Where has it come from about high school musical? Just out of interest. I’m a huge musicals fan and loved high school musical but it seems so old now and not on trend so I can’t see why sims would do a pack about it. I get the whole high school pack vibe but not a high school musical pack. As for Kpop no no and no I do not get the hype at all or maybe I’m getting old and no longer understand current music trends as it’s not just k pop but other popular music at the moment.
A couple of Sim Gurus have song titles from HSM in their Twitter Bios and some people ran with it. That's about it.
Ah I see. I remember for ages sim guru ninja was putting out posts of him working from home with lots of Star Wars stuff in the background so maybe the quotes may be hints of some sort. I’m not sure on a high school musical theme though as it’s old and no longer on trend for Disney. The k-pop thing makes more sense as that is very big at the moment.
Sim Guru Ninja's office has a lot of Star Wars stuff in it because he's a geek. I honestly don't think it was ever intended as a hint towards the Star Wars Pack, but people are determined to run with things. The Star Wars thing only picked up steam after the Icon Leak and people recognized it as being similar to the logo for Disney's Galaxy's Edge attraction (which is the origin of the Star Wars world of Batuu.)
I think the same thing is happening here. I fully expect that a High School pack is in the works. It may even include Bands/Musicals in some form. I don't think it will be specifically tied to the High School Musical (tm) franchise. I also know that at least GrimSuruDoi finds the phrase suitable for the current situation and likes the musical and the song. I don't think his using "We're all in this Together" in his twitter bio is an intentional hint to the High School Pack.
I did think for ages it was because he was a fan but in hindsight I do wonder if there was a subtle hint there. I don’t have the pack and don’t want it but it has made me wonder after it was announced. Although I know he is a big fan. I honestly think the high school thing will be a collab pack with k-pop with a high school setting. I don’t quite get the whole high school thing as in my country we have primary and secondary schools and our secondary schools are a mix of the latter tween years and high school years (12-18) the primary is 5-11 so for me I only know the stereotypical USA high school the media portray. The whole middle school concept is lost on me
