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.

A PINK - CeCi Magazine Interview
Ceci: Yookyung, Naeun, Namjoo and Hayoung, have you ever felt jealous of your adult unnies?
EJ: I don’t think the girls will be looking forward to being 20 years old after seeing us. We don’t live a “free” campus life like most young adults do, however we do have a fantasy life though. Not too long ago, Naeun asked me, “Unnie, how does your neck feel when you drink beer?” and I was surprised, even worse, Namjoo asked us (the unnies) to drink beer in front of them.
NJ: I was curious that’s why. And also because I was afraid that the unnies won’t drink because of us.
EJ: I will take a confirmation shot of us drinking beer and will post it on the messenger board. You don’t think we’ll do it for you guys? (Laughs)
BM: We’re really curious about clubs as well. To be honest, we didn’t even go yet, because our title being “fairy-dols”.
NJ: Instead the unnies will make a club in our practice room, and that’s really funny.
EJ: I’m in charge of turning on and off the switch, but lately we’ve been lacking in business incase the switch would get on fire.
YK: We’re really jealous when the unnies watch movies. Ceci: Haha, is there a recent movie that only unnies can watch?
EJ: It’s the movie “Taken 2”. This is a behind story but Namjoo really wanted to go see it, and she got in with adult accompaniment our manager oppa. She’s not allowed to do that, but as proof I will confess.
NJ: I’m sorry, though I was so nervous in the theatre. I couldn’t even drink a beverage and held in to go to the washroom. In a few months we’re in free irrigation!
EJ: When I was in middle school, I wore my mom’s formal wedding outfit and got caught in the theatres. I even wore pointy high heels and looked like a real adult. I was so mad to why I got caught. Now I realize how funny I looked.
HY: I feel bad that I can’t go to kareoke at nights after practicing because I’m still a teenager. Ceci: You sing all day, but you go to kareoke again?
CR: Of course, it’s the same singing, but it’s completely different. We go to kareoke to relieve our stress. We choose songs from SISTAR and 4Minute seniors, and dance sexy like them.
NJ: In the end we end with an A Pink song in gag style. We speed up the tempo and rap the song. Ceci: Has each of you heard reasons why you were able to join A Pink?
CR: I heard that Bomi joined because of her personal Taekwondo 3rd degree ‘back round kick’. Shinsadong Tiger composer saw that and said okay right away.
NJ: After I auditioned I heard someone say, “She’s a middle school student?” I didn’t know if they meant that because of my face or my skills. (ALL: It could be both)
HY: I heard that too. (ALL: You have nothing to worry about, you’re like that)
EJ: Hayoung is slowly getting younger. She’s A Pink’s “Benjamin Button”.
NE: I don’t really know. I followed my cousin to an audition and someone gave me an application. I thought ‘How could I say no’ and ended up applying.
BM: Naeun’s success in her audition is because she is a goddess. Ceci: Who is the member that transformed the most?
BM: Eunji! The fact that Eunji wears make up and wear kill heels are so interesting now.
CR: Wearing kill heels, I hope that she stops walking out-toed. In her musical “Legally Blonde” her princess like character can’t walk out-toed, I’m worried.
EJ: On November 17th is the first performance, and I’m polishing my princess character and walking. I got in so much trouble.
Ceci: We’re sad that A Pink News Season 3 has ended.
CR: Since it was news just for A Pink, the emotional impact was big. Because of the program we were able to show various of different images, but we ended well smiling. We promised all the staff that we would meet again in a different broadcast.
Ceci: It was to the point when we were wondering if a girl group could act like that.
EJ: Every time we see the broadcast we would regret why we acted like that. Our dark circles were huge too. Because of the program, I realized the importance of make up.
NJ: We forgot that it was a program that everyone was watching. We ate midnight snacks, danced the crab-leg dance, when other idols said “We had fun watching the broadcast,” we were so embarrassed.
CR: Hearing that the whole school saw the personality that I only showed in class was so embarrassing. But the shooting was always fun.
BM: If we do season 4, I want to end like Hayoung who always show gag but always become edited out, and acts funny all the time but always appearing like goddesses -Yookyung and Naeun’s charms.
Ceci: Is there a way of communication in just A Pink?
CR: When we all saw each other, everyone was in a sensitive puberty stage. On top of that, as a leader, I was an introvert person so I wasn’t able to say my sad point of view or share my deep thoughts. So if there was any situation we would open a punishment session in the living room.
EJ: Now days, we can tell by looking at each other’s expression. Before we would stay quiet and move on in case we hurt other’s feelings but now we say confidently that we’re mad. Then we would say sorry and move on while laughing. You saw our personalities today, it’s good. That’s why it’s nice.
Ceci: You’re preparing for your album now. Have you ever thought of making a strong charismatic stage?
CR: We like our A Pink style. When A Pink comes out to the world, like how Eunji was caught in the theaters, it’s going to be awkward.
EJ: At first the fairy and young girl image was really awkward with our personalities, but now we’re sufficient with it. We’re thankful that they made us into fairies. When will we able to wear princess outfits again?
CR: Now we will work hard and not lose our A Pink colours, we will return as a young girl image again.

Listening to beast's fiction and fact album again and it definitely falls in my top 20 all time KPop albums, which is a pretty impressive considering I've been following Korean music closely since 1997
After I finish my last final tomorrow I'll try and compile a list of my top all time kpop albums.
how do I get older things like those two beast albums and old DBSK stuff? most places i know of just have dead links and im limited on torrenting in my dorm
