Whether during live broadcasts, events, or on Weverse, fans often ask K-Pop idols to share TMIs. But a “TMI” has a different meaning in Korea.
In English, “TMI” is an abbreviation for “too much information,” so people share deeply personal and even embarrassing or disgusting stories. On the other hand, in Korean, “TMI” is basically used to mean irrelevant or a random incident of one’s day. So, international fans are often confused about why idols’ TMIs are so simple, considering the phrase’s real meaning.
My ick about kpop idols is that when they are asked to tell a TMI and they are like "I ate bread for breakfast
" like stfu tell me if youre a furry… let's talk about the real TMI, have you ever tried to eat soap?
