That's a real catchy song tho. I think it's pretty solid.
Can't forget T.O.P. Or am I the only one here who loves that song?

Nah, the last one was the worst (love and girls was it?). The carnival one.
That was bad.

Are w lol'ing at the first group, or AoA?
I'm lol'ing at both. And CN Blue as well for that matter.
AoA Black can all play i believe... i think they even have live.
Not regularly on the weekly shows of course, but eh.
They're still idols playing a band concept. I've always been pretty open about hating CN Blue and FT Island anyway. I've even walked out from a TV show filming because CN Blue were the last guests to perform (To their credit, on that show they did spend about 20 minutes setting up amps, tuning etc so it was a proper live performance, I just find their music dull and safe pop rock).
Dislike them even more after the pursued legal action against Crying Nut for something that was their fault in the first place.
The music sucks as well.
I know they've been mentioned here a few times and I'm late on this but this Humming Urban Stereo song is so catchyyyyy. Any other recommendations from them?
Also I've listening to a lot of Every Single Day lately. They remind me of Deli Spice.
Best SNSD album definitely.

They're fantastic. So good.
This song is their most well known and what made them famous. Chances are you've heard it in some form or other before.

I really like this one too

With Yozoh, one of my favourite female folk/indie artists and Lee Jin Hwa.
All of their stuff is worth a listen though, just go through it all. It was so sad when Lee Jin Hwa passed away. Also check out Instant Romantic Floor, it's a group that includes Humming Urban Stereo (Lee Jeereen).
/me shrug. I'm no fan of CN Blues music, and it is as much a... charm... for lack of a better expression that AoA Black can actually play. But AoA are legit awesome anyway. I have no time to keep up with them fully, but three of their members are already in drama's
Not sure what being in dramas adds to their awesomeness. I didn't mind their first two singles but the subgroup seems like just a female version of FT Island/CN Blue. Nothing special to me.
Raises awareness a fair bit.

Why? I don't see CN Blue or FT Island dancing like Shinee, and attaining that is every bit as hard as learning to play an instrument.
Let's be real here, there's a lot of idols that can't sing or dance and are merely there for their looks. When there's a few that are actually musically inclined, it's pretty impressive in a system that doesn't emphasize that whatsoever.
파이브돌스 [F-VE DOLLS] "짝 1호" Teaser 1
lol "Korean super idol Group F-ve dolls HITS Billboard No. 1"
That being said, having paid little attention to them before, I like the sound of the teaser. Reminiscent of Roly Poly.
Soyeon makes a cameo

Yay for Narsha the Adult-dol.

No Brain cameo haha.
Amber seems cool, although the scripted narration is horrible. Nice to hear bits and pieces of the new songs scattered throughout.
Sounds like the Korean rock scene to me....
Whether they call themselves idols or not isn't really important though and I would actually like to see more of these pop rock bands with a budget behind them for variation's sake, especially girl bands, which is why the handling of AOA is so disappointing as they seem like dance pop idols first and foremost. Not that I like CN BLUE - the songs would have to be good as well.
Thi is dumb in all ways possible, and of course ignoring the fact that most idol groups have a member who plays an instrument well, even if they don't perform using it often (much like CN / AOA, then).
I'm calling you out on this, because if you're saying that you obviously don't know much about the Korean rock scene.
This is straight up bullshit.
Eh - I'm sure I don't know the underground too well, but Korean rock / indie rock with some mainstream exposure? Where are the interesting bands? It's all tame pastiche.*
*I've posted k rock here, I've liked k rock, but in in general, somewhere between busker brsuker dickpunks and the koxx and all their variations i fall asleep
*I've posted k rock here, I've liked k rock, but in in general, somewhere between busker brsuker dickpunks and the koxx and all their variations i fall asleep
Then explore the underground and learn about the scene more before making obscene generalisations. Why limit yourself to top 100 stuff and chart toppers? So many people in the international kpop scene are okay with limiting themselves to the mainstream but they'd never do that with American/English speaking artists.
I'd also never judge the American rock scene based off of the crap that enters the top 100 there.
Your comprehensive "list" of Korean rock bands is odd too. Dick Punks are hardly mainstream, they just received a boost in popularity from Superstar K. You're ignoring huge legends in the Korean rock scene Crying Nut, the massively popular Galaxy Express, as well as huge names like Nell who dominate the charts with great music whenever they come out with albums.
Get off your high horse bro. I actively seek up alternative Korean music - I was a big indie rock nerd as a teenager but not so much anymore, I prefer to go after the rnb scene, electronic music, different stuff. Same goes for american music, european, whatever. I know all the stuff you post here anyway, so booyah.
High horse? You're the one making ridiculous generalisations about an entire music scene.
All I'm saying is you're wrong. The Korean rock scene is growing huge momentum and popularity both within Korea and abroad. There's a lot of interesting stuff out there if you're willing to look for it.
Edit: And I don't post what I listen to here 90% of the time because it gets overshadowed by whatever picture of an idol gets posted after it.
Really, now?
You're free to make generalisations man, but that's not gonna stop people from telling you that you're wrong when you do.
The premise of Yuri's film, 'No Breathing':
In short, it doesn't look like Yuri will be doing much in the way of swimming.
That Yoona penguin meme is probably the best thing to come out of Love Rain.
So there is some justice in the world after all. Even if it doesn't actually change anything, I guess it's the principle that counts. Also, leesoomansaltytears.gif

읽기 is the best part, besides 말하기. Got only like 1 question wrong on my 4급 읽기. KLI exams get easier the more you take them though, I found 3급 a lot harder since it was my first time taking KLI exams. You should be well used to them by now lol.
victoria ;_;
Yeah the exams gel well with me, 말하기 still the exam with most room for error. 4th level still a solid difficulty jump vocab wise...want to keep my 90+ streak going tho, full nerd mode at the KLI lol.

Yeah level 4 isn't too bad though, most people struggle with the jump to level 5 though which is pretty much on par with level 6 so far as difficulty apparently. 90+ is very doable. Managed to maintain that with only 1 cram day before exams in level 4.
What are those comments from? Feels like reading YouTube comments.
Yeah most of the grammar in 4 is really similar to 3. Pretty much vocab from 4 out. Only annoying assessment in 4 was the debate stuff because you rely on your teammates and opposition to understand what you're saying. That and we had a lot of really passive Japanese classmates who got freaked out when me and a Korean American girl in my class got a bit heated in the debate lol.
Ah Twitter. Every time I see a tweet it reaffirms the fact that I'm not missing out on anything by not having a Twitter lol.
^ Love the BEG teasers so far. The ones with them lounging around being gluttons are the best.
Ah that's annoying. I think our practice one was Cosmetic Surgery and our assessed one was Capital Punishment, so it was fairly interesting otherwise.

Wasn't expecting this right now either lol
Song is good. At times I wish they left the main (string?) melody or built up on it, but it was still good.
The MV is meh, but I expected this from the teaser. Now it's time to wait for the live comeback performance.
