Yeah I think they’re all just special clips and not proper MVs. Glad we’re getting so many though. Only IU gets double/triple/Quad MVs :lol:

SHINee's back




If we're not including the songs on the album that had videos before it released, Yenny put out 5 for 1719, which was a loving blessing. The one for Cigar had been filmed a couple years ago, but never put out.

PS her little web series finally added English subs for the few early episodes that didn't have any, would recommend.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBtQv3g3XQQ

The mind is forever boggled at how ridiculously talented all of the Wonder Girls are. Sunmi, Yenny and Yubin are insanely talented singer-songwriters, Yub has her own loving company now ffs, Hyelim is doing hella well in the academic field and as a writer, and hosting shows. Sunye surely would have a loving bangin' solo career if she wasn't instead focusing on raising her children r/n.

loving love that they're all thriving still, and the talent they all have individually is ridiculous-- and hell we can even include HyunA in this discussion, tbqh!

Sohee also has a pretty good youtube (all eng subbed), I think she mentioned on I live alone or somewhere that she was going through a rough patch for a while and forcing herself to try new things weekly for youtube content helped her get out of that. Her most recent video is her learning a bit of sign language

I was just listening to the album version and thinking the same. GSoul is great and sounds amazing with Wheein, but the Wheein only version bumps it up to my fave release from Redd.

I didn't notice until seeing the lyrics in that video that the chorus has "decalcomanie" in it. Shoutout to the best Mamamoo song or is that word just weirdly common in Korea?

Yeah it's a common theme and motif in Korean art. They use it to mean mirrored image that's nearly indistinguishable from the original but implies flaws. The original title of Parasite was The Decalcomanie.

I don't really love the way any of these sound, the title track sounds alright until the very end of its preview, shoot sounds like a million other songs I've heard but I guess it's unique for kpop

It's a huge kpop social network thing similar to Weverse. It has chat with idols like bubble, avatar things like zapeto, etc. It also has exclusive content from the artists and creepy ai voice recreation calls. They've done a few of these collab videos/songs to highlight featured artists.

They filmed this before the Soojin stuff so she'll be in group scenes but the song had her parts rerecorded afterwards unfortunately.

She might be able to get by with a proper apology and a hiatus, maybe throw in some community service. It's just a bit harder now because of Cube's statements.

Feb 15, 2006

It's basically up to the courts now from what I understand but I think Cube's defamation against her character is a much stronger case (in SK you can sue someone for it even if they are telling the truth) than the bullying accusations (which I don't know if even rise to the level of criminal even if true). The only lawsuit from the accuser side is against online comments AFAIK.

Also, them being Cube's money maker group and one of 3 girl groups signed to a western label gives them a lot of financial stakes to keep the group whole and strong and settle it in a way that makes it go away from the public conversation. I think she'll keep laying low until at least summer and maybe they'll have a big fall comeback.

Probably worth watching how things play out with Red Velvet OT5 and seeing the public reception to that. Irene's scandal was recent as an adult and something she apologized for publicly, but the general attitude towards her was similar. Hyunjin from Stray Kids is another example and more in line with Soojin's case, but JYP seemed to handle that much better than Cube did. Cube was aggressive with denial/statements in a way that just added fuel to the fire instead of sweeping it under the rug.

Schpyder
Jun 13, 2002

Attackle Grackle

The last comms from Cube was a lengthy and detailed doc from Soojin of complete denial in significant detail, which also made the bone-headed decision of stating outright that this would be their last public statement on the matter, basically calling out anyone who's been pussyfooting around accusations (mainly child actress Seo Shinae) to put up or shut up, and that if Soojin were found to be untruthful about anything, she would leave the group. And then it basically ended "see you in court." The forceful nature of the denial shifted public opinion a bit... for a few days.

But since then, roughly half a dozen accusers have come forward (including SSA) for the "put up" part of her/Cube's challenge, in detail. Since her team's not commenting any more, this stuff is just hanging out there unaddressed, and knetz are absolutely done with Soojin at this point. I honestly don't know what Cube was thinking with this strategy other than of course she's telling the truth and will be completely vindicated in court, because that's what we need to happen. But they're far, far past the point where an apology and hiatus can patch this over. They put all their chips on complete exoneration via the legal system, and that's where it's gonna have to play out at this point.

Seo Shinae was never one of the original accusers, she was brought into it by someone else and only recently made a statement after being hounded for one tbf

e: iirc she only made a statement after cube/soojin publically called her out to make one

Cube's handling of this has been awful and not at all comparable to the Irene thing

I mentioned her and Hyunjin since they’re the other two scandals from active groups that really stuck that I know of, and it will be worth seeing how they make their reentry to the spotlight. Though as I said I agree Cube only made things worse for themselves and Soojin.

The April scandal is some crazy poo poo, too. But most of the others do seem to have died down, yeah.

I really don't know how Cube will dig their way out of this. Even if they win any legal cases they might be pursuing and can prove she never bullied anybody, Soojin's reputation is pretty much hosed beyond belief at this point. It will probably follow her for the rest of her career if she ends up getting to stay in the group.

All members of a pink except na eun renewed their contracts with Play M. pretty happy that apink are just seemingly going to exist and have comebacks forever

The six members will continue to promote as A Pink, at times together, and at times separately. As A Pink will be celebrating their 10th anniversary this year, the girls are currently preparing for their comeback album. Please send your warm words of encouragements toward A Pink, as they work hard to return with a better image
