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. |

"Hey, there's this site, Team Liquid" "OMG I love that place!"
And then nod very studiously and pull out a little pad of paper with a big list of names and notes. Then you walk away muttering about statistics without getting an autograph.
I don't know why, but that made me laugh way harder than it needed to.

Half the posters here are secretly idols.
Should shoot a tweet to someone like Ambro and tell them to join up.

although I'm beginning to realize most idols do. Eye makeup biggest difference IMO

And holy crap, if no one has checked out the Day By Day perf, Ham has shoulder length extensions/hair. Haven't seen anything that long on her in a while. Also, Jiyeon and Hyomin still looking mighty fine.

Yesterday she had also longer hair, but in a different way. But i like eunjung with this hair and she does not have it only at the music shows

Ham looks like she's either dead or a real doll in that pic. Creepy.
|
her extensions yesterday were awful they literally just clipped hair under her normal hair today they actually blended it in or something so it looks a ton better but i still like the short hair more

So I went back to that 99% asian club again tonight with some of my fellow caucasian friends if anyone remembers my first experience I wrote about. My friend runs a car photography business and had 12 cars coming to the club (mostly Masarati/Ferarri/Aston/Rolls and 1 Veyron). Because it was sort of his event he got us a VIP lounge and tables this time as well as free drinks/tables which was pretty sweet.
I'm pretty beta compared to most of my friends so I was a bit shy, especially since it's a really fob crowd and everyone is rich, or at least pretending to be. My friends basically threw me out on the packed dance floor and into some girls, I had some seriously horrible conversations with these 2 japanese girls on vacation named Eri and Asa. A blessing and a curse, because I had absolutely NO game, but it took 5 minutes to understand a simple broken english sentence in a loud club.
After grinding for a bit and a few more drinks they pulled out the damn kpop so I went back onto the dance floor willingly. Being an almost entirely asian club everybody went nuts as Fantastic Baby came on.. I was one of two white people dancing/singing along (my friends thought I was the biggest fag but they know I like Kpop so fuck it). The other was a white girl, the only one there. She was a 6/10, but a pretty nice body and she was mouthing the words to Bigbang so I knew I had something to initiate conversation with. I awkwardly danced through the crowd towards her and built up the courage to talk to her. Right as I did, 2ne1 - I'm the best dropped... club went insane again. We both immediately started mouthing the words and dancing like crazy, nothing really sexual and not even grinding, but it was the most fun I had all night. Each song that kept coming on was more kpop, giving us a lot to talk about.
They continued the set, the songs I specifically remember being played where GD & Top - Knockout, Shinee - RingDing, 2ne1 - Please dont go (mixed in with some other song but omg this blew my mind, as it's not a really popular song but one of my all time favourites from 2ne1), F(x) -Electric Shock (the entire club fucking lost it again at this one) and some other club type tracks.
The racism was pretty bad again this time, especially from the Korean girls. Korean girls straight up hate white dudes. They are snobby bitches that won't dance with you unless you're rich or a knockout. Preferrably both. I'm generalizing and there is obviously exception, but that's my experience so far. Chinese girls are better but not great. Japanese girls are good, but only because they are just as outcast as white people at the club. If someone did a pie chart of the guests I'd say 40% korean, 40% chinese, 15% other (philipino/thai/viet/japanese), 5% white.
My one friend (the most attractive in our group) had a chinese girl who he was trying to take home with him. She was totally willing until she found out he was only 21 and she was 23. Apparently age is a dealbreaker for asians or something, we were pretty surprised how fast her mood changed. I got the white girls number and her name, turns out she was a club promoter or something. I probably won't call her cause I'm beta and she lives downtown which might as well be long distance.
Anyways, this was a long, slightly buzzed and semi-blogish wall of text.
TLDR: Went to club, played kpop, met white chick who also happened to know kpop, good times had, asians don't like white dudes much.

What the hell does "I'm beta" even mean? I feel like I'm missing a vital part of the story lol

Whoa, interesting experience....that's pretty awesome (except for the asians don't like white dudes, so much for yellow fever or whatever). Glad you had fun though one day maybe you will become alpha and use your extensive knowledge of kpop to show them you're not an evil white ape ;__;

Yes. My friends are all "Bro's" so its terminology they use. Alpha is someone who has an aura of confidence.

Sounds like you met the type of Koreans that are raised to think that "The white man is the devil".

All koreans are raised that way obviously.

After rereading my post I sounded harsher than I meant. When I said racism I didn't mean the malicious type. It's just that Korean/Chinese girls are really hard to convince to dance in a setting like that. They prefer not to mingle outside of their own cultures when they don't have to, whereas other cultures can be more open minded.
