Please use spoilers when quoting a post with pictures and/or videos.
When posting large quantities of media (pictures or videos), please begin spoilering after the first piece. Grouping related videos in the same spoilers & labeling is recommended.
No reposting of old material unless justified
Posting any material with little or no relevent discussion accompanying it
No passion-induced flaming of each other because 'x said y sucked' etc.
Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
No 'pagetopping' in any form whatsoever, as it constitutes spam equal to posts similar to 'first'.
No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories. It is creepy, weird, and it dehumanizes the people who you are here to celebrate/discuss.
Normal posting standards that you find throughout the rest of the site still apply and will be enforced more strictly from here forward (2012/03/11)
Due to the poor nature of this thread in the past, temporary two-day bans will occur more than often if people slip up.

I was sitting about twenty feet away from the stage. Her mic was broken FYI and no one gave her one that was fixed during the switch between songs. I thought she was a trooper for carrying on even though she looked hella pissed at one point that nothing was being done to fix the problem.
Thanks for clarification, because at points it did sound like the mic was working and she just wasn't singing into it.

How ironic would it be if they announced that 2PM was breaking up at that time? My guess would be it's an official announcement for the date of their new album. Even though having Jaebom back would be nice, I kind of don't want to see him rejoin so fast because it would only show that the stuff the fans/netizens did after he left works and may lead to crazier things in the future.

Uh huh. A little quick to judge there, aren't you...
"Below is what the court has presented as the content of the members' contracts. The contract has been modified 5 times since their debut, so this is the overall review." 1. TVXQ has received $0 from their album sales till July 2008, and a very small amount after. 2. TVXQ has received $0 from sales of concert DVD's and albums with recordings from concerts. 3. TVXQ received $0 from their appearances in TV programs. 4. For other ways of getting profit, SM subtracts the total amount with all the expenses that the company has paid for them, including clothing, salary of company staff, stage preparation, rent, food expenses, and etc., which only leaves a fraction for the members of TVXQ.
I know tons of people are outraged, I probably would be too if I cared enough, but honestly, why on Earth would DBSK even sign a contract that was this outrageous? Something is probably missing from all the details because I doubt any of them are that stupid to see how this would be remotely fair for them at all. Did they just blind sign a contract? Bleh.

do we have some nice photos nevergg?
Yes, please check my blog ^^ Seventy six photos, plus forty five of SHINee. I was insulted by IU's boring and unenthusiastic performance. She didn't seem to want to be there at all.

I actually think IU was better this time around compared to her performance at SF finals. God, she looked like she wanted to just bolt that time immediately.

Wow apparently she was so bad that I can't even find a single youtube video of her performance. I wanted to see what all the rage was about. Oh well.

Yep, I would have put her video on the IEF thread if I could find it. But I can't find it anywhere, not on youtube, not on korean torrents.

that almost seems like contracts the railroad industry employees had back in the 1900's when the companies deducted their paychecks from living expenses including room, clothes, and food.
it seems to me SM was subsidizing their losses with the money that DBSK should have received.
the thing about this whole mess is that here's SM who makes stars out of kids. The kids are so star-struck that they sign whatever contract that is given to them. add the fact that their managers are employees of the record company, you're going to get musicians who will have some time in the limelight for a few years, but with pennies after they are done as entertainers.

So the best selling artist in Asia gets paid less than progamers?

Regardless, that's just ridiculous, further proof to why SM = kpop slave drivers. T_T
