    K-Pop Appeciation Thread

    Posted · Edited by Matt

    All I've heard since I first got into kpop a few months ago on the various kpop blogs/site is "iKON's coming iKON's coming!" and I was prepared for something spectacular and... well... I was underwhelmed, to say the least.  Granted, I know this is a "pre-debut" release (whatever that really means, I'm not entirely sure), so I'm hoping the actual debut has some punch to it.

     

    Really, REALLY like "Fire" by Junho.  And that MV for "So Good" is, well, SOOOO GOOD!

     

    Meanwhile, did anyone catch the special release of "Amen" by Monsta X?!?  They're marketing & promotion & style is so totally bad boy hip hop-ish, but this video has to be the cutest, most adorable "off brand" thing I've ever seen.

     

     

    And, back to Seventeen, I actual bought that entire EP and every single track is good.  They've quickly become one of my favorite boygroups to watch.

    Yeah.  Apparently JYP's youtube account got hacked (or something) & the video got deleted & they had to reuploaded it.  And I totally agree about Dumb Dumb.  I wasn't sure what to make of all the teasers (and the video is still whack as f-ck), but I cannot get that "dumbdumbdumbdumbdumb" out of my head.

    Seventeen's new song "Mansae" just dropped & (as to be expected based on the awesomeness of Adore U) it is FABULOUS!!!

    Ok.  I'm am SO TOTALLY HERE for this.  Holy [!@#$%^&*].  Thanks to the internet, I've already listened to the whole EP (the first time I've EVER listened to a whole kpop EP/Album) and this is really THE [!@#$%^&*].  These boys are going to be HUGE.

    DAY6 - Congratulations

    OMG! I watch EVERY single music show performance of MTTM just for that flying in move alone.  That entire dance routine is one of my favorites out of all the boyband routines I've watched.

    Now that I've gotten acclimated to the new releases, I've been digging to back catalogs & I love every single single EXO has put out, so much so that I went and bought all of them on itunes. lol  I really, REALLY love Mama.  And I just downloaded a bunch of T-ara stuff the other day because I kept finding hits of theirs that I freaking loved.  Rolly Polly is the silliest song ever, but I couldn't get it out of my head.

    TOTALLY agree about Hyuna's new song.  Catchy as all get out. But I'm never quite sure what the song's actual title is because I've seen both "Roll Deep" as well as "Because I'm the Best." lol

    I've also been feeling the 2 new Girls' Generation songs, "Lion Heart" & "You Think"

     

    B1A4's "Sweet Girl" is simply a smooth, discoy confection

    Of course, I then had to go looking back at older B1A4 songs & found "Solo Day" WHICH I LOVE!!!

    Accidentally stumbled down the rabbit hole of K-Pop a few weeks ago thanks to an article on Billboard about K-Pop boybands.  I'd never listened at all before that, but now I am OBSESSED.  Quite literally, K-Pop is just about ALL I've listened to for WEEKS now.  It started with MVs on youtube, progressed to buying songs on itunes, now watching reaction vids, countdown vids, & performance vids from the various K-Pop music shows.  This has become a sickness.  I am not seeking an antidote.

    On the classic NBC sitcom, Sanford and Son, Fred (Redd Foxx) follows Lamont (Demond Wilson) and Rollo (Nathaniel Taylor) to a studio to get a part in a movie, not knowing that it is a pornographic movie. At the 6:40 mark, Fred enters the producer's office and there is a picture of Alice Frame (Jacqueline Courtney) and Eliot Carrington (James Douglas) directly over Fred's shoulder. The publicity department at NBC must have given the show the photos. This episode also contains one of Aunt Esther's (Lawanda Page) first appearances on the show. At the 14:45 mark begins a hilarious exchange between Fred and Aunt Esther in the jail. There is no way a writer scripted all the one-liners in this scene. Rather, it relies on the comic genius of Foxx and Page and the chemistry they had together.

    Also, if I'm not mistaken, the photo in the bottom right corner is Peter Brown & Denise Alexander as Greg & Susan Peters from DAYS, because I've seen that exact same picture before.

    Sometimes the number of an episode and the total number of actual episodes doesn't line up due to how they used to number scripts/episodes. It seems to have been a general practice back in the day that followed a 01/02/03/04/05 & 06/07/08/09/10 M/Tu/W/Th/F pattern so that the number of every Friday's episode would either end in a 0 or a 5. I believe Dark Shadows employed this system (often with multiple episodes ending up with the same number) and we've discovered that The Doctors seems to use this system as well. I believe I even heard about The Guiding Light doing the same. This would mean that if Episode #1233 aired on Wednesday & a preemption happened on Thursday, Episode #1234 would air on Friday (because it had already been written/taped), but new scripts/taped material would go back to the original pattern so that Episode #1255 would air on a Friday again, which might cause there to not even be an episode with a given number because that episode number was skipped to resume the pattern. This could help explain wonky episodes numbers & counts.
