I wonder if it will be similar to the twice youtube documentary which was only interesting because they had to talk about Mina's anxiety issue

Reminder that this is the best girl group song this year, hands down.

When I first heard this song in feb I hated it but then months later I suddenly ended up listening to it all the time and loved it

I know the group and song are kinda' memes and all, but does anyone have recommendations similar to Pop/Stars by K/DA? I know and like (G)I-DLE, which obviously scratches an itch due to the shared artists between both projects, but was looking for stuff beyond them. Anything with an EDM influence and a giant, catchy chorus.

I am not familiar with all groups but something by Everglow maybe?

Can you list what’s releasing in October?

The list I found is basically Blackpink, SF9, WJSN Chocome, Nu'EST Japanese Album, Weki Meki, Dawn, M.O.N.T, NCT, Weeekly, Loona, IZ*ONE Japanese album, Twice and TXT.

I think there's a few more other than those. I'm really interested to see what Loona do now they're definitely out of mismanagement hell, also I enjoyed Tag Me by Weeekly for some reason so interested in them as well. Part of me just wonders though if releasing in the same month as Twice and Blackpink will just eat everyone elses sales lol

I like Lovesick Girls because it's at least a little different and gets away from *the formula* not really a fan of most of the tracks on the album though, the Cardi B track is just an average Cardi verse put in a nothing song? Not sure why they didn't aim to do more with that one.

Makes sense, I don't think there are many other fanbases outside of kpop that come up with guides for how to correctly stream the videos to make sure the views count, and then encourage people to do it over and over non-stop. Also guides for how to correctly purchase the album to get it higher on the charts, and daily task lists. I accidentally read a youtube comment section once and it seemed like BTS and Blackpink fans are in a competition to try and beat each other as well.

edit: I've discovered I really like this song from Treasure, never listened to them before now

Speaking of IZ*ONE, their new Japanese song is... just straight up bad. What is up with that sound mixing?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqsvrV1_XEA

Seems like they went for an intentional sound mixing thing when the lyrics were about left and right? I honestly wondered what was wrong with my headphones when I heard it, doesn't help that section flows terribly. I like cute concept songs but I don't think I ever want to hear this song again lol.

New Weki Meki track seems okay, I don't love it but it could grow on me more

That Don't Touch Me song is real good.

Less good - what is up with Blackpink's choreo? why does every dance involve the same wavey arm moves?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7ONrDab6cU

Also there will be 13 songs on the new Twice album and 6 of the songs lyrics were written by members. Some of their B sides have been great recently so I am pretty excited for it.

Red Velvet are super good and they just seem to keep getting better.

Jeongyeon from Twice is out of second album promo activities, anxiety related reasons according to the official statement. It's good that they're actually allowed to rest and get help but this is the second time that it's happened to a member now. Also, Twice have a track on the upcoming K/DA EP which just strikes me as one of those things they didn't need to do and they should have just let everyone rest instead.

The description on the Loona video is hilarious

quote:

A destiny discovered between coincidence and fate LOOΠΔ has created a wave of change beyond imagination through [#] and has come to realize their true roles; to be pioneers for all of the LOOΠΔs of the world.
To celebrate the New Moon, LOOΠΔ is expecting a new moon to rise. On this occasion, they will hold a Moonlight festival at [12:00], when the moon shines the brightest—a festival where no girl will feel silenced.
LOOΠΔ makes coincidence when destiny collides with fate, and finds her destiny within coincidence and fate to deliver a new message for the Midnight Festival.

And it just keeps going. The song isn't as good as So What imo. it's ok but has what is basically becoming my least favourite kind of chorus. I really like Voice/Star from the album though.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McTsLi-gJo4

Edit - after listening to the whole mini album, I really like it. It’s got great variety and the single track is basically the only song I don’t love. Also it’s weird that it’s a mini album when it has the same number of songs as bp’s full album

Twice performed a B-side from their new album on live-stream last night. People are describing it as retro citypop, whatever that is. I like it, I think Jeongyeon's voice works really well with this song so it's a shame she couldn't be there.

There's some drama surrounding Irene from RV going around - sounds like she was verbally abusive to a photo editor. She and SM have put out apologies. The post that made the allegations was 'liked' by a bunch of people that have worked with RV in the past so people are speculating that this isn't an isolated occurrence. Apparently it's all over social media in SK.

It always sucks when people turn out to actually be assholes, hopefully she can be a better person from now on but from the sounds of it she may have been behaving this way for a while. Also, one of twice's makeup artists had some ill-timed comments put out today about how they've been very kind over the last 5 years so now people are mad about the timing of that lol

As the Irene situation has developed further I have no idea how it's going to shape out. They're talking about delaying the premiere of Irene's new film. And it sounds like it was only SM staff that apologised at first, Irene was only forced to apologise when SM found out there was a recording. There's a lot of people defending her but most of them still seem to work for SM so it's hard to see that as anything other than a PR exercise, especially when it would be difficult for other people to say anything bad without the risk of legal action being taken against them. A Chinese stylist that seems to have worked with a lot of celebrities also spoke out against her

you'd think the AOA situation would have made people realise the impact verbal abuse can actually have on someone

Part of me thinks Vtubers are successful so it could work, but if they're all in the same group I can't see many people being interested in the virtual members over the real members. It would be really funny if the virtual members became more popular than the real members though.

Hahaha holy poo poo wtf I had never heard of this. Apparently they'll reveal her face when they have a number 1 on Billboard. Good luck.

The rabbit even has her own instagram account, and they didn't even put her in the last song they did. https://www.instagram.com/daewang_official_md/

Man it must suck to spend years training to be an idol, and then be told to wear a stupid rabbit head the whole time, meanwhile 3 or 4 members have already left the group and it probably doesn't even have long left.

I'm assuming this will be the single for a repackage of the album. It's really loving good.

According to twitter translators, Nayeon said on vlive+ chat that it isn't for a repackage, just a "gift for Once" also she doesn't think it will be released digitally but they could do it if people like it lol

It's probably a good job they were strict on the mask thing for MAMA and had people wait in cars, because chung ha tested positive for covid and sana from twice has had contact with her recently so now twice are being tested and I guess if anyone comes back positive then everyone that was there last night also needs to be tested/isolate? year end shows starting to seem like a bad idea

Putting a concept teaser out for a song everyone's heard seems pointless, I just want it to be released already.
