Re: Jungle: I watched a few episodes while flicking through the TV with family, and I honestly could not stand some of the over-reactions/exaggerations they do for TV. Like, there would be a small creek running over due to the tropical rains of that area, and they made a big deal about DANGER OOH and really dramatized one member almost falling over in the stream. Not a river. Like, knee-deep. They used it to say poo poo like "THEN I REALIZED I WAS IN THE REAL JUNGLE" (hah right). It was cool to see some female idols/actresses (none TOO famous) in the wilderness w/o makeup, but other than that... Maybe it was the particular episode I watched? Perhaps other seasons were better? EDIT: Pageking, so some context. Archer2338 fucked around with this message at 04:02 on Jan 5, 2013 |

Yeah, watching the first ep of season 2 and I definitely get that vibe. The first 30 minutes seems to be a recap (precap?) of the whole show, and there's lots of playing up the danger. The highlight of danger? They're getting into boats but see a storm (miles and miles away). The water gets choppy, one boat capsizes (they're 50 ft from shore, everyone wearing life vests). There's a whole lot of "ah gad stop the camera we have to go rescue them turn the boats around!!!  " So yeah, don't see myself sticking with this show.

Kim Sori's MV teaser featuring her cameltoe rated 12+ So with all the insane reasons they use for banning videos/songs in Korea(any use of the word 'club', any use of the word 'alcohol', even if they're decrying it, "Use of slang that would be damaging toward the national psyche", "going against social norms", "Too sexual while driving", etc.), I guess this is somehow wholesome fun for the whole family. Oh MOGEF, keep up the good work

She also had the whole fake "leak of nude picture" thing right? Where the agency purposely sent out articles that said pics had been leaked from her phone, and it was a pic of her shirtless, laying down on her stomach (and hiding the sensitive parts) and baring her back?

Has any of the group managers ever been arrested for assaulting fans? I found a few gifs of them slapping or beating fans, this is just to give an example: What I find most strange is that they're all managers of male groups, I would kinda understand such reactions from a girl group but males?

JYJ got into hot water over slapping their stalker fans before. The way the told it sounded pretty scary, with girls breaking in to steal their underwear and watch them sleep or something like that

I just finished up the Infinity Challenge Alaska/Bungee jump arcs that followed the Gil crimes special and it was pretty ok. The bungee jump segment didn't have a lot of air time or got edited out heavily, but the Alaskan segment was cool. These type of IC eps are the ones I enjoy, the cast just hanging out and having some laughs. Nothing crazy hilarious, but it was entertaining to see the IC staff in Alaska. I didn't know the episodes following immediately were HaHa's return to TV after he finish this military duties though. Going to add those episodes to the queue. E: It's not noticeable how YJS holds together the IC staff, but you could feel his absence during the bungee jumping segments, that entire portion really felt lost. E2: Found this when I was milling around the site that has the IC links, Leessang is going to have a tour in the US later this month: quote:The hip-hop duo will be performing in New York and Los Angeles. They will be in New York on January 24, 2013, and in Los Angeles in January 26, 2013. Female vocalist Jung In will also be touring with them.

Ep. 195-197, I think someone was compiling a list of all streamed IC eps and I thought the link was posted here, but it might have been in the RM thread. Either way, here's the listing: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ajClhYXtgHMJN-HapYdX7xiEQS0_Txb61t3JtWBWias/edit?pli=1

Oh I remember that. And the failure of the bungee group is a running joke for a long while  And like Lyer, I really liked the sort of fooling around they did in Alaska. Barefoot races in deep snow leading to bleeding feet? Yup. Not stellar, but I personally really like it. It's better after you're familiar with IC sort of, though.

Meanwhile the real conscripts are stacked four to a room, eat pretty crappy/spartan meals, and are scraping ice and snow off the streets on base using cardboard with little to no cold weather gear. No sympathy for Cleberty Corps.

Pretzel Rod Stewart posted:I'm new to kpop fandom/Korean TV--what the hell is Beatles Code? It's just a talk show dressed up in a Beatles aesthetic. All of its segments are loosely inspired by Beatles songs, or are kind of puns based on Beatles songs. But they just have celebrities on and interview them like any other talk show.

All of SNSD is going to be on the last episode of Strong Heart: quote:According to a representative from the show, Girls’ Generation have been invited to participate in the last filming of the SBS talk show scheduled for January 17th. All nine members of the group will appear to discuss their recent comeback with “I Got A Boy” as well as stories from their time away from the K-pop scene. I'm actually really excited for this, SNSD is probably one of the few idol groups that are entertaining by themselves and in a talk show format. I hope they film RM during this promotions cycle, they're always a blast on there. Lyer fucked around with this message at 18:21 on Jan 10, 2013 |

Even the other members of the group say she's like a 12 year old boy. As cute as it seems, I sure it wears off when you're woken at 3 in the morning because Yoona's found a chicken foot, stuck a piece of corn on it and just HAS to show you how funny it is. Thought I'd like to hear more about this burning potatoes thing.
