A Little Rant About Kpop Fans (Part 1/?)

     This isn't necessarily something that I should be talking about, but I've just wanted to get what I've been thinking out. I may get hated, called racist, and/or ignorant, but these are the things I think, I'm not saying you have to agree with me. So...what is this rant going to be about? A lot of things actually, mostly revolving around S.M. Entertainment and relating topics.
First off, K-POP Auditions.
What I'd like to say about this is...if you're just wanting to get into a Kpop company because of your bias and wanting to meet him and somehow end up marrying him, please don't audition. Kpop company's judges aren't there to watch you try to meet your bias, they just want to see if you have talent or not. I'm someone who can't make it to a Global Audition for S.M Entertainment or a weekly audition because I live in the Midwest. I am not here to talk about myself, but I'd just like to say that since I can't make it to the auditions, I'm going to soon upload covers onto YouTube in hopes of being recognized for my possible talents of piano or singing. If not, am I going to cry over why I can't sign into my favorite company and meet my bias? NO, I am going to keep trying...because I have a passion for music, not a dream of meeting my bias. Would I like to? Yes, yes I would.
     This brings me slightly off topic, but I find that overly proud people are annoying. I've recently looked at answers on Yahoo! and other places, but what bothers me is when people either ask "Am I beautiful enough?" or they instead just straight out say "I'm talented." Asians, myself being one, do have that sense that we do a lot of bragging, but most Asians find a humbler person more appealing. If you're just telling people about yourself such as facial features, skills, and personality, don't go overboard. Look at yourself from a humbler view, people who are humble will have this charisma to them, don't believe me? Well, most of your favorite Kpop idols may not seem humble, but they are definitely not bragging whenever they can.
     It still annoys me sometimes when people say that S.M. Entertainment is 80% looks and 20 % talent. Have you seen their idols predebut?! They don't look half as good as they do now, so of course the talent scout would've probably seen charisma and/or something special about that person. S.M isn't all about looks. So don't say that all the S.M idols are untalented and only have pretty faces, because there's more to them than just that.

Dear S.M. Entertainment,

     I have some questions...First off, I'm about 170 cm and I'm only fourteen, turning fifteen in July. I weigh a little heavier than 53 kg, but I'm planning on working out and exercising to weigh less. I'm also fluent in English and Vietnamese, quite a bit in Spanish, and a little in Korean. I have been playing piano for almost 6 years and have accompanied with masses and concerts, as well as composing few short compositions of my own. I am also currently learning how to play the organ for almost a year. As for singing, I can sing very high, and have reached the high notes in IU's "Good Day." I can also rap, not extremely good at it, but I can still rap. I think I'm alright at dancing, but I'm also not terrible good at it. I do wear glasses though, so is that a problem? I don't think I have the palest skin since I'm Vietnamese, but I have double eyelids, but there's a weird difference with both my eyes, they're kind of different from each other....and I'm not sure why, it just happened one day. I was wondering if uploading my covers on YouTube would ever attract a person from a company...

WILL ANYONE ANSWER MY QUESTIONS!?

My wish is to become the first Vietnamese American trainee at S.M. Entertainment, but living in Minnesota, USA is what's stopping me from being able to audition. I really hope that I'll be able to one day enter the SM Family :)
