To ensure this thread won't be closed, you must adhere to several a number of simple rules;
  • 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 thought Jessica's singing was the weakest out of the 4, although Ga-In's english was the worst. Seohyun's got surprisingly good pronounciation, due to the LQ and based on the pronounciation I thought it was Jessica at first. JiEun owns them all vocally (Jessica was flat for her high notes most noticeably). I wonder how they picked those 4 to sing the song, it's a random group to put together.


You couldn't have explained the performance any better. I thought it was one of Jessica's worst performances in a while.

She's never impressed me as that good of a singer. She can keep in tune most of the time and she's got an ok range but her voice isn't special or especially powerful at all, but I agree she's usually better. I think especially the last couple phrases she had to sing were too difficult for her; she usually sounds better because SM (or whoever divides up their parts) understands her limits and leaves all the harder singing to Taeyeon.

Has this thread ever talked about how shitty the headset mics are? How come I can watch a performance where BEAST uses real mics and then SNSD uses those headsets and I can barely hear them? Sistar also used actual microphones if I'm not mistaken.

I can understand some performances require both hands for choreo and what not. A good example would be Love is Move by Secret.

I think my hatred for these headphones has grown after watching the MAMA awards.

All the mikes are shitty, the soundsystems are shitty too. We've complained a long time ago but they haven't changed, and so there's nothing new to bring up really, other than they suck. Although if the margins on these shows are as low as I've heard, they can't really afford to buy new ones lol. I mean, they hardly pay the idols to appear at all; most just do it for the publicity, hoping they'll increase in popularity and album sales.

Song Ji Eun doing better then I thought, I thought she was rather dissapointing on Immortal song(but then again, she had enormous competition) but this song isn't that difficult to sing so I am not that impressed overall and its hard to really judge their vocals by this song.

Seohyun looking nice tho.

I loved the WG performance ^^

Ow yeah, sound systems do suck on music shows, bands who play instruments still aren't allowed to plug em and actually you know, play their instruments, its ridicilous.

I didn't know they got paid to perform. I assumed they just did it for publicity and promoting their albums.

Well, it is mostly for publicity and promotions since the compensation is pretty small. Last I heard each artist gets like $200 per appearance. But, that was before Tae Jin Ah become president of the Korean Singer Association. More detailed article here http://www.allkpop.com/2010/08/how-much-do-singers-get-paid-on-music-shows

About the sound systems. The newer music shows Show! K-music and Kpop Con sound like they have pretty decent sound systems in comparison to Music, Bank, Music Core and Inkigayo. I only quickly compared IU's You and I performances on the different shows though.

-edit ok on a second listen, they sound way better. IU's voice is so much crisper and clearer.

Music shows wouldn't be possible if they were paying much. A dozen or so artists every week, plus building sets for each performance. I'm not sure who foots the bill for costumes, hair, and makeup -- probably the artist's company.

Keep in mind the actual audience for Korean media in general is small compared to what a western show might get -- 1/6th the population of the US alone, while some shows here can also reach Canadian audiences or western Europe. Gotta make ends meet somewhere.

to be honest when it comes to actual singing voice, most, if not all kpop singers pale significantly when compared to dedicated singers.

But to have that kind of body and power in a voice, you generally need to be quite large, so that doesn't really go too well here...

The sooner one accept that CCM's sense of time is just as inflated as Valve time, the less disappointment one experience in life.

Best part of making ridiculous amount of gifs is finding a folder filled with gifs you outright forget making.

On today's MC Christmas collaboration, I thought Sica was the most impressive singer among those 4 actually. Seohyun never fails to impress, she like never stops improving, especially her English pronunciation. I was surprised by how well Jieun sung though, hadn't expected that. Sica had the hardest part and did great, overall a satisfying collaboration.

CCM, what do you think you are doing, delaying Lovey Dovey... Also I do not approve of this hairstyle at all I hope it's just a wig for some shoot or something. She looks like that MC that got banned for gambling or something, he used to be on Miraculous Victory and Defeat and some other shows.

Man Jessicas high note really made me cringe. So many times the average singers in groups go for the high notes and fail horribly, sounds amateurish tbh. It's suprising that so few are actually good live, seems like they should be able to do better with the 5-10 year training they've had.

Yeah. Better to sing what you can handle instead of just belting out high notes that sound horrible.

is the mucore pd still the worst pd out of the major channels? when i stopped caring about kpop he was clearly the worst camera director out of the lot.

and i suppose i might contribute with something...

when i first saw this picture. i’m in love with her. she is… hers aura is like end of the world. we holding the hands together. walk into the beach. stranger. Krystal is stranger. i can’t expression to Krystal’s eternal, quiet, stronger beauty. pose so gorgeous. she build the last castle on earth. with Sulli. i love Krystal too. specially this picture. Krystal is God’s masterpiece.
