I love it whenever they can’t figure out why NO fandom is with them. It couldn’t possibly be the way you have spent the past 10 years dragging every idol and fandom out there, no?
💎ᗯEᒪᑕOᗰE TO ᗪIᗩᗰOᑎᗪ ᑕITY 💎
A thread of Carats being Carats, possibly one of the funniest fandoms out there, with a very real talent for kidnapping and recruitment.
This seems like a perfectly good day to remind everyone GD was collaborating with western artists before the way to America was even discovered. Ya’ll can keep your paving, we were never into road construction to begin with.
I will definitely be checking out all the links and recommendations, but I am a VIP, we have our priorities, so I have to start here 🙌🏻
And yes, this will probably be a thread.
The drama under this is hilarious and since none of the bother to ask why, let me give the unsolicited explanation.
Why I voted for EXO - a thread:
1. Cream Soda is a bop!
2. I like EXO, they make good music.
3. I like EXOLs because most of my interactions with them is fun.
Some K-pop stans have successfully forced themselves to believe an idol has to be either good looking OR talented. Watching them struggle to accept that Mingyu is visually stunning AND an amazing rapper and singer is hilarious.
kim “killer part” mingyu 🥺 he doesn’t need validation from people who won’t bother to search his music 😭 if you’re here for his looks, okay? but don’t speak ill of him as a singer bc i promise you, he’s way more than the “just hot” you wanted him to be
No fandom is perfect, but I am going to go out on a limb here and say that if you ended up on the toxic side of Carats to the point where you had to write an essay on it, you probably did something to deserve it 🤷🏼♀️
OMG?! They won?
Congratulations Carats, you all did amazing! Not only did you work hard, you even managed to wake the VIPs from their dungeon. And SEVENTEEN is a worthy winner, they deserve this!
So go team! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻
Imagine having 2000 followers, and you still have to retweet your own tweets. Seems to me you should be more worried about your own flop allegations. 🤷🏼♀️
Dear VIPs, these cute fanboys and their group (VIPs too) are nominated in the Best Group category at VMAs and voting starts on Sept 3rd via MTV Instagram Story. We'd really appreciate it if you could vote for them and help them win 💛
To be serious for a second, Carats, you have been consistently sweet and respectful towards both us and our favs for a long time. Seeing GD on stage for the first time in 7 years was a huge moment for us, and to share that moment with another group and fandom and have it be so

I would also like to thank this man for singlehanded deciding our long standing war with the dementors on whether or not their favs look up to BB. I did not expect that we would be handed the win like this, but i appreciate it, so thank you sir!
Hello new Carat moots, and welcome 🫶🏻 Just a short introduction, I am a GD biased VIP, who also has a huge soft spot for Mino and Winner. Yes, I have a thing for talent, rappers and artists who write and produce.
I am also currently trying to learn the names of all 13 SVT
Korean media is the most dishonest and disgusting thing I have ever seen. They lie and distort the truth.
Our support HAS TO BE STRONGER FOR YOONGI compared to all these damn liars.
IT WAS A SETUP
CHALLENGE WAS FAKE

I have said this many times before, and I will say this again, a fandom is a representative of their artist. A good fandom does promo for their favs, a bad fandom turns people away.
During the past few years, we have quite a few fandom interactions. And the experience has been
You weirdos need to stop abusing community notes. The article is basically saying “knetz said this”, so unless you can link to something that proves knetz didn’t actually say this, it’s factually correct.
Congratulations to the newly crowned Best group - the achievement is well deserved. All that talent deserves recognition, including awards on a global scale. These boys are amazing!
And congratulations to Carats, the sweetest fandom out there, you did it!✊🏻
Can someone just give them the award? Cause the poor troops are now out here flexing the fact that their faves saw a carpet. The secondhand embarrassment is too much!😫
When GD voluntary went to the police questioning, I was busy being wrapped up in emotions and furious at the whole situation. But now that the pictures and clips from that day is once again all over my TL, it’s easier to notice the subtle details. Like he did the bare face,
Can someone please cast him as a beautiful elf in some kind of fantasy movie? I also need more Jun on my TL, cause it feels like he is still the member I’m the least familiar with. Probably because he wasn’t at Lollapalooza, when I was rewatching every second 5 times 😅
That’s the thing about VIPs.. I have seen this fandom turn down big collaborations or deals because they simply don’t fck with the fandom or artist. You can’t make the vapes do anything they don’t want to do. So when VIPs are actually voting now, it is simply because we enjoy SVT
Remember back in the days when artists would scramble to get out of the way for a BIGBANG cb?
Yeah, our boys still got it.. 🥳😂💛

#WelcomeBackBIGBANG
Joshua was one of the members I noticed the most during Lollapalooza, I just hadn’t mastered the art of connecting name and face yet. And he is one of the people I keep noticing now too. Both vocal and stage presence is consistently so good, and he is so so pretty.
Actually, he did the opposite. He even told Billboard he doesn’t care about Billboard, and he never tried to do any promotion in the west. GD is the poster boy for putting doing his own thing first, and people just organically finding him because he is good. You tried tho!
Exactly I want everyone to know that this man and his company did everything to break into the Western market, did collabs with western artists and yet the ones who broke and established themselves as legends are THE BTS.
I finally got around to checking out Svtflix, and my gosh.. I am absolutely blown away. This is so impressive!
@snowkhoshi
- you deserve a special shoutout, cause you are a queen. As a VIP I am impressed, and as a baby Carat I am insanely grateful. Thank you 🙏🏻
Dear VIPs, these cute fanboys and their group (VIPs too) are nominated in the Best Group category at VMAs and voting starts on Sept 3rd via MTV Instagram Story. We'd really appreciate it if you could vote for them and help them win 💛
Congratulations Carats - you got this!👏🏻
And for round 3, I am crying at the fact that just as i thought I had mastered the way of the vote, they change the format 😭 And I am suddenly back to questioning if I am even doing this right?
Kpop History: First Korean Group to have their Lightsticks was BIGBANG created by G Dragon before they used Glow sticks. First Group to have individual Mics Colors 2NE1. First Korean Group to have Bluetooth technology in their Lightsticks was EXO. First Group on V Live BIGBANG
Unhinged. That never happened. EXOLs did most of the work themselves. Some of us just joined in for support. Let’s not pretend it’s everyone against one for added drama. You all aren’t that important.
I fight Vrmy for attacking BB - i see VIPs and Carats liking.
I fight Vrmy for attacking SVT - I still see VIPs and Carats liking.
This is the kind of wholesome fandom chaos I need in my life. 🫶🏻
I can absolutely recommend voting moots. Not only are SVT super talented, Carats are very good at hitting you like a massive dose of dopamine, leaving your mentions filled with absolute cuteness 🥰 So this whole VMA voting thing is absolutely one of my new favorite K-pop
Annual reminder, cause some of you purple bishes are slow. YG didn’t make BIGBANG, BIGBANG made YG.
You cant claim that BB had big 3 privilege when they were the ones who actually MADE YG part of the big 3.
My Carat life - an update in the ongoing bias issue:
Me - a vip, a hag, a one bias loyalist: ah, I like this group, but THAT one! That will be my bias. I choose you good sir, I am now wonwoorideul.
Carats: actually, that one is part of a set! It’s a buy 1 - take 1 kind of
4. EXO didn’t release one version per day of the bloody year of their song.
5. I have some nice Army moots, but the majority of my interactions with the fandom is a never ending shitstorm.
Let me also add, this narrative of pretending entire fandoms came together is absolutely

Thank you too Carats, it has been a blast!🙏🏻 As far as I am concerned, you are part of my bestie club now. Plus, now that the vote has ended, I plan on sitting down and doing a SVT deep dive, so I suspect you might be stuck with me. Sorry not sorry 🫶🏻
Dear Carats, VIPs, Directioners, Blinks, Shawols, QOTs, Fearnots and many more...Thank you all for voting for SEVENTEEN. Lots of respect to all of you...❤️💎 I am Sorry if I have missed to mention anyone...Please know that you all are in my heart and I wish you all well ❤️❤️💎
Also, let me just remind you all:
- Treasure have more than one VIP, those boys have been honouring and hyping BB for years.
- Remember how Yoshi made us all emotional with his reaction? Cause I do.
- GD himself hung out with them, and gave them advice on a cover performance.
I am actually a bit disappointed Carats, you come at me from all angles, but you somehow forget to attack me with the absolute insanity that is these two combined? I have to fall down rabbit holes on my own now?😭
I’m telling you all, Carat city is straight up hazardous! One moment you are minding your business, pretending to a productive human, the next you are actually DEAD, cause you stumbled across this and had a massive fangirl stroke 💀
AND NOT EVEN A SINGLE WARNING SIGN IN SIGHT!
Let me also say I have finally unlocked all 13 names. And I am actually doing this without cheating, so yell at me if something is wrong.

Non-VIP moots, if you are wondering what’s going on, T.O.P was announced as part of the Squid game cast yesterday. Fast forward to today, and there are hundreds of slanderous articles and comments. All over his weed case from years ago, that he has apologized for repeatedly. So
Final thoughts, in an era where certain fandoms try to push a narrative about how idols don’t really need to be good vocals, cause it’s suddenly all about aesthetics, dance, vibes and TikTok likes, this proves what I have been saying all along. The best groups have both,
@treasuremembers
I hope you guys know that you are pretty much building one of the sweetest fandoms in kpop. Teumes being amazing representatives make it so easy for the rest of us to cheer you on too. So keep up the good work, both Treasure and Teumes 🫶🏻💛 💎
With all due respect VIPs, LISTEN TO HIM! Let him do what is right for him. We can all hope he one day feels differently, but that day is not today, and we need to respect his wish. Enough already!
I - what?! Is this going to be a daily thing now? Every day I stumble across something new to blow my mind?😭 Cause this is so freaking GOOD! The cute rock vibe literally gives me life!
