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. |

I have had no luck looking for one so far. Not sure if it cause its a Japanese Album because most the the Korean Albums seem to come with posters. Hey, nice to hear IU fans still lurk these barren archives. The album comes with a sticker and photo-book. A documentary if you buy the speacial addition album. I have yet to see one yet sold with a poster.
Here is a link to a place you can buy the album, have a great day!

I thought it was alright. In a way it wasn't that great but I enjoyed it on the whole. Ga-in though holy moly.

gah, don't check the thread for a few days and I'm 10 pages behind- 4 of which are all about Psy and GaIn... =0X video absolutely hysterical! song, not so much... dat GaIn...

I thought the song got better with a couple more listens. The video wasn't that bad. I still feel that the opinion on this song would be a lot different for some people if gangnam style had never came out or if it didn't get so popular. I could be wrong but who knows.

I doubt it would have come out if it didn't make it big. It doesn't sound like a song PSY would write, but a song that a bunch of people got together and wrote to try to make another hit.

Yeah i'll admit it does sound like a gangnam style 2.0

I don't like the new song.Gentlemen. . I guess Gangnam style will just remain a one hit wonder.
Plus the dance concept for the main chorus is nothing special compared to Gangnam style.
Abracadabra (Brown eyed Girl)uses the same dance concept in their chorus dance.

One hit wonder? People really didn't know Psy before Gangnam Style huh.

It's not even about the song, most of the people who liked Gangnam style wouldn't have even listened to it twice if it was introduced to them without having become famous. It just got viral and everyone heard it everywhere so it became big.
It's not so much a one-hit wonder (which is ridiculous since Psy has been famous in korea for ages), as a one-hit concept. Doesn't matter if he makes a song 10 times as good as Gangnam style because it's not going to have the same impact.

He's a one-hit wonder in the US.

Was Psy famous international before Gangnam style? Answer is no.
I liked Gangnam style for it's MV and I am pretty sure most people predicted it will be hard for Psy to come out with a new song that can topped GS.

this exactly.... I, for one, knew about psy beforehand- and didn't particularly like gangnam style... I was terribly annoyed by all of my friends who knew I was into kpop who asked me about it- and I says to them, 'you only know about psy and kpop because of fuckin gangnam style... you never said shit before whenever I linked a kpop video, all of a sudden you're interested!' the thought irked me... I had linked a countless number of soshi, secret, or davichi live stages and the response was lackluster.... either way- expectations for Psy from the foreign audience was way too high...

I guess the only thing that shows in the video are different sides from being Gentleman though
It does scream Gangnam Style all over the MV though + tryhard.
So fking tryhard
On IU, I think shes decent(not that stellar) on her weekly drama "you are the best, lee soon shin". I dig Yoo Inna more though
|
I thought Gentelam was awesome! If Gangnam Style was a 10 - Gentleman is an 8.5
|
I think he played it safe but smartly so. There's a very good chance a completely new formula would crash and burn. Now that he has a song that can rack up billion+ views, my guess is he will start bringing songs that are more unique to himself
|
No way this song is going to pull off another 1 billion views on youtube, but I love it nonetheless.

I don't see what the problem with that is. You linked to shit that they didn't care about, the Psy video was funny. Not everyone will like the same kpop artists you do, nothing to get annoyed about.
