*"There's different vocabulary for men and women in the industry, a MAN can react but a women can only overreact"* -Taylor Swift

Being a female idol is hard but still they don't get the respect they deserve 😔

suga: is savage, comments on the members people: omg he’s so badass🔥🔥🔥 jennie: is savage, comments on the members people: she’s so fucking rude

Not just being an idol female is hard but being a woman itself is already hard and yet there’s people who say that being a female/female idol is easy………this thing need to stop!!!!!like seriously

They worked hard for 24/7 and i hope they would be treat better......

Jennie is still an example of how stans can harass and hate a female idol for just existing and breathing She's hated for showing too much skin Hated for dating while the male idols she dated don't get the same hate She's called the "princess" of yge She got hated so much during her solo debut Jennie deserves so much better 😥💓

What is even sadder is that, almost women are the ones who judge female idols

POPULAR OPINION: - Let them date! - Let them be proud of their different nationalities! - let them EAT - let them rest their faces! (smiling, make up etc) - lastly BETTER PROTECTION FOR OUR GIRLS AND BOYS

"if an artist is single, they become more attractive to audiences" *but i start to stan hyuna after her dating news with dawn and i think she is more attractive especially after she's dating.*

why can't the public let female idols breathe . all the women in kpop are queens and they deserve a lot more . 😥😥😥

Also : When female idols appear with bruises, people say that they are romanticizing abuse but when a male idol does it’s hot and original (???!!?!)

Key word: MADE. They aren't asked to do these things, they are MADE to do them. Even if they don't want to 😔

Joy is literally ALWAY being given clothes that’re waaay too short. She looks so uncomfortable on a lot of her outfits. Do you know what’s more appealing than someone in a “revealing” outfit? Someone who’s confident in what they’re wearing. If they’re constantly readjusting their outfits or shivering because they’re freezing, that just makes me feel their discomfort. Let idols have more of a say in what they wear.

2:13 when male idols sweats , they finds it attractive , when females idols does that ..haters will come for them for sweating 💀

this don't apply to female idols as well. we fight and work hard for woman's rights and finally got ourselves a freedom back in the day. yet, ironically, there still mysogynistic/sexist-ish treatment to woman still can be found until today.

Idk if anyone noticed how when a dating scandal happens the female gets the most hate ( not saying the male doesn't but compared to the female they have less hate)

These girls are talented hardworking young women these companies need to be respected and treated better they are Human beings who have feelings and emotions. These companies also have to protect these girls better from mean and Malicious comments they are getting on social media

also when sulli said that she wanna be a mother, everyone kept putting so much of hate on her and said that she is sexualizing that she decided to su!c!de but when rm said that he wanna be a father, he was praised by everyone...

Companies be like: Imma pretend I didn’t see that.

*that's why don't call a female kpop idol lazy*

Me: I wanna be a a kpop idol Also me after watching this video: nope nope nope, I'm good

Feel bad for all of them especially Jennie, who got a lot of hate even when she's predebut just because she's not smiling 24/7. She's can't smile all the time but sadly most of hate she get because of that.

Imagine going thru all that with painful period cramps and the uncomfortable feeling of wearing a pad. Some females have to take meds to stop their periods for certain activities which is very bad for their health

I will never forgive people for shitting on Yeri when she cried during that award ceremony. The amount of hate she got for literally just being upset is appalling.

For some reason, some people are still stuck in 70's to 80's and think that boys deserve more than girls

Female idols also deserve everything in our sociery no one support women i hope they treat female idol better

These female idols should be really praised for how hard they work. ✨

Seriously what is it with female kpop idols being mistreated these amazing and talented woman work so hard to give us great music but in return they get horrible things they don't deserve this.

as a young MALE stan. i hate the fact that a lot of men sexualize and harass female idols. its obviously offensive to thousands of people, including themselves and other male idols. like, seriously, show them comfort and support. they go through literal hell just to get treated like this?! i think its time we need to legitimately start speaking up about this gross problem and try to put a stop to this as* treatment towards female idols (sounds cringe i know, let me have my life) if you find something on the internet thats sexualizing female idols or male idols, please find a way to report it. please continue to show support to female idols if they dont have “porcelain white” skin, a thigh gap, a slim build or if they dont meet your expectations.

4:57 Irene has spoke out and confronted the stylist many times about the uncomfortable clothes but the stylist didn't listen and now she's fired (as she should be)

Also, in a show during kokobop era exo’s kai had the audacity to criticize female idols, he said that female idols’ dances are basic and easy and kept comparing between boy groups’ dances” and girl groups, did he forget about the heels? The uncomfortable clothes? The heavy accessories? The extreme diets? The fckn so called period? Also, some women have conditions which make their period literally hell. When I get mine I can’t even stand up! This abuse needs to stop and people should realize female idols are humans Edit: I almost forgot sullyeon’s case, she got criticized for her strong gaze on stage 💀

Being a female is hard no matter what industry. Even as a model where women supposedly rule. I support female idols and admire them for fighting current battles by chipping around at injustice for future generations of females.

The fact that some people who shame female idols are FEMALES THEMSELVES like girl my best friend used to be a hater of all female idols, when I found out I had to end our friendship because as a multi group stan, I respect all idols, no matter the gender.

I love how Hwasa just flipped the bird on Korean beauty standards: I don't need to fit your standards, I AM my own beauty standard. Another thing that women in kpop (or any celebrity status) gets that men don't: being a target of hate. It's cool to hate on Taylor Swift for the memes. Mamamoo, Red Velvet, Black Pink, Aespa... they get hate for just existing! You don't see that happen with male idols.

The fact that as women we have to ask to be treated equally disgusts me Thank you so much for this video!!!

i don't smile a lot and sometimes my mom complains that i should but i can't imagine half the population HATING on me for it and if they're dating how does it affect you?? if anything dating someone they genuinely makes them happier and maybe they're songs will really show that. ok and periods. like i can't stress this enough. they say the pain you get on your period is equivalent to that of heart attacks. so these idols are are being forced to perform while they're bleeding (which is really uncomfortable) and wearing such clothes and those stupid 'fans' are sitting at home eating three bags of potato chips hating on them? it's easy to say "no offence or anything.." and then complain but it's not easy to go out on stage and sing beautifully and dance so well while wearing clothes that're short asf while being on your period like plz stop i really love and respect all of them for being so strong.

People say: Male Idols look hot when they sweat and Female Idols look ugly. Jisoo's gorgeous, stunning sweat: thats a pity.

What really upsets me is that I have a few K-pop friends who prefer the boy groups over girl groups which is fine but then they judge the female idols in groups for how they look and their weight. Which is messed up. Like one of my friends once said they hated Aespa because of Ningning (apparently she was ugly but she really isnt- ) so i told them how messed up it is and the only response I got was "Whatever, their just there to be judged anyway" Wtf!!?!?

The whole short dress situation is to make the idol look shorter because, unfortunately, a large majority of MEN don't always find taller women attractive. So you'll notice that with Joy, Rosé, Lisa, and Aisha, they usually give them smaller length dresses that reveal way too much but it's simply so they look as tall as they shorter members. I hate the fact that they do that to them tho. Like pants are awesome too

I complain about my period pains but I have the choice to stay an rest at home. Some of these idols have to *perform* and in short outfits might I add

I also really hate it when people told Rosé and Ryujin to button thier shirt let them wear what they want to wear

I hope this changes and we never forget that female idols just deserves respect, love and recognition. - Sana

I feel so bad for them😯😔😔

This is truly sickening sad and an absolute nightmare; i feel so sad for all female idols that constantly endure the painful aftermath of these not only company ceos but male idols and fans too; i hope they get the support and respect they deserve

Society's misogyny is extremely reflected in the kpop industry

Shindong had the nerve to say that while he looks like ……… that

4:46 this scared the shit outta me

It's not only the industry is toxic but the whole society is

Only after Sulli passed, I took her advice about bras! She is so right. Now when I wear them it feels restrictive to the point breathing is uncomfortable. Seeing Hwasa and even Miley Cyrus makes me less worried about how I'm perceived

I am also very angry at the fact that many times male idols say rude shit to female idols and are forgiven for it. An example is when Shindong said that it's ok for men to be fat but when women are it isn't. Also Kyuhyun made Goo Hara cry in a radio show. And let's not forget all of the other times when sexual harrasment towards female idols was considered funny/ laughed at. (Example: Jyp's creepy videos and attitude also the fact that Jyp only started getting canceled because of the situation with Got7 when Jyp has been creepy and problematic for YEARS and no one said anything) also, the fact that Ailee's carreer was almost over because her ex decided to leak her nudes. How come the public decided to try and cancel her when it was her ex boyfriend who sould've faced the consequences and possibly face the law!!! I also want to mention how Taeyeon has been through so much, including when she got death threats and a bunch of hate for dating Baekhyun. Like, she isn't the only one in the relationship, he is also dating (not that I think he should've also gotten hate for it, but that only she got hate for it, I think that no one should get hate for dating). The list of these instances is so long, but I just felt like mentioning some. Insteaf of bashing female idols for not being puppets, let's support them and understand all of the aditional struggles they go through just for being women. Strong queens🛐

This video needs to blow up! Im sharing rn

it disgusts me so much they absolutely need support , hugs :(((

I literally just saw a video before this about how female idols have easy choreos rather than male idols. Like WTF they have equally endured pain by wearing heals and female groups have pretty hard choreos. I really hope they get more support and love from everyone. EQUALITY IS ALSO A MUST. They're all hardworking and gorg women

That's just so sad. These double standards need to STOP

Let's not forget they are also human beings, they breathe and have a life to live like all of us.. treating them like this is just double standards.. you're the one who doesn't get the right to live and say anything cause you don't know what they go through. You are no one to decide what they must do cause they aren't kids but adults who can also make their own decisions. (P.S it's illegal cause you are taking their birth rights)

Jennie:- breathing- People:- omg! She is so lazy

Some men have bigger boots than some women and then they say that women should wear bras. 🙄

I understand that being an idol is really difficult but what female idols go through in general is so so wrong. i saw a comment saying ‘it’s okay for these girls to get hate’. why? reminds me of yeri getting hate for crying. that is just so sickening. being a female idol is so so difficult. I wish things change that man shin dong! his comment really bothers me. that is something that deserved backlash

Ladies, you gotta stand together and say enough. You are human beings not just a product are a marketing item. I am sure those millions aren’t easy to make but somewhere no is needed.

Some of female idol haters comes from fangirls, because they think the idol will still their OPPA🥀 OBSESSED 💀

Or the thing that people expect girl groups to do difficult choreos like boy groups but wearing heels, perfect hair and not even a single drop of sweat. I understand sometimes boy group's choreos look harder but they can sweat and people would say they look manly and handsome, while if female idols sweat people would say they look gross. SO the people that says that boys choreos are harder trying to shame girl groups, just shut up, they are doing pretty good choreos with heels and looking perfect all the performance

“Hey guy’s, you are now not allowed to date so the fans will like you more because they think they will be able to get you” Is this what they sound like?

I don't stan gg or any female soloist but the fact that they all go through this is just so hard honestly, These are the things we know but who knows what happens behind the closed doors, How much more they have to go through every single day. Beaing a female is hard itself and then female idols have to go through these mistreatment, It's honestly fcked up.

Yaa when I hear this my blood burns my skin how could the be treated like that

It's already hard to be a woman. And as a female idol …

The double standards are disgusting. I love a lot of groups and it really hurts seeing female idols being used as punching bags by the media.

I really want to thank KOOKIELIT for making such an INFORMATIVE video about something that all kpop fans notice but are mostly ignored. Like seriously, why is it always that female Kpop Idols find themselves in trouble for things that male kpop idols are at times even praised for. i wish all this can change in the coming future. 😔😔😔😔😔

Is there any way that someone could make a change? That this could stop? Any way I could reach out and put an end to this? It’s sad, and I can’t stand sitting here knowing this is happen ending without doing anything I want to do something to help.. anything… but I don’t know what to do.

This video needs to go viral...

keep in mind, female idols also have to deal with periods. that’s bad enough on it’s own, but imagine going through that with their kind of schedule…

3:21 I think you accidentally put sohye from AOA it should be Sohye from ioi

What your forgetting is that mistreatment of female idols come from their own group mates also... I've seen many instances where idols treated their group members just as bad as netizens and bosses. Let's not even talk about the disgusting comments some female idols get if their skin tone is darker than the others...Hyolyn is a prime example of mistreatment because of her skin tone.

I personally wish for ppl to treat female idols or female in general better

This is the thing i hate about kpop the MOST. Even been a in kpop for 3 years now still i see people pointing fingers at female idols for doing something but praising male idol for doing the same thing And also with tattoos When male idols show their tattoos people praise them for their beautiful body art and when females do the same they get hate for being disrespectful Like what ? Why ?

This makes me so sad and sympathetic for them. I wish we can change this 😔 its so sad to hear about all this.

PREACH QUEEN 👑!! Just finished watching vid and I absolutely loved it! GIRLS SUPPORTING GIRLS!!

Don’t forget about Hwasa (probably spelt that wrong) she gets a lot of hate for being “inappropriate “ Because she wears outfits people don’t like .She is also very brave because she knows how many creeps there are that pay attention to unpleasant parts of body’s . 👑She can wear what she wants it’s her body !

It breaks my heart how female idols have to be treated like this THEY DESERVE BETTER TREATMENT

omg...thanks for sharing i will share and make sure everyone will see this video thanks

You are just speaking facts. I strongly agree that people need to appreciate female idols hardwork.

Fr tho, being a female K-pop idol is hard. They deserve respect just like male idols, they should be able to do what they want to do and stop getting malicious comments for stupid little things. Remember they want to live a life like everyone and they were born as humans not robots but the stigma is everywhere smh.

I want one, atleast ONE female idol and a male one to open up and be arrogant this time about the double standards and inequality. There would be some backlash, but its better to pull it out from the roots. Agreed?

Amazing video and thank you for covering cuch a hard topic, 3:20 it's Sohye from I.O.I

Ik some female idols love to show off their some skin but Some female idols don't wanna show off their skin but still company forces them to wear short clothes and they feel insecure :/ I wanna say that company shops keep some choices of the idol and then stylish should decide the dresses according to the song/concert

Krystal and irene are just *INTROVERTED* that's all Be sure them both are so nice people

I huge fan of hyunA cuz that girls broke every damn rule in Kpop (etc dating, clothing, social media etc) and she doesn't gave a single Fs, I wish her all the best

It’s horrible. Some female idols (i don’t know the name of the girlgroup) were trainees for almost 6 years,and then they had they’re debut. FOR 24 HOURS!!!!!!!.then they got disbanded and spendet 6 years of life in a world full of diets and stress. WTF, this is the fuck sad

Kind of stupid how female idols are attacked for showing skin but then are forced to freeze their a$$ off, wearing revealing clothes when it’s cold

FYI, the original ice princess is Jessica Jung, former member of Girls' Generation and sister of Krystal Jung. She used to receive so much hate for her "icy" stare but that is her natural look. Sad that female idols get so much hate for literally existing.

let’s respect women in general period.

Yes... In this case they only need to serve one thing.. "Respect"

i don’t think the hardships of male idols should be swept over the rug, but this video proves a damn good point. there’s way too many double standards and female idols are much more degraded and scrutinized under the public

It pains me to see the constant mistreatment and marginalization of female idols. I have so much respect for their hard work and especially towards IU, who never forgets the hardship of her youth and gives back to her community.

Thank you for this video!Saying the truth to the public!🍭💕

thank u for speaking up

Heartbreaking.

to sum up this whole video : these idols deserve the world

It’s makes it even more saddening is that all the hate comes from majority female stans woman are always stepped on especially by each other

Please, if you hate on any female or male idols stop. It’s mentally and physically draining them..I thought it was bad but I didn’t know that it was THIS bad. Some faint, have anxiety attacks, etc. if you hate them then try being a idol. You’ll lose sleep, get millions of hate, and be expected to be perfect. It’s painful and almost traumatising as you don’t get enough food, etc. so please don’t just hate it’s just painful for them

4:46 what kind of sound effect was that my soul left my body
