I'm sorry...but for all the brilliant dialogue and banter going on in this chapter, Jinu mentally griping about dabbing being modern is the pinnacle. Total "old man not wanting to acknowledge the world changes too fast for his liking vibes 😜

the industry are the ones who have promoted fan worship and parasocial relationships while exploiting their idols to make it as bad as it is in the first place

So I can see how Your idol can be a rejection of the intensity of pop devotion and connection between boy bands/ kpop groups and fans. Similar to Bo Burnham's song Repeat Stuff. How it can exploit commercialization and fan hero-worship, ratchet up the one-sided parasocial of it all for fans who are seeking an escape and find it in the glossy "pure" facade. But how does it reject the kpop industry as a whole? Like the Kpop factory and the bad deals of the industry like you mentioned? That part I don't get but maybe I'm missing something.

It would be funny if they saw all the funny interactions in the other timeline like when roomie scared him or when he talked about the tiger wearing the Hat joke
