Ok so can someone tell me why hyorc has some kind of cult following amongst AKP readers? Seem like every time there is a SNSD article on akp there are people calling her underrated and other nonsense.

People are rabid fans of idols, rabid enough they believe their idols should be immune to criticism, so when they see other people talking down hyorc, they start rushing to her defense, and over time they start believing she's underrated.

I really don't think it costs more to promote with 10 girls rather than 3 girls. The increased labor costs of 7 girls is nothing compared to the costs of production.

My guess is that a dance version wasn't planned, and they just used the best dance cut they had from filming the normal mv. Going back and refilming a dance version just for that hiccup probably wasn't feasible.

Not only that, they rebuy the costumes for each performance which is a lot cheaper for 3 girls instead of 7

Raina seems much more natural in Orange Caramel. Her dancing/etc in what I've seen from AS just doesn't work. Her vocals are pushed more in AS though, and she's a great singer.

Raina never really seemed to fit the AS concept. I'm guessing they brought her in because that group badly needed another vocalist.
