Do you guys also 'drown' yourselves in kpop and all the content associated with it when you're stressed/despairing?

as i'm pretty sure you're aware, the world is getting pretty scary right now. if i think about it too much i start spiralling.

i've been a kpop fan for a decade and i was never 'crazy' about it, i just liked some groups, didn't have any merch, nothing. well, now at 24 years old I'm becoming a full-on fangirl. much more than i was at 15. because like... when you look at the news, everything is getting so bad. i just don't wanna be sad and scared all the time. so i'm basically doing a hedonism by leaning into my hobbies REALLY hard.

i save less money nowadays, because every paycheck i get i spend on concerts so that i have something to get excited about and look forward to. i buy albums. and i even started collecting photocards, when i didn't care about them at all for the last 9 years of being a kpop fan.

anyone else drowning themselves in kpop to forget about The Horrors of The World™️?
