2NE1 NEWS!?!??!?!?!??! IN 2024?!?!?!??!!? SCREAMIINNGGGGG

[a9saga]

2ne1 - fire, I am the best live at MAMA 2015 // really been on that 2015 kpop shit these past couple weeks

[cozmoz]

To HYBE Entertainment

I have an idea, that could probably do really for hybe, and thats picking up old idol groups and soloists and putting them back into popularity again. Like 2ne1, 4minute, etc. etc.

They can even make a sub/branch under the company and name it the ressurection label, or the legendaries label.

Yes? No?

[toddstool]

it's crazy how much better rockstar is compared to lalisa and money. love to see this company treating her like the queen she is instead of a YG asset

also it's funny cuz i saw so many locals hating on rockstar like it feels soooo forced lol. sry it doesn't sound like something teddy shit out

KARD Comeback Celebration: My Favorite Debuts

KARD's four-song debut project is one of my favorite debuts--not only does it remain a k-pop classic, but it also produced one of my favorite songs ever. As I'm checking out KARD's newest comeback, I wanted to reflect on the k-pop debuts that have stuck with me in the same way KARD's did.

[Rules: B-sides from the debut album count because I said so!! Also, I tried not to pick obvious ones--like of course ShinEE's "Replay" and Yena's "Smiley" are awesome, but I think most of us already know that!]

Hot Issue -- 4Minute: This can't be my favorite 4Minute track, since "Volume Up" and "Crazy" exist, but it's REALLY fun. It's catchy, and the members really lean into the concept in a way that foreshadows later greatness. With a debut like this, it's hard not to love 4Minute, I think.

I Will Show You -- Ailee: Since "Heaven" was just a single, I'm not counting it as an official debut (plus, I like this one better, anyway)! "I Will Show You" is a transcendent showcase of vocal power that hits me right in the heart and carved out a space just for Ailee in my memory from first listen.

Fight Day -- Bol4: I actually didn't know that this was their debut until I looked it up and checked, but it's always been my favorite from their first album. It's alt-rock with a little bit of bite to it, added mostly by Bol4's unique vocals, and it's still one of their best songs.

One of Those Nights -- Key: This was actually my favorite song ever for a solid year or so, though Phoebe Bridgers eventually knocked it out of the top spot. The chorus just never stops hitting for me, transporting me to the soft, sentimental world of my favorite Webtoons with just a few notes.

Yolowa -- GWSN: This does a great job of displaying their signature super-sweet sound while pairing it with maybe their most memorable melody ever ??? Too good to be a b-side, truly.

Stay Up -- Baekhyun: Another b-side, but this album is too good for people to just listen to "UN Village." This track is a very soothing combo of a catchy chorus and muted tones--in other words, it's a perfect intro to his later albums!

Bon Bon Chocolat -- Everglow: I know everyone thought "So Bad" was pop perfection, but I'm actually kind of meh on it--which is especially weird considering that StayC is my favorite k-pop group! "Bon Bon Chocolat" is my "So Bad," icy but full of flavor. I think a lot of people liked "Bon Bon Chocolat" when it came out, but I don't hear about it enough anymore, so I'm bringing it back as an act of public service!

Flowering -- Lucy: This may well be my favorite Lucy song, and they've released some absolutely BEAUTIFUL stuff since. Right from their debut, they've had the bittersweet sound perfected, and this track is a wonderful demonstration of that.

Swear -- E'Last: I still vivdly remember experiencing this debut--the title track is grandiose, even a bit too melodically complex for a pop release, which fascinated me and kept me attached listen after listen, trying to figure out all the pieces of the song. Their vocalists take the challenge well, though, giving a performance to remember. Still their best song!

Ponzona -- Purplekiss: I'm glad "Sweet Juice" brought orchestral Purplekiss back, because I think its lush instrumental is exactly what made their debut so great. Though I haven't loved too much of their music since, I think I keep tuning in because of just how much I enjoyed this one.

Glassy -- Jo Yuri: The best Jo Yuri--a musical balancing act, a stunt I can't look away from, with equally delightful sections of chaos and order. Sweet and charming, but just dangerous enough to keep me interested from start to finish!

A channel I like, kpop stuffs, actually released a video ranking fourth gen debuts while I was working on this post! It's cute you should watch!! "Glassy" is way too low I'm crying (/j), but it's FINE I'll live I guess...

Excerpt from my voice messages to my family group chat, as the default speech to text function on my phone interpretated it (mostly meaning a lot of my "Um"s aren't here) dated Thursday October 6th, 5:37 AM

Okay so I just had a great idea while I was sending to my anime playlist so since since I wanted like listen to something or watch something I'm overly familiar with while I knit right listen to something in general and watch something I'm overly familiar with like two separate things and listening to anything f*** f*** okay it's really 5:30 but anyway so the idea is I watch Fullmetal Alchemist will end it until I finish reading Mostly Void, Partially Stars so I can get back to listening to Welcome to Night Vale maybe after that too

maybe watch a watch Brotherhood instead of 03

I don't know maybe I'll watch the first bit of a three and then watch Brotherhood I don't know

Fanservice?

In the lights of uhm.. everyday's events because at this point there's nothing occasional about this, i wanted to talk about this one subject :

✨Fanservice✨

Or as they call it in Korean 팬서비스 . Quite honestly i'm not making this post for you know who because as much as i want to educate them they're hard headed so this is more of a general knowledge for everyone and whoever wants to add it to their Kpopictionnary.

Fanservice is literally the act of servicing the fans aka doing things that would please the fans. I know that a lot of people think that fanservice = gay activities or queerbaiting well.. It's not entirely true, maybe it's a form we are more used to seeing nowadays but fan service can pretty much be a very straight activity as long as it keeps the fans entertained.

As a kpop oldie (i'm no expert just speaking from experience) i used to listen to 2NE1 and a bit of Bigbang and these two groups engaged in fanservice mainly because both of their fans liked the chemistry between them, i remember noticing this about CL and G-dragon, yes they were friends but that didn't mean that to please their fans they wouldn't do a lil something to make it look a tad bit romantic

In more recent kpop groups, despite me not knowing them all too much BUT i know OOO (OnlyOneOf) have this one "Libido" choreography that is very.. HUM and personally i know choreographies are a form of art but i also think that it has a bit of an act of service. But then one should be able to not mix up everything cause one of the members, Rie, has a song called "because" but because of the nature of the song, what it is talking about, the MV cannot be considered as fanservice.

In other words, just because something looks "gay" to you it does not mean that it is automatically an act of service.

In general the fanservice culture is pretty well known in Kpop but contrary to the past where it somehow was a bit of a "mandatory" thing, now as an idol you either chose to do it or you don't, and many times within the same group some chose to do it some don't, as long as the one who choses to do it respects the boundaries of the person who just isn't interested in it, then they're just having their fun.

Now moving on from generalities to specifications, BTS, which i've seen a lot of confusions and misinformation going on about them and fanservice. Will i be one of those who will say that they NEVER did that? No of course not i'm not that stupid and blind, but will i just lie and say that up until this day they are still engaging in it? Also no.

Listen, kpop idols in general have a tougher starts, and BTS just like other groups had to engage in some form of fanservice which is why you'd find videos like this on YT

And yes this whole thing was an act of service, remember their lil games too? Aka when Hobi stole tae's first kiss lol well yes that was an act of service. But you know what else is an act of service? Fan meets, because whether people are ready to accept that this also falls into the fanservice category or not, it IS a fanservice, an idol basically offers the fan the service of getting to see them up close, hold their hand, talk to them, give them gifts, etc..

Now just like i mentioned above, it is a bit less tough in the recent years as idols now have a choice, which was the case for our boys. Things change, the same way personalities do, the same way our boys in the past had a certain view about what masculinity is and what their view now is of masculinity, our boys are just no longer interested in that type of fanservice since within the years they've been together they grew closer and it's easier for them to naturally tend to be affectionate.

In what i like to call their "lil skit" on PTD in Seoul Jimin made it very clear that they're not into "fake stuff", why do i think that maybe it's a skit to get the message across, it's simply because our boys do go online and they do see what people say about them and in a way or in another they always tells us what's up, so of fucking course they must've known about how some "fans" seem to downgrade their bond into just an act of service.

While some smaller groups are still a bit "forced" into that extra bond with the members, i remember seeing somewhere that some idol confessed they weren't even that close but they were forced to act like it, bigger groups like BTS don't need that anymore to push them further and yet "some people" like to still call their bond a fanservice simply because they have narratives that get humbled everytime and they're not ready to accept it.

Whatever activitiy a member choses to do with the other, this has nothing to do with fanservice whether you like it or not. Jimin attending Tae's music bank show is because he wants to support his friend, Namjikook attending and participating in Yoongi's concert is because they wanted to be there and wanted to do a surprise, any member chosing to hang out with another member or a member of a different group is not an act of service, they are human, and they have relationships with other humans which so happen to be their friends.

People need to stop putting the boys into a bubble they've created for them and anything that goes beyond that bubble is deemed unacceptable for them and titled as fanservice or "forced to do". BTS will ALL be in their 30's very soon, they are adults and very responsible for their own action, they are very big, very popular and don't need anyone to tell them what type of relationship they should be having with others.

I feel like countries need to invest in more green spaces because clearly some "fans" need to go outside and touch some grass they've been a bit too invested into the online community that they forgot that idols have lives and they can actually chose to be friends with members of their own group too.

With that being said, let's please keep supporting our boys, we shouldn't let haters ruin our mood or try to pick fights with us, the best thing to do is ignore what we can and report what is harmful. Have a nice day y'aaaall and STREAM MUSE!!!!

[matthewsgreybubbles]

hey babe i noticed your anons have been kinda negative / mean lately so i'm gonna spice it up a bit!!

what are your top three favorite music artists?? and are there any artists that you like that you think your fav cm characters would like too?

Hiii sweetie! Thank you that's so nice of you. This actually made me think about it for a bit.

I love so many bands that it was hard to choose, but I'm going to say that so we can have a little bit of everything. Various genres.

Motionless in white

She past away

Maneskin

And for the CM characters, I have so many ideas

Emily was goth during her teen years so I'm pretty sure she still listens to goth stuff like she wants revenge or she past away, the 69 eyes, etc.

Garcia is a big Lady Gaga enthusiastic. You cannot change my mind. I kinda see her following 2ne1 too. She's screaming "naega jeil jal naga" on her way to work every morning. To finish she also has a whimsical vibe with her, she might listen to goth stuff sometimes with Emily. Classic stuff like The Cure, Bauhaus or even Depeche Mode you know.

Rossi listen to Eros Ramazzotti. You cannot change my mind. He thinks he is the Italian lover Eros is, but he's not and that's cute.

JJ is quite a pretty preppy girlie so she might listen to Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter or Olivia Rodrigo.

Morgan plays big tough dude so I think he might listen to rap music, stuff like that, but I don't know anything about it sooo. In France, I would have told you that he listens to La Fouine. But I guess it's unknown here. That being said sometimes he secretly listens to what Garcia likes so he can sing in the car with her.

I would like Hotch to listen to 50's / 60's music like Little Richard. I like it in my head.

And Spencer probably used to listen to classical music with Gideon so he still does it. But baby is a troubled baby and I think he would listen to La Dispute sometimes. Helps him to deal with his fucked up life. Post-hardcore emo king.

Okay, that ended up being super long but I loved it.

CL (2NE1) - Medley [TREASURE 'REBOOT' Concert]

Kind of crazy to see the 2NE1 channel posting stuff again. She crushed this performance, seemed totally in her element, her stage presence is as strong as ever. This must have been so cool to see live, so curious as to how this upcoming reunion goes.

[gallopinggallifreyans]

idk I think there’s a level of integrity that older gen (kpop) groups have that the younger gens don’t really have. Fuck Seungri but bigbang had that integrity you just don’t find nowadays. They knew what they had and it was real. Same with 2ne1, GG, EXO, all the older stuff. I love new gen music too but it’s not the same? And like, TOP was right, why do we call it kpop. We don’t call it white pop why kpop

[impishsensei]

character info sheet

name: 五条悟 Gojo Satoru.

name meaning: the name satoru derives from the japanese verb "to know" or "understand". the kanji used in satoru's name specifically means "enlightenment" (悟).

alias: the strongest, blindfolded idiot/idiot

ethnicity: Japanese

picture/icon you like best of your character: putting two bc i'm torn :p (putting the rest under the cut bc this is p long)

ᴛʜʀᴇᴇ ʜᴇᴀᴅᴄᴀɴᴏɴs ʏᴏᴜ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ ᴛᴏʟᴅ ᴀɴʏᴏɴᴇ : 

he is a huge sone (fan of girl's generation). in general i imagine he's a huge fan of 2nd gen kpop. i can see him being part of the war between snsd and 2ne1 fans... in modern non-sorcery au he probably has an edgy account where he talks endless shit abt p much any release past 2015 (aside from his faves). yes ik this is goofy but just hear me out and see the vision. his bias is yuri c: // just wanna say when i joke abt this it does not reflect how i feel lmao

i'm not sure if it's ever been addressed why satoru doesn't drink ? but regardless of whatever chatgeget said idgaf, i'm taking canon from him and making my own. anyway i say that satoru doesn't drink because it messes with his six eyes too much... tho i do love the idea that he got wasted someday and it was horrendous. idk it just makes sense. he keeps from it as a precaution lmao

greg claims satoru is a natural genius at everything but i reject that because i think it'd be funny if he's a disaster in the kitchen. actually most household type stuff, i think he'd be horrendously bad at it... cooking is the worst tho. do NOT let gojo into the kitchen he will blow that shit tf up.

ᴛʜʀᴇᴇ ᴛʜɪɴɢs ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ʟɪᴋᴇs ᴅᴏɪɴɢ ɪɴ ᴛʜᴇɪʀ ғʀᴇᴇ ᴛɪᴍᴇ :

ik canon says he has no hobbies bc he can do anything but I reject that once more. satoru likes to watch tv... he loves movies, reality tv, and soap operas especially. idk he seems like the kind of guy that looooooves juicy drama

taking the students out into the city, like to eat or sight see or other super fun stuff. satoru doesn't get that much time off, but he likes to use the sundays he does have for this

when he's not doing his work as a sorcerer/teacher or any of the above stuff... he dates around. he's a bit for the streets... nothing ever lasts long, but satoru craves companionship. he usually ends up fucking it up just by being busy, or ghosts because he believes serious romance is just something he can't do

sɪx ᴘᴇᴏᴘʟᴇ ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ʟɪᴋᴇs / ʟᴏᴠᴇs :

everyone obviously,,, though if i have to narrow it down then megumi, suguru, tsumiki, shoko, ijichi, yaga and all of his other old classmates and students. he deeply treasures these ppl in his life, and he takes being the strongest to heart so much bc it means protecting them and/or fostering their growth

ᴛᴡᴏ ᴛʜɪɴɢs ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ʀᴇɢʀᴇᴛs :

not noticing something was wrong with suguru sooner

not having more time with everyone before, ya know... :c

ᴛᴡᴏ ᴘʜᴏʙɪᴀs ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴄʜᴀʀᴀᴄᴛᴇʀ ʜᴀs :

i don't think satoru has like... any legit/proper phobias? i do think he is scared of being hurt deeply tho, like how he felt when suguru defected. he doesn't want to feel that way again so he maintains a bit of distance (or tries to)

staying alone always. he already feels alone but just... lowkey hopes that it won't always be that way (ig he never really realized how much everyone around him loved him ;3;)

[supernovasimplicity]

what are your top 5 kpop groups? (and if you want, fav song for each?)

OOH thank you for the question! so I don't really follow artists, in general, I listen to a bunch of kpop in mixed autogenerated playlists like a savage 🥲

that being said!

Shinee. my friend introduced me to shinee like way back in 2008/2009 and I would follow them anywhere <3

GOT7. i've been in and out of the kpop world since being introduced to shinee way back when, and I feel like I knew all about GOT7 before i'd ever really listened to them. I just like em!

BTS. I never claimed I wasn't basic, I like their stuff, I listen to them a lot

Mamamoo. they were the spiritual successor to 2NE1 I truly wanted <3

KARD. are they the only really cool group in kpop? perhaps. all I know is when they release something new i'll make a point to go listen to it

[aphrodite1288]

Currently, the drug controversy between actor Lee Sun-kyun and singer G-Dragon is becoming a big issue, and artists from BTS, YG, and SM are being mentioned due to this incident. There are also rumors that Gyeongsu is among them. I watched it on a YouTube channel called ‘Kang Reporter TV(강기자TV)’.

https://youtu.be/H3Tq_9Jn1Zc?si=FBXhh-OOFLJZE0L0

The list is made with initials. This is a list of celebrities who went to the entertainment establishment that Lee Sun-kyun attends, even if it was not because of drugs. The list seems to have spread and disappeared, but a YouTuber revealed in a video ('가로세로 연구소') that it is the most global star group among SM groups, and two of them are said to be so.

https://www.youtube.com/live/F-2VeMRVZgg?si=sqNYU9SsLChJ5rY_

I want the content to be fake. I'd like to know your thoughts on it. Find out from those involved. I'm sorry I'm not good at English.

When you see such News about drugs that may have happened 10 years ago or may not even have happened, or such a massive Dating scandal of two big celebrities you should know there are serious matters happening behind the scenes in the government.

Old admins have mentioned that no Kpop idol skipped the smoking or anti-Depressants and SOME unfortunately go the hard way to drugs. Unfortunately this is very common among celebrities all over the world, it's due to the stress. But lemme tell you a drug addict won't be healthy like Ksoo for example or all of the Exos or even V and BTS the boys are very healthy and smiley and calm. A drug addict I'd always agitated and at least once you'd see him doing weird stuff or behaving in an abnormal way in the streets or on a red carpet or a show or a concert, because Drug addiction doesn't know the place or the time, if you didn't take it you'd go crazy.

All what I can say, about GD don't cancel him like y'all did to B.I from iKon and Bom of 2ne1, you should support them through this time because they are being used to cover up more serious shit happening in the government. it's always the big 4 who have to take responsibility and do a camouflage and sway the general public from the serious issue that really matters. And they did succeed in taking the Koreans and Korea residents from kpopers and foreignerd from the real matters happening in the government and all the boycotting and the Movements and complaints and requests from the people of Korea.

I don't wanna talk about this . So don't ask me again.
