I'm increasingly confident that Hyo will beast all physical challenges and strength contests on IY.

Gah, so adorable. Good CF. I expect something amazing from the Goobne one, but that's a neat idea.

Oh Sunny ~ Also K-Pop Gaf it's been ages hope things are going well <3

Yo.

Sunny back in Invincible Youth 2. She is going to do a heap of gif-worthy stuff, no doubt.

 

[morningbus]

I tried figuring this out last night, but couldn't really work it out. So maybe someone in here can help me:

Do the women in a group like Girls Generation actually make money? I mean, I see they do a ton of product endorsements and some of the members even have individual deals with yet more companies, but I'm just thinking about how many people need to get paid in this situation.

I imagine they have to deal with the same kind of setups as other groups, with managers, record executives, etc. getting a significant portion of the their profits. Then they have to split whatever they have between 9 people?

It just seems crazy.

Very nice

 

[Biscuits]

And yeah, even though I still haven't seen the second SNSD RM episode yet, all signs point to team Taengoo and Seohyun being the overall winners. I await the avatar you have for me Biscuits and I shall wear it with shame for the next month.

Mwahaha...

Spoiler

I don't think anyone of us on team Taengoo really prepared anything anyways, so you're off the hook (for now...)

I hear they're at least millionaires by now, which probably isn't much when compared to the biggest western artists but is still pretty good.

Don't know how accurate this is but it seems like this guy has some solid figures: http://oniontaker.tumblr.com/post/10841653710/i-remember-last-time-somebody-asked-you-about-how-much#axzz1bBoE8cwC

Thanks for that. Really interesting to read. I can't imagine that every member gets an equal share of the group's profits, though.

 

[TheKaeptain]

What about it? That he does back flips instead of front flips? I would have done the same, it's probably faster.

It's harder because you can't push off.

Differs from group to group but SNSD members put the earnings from their individual deals in their own pockets, so Yoona's probably on top in terms of money.

Gary's duo. The albums Asura Balbata, Hexagonal, and Library of Soul are all sensational.

So I listened to some of this on Itunes, it's very very very good.

Yup. Seems better to do it this way then, sharing individual promotions with the group, which I think T-ara does? Or maybe it was Secret.

 

[Dice]

Are those bruises under her knees? She has one on at least one knee in the MV, you'd think they'd spend 30 seconds to cover that with makeup or something.

I just went back through that site. Sadly, I think the right side is a scar. Not sure about the left side, that is new.

May - Ouch!

June - Not done healing, looks tampered with, possibly making a scar later.

Sept - Not so bad. Makeup? Maybe leggings make it look darker...

October - New bruise on other side

Bruised/scarred knees or not, her legs are hot!

4minute shares earnings from individual work, or should I say Hyunah shares.

That is just sad and unfair. I don't see the other girls doing jack shit on their own to make up for it.

Jihyun is in a drama now but yeah for a long time none of them had anything going. I always said they must love her for bringing in the dough and that's why they all seem okay with it being Hyunah & The 4minutes.

 

[Baby Milo]

are you guys seriously analyzing bruises and scars?

weirdos : )

 

[Dice]

Sympathy is weird? Okay, sociopath.

Spoiler

Sports fans keep track of injuries, and Kpop has a lot of similar dynamics to sports.

[Alta1r]

Aight, The Boys is definitely moving up the ranks. It's got a way of sticking in your head. I agree with Ashhong overall though, the song is pretty sexy except the chorus.

On that note, anyone know of a way to get the Korean version of The Boys and the Japanese version of Mr. Taxi on iTunes in the US? I am an iTunes n00b and have been unsuccessful for the last twenty minutes trying to find these two songs.

Also, did Phono get permabanned??

Secret's Reaction to SNSD's "The Boys"

Girl group Secret voiced out wonders of awe after watching SNSD's music video for "The Boys."

Through the OSEN interview on October 19, the members of Secret expressed their thoughts on SNSD's new music video. They said, "We saw SNSD sunbaenims' (address of respect for seniors) music video today. Even to us, they were so awesome."

Secret's Sun Hwa said, "SNSD was so beautiful in the music video. I thought, 'This is SNSD,'" as she put her thumbs up.

Ji Eun said, "The director for our music video and SNSD's music video is the same person. He has shot our music videos since our debut but this time, he also shot SNSD's music video. The director shot SNSD's music video before ours so we joked, 'Do you like the SNSD unnis more than us?'"

Hyo Sung said, "The fact that we could stand on stage with the SNSD sunbaenims is such an honor. We know this is a great opportunity and we will try very hard."

Secret released their first official album "Moving in Secret" on October 18 while SNSD released their third album "The Boys" on October 19.

I'm pretty sure the only SNSD songs on the US Itunes store are The Boys and it's Instrumental, the album isn't on there yet so you'll have to wait.

Also, did Phono get permabanned??

Wasn't he a junior?

Gender thread

Gender reassignment. I guess if he was a junior it might have crunched him. I ain't seen the post he made, though.

Ah nvm I was wrong, I didn't see that Itunes filters results based on what section you were coming from. Kinda dumb.

Alta1r if you just search the store for Girls' Generation it'll come up.
