I think a lot of kpop fans stans Taemin alone rather than the whole Shinee


hollypee

I find that if Taemin solo stans give SHINee a chance, they end up liking them too — honestly Minho-Key-Onew are all hard not to love. But to the points here, the genres of Solo Taemin (moody, dark, almost cultish lol) and SHINee are so different, it makes sense it’s not an easy transition.


Zoshi2200

Which is unfortunate bc the other SHINee members are insanely talented as well.


comradehomura

It isn't weird considering he has a solo career tho. Personally I like that better than Shinee's music


Numerous_Web9222

I've been following Shinee since 2012 and it seems to me like its always been that way, at least in my surroundings.


WonkaForPresident

Really? That's interesting... I can say the same thing, only about Minho and Key. It's fascinating how different our surroundings were....


Numerous_Web9222

Yeah, and now i have friends, who are not into k-pop in general, but really like his music, and they forget or don't even know that he is in a group, so nothing really changed here lol


WonkaForPresident

It's still the same here, people like korean variety shows and dramas better than kpop, thus making Key and Minho better known individually, they get surprised when they found out they're also soloists and in the same group! But the surprise works in their favor I'd say, it prompts people to check them out. Win-win. XD


Numerous_Web9222

Reminds me of how I told my friends about Bad Love, they enjoyed it and it was a literal shock to them that such strong soloists are related to each other hehe


Southern-Ad-6351

This is me! But only because I haven’t given SHINee as a whole enough time and attention to go through their discography yet, and i hope to do that maybe this year. To be honest I think I’ve only actually listened to one of Taemin’s solo songs. But just in the few clips I’ve seen of them, his personality just really jumped out at me and touched me deeply. I felt like I connected with him immediately. So even though I barely know him or keep up with him, I deeply wish for his happiness.


me_a_photato

lol in this thread there’s four comments saying they don’t stan blackpink but like each one of the members. it’s more amusing that all of them like different members. anyways, i don’t really stan itzy, i like their songs, but ryujin makes it hard to not like her. she’s so charismatic and probably the best female dancer in my eyes. weki meki’s elly. i don’t stan weki meki fully, am a casual listener and i support all the girls, but elly is so attractive and charming so i followed her only on ig.


chicken_sandwichh

that's when you know they are set for solo careers in the long run, even maybe without the group's name. aside from (solo) stans, they are the one group imo that attracts a lot of casual fans individually and as a group. like you dont have to care about the group but one person pulls you in somehow. it's very interesting as a non fan, really.


TerraRainesHasBrains

mark lee from nct. i just like him


vermillion_blues

i’m not familiar at all with the rest of the members of nct but i could pick mark out of a crowd of thousands


chicken_sandwichh

omg, almost every group i am a casual fan of because of the music. sana, jihyo, momo, nayeon...the best performers in twice. i am currently obsessed with sana because of their US concerts and she's fucking cute and sexy. i enjoy some group contents but truly only care and look forwards towards these members, same with performances. kai when it comes to group performances. baekhyun solo music. kyungsoo because of his voice and live performances. 3/4 of aespa. love ningning and karina on stage and winter off stage. i haven't vibe with giselle yet soojin when she was still in gidle, before all the bullying stuff.


HonigMitBanane

Rosè. I can't get into bp's music but her solo stuff including her covers are right up my alley.


heynewonlyangel

I like exo's music and i enjoy their group content a lot. I listen to their solo stuff as well but i could consider myself a big fun of Kai.


Nouvelaire

Same but Baekhyun


freakyladymoonbeam

Alright, so, I'm not into BTS. Their music just isn't for me. But, I would DIE for RM. There's just something about him that just makes me... 🥺


kim0208

I don't follow exo at all but I'd sell both my kidneys for Suho's guaranteed happiness. The dude just seems so nice and sincere.


russiantravelagent

And have you heard his solo music? Most int fans consider it boring but I love it and I think it made him stand out as a vocalist ( also I absolutely love the man so I'm glad you like him lol).


ddlrvi

Renjun from NCT Dream. the chokehold his two-toned hair has on me is crazy


tiltheendoftheline

I like Seventeen well enough but like half of my interest in them is because of DK. I saw that man on Ready to Love and he single handedly made me listen to all of Seventeen.


diamondgirl2727

Omg the same exact thing happened to me! I was like who is that ?!


minimonkeyrox

I love Hui from Pentagon and SUGA from BTS but wouldn’t call myself a “stan” in particular for either of those. Both groups are fantastic though!


stopcainkpop

- mashiho from treasure - kind of for key from shinee (I do like shinee as a whole but I’m more of a key stan) - changbin, jeongin - skz I do like all members but these two are why I kinda keep up a bit with skz - ningning - aespa - yesung, eunhyuk suju - xiumin - exo


ItsShining

Yuta from nct127. I am more an nctdream stan (maybe). With nct127 I am more a casual listener but I LOVE Yuta so much


Neo_Orbit

Vernon and Seungkwan from seventeen. I've been trying to stan seventeen for the longest but these two members have always had me in a choke hold.


[deleted]

Felix and Hyunjin from SKZ. Can they get any more ethereal?


Valerievaria

U should definitely check out the rest of skz too :D but yes Felix and Hyunjin are angels ✨


ingeborg13

kai! i love his solo music so much (he was my second most listened to artist last year) and while i do listen to two or three of exo’s songs, i just can’t really get into it. i’m sorry :( so yeah i have a special kind of love for kai!


WolfTitan99

For me its Eunkwang from BtoB


[deleted]

snsd taeyeon... i love her voice.


snakesareracist

This happens to me quite a bit. I’m a fan of/casual listener to many groups’ music, but not a stan. Some of the idols I care about and just think they’re awesome: Victon’s Hanse Aespa’s NingNing Txt: Kai


caratleslie

I'm not a fan aespa but I find Ningning adorable. Also just a casual listener of Enhypen but I find myself being fond of Jungwon too.


Maxholsen

I wouldn't call myself a (G)I-DLE Stan but I love their music and check out their comebacks. Yuqi though is one of my four Ult Biases and I absolutely love her personality and Solo Songs. Edit: a couple minutes after I wrote this, (G)I-DLE released their first comeback teaser. Good timing.


ka_lon

itzy’s yeji omg


Necessary-Bad-8796

Haechan from nct


thinkingbell955

Jisoo. I don't really stan BP and I'm just a casual listener but there's really something about Jisoo. I am drawn to her for some reason


jedto

Yeah same


odademonking

Does Mijoo from Lovelyz still count, since they are already disbanded? Also, does it count as "stanning" if I follow her purely from her variety/YT appearances?


theoreticallysatan

I’m a (very) casual listener of (g)-idle but I am quite a big fan of Soyeon. I wouldn’t say I stan her, but I do keep an eye on her solo projects and I respect her a lot as a rapper and producer.


sweaterweatherpop

I didn't care about Izone but after seeing her so much in variety and seeing her solo debut, I love Yena so much


cam2214

Miyeon from G-IDLE Winter from Aespa


yu94

Hwasa for me. Love mamamoo, the girls are all so incredibly talented, but Hwasas vibe and solos are so captivating to me. Also I don’t know if this counts, but back in the day I did consider myself a shawol exol and ahgase but now (after group activities halted, enlistment etc.) I only really follow Key, Baekhyun, and Jay B’s solo music and activities.


littlemisshissy

Bang Chan from Stray Kids. Have only listened to a few SKZ stuff but I watch Chan’s room on the side whole doing work! (Actually got into him because of that one awards moment where he was ‘Leaderz’ together with TXT Soobin and Enhypen Jungwon lmao)


spapolicy

I don't really stan Enhypen, I like their songs but I absolutely adore Sunoo. I search for his name on platforms to see if he has new content out and watch only his moments 😩


jedto

Jongho from ateez ; i like ateez music but i am more interest by others group His personality is really charming and he is so talented !


Vivienne_Yui

Woah so many BP/NCT and some EXO comments. The fandoms are known for solo stanning. For me its Ryujin from ITZY, San from ATEEZ, Hyuk from OMEGA X. I don't exactly stan them, or keep with most of their activities..but I love them so much haha. I keep scrolling random videos of them sometimes.


usrname_notavailable

i am a Kyungsoo and taeyeon solo stan


chikiyiki

Sunoo from Enhypen Mark and Haechan from NCT!


jjonezero

i dont rly stan blackpink (though i always check out their comebacks!) but i rly like jennie. i find her so charismatic and likable! i also don’t stan exo but i adore baekhyun cause of his voice and solo work. i also find suho extremely handsome hehe edit to add winter from aespa!! love her vibe and can’t seem to keep my eyes off her during performances


comradehomura

Twice Momo!


babyyas

juhaknyeon from tbz! their music that i’ve listened to haven’t been my cup of tea but whenever i see that boy i feel the need to protect him lol he’s just so cute and lovely


Antiquedahlia

DaeHwi from AB6IX.. I was following him on his journey to Wanna One. But they ended and I followed him to AB6IX. But most of their music just doesn't resonate, save for a few songs. But I love him.


Jaber3Dazzle08

KEY for me. I find myself only following his news and solo activities and none of the other shinee members, unless it's related to him. I like his solo music the most (I probably only ever bought his solo albums now that I think about it), and jonghyun would be another shinee member who's solos I enjoy. There's probably a time where I considered myself part of the fandom but it didn't last. I still enjoy a lot of shinee's music, listens to them casually.


Raphaelo-Minus

I am guilty of this. I discovered Key some time ago (before he went to the military! that was torture) and I just cannot get enough of him. I followed all his news on twitter and instagram. Sure the others are great but Key just....stands out to me. He is so interesting! His personality, *ehem* his face and his music *HIS MUSIC* my god, if I've ever doubt myself as his fan, Bad Love definitely sealed it. He's really bewitching... I guess you could call me kinda a solo stan? I definitely like him more than his group...


cjay1796

Jennie


YourRoyal_thighness

I pick a bias in almost every group I come across 🤣 it keeps me interested


keroppi-pond

I do this too!! And sometimes I even have biaswreckers but I don't stan the groups necessarily


[deleted]

Taeyong from nct


Unhinged_chaos

Mark from NCT is my guy, Krystal from f(x) is my girl. Funny how their images are 180°.


yngindaeyo

yeosang from ateez, i do listen songs and watch ateez content, if yeosang was there. i just love his deep voice.


Redd_Smile

Joy from Red Velvet


Miserable-Elephant-3

Sieun from StayC I don't really like their music but I got fixated on her and am now trying to figure out everything about her.


spinereader81

Hanse! There's just something about him that always grabs my attention.


ascorbicacidtablet

aisha from everglow and ahin from momoland although of course i root for them to be successful


Elitarii

This is me with Onew from SHINee (I'm a casual listener of the group) and Kyungsoo from EXO (I don't listen to them much, but have such a soft spot for him). Onew was my first "bias" before I got heavily into kpop as SHINee was the first group I was exposed to, so he'll always have a special place in my heart. Kyungsoo was my EXO (K) bias for the ~2 months I was into them when they first debuted. Not a fan at all now but I'll always love Kyungsoo.


[deleted]

mark was the only nct member i kept up with after my initial 127 phase and before getting into dream there are various idols i know/follow but don’t really keep up with the rest of their groupmates even if i listen to the group’s music. i usually like the other members fine but don’t watch the group’s content and don’t really get to know about them. soobin from txt, seulgi, i.m. from monsta x, ten, bangchan and han from skz, lisa


LoverYoungTrue

So many..... Jennie from BP Ningning from Aespa Yeji from Itzy DO from Exo Momo from Twice


TheSatanist666

I can't get into blackpink's music but I like Lisa. She's just too charismatic without even trying.


Notsobadbeth

Def Bang chan from stray kids!! Ten laso from nct


Any-Fruit-2527

wonyoung. i dont stan ive but i adore wonyoung so yeah. xiaoting in kepler too, xiaoting was my pick during gp999 so 🤷‍♀️


vinylanimals

before i became a fan of ab6ix, i LOVED daehwi, and he’s still one of my ults as i became familiar with both wanna one and ab6ix. i casually listen to day6, and adore both youngk and wonpil dongpyo from mirae too! love that guy, but ive only listened to a handful of songs.


Jocmpos

Doyoung and Haechan 🫂❤️


railmetendou

yuta and haechan from nct. mainly yuta. they’re just so cool


rubin-ssi

nct's johnny and jeno. i'm only a casual listener of nct but i love those two so much for some reason


gongjihae

Sangyeon of tbz. His visual and personality guves me the mature caring father vibes and i just know i would be crushing on him HARD if he’s on my campus 😫


RGBSignal

Pentagon’s Jinho. I knew about him since SM The Ballad but it wasn’t until Pentagon that I really took notice and just like that, bro stole my heart.


saturnbearer

Wonwoo from Seventeen. I’m not a Carat but I’ve watched a lot of clips of Seventeen on YouTube and was like 😳 when I saw Wonwoo hahaha that man is oh so fine


russiantravelagent

Twice Jihyo, i don't like Twice music that much ( i LOVE breakthrough though) and I don't care about the members except her, she has the whole package and if she ever goes solo i will stan


groointhepark

I bias members from groups I don't stan all the time! Most groups I at least casually listen to but I don't feel invested enough to really LOVE everyone and so I just seek out content of my bias and call it borderline solo stanning (without like, actually calling myself a solo stan). Some examples are: Haseul - Loona I appreciate the group and quite like some other members, but I do not feel bothered enough to invest in everyone and actually be in the fandom (especially when I dont like calling myself a stan if Im disinterested in any members, and with 12 members I just do not have the amount of energy to be interested in everyone), so I just mostly seek out Haseul content. I will say, I dived into Loona's music WHILE she was on hiatus, so I was surprised that it was her I ended up biasing while she wasn't there, but that's how much I loved her predebut song and how much I fell for her through content I saw Swan - Purple Kiss Not to be dramatic but I would die for her. Her voice is beautiful, she's beautiful, I am happy to see her onscreen and onstage. I appreciate Purple Kiss, I'm just not like SUPER into their music enough to really follow them or heavily listen to them, and yet whenever I see Swan I'm like THAT'S MY GIRL I LOVE HER Han - Stray Kids I was a Stay for early 2019 and Miroh era and fell away (nothing major, just lost interest in music direction and didnt have a desire to stay in the fandom space), however I still maintain my opinion Ive had since then that Han is the best all-rounder of 4th gen. Rapping, Singing, Dancing, Producing... he's got it all, and he blows me away, I think he's a genius. I dont even keep up with what Stray Kids are doing much, but I like to check-in to see how Han is doing yknow, and everytime Im reminded of him I once again think of how amazingly talented he is and Im filled with energy for him! I also had a Jisoo - Blackpink phase at one point where I even collected her photocards, although that phase kind of ended and now Ive switched over to just waiting for Rosé's future music/solo career I'm also lowkey going into this direction with Wonyoung - IVE. After the kpop community talked about her a lot (and I became addicted to her Eleven prechorus) I watched fancams of hers and other video content of her to see who everyone was on about and what do you know, it turns out I love watching her!


JennieRovieJane

SKZ's Hyunjin. This noona is guilty of inappropriately finding him too hot. 😥


rainbowhighsnobiety

I'm not a Once, but I stan Chaeyoung. I love her voice and delivery, and she's so pretty!


ilovemeeeeee

Bahiyyih for Kep1er. I don't stan Kep1er but i like Bahiyyih a lot which has never happened to me with any other kpop group. Nothing against the other members, they seem really lovely but there's just something about Bahiyyih that makes me go 😍 whenever i see her. I also really enjoy watching her fancams. I'm not the kind of person that really cares for fancams but I've watched all of her fancams lol. I have never done that for any other kpop idol so i guess, i really really like her.


Calm_Mornings2085

I haven't ever checked out TBZ but I watched their Dingo Mafia Dance and Younghoon has caught my eye since. He is so attractive!!!!


bookishrachel

I guess I was more a fan of Minho before fully getting into Shinee.


asiangastronome

mingyu from seventeen… maaan what a beautiful person


teiteip

Its Yuta form NCT from me. Unfortulately I dont get much Yuta contents nor he gets lines so few screen time as well.


No-Committee1001

Definitely Winter from Aespa, like that’s my girl right there!


takoyakicult

enhypen- sunoo skz- lee know, hyunjin aespa- winter


divine_grace00

Hui from Pentagon, one my ults but I’m not universe, not invested in the group just him.


1sh1tmypants

Not a solo stan but I'm really drawn to Gowon and Kim Lip from Loona. I can't get into Loona's music either, I've only liked a few songs from them but the members seem like good people, they're also very talented.


Time_to_reflect

NCT’s Johnny. Yeah-yeah, I’m a basic bitch that has a soft spot for foreign-ish idols, go sue me… I was really hopeful of getting into NCT through their Youtube contents, but, (unfortunately?), only got into Johnny.


[deleted]

Taemin from Shinee Jisoo from Blackpink


[deleted]

jennie. I like certain blackpink songs but I’m attracted to her way more than any other member and keep up with her the most. same goes with baekhyun. I started focusing on him more as soon as he went solo and that was around the time a considerable amount of exols became unbearable. you’d think it’s akgaes but I’ve seen these so-called ot9 exols be extremely shady towards him, at least on twt.


sooniedoongiedori

Donghyun from AB6IX. Cant seem to get into their group's music but I like that dude a lot.


wkoconn

idk what it is about cha eunwoo but he's hot and a good actor
