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 agree with talent and charisma, but i'll never forget that terrible incident where she's singing for one of the starleagues and looks like a zombie -_-

She's an idol cause she was trained by a company and makes music intended to a young age set...it's not like here where idols are more of an abstract concept, idols have a pretty strict definition in Korea, and yes iu is definitely one, regardless of what you think about her talents.

I wouldn't say official, the point I'm trying to get across is that your definition of "talented vs untalented" isn't how the issue is really seen in Korea (or anywhere other than your mind really).

They went to some club in NYC (everyone but Sica, who is on her way back to Korea already for her drama). Not gonna post a video because the DJ is awkward as fuck.
Wtf is the person who manages them doing! Seriously, some hole in the wall club when you have the entire nyc club scene to choose from???? I am now beyond annoyed at how dumb they are being handled. I want someone fired!!!!!

And the fact that their very small fanbase in america isn't really the popular nyc night club type. Most don't even seem old enough to drink.
I feel actually really bad for them because well, I doubt they're going to clubs in korea so going to a foreign club as the "mainattraction" must be kinda awkward, especially without club exp.^^
Seems like Daniel Radcliffe aka Harry Potter has some really good taste, I thought they were interviewing me because for me it's also #1 FanY #2 Taengo

like I said, clubbers' reactions were probably synonymous with America's reaction to the letterman/kelly perfs
I don't think this was posted... Nicole retweeted it yesterday, new girl group to debut soon (album to be released next week on the 8th), looks like a really good song!
Also she tweeted ''迷う'' meaning ''Get lost'' (Google) at like 1 in the morning today... Intriguing...
