  Lee Know said he can walk around Korea bc ppl there don't know him and I think he appreciates that he can live a somewhat normal life in that way

  Being rich but not overly popular is a blessing. Especially in the country you're residing in. Privacy is golden.

  I honestly think that not being super popular at home is much better than being stalked daily. If you&apos;re super popular at home then you have to deal with the results of fame without ever getting a break.

  Nothing to be hated about Straykids, &nbsp;they have good character and very talented, good vocals and keep on improving. &nbsp;Despite of success, &nbsp;they remain humble... they also helped young artists

  Ngl if Skz music appealed to Koreans I doubt they would be as famous or known internationally. Majority of Stays are not kpop fans. Huge amount of Stays are rap, rock, metal and alt music fans. The hate they got from Korean netizens were insane btw calling I.N unknown and judging his popularity and fame coz he isn&apos;t big in Korea. Korean netizens really think the world revolves around them.

  Imagine hating on a person just for buying an apartment. The hate i saw towards I.N on twitter coming from k netizens shocked me and i really hope *even if im sure that I.N saw everything * that he wasn&apos;t affected by their words. He started training at like 14 yo and he has been working since he was a minor, so he deserves to buy all the things he wants with his money he earned organically with hard work. I hope he will earn even more next year and buy a 20M one just to make them even more bitter

  Musically Stray Kids follows the idea of world domination. It&apos;s fine some Koreans don&apos;t know them. Their music is made for everyone.

  한국인 스테이로써 생각드는건... 스키즈 음악이 한국 대중에게 먹힐만한 스타일이 아니긴 함. 일부 남돌들이 이지리스닝 노래를 내서 대중에게 알려진 경우가 있긴한데 4세대 부터 한국 아이돌시장의 대중성은 여돌이 더 높음... 3세대까지는 그래도 대중성 있는 남돌이 나왔는데 4세대부터는 아님. 팬덤장사가 더 돈이 되는것도 사실이고, 회사들도 남자아이돌한테 굳이 대중성을 바라지 않는듯함 앨범/굿즈 사주고 콘서트에 와주는건 대중들이 아니고 팬들이니까 (데이식스는 결이 좀 다르다고 생각함)<br>팬으로써 바라는건 한국인들 사이에서 유명해지든 아니든 스키즈가 본인들 하고싶은 음악 줏대있게 계속 해줬으면 좋겠음. &nbsp;난 스키즈가 직접 만드는 노래가 좋아서 팬이 된거고 이렇게까지 본인들이 만드는 음악에 진심으로 열정을 쏟는 팀을 본적이 없음.

  Ngl when I saw the news about I.N buying a house I was like &quot;Is it that surprising??&quot;

  As ARMY looking in, I am happy that the Stray Kids members have more freedom in their everyday life. My wish for celebrities in general is to be able to keep their private lives private.

  I’m Stay, but I’m fully aware of their less than favorite status in their own homeland, which is why it’s hysterical that an Australian is the honorary ambassador to France for South Korea 😂😂😂. Members have mentioned over the years that they can walk around without worrying about being recognized by Koreans. &nbsp;Last year Ayen was forced to go talk to &nbsp;random passerbys and ask if they knew who his group was and they had no idea 😂
