I'll be back is absolutely horrendous, and the dance is hilariously bad also. I mean, really? http://i54.tinypic.com/2mqj5nk.gif THIS... FRIGGIN'... DANCE... And they never stop doing it! It's like 90% of the choreography! Even Kara doesn't have choreography quite that stupid. (And yes I'm aware of ...

Oh, it's JYP, pass. (Pass/call is such a Korean thing to say... <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> I'm turning into a Koreaboo... or whatever the word is.)

Wait, Breathe? What song is that? It's not a cover of the B2ST song, is it? Cause if it is... I wanna hear that!

Since there is this thread and I can't get over how addictive this song is, I might as well post it here:



Super Junior - No Other. Also, OMG Heechul!



Missing Kangin like crazy though.

I think it definitely helps that I got used to the Korean versions of all those songs before hearing the Japanese ones (except Wonder Girls), but I do think they're also just plain better in Korean. Honestly it doesn't sound like Japanese half the time, just a made up language in the Japonic family....

SHINee are really entertaining, very funny on variety shows and such, so I naturally like them. The Lucifer album was really good, I played it a lot, but I guess they don't want to get stuck in that sound too much (they sorta were doing that since Ring Ding Dong iirc). This song isn't really doing i...

Re:ggaeton (lol), I'm totally addicted to the second in the Hwantastic series: Jo Kwon & Whale - Dunk Shot .

Everybody treated Chuck like shit for almost no real reason. But y'know, I played Chuck in Dead Rising 2. And even I felt like he cosmically deserved what he got during the course of the game.

I think the most important thing is to get a good axe and pickaxe. Finding diamond is a pain in the ass, but it's well worth it.

The last time this happened (at least successfully) was Koyote I guess? I've always liked this concept, though. Definitely checking this out. However T-ara is certainly one of my least favorite girl groups (and I never heard the other ones), so I don't know if CCM can do a decent job producing it. T...

Punching a cow gets you meat! Punching a tree gets you wood! Build a meat-tree! I'm playing Dead Rising 2 also. Fun stuff so far, if VERY similar to the first game.

Unless they really blew the marketing on that one (by giving it the same exact name), that's just a compilation album, they're not actually covering the songs. They released that 2 or so years ago in Korea, and the names just show who picked what song. Not to stray from the topic too much, but I can...

That Angel track is pretty cool, usually those drama tracks are just ballads so I was a bit surprised that this was like a midtempo anthem-type song? Cool stuff anyway. The other day I came across this by accident while searching for Heechul stuff: Super Junior - GEE . When I say "Hee", yo...

It turns out my theory about girl pop in the 90s vs. now is right: groups like SES and Baby VOX were scouted off the streets and basically given no training before debut, whereas groups nowadays get upwards of 5 years of training. That's why they're vastly superior now. (Objectively speaking, I was ...

Nah you were right the first time, it's the navel-showing dance apparently. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whatthe.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':puppyeyes:' /> (Although, when I say it's banned, it's more that MBC refused to broadcast it. That qualifies for me.)

Oh, Untouchable is theirs? They're pretty decent too, had a cool single with Narsha, Living in the Heart (warning: lip syncing actress/model type person replaces Narsha).

I made a "Kpop booster pack" full of relatively recent songs I've heard on TV shows and so on, but never quite listened to enough (and also a few songs I loved but didn't listen to for a while). Some of them grew on me quite a bit. 01. Super Junior H - 요리왕 (Cooking? Cooking!) 02. Kara - Mi...

It's Java, so it definitely should work.

You guys might enjoy this! Minecraft disaster. Very funny stuff.

PS. One would be careful to note that Japanese Lit is quite different than any Western lit. "Author insert porn" is the cornerstone of high Japanese modern literature (confessions, or I-novels). I've heard this said in defense(?) of Norwegian Wood before, and it's put me off reading any m...

One of my many objections to Norwegian Wood was definitely that it was incredibly sexist (it is, this is inarguable--whether you mind or not is up to the individual reader). But that was peripheral to the main character just being a giant author insert. It wasn't literature, it wasn't even a novel: ...

I think I paid 20 euros for RoP, but I would say it's worth full price too based on sheer size (and also: awesomeness). Not really a game as such, but I'm playing around in Game Maker 8. I finally gave in and admitted that I won't have the patience to learn to code in the foreseeable future. I'd jus...

I really don't like Murakami. I only read Norwegian Wood to be honest, but that really put me off him as a writer. I don't wanna complain about it too much since people here really like it. Generally when I don't like something that other people like, I feel like I lose, and when I like something ot...

I definitely want to play EO3 as well, but it'll have to wait until after I move and also finish Resonance of Fate. Speaking of which, I'm playing Resonance of Fate.

I've never played this but I've always wanted to because the music is just so good. This is the DS remake or something I guess?
