Wow, it looks great! Whose cards did you get? Share them with us!
I know you were addressing someone else, but mine also arrived :) Here's the back/front

This is very different but I like it. I checked out the whole mixtape and really liked Hope World, P.O.P, and Baseline. The album's very diverse sound wise too which I really enjoyed.
I feel the same, overall it's pretty solid and I'd say P.O.P is my favorite track.Between Jhope, Suga and Rapmons mixtapes I'd say this is probably my favorite one so far.

Nice! Congrats on the Irene card. She looks really cute! Did you only get one or was it a separate purchase?



This is so weird and different from their previous concepts. I like it.

I love the beat and I love the verses, but the chorus could've done without the shouting "Go! Go! Go!" and used only Haechan's ad libs instead.

Two points of clarification for newcomers to the thread:

wendy's full screen name does not originate from Red Velvet, so the RV-ception tombstone post isn't quite what it seems.

oc_'s full screen name is originally orange caramel, so llehuty's Orange Caramel remark isn't a random Pledis swipe.


damn bro, so hostile. who said it's more valid than anyone else's?

let's make this less of a pain for you: wendy is the only one that matters in RV. better? god damn crybabies, i swear. didn't think i'd have to block someone from this place but so be it and honestly, it's not even worth posting in this community anymore. adios.
oc_, not like this...


nothin but nugus hating on my rankings...
Because this thread is 90% nugus...
yeah.. i recognize maaaaaaaaybe 3 people from the last two pages. we've been taken over. gg
For the most part, the OG posters and "2nd wave" posters are no longer active, or have left entirely, so you mostly have people who joined within the past 2-3 years on Era or at the old place.

Add to that some people who are on their 3rd/4th screen name, and those who post as a different persona... anything is better than unfunny attention whore joke character posts that threaten to get the thread locked.

I think I like seeing the old Saturn background games more than the cards heh. But nice cards! Makes me wish I still had room for physical k-pop goods/cds

Just one. I don't know if the CDs ever come with more than one card, at least with my luck. I think the only exception for me has been one of the last two Wonder Girls CDs.

I got both Bad Boy posters, and now I'm trying to figure out where to put them. Living room walls are running out of space!

I love that the tradition of Perfume getting posted in the k-pop thread because it's fucking Perfume still continues here on Era.
Top tier Japanese music acts like Perfume, Scandal, etc. are always on-topic in this thread.
I mean it's fucking Perfume.




Have yet to listen to the 2 newest NCT songs but these 2 are very good:




This is so hype. O_O

*Edit* Found her soundcloud. https://soundcloud.com/sandybeach0205

Nice.


And... Somehow and for some reason, the Ark reunited for a dance practice.
THE FEELS!
They were great. Best band that only ever released one song. (Their dance covers were so good; loved when BTS was impressed by their cover.)
Why is this new, random dance practice so bittersweet?

Why do I still like this group so much when they only released one song?

Why did I want Euna Kim to make the final cut alongside Halla/Suji so much as past of Uni.t?

Why did DAYDAY get euthanised before they released any songs at all? https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCklfhfBVBwPExzVYFF7ZOAQ/videos

Why is the universe plotting against Minju?

Today is Yeri's birthday! She posted two series of videos on Instagram.

The first one was a cover of Story, the song she wrote and composed for Ragoon last year.


The second one is a self-composed song called 1000, and it's dedicated to all her fans. It's a really sweet song.


Happy birthday, Kim Yerim!!!

Huh, I always thought they came with two cards. My mistake, then! But you got a really good one, regardless.

I gasped out loud in the theater when I heard the fish lady's shitty Korean. They were filming in Korea and couldn't get a Korean speaker lol

I also caught myself thinking, again, that the Korean government is wasting money paying Marvel to keep shooting in Korea, because they're really bad at showing off anything interesting about the country

Whatever happened to the 2 former members of Hello Venus who were under Pledis, Yoo Ara and Yoon-jo? They left the group when Pledis' partnership with Fantagio ended, but Pledis seemingly did nothing with them.

Yoonjo was on The Unit and made the final group. Ara from what I've gathered from her Insta has been attending/finishing university.

Would just like to apologise, my intention was never to make anyone leave the thread, nor force someone to have to block me or anything like that. Genuinely love being a part of this community, and i'd had a particularly shitty day the other day, so if my post came off as stand-offish, it really wasn't my intention.

If anyone could relay these thoughts onto OC from me, i'd appreciate it.

I wouldn't worry about it. I felt like OC's post did come off as somewhat elitist at the very least and their reply to you was rude and of out of line. It probably had more to do with all of the Seulgi joking than anything you said.

Not sure if it's been mentioned in this thread, but Momoland's "Boom Boom" has hit 50 million views, which is kinda insane. I can't remember the last time a "nugu" got so many views.

Congrats to Momoland! I'm looking foward to the next release. I listened to their mini a few days ago and thought it was pretty good.

See Wendy is still doing her black and white impressions. Jeez, you'd think she'd no better being from Canada. You don't see Jay Park, Eric Nam, Amber, Jessica, Tiffany, or Ailee doing this shit:

She imitated both white and black women. I dont think she meant offend anyone..
Probably not, but she did. It's like someone doing a Korean and Japanese person impression. She should know better.

She did the same thing 4 years ago. I hope this one gains enough traction to reach her.

Yuuuup. It's not like it's the worst thing ever, but it doesn't really have to be either. I second hoping that she hears all of this and learns from it.

Polaris clearly gearing up to provide future Sojung/Ladies' Code releases with some of that sweet Loona marketing budget.


소정(LADIES' CODE/SOJUNG) "Stay Here" OFFICIAL TEASER





I vaguely recall liking a Stay Kids song. After whatever this video is the next comeback better be good.


Stray Kids(스트레이 키즈) "I am NOT" Trailer





She imitated both white and black women. I dont think she meant offend anyone..
What Wendy (once again) did isn't exactly the most egregious misstep, but that isn't the point.

Essentially every country on this planet has groups that are marginalised based on: gender; race; religion; sexuality; ethnicity; socioeconomic strata and so on.

If you live in a country where your group(s) is/are disparaged while your words and acts also further contribute to the marginalisation of another group, you need to take a look at yourself.


People simply have to educate themselves and do better.


Ultimately, it's further scientific proof Seulgi is best.

Oh My Girl planning an April Comeback?
WM Entertainment, "OH MY GIRL will be coming back in April. But the exact date has not yet been decided. They are work hard on preparing. So please look forward to it."

This comeback will come just 3 months from their recent comeback made in January with "비밀정원 (Secret Garden)" that was a public favourite. They have also been recently built a "fairy-dol" image.

With their recent albums, the group has been able to showcase their own colours through both unique and refreshing concepts.

Recently, just yesterday on the 4th, a member from OH MY GIRL had appeared on MBC's King of Masked Singer who was able to showcase her amazing vocal talents.
https://www.reddit.com/r/kpop/comments/823w57/oh_my_girl_plans_to_make_comeback_in_april/

If anyone likes Yooa's voice like I do she was on King of Masked Singer as well:




Can watch the segment with English subs here @56 minutes.

It won't reach her, and I think you are expecting too much from people who are, by and large, idiots. Every so often you see an idol make the mistake of using the n word or black face, and they never learn because there is no backlash, not even mild backlash. You will see people complain online, and their response will always boil down to "who gives a shit?".

Its hiding behind a cultural disconnect. Many people think that if you are not in the United States you are free to use the n word, make fun of black people, etc. Its mostly irritating because there are no people in this world with a bigger inferiority complex than Koreans.

Yeah, it's crazy, they jumped on TMZ for making racist impressions of EXID, but you can still see blackface on TV.

I never felt second hand embarrassment for anyone in my life, because I find it condescending and patronizing, but when it was announced that KARD was going to be on a Brazilian TV show I felt second hand embarrassment before and after. I knew it was going to be a dumpster fire and it was a dumpster fire lol

I don't remember it gaining much traction in Korea, I'm guessing it was due to KARD being nugus (I don't think they had officially debuted yet when they came here). Anyone with second hand knowledge of Brazilian racism knew something racist was going to be tossed around at one point or another during the show lol

When MAMAMOO did that blackface VTR of Uptown Funk last year it gained enough traction that both they and their company apologized for it. SM seems to care enough about international fans that they continually find members from western markets so that they speak fluent English. Now whether they do come out and say something or just hope it blows over is another issue.

Also, I just did a Youtube search to find this video and Youtube has its standard fill in feature. The top one for Wendy is "Red Velvet Wendy Racist". When you're trying to appeal to international fans, it's safe to say that's not a good look.

I remember that, think they also kept asking if the members were dating. It was painful lol
I hope they are dating, though :D

Didn't somebody post some awards with his Paradise being chosen as Rap title of the year? Been relistening to White Light Panorama the last couple days and don't know how I could have ignored him in the Top 100 '17 list.
