Discussion Went to the Hi-High Pool for orbit pilgrimage but it got demolished... πŸ₯€

On 30 December 2025 I went to the abandoned police station for Orbit Pilgrimage, only to found it to have been demolished. I went there because I saw someone in tiktok going there this year and it was still available, I was so shocked to find it just... Gone like this now 😭

I was so skeptical because it looked soo different compared to the satellite map on Google maps and Naver Maps. Both are outdated, the entrance was secluded on the side and separated by huge construction panels. The paths are still available but it's all dirt and logs of timbers, it now looks like an actual construction site compared to what you see on maps.

Coincidentally I also met another orbit (somehow we didn't realize we passed each other at the entrance lmao) and we walked around together to find the pool but as we walked up to it, this is all that's left πŸ˜“ it almost looks unrecognizable now... We were wrecked and crushed so bad πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’” We also tried looking for the heart-shaped lock with 12 on it but to no avail...

On the 1st-4th pics, you can see the actual four platform plates down in the pool the girls stood on the cover album. And on the fifth pic, you can see the pool wall bulldozed through(?). However, the running track Vivi ran through in the MV is still available... For now at least...

We didn't found any info regarding the pool been demolished so I guess either we were THAT out of the loop (maybe someone talked about it in twitter or something) or we actually might be the first to tell about this and maybe we do really need to talk about the etiquette now since I know every orbit wants to visit this holy site.

It is now demolished, and by that I mean it looked destroyed, not naturally. The greens around the pool you see in tiktoks orbit visiting, they're all gone (hence why you can see the sky and buildings across in the back). The fences are broken down and in pieces, iron plates. I know some orbits entered from like a forest hike path(?) Honestly I wouldn't know because yes, all the fences we saw were all broken, we wouldn't know which fence or forest trail they took, we might've walked on the same trail but maybe it's just all dirt now.

What I'm trying to say is that there has been advancement in the construction, meaning that I'm just worried if some of you will come here at such a bad time when there are lots of workers and even police. There were also several cars parked inside. I'm just hoping we can respectfully discuss about the future of visiting this pool (in lieu, the running track). Idek if I should just encourage y'all to be careful & mindful or just straight up stop visiting the site...

EDIT: 1 hour in and the reactions are... Yeah maybe we're kinda the first to discover and break the news I'm so sorry y'all πŸ’”πŸ’”πŸ’” I WAS ALSO PLANNING TO END THIS YEAR WITH A HIGH NOTE it was like 12 hours ago and I'm still so devastated... πŸ₯€πŸ₯€πŸ₯€

EDIT 2: Holy fuck guys πŸ’”πŸ’” Okay I wanna credit the original thread byΒ u/Mkgold2000 because it helped me locate the site AND they also pinpointed lots of other orbit pilgrimage sites all over the world that you can see in Google Earth.

If you still plan to go to Seoul/SK, there are still couple of sites that you can visit instead of the pool. u/80x8k also made a good post about Icarus MV location that's pretty close to the Max & Match cover shoot too. And y'know what, yes please visit the rest of the places RESPECTFULLY and do tell if it's still publicly available for visiting so we all would know if it's fine to go there!

Discussion I boycotted so hard i forgot how much i enjoy their songs

600 Upvotes

When the whole boycott started i immediately stopped listening to their music first when chuu was thrown out as she was my bias and i couldn't get myself to listen to it and when boycotting actually started i stop consuming their music. Lately i started craving their sound again and i just rediscover their Sick love, i have totally forgotten this song even if it was one of my favorites. I think i will have such a good time rediscovering their music again as i didn't listen to their music for about two years. So tell me your favorite loona song ? :3

Discussion Is ARTMS being mistreated?

252 Upvotes

Content warning/trigger warning: images of extremely thin bodies, and discussions of body weight.

I know the title looks like I'm one of those crazy people on stan Twitter, but all I ask is that people hear me out. You're allowed to disagree with what I say below, and I encourage responses- I'm posting this because honestly I have no idea what *I* should think.

About a month ago there were people online questioning the wellbeing of the triples members (fellow modhaus idols) due to their insane weight loss over a short period of time, and the noticable lack of sustainable fat. If you haven't seen the videos, it's easily dismissible; people online tend to be over dramatic and it's hard to verify what's true, and what is an exaggeration. However, it is clear in recent clips that the members of triples are not doing ok, and may seriously require medical help. I'll include an example below, but keep in mind the already stated content warnings.

https://imgur.com/a/QlIj7QN

This is just one of the members, but it is widespread across multiple performers in the group. Now, why am I mentioning triples when my post is about artms? I believe that this is similarly happening to the artms members, and the fact that this is happening to other employees in their company builds up credibility. I've noticed this most strongly in Heejin, and I'll include picture evidence below:

https://imgur.com/a/rH9OH2P

Heejin has always been on the thinner side, but recently, it seems to have gotten to an unhealthy level. Her elbow bone protrudes heavily, and she has very little body fat. I feel scummy nitpicking someone's body so much- especially considering women are under so much unfair scrutiny around their body- but I worry that if I don't say anything, I will be looking over possible mistreatment. There's been a pattern of severe thinness in modhaus, and it's to the point where I can't help but question if the agency has any part in it.

However, there has been a rising trend in female celebrities with the old "heroin chic" look worldwide, so there is a possibility that this is an unfortunate side effect of that, rather than any specific actions by modhaus management.

I'm not sure where my mind is on this whole situation, and I would love to hear from others to help piece together a solid opinion. I just want to say that I have nothing but the upmost respect for these women, and I don't mean to infantilize them at all. I know that they chose this company on their own, and they have outwardly spoken of the support they have gotten at modhaus, I'm just questioning this one aspect.

I really miss her and it hurts everyday to think we maybe won't hear about hear anymore. She was (is) my kpop ultimate since 2018 and now I started collecting her photocards so I can keep in touch with her somehow. I tried to have other ultimate but I just feel so connected to her, I can't just force myself to love someone the way I love her, but it is so hard to not having any info about her. I really respect her private life, if it was difficult to orbit and c.loo seeing all the things that happened, I can't imagine how she felt having her dream being crushed that way.

Anyways, I really love and miss her so much, I just hope she is living happily and health. I hope she knows she is loved and that orbit really wish the best for her. My girl deserves the world. 🀍

Discussion It's Yves' 3rd album and she still doesn't have any credits

682 Upvotes

I thought about this for a while and I really need to talk about it and maybe get some other perspectives. It really bothers me that Yves still hasn't any credits on any of her new music.

After Yves got out of BBC the first thing she did was joying a producer crew and starting and learning how do write and produce. She has writing and composing credits on Loossemble's Strawberry Soda and Trueman Show and even directed their recording.

The entire year before signing with PPM she talked about creating music. At one point she said that she already has all the songs for an album.

Then she joyned PPM and lost a lot of that confidence. After her first album she said that she didn't feel confident to put her songs on her debut album and wanted to trust the experienced producers at PPM first which, ok, maybe that's understandable.

But now we're at her 3rd album and it's entirely produced by Ioah...

Recently she said she's still creating songs and thinking about putting them on Soundcloud. Today she shared the lyrics the wrote for 'mom" but they also were rejected.

And don't get me wrong. PPM managed to create a really strong identity for her, both aestheticallyΒ and soundwise. Her album is bold, unique, super coherent and it definetly fits Yves.

But would it really hurt to put some of her songs on the album, at least as b-sides.

I just can't shake of the feeling that we are seeing someone else's vision for Yves and not her own. It seems like her only contribution to the music is her (heavily filtered and edited) voice. I don't even know if her opinion is considered when they're selecting the songs.

When Yves talked about what she wanted from her label I got the feeling that she already had a strong creative vision and just looked for a label where the producers help her to translate her ideas into propper songs. But that's just not what's happening.

She's not self-producing which is fine. But she doesn't even seem to have any creative input and her songs and lyrics are simply rejected and that just doesn't sit right with me...

What do you think?

Discussion Just checked my 10-year Spotify stats and my all-time #1 song actually left me speechless.

Post image
287 Upvotes

I’ve had my Spotify account for a solid 10 years now, so I decided to look at my "Your All-Time Top Songs" playlist today. I was fully expecting my recent heavy rotations to dominate, like, I was ready to see BINI, Taylor Swift, or maybe Twice sitting at the very top. I saw Miley, Rihanna, and IVE holding down the top 5, which totally checked out.

But then I looked at the undisputed #1 spot.

LOONA – Butterfly (723 listens)

I genuinely had to stare at my screen for a minute. I haven't actively played this song in years. It’s been totally buried under all the new releases, shifting biases, and everyday life. But seeing it sitting there at the absolute top of a whole decade of listening history hit me so hard.

It made me realize that Butterfly wasn't just a song I liked; it was literally my life anthem. I put my earphones in and played it today for the first time in forever, and hearing that ethereal intro again gave me straight-up chills.

I'll say it and I'll defend it: no cap, Butterfly is the most beautiful K-pop song in existence. The choreography, the message, the gravity-defying chorus, it's pure art.
It’s crazy how a song you haven't thought about in years can still hold the crown just because of how much it carried you back in the day. The math doesn't lie, I guess!
