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.

As a ballad lover it really sounds good!

SM usually tries to do something unexpected and against the grain. This really sets them apart from the other rookie girl groups by highlighting their strong vocals in a very ballsy way. RV doesn't really seem like a group focused on winning big at this exact moment, but rather a group that will try to surpass SM's other girl groups in terms of their musical legacy a decade down the line.

Eh.. I'm pretty sure SM's #1 interest is to sell digital downloads and albums to rake in $$$
Pretty sure no one will even remember this song in 5 years

Would have rather had a Catch Me dance version, it's the song they should have promoted imo.

It's not as much about remembering this song in five years than it is about marketing their capabilities and building favour with a wider demographic in order to attain longevity. Of course SM wants to get filthy rich, but it's more about how and over which timeframe.

While I know nothing about Korean sales demographics, I think most would assume that promoting a ballad wouldn't net the highest short term gains for SM as opposed to doing a catchy song.

So RV's songs went from being an f(x) clearance sale to being the f(x) factory outlet? At this point SM might as well just have retired Amber and friends.

Problem is that half the red Velvet members can't sing for shit(and Korea likes power ballads), thats why for example SNSD made TTS because more then half the SNSD members can't sing for shit either(and even they promoted a non-ballad song), better to see Yoona/Yuri dance to sell stuff. Seems like a bad move overall as catchy songs with a good choreo will sell better but I guess it saves them a lot of time practicing a new dance?

Only groups who release promoted ballads are......Davichi because they are only two members and they can actually sing(plus its kind of their thing since they don't dance, atleast not anymore, they rely more on vocals then any other group since they don't dance/do variety and shit).

I hate it when people sing ballads and its obviously not live and they are terrible at singing for promotion too (looking at u T-ara). Something cringe about it.

Red Velvet - The Velvet should probably get "the boringest album evar" award.

Since the news broke that G.NA was a prostitute more and more names seem to be revealed. Here's a 'leaked' list I found on NB. Names and Price for a night:
http://a.disquscdn.com/uploads/mediaembed/images/3365/5668/original.jpg

And here's the post: http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.se/2016/03/industry-on-high-alert-as-rumors-begin.html

2 singers on that list but according to comments there should be some high profile girl group member allegedly being sponsored.

Starting age seems to be 30-ish. I think they're mature enough to know what they are doing though, so I don't think it's bad. Against the law in Korea but in western society it's nothing.

I highly doubt Lee Da Hee would be part of this and lol Shin ji really?

Also is that from the 2013 scandal or the recent one with the Sugar member?

>master criminal who has escaped two previous crackdowns is Shinsadong
That's probably the most back assward things I've ever read. Like a guy that goes around calling himself by his old gamer tag is going to have the wherewithal to run an entire prostitution ring and skirt the law. He couldn't even properly manage his own project group or even keep his homepage up and running.
But if it was him, that does implicate Crayon Pap being in his flesh retinue.

Also, 12,000 USD for Shin Ji? Shit, I'd pay a quarter of that just to see how many noraebang machines I could get her to break and get unbeatable scores on those karaoke apps.
