#BNK48​ : BY​ THE​ WAY

[wolflover33100aj]

YouTube did a music wrapped for me....

I don't know why they didn't put CGM48 on there since I also listen to them a lot

[haropro-confessions]

I used to be a big BNK48 fan so Haruka reminds me of Kaimook. Not visually but their features and smolness. I love love love the way Kaimook styles herself because she always has the cutest outfits and makeups. Since they're similar I think Haruka would look just as cute and make her stand out from the others.

hihiiiiiii

hello friends! 𓍢ִ໋🌷͙֒ ᰔᩚ my name is Jaid, but you can call me Cassie. I'm making this account with the intention of being a fan account for Saito Nagisa and other girl groups I like, as well as a blog for my personal life ♡⸜(ˆᗜˆ˵ )⸝♡

🌷About Me!🌷

♡ My birthday is September 1st, 2009, so as of right now, I'm 13

♡ My pronouns are she/her :D

♡ I like k-pop, j-pop, and c-pop groups, as well as BNK48, JKT48, MNL48, CGM48, SNH48, AKB48 team TP, AKB48 team SH, and may more groups/artists rom all over the world!

♡ My favorite animal is rabbits, though I would love to have a cat.

♡ My ult groups are WJSN, PIXY, Weeekly, and =LOVE.

♡ I consider myself a professional girl group stan, as I stan over 50 girl groups, 5 soloists, and I can name all the members of BNK48. (you can always message me to ask about different groups and if I stan/like them!)

♡ I like to think of myself as confident and caring, as well as sweet and compassionate. I'm always open to making friends, though I don't have that many irl.

♡ Of course, I'm not against boy groups, I just find that in my opinion women suit most concepts better (also it's hard to find a boy group that could fit the bubblegum k-pop concept)

♡ My ult biases/oshimens are Seola (WJSN), Rinji (PIXY), Park Soeun (Weeekly), and Saito Nagisa (former =LOVE)

🌷Finishing Thoughts!🌷

Though Nagi-chan has graduated from =LOVE, I will continue to love and support them until they are no longer an idol group. My new oshimen is Takiwaki Shoko, she was my 2nd oshimen when Nagi-chan was still in =LOVE .

As I mentioned before, my pronouns are she/her and I'm a cis girl. I'm also straight. You may be wondering, "Cass, how can you only like girl groups but also only like men?" And I will gladly tell you! I admire them like sisters. I don't feel any attraction towards any of the women I stan. I think it's more of an admiration than an attraction. I aspire to be like them, and I think of idols like mentors and people to look up to! I think all the girls in the groups I stan are beautiful and unique in every way!

sorry if that was lame, I talk a lot so I apologize for the rambling

BNK48's documentary, BNK48: Girls Don't Cry, is on Netflix! Would recommend to any fan of the group or who's interested in idol culture. It gives you a sense of the joys and struggles of being in an idol group in a way that doesn't minimise the problems the girls face while also acknowledging the reasons why they love being in the group.

‘All of Us Are Dead’ Renewed for Season 2 at Netflix

The dead are rising once again. “All of Us Are Dead,” the popular Korean zombie series, has been renewed for Season 2 at Netflix.

The zombie horror series is one of the streamer’s top ten non-English-language shows of all time and its second most successful Korean-produced show, after last year’s “Squid Game.”

The news was announced as part of Netflix’s Geeked Week. The event is intended to showcase new and returning series, in addition to positioning Netflix as the home of Asian horror and sci-fi genre content. The company said that from 2020 to 2021, viewing of sci-fi and horror on Netflix in the Asia-Pacific region has grown 30% and 20%, respectively.

The Geeked Week video featured the four main actors of the series — Park Ji-hu, Yoon Chan-young, Cho Yi-hyun and Lomon — thanking fans for their support of the show and confirming that Season 2 is on the way.

Based on the Korean webtoon “Now at Our School” by Joo Dong-geun, “All of Us Are Dead” follows several ordinary high schoolers who end up at ground zero of a zombie apocalypse after a science experiment gone awry. Cut off from the outside world by the government, which seeks to contain the outbreak, the group is forced to protect themselves, all while dealing with heavy interpersonal tension. The first season finale of the show ended on a cliffhanger, with six survivors from the outbreak rescued but quarantined by the government, and class president Nam-ra (Cho) now a half-zombie.

Netflix reports that, after its premiere, “All of Us Are Dead” shot straight into the Top 10 most-watched non-English TV series in 91 countries and stayed there for two consecutive weeks. It also drew 361 million viewing hours in its first 10 days.

In addition to Park, Yoon, Cho and Lomon, the series also stars Yoo In-soo, Lee Yoo-mi, Kim Byung-chul, Lee Kyu-hyung and Jeon Bae-soo. The series was adapted from the original webtoon by Chun Sung-il, Lee Jae-kyoo and Kim Nam-su, with Chun serving as head writer and Lee Jae-kyoo and Kim Nam-su directing the first season.

Continuing the school and horror combination, Netflix announced a first season for “School Tales The Series.” The eight-part Thai-produced series is an anthology mixing up spooky legends, ghost stories and tales of horror. Cast members are largely newcomers, but include BNK48 band member Jennis Oprasert (“Where We Belong”). Pass Patthankumjon, director of 2020 Netflix series “The Underclass” and the 2017 film “School Tales” for Thailand’s Five Star Movie, will direct the series. Netflix says it is aiming the new show at teen audiences, while also giving it an 18+ label for violence, sex, sexual violence, bad language, substance abuse and suicide. No release date was announced.

Japan’s “Alice in Borderland” Season 2 will arrive in December 2020. It is now in post-production. The first season was released in December 2020 and became a hit in Japan and overseas so quickly that the second season was announced within two weeks of the show’s launch. The story follows Arisu and Usagi as they risk their lives in the hope of returning to their original world by making it through a variety of games that play to different character traits, such as intelligence, strength and teamwork. The 10 cast members who won games at the end of Season 1 will be returning for the second season.

“We had these really large-scale scenes every day, and the world of the show is bigger than ever,” said returning cast member Yamazaki Kento in a statement. The show is based on an original comic written by Aso Haro that was serialized in Japanese weekly comic books Weekly Shonen Sunday S and Weekly Shonen Sunday between 2010 and 2016. The adapted screenplay for the first series was written by Watabe Yoshike, Kuramitsu Yasuko, and director Sato Shinsuke.

Programme for Friday 3rd May - ANTHONY WONG

The Hong Kong superstar returns to the Far East Film Festival after 20 years! Back in Udine to collect his Golden Mulberry Award for Outstanding Achievement and present the wonderful Still Human

Friday the 3rd of May. Penultimate day of the 21st Far East Film Festival. After Jeon Do-yeon and Yao Chen, it's time to turn the festival's spotlights on another superstar: Anthony Wong! He's played the lead in masterpieces like Johnnie To's The Mission. He's starred in unforgettable cult movies like Andrew Lau and Alan Mak's Infernal Affairs. He's been a hit man, a cop, a romantic hero and a serial killer. He's played every role in every genre, from crime and comedy to fantasy and splatter. His filmography is practically infinite, and it's no exaggeration to say that he is the face of the last thirty years of Hong Kong cinema...

Already a guest at the very first edition of the FEFF in 1999, when he presented Beast Cops by Gordon Chan and Dante Lam, Anthony now returns to Udine exactly twenty years later to collect his Golden Mulberry Award for Outstanding Achievement (taking his place in the Udine hall of fame alongside other giants of Asian cinema including Jackie Chan, Joe Hisaishi, Feng Xiaogang, Johnnie To and Brigitte Lin). A precious opportunity to see - or to see again - Mr. Wong close-up and to applaud two films that symbolise his history: his debut movie My Name Ain't Suzie, screened on April 30th, and the magnificent Still Human, showing at 7.40 pm today, which will see Anthony take the stage of the FEFF together with the film's director Oliver Chan and co-star Crisel Consunji.

Oliver Chan was crowned best new director (and Crisel Consunji nominated for best actress and best new actress) at the last Hong Kong Film Festival, and another film that was an awards hit at the festival is in the line-up for the eighth day of the FEFF: nail-biting thriller Project Gutenberg by Felix Chong. Pure Hong Kong style!

9.00 A First Farewell by Lina WANG (China, 2018)

Though still a child, Isa already has adult responsibilities: he must take care of his sick mother, watch the flock and attend school. He spends his only moments of leisure with his best friends, the children of a couple of cotton growers. A poetic tribute to a way of life that is disappearing: this, perhaps, is the farewell to which the title of the film alludes.

10.40 Hotel Soul Good by YAN Pak-wing (Hong Kong, 2018)

After a near-death experience, hotel executive Katy discovers she can see ghosts. Thanks to this, she now has some new friends: three spirits stuck in limbo who, in order to settle their pending accounts, must find a body they can possess to realize their desires. But Katy has a stroke of genius: opening a hotel for ghosts. A retro romantic comedy that celebrates kindred "spirits".

12.35 BNK48: Girls Don’t Cry by THAMRONGRATTANARIT Nawapol (Thailand, 2018)

With more than 50 members, Thai pop group BNK48 – along with the crazed fandom typical of Asian idols - is turning the country upside down. This documentary raises the curtain to show what's behind the scenes: to get the best performances out of the group, the girls are forced to compete against their best friends, and the singers find themselves imprisoned in a never-ending popularity contest.

14.35 Project Gutenberg by Felix CHONG (Hong Kong, 2018)

The Hong Kong police are on the trail of a gang of counterfeiters, led by a mysterious boss called "Painter": their ruthlessness and skill at counterfeiting make them public enemy number one. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and in order to stop them the department is forced to recruit a well-known forger. A tense new thriller by the creators of Infernal Affairs.

17.00 Dare to Stop Us by SHIRAISHI Kazuya (Japan, 2018)

Young Megumi enters the flamboyant world of the independent Japanese cinema of the '70s, of which the enfant terrible is Wakamatsu. Full of unbridled creativity, Wakamatsu makes pioneering 'pink' films that use sex and violence to critique the society of the day. A film about the subversive power of cinema but also the portrait of an oddball "family" and the bonds that keep it together.

19.40 Still Human by Oliver CHAN (Hong Kong, 2018)

Leung has been paralysed for years and can only move his arms. Considering himself a victim of life, he has closed in on himself - but despite his difficult character, an affectionate relationship forms little by little with his carer, who helps him to realize his dream. A delicate story told with powerful realism featuring an incredible performance from Anthony Wong

21.55 Fly Me to the Saitama by TAKEUCHI Hideki (Japan, 2019)

The centre vs the suburbs: it's a rivalry as old as cities themselves. And if the city is a Tokyo that looks like a new Versailles and persecutes the inhabitants of the less dashing Saitama, things get complicated fast and war is inevitable. Will modern-day Romeo and Juliette Momomi and Rei manage to bring peace? From the director of Thermae Romae, an outrageously pop, all-out manga-style comedy!

0.00 The Devil Fish by David CHUANG (Taiwan, 2018)

In Taiwanese folklore, to kill a demon you must trap it inside a fish which is then fried. After catching one of these fish, a gangster becomes possessed and kills his entire family. Taoist priest Chen is called in to perform an exorcism - but when a young boy films the ceremony and shares it with his friends, the curse starts to spread…

“At Khon Kaen University in Northeastern Thailand, students leave bottles of red Fanta by a long bridge with white railings. According to some communicants, the drinks are offerings to the ghosts of the Thammasat University students murdered in the 6 October 1976 massacre.”

“Despite the best attempts of authorities to disappear the events of 6 October 1976, traces linger on in the Thai memory. Now the music video for the extraordinary Rap Against Dictatorship song “Prathet ku mi” (“my country has…”) has torn open the most sensitive wound of Thailand’s past for a new generation.”

(...)

“Ever since the king of luk thung Suraphon Sombatjaroen was murdered in 1968 after refusing to play a concert for a high ranking army officer, Thai performers have been shy of taking on the military. Thousands of songs praise the courage of average Thai soldiers, but almost none have tackled the army’s role in restricting democracy and spreading corruption. “Prathet ku mi” targets celebrities who support the military regime: “The country where artists pretend to be rebels.” The regime began co-opting musicians immediately after the 2014 coup with Prayut’s program of “Returning Happiness to the People”, including free luk thung concerts by performers such as Bor Annop and Nim Khanuengphim. In June 2016 the Electoral Commission’s “7 August, Be United” song to promote the referendum featured Isan indie star Korng Huairai warning his fellow Isan people not to “let anyone mislead your way. Be conscious and use your judgement. Don’t let anyone trick you.” More recently, celebrities, including singer Cherprang Areekul, the frontwoman of girl group BNK48, and Isan actor Nadech Kugimiya, lined up to host episodes of the government show “Walk Forward Together Thailand.” Then, last week, one of Thailand’s most established and best-known rapper, Oui from the group Buddha Bless, criticised RAD for their “novice political views” and “legal violations”, saying that “freedom of expression should not be limitless, and there should be a boundary beyond which one should not cross”.“
