplay votes only SMS live votes for korean fans only. Oh well they brought back intl votes before BEcause era only for them to take away the free votes charging so either pay or less votes plus the olympics and timing wiping away our first week results sighhhh sorry for the long post i needed that out
for piri they also didn't count dc's physical albums for whatever reason... we would've won. but like you said, we'd get it next time, it would've been fine, except it wasn't because we just got screwed again.
also odd eye era... woolim's manipulation was very very obvious and that bg would not have won without that (I mean really iu was topping the charts and they somehow got a #1 on genie several times right before the charts froze? among other things that tbh I don't wanna get into bc it's pointless) so even if we weren't that screwed by the music shows themselves (tho we were by the show bc the pre-vote and live voting would've made a difference since it's still like 20% together??), that definitely screwed us over.
honestly this always gets me upset but what am I gonna do? give up? I'm too stubborn and loyal for that lmao every cb lately I think to myself that it's gonna be the last time I'll get involved with digital projects and then a cb gets announced and I just jump on it again... they really deserve this and I still want to do what I can to help. I think I just miss that feeling of hopefulness from before yk, I always used to think that it was okay and we would get it with time, at some point the numbers would be undeniable. but it's been like that for a while now and seeing how other groups have managed to achieve that with less feels really disheartening yk (by this I don't mean that those groups didn't deserve their wins, because they did, and ik they worked hard for it too, just that this is unfair towards dc and us). but it is what it is, and for the stuff that we can't control we just gotta let it go and let it be. at the end of the day we're still really spoiled by dc, altho I'll admit that I do miss all the pre-covid content a lot ;-; I never realised how endearing their interactions during fansigns and fanmeetings were to me until all of this happened, there's been a kind of naturalness from them that I've missed a lot, idk if that even makes sense KSDJ either way I still believe that dc will get that first win soon, and many more after that, they become more and more successful with each comeback and their growth has been really exponential for the past year. summer holiday in less than 2 months of release is literally 2k from surpassing road to utopia's sales (128k) that has been out for 9 almost months now, it's kinda mind blowing when you think about how in 2019 they sold like 60k albums combined... anyway I am derailing at this point, we'll get through this together 🤠
