Who would have predicted after singing one Morning Musume song they themselves would become the real Korean Morning Musume?

It's official Kahi is graduating. It kinda is time for her though. Time to either teach dance or do some more solo work.

Her last solo effort didn't do very well, so I wish her luck with that.

She should try again and just come back with a different type of song. She is known for her dancing but she doesn't have to include it so much in her song as a main piece. She should just choreograph the back up dancing to be awesome and complement her song.

Long time no update.



Orange Caramel released their first album!!



The song they are promoting is Lipstick. It's my new favorite JAM and the MV is crack.



You should watch it!



Here they are on Music Bank performing Milk Shake and Lipstick. I love the beats in Lipstick more, the little dance they do is probably my favorite part.



I'm glad they've gone back to the cutesy stuff. Can't get enough cute in my life. xD

Lipstick is hilarious and catchy. Ping pong battling for love should really be a thing.



Goodness gracious, though, are these lyrics ever rapey.

The constant misuse of your/you're in the subs makes me cringe so much. It's cool that they upload it with subs right away, though.

However, to me the song doesn't seem interesting at all.

I think they are doing a <a href="http://www.allkpop.com/article/2013/06/ ... love">pole dancing</a> concept for their new song.  This should be interesting.  People were mad when Sistar was maybe doing something with poles.

That new allkpop design is such garbage. :sick:
I've always wondered why After School was going into such a sex direction. It seems I was the only one that thought of Bang as not being just sex.

Are they trying to be like T-ara now or something? I always felt like After School was a bit more wholesome.

Dying at the photoshop, though. I doubt those two girls up top can actually hold themselves up there. That stuff is hard as hell.

Considering how long they were probably in training to pole dance, I'll say with 95% certainty that it's them and not photoshop. I mean you only need one picture of them. It's not like it's a video.

The song is kind of awful. And also sounds like something from the 90s.

I like this. It didn't go where I thought it would go -- it never explodes like I was expecting/hoping -- but it's really good. I expect it will grow on me once I get over the initial letdown.

After School must be moving toward some electro-funk style. Their last song "Heaven" was quite good too, but despite some minor quibbles, the concept for "Shh" is better prepared and executed.

Although an elaborate ad for Baskin-Robbins, Orange Caramel released summer song "Abing Abing". They can't go wrong with food concepts.

Jungah is leaving. Her contract expired and she decided not to renew. She'd been vocal about wanting a comeback so I think she's leaving for reasons beyond being tired of being in the group. AS hasn't released anything in Korea since early 2014. Allegedly, Pledis can't afford it and I'm guessing they're pooling the majority of resources they still have into Seventeen.

I love AS but at this point I'll be surprised if they ever have a comeback. I knew when I saw someone had posted here that it was either a disbandment or graduation.
