I have decided that I will not marry Nicole. She lacks an essential quality that I look for in a woman.

Then I guess you like her part of the time, if you're okay with Hara-level, because those seem to come and go with Seungyeon. (perhaps depending on how much sleep she got lol)

Edit: Soyeon, Qri and Jiyeon will visit WGM

I don't particularly like 2NE1, but 2NE1 TV looks interesting enough for me to check it out.

No one's "good" at that job, since it's simply about reeling off platitudes to connect segments with some cheesy jokes now and then.

Yuri and Tiffany's jokes seemed especially cheesy to me. Yuri was better at keeping it straight, but Tiff was just dying with embarrassment a lot of the time.

I dunno, he's a brat, but I'm pretty much a fan of anyone who speaks up against their own fans in this kind of environment.

And no offense to anyone from the country, but 99,9% of the cray cray ELFs seem to be from Vietnam.
Yeah I'm there right now and there's this music on demand channel and Super Junior/Shinee is playing 80% of the time. According to a friend that lives here though, Super Junior is starting to be less popular.

He kinda reminds me of YG. Maybe its because of aging as well.

SNSD online museum: http://www.intothenewworld.net/. Looks pretty thorough and professional from what I saw.

On another note, its amazing to me that fans are willing to put so much money and effort into what's essentially free marketing for kpop groups. The fans are really willing to do the marketing themselves. I guess you kind of get the same thing in any loyal fanbase, with fansites and conventions and stuff, but it doesn't feel like in-your-face advertising. You don't really see fanmade Minecraft billboards being put up in a conspicuous downtown location like what Soshified did. I wonder if this is because of the total lack of promotion kpop groups have in western countries, which causes fanbases to do it themselves to 'fill the void'. Or just something popular with teenage girls because they're familiar with the promoting medium lol.

It is vaguely crazy, but I think it probably has something to do with the ceaseless flow of (free or cheap, ordinarily pretty cool and often great) content that the industry produces. There might be some sub-conscious impulse to reciprocate.

It's no different from Lady Caca and her army of Little Viral Marketers.

Moments where I find myself stunningly beautiful

Taeyeon: When I put the brightness on my phone to the max. When I raise it all the way to 9th level.

(insert the greatest ahjumma laugh ever)

Jessica: You can only see her eyes and nostrils!

Infinity Challenge beasting the ratings.

http://www.allkpop.com/2011/08/infi...atings-glow-viewer-praise-with-rowing-special

The MBC Sunday variety program ‘Infinity Challenge‘ has been enjoying increased viewer support thanks to its heartwarming ‘rowing special’, which took place over seven episodes.

The latest episode, which showcased the finale as the 10 ‘Infinity Challenge’ members and guests completed their 5-month-long odyssey to become professional rowers, hit 17.9% nationwide ratings. This rating trumped its competition and solidified ’Infinity Challenge’s’ place as the ‘Nation’s Variety Show’.

The rowing special has been drawing praise for its ability to tug at the viewers’ heartstrings. The special has also displayed the members’ hardships and toil as they practiced for the competition, which drew teams from around the world.

Viewer response has been overwhelmingly positive; the MBC website even crashed for a brief moment following the final episode’s broadcast due to viewers rushing to leave comments. “It was a continuing melodrama,” said a comment. “Applause to everyone who worked hard” and “I teared up at the emotions, the best” commented other viewers.

Bear in mind I am ranking those guys by stage performance as well.

Beast: Soom, Lights Go On Again, Lightless and then their new Fiction and Fact album can just be taken as a whole. It is the best boyband kpop album, only Tracks 3 & 7 are a little weak but they still fit in among the rest, which are all fantastic.

Check out this comeback stage: http://youtu.be/ANHYHH7oZ0o a highlight moment from last year
When they broke into subunits they were still good: http://youtu.be/b0br8irJbqw http://youtu.be/4q3wuKyh9v8 http://youtu.be/QsXDMb37L18

And they are fun guys on shows. Really, they have all I'd expect and want in a guy group. They remind me of Big Bang before they forgot how to be Big Bang (they are better split up now)

Shinee: Lucifer, Electric Heart, A-Yo, Love Pain, Ring Ding Dong, Jojo, The Name I Loved

Dalmatian: Their entire mini-album. No kidding. MC Mong produced it and really put his heart into it. It's the best boyband mini album. A work of art. Track 7 isn't as good because it is their first single added as a bonus track.

Lost all credibility.
It's weird how when you're first getting into a group, they each just seem like equally cool people in their own right, but over time you start to notice there's an "odd one out" in the group.
