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.

Just realized that in GNAAL they neither say nor spell SISTAR (and barely any english either). I think this is 100% why they are getting so many negative reviews. Stick with what works girls.

As a friend pointed out to me earlier(I might have skipped the performance otherwise), the performance changes into a rock/metal song which just so happens to be Rising Force by Yngwie Malmsteen. To say I was surprised is a bit of an understatement.

I'm still enjoying the Sistar performances, even if the MV ain't that great. That remix of it was pretty good.

Also, Super Junior M's Breakdown is really good, just still weird they're promoting in korea.

Cool. Thanks for the advice! Now back to GEE GEE GEE or I guess I could check out their new IGAB song...ehh GEE GEE GEE it is

But in all seriousness, are there any other singers in groups or groups who put out songs with good vocals? I have some stuff from Taeyeon, IU, Ailee, and Kwill? Are there any other kpop idols who are also actually really good singers too? Or any songs with just sick instrumentals or just really catchy, I also like that stuff too. I guess i'll give some examples. 2AM "I wonder if you hurt like me", IU "Good Day", "Haru Haru" Big Bang, "Alone" Sistar (actually I can't decide whether some of the recent songs I've heard of Sistar I just really like their vocals or it's just really catchy) , and "Only One" Boa etc.

I don't really have a way to discover new or older kpop songs that I don't know about besides listening to Seoul FM radio, and writing down songs that really catch my ear.

Noel is a 4 man ballad group, so solid vocals but mostly sad songs XD

aaaaand below the cut will be a lot more stuff from about 2008-2013?

+ Show Spoiler +

Baek Ji Young is queen of ballads... some upbeat from her as well but I prefer her slow songs (Like Being Hit By A Bullet, That Woman, Hate, Don't Forget Me).
Seo In Young has a lot of great ballads. She also has upbeat songs but I find them a bit try hard (Written As Love Sung As Pain, Wash, ANYMORE).
8Eight is made of 2 guys and 1 girl, 1 of the guys raps haha (I Don't Have a Heart, Goodbye My Love, Covering Those Lips).
Taeyang in Big Bang has released some stuff. Well, they ALL have solo songs. (Seungri - What Can I Do, is catchy)
Brown Eyed Girls have a lot of great solo (Narsha, Gain, and finally Jea) and group songs (...Cleansing Cream is a ballad, Abracadabra is very catchy, oldie but goodie? L.O.V.E).
Davichi as well (Don't Say Goodbye, 8282, Time Please Stop).
Also, Junsu (from JYJ) - Love is like a Snowflake !!!!!!!!!!
Some other ballads are Taeyeon - Miss you like crazy (not sure if you have this), SNSD - Star Star Star, Epik High - 1 Minute 1 Second (OMG EPIK HIGH), Park Bom - You & I

Random catchy (and hopefully not revolting) songs...
Psy - Passionate Goodbye, GDragon - Hello, Park Myung Soo & Gdragon - I Cheated, SNSD - Trick, SNSD - Bad Girl (note: this is in Japanese....but their Japanese releases are pretty good! XDDD), Sistar - Loving U, Sistar - So Cool, Beast - Fiction, After School - Flashback, Sung Shi Kyung - I'm Okay, SHINee - Sherlock, GD & TOP - High High, Kara - Lupin, Kara - Pandora, 2PM - Hands Up, Hyuna - Change, IU - End of Day, Block B - NanRiNa, T-ara & Supernova - TTL, Park Myung Soo & Jessica - Cold Noodles/Naengmyun, 2NE1 - I'm The Best, SNSD - Genie, Son Dam Bi - Crazy, Hyori - U Go Girl, Miss A - Bad Girl Good Girl, Baek Ji Young - My Ear's Candy, 2PM - I'll Be Back, SHINee - Replay, Kim Tae Woo - Love Rain, CN Blue - Intuition.

...Well that spiraled out of control in no time LOL! These hopefully help you branch out into kpop.... be careful with songs from 2008 and 2009. There were many songs released with strange engrish (although CN Blue - Intuition is kind of weird but is from mid 2011 hehe), such as T-ara - YaYaYa. Catchy instrumental, but what are they saying...? I have no idea, which is disappointing.

In regards to Sistar, there is Hyorin (did a lot of covers on Immortal Song 2) and Soyou who can sing well...
and SNSD has Taeyeon, Seohyun, Jessica, Tiffany, and Sunny....
at least that's how I justify why I listen to their songs a lot :D

You're actually able to sing along? I wish I could do that. I tried singing along to Good Day last month during break, but I just had a difficult time with pace, pronunciation, and clarity. It sounded more like mumbling half the time haha. I just stick to the very simple lines that I like.

I find that for every new release some people don't like it, and somehow there's always one dude who's like "I don't understand all the hate". I don't know if they're expecting a 100% consensus or something.

Not sure what you mean by a noun, punctuation mark, and emoticon, but I'm definitely agreed with Dyst. Always one (or several) people who are shocked and appalled by the lack of absolute positive response.
