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.

That's like asking a technology/gadget blog to not cover apple products. Allkpop is a kpop news site, not a site that covers all news except for SNSD. You're not going to find a site that sones don't read, since they make up such a big part of the kpop audience.

bleh, generic vocal is generic. If they don't have the voice for a decent song in the first place, I prefer they hide under meaningless but catchy tune. A well produced catchy >>> boring forgettable song.

Don't be the grinch, jankenpon . Its almost christmas. Gotta get in that christmas mood. Even if it means you'll forget the song after christmas it doesn't matter because the songs are only suppose to last till then.
If you take a peek at the discussion of the article about the rumours before the truth came out, you'll notice that everyone there is ranting threats and accusation of molestation (they're sones ofc). Also, as well as people there posting like a douchebag, the site allkpop made a whole fuss about this by making an article about a rumour that was as valid as any person's imagination.
And i also took a peek at the discussion of the article about the rumours being nullified ( yes, i can't believe i'd stoop this low). I only read a couple of it but apparently sones are defending accusations of allkpop's supposedly wrongdoings (they obviously don't have any decency whatsoever). I was expecting the article to show what really happened and such but the article went completely off-topic in that regards and it was just some really lengthy article about how allkpop is innocent of said accusations (kinda unprofessional).

You're not even sure if SME really is speaking the truth. And do you think only sones would react if a k-pop star was (allegedly) molested? This goes way beyond fandom, any decent person would be against that. And you say the article is unprofessional for for showing how AKP is innocent or whatever. Well, the original article from Sports Chosun doesn't even say what really happened and it just became an article about how AKP is anti-hallyu or whatever, which is kind of retarded (and suspicious). This makes you think if SM really is speaking the truth or not. Heck, with that kind of writing from Sports Chosun, you don't even know if SME really did release a statement or not. Plus, the korean article was warped in the first place, it accuses AKP of reporting that the incident really did happen. But the original AKP article only said it might have happened and posted videos telling the viewers too see for themselves. Rumors such as these can easily be negated by official statements explaining what really happened. But this did not happen. What happened was an official statement denying the rumors without further explanation but then proceeds to prosecute the source. If you think logically, you would be on AKP's side on this one.
btw, I love IU and her voice, and maybe it's just me but the new title song feels like it's lacking something, not even sure what. Nagging was good, this I don't really like.
When in doubt always go back to the Axiom: SME=EVIL=KESPA='The Man' Also, Please get better Tiffany! Hope the ligt. injury is nothing too serious. + Show Spoiler +
EDIT: Sorry that the uploader didn't want his vids to get embedded. Can't seem to find another upload.
When I listened to this song for the first time I remembered Tartosis giving korean viewers a quick english lesson about the word "baller".
Hook beat reminds me of SHINee - A-Yo which is like one of the best kpop songs imo.
Btw, T-ara album is quite good. Never really liked T-ara before, I think Yayaya is somewhat of a good song? I dunno, I can only listen to it when viewing the mv for some reason. Without the mv I actually don't think it's a good song. ( <- does this make sense )
I like how they don't even hide the fact that the audio is prerecorded...actually really jarring. edit- HuK's stream made me realize that other than Yayaya, T-ara's new album is actually quite good. double edit- Huk playing the instrumental version of yayaya made me happy.
I legitimately love it. Like the song, like the mv/concept, like the fact that it's not "cutesy/aegyo" IU, she looks so much better with long hair, the parrot is dope, and the random instrumentalist that's always creepin' is awesome. Can't wait for lives.

i think iu is younha junior.... lets just hope she doesnt go to japan D:
Yeah, when I first found out about IU, I thought she was pretty similar to Younha in that she was extremely versatile and was being introduced to many styles early on, and obviously because they're both great, young female soloists.
Anyone else in love with 2:20 - 2:38 in that new IU MV? :D
Also, what's 'aigoo'? Is that the Korean version of uguu~? :O

Don't quote me on this, but from what I remember from my Korean friends back in freshman year high school it's supposed to be the Korean equivalent of "oh my gosh."

stop directing whatever anger that you have on sones, you've been targetting them since the video came out. think rationally, any fan would have shit up a storm. Its just sones make up a large percentage, that's why its like sones/and sones trolls shitting up places anywhere you go.
IU doesnt have a nose ridge, its as low as the asian nose will go. she do need a bit of make up on that area, other than that, its all good
(Yes, I'm using my 999th post for this; because this is the most ROFL that K-Pop has given to ProLeague. Sorry BeSt and your dance moves, but we still love you.)
Also, people would really be ticked off at what happened to SNSD there; no reason for Koreans to go apeshit just because it's being reported abroad.

Hm, might be. :D From what I see at 4:43 it's either like an expression of surprise or an expression of pain (i.e. "owh").
