BLACKPINK Fan Meetup Disrupts National Museum, Prompts Apology
the national museum of korea had to restrict general access for an hour during blinks' 10th-anniversary gathering — and then apologized for it.
the way BLACKPINK's fandom can bend an entire national institution to its will is genuinely so funny to me.
for the group's 10th anniversary, a fan meet-up of around 40 BLINKs gathered at the National Museum of Korea — and the turnout/logistics meant the museum ended up restricting general visitor access for about an hour. the museum later issued an apology to other guests over the disruption.
forty fans. FORTY. celebrating four girls, and the effect was big enough that a national museum had to send out a formal "our bad." that's not a fandom, that's a weather system.
is it a little chaotic? sure. but a decade in and BLINKs still showing up in force to celebrate together is exactly the community energy we're here for. happy 10th, bestie. 🖤💗

TWICE to Mark 11th Anniversary With Fan Party 'ONCE UPON A THRI11'
eleven years, one intimate party for 750 ONCEs, and a group pun we have to respect.
ELEVEN years of TWICE and they're throwing a party for it. as they should.
the group announced an 11th-anniversary fan party titled 'ONCE UPON A THRI11' — yes, the '11' pun, we see it, we're obsessed — hosting around 750 fans for an intimate celebration. after more than a decade of stadiums, a small-room moment with ONCE hits especially sweet.
eleven years in K-pop is genuinely rare air; most groups don't make it close. that nine women are still here, still together, still throwing fan parties is its own quiet milestone worth celebrating.
ONCE, eleven years and still that girl. happy almost-anniversary. 🍭
