SWEET TALK actually ruining our practice sessions?
Hey guys, need some honest advice. So, I’ve been practicing with a close friend who also loves K-pop, and while the vibes are immaculate, I’m starting to get worried.
We always give each other super nice feedback like "Omg, you slayed!" or "Your lines are so pretty!" But lately, I feel like we’re just stuck in a "compliment loop." I know we’re trying to be supportive, but honestly, I need someone to be brutally honest with me.
Like, tell me if my angles are messy or if my vocals are flat, you know? I’m scared that if we only hear what we want to hear, we’ll never be "audition-ready."
Does anyone else find it hard to give "harsh" feedback to friends? How do you guys find someone to be cold and objective about your skills without ruining the friendship? I lowkey feel like I need a "Simon Cowell" in my life right now lol. 🐨
FR, 'compliment loop' is a trap. I always tell my friend: 'Don't tell me I'm good, tell me how to get to the top.' Maybe try a 'Critique Only' session for 30 mins?
Simon Cowell is a mood lol. But honestly, recording your practice and watching it with an objective eye is the best. The camera doesn't sugarcoat anything.
