Chapter 21: Disclaimer feat. my brutal opinion - My K-Pop Experience

Hello, It’s Kitania *waving sign*. How was the reading so far?

I am not sure if I’ll enable comments under these posts, but you can still let me know if you wish on other online platforms.

Allow me to just drop my strorypen to say this:

To be honest, since the previous chapter, the struggle has been real.

I kept asking myself: “How should I go about it?”, “How to keep it real without sounding bitter?”

I did throw myself into that pit after all. A pit so deep it causes me to have nausea when thinking and talking about it.

A step at a time then...

As you continue, you may wonder “Why is she not including any screenshots of the messages received”.

• I am not that privileged…

I do not have millions of pounds available if these “people” decide to come after me with a lawsuit...So I’ll just paraphrase what I can remember. Whether this "friend" was the members of "that" KPOP group in disguised or someone linked to them in some ways, I am so grateful and thankful for the "foreigner" title given to me. It saved me from more troubles than I needed.

• I don’t want to.

I battled with this one and still do at times. If bitterness had the throne of my heart, your wish could have well been granted. Forgiveness is a daily choice. I prefer to focus on how God saved me instead of giving glory for the work the devil did and still does through people either unknowingly or when they “allow” themselves to be used as channels.

I am really upset. Upset that the content I've released so far will just be buried because of not being entertaining enough. Upset that it only takes a company to release dating "scandals", Weverse live or new comeback dates to divert people's attention somewhere else. Upset that the fruits given to fans by some of these KPOP idols are so rotten to the core, yet their fans still take them because of the illusion of a sweet scent.

How many stories have we not heard of trafficking rings in the entertainment industry, including KPOP? Even celebrities themselves talking about it but we just turn our heads the other way because it's too uncomfortable to hear or to do something about it. And probably because talking about these things would be the best way to be singled out. No one likes that.

Saying kind words to people is good. But sometimes a non-welcomed whip is necessary.

I am not encouraging hatred towards anybody. As a Christian, I am praying that at least one person would benefit from hearing and reading personal experiences including mine, before making important career progression or relationship choices.

As a Christian:

- if you are not certain that God would walk with you where you are going, pause.

- If God has not anointed you for a particular mission or task, pause.

- If you struggle to stand on your religious beliefs because of a friendship, pause.

- If you are interested in someone or the other way round and he/she challenges your beliefs in God and the Bible, manipulates you, gaslights you, lies to you, is deep into the occult...my dear, don't just pause, run the other way.

These are a few of the mistakes I have made that I hope would help you to make more informed decisions.

There's more to say but I'll just pause here.
