loooool

Actor and singer Jang Geun Suk has recently been thrown into a minor controversy regarding his actual height.

The Hallyu star guest-featured on the February 2nd episode of Fuji TV‘s ‘Tonneruzu (Tunnels) no Minasan no Okage deshita‘ along with Tonneruzu member Noritake Kinashi.

Both stars were not wearing any shoes for the episode, which made the difference in their height all the more obvious.

The Japanese fans were shocked that Jang Geun Suk, whose profile height reads nearly 6 feet, was shorter than Noritake Kinashi, who is less than 5’10″ tall.

The fans continued to expressed their disappointment on various community sites as well as personal blogs, while Korean fans shared photos of celebrities who really are above 6 feet tall in comparison to Jang Geun Suk.

Wooo Bigbang world tour coming soon! Then again, it'll probably be swamped with fangirls...

It's college so I expect them to be mature about it, but if it happens I don't really mind what they think about me after the speech. If it can grab the attention of few then it's all worth the hate.

On a side note, I am Asian, and I dress metrosexually.

also, I'm very straight.

Haters gonna hate and all that, but go for it! Sounds like a topic that you'll enjoy and have fun with, which can only mean a great mark.

I guess just keep the Sunny aegyo gifs out of your slideshow and it'll be fine.

Doing an informative speech on SNSD. Giving an introduction to them so people know who the hell these angels are.

I'm going to run a slideshow, but I don't have good pictures of Yuri, Yoona, Seohyun, Sooyoung, Sunny, and Hyoyeon. (Because the only ones I personally care about are Tiffany, Taeyeon and Jessica) Although they're all beautiful, those three are just freakin styling on everybody.

I am in dire need of pictures of all of them though, so gimme some good ones please. :)

You are very brave. I'm in a speech class myself and doing an informative speech in a few weeks. I thought about SNSD but can't bring myself to do it. It's hard enough to do public speaking, can't do something that is borderline embarassing, depending on what I talk about. Still considering it though, we'll see. Did you have to do a "how to" speech also? What'd you pick for that?

In my mind its GUARANTEED that Big Bang will come to LA. I will be there for sure.

Thanks, I'm hoping for some good marks. I'm definitely keeping Sunny aegyo out of it.

I chose it because it's something I genuinely like and know a lot about, so I'll be more calm when doing my speech. I normally get dry mouth and go monotone when I get nervous, so choosing something like that is going to be very helpful.

I didn't have a how to speech but I did have a 'press conference', I did it on ACTA.

Yup, talking about something you're passionate about definitely helps. I would be too distracted by what I think my classmates thought about it though. Let us know how it goes

Yeah, it's not something I'm loud and proud about either. I'll mix in some Epik High and some of the more upbeat girls songs into my normal playlists and I don't really care if people hear that. But it's not something I go around telling people about.

All my friends know I like Kpop. None of them know about my picture collection tho :\

Lol, my informative speech in my Business Communications class was on toilet paper. My teacher had a sense of humor so it ended up going over well. Getting a couple early laughs definitely helps too.

But yeah, like you said, I'd be way too distracted by how I'd be seen if I were to do any pop group, much less a girl group from a foreign country.

Loll, no picture collection here to worry about. But I bet the people at google think I have a Korean fetish based on my search history, lol.

while we're on the topic of shame, after the signing i was having a burger with some people from the event and found out i went to the same high school as one of them. of course the natural question is, what year? turns out i graduated 10 years before him O_O

that along with all the fainting fangirls made me start to question if i'm too old to be showing up at these things.

oh yeah, good luck Ym1r.

Become samchon fan. NO SHAME.

Also sup. Account validated yesterday. Pretty quick. About a month between registering and now. Sorry about adding to the endless Taeyeon avatars. I'll change it when I'm less lazy and don't have a paper to write.

Lollll, aight, I'm sorry but that is pretty embarrassing. But hey, you got a pic with Soshi so it's all good.

welcome.

so many new people O_O and they all like taeyeon!!
Click to expand...

I wonder what the fandom breakdown is in here, for #1s. Taengoo's clearly at the top with like 15 shippers. After that it's probably a close call between Fany, Sunkyu
tf?
and Yuri. Then Sooyoung/Hyo, followed by Yoong/Sica. And I think maknae brings up the rear with 0, as far as I can tell, at least as far as the non-lurkers go.

No worries Deadly, we got this.

Oh, shit. It's already been more than a month since their single with T-ara, huh? I probably shouldn't be surprised.

Too bad it isn't a crazy MV like their last one (minkyung in garbage bag). Digging this, though.

I like Seo, bro. I like a lotta people. Don't have the strong favorites it seems most people have. Taeyeon just happens to look good in 120x100.

Hey Guys. Been lurking this thread for a while but just recently got my account activated. Got into kpop last year with Soshi. This thread has opened me up to a lot more kpop. But Soshi is still the best, and Sooyoung <3

Yong Hyun sulking so hard on Ep 5 of DB.

He really can't handle getting bossed around by a senior male. I find the social hierarchy stuff a bit weird sometimes, but man, there are times when you have to suck it up.
