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.

You mean the music shows? Mnet M!Countdown (90 minutes) - Thursday 6:00 PM KST KBS Music Bank (80 minutes) - Friday 6:05 PM KST MBC Music Core (65 minutes) - Saturday 4:10 PM KST SBS Inkigayo (70 minutes) - Sunday 3:50 PM KST
These are the major ones. They are weekly, not similar to concerts at all. After a group releases a song it will usually promote on most of these shows for a month or two or three.
Ohhh, okay tha'ts what they were. Music shows... interesting.... Damn that's so often then.. How do they have time to tour and shit, if they're doing this 4days a week? :O
That's the life of an idol haha. They don't really tour that often. Concerts for a specific band will happen at most like 3 times a year or something, I'm pulling that number out of my ass just to explain to you how they don't happen very often compared to say, American bands. In addition to this, a lot of idols act and stuff, and they have to go to practices, fanmeets, promotions, etc. Apparently they only get a few hours of sleep each night, especially during times like this when they're performing.
Damn, that just make me admire them more. I also find it interesting how multifaceted the idols are. they're artists/actors/promoters/dancers/etc etc. Dat busy work schedule.
Man, if it wasn't for the flute in Day by Day, I don't think I would even bother listening to the song.
yeah, t-ara is having their first korean concert in a month i think lol. how inconsiderate of them not to come to the US though. FU T-ARA.
LOL @ at the comments on t-ara's new perf, and the number of dislikes after watching t-ara star life theater i feel more compassionate towards 6-ara, and i really like eunjung more... like every episode i just like her more and more.
Just finished reading the ten pages I missed all day. Sorry for starting this all and not contributing real time.
Curious thought about the announcemnt, maybe CCM will move a T-ARA member to 5Dolls? They've had little success and after Soomi left, I never really heard anything about them. So if they did ax Hwayoung, they could move her to be with her sister? Crayon Pop and Boyfriend are having success as groups with twins.
Also, did you know Huh Gak had a twin named Huh Gong? He's also pursuing singing as well.
What is AOA (Ace Of Angels). Is that a new group? Their cover looks a lot like the last Chi Chi promotion (with the wings and everything), but most of the girls look good. It's only sad that their title song sucks. The other 2 songs sound good enough though (especially Temptation imo).

Yep B2ST is amazing. I probably listen to Fiction and Fact more often than any other kpop album barring maybe an exception or 2.
I am so happy that I got "Pre-Dani" T-ara things. The Day By Day book is really a piece of art (same goes for the AS Flashback album - sadly not mine). I can finally add T-ara to my poster wall + Show Spoiler +
. With only SNSD, KARA & IU it really lacked a good band. jk...am I?
As for all the T-ara drama going on. It's quite obvious what happend. Lovely 12 year old Dani wanted some fun, got all their phones and tweeted sooo funny things...now CCM are going to kick her out ofc. Right? Right!

KKS genius.
Hehe, you're right. But I still have nothing pre Hwayoung and I am going to fix this. So I guess the same applies to her?

There have and always will be injuries to performers, it is disappointing for everyone involved but everyone recognises its not worth it to risk antagonising minor pains into bigger ones. At least that is what we have come to expect from sane managements.
The best part of all this is that I get more and more people involved. My sister bought one of the t-ara poster pack and two friends got Wonder Girls and AS/4minute. And I shared some of the SNSD,IU,Kara posters with other people. Also Gangnam style spreads the kpop love even more. ^^ I am just happy in general that I have finally something I genuinely like. I still need to print a T-Shirt with my last.fm tag cloud for the Gamescom in cologne. Would be so awesome.
