Not sure how I missed this:
박지윤 Park Ji Yoon - 미스터리 Mr.Lee (Feat. San E)
http://25.media.tumblr.com/bf7ec619043fa57c8911161b8768cf58/tumblr_mux2p2G6QE1rp3knho1_1280.jpg

Cute single. Also San E is the best

I've been listening to the latest Jaurim album for a bit. The singer's voice is quite something. Reminds me a tad of Nakajima Miyuki.
I don't really care for the mv, so here's a live perf from their channel:
JAURIM(자우림) - 이카루스
PJY and Jaurim in the same post. Yes.

You are kinda right about me though, been following Kpop for 7 years Jpop for almost 10 years and it does take a lot to grab my attention tbh. I'm not just gonna fawn over every other nugu that comes around like a lot of you guys. ;)

miss A comeback next month, fucken finally.
I'm actually excited.

The new album will have a total of thirteen songs, including seven entirely new songs. The title song, as mentioned, will be E-Tribe's "Hush" while the other new songs are by names like Lee Woo Min, Park Woo Sang, No Day, and more. The name missing from the list is the one that most people expected to see - J.Y. Park.

[NB] Troublemaker's MV under controversy for similarities to Rihanna's "We Found Love"

20131028naek01.jpg


aw shoot

Article: "Can they still call themselves Hallyu? Embarrassing" Troublemaker under controversy for suspicions of plagiarizing their music video

Source: Kuki News via Nate

1. [+1,792, -92] Sigh... as if kids like them can call themselves leaders of Hallyu ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+1,632, -74] Did they really want to shoot that kind of a music video even if they had to resort to copying?

3. [+1,601, -63] It's similar to the point where you can't deny it..

4. [+80, -13] Well, all pornos are similar to a certain extent

5. [+80, -14] Sigh.. embarrassing..

6. [+72, -7] I thought Troublemaker would be a one time thing... and honestly, as a B2ST fan myself, their comeback is not welcome. With our country still behind in sex education, we're not ready for advancement in sex culture like this.

7. [+54, -15] Really embarrassing

8. [+49, -12] They can use IU's excuse and call it a cliche of love.

Very excited for Miss A. I'm a little confused about the 6 not-new songs, are they just going to be re-releases of old songs, or remixes, or something? I don't get it. The lack of "This...is JYP" will be odd. 7 new songs though, and the members looking that good, is enough for me.

“(When you performed on YHY Sketchbook for the first time, that was when the name ‘IU’ first left an impression on me) That was the first time I received attention from everyone. Playing songs like ‘Marshmallow’ and ‘You Know’ on my guitar had positive reactions from everyone and I even became one of the top search terms, so that made me really happy. (Arranging the song and playing it on your guitar is quite different from what idols usually do…) Actually, I didn’t do any arrangment at all. I just played a fast song slowly? But playing a fast song slowly seemed to be well-received. The reaction was so great that I felt sort of like I cheated everyone.”

Cube will be releasing the drama version of 'NOW' tomorrow which will be even more intimate.

They need to let the original MV rack up more views before they release the drama, imo. Oh well though, I'm excited for more bed scenes.

I can confirm. It takes the very base level of skill to do a slow acoustic cover. That is "what the song wants to do" because you are reducing the song with a full arrangement to just you and a guitar, which is a whole different interaction. The thing that takes a lot of skill (or/and a lot of expensive equipment) and effort is retaining the melodic fullness and rhythmic energy of a full-band song with just yourself and a guitar.

Cube will be releasing the drama version of 'NOW' tomorrow which will be even more intimate.

I am ready for even more "intense images" of Hyuna's padding being mistaken for her nipple.

Today I'm gonna seriously give my biggest contribution to K-POP GAF: Watch the movie "Breathless" (&#46629;&#54028;&#47532;).

Sadly, any attempt to convince why you should watch it would fail. I can only say that it's impressive how such violent (but non-gore) movie can be so poetically touching and amazing. Against all odds, you'll love the main character.

Don't read anything about it, just grab it.

Seriously, is that good.

EDIT: Have 'Taxi Driver' level of deepness.
 
TOP is also releasing a solo album after Taeyang. Plus there is a new sub-unit to be announced. I think it's probably a Daesung and Seungri duo.

Anyone else watching Reply 1994? The show is starting off slow just like 1997, hopefully things pick up soon. In 1997 the identity of the husband was obvious half way through the series, I'm still not sure who the husband could be for 1994. The "brother" is too similar to the 1997 husband and the "Leslie Cheung lookalike" isn't handsome enough so I think you can count those two out. The other three are all legitimate suspects at this point.

I've seen all the eps shown so far and it's pretty good. In terms of potential love interests,
like you said it'd be kinda repetitive for the "brother" to again to be the husand, but it's probably gonna be him. In the 1994 timeline, the fake brother ordered a package that had a toy for Go Ara. And in the future, old Go Ara gets a package that's ordered by her husband in the same ep. But maybe that's a red herring, I rather it be the fake brother over that rich mommy issues kid, fuck that guy. I wish it's the Leslie Cheung lookalike, dude's great, but...yeah probably not him.

It's gonna be the "brother". I don't know how anyone could doubt that.

After showing all those intimate scenes with the brother I really doubt they would go any other way, they'd probably just write in a couple gimmicks to throw you off though, but if its not the brother they wouldn't dare write/produce another drama under the same name.

Besides, the "brother" is the most well known and popular actor out of the candidates and is obviously the main lead with the most focus, so yeah haha it's pretty much a given.

I need to quit hanging out with Ailee... if this is Fany I can't recognize her at all. It looks like her but my brain says it's not her. Which one is it?!

Anyway, reading some of y'alls impressions on Reply 1994, what's the consensus on it? I'm interested in watching it but Go Ara is no Eunji lol.

Would be a lot better if Go Ara had better hair. Despite her getting a lot of flak for not being a "real" actor and comments on how she'd never live up to what Eunji did, I think shes doing great. I love Reply 1994 more than I do Reply 1997 at this point.

I had no idea the miss A comeback was next week. HYPE!! Small snippet at M!countdown previews. Sounds good already.

YES MIN. This sounds good, definitely looking forward to some more teasers in the meantime.


Great stuff. Did one guy namedrop David Beckham? How unexpected.

131031 Nine Muses - GUN I was LOLing at their costumes at the beginning, but then they turned around. The Bunny Style we deserved :D

I was expecting this to be awful but...I really liked it. Damn they look good and they all sounded great as well. Also I guess this explains all these selcas (Edit: this turned into a massive post, sorry):

TOP on his solo album;

There were a lot of things I wanted to express through music, so with this album, I personally created the music I wanted to express,” said T.O.P. “I’ll be rising to the stage with a self-composed song.

I wanted the explanation for music to be refreshing. I think it’s very strange, yet very humorous. It’s kind of a combative concept, but I think it will be fun.

Because the music I created is my interpretation of the song, I also gave ideas while making and participated in the directing of the music video. The music video filming is already completed.

I’m not entirely sure exactly when my album will be out, but it’ll be released in November,” said T.O.P. “There’s a chance that I’ll be promoting side by side with Taeyang.
