Wow, I so expected to come here and see people bashing Mugen Climax! I don't even know why, I just did. I'm surprised and thrilled that JPope said everything I'm thinking, so I don't have to. I won't say it's the best pop song ever, because it's not, but ugh I'm just so excited that H!P finally put ...

What, I completely missed this single announcement and thread with my big move into the house! I just heard Sou Janai and I really like it. I generally don't listen to idol songs before the videos come out, but I half-doubted this single was real since I hadn't seen an announcement anywhere on the '...

I agree that she always seemed unhappy, so this is good news. Diagnosis is the first step to hopefully get treatment. I'm hoping more people, especially in Japan, try to get treated for depression. It's a soul-sucking illness.

I didn't know she remarried!
 
Congrats to Kago and her husband, and I hope she has a healthy baby.

Thanks, TicTac! That was really informative and insightful of Masaki. I'm really starting to adore her, little by little. She's become such a good member since her hiding-under-table-at-handshakes days.

Noooooo.......




;-; Ok.



Give me good future groups then, C-ute/H!P!!! One more good group to go with Angerme, and I'll be ok.

[quote="Ap2000"] I didn't know this was going to happen. Yuri and Seohyun released a song called "Secret": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRPgtoEO6OM [/quote]   Yay, I approve! I like what SM is doing, getting the girls in smaller sub-units which gets each girl much more screent...

Tiffany is NOT the brightest bulb by any means, but I don't see a Japanese flag in her snapchat post in Ap's link. All I see is a "TOKYO, Japan" graphic which has the Rising Sun as its decoration inside of it. That's a shit explanation on my part, but she didn't post a flag. It looks to me...

That puts her marriage in a different light for me, sadly. Ah well, as long as she's happy, I guess.

[quote="Anderei"] These girls are younger and fit better into the typical model of standard attractiveness in Korea. CL is focusing on her solo career, Minzy is gone, Bom/Dara aren't super popular outside of 2ne1 and Bom is still being affected by her scandal. So they're starting anew. YGE...

[quote="Ap2000"] YG Ent. debuted their newest group Black Pink with Boombayah and it's pretty much 2NE1.5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwmSjveL3Lc [/quote]   Eh, the song isn't terrible, but I think I've become disillusioned with this fake badass image in Kpop. Why imitate 2NE1 with a ...

[quote="Shoujo Q"] Tv Show LinLin was on. Check out that house yo! <a class="bbc_url" href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4ijt2s_20160627-%E4%BA%BA%E7%94%9F%E3%81%8C%E5%A4%89%E3%82%8F%E3%82%8B%EF%BC%91%E5%88%86%E9%96%93%E3%81%AE%E6%B7%B1%E3%82%A4%E3%82%A4%E8%A9%B1-%E3%83...

I keep getting assaulted with some stupid iPhone ad every time I click that link, argh!

Huh. Well, hey, if she's still with him after two years with a kid, they must be doing something right. I think Hamasaki's first marriage was after 4 months and they didn't last a year WITHOUT a kid. Either way, I'm happy she's happy, and I wish her well in both marriage and motherhood. She's still ...

<blockquote class="ipsBlockquote" data-author="DonJuan" data-cid="198413" data-time="1466798676"> Ayumi kind of said something to Ogata about her weight, but not much. I think it was in a joint interview when Ogata mentioned that she doesn't eat after 6pm (or ...

Yeah, I hope she puts on some weight if she plans to stay in the group. :/ It's like no one has the balls to say something to the poor girl!

Masaki or Ayumi, just 'cause.


I've got a feeling.

Dang, that's a downer but at least Hyuna keeps going, I guess...

Keep in mind that all of this is speculation at this point because Anqi just regained the ability to speak (probably with much difficulty and pain), so no one really knows what happened. If the friend/fan has been interviewed, I can't find a single thing about it. This article identifies the person ...

It certainly seems weird that she was dining privately with a supposed "fan" rather than a friend, but the attacker is said to be the president of Anqi's fanclub. So I guess that makes her more a fan than a friend in this particular instance. And yeah, I didn't link any of the pictures of ...

This appears to have happened a few months back, but I didn't see it mentioned anywhere in this thread:   Tang Anqi, an SNH48 member, was deliberately set on fire by an angry fan a few months back and is still in critical condition three surgeries later. 80% of her body was reported to be covered in...

Yeesh, that poor girl... :/ I feel like this is the logical conclusion to fan delusions of closeness with celebrities, especially idols who are marketed as more approachable girl-next-door types. I hope the crazy fan gets jail time at the very least, and I hope the poor girl makes a full recovery. W...

My only interest in VR is to play horror games one day, like Doom, Silent Hill, and maybe the simple fun of Alien Isolation eventually.


I definitely won't bother until the hype is way over though, for both the lowered price and my general lack of interest otherwise.

I actually thought the rap was good. It was clearly about Jessica's situation post-SNSD, and was uplifting, so I'll root for that any day. There are too many songs with featured rappers who talk about money and hoes during their part, when the rest of the song is about something completely different...

On my computer, there's arrows in the upper left corner of the video that allow you to move the camera around.

[quote="Anderei"]   Rina's funny but I don't like her voice. If all of her and Rikako's lines would go to other people, all the songs would be perfect.   [/quote]   Whaaat, Rikako is an angel and can sing her one-liners any time for me. She only seems to get one solo line a song, so maybe ...

I admit my asthma is mild enough that I don't do anything to treat it, so I may be way off base here, but couldn't she just get an inhaler?

I got all the same except the Suzuki keychain, and I really think the guy is so nice for doing this. :cryalot:   Thea too, or else I wouldn't have been able to do it. I've only unpacked it and looked at it (since I'm in the middle of moving), but I plan to try to listen to the CDs and experience an ...
