This man’s name is Baekho (Kang Dongho). He is a 23-year-old South Korean singer and songwriter with an incredible voice, who penned multiple hits for his own group and other artists over the years. He also composes and works as a vocal coach/director for other artists under the company he is signed for. A former athlete and a gym enthusiast who can carry all four of his group members at the same time, he showcases time and time again he never heard of toxic masculinity, speaking to his fans about his childhood desire to be a princess, his other hobbies such as eating and decorating yogurt, and his love for cute things. He is a frequent visitor of dog cafes, and a big animal lover. Both small children and small animals love him.
So what is the reason for me writing all of this? Recently, he has been a victim of bodyshaming on stan Twitter from fans of another group, who irationally hate the group he is a part of. As someone who struggled with body image for years and was forced to go on extremely restrictive diets by his company despite always being of healthy weight, it makes me so sad to see the mocking, insulting comments directed at him. He doesn’t deserve that whatsoever. Baekho has only recently become confident enough to show his body, which got him noticed by Men’s Health Korea and earned him a magazine cover, but somehow these people say he needs to lose weight. Nothing he does is ever enough to haters.
This man is a nice person. He is a kind soul, beautiful inside and out, and although he doesn’t fit the so-called “flower boy” beauty standard of the Korean pop industry, he doesn’t deserve hate for being his healthy, handsome self. Different is good too, isn’t it?
So what I am trying to say is that the actual ugly people here are all those hiding behind anonymous accounts and egg icons to spew hate towards others just because they don’t like them. They’re ugly on the inside and pathetic. What sad lives these people are living to make themselves feel good by putting down others. Sad. I truly feel sorry for them.
Imagine being so desperate that you have to bodyshame a Men’s Health cover guy to feel better

Huge pet peeve in video games is when you can’t hold your breath underwater for very long or it takes a good while to regain your breath above water. Unrealistic. Like my condolences to the devs for your lack of breath support but that just could not be me…
guys there’s this really cute show I’ve been watching lately, it’s super underrated and nobody talks about it on here ! the main character is an autistic smol bean and there’s SO MANY gay, poc, and female characters throughout the episodes. ✨✨✨ it’s called big bang theory and
this is the guy who said that the people making fun of the avant garde restaurant where you eat foam dessert served in a plaster cast of the chef’s mouth were “spiritually bankrupt” (direct quote)
I have a bad habit of calling things “loathsome” if they mildly inconvenience me, which usually isn’t that bad, but today I spilled my drink and said “loathsome juice…” under my breath without realizing that’s not a normal thing to say
If you went to a bar and the bartender was a mousegirl you could ask for a drink and she would balance it on her head and say “for you, it’s on the mouse”
what a cute and lovely post i’m sure glad there aren’t any completely deranged freaks in the notes trying to read into this like it’s some sort of diabolical conspiracy
