Kaime's Kpop Harem

I think the only thing that worries me, when it comes to SHINee's comeback is that they're planning a Japanese comeback in early March, which is right after their Korean comeback. So they may not have enough time when it comes to doing promotions. I'm also worried about them being overworked but I guess we'll see. I mean, I could just be being a worrywart.

Sorry for the double post!

No, that sounds plausible. I feel like SM hasn't been giving their artists much attention since EXO debuted. I don't remember seeing much promotion for SNSD last month either, although considering their fanbase they didn't really need it. I hope everything goes smoothly for SHINee. And that there is no dubstep because I will flip.

Honestly, speaking as someone who's never really been a fan of SM's groups (though it's literally impossible to miss news about them) it sort of feels like SM's hit the point of not giving a fuck with Girls' Generation, Super Junior, and SHINee. Their last few comebacks have been... Lackluster, especially for such popular groups. It's like SM's expecting they can just coast on the popularity they already have.

Yeah, I completely agree with you. I just really want SHINee to do well but with SM behind the reigns...

This so much!

I'm more of a YG girl myself. SHINee is the only SM group that I really follow besides TVXQ. I think I'm more terrified than excited for their comeback. I can almost see the boxed rooms now, in all their boxy glory. The dubstep in the background of a song that was supposed to be a ballad, ah yes just wonderful. I'd love for them to leave the company like JYJ did, but then I worry SM will try to cockblock them.

An SM song without boxiness?? Blasphemy.

In all honesty, SM has recently gotten a bad reputation for the recent accounts invovling JYJ, Hangeng among other previous rumors.
The community of SK 's youth is more sympathetic to JYJ than a big company, you know. (And some rumors are just overblown!)
I'm hoping that SM will realize that such controlling behavior will only hurt them more than it does help them and will lighten up a bit.

To be fair to SM, they are getting a little better about the boxes. At least they're more interesting boxes. Sherlock and I Got A Boy had parts outside boxes!

Still completely desolate landscapes that were obviously sets, but not boxes!

B.A.P released the MV for One Shot!


I typed up a huge reaction thing to this, but my browser ate it. So all I have to say now is that Youngjae is the best, love the songs(s) ..I think there was more than one, even though One Shot is the title track of the MV. Zelo was born to be blond and he should embrace it. The choreography is amazing! Just what I expect from B.A.P. I'm loving the more equal line distribution as well. Youngjae's bridge though....*melts*

Concluding thoughts: I love Youngjae, a bit too much. What am I saying? I just love B.A.P ♥

There were three songs in the MV, yes.

That is literally all you're getting out of me that is coherent right now.

Thanks for the clarification! I thought I was hearing things or something since I watched it without reading any background information prior.
I'm still just so overwhelmed by everything, it all just hit me at once. Even when I was typing up that comment yesterday, my legs felt like jelly. I barely got a chance to really enjoy the song since I was so focused on the cinematography and Youngjae.

This is what you do to me, B.A.P

NU'EST's new MV for 'Hello' is out! Well, it's been out for 9 hours now but I fell asleep while waiting.

I'm just going to drop this here for any Super Junior fans♪
Or anyone who is curious about K-Pop asses (2:10)....



/disappears into the night

Teen Top released the MV for I Wanna Love! This time, I'm 15 hours late in posting this because I thought the MV was coming out at the end of February, but that's when the album comes out. Sorry for the mix up!

The video was shot in Hong Kong. The MV follows Teen Top's signature colourful style but with darker twist, since the song is about letting go of a past love. Some parts made me laugh, but it was overall a great video and the song is really catchy. I Wanna Love is going to be on their first full-length album, No.1, which comes out at the end of February.

Edit: I just have to add that I'm so glad Ricky got substantial parts in this song. Though, it still seems like Niel is carrying the song, slowly but surely, I think Teen Top is getting better at line distribution. Changjo also got some parts too, which I was very happy about.

Editx2: I guess Teen Top pulled a B.A.P on us, because this song isn't the title song of their album. It's just a prerelease. *sigh*

Man, I have one shot stuck in my head now.
Hikikomori you should be proud of yourself. That's a really nice song, decent acting, and I might just look into this band.

As long as someone finds a group they can enjoy from all of this, then it's no problem! If you have the time, you can watch their MTV Diary episodes (they have English subtitles). It's from their debut days, and it's what got me to become a fan.

But I'm really happy you liked One Shot!

Yeah, B.A.P. might be one of the only newer groups that I'm actually actively listening to and putting their songs into my mp3. I'll go look at MTV Diary, as well as any other shows.

Aww, that's good to hear. I hope you enjoy MTV Diary and any other variety shows/interviews of theirs you watch, Yelim. ♥

Just thought I'd post B.A.P and NU'EST's comeback stages.

B.A.P performed Rain Sound and One Shot for their comeback stage yesterday. Due to Himchan breaking two of his fingers, he couldn't join his fellow members for the performance. Still, the show had to go on, and the other members definitely rose to the occasion. I may be biased, but I'm really proud of Youngjae for not only performing his parts, but substituting for Himchan as well. All in all, amazing comeback B.A.P!


For their comeback stage, NU'EST performed Hello Hello and Hello (I find that kind of funny. Stop greeting us NU'EST, we get it. Yoboseyo!) Are injured idols becoming a trend nowadays? Because Aron suffered a thigh muscle injury during their comeback practice. Still, he was able to join his fellow group members for the performance. Props to him. This was another great comeback, as NU'EST sang the whole thing live and performed with confidence. Just wish the fans didn't scream so damn loud!

This one is for all of the SHINee fans! Their third album titled "Dream Girl" is going to be released February 20. Here is the highlight medley since I can't embed for some reason. This album is actually one part of two releases. The first part being released this month is

The track list for this album is:
01. Spoiler (I don't think this one is in the medley)
02. Dream Girl
03. 히치하이킹 (Hitchhiking) (my favorite)
04. Punch Drunk Love
05. Girls, Girls, Girls
06. 방백 (Aside)
07. 아름다워 (Beautiful)
08. 다이너마이트 (Dynamite) (this one is a close second)
09. Runaway

Edit: The MV Teaser is to be released on the 18th of February and the single "Dream Girl" is to be released on the 19th.

I only really love two of the songs from the medley. I'm just relieved that there isn't any dubstep. Overall I can't say that I'm impressed but hopefully I'll change my mind once the album comes out.

SM, I don't like you, and you wouldn't like me if you heard the things I say about you, but don't you dare ruin this comeback. I expect some TOP QUALITY in the next album or so help me.

I listened to the melody yesterday, Kaimeanogo! I was going crazy over how good it sounds. Obviously, it isn't R&B like their Romeo mini, but they seem to be following the Sherlock route with fun, retro songs which I'm really excited for!

The songs that caught my attention from the melody were Runaway, Dream Girl, Hitchhiking, Dynamite and Punch Drunk Love. Now, I finally understand what acid electro funk means and I'm loving it.

SM is attempting to be cohesive for once, I'm impressed. As long as the album being split in two makes sense lyrically and conceptually, then I'm all for it.

I just can't wait for the Dream Girl MV!

I loved their Romeo mini, actually, it's my favorite of all of their albums and the one that got me into them :D

I also saw the medley last night but completely forgot to post it here. I'm still on the fence about the album, acid electro funk isn't exactly my favorite genre, but I appreciate them experimenting with different styles.

I heard that the teaser for the Dream Girl MV is going to be released some time today or tomorrow, I'll post it as soon as it's released.

Omgg BAP's new song has been on repeat for hoursss. I normally get bored of music videos but holy shit theirs is so epic I cantttt.

Yeah, I still listen to the Romeo mini to this day. I haven't listened to their other albums though, save for Sherlock and Dazzling Girl (I should change that). But the Romeo album definitely caught my attention and got me interested in SHINee, like it did for you!

I love retro, funky 80s songs so I'm happy with this direction they're going in. At the same time, I can understand you being on the fence since it is a new genre for them, and the results can either be exceptional or lackluster. Hopefully, it's the former.

AHHHHHHH, REALLY? I can't wait, I'll spazz out as soon as you post it!!

I don't know how to tag users, but Kaimeanogo!! Did you see the SHINee CSI video that was posted last night?

Onew is just too cute for words, this whole thing was hilarious. (There are English subtitles available if you click the 'cc' button)

That same youtube channel also posted NU'EST's first mini concert, for any NU'EST fans that are interested.

EDIT: THE DREAM GIRL MV TEASER IS OUT!

Nope, I actually went to bed right before the teaser was released. I have awful timing, I know.

That interview was mega cute. Onew you are so silly <3

The teaser looks interesting. I like the DNA thing they have going on there. I'm really excited for the full MV now!

The teaser does look really interesting but if the whole MV is like that, then my eyes are really going to hurt by the end of it.

I'm more interested in the choreography to be honest. I think SHINee is the best dance group I have seen in Kpop.

Oh, of course! Everything about their comeback is just really exciting. For me, I think SHINee and Infinite are definitely two of the best dance groups that I know of.

I'm a few days late since I didn't even know about this one until just a few minutes ago, but here it is. The teaser MV of SHINee's newest japanese single Fire that's going to be released March 13th. I still can't embed what is this nonsense!?

I'm not too fond of the song. I guess I was expecting it to be a little more bombastic?

I like how it's as if the platform they're standing on is the candle, and they represent the flame? That's cool.

Though, all those girls standing around them holding candles is really freaking me out. It's like something straight out of the occult. *whispers* SHINee's being sacrificed. SHINee's being sacrificed, sacrificed, sacrificed, sacrificed...

Are they being sacrificed to Lucifer?

I just spit out my drink. I love you, Kaimeanogo.

Now Sherlock's going to have a new case to investigate, "The Dazzling Disappearance of SHINee".

I am so sorry I don't know what I'm doing.

I think I saw a clue at Jojo's place. She always did have an obsession with them.

I don't know what I'm doing either.

Senorita Jojo sent a note to a girl by the name of Juliette and in that note, the SHINee world will be opened up to whoever reads it.

SHINee world is the best place! I even set my alarm clock to wake up early for tomorrow's SHINee girl contest. The winner gets a shout out in one of their songs!

Haha, I give up. My SHINee knowledge falls flat in comparison to you, sensei.

It helps that I have all of their albums~

The only kpop artist whose entire discography I have is Teen Top. Teen Top.

Well that...well. That's a good thing, right? All of the albums I have were given to me by my Kpop obsessed best friend though, so I can't say that it was my hard work and dedication that got them.

I...guess? I went through a phase with them and now all their albums are here. Sadly, most people laugh at me when they see them. *single tear falls down*

Yep, what a lot of hard work that must of been...
Joking! That must be great though, having a friend to obsess over kpop with.

Can I just add that I'm loving all these little animal macros you're posting. I can't pick a favourite.

Oh, why thank you~ Yeah it's awesome having someone to obsess over Kpop with. Thanks to her I no longer have space on my Ipod for anything else.
