I've seen that Lizzy clip before, seeing it again just makes me wish she would be a regular on Running Man again. Such a shame she had to leave. But then again RM is too full and she didn't get much screentime anyway.

I usually never believe your comments on music because we have different tastes, but goddamn you were right on this one.
I turned it off during the chorus. It was just so bland and unlistenable at that point I couldn't anymore.
I want to blame this on ear fatigue since I stayed up late last night producing a track but I don't think I can really blame it on that.
Nah. The only reason Mr.Mr. was lauded as terrible was because it was a very safe track. It had interesting production and it was listenable through and through, but it just felt a little bland and safe. Especially when you compare it to their previous release and that 2NE1 came out at the same time with killer tunes. If Mr.Mr. came out right after The Boys instead of IGAB and 2NE1 didn't blow them out of the water, it would've been a really successful release.
Drama on the other hand, is somewhat on other side of the spectrum. Like I said bland and unlistenable at some points. They also don't have any competition on the charts right now so they had a chance to succeed this time. But with this release, giri's right... they're gonna flop like a boss.
Man Red Velvet is so stacked. I'm on #TeamWendy most of the time, but when I see posts like these for Seulgi or Irene, everything goes out of the window. I need one of them to steal the limelight so I can finally settle on one.
9Muses's Drama not exciting, meh. Too little to late. I still think the debut song was the worst one.
Mr. Mr. is not so bad as some people claim, I think what's affecting it is the whole concept perception, and yes, safe song. Compare the concept build up of IGAB, the MV, it's loud, bright, colorful, movement everywhere, dancing. The song is polarizing, as it was the concept fashion. Checking afterwards Mr. Mr. it's completely the opposite, a lackluster and almost monochrome MV, slow build up close to boredom, and a mid-tempo song. This whole thing can ruin the overall perception, even if Mr Mr it was a nice song.

Maybe YG is delaying their new girl group so that Haru can join...

Yay.
There were a couple of rather interesting Netizen Buzz articles pointed out by Asian Junkie in a recent post. One about Best Sojin's struggle to keep her dreams alive and the other about the Hello Venus-esque reasons for the EXID/BESTie split.
Please, please, be good.
In other news, I daren't listen to the new 9M track. I don't think I can handle the disappointment right now.

JYP is the minor leagues of every other company.
The EXID / Bestie thing had a couple of factually incorrect things about it though. Didn't save the logs of the conversation, but it was rather glaring. Some of their assumptions/assertions fall apart quickly.
Netizen Buzz has fallen off quickly as anything close to reliable when in late 2013 they/she started purposefully only translating the inflammatory articles and comments to rile up foreign fan bases for page clicks. At least she has been honest about doing so.
I thought the only thing that was called out as nonfactual was that the group was actually three members, and Hani being included was just a conjecture, which actually isn't far off because she was a JYP trainee too.
Though it's quite obvious she is partial in choosing articles to translate, I'm pretty sure she doesn't purposefully select certain comments, she links the articles as source and you can look up the top comments.
But choosing articles to translate is what she can really only do anyway. It's literally impossible for her to translate every article and comment, so she chooses hot topics and her biases.
Yeah, like Hyorin herself saying she was to be part of the 3-member JYP group with Jieun and Uji (no Hani).
Edit: Damn you Ym1r. Too fast for me even when throwing money at girls on cam.
It's quite telling the arbitrary number of comments she translates. She does make sure that T-ara hate comments make the cut though.
Anyway, she hit rock bottom in that patheticaly embarrasing effort on defending Zico after the "Tough cookie" controversy.
[uguuu (◕‿‿◕｡]She also uses the word "leave" wrong.[/uguuu (◕‿‿◕｡]

NB is a really infuriating place. I am fan of girl groups and basically, I only get comments about how ugly, stupid, boring they are while NB's boy biases get shielded like crazy. And damn she obviously hates T-ara and Nana. She also immediately translates the meanest comments she can find, anytime a new girl group appears too. She was tearing into EXID like crazy and going like "Oh it's a coincidence I am finding all of the these articles..."
Now EXID's a darling group and we get the love. It's hypocritical IMO.

Yeah, is definitely not a girl group friendly place, lol.
This 12MB krystal gif is amazingly hypnotic.

Any given SNSD article is a given for clicks (just look at the number of comments), and for this objective the majority of the translated ones are mostly negatives. Even ridiculous Pann posts and other minor articles with 20 comments are translated.

Choa, you are not supposed to make eyes like that when all you have in your mouth is a piece of paper.
2NE1 gets a pass. I feel like NB mostly consists of YG stans and people who just enjoy drama.

That's a good point, I don't really care enough to go through her translation history to see whether or not she actually likes Block B or Zico or whatever versus something else. But I'll take their word for it.

Hara and Juyeon (Invencible youth hype) with 2 other people are going to host a fashion show.
Juyeon getting work not even one month after leaving Pledis. Ridiculous.
I saw the pics but I didn't know it was that dramatic

Welp, Gaeko & Yankie just blew everyone out with a surprise track that's also the best song I've heard since the new year started.
Forget G.Soul, 9Muses, and whoever else is scheduled to release something the next few weeks.
This is what you should be listening to:
Gaeko x Yankie feat Beenzino/Babylon - Cheers

Hot fire coming soon.
Surprise? I've been posting teasers for the past week.
Expect some more tracks from the Amoeba crew - this song is part of the NEWorkend project.
9muses performances was better today, but yeah, definitely missing something.
But it's ok, everything is redeemed thanks to mnet, that has decided this week to upload "fancams" of the perfromances

Welp, shit about to hit the fan:
After School's Nana and model Hong Jonghyun are rumored have been dating for 7 months
He is the one with Yura in WGM.
Just in case she didn't have enough haters already.
