I just came across this “find your destiny’s beautiful girl” test being promoted by tripleS’s Company for the group and I honestly can’t tell if I’m overreacting or if this is kind of uncomfortable.
It’s basically a quiz that matches you with a member but framed in a romantic/“get a girlfriend” type of way. The part that really threw me off is that some of the members are minors and they’re still being included in this kind of thing.
I know the company said the members themselves wrote the result descriptions but even with that it still feels kind of weird to me? Like it doesn’t really change the overall setup or how it’s being presented.
Also, the youngest member was born in 2010. I know there are fans around that age who could take the quiz and get her as a result but realistically… what are the odds that it’s only people her and the other minors ages engaging with this?
I get that fanservice and parasocial stuff exists in K-pop but this feels a bit more direct than usual. Especially with the wording like “I like you a lot” and describing how they’d act toward you. It just feels like it blurs the line in a way that’s kinda uncomfortable at least to me.
Am I reading too much into it?
