A Redditor namedropping Key from SHINee unlocks a wave of cross-sub popcorn.

https://np.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/3qkamr/which_wellknown_person_in_your_opinion_is_a_grade/cwgxgar

So a Redditor by the name of Sarahslayer posts in an /r/AskReddit thread 'Which well-known person, in your opinion, is a grade A asshole?' Her answer is Key, a member of A/B-tier K-pop band SHINee. This includes accusations of Key being a diva, talking trash about his band and label mates, and blackmailing gay idols.

A throwaway poster comes in to defend Key and is called a SJW(?!)

In the meantime, Sarah herself gets downvoted for suggesting another SHINee member is a huge flirt.

The contents of this post later spread to /r/kpop:

https://np.reddit.com/r/kpop/comments/3qqo94/user_talks_about_experience_working_with_shinee/

The whole thread is full of users debating whether this anecdote is true, but there are these juicy chains in particular:

So a quick Google search shows she's an Arab woman who "looks white" who had an arranged marriage and her first husband died in a car accident. She remarried her current husband, who she met at a party, and has a deaf and mute kid and a baby with him. She spent a lot of her childhood in Korea (she calls her stepmom eomma) and lives with her husband, his parents and grandmother in Korea. Her husband is Korean and is a K-Pop boy band manager while she is a scheduling manager. She subscribes to the Red Pill philosophy which to me speaks a lot about her character.

Sarah's credibility, as well as the rumour's plausibility, is then discussed.

The real drama here is OP describing SHINee as A/B tier. Ain't nothing B tier about SHINee.

Totally not a raging fangirl.

His status as a noona killer is well deserved.

I am really behind on my foreign slang for genitals.

Noona is a Korean term used to refer to older girls. So a noona killer is someone who's good at romancing older women :)

If a member of girls' generation is a lesbian it probably isn't Yuri

That's just missing opportunities there.
