Genuine question, why they're called 10cm, I mean how that name came up for a duo?
It's the difference between their heights.

Making upskirt pictures.
And the new member Summer
"Summer is known as 10-second Suzy, a nickname that refers to the fact that when people see her, they think they are looking at miss As Suzy for about 10 seconds."
Hmmm. When it comes to looking like Suzy, I think that Lovelyz member wins hands down.
hayoung tho

I want to say Minzy but I'll go with girl from Epik High's Spoiler MV.
Since Jennie and Jisoo have already got some exposure through YG songs, I was going to suggest it's Eunbi this time - but I see she's left the group. So I'm going out on a limb and say Miyeon.
It'll be Jennie though
Jang Hanna imo

Donghyuk will be the next. Team B still alive.
OMG .. ok going to make a new post for this photo she uploaded on insta
She looks hot. I would.
Disappointed about the lack of news on the concert we attended. And it doesn't seem like she will perform anytime soon in Korea
WHY, WHY SHE ABANDONED USSS!!
EDIT:
We don't really consume tea in Brazil. We are huge coffee drinkers (of course, when Portugal came and raped our ass they used Brazil as a coffee land for the world).
I always wanted to get into tea but lacked the chance and time to look it up what would please my taste.
I was randomly cycling and decided to try something new (instead of buyin just bottled water), that's when I found out the amazing taste of this tea.
I just got those as replacement for water.
Not sure if serious.

Christ I'm glad I don't live in China/Korea/Japan sometimes. Jesus Christ. I guess this is what happens when nobody speaks English and you can't communicate with the rest of the world and have never met a single person outside of your own ethnicity at any point.
Song should be different from the tease I guess, otherwise it's just a random electro pop music you can hear on some clothing shops.
Nope.
SM Hallowen party, soshi highlight. Who slayed?
Seohyun wins this one

I gotta stop watching these. I'll be hoping she gets to debut solo someday, and that it'll be a hell of a lot more interesting than these videos. She's capable, we know that. Just need someone with better taste and sense of direction to take the reigns.
Not surprising that this happened. Have seen a lot of yt comments about the n-word being used in kpop from people who don't realise it's an actual Korean word. One would hope that whoever censored it would do some actual research before censoring, at least more than the average yt commenter.
Namedropping another artist, particularly one from another company in the first place is lame. But yeah, when it's bullshit it's even worse.
It's BoA's birthday everyone!
Welcome to the 28 club Boa.
I am once again reminded of the fact that I am older than her...
Seulgi playing some rhythm game at the party. Definitely slaying. Disappointed that all 4 went for the same outfit though. Seohyun and Yuri had the best outfits of the evening.
1) dokish only responded in a joking manner because he was jokingly called out first. If you have such an issue with people making light of a serious situation then the brunt of your ire for that should be directed at whoever it was who named dokish in the first place. I personally am of the opinion that there is no situation that is too serious to be made fun of. You just got to know your audience. That has always been dokish' biggest problem, not realising that most people don't want to hear or read every stray thought, opinion, or joke that comes to his mind. Either way, this was one of his minor transgressions.
2) The only problem with my comparison is the differing severity of the issues. It was still valid. You even reacted in the manner as I would expect from the kind of example I used. You referenced a video of a white guy behaving in the manner you expect, as if that somehow affirms your stance.
3) The claim that by defending dokish I am associating myself with his behaviour is pure bullshit. But I guess in your opinion all defense attorneys are criminals...
That thread...
I have to say I feel somewhat guilty for seemingly tipping Tenck over the edge. The final question in that poll was most definitely intended as a joke made at dokish's expense. I would have hoped that was perfectly clear. I think it's safe to say nobody was condoning what he did.
That thread got me back to listening to K Pop if you can believe it. I added Dokish to my ignore list, so now I'll probably come back and post like I regularly did.
The K Pop community as a whole has been one of the most active and well behaved people I've known on Gaf. Was a shame that one single dude pretty much killed my involvement with it, but that's how it ended up.
So without dwelling on that anymore, I'd like any recommendations you guys could give. Want to see what I've missed out on. Last thing I remember hearing was Miss A's Independent Woman album (which I thought was awful).
Man this is awesome. I've never really looked into Spica, but I guess I need to!
Full album is great, check it out. Don't care too much for their post Hyori era though.
You are going to have to tell us what are your tastes because there has been a lot of releases since then.
Edit: If there was one place where I didn't expect to hear the soundtrack of a random (an awesome) NES game, that would have to be a k-pop fancam
Also, an hilarious little clip from strawberry milk's meet and greet. I'm actually surprised that they don't check the comments beforehand.

WOW!!! So I just found this thread.
But it's great to read and learn more about K-Pop. I'm a fan but not as big a fan as most on here but I enjoy a lot of the music and appreciate a lot of the talent from that side of the world. I am sure I'm outdated in regards to the latest and greatest here but I'm a big fan of Taeyang, 2NE1, G-Dragon to name a few. My daughters are in love with A Pink and Girls Generation. Anywho before I keep rambling on and coming across like a certain someone whom I'd rather not name again. Can someone point me to sources for more recent stuff? I keep up with everything basically from what I've seen on Youtube and I'm sure I'm missing out on a lot of stuff here. All I really care about is the music aspect, don't really wanna see all the other photo-op stuff. Thanks guys.
Mainly because of Dokish and his creepiness in the thread yesterday.
Oh god. That's two years ago. Where to start.
Firstly, there's the Second Coming in the form of BESTie and Red Velvet.
We've seen the rise in profile of Girl's Day (1 2) and AoA (1 2). SNSD put out a divisive track (though some people are liking it more after repeated listens) then followed up with a flat one and a few months later Jessica was kicked out of the group.
Miss A hasn't done much since.
Truthfully, a lot has happened. What groups were you into before?
-----
Edit:
Let me point you in the direction of AgentChris.
I used to listen to pretty much everything. Whether it was guy groups or girl groups, I'd hear it all.
If I can find anything new that'd be great, which is why any recommendation is welcomed.

Thank you kindly.... I am beginning to realize I may be spending a lot of time tuning into all of this... Didn't realize there was so much.....
At the bottom of the OP is a list of the best songs from the first half of this year as voted by the thread. Might be a good place to start.

K-pop is as much a visual medium as anything.
The easiest way to keep up with all releases is to subscribe to everyones youtube channel! but that's not that easy.
You can read reliable news sites like soompi.com and http://www.dkpopnews.net/ They both have RSS Feeds you can subscribe too, to.
There are the weekly music shows too, most major artists will make a "comeback" on there.
Truth is you need to probably combine all 3. Or read threads like this that aggregate news. There's also a lot that never gets post but is left on IRC.
Oh and that doesn't include the instagram/twitter/facebook media either :|
I forgot that the OT6 OP doesn't have specific artist playlists any more like OT5 did. If you go to that post it may be outdated by a few months, but it'll have playlists for each of the YG artists you mentioned.
Doesn't that Microsoft commercial have the I Am The Beat chorus in it? So a radio station is editing a song that is used unedited in a TV commercial from one of the biggest companies in the world ahah
After School's Japanese album Dress to Kill is the best kpop* thing released this year. f(x)'s Red Light is very good as well.

Thanks for all the input guys. I originally found out about K-Pop from that song Bubble Pop (all on youtube) and kinda have been finding randoms ever since. Found a bunch of Wonder Girl tracks my daughters and I perform around the house occasionally. My wife is in love with Taeyang's older stuff (wedding dress, I need a girl) I kinda like the Ringa Linga stuff better and now my daughters are pretty addicted to Girls Generation, G'Na and 2NE1. I'm just trying to broaden my scope a little more and give them more variety. I'm kinda vibing that track Psy with Snoop Dogg. You guys have given me a lot to look over now. Tonight should be interesting when I get home LOL!!
God damn. How did I forget this. SO good.
There's no joint performance with CL tho, right? Her part is probably the best thing I've heard on a kpop track this year.
Oh, and I'm still immensely mad that they did not properly use that beat from the teaser for a real track.
Fuck that shit.
Sign me up for their fan clubs.
Oh, also, not sure if you were into KARA before, but if you were - since you last looked they lost two members and gained a new one. Nicole is going solo, Jiyoung is wanting to be an actress. A "competition" was held for a replacement and (even though I personally feel Somin is the better performer,) Youngji was picked - she's turned out to be an entertaining addition.
Mamma Mia is the song they came back with.

Edit: And since I see you've changed your avatar:
T-ara - Number Nine
T-ara - Because I Know
T-ara - Do You Know Me
T-ara - Sugar Free
Jiyeon - Never Ever (watch the stage performances over the MV)
Hyomin - Nice Body

Taeyang only performed it solo so far.
With the teaser are you talking about the last 10 seconds or the sirens?
Rise Intro
OP is a good starting point, but I will post here some of my highlights in the last couplle of years:
Fake edit: Decided to underline the highlights since the list ended up being more overwhelming than what i expected.

T-ara back as 6, went full electro - Number 9, Sugar Free
KARA lost two members (;_ but added a new one, keeping their trademark sound in the process - Mamma Mia
Orange Caramel is still the best subunit ever - Catallena, Abing Abing, My copycat
After School was musically exiled to japan but with great results - Heaven, Shh
Dal Shabet went full retro and it was glorious - Have, don't have, B.B.B
IU is still great in everything she does - Red shoes, Friday, Sogyeokdong
Younha still flawless - The real reason why we broke up, Home, Wasted
VIXX putting other boy groups to shame with their concepts/lyrics/choreography/songs - Hyde, Voodoo Doll, Eternity, Error

Jiyoung ;__;
She was my favorite from Kara. I'll definitely be following her stuff.
Finished through those songs you posted. Only two I didn't like was Mr. Mr. and Hush. So sad Miss A's song was really bad. They were my second favorite for a while.
Now onto the bottom section of the OT.
I'll throw some of my favs out there:
BTS:
BTS - Hormone War
BTS - Coffee
BTS - Tomorrow
BTS - Spine Breaker
I love pretty much all their stuff, especially the last 2 albums.
Girl's Day was already mentioned.
Other random stuff I liked this year from the top of my head:
MR.MR - Big Man
Fiestar - One More
Purfles - 1, 2, 3
Taeyang - 2AM
f(x)'s "Red Light" is one of this years best albums. I also enjoyed Hyuna's latest mini "A Talk".
