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.

Also, say what you want about SNSD, but you have to be impressed by what they've accomplished and how they've done it.

Living in an asian community, i grew up with kpop being in existence. Took starcraft to get me into it

I never saw them for their sexiness though. Sure they're hot but it feels wierd to me to place them into my life, Via fantasy or whatever. I dont see them like the models or whatever you look at cause they get you hot and bothered. Literally idols for me haha.

They do motivate me though. Some of them work so fucking hard

Yeah what they've done is pretty unremarkable. They just continued down the path of what prior groups had already done.

If I was born on the same exact day as an idol does that mean that I am going to marry them?


Lizzy was born 2 days before me, goddammit. ('92 line represent)

1 day between me and bomi, 93 line too. Maybe even less cause I was born at 2am. No way to tell though. Within a week of apink eunji too.

@juliette same for me, lots of Koreans but didn't care until much later. Not cause of Starcraft though.

I feel like what they've accomplished is just a bonus of what I love about them. I think this guy on SSF perfectly summed it up in one sentence.

“That is to say, we can look at their achievements and while we love their wins, their songs, their dances, what we keep, what we treasure isn’t what they do, but who they are.” — Auratus

Also, Oniontaker is gone and I don't share my birthday with any idols. I'm a year and a day behind Changmin though.

Edit: Crayon Pop's Saturday Night was on BigBRadio just now! Yesterday I asked them to add it to their list of songs and I constantly hear it now and then~

Same because the way I see it they've done it by being part of the largest label in the country and by mostly riding the popularity of one extremely popular song.

I don't think the song's popularity is really all that important. They had two of them that did extremely well early on, but it doesn't really matter.

SM controls so much of the industry that they can pretty much force anything they've contracted to be popular just because of how much they can push their weight around to put them at the forefront of people's minds.

Moreover, everything else they did is just par for the course. Music shows were already established, appearing on variety shows and what not was already established, promoting in Japan was already established, even "idol group" was already established. Sure they become popular, but that's not doing something unique.

JYP made a bad move and pushed the Wonder Girls to the States while SNSD stole the show back home.

Yeah. It seems like he might be giving up on that finally, but you never know with JYP. Becoming big in the US is just not gonna happen.

I never really liked wonder girls to begin with. I think the failures was partially moving to the state, but they just weren't that good to begin with.

I didn't like them either when I got into KPop, but they grew on me a lot in recent promotion cycles.

Two Different Tears was fucking awful, though.

Did anyone in Korea go to the JYP concert last night?

Because if you did, I'm going to permanently ban you from the forum for not going to the last OSL final.

Well they attracted a ton of attention from their debut... its sad that JYP didn't seize the chance to compete at a decent level against SNSD in Korea.
I honestly think Kpop will never really penetrate the mainstream American market... Look at BoA's sad failure there :/
