Wtf is going on?? are they Hello Venus or Wassup?
Do you guys remember Wassup, I do
 
The whole teaser is bad and the management is a disaster
I have stated that I don't like the overly cute style but if the cute groups follows this path, there won't be cute girls anymore...
Until Koreans start to miss and appreciate cute girls and the agencies brings that concept back AND I WON'T STOP SEEING CUTE AND CUTE AND CUTE GIRLS AGAIN

I do remember Wassup because they just had a really awful comeback.


Girl groups like the original HV are back on the rise which makes the huge image change surprising. Lovelyz and Laboum just debuted and are managed by well known and respected companies and Apink are probably the most popular girl group in Korea right now. My friend says people LOVE them.


HV are at a disadvantage because even though Pledis isn't great management, the other company who is now solely in charge have never worked with idols before. They were solely an acting company before they did the deal with Pledis. That and they lost their most popular member with the split.

Seeing how well the plastic sleeping pill A pink does, I doubt that.
 
@Anderei; What's your source that the "most popular member" left?

Well, she didn't 'leave'. But YooAra was the most popular member and their main vocalist, but she was signed with Pledis. Both of the girls that aren't in the group anymore were with Pledis, who are no longer involved with the group in any way. Hello Venus was a joint project by two companies and they both put in trainees.
 
It's not saying much since they were never a relevant or popular group to begin with. But they lost their top girl, are being managed by a company with no experience, who has put them on the path of an overtly sexy concept, which rarely goes well in Korea. A lot of people think the stuff like the Wiggle video is good since it's getting a lot of views, but it's probably not going to win them any points with most people. All publicity is not good publicity for kpop idols.

Yeah, but it never seemed to me that Yoo Ara was the most popular member.

Guys, I seriously cannot get enough of Wiggle Wiggle. I went and talked shit about the teaser, but it is my hardest jam right now. Either I'm a shit human being, or this is seriously fire.

I only just now saw that this was going to happen, but they release a new song called Soldier Dance. Or Soldier and this is the "dance MV":

Yeah that's weird and I don't like it. I feel nothing for this group and it makes me sad because they used to be my second favorite girl group.

South Korea is hosting the Military World Games this year, and this is more of a promo/commercial than a new Hello Venus song. As odd as it is, it still has a higher production value than "Wiggle Wiggle"!
 
In other news, they did start a new season of their Hello Venus TV (HVTV) web show last week. It's subtitled in English and released in 60 fps.

This is an acceptable follow up to Wiggle Wiggle, which is hard to beat.
 
But seriously, Wiggle Wiggle is the best thing and they can never top it. This is a fun track though.

I don't like it. It's like a really bad T-Ara track and their outfits are awful. The choreo also needs to be a lot harder to match the beat.
