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.

However, the way it's being portrayed, especially in America, "LOL FAT ASIAN GUY DANCE FUNNY, SILLY KOREANS"

Actually most people seem to think it's japanese based on the comments. But really, why does it matter to you how they perceive it? To most people it's a funny internet video they stumbled upon and are never gonna think about again, like half the shit you see on Reddit. That shit isn't gonna have a permanent impact, and really it doesn't matter what other people think.
It's just /b/ who wanted to have "fun"...
I don't think I've seen this fancam of So Yul posted here:

I am starting to get real sick of people at parties telling me about this awesome korean music video I should totally check out.

This. Especially when I came back from Korea 2-3 weeks after it was released over there, people were like "OMG HAVE YOU SEEN THIS AWEOSME VIDEO?!". If only they knew how much I'd seen it by then..
You guys remember those white dudes parodying kpop with that group Heart2Heart? The lead dude is back as a solo artist. He's got the art of parodying kpop down to a science!
^repost. You are a week or so late. It is just me or is that song better than the last few SuJu singles?

How so? Nikki Minaj has had 2 number one albums in the US and Japan and is at the top of the hip hop world right now.

I finally got to play the hipster when my people started having a circle jerk for the song in my Facebook feed.

nikki minaj sucks, selling albums =/= good.
also, i never want to see chad future on this board ever again. EVER.
Selling albums = extremely popular. By association they are saying that 2ne1 is in the same class. Don't see how that could be viewed as harsh. With that reasoning, you could say it was harsh for Rose as well.
