Meh, I like some of their songs, mainly their titles after Sorry Sorry.
I can't stand most of the guys in that band though, it's like they don't think before opening their traps. I especially despise Eewteuk and Shitdung.

not a big fan,but i like su@ju,i don't understand why you hate them so much actually... :wat2:




I don't hate them. But they're generally not taken seriously by a Korean public and I can see why. You have to admit that they're not the most stable group out here (I think that K1bum and H4nkyung departures were really harmfull for their image) and those multiplicitous sub-units aren't helping too.
I don't want to judge, but the members who are among the most popular ones, seem to be kinda douchey (Le3tuk and S1w0n, and of course sh1nd0ng, but he can hardly be counted as the popular one). Just to mention comments about obese girls or homophobic comments about gay people. Of course, they're also situations who are interpreted to their disadvantage, like a S1w0n comment about Dokdo island (I think that he has a right to express his own opinion on that matter, although it wasn't very smart of him).
I have to admit that their albums to "S0rry, S0rry" included were really good - well, de gustibus non est disputandum, but I'm sure I'm not the only one to think like that. At least, they were original. And then, the b0n4mana, mr. s1mpl3 and s3xy, fr33 and s1ngl3 era has started - to me, those songs sound exactly the same.
On the plus side - I kinda like Ry3ow0ok. I don't know why he doesn't get more lines, he has a really angelic voice and seems to be a nice guy overall.

i like some of suju's songs too, ngl. as far as the members...3unhyuk is over the top and dickish, but i do enjoy his dancing. i like rywook, hee-diva (sometimes), zhu m!, henri, and kh-hyun as well. waiting for wookie to come outta the closet :whistle:

and while we're on the subject of questionable SM boy groups, i confess that i do like ex-o. except for that little shit who called soshi ugly. that was the stupidest thing. it's a shame because he's really the only one who can rap well in all of SM imo (except for mayyyybe k3y). but the 3 main vocalists (ch3n, bacon, and dough) have great voices and sound good in their ballads. and i also like k-a-i because he dances well and reminds me of my little bro and i feel bad for him because the same guy who called soshi ugly teases him for his dark skin and he gets visibly upset. they also had a backstory about having super powers and coming from different worlds and i'm a sucker for that sci-fi super hero stuff so i couldn't help but check them out.

i can understand why they get hated on though. but that hate should really be aimed toward SM who spent all the money soshi made into their teasers and forced them together with soshi to promote them. and of course their fangirls because they are annoying as shit like most other oppar fangirls.

anyways, sorry for this little essay. if anyone cares to listen to some of their songs, particularly their ballads here are some links:
bby dunt crey
wut is luv
angel
macheen (this one has some 90's MJ vibes if you're into that)
muh lady
el dora-do (instrumental) (the beginning sounds like something out of a video game. zelda or ff maybe?)
instrumentals of unreleased stuff
^i particularly like emergency (@4:16), metal (@5:15), lightsaber @ 7:41, and eldorado posted above)

note: they have separate versions in korean and chinese but i found ones that are edited together so you don't have to listen to both versions. if you can understand mandarin, there's some heavily accented mando in here since a korean is singing it so beware lol

so that "tomboy" girl group released a teaser and all i have to say is LOLOLOL. these girls may have short hair but taeyeon, sunny, yoona, yuri, and hyoyeon are all more tomboyish than them. too bad their company probably forced them into this image to make them stand out. they'll probably revert back to a feminine concept after debut. they're actually really pretty though, especially the one with greenish hair and pink pants. the one on the chair kind of looks like boA.

ia, this looks tryhard.

taiwan's m1sster is the real deal.

on a side note as evil as sm are, i'm sort of glad they chose someone like amb3r who actually seems to identify or at least be comfortable with the image they sell her as.

well we don't always talk about men here. it's nice to talk about guy groups with other lesbians because talking about it with straight fangirls is really taxing and too biased/always about how sexy oppa is.

but feel free to bring up another girl group or actress. no one is stopping you.

this nugu girl group is really good. they just debuted barely a month ago. they all have really good voices, but they kind of sound the same except for the the blondie who has a more distinct tone. she's my fave. the one that looks like @ilee is the leader. she's from NY and used to do kpop dance covers.


on the right

I still can't believe she's only 26.

I love that dance too, but Bump Bump! is still my favorite.

She looked so good with short hair. ^^

And I have to add these songs to one of my favorite from her in Japanese.

yeah it sounds like a smokier and more mature version of hayi. i do like both, but i like so-jung's (blondie's) better. that rasp is just UNF and that alone makes her stan worthy. she was on the voice btw!

ia, i have a love/hate relationship with them. like their songs are actually pretty good with their dancing and concept, but their fangirls are a little too much. (maybe it's because my school is littered with ex0tics.) i kinda want them to make a comeback since they could actually contribute to the company, but then i cannot deal with the fangirls.

to make this relevant, f(ecks)'s funny or di3 video is coming out and their page says that their comeback is in april. hopefully we can have some sexy bbjung and suggestive gay dance moves from jungli :pray:

it's such a crime that they don't have one yet.

also, for some reason, i figured bbjung would have a heavier accent since she spent less time in the US than sica, but it wasn't.

yes, true. it is relatively heavier than jessica's. but i'm more talking about how i envisioned the "heavier" accent to be and in my head, it was bordering engrish, which it isn't at all.

I really hope so too! :pray: It's about time SM goes all out for them. SM don't push them because they're not the most profitable but they don't seem to understand that if they don't invest more time and money on them, they're not gonna become any more successful. f(x) has kind achieved a lot on their own.

oh right lol. yeah she's fluent. her accent is really distinct, it doesn't sound typically korean-american or like a korean person who speaks english as their second language.
