Re: Why are Japanese teens embracing Kpop?
I'm too late to add anything new to this discussion, but I'll say that AKB48 creeps me out despite many attempts to enjoy them, and Sunny is the best. I'm glad other people round here like her (the cool part of the internet, amirite?), she doesn't seem to be too popular in Korea from what I could te...

Hell no, it was a mercy killing after the way they mistreated them with horrible third-rate songs post-BOUNCEBACK. Now that was a travesty.

IU doesn't actually do all that much in this , until she starts singing about 8 minutes in. She sure looks cute though. The hosts are quite funny so you might want to watch w...

Re: Tokyo Girls Style
They took a huge risk in trying to rearrange that song since it was incredibly good as it was, and boy did it ever disappoint. It sounds awful and honestly these girls can't even sing the song, so what's the deal? I can't wrap my head around this at all. Anyway, Himawari to Hoshikuzu is their only g...

I don't know to what extent people watch variety shows here but one of the SISTAR girls (Hyorin) showed up on a new variety show called "Oh! My School". I thought it was pretty good, so if you feel like it, check it out.

But this? Damn! The outfits look horrible (seriously, what's with the plastic-looking ...

The Walking Dead was awesome!

I still found that oc...

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
It's nice to be able to see the dance properly, it seems really good. Taeyeon's especially good in this song, and easily pulls it off live as well. Guess she made a full recovery!

Re: What's a repackage album?
WHAT IS REPACKAGE ALBUM? A miserable pile of songs. Yeah I never quite got this either, although to be fair albums in Korea are about the same price as a single in Japan, so paying that kinda money for 2 or 3 songs isn't that crazy to me. Maybe it's a way to crank the total sales figure of the album...

Hurray for Siwon! Definitely a cool video, and the dance looks pretty good too. I sort of expected more of a story, but that isn't really SM's style, and this doesn't distract as much from the music.

Poor quality full version. Seems like one of the best Perfume songs. If the b-side is anywhere near as good as 575, it'll be my favorite Perfume single.
