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.

It's a pop music show. I take it you've never seen Top of the Pops or any show like that from a country other than Korea. Korean audiences have a fairly strong opinion on lip-syncing so at least a lot of the singing is done live.
They sing with a backing track. There's a difference.
No, having at least a few members are completely lip syncing is not uncommon.
Are you talking about backing vocals in a five-girl group or something? I was mostly talking about the lead which is what people typically focus on. Even the lead vocals are lip-synced on a lot of pop music programs which was my initial point. And I wasn't saying that it never happens in Korea, only that when it does happen it's usually frowned upon.

The funny thing is, you knew PSY as Luna first BUSTEDDDDDD
As I recall, you're the one who asked what her name was and I told you, like forever hundred pages ago.
(I guess no more joking time...)
And as I recall, you had no idea what HyoMin's real name was either. Ok out of three popular search engines, Naver, Nate, and Daum, only Daum tells me Luna's real name. When I do a search using those three engines for HyoMin, each one tells me her real name. Now I mostly use Naver and Nate. So you tell me, if you're a notch above a casual K-Pop fan, whose real name is going to be easier to find?
Now to attempt to defend Mega, lets say 4Minute and 2NE1 are similar in terms of music styles. Even though GaYoon and JiYoon are good, are you going to say that each one of them is better than Park Bom? Yeah they sang good, especially GaYoon with her Navi cover (which I've seen like 10x now, and she is my favorite 4Minute member), but usually record companies are going to let them promote a song that's within a pre-select range of their ability. It's not the most accurate comment, but then again you don't see Jung SeulGi or Park Bom singing a cutesy type song like OJ Caramel's Magic Girl right? No one's saying GaYoon or JiYoon are bad, cuz they're not. But they might not be as good as you think.

I don't get why people like TTL. I hated it.
You think I'm going to trust Google? Dude even SM's official site is garbage -_-. You should see it. Doesn't tell me shit. If you're looking for something Korean, best to use something that's from their own language...
And it's ok hating TTL. I never liked K.Will's voice either
