You're not wrong but it seems like a lot of groups/acts keep dying left and right.
Did everybody sign contracts in 2010 or something? That honestly is the only legitimate reason I can think of.
Not gonna lie, if Sistar died so we can have Kim Lip and Chungha, I'm all for it.
I like Sana but I just can't help but feel that she's now just acting as a living breathing anime character. Like I'm fine with it but at the same time I'm kinda iffy about it.
You have to wonder how much longer Star Empire plans to keep the group going. Jewelry lasted 14 years...
Pendulum's Xuan Yi bias confirmed. RIP Soobin.

looks like Starship made Yeonjung lose weight she didn't really need to.

HYOYEON 효연_Wannabe (Feat. San E)_Music Video
Not bad but I wish there was no San E though, the guy can't rap to save his life. So many good Korean rappers she could collab with and they picked San E...

Concept looks cute, but I'm getting a bit bored of this quirky kpop sound every nugu has been doing lately.

This is so WJSN sounding. Cute, but a waste for Sohee. I can't believe she just debuted 2 weeks ago with that mature R&B jam to just put her now in this cutesy thing. It makes no sense.

RIP in peace TOP.

Also yeah that Elris debut is garbage.

Same thing for Hyoyeon tbh.
Her nasally and whiny rap voice is one of the worst things to ever enter my ears.

The nasal tone of voice during the rap segments. The chorus from a completely different song. What the heck happened here?

I'm hoping this'll turn out to be out to be a Russian Roulette or Rookie-esque earworm. Keeping my fingers crossed.

llehutybro pls, WJSN would never release something this generic. I agree it's a total waste of Sohee's abilities though.
Those gestures are so generic. Spotlight fooled me into having expectations.
Don't apologize, pls.

Oh yeah, let's see which ones I remember
Spica, Wonder Girls, Sistar, Leessang, Crayon Pop may as well be dead since the others won't be singing anymore, T-ara has a termination date, wa$$up was cut in half; and these are only groups.

The visuals for every member of this group are unreal. I feel like they're gonna hit it really big soon.

Goddamn she hasn't been active for a month and she's already out with an apology?
Good grief.
Good grief.
The live version of Wannabe sounds much better. For some reason they pitched her voice up in the studio version which makes it sound weird. The chorus is one of my favourite things this year, I love it, but the rest of the song doesn't do as much for me. It's growing on me though so maybe I'll come around to it.
Overall I think I prefer Mystery but I'm really happy for her because she's getting to do exactly what she wants to do after years of being shit on by people who claim to be fans of SNSD.

Details About BIGBANG T.O.Ps Marijuana Use Emerge; YG Responds
Smoked with a trainee. After a tip-off he was tested at the police training facility he was at.
I'm happy for Hyoyeon, although the song is definitely not my cup of tea, what the hell are those verses? Not a fan of San E either, but I reckon he is the only chance this song has of charting semi decently.
I'm talking about the sound landscape rather than the quality of the song.

Tried these and no go. I've also tried just about every single site I can find, from obscure, probably a scam rackets to no feedback ebay sellers to reputable stores. Nothing.
I'm looking for Wild by 9muses. It's out of print. Does anyone have any idea where I could find this that will ship to America?
Generic girl group song ew
Sohee's company should just let her go solo
That sucks. Fantastic taste BTW, that's a really solid single (it's not Sweet Rendezvous, but a close second in their discography).

Also, how come nobody here hyped Laboum's Hwi Hwi?
I finally got Apple Music and it played on the K-Pop radio earlier and shit is catchy as fnck, I like it lol.
Is there a primer for them btw?

Man I just saw Elris on music bank, cringe-worthy to say the least, Poor Sohee.
Looks great. Reminds me a bit of the beginning of Taeyeon's "Why" video.
I relistened to it recently too and it's a lot better than I remembered. The same with Gugudan's "A Girl Like Me".

The response from the thread was a bit mixed and/or muted but a few people liked the song. This is pretty much everything that was said about it at release. I didn't think much of it at the time but it's totally grown on me since.
I'm not familiar enough with the group to do a primer. Aalow Aalow is a fantastic tune though. Fresh Adventure is pretty solid too.
As for the members, I'm only really aware of Solbin and Yulhee (but definitely not for the reasons you're thinking of you pervs).
Edit:
Gmarket might be worth a shot. I've never used it myself so I'm not sure how easy it is to deal with but as far as I'm aware, it's a reputable site. Perhaps others here can advise.
[MV] SURAN(수란 _ 1+1=0 (Feat. DEAN)
It's just there. Sounds like an acoustic version of a song that could be fun, but IMO the instrumental is to stripped down to match the powerful vocals.
And you can't go wrong with almost any of their singles. My less favourites are their 2015 tracks (Allow Allow and Sugar Sugar), which I guess are cute throwbacks in the line of Lion Heart and that stuff, so check them out if you are into that.
The rest of their single are really good and quite varied, with my favourites being What About You, Fresh Adventure and Shooting Love. Shooting Love is IMO the pinnacle of the quirky pop in the vein of Red Velvet Red releases.
I quite like that they switch it up frequently and don't stick to one sound.

If it weren't for the times you reply to me, I would think I'm your ignore list or something.
LABOUM(라붐
This song is so damn good. Everything works like clockwork. The choreo is a bit basic, but they are really hitting it hard in the live stages but it can barely be seen in this version (not a fan of this dance versions with close ups and so many cuts).
I find it also weird, because they are quite hyped in asianjunkie.

That is an ok option. Though at $40 with shipping the price is a bit steep. I'll have to think on it.

Idk how people are sleeping on Gugudan's "A Girl Like Me" coz that shit is a legitimate banger. It's definitely one of my faves in 2017.
Thanks for the primer! Will take a look at it when I get home from work.
Lmao idk how Laboum slipped under my radar. I click almost every link that I see especially if it's nugus.
As for Dreamcatcher, I think that happened already when Good Night came out haha.
=======
As for Suran's release... I love it.
Suran kicking off the summer with a groovy banger... hopefully everyone steps up and drops the good shit since Sistar(RIP in peace) is dead.

+ a big album with some really good behind the scene pics that look better than the mai promo pics.
They look great, even Qri looks good. Also, long hair Eunjung is GOAT. Can't figure out from the outfits if we are getting ballad, slow jam or banger.
Not a fan, it sounds too derivative. I would probably had another opinion of it had it been their debut. (Or released one year earlier).
Edit: Monsta X doing a "tour" in Europe, for anyone interested.

Even though I love Soyeon (and I guess Boram), T-ara actually looks really cohesive with these 4 members. It doesn't look like they're phoning it in for these last promos. Some of the outfits at least seem to hint that it's more than just a ballad.
I checked out this nugu girl group's MV today and kinda liked the song. If you miss that "Roly Poly" disco sound (hey, it's an "homage", not plagiarism, right?) you might wanna check this out:
G-reyish - Johnny GOGO

I don't know if they're my absolute favorite songs of the year so far, but they're the two I'm always in the mood to hear when they show up on the radio or in a playlist.Boss★Moogle;238910613 said:

Holy F.Why is MLB making rashgua...
Never mind.
Today's Broduce 101 episode featured the concept performances (aka, the original songs). (Only spoilers are knowing the final lineup of each group after the cut and readjustments):
Never
Knock
Showtime
Oh little girl
I know you know
The standouts are Never and Knock.
Never is fantastic, how the hell did Hyuna pass on this? (I don't believe for a second that Triple H produced it for the show). It does help that the guys of this subunit brought their A game. The main vocalist is legit, and he is an independent trainee, will be interesting to see which big company ends up signing him.
Knock is also good, but sounds like something out of the latest Nu'est mini (reinforced by Dongh doing the main vocals).
The rest of the songs are decent, but not my cup of tea, "I know you know" is kind of a trainwreck with all the bottom tier rankings on it.

Took me a few listens, but this song really started to grow on me. It's super chill, which I love. I hope her mini does well sales wise!

Never is amazinger. Absolutely the standout track. Minus the rappers (besides Jonghyun) it's also a pretty good group. God that one note the main vocal did is the Yeonjung moment of the season. So beautiful.
Knock is nice too. It's elevated by Dongho's voice, which does just make it sound like a Nu'est track from one of their albums last year. Bless Daniel on that stage though, he looks so good. Kenta too, but he was barely shown.
The other tracks are indeed meh. Not very memorable songs nor groups. Like last year we had a song like Fingertips at least elevated by some OP girls.
Poor little Moonbok, started out as the memeboi and now he's barely there. I kinda wanted them to play his storyline out a bit more, but it looks like they've given up in favor of others.
Kim Jaehwan (main vocal in Never), Kenta, Daehwi, Kim Yongguk (the sob-story in ep6 got me), Jung Sewoon (guitar kid) and then Nu'est guys Minhyun and Jonghyun are probably my faves that I would like to see in the final group.
I'm so glad they're letting her keep the long hair. Always liked her better with long hair than short.
Broduce 101 - "Never" might be best of the bunch, but I don't think it's that special on it's own. It was offered to Hyuna? I can understand why she passed.
