2BiC updates:

Instead of "Love Game" they promoted a song called "Unforgettable", a great ballad that features a pianist called Yoonhan(윤한).

2BiC - Unforgettable, 투빅 - 언포게터블, Show Champion 20140514
Simply K-Pop - Ep111C03 2BiC - Unforgettable / 심플리케이팝, 투빅
[Sound K] 투빅 (2BiC) - Unforgettable
투빅(2BiC) - 'Unforgettable' (2nd Mini album record)


2BiC singed live with lalasweet during a MBC Music show called Picnic live:

2BiC with lalasweet on MBC Music Picnic live


2BiC Jun Hyung singed with lalasweet the song 편지 by 김광진 and 2BiC Ji Hwan singed with them the song 썸(Some) by 소유(SoYou) and 정기고(JunggiGo). Both of them are really awesome, must listen!

The crowd seems so different in these videos. Being around the stadium since early in the afternoon, it felt like the audience was made up of about 95% (pre)pubescent girls.

The crowd was so loud for Exo, it didn't seem the same for SNSD. It probably didn't help that I was screaming my head off, though. ^^'

I underestimated how long the concert was going to be, and unfortunately my camera was on its last legs towards the last half/third. I figured there'd be heaps of footage elsewhere, but I've realised that I don't really know where to find it. I don't usually come here, but I just wanted to ask you guys: Where's the best (easiest) place to find media from this year's Dream Concert?


Girl's Day and 4Minute (and maybe A Pink) were the groups I remember where the crowd managed to cut through the music blaring from the front and reach us with some sort of comprehensibility.

A bit of Something from where I was sitting:

It was a bit off-putting with the delay, I must say. Hearing the crowd in the vids linked above, it makes me think I would have had an entirely different experience in the fan blocks.

Hello everyone! I'm new to GAF in general and this is the first time posting in this topic :3

I'll leave some fancams of the Dream Concert here:
Taeyeon focus - Hoot - Mr. Mr.
BESTie - Thank you very much
T-ARA(Hyomin focus) - 9
GsD (Minah focus) - Something - Expectation
EXO - Overdose - Growl
Welcome!! You guys forgot to write 2BiC in your favorite artists list, I don't know if you guys know but liking 2BiC is a requirement to be accepted as a K-Pop Gaffer and soon it will be a requirements to become a member of NeoGAF.*

My first kpop crush was Sunye, which I've had to give up, obviously, but I think I have a soft spot for leaders when it comes to specific idols. My bias list (I'm not sure I'm using this term correctly) includes: Taeyeon, Seungyeon, Jaekyung, Eunjung, Hyosung, Yura, and even though I find her ridiculously skinny, Nana.

This kind of looks like klogg's list. We should introduce you.

I haven't really thought about it, but on the spot, my SNSD ranking goes:
1. Taeyeon
2. Sunny
3. Jessica
4. Yoona
5. Yuri
6. Hyoyeon
7. Seohyun
8. Tiffany
9. Sooyoung

I consider 6th place a grand victory around these parts. Nice to have some new faces in here!

Happy birthday llehuty! Here's some celebratory Sungah <3

 
The crowd seems so different in these videos. Being around the stadium since early in the afternoon, it felt like the audience was made up of about 95% (pre)pubescent girls.

That's actually one of two things I wanted to ask about as a k-media newbie.

1. Whats up with the audiences. When I see the "backstage" views from pre-recorded performances the placed audiences always seem like they are just local kids from a near by elementary/middle school. I know idols are popular for kids that age but... its a sharp contrast between the weirdly conservative media for stuff like showing bikinis, to preforming these sexy songs/stage performances... when literally more than 80% of the audience is like 12 with their parents. The one that got me was I think After School's First Love, with stripper poles.... and like the audience was 12 year old girls lol. Just seems like the messaging is all over the place. I know there is plenty of fans if not a majority of their fans that are a similar age as whoever they follow, but I can't help but notice it.

2. What is the "Comeback" system. I assumed it was for groups that have been around but not active for awhile, then I noticed some of these were doing comebacks after only being active for what I consider a short time.

Most hardcore idol group fans are teenagers and female, yes. Most of my Korean friends over the age of 20 don't really give a damn about mainstream idol groups and couldn't even name any of the recent ones. Males even less so, they only care about the hot girls.

It's not really a system, it's just a Konglish word used when groups or artists promote a new release. It's not a comeback if it's a follow up promotion from the same release, that's all.

New Thornapple MV for the album coming tomorrow. Can't wait to hear the whole thing.

For me, Tae, Sica, Sunny and Fany are so close right now that picking between them would basically come down to whoever got the most sleep or did their hair best or something stupid like that. There is no real ranking between them as each one has strengths and weaknesses that balance out. The most surprising thing about that is Fany getting on my good side again. Why? She didn't change at all. Anyway, then you got Yoona and Seohyun pretty even in a lesser appeal, then Sooyoung and Yuri don't really catch interest, and just no to Hyoyeon as always.

I haven't watched talk shows, variety shows, idol shows, Running Man for months and months and yet I'd probably watch this Krystal and Jessica thing every day. I mean nothing happens but maybe that's what I need.

This bias ranking is pretty accurate! Cause it's actually what it is, Jessica went up to equal with my SunTaeNy recently.

1 Sunny
1 Taeyeon
1 Jessica
1 Tiffany
5 Yoona
6 Yuri
7 Sooyoung
8 Hyoyeon
8 Seohyun

And rankings again!?

Backed up by scientific data this time.

Edit:
Kris and SM Entertainment are reported to enter into mediation, opening up a last chance to reach a mutual agreement before they take on a legal battle.

According to media outlets, on the 11th, the Seoul Central District Court referred the case to mediation to encourage the two parties to communicate. This will likely be the last chance that the two sides may be able to work things out with one another before they enter into their formal legal battle.

This news has left fans wondering if a compromise could come about between Kris and SM Entertainment. If the two come to an agreement, then this situation could be wrapped up sooner than expected. However, if the two parties are unable to reach an agreement, then they will head into trials.

Llehuty m8, what did you do for your birthday?

This is very scientific therefore it must be precise and accurate.

1. Hyoyeon
2. Sunny
2. Sooyoung
2. Yuri
2. Seohyun
6. Taeyeon
6. Jessica
6. Yoona
6. Tiffany

A little overly-broad perhaps but accurate enough. I do split my ranking into three tiers like this because there's a lot of movement within those tiers.

1. Hyuna
2. Sungah
3. Erin
4. Sera
4. Kyungli
6. Sam
7. Hyemi
8. Eunji
8. Minha

No arguments here.

It actually got my groupings right! 1-5 definitely is their own group 6-9 is another, that's amazing lol.

Also that Fanny profile pic... welp. I'll be in my bunk.
