The Lee Taeyong (이태용) Thread

I am very uncomfortable about this

interesting the way I interpreted it was that he was saying it's ok to fail and to not push yourself to the point of breaking we can't do everything we get overwhelmed so it's ok to "fail" just keep going and forgive yourself

Yeah, I get the meaning. It makes me uncomfortable because I don’t think it’s coming from nowhere. I think something might have happened to cause this change in perspective. Maybe I’m overthinking it

oh I understand I thought you initially meant that you didn't like the advice he gave I'm sorry

Same, some parts of this vlive made me upset and it's only Taeyong stans i've seen who were troubled by it. Like he starts the vlive mentioning how exhausted he is, he talks about how he hasn't slept in 24 hours, he mentions how he's questioning how much he works, like he clearly did this vlive as an outlet to share some of his thoughts and find some comfort. He puts on a brave face for the benefit of everyone else but I definitely think he's struggling right now and ugh it just makes me so much more tired of how much this fandom takes his hard work for granted.
Sorry for the rant, I'm probably projecting a bit but I'm just worried

Nah, you’re not projecting. I got the exact same impression. I also feel like maybe, they’re not hitting some expected target either for SuperM or maybe love dela Luna or something about the group as a whole because he mentioned how it’s ok not to do well all the time etc. I don’t feel good about this vlive at all. I hope he went home to his family afterwards. Everyone is on vacation and he deserves one too.

I mean it’s good advice to know your limits and not put too much pressure on yourself but he’s usually more optimistic than this and trying to go beyond his limits is what has helped him developed so well and come this far. His dancing, singing, rapping and being more involved in music production were all things that didn’t come naturally to him and which he had to strive for. Anyway, i hope he feels better

He and Mark were spotted at SM today so he definitely didn't go home and I don't think he'll be getting anything resembling a vacation anytime soon tbh because there's no doubt another 127 comeback happening this year

Honestly, this is so annoying. The fact that they’re releasing teasers means the music video and choreo have already been recorded and the album is done with. Why can’t they get some break to rest for a week or 2 before going back to practice. The album is a month away for christssakes

*sigh* who knows.
as a fan all i can do is support all his hard work so that none of it is in vain and hope that he eventually gets the vacation he deserves.

 

[Villanelle]

King of being booked. It’s so funny because it was just announced that the other variety show they recorded had either been canceled or postponed and in a few hours, we have another one

He got the vacation he deserves!


I hope he rests well

 

[Villanelle]

Yaaaayyyy. I mean the album is a couple of weeks away and they could definitely afford to give the guys a vacay

Tae mentioned in his vlive with jr that he wouldn’t have Chuseok off so, no vacation.

oh rip This makes me so sad because I know he said that he missed Ruby and I thought he would be able to see her soon for Chuseok.

I’m assuming it’s because of SuperM? sighhh

ikr
I assume it's because of SuperM because during Taemin's live they mentioned they may practice during chuseok, but I'm just going off one translation I encountered so take it with a grain of salt to be safe.

 

[Villanelle]

I saw that translation too but Taeyong‘s video came before the tweet lovenatu posted so I was hoping it was later announced that all sme idols were allowed to go home or something

 

[JammyBunny]

one man orchestra Taeyong

 

[lovenatu]

He got to see Ruby This made my day

 

[Villanelle]

Lmao

 

[Villanelle]

This thing has gone up so rapidly since long flight, it’s insane.
