Respect & Envy

Aug 19, 2010 10:48

People are still going on and on about Akanishi Jin leaving KAT-TUN.
Me? I'm over it.
Because it had happened for 930472342 times before, out of which only one of it was real, and I don't know why people gets so worked up this time when the official news is still not out yet.
What was said in the press conference before the concert was vague. It could still very much refer to Akanishi's current "hiatus", going to the US for his solo concerts.
Kamenashi being jittery could very much be nerves before a concert or out of frustration for repeating the same things for 92714374523674 times ever since the the end of March, when he has got 8247853492 other things to worry about.
It's the media effect.
Can't you people see how good the media is at stirring up emotions, influencing and blinding people?
No matter what happens, I'll still be a KAT-TUN fan.

If the official news is out come October, and Jin really chose to leave then...

I have so much respect for Akanishi Jin as a person because he dared to take the risks not many would take. Leave his comfort zone and just go all out to do what he wants[looks like it anyway]. It takes so much courage to uproot yourself from your home country and to pursue a career somewhere else. It takes so much courage to not conform to the rules and just do what you want while you can, when the opportunity arrives. Don't you think that guy's really great in that sense?

I am envious of him too. Envious of his courage. Envious of his determination. But all those qualities have to come from within. When you are going against the majority, you can only draw strength from within. Because he is able to do it he deserves so much more respect and support from the people who know him, who have been a fan of his.

We[people who had gotten too worked up over the news, including myself because it was 2 in the morning and I just came home from watching inception and my brain's not functioning well] need to calm down. Really. Take a step back and you would be able to see how great those guys still are, so much so that we have come to love them, care and worry for them. So much so that rumours which plagued them, bother us as well.
