hello there! Haven't seen me in a while have you? I have to admit I felt like I needed to comment after reading this. Because I am one of those people who kind of fell away. I wasn't ever the most active person, but I used to always be in the comms and reading fic and whatever. And since I am still a member of most of them, I've seen how everything has died off.
As to why that is, I don't exactly know. I think a lot of it did build around Tenimyu, and those guys aren't in it anymore. Even not seeing them as characters but as real people, I liked seeing them all together. And they aren't that much anymore. I can still see *Pnish together, but I don't watch them all that much. I really like them, but I just don't keep up with them as much. Probably because the people, the community around them isn't that active, so it doesn't inspire me to be active.
What took me away mostly though is another group of guys. Sorry, but it's the truth. And they can be serious (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzcXKBzolXM&fmt=18), they can be complete dorks (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BStScp6DqVc&fmt=18), they can be sweet (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8XtHA4Gl4Q), they are amazing (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGkrN0p4u1w&fmt=18) singers, and I l (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S88POuj95co) o (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJ-94atKT3g&fmt=18) v (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Snn6IIi6aLg&fmt=18) e (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJEwMNxuTiQ) watching them. I can't see them as characters because they never have been. The comm around them drives me nuts sometimes (there's way too many people who see a touch, a glance in the general direction of one and say they're in love) but at the same time I've got some great friends to fangirl with and I love it.
I can understand what you're saying, because watching these boys and keeping up with them, as well as others is great. And if it suddenly died off, I would be quite sad. I put some videos up there, and you don't have to know them for the vids to be funny or sweet, so check them out! They are active in both Korea and Japan, so if you ever feel like looking for some of their Japanese stuff they're great. I know you aren't looking to replace the ones you already have and love, I'm just offering something you might like to check out.
