So they are wrong but it's not because the translator isn't proficient or doesn't understand context. And of course certain things like puns and idioms are abandoned completely because they can't be explained in 5 seconds.

But apparently, this is intentional. There are rules with subtitles about how many words can be on screen and how many seconds they can be on screen for. So translators are taught to lose some integrity in the translation in order to fit these rules. For ease of reading I suppose.

This is the worst thing I've ever seen in my life.

So I believed santa was magic but still knew my parents paid for the gifts out of their own pockets absjaj less magic but!!! Important bc I was more grateful for my gifts knowing that they weren't made out of magic dust.

Yeah exactly. Like in a choir you still need the altos or it's not a choir anymore but they couldn't function without everyone else. Exo don't have any songs written for 5 sub-vocals and 1 main. It's an impossible thing to ask of them and it never should have been asked of them at all.

We are not sheltered folk.

If their self-interest gets cbx what they want, then...I'll take it atp. The result will be the same.

Kyungsoo is a highly skilled vocalist and deserves all the praise, but he just doesn't have the range to sing lead vocals on his own. There are songs they could never perform again without cbx.

Yh. It seems they're finally realising that cbx were indispensable because they aren't entertained anymore. Unfortunately, there's no moral epiphany happening, but now it's clear that the current state of things won't be sustainable just bc they wanted to ignore it.

I said I wouldn't say anything but I just can't let this slide bc it's so outrageous.

At least we have a clear example of what live vocals are and are not now. For the people who weren't sure.

This isn't exo cause exo r really good live, like.

It's so hollow and empty. The layers are gone. The substance is gone. You can mostly hear one person trying NOT to sing. STOP THIS RIGHT NOW. STOP.

But if she says the phrase "Canadian yaoi" again I'm not talking to her.

Need to go to IKEA 😭😭 ooooooooh

Okay I think...I've done it. If I ignore a message for more than either a night or 5 seconds in the daytime, it's bc I forgot to switch an app back.
