This reminds me of the thing that NCT Dreams manager told them "always be thankful. always be humble. always greet properly" regardless of what industry you're in it's important to maintain respect and find a way to come back down to earth and remember what even allowed you to get where you are
👌🏻👏🏻💚
Yesss💚✨
Yess!! I gladly preach that 💚💚
in mc ari we believe.
💚
i applaud somi for acknowledging her problem and improving herself. that's not something many people can do, unfortunately..
@@trishikdas1050 do u know that? the black label is pushing her as a “broken savage girl” in her music videos because that’s the character she portrays, that’s part of her style of music. of course she wants to be successful but that doesn’t mean she as a person is losing herself
@@trishikdas1050 yeah but u genuinely don’t KNOW her you’ve never met her. you can’t tell a person by the vibes they pick up on their instagram.
@@trishikdas1050 yeah ok.
@@1ia802 ikr
awareness itself is progress she'll get there hopefully
Agree with somi, there must be some point where celebrities have that attitude, or at least have a thought that they're a celeb and should be treated right. It's just about how they can overcome it and snap back to always remember where they were before fame
I think it's also worth taking into account how young idols can be when they debut. It's probably easier for teenagers to fall victim to the celebrity disease as they're still developing mentally and they're being given a lot more power than most children would have. I see a lot of people now going after Wonyoung for a supposed celebrity disease and considering the fact that she's only 17 it's entirely possible that she is, but will most likely grow out of it just like Somi.
I think Wonyoung is going through that now tbh
@@NinjaKittkatt this is a very good point!
@@NinjaKittkatt exactly, both Somi and wonyoung debuted at a young age so it’s not surprising
@@NinjaKittkatt Well said
Txt Soobin said in one of the vlive about why everyone in txt respects yeonjun so much,,it's cause when they were trainees many trainees used to write diss tracks about non existent haters while he wrote about problems facing in company... Like he use to write about real situation what is happening in his life and divert anger about that situation in raps pointing out flaws in the system and such things while others were having celebrity disease without being celebrity...
“Non existent haters” lmaooo😭😭😭😭😭
Yeonjun is so talented and humble, he always gives his fans advice on his vlives and leaves loving messages for them. I feel that he is one of the few idols who is truly grateful for his fame and the love he receives.
This is the thing that i don't like. Making your own rule book and applying those rules to everyone. It is great if someone Was privileged enough to be liked and loved by everyone and never had any haters but this might not be same with everyone. People who are not celebrities still have haters. Some people always have those figures in their mind who look down upon them, they might be their friends, bully or their own family members. And someone who is an artist will obviously use their art to express their frustration for those kind of poeple. I can't believe there are people who look down on those trainees who wrote diss tracks.
I totally admire Yeonjun for that, because even if they had some “haters” (that would be people who wasn’t good to you, and ALL of us have been in that situation), writing diss tracks it’s way easier that writing more meaningful lyrics.
I love him.
I used to work in advertising and have met a few of my country's celebrities, one of them was really popular and he's really very kind and super polite, we were shooting a commercial and at some point I told him that he was the nicest celebrity I've met (I've met a few who treated us like dirt) and asked him how do people like him stay grounded. He said he cleans his bathroom regularly, "cleaning my toilet bowl always reminds me that I'm not above anyone" he would also do his own laundry and cooking "don't allow anyone to do everything for you when you can do it yourself". I think about that every time I clean my bathroom. That's one swell guy.
Wow. Such a cool person.
Cuz it's so easy and usually done if person is very busy and very wealthy to hire help to do house chores especially cleaning.
Ohh who is it?
@@razee7869 that's a private matter so I think the author will not say the celebrity's name
That’s honestly a surprising way but it’s so true!! Whoever that person is, they’re honestly very smart and amazing. I love the tactic but I am dying over how he worded it 💀 it makes u think about it if he doesn’t explain it and when he does it all made sense 😂 (sorry if that sounds weird)
oh my- that's such a smart and good thinking
the way that somi was able to admit she was falling into that is really respectable. I see a lot of younger idols falling into this especially when they become deemed as "monster rookies." It's actually what I think netizens see in Iz*one/IVE's Wonyoung because she debuted at such a young age and won pd48 at rank 1. I think though people should give her some slack or at least time to mature because honestly, the idol industry stunts the emotional growth of a lot of these minors. She can still change.
idk but wonyoung is just being herself. she didn't catch the celebrity disease she's just hated for no reason. she isn't cocky or smth and she loves her fans
@@canna5251 there's been clips of her forgetting to bow during music shows and it's painted how a lot of netizens see her, Korean and international but mostly Korean...though once again I really think that lack of self awareness is just a function of her age.
@@de341f6 that one vid of her not bowing was actually strategically edited to paint her in a bad light. this video explains it better than i can in writing: ua-cam.com/video/FJfDkxI5WyA/v-deo.html
Watch as people are going to defend her because you said this and tbh, I have to agree with you, there are so many idols who have the celebrity disease, it’s pretty obvious by just looking at their faces.
@@cherrybear8288 Half of you don't know her/haven't seen her UNTIL IVE debuted. I don't even care for her much, but I do not get those vibes from her at all. There's a multitude of content from IZ*ONE days, in which no one had an issue with her then & she acts practically the same as now. She's a kid, she's been in the idol industry since she was like 12- does she have attitude problems? Honestly, we don't know & never will. She never shows it in front of cameras, she's always kind in public, she's never disrespected fans or members, she seems like an overall nice girl. I'm almost positive most of this hate is coming from people mad she's the center of a monster rookie group, she's pretty (idc abt plastic surgery btw), she seems sweet, she's almost 100% going into "it" girl territory (its cringe to even call anyone an it girl, lol), & she's not untalented. IS2G y'all literally camp her videos, posts, etc just to find something to cry and complain about. if you hate her then...ignore her? It screams jealousy the way y'all come for this kid. If she's really this horrible person, only time will tell & it'll come out on it's own. As of now, I don't think clawing at random miniscule things is making you look good. But imo? Wonyo seems like a sweet girl who's doing her best with what she's been given.
I've noticed the ONLY people criticizing her SO harshly are literal children in youtube comments or on tiktok.
It not just idols or celebrities sometimes fandoms are like that too. They think their idols are some kind a godly figure and they should only remain on top no one can come near them. They even go as far as bullying harassing other idols/ fandom, sending hate comments, sending bad bad reviews cause they are raising fame more/ charting high then their fev .
Well said. Couldn't agree more
@@1mstillin2019 I wasn't exactly pointing out that still yes,some fan can be really insecure about there idols but I wouldn't say middle successful groups fandoms are the most insecure ones.
@G-Taehyung true
You can say blinks withoth being scared lol
@@jjba3571 if I want to nitpick just blinks/any fandom I would have straight up just say blinks are like that.
Remaining humble while living the famous life is not easy for some. It's easy for others to get swept up in the limelight. For others, remaining humble takes effort that is put in daily. It's a constant personal reflection everyday one goes through everyday. Everyone is human, mistakes are made, but, when one falls from their mistakes (in this case the "celebrity disease") it's how they overcome it. It also requires having humble people around you and meeting other humble people. The ones that don't change are the ones that will always be selfish, self-centered, and self-righteous; Vanity will be their driving force. There is no easy way to avoid the " celebrity disease ", celebrities have to constantly work to remain humble or work to get there. Time only tells who is humble which fans have to deal with. And sometimes fans feed the flame of the "celebrity disease" and enable it too. There are a lot of factors.
Istg if I were a celeb, I DEFINITELY would've gotten atleast a bit of this 'disease'. Back in 9th grade, I won first place for a still life contest in our school and got a lot of compliments and it got to my head. I'm glad that I'm (atleast a bit) self-aware so I realized my mistake pretty quickly.
Good thing you know your limits and are self- aware 👏 👏
same. i would be a menace if i became famous.
@@feaww5085 a menace 😭 lol
I hate compliments so idk if I'd have that problem XD
Hani to me is someone that is extremely humble. Exid pretty much shot to fame thanks to her viral fancam, and she still remembers the fan site that took her fancam many years later at a concert. But she never came across as ‘ I deserve this fame’, but rather ‘I’m extremely thankful for this opportunity’. Now she is even studying hoping to be a psychiatrist that can help future idols with their mental health
Hani is so nice for that 😭
yeah she also sometimes bring the other members to her variety shows. She never forgets to shine a light to her members.
I always loved her so much
A lot of people are talking about Wonyoung and Somi in the comments. Fame is really hard to handle even for adults so I think we should go a bit easier on idols who debuted when they were just teenagers. When your mindset is still developing and you're naturally still a bit immature due to your young age, it's easier to get caught up in these things. Especially when everyone constantly praises you and puts you on a pedestal like some kind of goddess. Respect for Somi for acklowledging it and fixing it, she's a good girl
but even wonyoung debuted younger, she never acted superior among their staffs or people around her. staffs call her polite and sweet. even calls her stylist, mom. what are these comments even saying.. TT wonyoung is a sweet and respectful girl, she never looked down on anyone. people are misunderstanding the ive situation again
@@mika-nv9uu ikr its a little hard seeing everybody saying wonyoung has the celebrity diseases when its just based on those bowing clips. I havent really seen any other instances that can point out any arrogance but if she has them im sure she can deal with it well
@@mika-nv9uu THIS. I've never been a huge Wonyo stan, even during IZ*ONE days, but I can confidently say she has never given me rude vibes. She just seems like a sweet kid who's trying to have fun & make the most of her situation. Of course, she could've totally experienced this entitled attitude, it kinda comes with the job like Somi said. But idk... I've heard nothing but good things about her from staffs, people behind the scenes, etc... so it's kind of weird seeing people claw at things to hate her for. Also, not to mention, IZ*ONE was full of extremely hard working & humble girls, I think they were a good influence on her from a young age & probably helped a lot.
@@aleleliah i think they think its hard to believe someone like her can be that perfect lol they hve to speculate and make assumptions on her personality
@@Tellurium52mloid I couldn’t agree more. I mean you see someone like her who has achieved a lot at a young age ppl be getting jealous and assuming and speculating about her. Cause its kind of unbelievable how successful she is.
Sung Hoon saying Btob are ugly is weird since they're some of the best looking older idols weirder when they're not the current generation even in 2019 so why did his fan target them? Who cares about looks but Btob sure as hell are not ugly by any degree. Sung Hoon himself is not the prettiest idol or god tier visuals for the ego he carts around chained to his ankle. He looks like Donghae from super junior but not as handsome imho.
And their personalities make them 10 times more attractive
It caught me offguard too. Like all of a sudden you are coming for BTOB. They do nothing but stay in their lane and produce good music.
@@SK-so5jy He's just jealous that they're all better vocalists than him
He in no way looks like Donghae... Donghae is clearly on another level 💕💙
He wish he was as handsome as btob members lol , they are manly and kind and talented, that dude was jjat jelous
EXOs kyungsoo is incredibly humble and seems to be the literal opposite of this celebrity disease. He’s just so genuine to himself and humble, always helping others and being unapologetically himself. I love it.
Our penguin
Ahh I love him 💕
He doesn't even act like a celebrity 😭 I don't why but I find him so cute.
Yea thank you for acknowledging hes so precious❤
He is literally the pride of Exo
woah, somi is so cool for admitting that! even after you've changed, it can still be hard to face mistakes from your past and even tell other people about them, so loads of respect to her for talking about it!
The idols that admit it have so much respect from me. It’s tough to admit your flaws especially when you were entirely wrong. It also speaks that they reflect on their behaviour and change :)
Eventho I'm just a casual listener, but BTOB's personality is truly admirable. They're one of the most humble senior group in the industry, and easily make their juniors feel comfortable around them.
And they are true gentlemen, they give their jackets to apink in a show cuz the award didnt give her blankets for her legs, theybare so niceeee
don't know them really well but I know Soobin from TXT is friends with Minhyuk(? I think I got his name wrong), and Bahiyyih from Kep1er is presumed to be a fan of him, in a radio interview she seemed very excited and he was so friendly and nice to her, I can count with fingers of one hand the amount of senior idols who have that relationship with juniors. Like yeah it's probably because of generational differences but most of the time seniors see juniors just like that, as someone below them. It's nice to see people act nice no matter their "titles"
Minhyuk too?
@@fullsun2236 Ya cuz everyone say soobin look like minhyuk. And ya BtoB is very good people.
I'm an Atiny and I became a fan of BTOB after seeing the way they interacted with Ateez on Kingdom. It was so wholesome!
I remember that time when CNBLUE have a comeback after a long time & Yonghwa was BAFFLED cause even when they were the eldest group promoting at the moment BTS was the only group the went to greet them. Poor guy felt old & out of it bc rookies were acting that way. He thought maybe music shows manners were changing but now that even Soomi say so I think the celebrity disease was very high that day
Do u have video of him saying that or any articles? I want to know more
@@alia-kx1pl Sorry I only remember it was in a radio show around the You're so fine era :/ 2016 I think...
Oh this reminds me, this happened to SNSD when they made their last comeback. They actually mentioned how only EXO came to greet them and gave them an album, and then the next time the other juniors who were very new, found out about how SNSD was disappointed and came over. Probably because SNSD actually mentioned this in public and maybe the idols were made to go apologize and greet them the next time to save face
@@janinejay3423 Well now I found Sejeong (ex ioi & gugudan) talking in Knoing Brother how some juniors didn't greet her once she re-debuted, like bc her group wasn't as "famous" she automatically lose her seniority
Considering hierarchy is big thing in korea I think idols who don't greet or don't use honorifics are more than just be "big heads" they are plain rude
Well BTS itself was looked down for changing in the bathroom and practice in the hall and don't have a changing room. I think it was a member of a girl group who revealed this
It's great that Somi realized she had this problem. Takes a lot to admit past mistakes and work on them to be better. Shows a Lot of maturity
Let’s take a moment to appreciate how much effort they put in the video just for us. ❤️
Somi is def a celebrity disease. She acting like she friends with bp members when they hardly hang out with her
@@Hyper-milkshake your jealousy is showing
@@ptskts9657 literally how does saying someone having celebrity disease and hanging out with someone means jealous 😭 y’all brain ain’t working properly
@@Hyper-milkshake how does hanging out with celebrities make her a celebrity disease?and you're acting like she's making their friendship up 💀 you blinks try everything to bring down others
@Tomie 🖤 they lacking brain cells, that why their faves are all flops
Lee hyori is so down to earth now. It’s crazy she was able to change. So many people never change from an entitled mindset
and she STILL hasn't apologized for the cultural apporpriation 🙄
@@zzzonline what
@@8luvbug ua-cam.com/video/5sXl7kVIUZY/v-deo.html specifically she completely disrespected Hinduism and never apologized.
@@zzzonline oh.
This is why I stan SEVENTEEN. Humblest boys, despite breaking records and reaching revolutionary heights each time.
I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THEM?? LIKE THEY ARE SO HUMBLE AND THEY MAKE EVERYONE AROUND THEM FEEL SO LOVED. BEST BOYS EVER
and they have never been problematic either
Same and the part that they make their shy introverted members shine too is just so amazing.
Facts ryt here
@@igotaponytail8472 yes I once typed unproblematic kpop group on UA-cam and they were the first to pop up!
This is kinda similar to the "중2병" in Korea when 8th graders' narcissism suddenly increase so much that they act like if they're heroes from comic books and act really cringey. I've never felt this but this is surprisigly similar to Sunghoon's case. Narcissism isn't bad but crossing the line and affecting others are bad.
so basically chuunibyous lol
Narcissism isn't bad? 💀
@@maothecat7949 idk about being bad or not but a narcissistic mindset ruins relationships. cuz the narcissist olds themselves above all
ah, you mean chuunibyou, honestly there is thin line between narcissism and chuunibyou, usually chuunibyou still be polite and learn their manner, and it'll grow out easily after 1/2 years, they only act like they're in anime/manga character after all, u could say its similar to emo phase in western, meanwhile narcissism usually quite hard to be fix/cure, they'll still had that kind of attitude even they're grew, a lot of them still will became parent and still had narcissism, i ever got caught in chuunibyou, and yeah i still think about other people, still quite polite, even my friends wondering why i still use formal word sometime to them even after we became close, u could say it just a rebellious phase
also SOMI: **friends with the whole kpop industry**
AND- **gives fried chicken too whole staff**
Now that's what you call character development😂
Lowkey not liking how everyone is tryna save their idols from this label of "disease", we rlly need to talk about this and normalize it being addressed bc then, more idols would realise that for themselves or even call out their other idols friends for it. Kinda not liking how instead of us collectively tryna recognize that sometimes fame do get into our idols minds bc you know ... they're human, but we must try to call them out in proper way (instead of bullying them) yet here yall are tryna bring up your idols and "saving" them. THAT'S LITERALLY NOT THE POINT YALL !!
👏👏👏
Agree. At the same time we have to understand that celebs don't own us things when they are not working.
I saw a lot of people getting mad at celebs for not accepting pictures, they don't have to take pictures with you if they don't want.
Exactly. We don't know these idols personally. Everyone in the comments saying "not my faves" are pretty naive.
I'll definitely suffer this disease if I were a celebrity
.......and become popular....
Hahaha same
Hyorin was known for that kind of attitude, when she became a soloist and at her peak she even forgot her former group the group that made her, she was very narcissistic but good thing now that she find her soul in Jeju
Hyorin as in Sistar’s Hyolyn? Wow, I didn’t know about that…
@Caleb theodore Gonzales ah, I get it now! Thanks :)
Seungri is the prime example of celebrity disease
Im a VIP but I must admit Seungri was flying too high for him even before the burning sun situation. The rest of BigBang are all rounders and humble af, but many of us believed that Seungri was envious of them. You can see that between the four there are no competition, but Seungri was always lacking in some ways (and now he's completely ruined). I've been a VIP for more than 10 years so in no way, shape or form this is hate. I feel like many people would agree.
he sounds like one of those people who overcompensate for what they hugely lack, after learning he wasn't actually included in the lineup until last minute. that definitely didn't create inferiority issues, surprisingly, the people who get into sex related crimes or end up on r/niceguys somehow were not exactly the most talented people.
No he is just plain bad
Seungri - I must say I don't know the current state of his criminal charges - but from the last I heard of him and things he did, it seems that rather than celebrity disease, he is a symptom of Chaebol culture in Korea. In a few words, people who are so powerful they barely even face consequences for their crimes. An interesting watch, if you don’t know what I'm talking about: m.ua-cam.com/video/wHw7Aa7lhhw/v-deo.html&feature=share
@@EfeFlet can't agree more
Hey
there are some toxic kpop fans and to them being obsessed over an idol means being a true fan. And whenever they meet a non toxic or a kpop fan who is not obsessed, toxic fans tell them that they are not a part of the fandom or they are fake fans.
Please make video about this also its really big issue but no one talks about it 💜
Yesssssss
The reason why I stay away from fandoms...
@@prikkeroglapper honestly same. I started to be a casual listener of kpop when I noticed how toxic kpop stan could be and it made me really uncomfortable 😟
Cha Eunwoo,my boy is literally everywhere in Korea but never have i ever seen him let fame get into his head...Always so respectful,humble and loving!
Controversial, but I think of B.I when I hear humble. This guy won songwriter of the year and is one of the best songwriters ever, but thanked everyone for their support by deep bowing to all his fans and supporters. He also consistently does good deeds and charity unnoticed, unlike most celebrities who publish their charity efforts as a moral token. Y’all may come at me for mentioning him, but inside he is really a good person that made some mistakes
this made me admire kpop idols like seventeen, if yall try to watch their reality and variety shows, especially in their interviews (staff insiders who worked w svt also highly admires their personality, respect and demeanor towards ppl they are working with, regardless of status) you can feel their humbleness and genuinity on screen ever since their debut. those are just the few idols i can think of as a multi stan that doesn't possess the celebrity disease.
ommggg seventeen is my ult group. more like...the only group i keep up with nowadays. and yes u are so right about this!
Yes 😭 and they also did their personality test on gose... It was not only like good traits 😭 my respect skyrocketed after that epi...
I've read somewhere before that when an artist join any variety shows, it means they are not that popular and need those shows to boost their popularity or current project. As for that celebrity disease, well, we really don't know who's who or if what they are showing in front of camera is the same behind the camera.
I mean idk abt that because alot of artists join popular variety shows to promote comebacks or dramas ect even if they are popular?
Lots of top of the industry groups still do variety shows to promote their comeback.
That may have been the case a long time ago but not now, they appear on variety to promote their comebacks or other activities. Now it's just a regular promoting strategy. Or they appear bc the PD or casts specifically requested/invited them. Honestly majority of the artists, actors and actresses are the reason some of these variety shows even maintain stable ratings but agreed you never know 100% how they are off camera
Honestly, I don't think that's the case. Variety shows have always existed to promote the celebrities, one way or another. And before social media, it was the only way fans could have content of their idols. Back in the day there was only the group/celebrity fancafe, nothing more. So they HAD to go to shows, the more the better.
I remember that it was actually YGEnt, or more likely the idols from that company, that started this "we are artists, not entertainers" thing when they were invited to shows like Running Man or Infinity Challenge (I can't remember who actually said it, tho. It was too many years ago). They were classified as "VIP idols" after that, so people started to believe that idols that go to variety shows "to make a fool of themselves" weren't "real/good" idols like them.
@@Lizzy_Kim I guess when you put it that way that is also true kind of but variety shows weren't always just to solely promote though back then. As you said it was also just how fans could be able to see their groups more and have some content especially before SNS, not really just for promoting. It was the best way for them to be known and seen by fans in general.
I was mainly pointing out that these days it's mostly just to promote comebacks and/or new dramas bc now there are plenty of other ways to get extra content to fans that not everyone even sees the need to guest on tv network variety shows as often anymore when they're able to make their own varitey shows on online platforms instead. The only time I really think idols go on to boost their popularity is when they just debuted and need that exposure and interaction for content to gain fans. Other than that it's just promoting comebacks and other activities that are just starting up
Artists going on variety show has stopped being believed as "making a fool of themselves" a while ago, If anything Artists who are going on variety shows or picked as fixed guest are thought to be really popular/fan favorites and making a difference in the shows viewer ratings now.
People once they rise to fame they get a little juice and forget who they was drinking water with…i really wish people wouldn’t let the fame and attention get to their heads and not forget where they came from and dont look at other people like they are less than
Sunghoon sounded more like he was projecting his own insecurities on others. He's not typically good looking without all the makeup and clothes and colored hair, and it seemed he was jealous of younger idols fresh and unique looks. This is normal behavior for humans, but still unacceptable.
Somi is hands down my favorite idol. She holds herself accountable and has grown into a wonderful person.
I think basic things in life such cooking their own food , doing your laundry and even doing your own hair goes a long way. With so much fame and ofc money, u can easily hire a housekeeper but that is when the discipline kicks in.
Celebrities are still humans so they need to choose their morals over money esp that are public figure that influences people.
A former idol (ex Blady) now UA-camr have said that idol group "G" was rude and she used to look up to this group and promoted together on The Show. Another group she promoted on Show Champion was idol group "L" that was rude to the makeup staff. Some people were speculating to be Girl's Day and Laboum since Blady was promoting around the same time with these idols. Others also speculate Gfriend and Lovelyz, but argued that it couldn't be them because the former idol was a fan of idol group "G" (possibly sunbae).
Lovelyz was the group Blady promoted with. People brought up Laboum mostly because of misinformation. (Also, it's just a personal opinion, but based on what Tina said, I don't think that girl was being an total asshole to the staff member. Sure, I get why it came off as not very nice, but I don't think she was being an ass on purpose.)
Narcissistic traits are very easy to develop in a society that's HEAVILY influenced to believe in the concept of "status"
Mad respect to Somi for admitting and being honest in a industry where you should be humble and thankful even if deep down you don't (on someone and sometimes), and because we all know it's not that easy to admit things that we think are wrong/entitlement being above everyone else or inappropriate.
People don't realize most idols/celebrities/artists are narcissicts to begin with. Add fame and celebrity on top of that and its a one way ticket to a celebrity disease. I respect the idols who are able to admit that they went through this.
For all the people saying wonyoung in the comments, I personally don’t think so. All the people who’ve worked with her or have met her have only said good things about her. She’s never done anything bad or said anything bad, so I don’t think we should just assume so. Sure it may seem like she’s sometimes trying to keep the “celebrity” image (?) but I think that’s just because of all the pressure. Knetz for the most part, with the exception of those who just hate her for no reason, love wonyoung and have really never said anything bad about her behavior as far as I know, and that says something considering knetz nitpick on every little thing. And from what I’ve seen, she seems like a genuinely nice person considering her interactions with the other people around her and her fans, but I can’t be the true judge of that because I don’t personally know her. Even if I’m wrong, she’s still really young and she’ll continue to learn in the future
nah, I've seen many knetizen comments and they ADORE that girl, the ones who created most of the rumors and malicious videos are international fans, but in korea she's very very loved
She doesn't seem to have the disease . Lamo the girl just looks too excited all the time and misses the chance to greet people back . atleast thats what I've noticed seeing her clips .she's either too indulged into whatever is happening around her to miss the people who greeted her or is too awkward and does a tiny bow because she missed the chance
it really makes me sad seeing her get brought up especially for the bowing issue when it was shown in their next music show win that the backlash did get to them and wonyoung was even signaled by yujin to bow lower than usual. although im glad they learned their mistake, it irritates me how people bring it up all the time when it was a one time issue.
tbh, I see this a lot with 4th gen idols especially the recently debuted ones
An example of a very humble group is GOT7 those boys are so genuine and real about everything, that's what make me a fan of them
Got7, BTOB, B.A.P'S yongguk, Zelo, Young jae, Daehyun and Jongup as well.
@@pastelpastry BTS , skz bangchan etc.
I think all jyp groups are humble and kind hearted with good personality
Somi is amazing for acknowledging herself
That last person wasn't celebrity disease he was just trying to tell his fandom that fandom wars are useless. It really is.
That thing that namjoon said I feel like it's a good policy: "There is 100% of success, I'll give 50% half to the ARMY(fans), and the other half, we put 5% each so that 35% and 15% percent to hybe and bighit,... So if it's like a trophy, my percent is like 5% in the corner, so if you constantly realize that your only a little part of this whole journey and that this success in not all yours" - Kim Namjoon. I think this is a good thing to keep in mind when you are popular.
Somi: Every celbrity experiences this once
Some people in the comments : this is why my bias xyz is amazing, they never had it !
☠️🤣
But not every celebrity have it, mostly from very humble background celebrity don't have those such as taeyang, IU, suga etc. IU even bows 90 degree till today to her audience and band members in every concerts or performances, even bows to her hoobaes
BTS are the most famous globally and they still seem genuine and humble. They are still aware that they have haters but they stay loyal to their fans. Even with the way Namjoon speaks I can tell he is being real from his heart
Now I know why I thought Somi did not suit being under JYPE before, we know JYP really promote his artists to be always humble and down to earth kind of person, well at least she realized it by now tho.
BTS V comes to mind
Bro how ?
@@Kimtaehyung-le3nt Because of his arrogant attitude ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
i knew there would be dum/b people like you here. tae is famous and he makes content for his fans, makes music, does performances, concerts, fansigns and through it all he's the most cordial and respectful person ever. but y'all expect for him to sign off his personal time to fans too bc he owes them his fame. also i bet this is about that airport incident. 1) he didn't invite those pos reporters and fans. 2) he got off a long a/ss flight and was probably tired 3) it's not his duty to greet maniacs who wait at airports for hours after getting their hands on illegally bought flight schedules. they should go to a concert or an event he is part of if they want to be greeted so bad bc that's where he is V and he'll greet them with the utmost respect and with the most beautiful smile bc he loves his fans.
Facts!!!!!
@@Ricardo.1999 finally someone said it!!!! Thank you!
You got that right tho. These people who have celebrity disease are people who are not that famous. Hell I barely knew any of the so-called “celebrities” mentioned here who has the celebrity disease.
... Lee Hyori was on top of her game when she caught the "disease". 2003 was her year. She literally won the Daesang at every award show that year, so she actually had the "right" to act like a diva. She got better after Fin.K.L. reunited and she realised where she came from. That's it. If Lee Hyori is "irrelevant", idk what 80% of the industry is.
Baekhyun is incredible humble and it's shown so much. He genuinely loves his fans (even non fans in SK know about his love towards fans) and all the people he works and interacts with only have good things to say about him. He still works on his skills too, takes vocal lessons at night after his schedules because he wants to improve himself, even through he is already the best. I truly admire him.
He's kinda racist though especially towards Kai .
@@Nomnamnomm what that has to do with this topic??? also he apologized to jongin
@@Nomnamnomm fyi the word is colorist. baekhyun and kai are of same race.
I've no regrets stanning this man, he never disappointed me, okay only like once or twice (his past mistakes), but even then, I can tell that he's someone who wants to improve and work on himself. He's never really repeated his past mistakes, I can tell that he's most likely learnt. Only started stanning him this year btw, and he's my ultimate k-pop bias now! 😭
Whatever you said just makes me love him even more, and makes me feel proud that I stan this king! I'm still a little new to him, but I got so soft when I found out how he's always trying his best to interact with us fans on Twitter and UA-cam especially, it makes me happy knowing that he cares so much, and on top of that of course, he's so talented. He only encourages us to do good istg. He's my comfort person now. :"(
(Sorry I just ranted about how much I adore Baek
sunghoon saying others are ugly lmao did he see himself in a mirror? lol
girllll 💀💀
Which sunghoon
@@azirynn the one that is mentioned in the video, not enhypen
also, it’s the fans that sorta contribute this sort of “disease”, when they idolise their idols, and put them on this godlike pedestal. there is no smoke without fire, and I honestly feel that kpop culture can be kinda scary and toxic at times.
also, let’s not claim or pretend who actually know their idols, on whether they’re nice because you *don’t* know them.
yeah. I mean, it’s the fan culture that feeds it. in this comment section alone every other comment is “luckily *my* bias never ever has done anything like because s/he bows and has said this one nice thing this one time on an interview!”
they put these idols on such pedestals and for what/from what? tiny glimpses, curated images, performative personalities. no kidding that if thousands of people will defend you no matter who you are or what you do, it’ll get to your head
fan culture around K-pop is scary as hell
I think if you come from more humble beginnings like IU you’re less likely to get the celebrity disease because you never felt entitled to anything growing up, so as a metaphor you eat until you’re full but if you come from a more fortunate background it’s easier to take food for granted and be greedy.
Agreed
hi, totally agree. could you tell me why iu's begginings are humble?
@@yutisima Yea, Kookielt even has a video about it! Basically her parents got really indebt and sent her and her live with their grandmother they had little to eat only potatoes and she grew up quite poor, she then lived with other family members (still poor) who heavily discouraged her dreams of being a singer and said she couldn’t do it basically she was very poor and now she donates lots of money to charities and looks after her staff and everyone who has helped her get to where she is today. We love IU
I disagree with that. Iu has a very good personality so that’s why she’s like that. Look at Son Naeun, she comes from a wealthy family and has been taken care of since birth but she’s so humble and nice to staff and everyone around her just like Iu.. Same goes for psy, he’s a literal chaebol but takes care of everyone he works with. So it’s not because of the background but because of personality. People who have a good personality to start with will most likely just stay humble throughout their celeb life.
I think it all really depends on how a person is raised that's pretty much it don't you guys think?
I think realising it and getting rid of it is the biggest thing . 💗🌸
Idk the only name i can think of when i watch this video is woonyoung of ive
She shows all the symptoms
It doesn't help that Manager and staff do everything for them like babies
Why do I have a feeling bts V is going through this, like what he is doing now is not just having an attitude, I feel its more like this disease
that would be understandable, and that kind of makes sense
When ??
@@Kimtaehyung-le3nt his whole
personality has changed ever since their songs became way more popular, and since they were first nominated for the grammys. it’s not necessarily bad, he just seems more cocky and upfront now. maybe it’s just confidence but he seems like he really loves himself. that’s not bad, but he seems a little more cold. people say it’s because he’s “getting old”, i think it’s because he’s full of himself lol. love taehyung tho
@@beababoopi I don't think it's true at all that he became too full of himself, he just have that resting face that people generally assume that he don't show emotion so he is cold but that is not at all true ...if you know he is very humble guy he is person who literally took off his headphones to greet and talk to reporters at airport in the last tour to Las Vegas, he the person who always greet with happily big smile on his face army and he is the kind of person who reply and interact with his army mostly , on weverse yk . He just have this calm aura and a resting face which people generally think he became cold as we have been so captivity by his personality when he was young ..but we should know right he is grown now he can't act like a 17 yrs old boy he was , ofcourse he becomes mature. we are just so into taehyung persona as stage v or his 17 yrs old self ...that when we see Kim taehyung the real one, we often think he became cold or quite or some even assume depressed.
And lately people are hating cause he didn't wave or said anything after he returns from Paris as a clip is going viral . But what people don't know is actually there was some problem at airport (get to know this info from Twitter post it describes well there ) that's why he was instructed to straight go to his car . But still he waved to the fans there throw window (this clip is cut and people are assuming he rude)(even reports didn't say anything bad about him) and being the humble and sweet guy he is he apologized on weverse that how he sorry for making everyone wait and didn't meeting them . So I don't see him being anywhere near to being rude or full of attitude or having celebrity disease
@@Kimtaehyung-le3nt well, i never said that it was because he’s older now. that’s very obvious. it’s the way he’s acting. it’s completely different and his persona is different too. i never said it was different in a bad way. i personally like it and i find him more attractive than before. i know that he is a grown man and isn’t 17 like before so he will act more mature. i think he has the celebrity disease, especially since bts has become more popular than ever, being the most popular boy group in the world. i never said he ignored fans. i said that it seems like he has gotten more confidence in himself. it reminds me of the celebrity disease and i can see why, and it’s understandable if he does have it. do not put words in my mouth, i know you love taehyung but i am not hating. everyone is entitled to an opinion so making up things i said it’s invalidating towards me. i respect your opinion so respect mine. all i said was that i can see him having the celebrity disease. with all his fame going around right now it makes sense. there are times when he seems like he has a cocky aura. and i should have worded “full of himself” better. it’s more like he’s aware of himself and how famous he is. i love taehyung, like i said. but i can see him having this. you keep mentioning 17 year old taehyung, and i’m full aware that he isn’t 17 anymore lol. i’m saying there’s more than just “growing up” in his change.
Sunghoon dating the president of his fanclub is peak narcissim, of course he would date someone who's obsessed with him.
I love Mir!! Miss MBLAQ gosh they had so much potential. Im happy you mentioned him
I like how Somi admitted that she had the 'disease', cause usually cocky people who have it would be like "no I dont have it, youre being delusional" etc
I'm gonna say BTS
But honestly I'm scared of people attacking and saying y'all always make it about BTS lol🤣
But there is something that anyone who has worked with BTS, always said: "I see why they became so successful, it's because of their good personalities."
Many people who worked with them or met them just once, praised them for being very humble and nice.
LMFAO NOT Y'ALL STRONGLY DEFENDING Y'ALL IDOLS. That may be the truth, that may be not. No matter how much "real" content your idols present to you or how long you've known them in the industry, YOU DON'T REALLY KNOW THEM. Wake up. They're not your friend or someone even close.
Thats why i always support CL, She's the QUEEN, but always keep humble, she even bougth pizza for her fans in her concert in LONDON.
That's why I stan BTS , seventeen,iu,btob,hyolyin,mamamoo ❤️
bts def has it
Personally, I don’t think so. They’ve always shown major respect to anyone, especially their fans
They really don’t though. They came from dirt and always thank fans 24/7 and always are saying how they literally couldn’t have done it without ARMY. They have donated to so many charities without publicizing it, the only reason people know is news articles. Kim Namjoon literally said that 50% of it is their fans, 35% is them (5% a member) and 15% the company.
And if you know their company, giving them that much credit is definitely humble
V might though
Idk who this sunghoon is but he literally looks like mashed potato and he talks about other. It's a shame that enhypen sunghoon shares his name.
And also the actor Sung Hoon, he shares his name too
Wdym
@@puppyangel4346 yeahhhh i like him a lot
Somis story sounds like shes leaving a lot of stuff out and like a PR statement. I wonder if her "attitude" back then had something to do with JYPE keeping her in trainee hell for so many years just sending her to reality shows.
That’s a good point considering how JYP boasts about how humble their artists are, but if that’s the case I don’t think they’d send her to reality shows considering that’s mostly all personality lmao. But I never thought about that, sometimes I forget that while she’s Black Label, she’s JYP trained
Quite possible too. The fact that she was included in the final line up of Itzy and yet was still cut out. Truly suspicious.

Just a question, IDK much about IVE and Wonyoung but how is she narcissistic?
A genuine question.
@@wajeehasajad8888 Search Ive being disrespectful or something on UA-cam, idk 🤷🏽♀️
What I know is that she is an MC and should’ve known not to cut off Jaemin and at least bow a little but she didn’t even look at them (Lee know and Jaemin), not just her but also her members.
That's why I love idols like Kai from EXO, for example. With his looks, talent and major popularity, that guy could be a total jerk and dickhead, yet he is one of the most humble and level-headed celebs out there. He has a such a genuine naivety, kindness and sweetness to him. I admire that. 👏💞
Is he an angel?😍
yeah, on camera. stop acting like you know him personally
@@shalomgbibel2195 not on camera only. Many PDs and crews have said EXO members are very friendly, polite and easy to work with over the years.
@@shalomgbibel2195 lmao you think we're blind. Many workers who work with idols came out and say that EXO members are one of the most humble person they ever met.
And Not everyone pretend to be kind only infront of camera. You don't know them too so don't act like you know him
@@Dianne._ I never did tho lmao. Anyone of us can be easily fooled. For some, its an act for the cameras, for others its not. We don't know. Nobody can really knwo whats going inside of their minds when the cameras are off. I just don't like it when some ppl are worshipping their faves like they are gods and keep acting like they're best friends or smthn and have known them their whole lives. Its cringe to me. Although I do hope and want to believe that many idols are genuinely nice people, theres also a big chance that they could be jerks irl.
Sung Hoon looking like a basic bish judging those superior to him in visuals. Loooool
Somi doesn’t even have the level of success to be acting disrespectfully
That's why IU was loved by many ppl. And another ones i really like their personalities are Yunho TVXQ and Mark NCT. Also GD (i love how he still respect even his juniors even tho he is much more senior and popular),Sandara (idk but i feel like he always down to earth even now) and maybe Nickhun? (this guy always looks so soft and polite)
It might be normal cases as Somi's said, but still depend on how idols overcome it. If they just let it slide and keep that bad behaviour just like Kang Sunghoon, it might become new habits that hard to remove after years. But if they decided to fix it just like Somi did, they will become more mature and better than before. I would say Somi is so brave and mature at such young age, she think very carefully♥️
2:59 that is always why whenever I see that clip of khyuhyun saying how leeteuk scolded him the way he greets other people before reminds me of how great leeteuk is as a leader. He always cared for his members and their reputations (to avoid that rumor thing)
Since its rare to them being lowkey humble since the beginning. I think catching a mild case of celeb disease is fine. At least someone/their fans would slap them back to reality so they can became a better person. After all you'll know falling is painful after u bleed and bruise, so that will teach u not to fall again.
Lee hyori and somi are indeed a good example of that
BTOB ugly? Dude must need glasses.
BTS are the most humble, genuine idols! They have always been themselves since debut! They are truly amazing!!!!

Bts members are the best example for being humble after global success
I feel like the only way to not get the celebrity disease is the humble yourself no matter how far.you are into it just humble yourself and remember where you come from. This is easier for idols who clawed their way to the top who understand what its like to have everything but also have nothing. I feel like V from BTS is a good example, he lived with his grandparents on a farm away from the city, he didn't even audition and he got in. At first he was though of as staff but was soon realized for his talents by the company who hired him and then bts started to become popular and gained a lot of fans and they were constantly in the spot light. He is definitely a humble person and very caring I mean I could go on about the nice things he has done to and for his other members but strangers as well. I feel like he and the members of BTS are prime examples of how idols should act towards others around their members and just other people in general and there are lots of other idols besides Kim Taehyung and other BTS members but thats all I have to say😅
i definitely think there are people who will be able/have avoided the celebrity disease but as mentioned previously, it’s very rare. it subconsciously happens and for one to overcome it is what’s more admirable
I hate it tbh if it's ur mistake thn apologize instead of Making excuses 🥲💀
I don’t idolise any of them so I don’t really care…lol…they are just like us but highly paid that’s all lol…you can admire them but never obsess over them…
Exo the humblest group ❤️
I might not stan them much , but i have seen thier reality shows and interviews and honestly they're most humble group i have ever seen including seventeen
honestly i understand them, money and fame can get to your head but i hate it when peaple still dont look back and correct themselves ,nothing is wrong with being humble
BTS guys are real angels too.
@cinamonrollcutie 2 I agree with u and... low-key don't (plz don't be offended 😅) well humans are made to make mistakes you've got a point!
I think the best thing for these idols, are strict entertainments (I am not talking about those really bad ones, that seriously mistreat their idols). Like SM. Everytime I see a video talking about rude idols and such, they are always mentioning SM artists and how humble and nice they are.
If you look to other countries and child stars. It has been very rough for many of them, with too little guidance and people not really looking after them. In kpop, with restrictions on what they can and can’t do, they have focus on their work and career, they are taught how to behave and they have guidance. It’s not easy for them to go out and hang with the wrong crowd, party too much and be adored by people that only want them for their fame.
Let’s just agree that fame comes with a price, and it isn’t really healthy to become famous at an early age. Debuting as early as some idols do, can mess with their heads. So hopefully most have people around them, to pull them down from their entitlement, if they get a piece of celebrity decease.
Yeah so far from the many variety shows,realityshows and talkshows ive watch if its being humble and kind groups people seem to always mention at least one or two sm groups or artist.. Suju, Snsd are on top of the list tvxq too especially Uknow, Shinee and RV’s wendy too and many more.
Example of these are when
Snsd and shinee are the only one who didnt judge t-ara when they got a issue of bullying that wasnt true. Suju was the only one who acknowledged and bow to KARD this was mentioned by BM in their podcast. SNSD got an article of themselves for bowing 90 degrees to their hobaes even when they were at the peak of their careers that time the article was release. I also heard that RV took care of a fan on an event even when the camera wasnt rolling. I guess it’s because company like sm humbles you since its full of talented people.
I must say though we can all agree that heechul got a narcissistic sickness in his early years and we all know that he grew out of it. 😂
Irene: 👀
Nah bro, imagine being a grown ass man, bullying/harassing a kid, like dont you have anything better to do??

@@taeyeongivesmewings7520 there's a bunch of staffs exposed that there are very little idols in SM that have manners
K-idols who've been thru such hardship in life before fame are likely the one's who can pull through the barrier. Idols like IU and Dara for example. Fame and money didn't affect them instead they're still working hard until now and stayed humble all these years. Also these two have their fair share of up's and downs when it comes to money. They've learned their lesson in the past and now they're focused and wise when it comes to work and financial stuff. I'm rooting for Lisa as well. 🙏🙌 And I hope everyone makes it.
Honestly I believe idols are entitled and let the money get to their head. They’re just hiding it behind closed doors, plus their fans wouldn’t care either way because they love them so much.
this is why i think its worst for irene to act this way bcus she’s like 30? she’s been an idol for how long and she still feels entitled smh
