Something looks different - either some PS or she's been wearing these glasses a lot (or an amazing series of recent awkward photos mid-blink or something). Compare the selca posted above where there are distinct folds above her eyes (clearer on the left) to previous selcas such as this:
Edit:
Compare another recent selca from the past month (in which a fold can be seen) to an older picture. It seems you can see more of her pupils now.
In any case, the only way to solve this case is with an After School comeback pls.
Edit 2:
I think this is the best example of it yet
No doubt. But she has (had?) the best eyesmile in the business. Yes, better than Tiffany. These new photos don't show her excessively smiling, so I can only hope it's still there.
Don't think much will change.
Her eyes completely disappear when she smiles. No evil force can take away this glory.
also, looking at older stuff, sometimes the second fold is there, sometimes it isn't. Maybe she has a very light form of double eyelids. I remember Hyomin using her nails to make them appear after waking up.
Fucking magicians.

This is a disaster. How will we communicate?
edit: just tried with mIRC. Worked fine, so problem is just with mibbit.

yikes, both are pretty decent in their live performances so this is a rarity seeing them out of pitch at the same time.

I liked them on Kpop Star 3, the song is pretty good. Their mini album comes out tomorrow.

So that concert where 16 died after falling through a collasped grate, the promoter commited suicide before being questioned by police. Sad.
Hyped for this. I don't understand why Born Hater got such a lukewarm to negative reaction here. Seen nothing but praise for it elsewhere and my only issue with it is that it was more a collaboration than an Epik High track. There were some great lines in it and the beat was great too.

I like it and I've listened to it plenty of times, but I see room for improvement.
There's a joke to be made about born haters, but I can't be bothered to come up with one.

Eh. It's a decent track but it's more of a hype/diss track similar to those Cyphers the BET gets upcoming rap artists to do for the BET awards.
For somebody like me who's way too invested in the hip-hop game, it's more of a "one listen, hell yeah I can dig it" kinda track. I personally wouldn't put it on rotation just because it's such a one time thing.
That's really my only complaint about it. I'd rather listen to No Makeup or Rose just because it has longevity tbh.
was looking at this: http://kpopkfans.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/exids-unpopularity.html
and saw this picture in the comments, apparently that was their fan meet for up&down not too long ago.
RIP exid.
I totally feel bad for them but thank god BESTie left them, they seem to be doing much better than exid.

Dunno man, I'm inclined to disagree. The more I listen to Born Hater the more I like it. There's a lot of clever puns in the lyrics and there are some lines that are genius and pretty scathing. Although I feel like it would lose a lot of points if people are listening to it without being able to understand the lyrics. Verbal Jint and Mino's verses are particularly good. Although it was short, Tablo's verse was fantastic too, and Beenzino's and.... well they were all pretty damn strong.
The video is awesome too, loved the idea of the seven deadly sins and the vertical image with the small rooms. It's really well done.
Like I said my only issue with it is that it doesn't showcase Epik High enough but that said the beat Tukutz lays down in this is awesome.
I wasn't too keen on it at first but it's grown on me. That was my main problem with it as well, not enough Epik High.

I do agree with a lot of your points. But the song, to me at least, isn't the type of song I'd be looping all day.
I guess to put it in simpler terms, I'd listen to it if it comes up on the radio or my phone, but I wouldn't go out of my way to repeat it immediately after.
Then again, maybe the fact that I don't really understand it could also be a huge factor.

Dude please censor that imagine. My poor heart cannot take it.
South Korea has FAILED
Fuck yes. This definitely sounds like a return to form for Epik High. Can't wait. Just those few seconds of Lesson 5 sound so promising.

That EXID pic has got to be out of context, maybe they arrived earlier than expected or something like that.
It's just too sad to be real, poor girls.

Sounds good!
It is. Literally in the next few comments on the linked page people pointed out that it's taken at an informal fan club meet and posted another photo from those kinds of meetings with EXID:
And one from a more formal/organised fan club meeting:
They're definitely not popular but not as much as that photo would imply lol.
I think there's definitely some misconception about 99. I am pretty sure is was Epik High wanting to try something different and it didn't work out. YG has shown time and time again that they leave capable artists alone to do their own thing (Akdong Musician, Tablo's solo stuff and Epik High's new album) so I really doubt there was much intentional meddling involved with 99 either.
This album wasn't even recorded in-house at YG, he specifically got them to record by themselves so there would be as little interference as possible.
iirc (and this is really really bad recalling) Tablo had some story about yg walking in on production of the album and said some stuff I can't remember. Something about not doing YG sound but they did it anyway because it was already set/planned.
I know a lot of people like to throw around that YG gives artists musical freedom, but you can definitely hear a lot of the influence. Whether that's them trying to fit into the YG image/sound whatever I don't know. But it definitely sounded like crap and I didn't like it.

YG didn't change Tablo or Epik High;
Tablo's solo album was good, and sure YG didn't change either Tablo or Epik High.
But you cannot deny that DON'T HATE ME and UP was some shit straight out of YG's songbook (The rest of the album sounded alright). You can clearly see it, not only musically but visually too. The direction of the music video from the fashion to the set screams YG.

sampler sounds good.
I don't mind Born Hater that much. It just is something different. The mv concept was pretty cool, too.

It's kinda crazy that BESTie have only been around for 15 months and yet they've already promoted five major singles. Meanwhile EXID (plus Dasoni) have had five releases in two and a half years or so.
wtf
wtf
Only for Korean releases:
Bestie's run is pretty normal. Even SNSD had their run with Gee+Genie+Chocolate Love+Oh!+Run Devil Run as singles in 15 months. (although Chocolate Love is a non-album track).
On the other side, if we consider from the end of Hoot promotions up to now, SNSD had 2 albums and 1 mini in 3 years and counting (TTS in-between though).
Edit: by the way, The Boys was released 3 years ago, the biggest comeback ever done. Even if the title song wasn't the best or consensual, this was a humongous Korean release by recent standards. You could have tasted the hype on the air.
