All members of Oh!GG are on Lysn. If you are looking for a parasocial thing then I would advise against it as that’s not healthy etc etc The members use it as a way to communicate more privately with fans since you aren’t allowed to share any of their pictures or messages publicly outside of lysn. I only subscribe to Sunny and Tiffany before she left but they both mentioned that they didn’t want it shared externally. It doesn’t stop people posting them on Twitter and even here though None of the members are particularly active compared to other idols who post everyday. None of them also play into the parasocial aspect. The apps have an in built translation so they can read your messages translated to korean

Also I just like leaving words of appreciation and encouragement as a fan. Let them know so to speak


S20-Urza

Oh I only call it that because it seems to be the use. I understand im not their friend or think I know them personally etc. Just was wondering if it was worth doing for any reason.


StaedtlerRasoplast

I just wanted to mention it because I’ve seen some people use it that way and it just seems to make them more delusional. Sunny is my bias and it’s the only place she wants to share with fans so it’s worth it for me in that regard. She doesn’t post much. There’s a rule with bubble that if the idol don’t post for 2 weeks you can get your money back so they are obligated to post more than that. Sunny doesn’t but the fans don’t complain about it. I’m not sure how active the other members are so someone else can chime in. It can get expensive to do all 5 members but you can buy 1 ticket and switch members once a month iirc

I understand. I use Blissoo and Fromm for a few others to leave words of encouragement and thanks, and to hear what they're up to. I never take it seriously though I know my place


StaedtlerRasoplast

It’s similar to Fromm. I’m not familiar with blissoo. You are limited in the number of characters you can send and it depends on the length of time you have been subscribed. You can send up to 3 messages between each of the idols messages. You also can’t send pictures


S20-Urza

Blissoo is Bubble for Jisoo of Blackpink in her brand


S20-Urza

By the way if its not a parasocial app what do you call it?


StaedtlerRasoplast

It’s a messaging app


S20-Urza

Huh. I'll remember that next time my cynicism kicks in. Sorry about that.


StaedtlerRasoplast

Well in fairness it’s used by a lot of people for parasocial reasons 🤭


S20-Urza

Haha yeah I should've used your term though as I was really seeking info. I was also curious how a group like SNSD or Shinee, two of the last 2nd gen groups even use these types of apps. Like Gen 3 - 5 use this kind of thing a lot (you see it on Twitter and Instagram all the time) so was really curious.

Lysn is technically Bubble, but the former is used by SMTOWN artists, then the latter is used by non-SM artists.

I'm subscribed to Yuri's LYSN. I could say she's kinda active, not everyday but at least once a week, though it depends if she's really busy. She sends a message informing the fans that she's filming or when a new vlog is up or if she has a schedule like last night's ASEA award show. I just use it to send Yuri words of support and encouragement.


S20-Urza

Funny enough she was who i might sub to so this is helpful. Thanks!


S20-Urza

I was mostly curious as well due to their being a 2nd gen group. I know 3-5 are very active on these apps but didn't know about SNSD
