IY season 1 wasn't filmed in HD (or at least not edited to be broadcast in HD), that's why even the official videos on Youtube don't look that great. They also hosed up the aspect ratio.

Yeah it was shot in SD, but the 2 part 'visit japan' episode was shot in HD and it's one of the better episodes.

I have all of the Invincible Youth episodes if any of you need them. Even have the raw, unsubbed which are 576p and 60fps.

Ah gotcha! I do remember scouring for the best ones I could find at the time, as bad quality rips do my head in. Alas a poor memory never helps me remember exactly what I have.

I would be interested in some unsubbed episodes for #39 onwards. There were no sub teams that did those and we only had the basic KBS subs for those, so I'd be interested in seeing if we could do something nice with those.

I had converted the KBS hardsubs to softsubs for episode 39. Figured out a pretty good way to use an OCR on the hardsubs but I got busy with work and kinda forgot about it. I'll try to throw these episodes up on my seedbox this weekend.

This weeks My Little Television (episode 41) is probably a good episode to check out if you want to get into it. Watching Gfriend invade and embarrass a man's life by accident, with the chat egging them on, is pretty hilarious.

Good solid episode. Even the bombs were turned into something entertaining.

Jung Saem-mul is so much better with a MC.

I though Gura's comments to JSM were snide but his show was the most fun. I'm surprised that the home shopping networks would be so candid about their business.

Bbaek-ga was the worst but his arrogance played well. The "Santa" photo was uncomfortable. I thought his brother-in law was LKS for a second.

I don't like new idols being wallflowers but Yerin was borderline bratty. With no editing MLT can be a dangerous show for idols.

The Korean narrative of hip hop is to be expected. His guest refused to dance in front of the camera.

Invincible Youth is the most feel good thing. Definitely watch it. Also I'm pretty sure you dont need to pay money to access the download on that snsd site, when I downloaded the episodes from their forums you just had to make 50 throwaway posts on some random threads and you'd have access.

Hey guys, I'm coming over from Trad Games and I thought I'd post here to see if I could drum any interest up:

I'm running a Crime Scene themed game on Discord in the upcoming weeks (date will be provided soon) and if you're a fan of Korean TV variety like that, come check out the thread and read how to be involved if you'd like to be!

Basically, I'm running a Crime Scene game but an internet version which will be a bit different but have a lot of the same aspects and themes only done through an over-the-mic format, come check it out! I only have 6 slots so I'm going to be picking the best applications for it, and yeah, we're pretty chill people. Thanks~

Pretty solid Conan escapade there, though I think it peaked early with his Korean teacher. That one segment was the best international Conan moment I can recall, though I'm sure there was sweet stuff during his Cuba and Iceland trips. I don't think I'll ever get tired of Korean women screaming or just outright swooning while meeting a celebrity.

There was lots of solid String Dancing in there, but I really think they missed a great chance for Conan to do his cat growl and pawing to AoA and get cat movements right back at him. Admittedly a lot of that is just me wanting to see more AoA though.

I'm signed up for Crime Scene as well, hope I can get my Detective Conan on.

The Conan parody k-pop song is catchier than most of the current crop of k-pop songs.

Also the Korea ep was excellent.

I was hoping for him to interact with some people from Running Man or get shown Starcraft by Yohwan or something, basically just fully integrate himself with more of the Korean celebrities I've seen on various shows, but JYP filled that niche pretty well on his own.

Now we can only hope that Jack Black is on Conan soon and they both just talk about Korea nonstop.

I like that Conan pointed out that a little over 60 years after being pretty wrecked by a war that involved the biggest military forces on Earth at the time basically using them as a staging area and way to wage war by proxy, with all the devastation you'd think that would cause, they're now the 12th biggest economy on Earth. I mean, I wouldn't call South Korea a perfect society, no country or society on earth is perfect, but when you have that kind of turnaround that quickly goddamn you're doing something right. It's something I just hadn't really thought about until he mentioned it in those terms, although obviously not getting into the nitty gritty of the conflict.

I just listened to the EP and it wasn't that great. I'll probably warm up to this song but the rest is a mixed bag. Not really feeling it though.
