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'd say Superstar K is more like the Korean 'American Idol' and MBC's version is the rip-off in trying to enter the market.

MBC Star Audition (위대한 탄생)
So my girlfriend auditioned for the mbc star audition and qualified! Out of a1000 people auditioned, 30 people moved onto the second round of the US auditions. Out of the 30, they selected 6. She was one of those lucky 6 out of everyone in the US to pass and get a free trip to Korea!

Here's the clip of her audition from the episode.

+ Show Spoiler +


Her name is Sharon Shin. She got to sing more songs initially, but they were American songs. And because MBC doesn't have rights to use American songs, she had to sing Korean songs. So Sharon couldn't remember the lyrics because she doesn't normally singing korean songs.

She's in Korea right now. Today, they're doing the next part of the competition. Nearly 160 people were selected from around the world for this show. I hope my fellow TL members can support her! And Thank you guys!


wow, she's pretty good. best of luck to her! she got to meet some f(x) members? :O

They were judged to be harmful because of profanity, even though there is no mention of the F word or the C word which is like the only 2 words that are not allowed in songs without restrictions,as far as the non-korean countries are concerned.

They forgot to mention that 2NE1's abuse of autotune is making a bad influence.

What a fucking joke!!!!
These old people in high places need to be ridden of, their mindset is in the 20th century. This kind of shit wouldn't happen in a country like the U.S, where corruption is kept to a minimum.

oh yeah and allkpop's live discussion has implemented some rules and consequences regarding posting comment which means that the sones will have to play nice, assuming that allkpop will actually moderate the discussion (Hell, its about time).

And on the same day, this just had to happen:
http://www.allkpop.com/2010/12/sbs-inkigayo-yields-to-yg-entertainment-but-at-what-cost


For those of you who don't know, sbs' inkigayo previously warned that artists who attended the MAMA (Mnet Annual Music Awards, iirc) were banned indefinitely from appearing in inkigayo. But they turned their back on their words. Stupid? Yes. Unexpected? No, not if you have decent brain that is.

Looking at the Comments, none of the Sones can believe that Kara can actually be more popular than SNSD. They keep justifying why SNSD is 2nd by saying Kara debuted earlier and Kara released 2 Single + 2 DVD while SNSD released 2 Single + 1 DVD.

Since they changed their comments system, I haven't seen any comments because I have NoScript installed on my Firefox. While the main site is enabled for scripts, whatever the comments are hosted on isn't enabled, so I can see the stories, but no comments.
The system. It works.
HOLY CHECK!

rofl, now that is hilarious.

I understand them quasi-censuring e.g. 2NE1 for lyrics like "i don't give a fuck," but lol at blocking a song for using a japanese name for noodles over the korean one.

Haha, no way- is that like American Idol for Korea? She's a great singer!

No, that would be Superstar K (Seo In Gook won the 1st one). This is more of a generic talent search. I'm pretty sure now they [MBC Star] even have a youtube version. JYP also goes around the world doing talent searches pretty much yearly.

OH FUCK YEAH!!
The taste of e-tears from sones have never been sweeter. I think its fair to say that Japanese obviously knows kpop better than the koreans.
Kara: 15.4
PG(Plastic Generation): 10.3
therefore Kara > PG


Some comments i saw in the discussion:

"Fuk no snsd is best of world kara is shit" by Sicalover, obviously a sone (he got banned)

"koreans h8 japs, now i know y ..." by yurifany (racist, banned before i could read his whole post)

"This just goes to show how japanese people no nothing about talent and only care about stupid porn. They just chose Kara over SNSD because Kara just put on really short skirts and shit songs but japanese people are perverts because they make heaps of porn so they like that. SNSD songs are really professional songs that require a really good voice with high pitch range and they dress very nicely without showing too much skin." by SMSNSD (wtf have you been smoking?)

This is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Basically everyone says 우동.

wtf?

Either these people are completely out of touch with society or they are trying to enforce some sort of nationalistic bullshit over music; I wouldn't be surprised with the latter.

Between sones and anti-fans, I find the Anti's MUCH more annoying. IMO, let fans love their shit whatever it be. Why rain on their parade?
SNSD themselves are hardly bothered 'cos Gee is No.1 in Japan and Genie is No.2. Sones will be sones. But no need to be anti just bcos of that.

ok let me rephrase. can anyone suggest some obscure korean music? like a korean progressive metal band, or an idm group, or something that i would have never found on my own without someone else? i just want to expand my korean music horizons in different directions.
