K-Pop (General Discussion)

Re: Korean Pop

That CSJH MV was hilarious to watch, what's with all those exaggerated facial expressions and looks?! It all very bland and dull.

I have fallen for ZE: A. I liked All Day Long before, didn't care about Here I Am, but this Watch Out single is so much fun and amount of ridiculous dance moves is great (I'm learning all of it as we speak).

CSJH The Grace's sub unit song is out

On first listen it's pretty strong. It does sound slightly f(x)-ish, but just more mature.

I like that. One of them sticking the sunglasses into her eye is hilarious.

Re: Korean Pop

One More Chance by The Grace is probably becoming my new jam, to be honest.

Re: Korean Pop

If I had a similar tattoo it would be written in hangul... I like it, though.

Also... Car wash self costumer is king.

Re: Korean Pop

Also, I love watching videos of K-Pop mistakes (as long as they don't look too painful) and in this video I can't place the girlband. I don't think I've ever heard the song and none of the members look familiar. Also, the dance routine is pretty frantic, haha.

Who are they?

I think it was a special performance for one of the year end shows a couple of years ago. After School's Kahi and UEE, 4minute's Hyuna and KARA's Nicole and Seungyeon were the performers, and UEE and Hyuna were the two who messed up. The full performance is here.

Okay I just checked it. Yeah, she's either drunk or haven't slept for days... It wasn't a bad performance, though. Hm. I feel that I'm distracted by the choreography. It probably made me like the song.

Yeah, she was totally off. I like the song originally but Im sure her choreography in the video enticed people to look past the song if they didnt like it. Hopefully this was just a minor setback because she's usually on point and professional.

Re: Korean Pop

I didn't notice anything bad?

The tiara with the oversized shirt is an odd combination.

Re: Korean Pop

Argh! I have been away for a week have I missed any major goings on?

Re: Korean Pop

Resi12 Well, there's nothing bad, it's just she's randomly pulling her clothes and then she laughs in a strange/uncontrolled way. She's not entirely there.

edit: _hazzie_ It depends... If you're interested in Cube, mark 19/11 in your calendar.

Re: Korean Pop

The performance was fine to me, maybe she was a little tired, but she seemed happy. (I doubt if she were drunk she could still dance like that)

I thought it was HyunA doing the big notes on a Bitter Day, but it's G.NA natch.
