K-Pop (General Discussion)

[Ceir]

I tune in just in time for NU ABO. Perfect timing.

[Resi12]

Amber did so well with the crowd!

This is so sad but amazing. What a great concert and it's only started.

Hyoyeon looks so good.

[BEST FICTION]

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned but 2NE1 is coming back in June, they've recorded seven tracks with Teddy, but it's not confirmed whether the album will be a mini or a full album.

T-ara's Round & Round MV


It was supposed to be a follow up to Roly Poly, but was never released and now surfaced. Spot reused sets!

[3Xs]

^Is that leaked or something?

[miklc]

Wow, that t-ara song is really bad.

[hitori]

Unpopular opinion: Can G.NA just join 4Minute and SoHyun gets a solo single?

So much T-ara MVs since 2009. I'm not complaining!

[Monkey0]

^Is that leaked or something?

I thought it leaked, but it's CCM's another way to cash in! Nothing gets wasted in T-ara world!

The remake was originally released in August of 2011 as an intended follow-up to “Roly Poly“, but “Cry Cry” was chosen in favor of the 80s remake. ”Round and Round” is now being included in a project album called ‘Sonata 2012: 33 Songs Selected by T-ara – High School Days‘.

[BEST FICTION]

That is beyond terrible. All their concepts have meshed together to form that.

Yurr, people ignored me the last page also. *cries*

As for T-ARA, 33 songs? Is their CEO expecting them to film MV's and perform them all? Well... I wouldn't be surprised.

[Rambo]

^ It's just a compilation with some old songs by them and various other artists. Bingeul Bingeul is the only song by them on it and they aren't promoting it. It was probably just thrown on there so recording the song didn't go to waste. If you notice, they filmed half of the scenes back when Hwayoung still had long hair lol. The rest was probably thrown together at the very last second a few months ago when they decided to put it on that album. Basically it's nothing important, just something fun for the fans to watch :)

[s2daam]

I'm going to be so spoilt in June! Dal Shabet just confirmed their comeback too!

Dal Shabet, After School, 2NE1, Wonder Girls, Rania!! Finally some more girl groups after the boy band irrelevance to my life.

And the T-ara video isn't supposed to be a proper full on MV btw. It's kind of just a fun video they did. They recorded the scenes during their BPBP video shoot and then again during the Roly Poly video shoot, and then some BTS shots added in.

[_hazzie_]

Yay, super excited for 2NE1 and After School comebacks.

[_hazzie_]

So the final (I think) round for 2NE1's thumb song is here. Vote either electro or R&B..

Sadly, the latter is winning.

I like them both but I actually prefer the R&B version, it suits Bom's vocals much better.

[Resi12]

It sounds too much like I Don't Care for me though.. I prefer the electro production.

[Rambo]

D-unit (Boram's sister's group) released a video of them singing the acoustic version of Crush (feat. Dok2). The regular version which hasn't been released will be their title track! It's going to be a sexy hip hop song :) It was written and composed entirely by Wooram.

Wooram is the girl on the left and Soojin is on the right. So cute! She's like Boram with a better voice.

[mattski]

Would just like to say Wonder Girls killed it at the Google Concert. The definitely got the crowd going during Nobody!

[imnotshy]

In news everyone should care about (but no one will) Teen Top's album jacket for their third mini album (released May 30) and a concept photo:



I hope this comeback goes well for them, they deserve it. Hopefully they continue their streak of amazing title tracks and album tracks.

And thank goodness T-ARA went with Cry Cry and not Round and Round.

[aftersch]

I'm probably the only one but I like T-ara's Round & Round. I'm glad we got it in HQ, the original is better though.
G.NA is such a shit popstar but I don't mind her new song, I don't see myself listening to it a lot but it's still better than most of her previous tracks.

[hakkangin]

omg omg finally a full MTV for Btob's pre-debut single! It's so good !!

I read the writing on Tin Tap's concept picture as "Arthritis"

[Rambo]

T-ara has just announced that they'll be having a comeback as 8 members this summer. The 9th will be added sometime later this year.
Cho Young Soo and Shinsadong Tiger will be working on their album as usual :)

[SloMover]

Any word on who'll be the two new members? The girl who left Co-Ed/5 Dolls (Soomi?)? That American 12 year old trainee?

[Rambo]

The one that's joining in July is a "high school student with both beauty and musical talent" (which would rule out Soomi, though it was never likely that she'd join in the first place). Shannon has already said a bunch of times on her twitter that she's not joining and she's debuting as a solo artist. The only trainees I know of that are still in high school are Jung Hwiin, Jin Solhan, and Lee Areum. There's probably a few more unknown trainees that fit the description too.

[SloMover]

Let the investigation begin! Jonte, a choreographer who's worked with Wonder Girls and JYP in the past, put up the choreography for two unknown songs on his youtube account that he later took down.

I get T-ara vibes from the second one, but the first could be anyone really.

EDIT: Okay, so the first song is for Gangkiz so probably both for them?
