Nice song.
66% is already subbed.
Waiting impatiently.
This should be great live, better with a live band instrumentals.
You welcome.
I'm really enjoying "Sugar Free (Original Edit) (Korean Ver.)" and "Sugar Free (DJ Dion) (Korean Ver.)".
----
I'm looking forward to more from the new WGM couple (Song Jae Rim + Kim So Eun) - they seem quite promising for entertainment and the Dans le Noir-style first date was a good change from the typical set up. With the Yura and Jinyoung couples, this might be the best run the show's had in a while.
I'm happy that the song is actually good, great lyrics as well imo. That's unfortunate that some people will do everything to not understand what the lyrics are really talking about...
yura is adorable, tho the guy is quite passive.
the new couple's style seems great, at least from the previews of next few epis.

And now I remember why I don't look up translations to K-pop songs.

OMG! Youngji on roommate is the cutest thing I've ever seen. When she's trying to talk to sunny... I.. I can't... She's so adorable
Juniel teaser for her new song is out:
JUNIEL-연애하나봐 [I think Im in love] 지.못.미 M/V Teaser
JUNIEL-연애하나봐 [I think Im in love] 지.못.미 M/V Teaser
haha, that's great.
To be fair it fits the style of the song, tho. Crazy because of you is stil way worse. Probably because of the terrible quality.

Q. Lets talk about music first. Lets start with Empty.
Q. Tell us about Color Ring, Kang Seungyoon.
Q. Confession has many fans.
Q. This might be a cruel question. What did you think about B.I and Bobbys activities as WIN Team B in Show Me the Money 3?
Q. How do you feel about the newly begun Mix and Match?
Q. How bad is Seunghoons injury?
Q. Kim Jinwoo, do you have any pressure as the eldest?
Q. Are you getting used to promoting in Japan?
Q. Lets talk about the competition you have against this years rookies such as Got7 and Red Velvet.
Q. Basically, the long-awaited album did well. You are starting your Japan tour on the 23rd.
Wow, I didn't know Nam Taehyun can't hear with his left ear.
Song Minho: This song was a present from B.I and Bobby, who we competed against in TV. Because the keyword of this song is strong, we worked to focus on that emotion. While we recorded it, we tried to be as empty as possible. Instead of being more sad or trying to be on the verge of crying, we tried to be without any strength.
Q. Tell us about Color Ring, Kang Seungyoon.
Kang Seungyoon: This song has a feeling different from songs that come out these days. Even the topic of color rings (ringtones). I wanted to pull out the emotions from songs about ringtones [in the older generation] that I empathised with. The superficial theme of the song is about missing a past lover but this song is actually about regret. The song is about the regret of If I had done that like this
.
Q. Im Him is good.
Song Minho: First of all, the title itself is strong. I made this song as strong as possible because this was my solo song, simultaneous with our debut, and I wanted to make it differently from Winners concept, also I wanted to fully appeal to the public. The song is amusing due to the metaphors in it.
Q. Confession has many fans.
Nam Taehyun: Personally, I like simplicity. I wanted to express myself with just a piano and my voice. I wanted my voice to be delivered well. You could say I recorded this in one take. Thats why I think my sincerity and originality is truly alive in this song. I rawly expressed the sounds of my breathing, the shushes in between my singing, and things like that.
Q. This might be a cruel question. What did you think about B.I and Bobbys activities as WIN Team B in Show Me the Money 3?
Song Minho : Its not a cruel question (laughs). They are dongsaengs we like. While watching SMTM, I encouraged them a lot. I could see them lose a lot of weight during the show so I sympathized with them. I watched them every week on TV and they did really well. As a rapper, personally, I was more thankful. I was also proud of them. They did well in showing the feelings that I would've shown. I was proud of them for breaking the prejudice against idol rappers.
Kang Seungyoon: I felt pride as a viewer. Men are blind in their own cause. I was delighted to see them mature through the broadcast. I had goosebumps when B.I performed really well in the last round.

Q. How do you feel about the newly begun Mix and Match?
Song Minho: We know the feeling all too well so we worry a lot. But they are friends who do well.
Kang Seungyoon: Friends other than B.I and Bobby will improve a lot through this program. I hope they endure this difficult time and mature well with the name iKON.
Lee Seunghoon: (Imitating YGs voice) I hope they endure this difficult time and mature well with the name iKON. (All laugh)

Q. How bad is Seunghoons injury?
Lee Seunghoon: I fell during the concert in Singapore.
Song Minho: He fell hard. It was really dangerous.
Lee Seunghoon: I had my in-ears on and I was filming something while on a brightly lit stage and I fell 2 meters. Its a relief it wasn't worse.
Kang Seungyoon: This hyung came right back up the stage after falling so we didnt know he was in pain. As soon as we were backstage he cried. I was thankful. He looked cool. He sang 2 songs while he was injured.

Q. Kim Jinwoo, do you have any pressure as the eldest?
Kim Jinwoo: The kids grew up well by themselves. As of now, I havent reprimanded them or got mad at them. I think it would be best for them to stay as they are.
Q. Are you getting used to promoting in Japan?
Lee Seunghoon: We were on a Japan dome tour with Big Bang seniors. After we opened for them, I tried hard to remember the repertoire and their talks. There are no difficulties in recording songs and practicing but it is very difficult to talk in Japanese because we need to deal with it quickly. We sometimes talk in Japanese.
Q. Lets talk about the competition you have against this years rookies such as Got7 and Red Velvet.
Kang Seungyoon: I am a fan of Red Velvet. Theyre too fresh.
Kim Jinwoo: You seem to have ulterior motives. (Laughs)
Kang Seungyoon: Because we promoted around the same time, we met each other a lot and I smiled at them automatically. I think their concept was really good. They have a similar basis as other girl groups from SM but they are refreshing.
Lee Seunghoon: We are close with Got7. We are really close with them.
Kang Seungyoon: I wish K-Pop became bigger through our competition against them.
Lee Seunghoon: (Imitating YGs voice) To vitalise the K-pop market.. (All laugh)

Q. Basically, the long-awaited album did well. You are starting your Japan tour on the 23rd.
Lee Seunghoon: Before the album was released, I worried a lot. I worried about having to show something that YG hadnt shown before. I also worried about how to break the image of being the next Big Bang. Fortunately, the reaction was better than expected. I feel that people of a wide age range like our music unlike other idol groups where only young people like their music.
Nam Taehyun: I didnt know that people would love us this much. I am grateful. We have packed schedules but as a group who have just debuted, it is a new experience. There are many things I learn and feel.
Kim Jinwoo: We have gone to many countries through the YG Family concerts. Its difficult to fly for long hours but because it is such a new experience, I like it. I learn many things when I am with our seniors.
Kang Seungyoon: Im thankful for the world tour and other gigs. We will do our best to express our more matured selves in our next album. I think this is the only way we can pay back all the love we are receiving.
Song Minho: Every day is a repetition of surprise and thankfulness. We can get carried away with all these things and all this love doesn't let us settle down in reality. I make sure to have humility every day.

Junghwa really is something else.
The new 24Hours mini EP that they crowd funded a couple of months ago out in just over 10 minutes. Pretty excited to hear what they came up with.
shes a giraffe.
I can pretty confidently say that the length of her neck was not what I was focusing on in that video lol.
Edit: New Ailee's out.

Fierce but the song seems boring.
She looks really good though, seems like she lost weight.
Anyway, downloading the mini right now. I'm hoping there are better songs in there at least.

If you're list is anywhere close to that, then welcome and consider us friends. Otherwise, you better be stanning TTS at the very least coz you know K-Pop is serious business around here.
Lol jk, welcome to the thread!
Also, I take back what I said about my waifu's new song. It was initially boring sounding at first, but I'm blaming the idiot who mixed it. The song is actually pretty good! Not as good as her previous releases, but I like it enough that it's going on my playlist.

I hadn't heard about it before. Clicked 15 minutes into the first episode to see if it's something I might want to watch and Joong Wan from Rose Motel was putting on a good case of overacting. I may have to watch more
Speaking of which, Vox published a story yesterday on DramaFever and K-dramas.
Edit:
The girl Joong Wan was in the scene with is Kim Sa Eun - it was just confirmed she's in a relationship with SJ's Sungmin.

Saw the teaser, was waiting for it. Pretty good.
They're finally releasing an album, too.
A collection of their singles, that is. It got really annoying gathering all those single tracks.

They're so great. Is anyone of note bankrolling/producing them? They've clearly got some serious funding and production/songwriting juice.

Amazing song. But is it just me, or is there something.. off with her face? I can't quite put my finger on it. Not sure if it's just her hair, make up, botox, a massive weight loss, or another poorly done nose job (like Soyeon/Naeun). Or maybe I just forgot what she looks like. Either way, loving the song.
What have they done to Geummi?
Hey, some people apparently like Naeun's nose job.
And Hidali killing it as usual, Whiplash's choreo is awesome.

What do you mean by 'apparently' huh? Is Naeun Defense Force about to mess some people up or what.
edit: actually, what do you even mean by that entire sentence. EVERYBODY IS SUPPOSED TO LIKE IT.

Her face has looked worse for at least a year or two because of weight loss. I think she looks better in that MV than she has in ages though.
