K-Pop (General Discussion)

[alibi]

Because Yoonjo (the orange haired one) injured herself before filming the MV... so she couldn't participate in the dance scenes of the video. She is still in the video, however, just not in those scenes.

Oh thanks! That's sad though if she can't perform with the rest of them when they debut. Hope she recovers quickly.

Blonde Venus needs her roots done STAT.

Raina and JungAh is the absolute last subgroup I would have liked.

[3Xs]

Hello Venus is heinous.

The new T-ara rip off group is dead on arrival.

INFINITE teaser photo is nothing exciting, though I do like how the 'infinite' logo is stylized in a new way with each comeback.

[Pen Expers]

Both the Hello Venus and A Pink singles sound very dull to me, by the numbers, lamer versions of other songs (A Pink going Roly Poly, a big step down since I found My My to be pretty great).

Teaser for the IU's title track 'The Day's End' and documentary film ‘Spring of a Twenty Year Old’

Better budget and production than all of your faves!

[SloMover]

The best thing about Hello Venus is that they can actually pronounce 'Venus'. Which is also a negative because then we won't be able to get youtube clips as amazing as this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McrXBU9OU9s

[Pen Expers]

Video looks gorgeous. Pretty sure I'll like Peach more than the title track, but apparently her performing Peach live is a part of that MV/short film.

Here's a nutter: Controversial TV Preist claims Korea ‘Free from Homosexuality’

This as a part of a TV debate on whether Gaga's concert is harmful to youth. The good news? Netizens' reactions. Read for yourself.

[SloMover]

The comments are good to read but this one rubbed me the wrong way.

It’s complete nonsense of Jeong-Hoon Yoon that Western churches had no choice but to accept homosexuality due to spread of homosexuality which increased the number of homosexual clergymen. He only showed off his ignorance and stupidity on air when he linked homosexuality with AIDS. He seems to be devoid of not only theological knowledge but also common sense.

They've come a long way but need to go a lot more. In time!

[Pen Expers]

The netizen is just quoting the crazy priest and saying that's nonsense.

Oh my gosh, I AM DYING!

[hitori]

The new A Pink song sounds feels like early SNSD. Well yeah, I know that has been said a lot of times already.

I am jealous of everyone who lives in the Bay Area. MBLEAST. For free. *sigh* Waiting for the Big Bang Alive tour dates...

New Mighty Mouth! Bad Boy (feat. Soya)



Fun summer party tune!

[aftersch]

I like that Soya is basically part of the group now. It's the third time she sings on a Mighty Mouth single, right?
Is it wrong that I find Sangchu hot as hell?

[DarkSacoura]

Popping in in the midst of finals to say that 'Volume Up!' and 'Alone' are still completely rocking my world. So proud of SISTAR and 4Minute.

[3Xs]

Alone is the song of the year. How SISTAR could have come with a comeback so strong... I can't even believe it. Who else but the almighty SISTAR?

[miklc]

Popping in in the midst of finals to say that 'Volume Up!' and 'Alone' are still completely rocking my world. So proud of SISTAR and 4Minute.

Me too! Both still sound so fresh and haven't got old at all. I can nearly do the Alone dance and Volume Up doesn't have a dance, so all is good.

[s2daam]

I wouldn't go as far as to say 'Alone' is the best song of the year, but it is great. To be honest I've kind of fallen out of love with Sistar (I stanned for them hard during their debut, wasn't keen on either Shady Girl or How Dare You comebacks, Loved So Cool, OK with this comeback)

I think the crown for best song of the year still goes to either Nine Muses 'News', T-ara 'Lovey Dovey' or 4minute 'Volume Up' imo.

Nothing wrong with finding Sangchu hot. I find them both hot...

Alone is my song of the year so far. I loved Sistar for long time, but damn I didn't see that one coming. Might Sistar!

[Ceir]

I think the crown for best song of the year still goes to T-ara 'Lovey Dovey'

Yes. I mean I love "Alone" and "Volume Up", but Lovey Dovey hasn't gotten old yet, at least for me.

[DarkSacoura]

'Alone' is definitely the song/video of the year for me so far. It's literally perfect.

And I really like 'Lovey Dovey', but Alone and Volume Up wipe the floor with it. It's so typical.

[hitori]

Can somebody edit Mirror Mirror without the awful 'Heeeyyyys' and that Jihyun and Gayoon's middle eight. Despite this, it is still my most played 4Minute song.

[3Xs]

The runners-up to last year's Superstar K3 actually turn out a pretty good debut single. I wasn't a fan when they were dominating the charts last year with all those cover songs but this is quite a surprise. At least they're trying to have fun with it unlike the boring Busker Busker stiffs.



Funny video.

[alibi]

News and Ticket by Nine Muses are the best for the year so far for me, or maybe Miss A's mini (excluding the title track and Rock n Roll).

Oh and apparently we are not getting Take The World On from 2NE1 quite yet.....the Make Thumb Noise is a different project or something, where a Korean song is going to be released at the end (there is something about voting for clips but I don't quite understand that?). The project with Will.I.am is different project completely.
edit: The 3 instrumental clips: 1, 2 and 3.
