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.

Somewhere over the Rainbow...


I can't help but wonder if their situation would be the same under another company. I mean they've never been the most popular group, in fact borderline if they're even a top one, but they've never been disliked either. The potential has always been, and still is there. I don't think we've reached the end just yet, but only time will tell.

I dunno; isn't f(x) in sorta same position with SM Ent., right? Obviously not to same extreme. Maybe if they were with a smaller company, that has more banked on their success. They would do better.

Of all the "big" 2009 female rookies, Rainbow's the only one who doesn't have any music show win. I really thought they're gonna win during their Sweet Dream promotion, so I was really sad when their goodbye stages came right after their comeback stage ㅠ.ㅠ. It's my alltime favorite Rainbow song. They're kinda getting bigger at that time after their To Me promotions, but now they're kinda irrelevant because of too much time in Japan.

I totally get what Woori is saying. Man watching Music Bank last night...there seriously way too many new idol groups out there. 90% of these people are not going to make it past their first promotion. Having all these unbelievably bad nugus clogging everything up just cheapens these music shows and then good groups like Rainbow get pushed to the side. So dumb. Hate to bring up the whole 'ruining esports' type of thing, but seriously, constant horrible new groups ruining kpop yo.

i never cared/been interested in Rainbow but you guys talking all the time about them made me think that they are promoting in Japan lol, didnt know the situation was that bad for them no album or even mini album in over a year is really a lot for kpop groups, but well even jewelery managed to come back after 20 months but they are also a much bigger name with a longer history.

Which leads me to this question. How do promotion cycles work in Japan, as opposed to Korea? do they have similar music show infrastructure?

Indeed. Even if you think it sounds that bad, you can always mute it and it'll still be better than anything else you're going to see that day.

I like A btw.

Got into A because I was watching a GSL stream (didn't know they had (live)free stream then) :p Anyways, that was good I guess, the famous outdoor fountain performance.

Whatever, didn't get a response at all last time on Ailee - Fate let's try again

It's always sad when groups just kinda disappears but I think we just have to be glad that at least new good ones appear and not just trash takes their place.
For me however Rainbow was just that A belly dance, I don't think I can name a single song of theirs ><

There are plenty of great rookies, many displaying significantly more talent than established acts with massive fanbases propping up their mediocrity. I'm not talking about Rainbow either.

Girl groups will have the most difficult time. Many of them except for SNSD have very small fanbases

You can't say f(x) is a failure by any means. They've won music shows, they have a lot of popularity, etc etc.

Also it's never good to bet on a smaller company over a bigger one. So much of the popularity factor is just having the clout to do shit- look at Crayon Pop, startup company so they're unable to get on any music show, vs the debuts of big label groups like Apink, who had their own TV show before they even debuted. Bigger is always better, and success of a group in a smaller company is an anomaly.

I think Sojin wins in therms of vocals. But of course, Tiffany is doing it Live with dancers and Sexy gimics so that'S a big plus. What do you think ?

I never know how to judge these things. Is it just which one we like better?
