Recently, an online community post went viral after a long-time fan wrote an honest message about idol-turned-actress Krystal.
In the post, the fan reveals that despite becoming an idol-turned-actress, they felt she wasn’t trying to build a stable career in either field.
“If you want to have a stable career as an actress, then sign with an acting agency, film various projects, and grow your experience so that you can work in a bigger field, regardless of whether it is your style or not.
If you want to have a stable career as a singer, then I beg you to find an agency that knows how to promote its artists and that releases good songs and albums often.”
To put it blatantly, it feels like you aren’t either. You need to be able to have an eye for finding a good agency and part ways with the staff around you. If you have to move shops, you need to be able to make excuses and just move on. That’s how people live, changing departments and jobs.
Whether or not you want to continue your career as an actor or singer, the obstacles in front of you are clear. If you can’t get out of that, then you will never be able to escape from your roles in ‘The Heirs’ or ‘High Kick’, and the only hit song you will have will be ‘Hot Summer’ or ‘Rum Pum Pum Pum’.
“I’m not saying you have to appear on all the YouTube channels other people appear on, but you could try appearing on even just a few of the shows for promotion purposes.
I really wish you a happy birthday, but after seeing that article, while you just continue to live life like that, everything that I held in just exploded.”
From now on, I won’t make the effort to search your name and find things about you until someone asks me if I have seen your new album and shows me the music charts, or unless someone shows me a poster of a new movie that you are starring in.
I waited a long time and was a huge fan. I think it’s time for you to make a move, not me. Fans of actors say that this is how it is for actors, but I feel like you have been too harsh on us, and it makes me angry. I know it looks like I wrote this while drinking.
I feel like most of the fans here probably have the same thoughts as me. Hope you have a good birthday.
Seeing this, netizens felt that it would be best to move on if they had waited that long.
- “Seems like she doesn’t communicate with fans. Communication between fans and artists is important, but it can become a reason for leaving the fandom if they don’t know the fans’ needs. I’m not a fan, but I do like her.”
- “Unstanning is the answer. It’s not like they waited one or two years.”
- “I totally understand their position.”
- “If they are a fan, they should know the artist’s style…”
- “I guess she isn’t really into succeeding…But I understand the fan since there needs to be teamwork between the artist and the fans.”
Just last week, it was reported that Krystal would release her first-ever solo album on her birthday, October 24.
