Ashe: why do the little girls get miss a

Madeline: ok, that is cute.

8:03 AM mad skills, boys… maddskills

Ashe: as if these kids don’t want to be idols enough already

Madeline: lol. I’m just waiting to see a kid I know…

these ones have it easiest…

8:04 AM Ashe: aw that girl is lucky she got a solo

Madeline: OMO

8:05 AM and our hosts are… speaking English!

Ashe: i know i was like, why was i understanding this?

Madeline: Heechul, JeongHwa, JoKwon, and who’s the girl?

OOH! I like Heechul’s short haircut

8:06 AM Ashe: i didn’t recognize him

Madeline: waves back

Ashe: ok lol calm

Madeline: lol

8:07 AM wait, who is this?

Ashe: that’s what i was about to ask

8:08 AM Madeline: ohhhhh

them

Z:EA

8:10 AM the dance break’s okay, but do they really need backup dancers?? aaand the back-ups are Teen Top

Ashe: that’s who that was

Madeline: I was wondering why they were miked

8:13 AM Madeline: I think I like these combi stages…

Subashiny: It’s too early to tell for me

Ashe: yeah that is at least the most entertaining part

8:14 AM but I’m not getting the jail theme

Subashiny: Neither am I

Madeline: and  isn’t Miss A at a disadvantage… oh, now they’re out of the cage

Subashiny: I’m not sure how it fits into the music factory thing

Ashe: sistar has an obsession with poles apparently

Subashiny: bwahahaahaha

Isn’t that their new concept?

You know when miss A first debuted with Love Again

Madeline: lol

Subashiny: I thought Jia was so pretty

Ashe: what color was her hair

8:15 AM Subashiny: It was like a normal dark

Ashe: i kinda miss the pink

Subashiny: But then came the pink

And now this blond

Madeline: yeah, it doesn’t do much for her looks

Subashiny: Not to mention that 2pm  ponytail she has going on

Madeline: but it sure makes her stand out…

true dat

8:16 AM Ashe: aww i think it fits her in a “fifth element way”

Subashiny: But it’s like Amber’s hair cut

Ashe: i think i dated myself with that reference

Subashiny: Yeah it makes her different but it doesn’t do much for her face

Madeline: I agree

Subashiny: I’m a film major

Subashiny: So I’ve seen the fifth element

Can’t say I like Bruce Willis too much tho

Woah

That was interesting

Ashe: ugh i can’t get into sistar at ALL

Subashiny: Neither can I

8:18 AM Are they really that tall?

Madeline: I liked Shady Girl

Ashe: though hyorim has a good voice

Madeline: and I used to like that they wore more clothes than most of the other girl groups…

but this concept doesn’t help that…

8:19 AM Ashe: well “push push” did start off with the short shorts

Madeline: but not all of them wore short shorts

dadgum. he looks masculine!

8:20 AM Ashe: yeah was it hyorim i think she usually wore pants

lol

heech is growing up

that’s what a good haircut will do

8:21 AM Madeline: hmm,,, dark fairy tale?

Subashiny: This song is so disturbing

Especially the music video

Madeline: ahh… I see those costumes under the capes!

Ashe: watching orange caramel makes me feel like I’m on a lsd trip

Madeline: you won’t fool me, Orange Caramel!!

Ashe: haha

8:22 AM Subashiny: They hide behind these child like concepts

But if you caught the last couple seconds of the MV for A-ing

Ashe: well spotted madeline lol

Subashiny: Is that little girl allowed to wear that?

Madeline: well, they’re not that old… but yeah, this stuff is really underage… and they aren’t…

8:23 AM Ashe: yeah i keep wondering if they’re complicit in the concept

Subashiny: It’s not even them but what they’re invoking

Madeline: or if it’s forced on them?

Subashiny: I’ve heard Raina is not a big fan of the whole Orange Caramel concept

Ashe: like are they are they in on the joke

8:24 AM yeah  Raina has a good voice if i were her i’d be ticked too

Madeline: whoa. someone’s skirt was def stuck…

where are these chaps?

Subashiny: Yeah especially when she’s in her young 20s and she’s singing like she’s at Disney

Madeline: ahhhh  Norazo

8:25 AM Ashe: ahhhhh they are my boys

Madeline: with GD backstage?

I hope they play Curry…

Subashiny: No I just think it was the back of his head

Ashe: it’s like they were transported from a whole other show

8:26 AM Subashiny: Yeah really

Ashe: to go from magic girl to this

i got whiplash

Madeline: LOL like the Willy Wonka New Year’s Extravaganza

8:27 AM Ashe: even their mainstream  songs are weird as hell

Subashiny: You know curry comes from the tamil word kare which means burned

Ashe: but awesome

Madeline: awww. it’s my other boys!

8:28 AM Ashe: ah i learned something today

Subashiny: funny how that’s applied to food

Ashe: subi you are the scholar of this group clearly

Madeline: I’m glad they’re doing this one!!

Subashiny: I speak tamil so I have to represent every chance I get!

Ashe: hah this is the only ukiss song i know

8:29 AM Subashiny: Sorry, not a big fan of U-Kiss

Madeline: probably easiest-but-cool-looking-dance ever (MMHN)

Ashe: i don’t like how all the boy groups are matchy-matchy

8:30 AM i mean similar hair and everything

Madeline: awww! My Kevin!

Ashe: which doesn’t help when you have eleventy members in the group

Madeline: oooh, Homme!

Subashiny: Oh Dongho, isn’t today a school night?

Madeline: nope, it’s school break over here!

finally…

8:31 AM Subashiny: I remember when Changmin was complaining about how ugly he was on SGB

And now look at that bod

8:32 AM Madeline: lol. not shallow, or anything, are we?

Subashiny: If men have been objectifying women for, like, I don’t know, since the beginning of mankind

8:33 AM I think it’s about time we turned the tables

Madeline: I love this song…

Subashiny: And Kpop, what a great place to do it in

Madeline: lol.

Subashiny: Is it me or are these MCs a little dry?

Profesional but dry?

Madeline: TOP is like’don’t look at the camera’

8:34 AM Subashiny: He’s trying not to steal the limelight

But fails

I think he’s a bit afraid of Heechul

Madeline: LOL

Subashiny: I would be too

Ashe: top, when we get married, you will NOT have that hair

Subashiny: NOOOOOO

Madeline: lol

Subashiny: HES MINEEEEEE

8:35 AM Madeline: just stay OFF my SIWON!!!

Subashiny: You can have that Edward Cullen wannabe

Madeline: pssht. he’s much cooler than E.C.

Ashe: subi it’s gonna be a threeway fight cause nia’s made claims

8:36 AM Subashiny: BUT MY RELIGION ON FACEBOOK IS CHURCH OF T.O.P.

Madeline: and we hold the same beliefs, unlike me and EC

yes! I’m safe!!

Subashiny: I’m sure vampirism complicates the whole notion of faith

Madeline: this is a cute concept!

Madeline: except for that Willy Wonka music

Subashiny: Secret is a talented rookie group

I hope they do more

8:37 AM

Subashiny: With expanding their musical style

Johnelle: Yay Secret! Just made it!

Ashe: i think they’re underrated

haha in time for the good stuff

Johnelle: saw Homme too, such a great song…. if only the MV didn’t give people the wrong ideas. lol.

8:39 AM Madeline: this takes me back to summer…

oooh, breakdancing!

Johnelle: I like Secret too, they have a little extra sass to them and can shake it.

Ashe: zinger looks like she’s put on weight and she looks nice

8:40 AM Subashiny: And they’re women who fit their niche

Madeline: F(x)

Subashiny: Really? I think she’s lost

Ashe: her chin isn’t boa sharp

Madeline: sans Amber

Johnelle: I think if Madonna wasn’t so similiar to Mazzic, the song and the dancing would’ve been better

Ashe: that is the question of the year

where’s amber

Subashiny: This is so not f(x) however

8:41 AM Ashe: and the next [year]

Johnelle: where’s Amber?

love Khuntoria

Subashiny: Resting her “weak ankle”

yeah….okay

8:42 AM Ashe: i’m gonna keep bringing it up on SB i don’t care what sm says

Johnelle: Nu Abo was actually a great song … awww Luna’s doing the rap

Subashiny: And of course they give the extra lines to Luna

Why is Sulli letting the backing track do all the work?

Ashe: if i was in LA this would call for some investigative journalism

Johnelle: If she isn’t coming back SME should just say so and stop messing with us, pisses me off

8:43 AM Madeline: for realz.

Subashiny: You know, this is a stretch, but a friend suggested she could be pregnant

As ridiculous as that is

Madeline: it’s always possible…

Johnelle: hmmm… I saw that in our comments on a post- really though? I saw that video of her at the dance school and she didn’t look it- don’t know how long ago that was though

Subashiny: I think Narsha and Tim Burton should get together

Madeline: mmhmm

Johnelle: oooh I like how it’s just bam, bam, bam with the performances

8:45 AM Subashiny: Whoever the PD is for this show is doing a really good job

Ashe: i think he if he knew about her he would build an entire movie around her

Johnelle: the transitions are kind of fast, but I ain’t complaining. no useless filler

Ashe: starring johnny depp of course

Subashiny: She does remind me vaguely of Helena [Bonham-Carter]

Johnelle: wtf is Narsha wearing?

Madeline: the crew must be totally on top of things, too, to keep these stages going

8:46 AM Johnelle: ack?

Madeline: I think it’s linked to the marionette concept… but it’s still not enough of a link to forgive it…

Madeline: whoa! English!

which musical is this from???

Madeline: ah! Hairspray

8:48 AM 4Minute and MBLAQ

interesting combo…

what have they done with my dear Joon’s hair???

8:49 AM

Madeline: oh, that’s Thunder

but it’s still awful

Ashe: the john waters version of hairspray will always be the best

Johnelle: You can’t stop the motion of the ocean….

8:50 AM Madeline: whoa! insta white… mindblown

Ashe: YYYYYY

Johnelle: Yup, the original Hairspray was my favorite

Madeline: I meant the hair… not the version of hairspray…

*performance

Ashe: Mblaq always gets the short end of the stick

Johnelle: I really don’t like guys with fur collars

8:51 AM Ashe: lol

Johnelle: and too much eye make-up

Ashe: compared to what some of these guys are wearing…

8:52 AM Johnelle: thank the Kpop gods, G.O. got rid of his ridic mustache

Ashe: aww i liked the mustache after a while

Madeline: Joon looks good! (minus some eye make-up…) you show those arms, baby!

Johnelle: lol, guns…

Ashe: Gave G.O. character….

Madeline: yeah, I hated the moustache, too… but he needs to shave tonight …

8:53 AM anyone gonna hate me if I say I want one of those coats?

Johnelle: 4Minute! huh?

8:54 AM Subashiny: Remember when this song was being used as a tactic against North Korea?

Ashe: i really hope no one trips on those coat things

Johnelle: whoa, they went all Matrix

Ashe: looks like a health hazard

Madeline: ohhh, yeah, I remember that

8:55 AM but I still want one… they’re still a good foot off the ground

except I want my coat to stay together a little longer in the back…

8:57 AM Johnelle: Ah, Kwon… I hate when he slicks back his hair

Madeline: maaan… trot… not a huge fan…

Ashe: obligatory trot

8:58 AM Johnelle: and I think that Hwang Jung-eum made some kind of deal with the devil to look so good and be so successful this year

Johnelle: you gotta give the guy some credit for wearing a maroon studded suit

8:59 AM Madeline: LOL

SHINee doing trot!!!

Johnelle: Onew!

Subashiny: THEY WOULD

I’m surprised Jonghyun didn’t take this one

Madeline: SO FUNNY!!!!

9:00 AM Ok, I hate this song… I would be watching the music shows and  it would always sound like the song was almost over… and then it would go for another round

9:01 AM BEAST doing trot!

Ashe: hehe

Madeline: and KiKwang holding his mic like a girl

9:02 AM Johnelle: Yosoeb

Subashiny: Classy, pinky out and everything

Madeline: I love Yoseobie…

Johnelle: omg did you guys see what they did to Minho when they just scanned the crowd

Subashiny: And he looked like Lucifer?

Johnelle: OMG the glitter

Subashiny: Yeah, ironic

Ashe: the red shirts are hurting my eyes

Johnelle: some of the stylists noonas need to be fired

9:03 AM

Johnelle: hey it looks like home

ole ole

9:04 AM Madeline: I like the Ole bit well enough

lol. love Beast

9:05 AM Johnelle: what’s up with the dancing? they look like ahjusshis

they could have sprung for a little better costumes for her back up dancers

Ashe: i hope they don’t freestyle like that at the club

Madeline: Homme doing trot? not a good idea…

Johnelle: Changmin drop the wrist…. wrong ideas again

9:06 AM Ashe: lol

this song is really not helping

Johnelle: their facial expressions too

isn’t that Eru’s dad

Ashe: i think so

9:07 AM tae jin ah?

my elementary hangul translation

Madeline: I think that’s what it said

Johnelle: yeah, that’s his name

9:08 AM Madeline: the one who allegedly paid a girl off to abort his son’s child??

Ashe: that’s the one

Johnelle: I don’t think Junsu is watching the Gayo, he just tweeted a pic of his cat lol

Madeline: spits toward the tv

9:09 AM lol at Junsu’s cat

Johnelle: the banana yellow pants are a bit much

Madeline: ohhh, yeah

Subashiny: I don’t like this spectrum

Does not match at all

Madeline: it does hurt the eyes

Ashe: this is weird, they’ve got the trot singers and then the kpop singers poking fun at the trot singers

9:10 AM Madeline: I rather like YeongHwa’s ruffle… it’s got a colonial feel

Subashiny: The cravat needs to get out of here

Last person to pull that off was the blond from scooby doo

And even then, not really

Madeline: I’ll take it!!!

9:11 AM Johnelle: he looks like he walked out from the movie Dracula in that… love him though

Ashe: yes some real singing

Madeline: YES!!! Secret Garden OST!!!!

Ashe: davichi

Johnelle: Davichi! yessss.. such great voices

9:12 AM Madeline: or… not quite?

nope… not… my bad

but I do like this song

Ashe: those dancers are so unnecessary

Madeline: mmhmmm

but hey, they’re having a good time

9:13 AM   IU!

Johnelle: Yeah, I totally think you don’t always need back up dancers

Ashe: what the frick disney is going to sue

9:14 AM Johnelle: IU

Subashiny: You know, people give IU so much praise for her vocals

Ashe: IU is so cute I want kick her in the knee

Subashiny: But there are so many people in kpop that can out-sing her in a coma

Ashe: but she’s so cute!!!!!

9:15 AM Madeline: I like her…

Subashiny: I suppose…

Ashe: rarely do you get that in one whole package

slight sarcasm there lol

Subashiny: She’s so talented she can sing without the backing track and everything

Madeline: ooooh! Insomnia!!!

9:16 AM yay!

love this song…

Subashiny: Wheesung got me into kpop

When he was still with YG

He’s a  genuinely talented vocalist

He just needs to chill out with his end notes and stop using vibrato to support himself

Ashe: i think he tried a foray into the US

Subashiny: Did he?

9:17 AM I didn’t notice…

Ashe: yeah i remember reading about it but i don’t think anything materialized

Madeline: whoa. Davichi and IU backing Wheesung

Ashe: ok IU is out of place

Subashiny: oh no…

Johnelle: Not a big fan of  Wheesung ducks but he has a great voice

9:18 AM Subashiny: clip your hands guys

clips

Johnelle: maybe I don’t like him because he wrote A~ing

Subashiny: Yeah, that was dumb

Subashiny: BUT HE ALSO WROTE HEY.MR BIG

Someone take her off stage

Johnelle: weird collab

Subashiny: She’s bothering me

9:19 AM Is this the maknae special stage?

Johnelle: some of the idols are tweeting from the show so far I saw Eunjung and Zinger tweet- don’t they take their phones away or something

Ashe: lifestyles of the rich and overworked

Subashiny: AWWWW

Johnelle: ah  maknaes yeah

Subashiny: Taeminnie

9:20 AM Ashe: me thinks some  peeps are lipsyncing

9:21 AM Madeline: whoa. they’re so obviously not singing

Subashiny: I know I shouldn’t do this

But their accents are making me laugh

Seohyun’s so brave

Johnelle: I’m  like yur rrringleadurrr

Madeline: lol

Ashe: snsd member gets special entrance of course

9:22 AM Johnelle: Oh of course, you know SME is the most powerful and influential company in Kpop

Madeline: I think Taemin’s makeup was a little too dark… he was looking kinda Michael Jackson

Johnelle: oooh Tiger JK, supreme Team – LOVE Simon D

9:24 AM Madeline: music makes me high, too

Ashe: wish Tasha were here too

Johnelle: you never know she always pops in every once in a while

Subashiny: They need to stop showing Jooyeon’s dead pan face on camera

9:28 AM Johnelle: Supreme Team is really kickin’ it up these days

Ashe:  ahaha Hara clapping and smiling so cutely to hip-hop

9:30 AM Johnelle: that might be better than SHINee trying to act gangsta

Madeline: commercial break, say whut

Johnelle: wtf they cut them short

Ashe: ahhh always cutting off the hip hop

Johnelle: oh HoMin

9:31 AM Ashe: love me some korean commercials

Madeline: do they usually. have TV commercials for album releases?

9:32 AM ’cause there was totally a commercial for DBSK’s new album

Johnelle: not sure but that LG U+ CF was pretty funny

Ashe: really?!? missed the DBSK thing

Madeline: I liked the coke one

the DBSK one was right after the commercial break

9:33 AM Ashe: what a clusterf**k that’s going to be

Madeline: didja catch TOP in the Optimus Mach commercial?

Madeline: can I call dibs on doing an article for TOP’s CF?

Ashe: grumbles go ahead

Madeline: yesss!!!

Johnelle: didn’t it come out a while back? You’ll probably have to fight Ashe and Nia over it

9:36 AM Ashe: i gave my blessing

now  nia…..

Madeline: ^_^

Johnelle: Ashe? must be the Christmas spirit..

9:37 AM Ashe: my heart grew a size today

-grew Madeline: hooray for Christmas!

Johnelle: I did notice TOP sitting behind of SHINee earlier and I was thinking in what world would TOP be sitting behind of SHINee

and then I thought , Oh a SME world

9:38 AM Ashe: and what would he be thinking

Subashiny: I think he was sitting behind junho from 2pm

Johnelle: oh a JYPE world then?

9:39 AM Subashiny: Height order maybe?

Madeline: aaand it’s back!

Johnelle: Jae Suk!

Madeline: lol, Subi

Johnelle: rofl, height, good one Subi

9:40 AM whoa I thought the CFs were over

Ashe: well gotta make up for the rest of the show i guess

Madeline: yeah, it was a fake-out… that happened at the beginning, too…

9:41 AM Ashe: korean commercials are so…comforting though

like they could lull me to sleep

Madeline: that yo-ha-im stuff is good, no lie

esp the peach one

9:42 AM Ashe: ha at kpopflash the streamer is playing minesweeper during the commericials

9:43 AM Johnelle: Siwon just tweeted “Don’t call us slaves. All we want to do is to be a good pop culture icon !” I wonder if he just saw the MTV show.

Madeline: aww… oppa is a good pop culture icon

Ashe: ohh, mtv gave a negative portrayal of them?

9:44 AM but…SME is not helping in that department

Johnelle: I think they talked a lot about “slave contracts” read about it- must watch it

9:45 AM Madeline: I don’t think they said that much about ‘slave contracts’….

it’s back!!!

round two, go!

9:46 AM Ashe: love that hot air balloon graphic

Johnelle: After School

I wonder if Bekah left Hawaii

Ashe: hmm when you think about it, ‘music factory’ is quite appropriate for a kpop show

9:47 AM Johnelle: Bang was pretty cool and the fact that they all learned how to play a snare drum and went all drum line

Madeline: I wonder what the audience did during the commercial break…

9:50 AM Ashe: nooooo i want queen

Madeline: agree

Johnelle: did anyone like Dambi’s new stuff?

Subashiny: Nope

Ashe: only queen

Subashiny: I don’t Dam Bi is talented

9:51 AM Ashe: and even then grudgingly

Subashiny: She can barely sing into a mic

Ashe: wasn’t she called a female Rain at one point?

Subashiny: I know she’s called a dancing queen

Even though, she’s nothing special in that area

9:52 AM Ashe: she’s definitely not better than say, BoA

Yaaay [queen]

9:53 AM Subashiny: hail naw

Or Hyori

Ashe: lol

9:54 AM music factory, where we churn out idols at the rate of one group a minute

Madeline: Yay! FT Island  mention!!!

9:55 AM ok, random pairing….

who is REI?

Johnelle: That’s exactly what I was thinking

Ashe: i wonder if the show had the decency to let them play their instruments

9:56 AM Madeline: Whoa, is SeungHyun doing a colonial ‘do?

yep, that baby pony in the back totally sets him up for a 1776 thing…

9:57 AM Johnelle: Love Love Love Hongki

Madeline: He’s mine!! (I’ll relinquish my dibs after I secure SiWon)

9:58 AM do not love HongKi’s hair…

Subashiny: I like this song

Madeline: LOL

10:02 AM LOLOLOLOL

Subashiny: I wish it just wasn’t so OFFENSIVE

I want to forward the MV to an American tribe

Ashe: why don’t the girls ever get to do guy songs?

Subashiny: And have them sue

Because it’s not as funny

Ashe: like indian boy

10:03 AM Subashiny: Oh that’ another one

But MC Mong had  his comeuppance

Johnelle: That T-ara song was Bad – why would Beast do it, ugh

Subashiny: T-ara needs more vocal stamina

Ashe: t-ara always seem so blank on stage

Subashiny: And stop letting the backing track do all the work

10:04 AM Madeline: oooh, dance break!

I need to learn this one

10:05 AM me: oh i saw you

cameraman

Madeline: me, too!

Madeline: LOVE this song!!!!!!

10:06 AM uh, oh…sound wasn’t goin’ right…

Ashe: i like the combined stages but i don’t think these guys had enough practice

10:07 AM Johnelle: Yeah, I liked this song so cute. Hmmm T-ara match well as back up dancers…

Ashe: backhanded compliment?

Madeline: get ready for haters picking on the T-ara members dancing with their favorites…

Johnelle: naw sarcastic dig

10:08 AM Subashiny: DARK KNIGHT SOUNDTRACK

LOVE ITTTTTTT

Ashe: SERIOUSLY

Subashiny: THIS IS GENIUS

Johnelle: oooh  minho chained up!

Subashiny: I WANT THAT FOR MY BIRTHDAY

Madeline: why is Jonghyun the only one in a cage?

Subashiny: Because he can’t dance

10:09 AM Madeline: lol

Ashe: he’s being punished for dating like a normal human being

Madeline: LOL!!!!

Subashiny: One thing I really like/respect about SHINee if their tremendous amount of talent

10:10 AM They function beyond the backing track

And their dancing…wow

As a dancer, I envy

Hardcore

10:11 AM Madeline: whuh-oh, more mic troubles…

Ashe: just when we were giving props to the PDs

Subashiny: WHY????????????

10:12 AM Ashe: LUNA WTF

Johnelle: SHINee> Lucifer…. Luna! SM hijinx

Subashiny: I like her

But really

Johnelle: Victoria!

10:13 AM Subashiny: All the GD TOP signs during a SHINee performance

10:14 AM

Madeline: oooh, who’s mystery???

Johnelle: CN Blue! Whooooooooo

Madeline: I like this mix…

Ashe: it better be someone good

Madeline: I know one of the sax dudes!!

10:15 AM Ashe: sax improves everything

Madeline: well… he goes to my church…

Johnelle: uh what just happened

Ashe: madeline if i knew what you looked like…

Madeline: (some of my friends clued me in)

Ashe: voodoo doll

Madeline: LOL

I suppose I’d better protect my image…

10:16 AM Johnelle: Ashe what happened to the big heart

Madeline: you’re always welcome to come to my church with me!

Subashiny: Wait, so they got a sax player from Canada?

Ashe: i told you it grew but not by how much

Madeline: No, I live in Korea…

Johnelle: CN Blue and DJ KOO

10:17 AM Madeline: and the sax player is from my Korean church

who is DJ KOO?

Johnelle: mean  remix

the DJ dude

10:19 AM Ashe: uhoh

Johnelle: 2NE1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Subashiny: I hated “Go Away” until I heard aliks’ remix

Ashe: you know 2ne1 almost asploded our site

Johnelle: hated it until the live performances

I still say that the MV was bad

Madeline: this is a pretty good remix, I think

10:20 AM Subashiny: I thought the concept was random

Ashe: CL’s voice has gotten way too nasally for me

Subashiny: But I thought it was pretty gutsy

To have him hit her

10:21 AM Madeline: oooh, she fake beat him up

Ashe: i guess that was to make up for the video

10:22 AM  Subashiny: They need to stop putting so much eye liner on Bom

she looks like she’s sleeping

Johnelle: were the fur things popular before Go Jun Pyo and BOF?

10:23 AM Subashiny: Does anyone know how long this is supposed to be?

Madeline: who’s on the piano?

Ashe: minzy you are too good

Subashiny: She really is

Subashiny: She’s the youngest but the best performer

10:24 AM And the most talented

Johnelle: minzy is my fave , I like her voice best too

10:25 AM Ashe: lol that one line dara gets

Madeline: hmmm… Dara’s hair… I like it…

Subashiny: The guy does a turn on the apa’s

That I like

Madeline: the loose braids look cool

Subashiny: I don’t like the apa’s on the actual track

10:26 AM Johnelle: At first his voice grated, but it actually matches

Ashe: what

Madeline: kekeke random DongHo and Kevin

10:27 AM Subashiny: I’m going to brush my teeth and nom on something

brb

Madeline: LOVE this song!!!

of course, I know it from Elvis…

Johnelle: hmmm they keep trying the reggae thing

10:28 AM Ashe: yeah as long as dara’s there i’m not buying it

Madeline: Dara looks like she’s really enjoying herself

10:31 AM Johnelle: Who is this dude? By the way everyone got up and started dancing, I’m guessing we should know?

Ashe: yeah that’s what i was thinking

10:32 AM Madeline: yeah

Ashe: time for some research before i get bitched out by a reader

10:33 AM Madeline: lol

Ashe: did anyone say how long this is supposed to be?

dang it’s long

10:34 AM Madeline: Kim Geun Mo

Ashe: this is the “cutest” i’ve ever seen 2ne1 act

Johnelle: I like it

10:36 AM Madeline: lol at Beast dancing along

Subashiny: JYP and SM should feel intimidated

10:37 AM Madeline: yeah, that is def short hair on Dara

Ashe: to be fair jyp had a pretty good year

Ashe: depressing music

10:38 AM time for 2am

Madeline: oooh, answer the phone, already!!

Johnelle: 2AM, aww come on Ashe they had a great year

Ashe: i know but damn can they never be happy?

Madeline: they did. and I’ve secured all their albums, I think…s

Johnelle: everyone needs some depressing music sometiime

Madeline: lol

10:39 AM Subashiny: To back Ashe up, they’re ALWAYS depressing

Johnelle: JYP needs to give them happier songs

Madeline: I love JinWoon… he’s one of my noona crushes

Subashiny: JYP needs to start producing their songs

Madeline: hmmmm… I wonder how you would do a happy ballad…

Ashe: once jyp latches onto something that works he will run it into the ground

Subashiny: I feel like he neglects them

10:40 AM

Johnelle: yup, they had to fight to get popular and the 2PM fiasco probably helped

Madeline: I like the background picture

Subashiny: The screen is a genius idea

Instead of building different sets

Ashe: barren trees, stormy clouds, dark castles

Johnelle: baek ji young

10:41 AM Madeline: I wonder if their puppeteers are trainees…

Subashiny: They can just throw on a new back drop

Madeline: or just dancers…

Ashe: where are 2AM’s sunshine and palm trees

10:42 AM Madeline: lol,

Subashiny: I don’t want to distract

Johnelle: it’s a depressing song, hellooo

Subashiny: BUT TVXQS COMEBACK TEASER HAS BEEN RELEASEDDDDDDDDDDD

Johnelle: sunshine and palm  trees are happy times

Ashe: oh finally kinda happy 2am

10:48 AM

Subashiny: Didn’t Nicole spend time in the states?

Why is she speaking Engrish?

Ashe: oh it’s KARA!

10:49 AM Ashe: I like them but I can’t stand their voices

Johnelle: KARA- their dances are addictive

Subashiny: Their voices sound the same

High and slightly screechy

Johnelle: I think Nicole looked better before. I felt like clobbering Key when I heard he told her to lose weight

Subashiny: Key is pretty skinny himself

Subashiny: He probably felt his masculinity was threatened

10:53 AM

Subashiny: But instead of gaining some weight himself

He WOULD tell her to lose

Subashiny: SNSD please kick KARA’s ass

10:54 AM Johnelle: Yeah, my least favorite of KARA’s newer stuff

Ashe: its like the lesser of two evils really

Madeline: lol, amen

Subashiny: HYOYEON!

10:55 AM Madeline: they’re so going to throw off those white capes…

Ashe: booty shorts and tight tops

Madeline: mmhmm, something like that

Johnelle: Does this remind anyone else of like that “girl of all Seasons” from Grease 2

must be the clothes

Ashe: yeah! kinda

10:56 AM i can totally see snsd doing something like that unironically

Johnelle: so far I would say they are not kicking KARA’s butt

Subashiny: Minho is not a good replacement for Siwon

Madeline: kaaaahhh. were is my SiWon!!!?????

Madeline: I wonder why the gun was wrapped up?

10:57 AM Subashiny: Safety reasons

Ashe: standards and practices

Madeline: and a fake gun?

Johnelle: Minho and Yuri fact or crap?

Subashiny: CRAP

He’s a baby

Johnelle: he’s only two? years younger

10:58 AM Subashiny: But he’s so innocent

Madeline: my Kindergarten kids were singing this today…

Subashiny: She went on a date with Taeyang, remember?

From Taeyang to Minho?

I don’t think so

Imagine Han Byul going from Seven to Seungri?

Johnelle: I hate what they did to Sunny’s hair

Ashe: whoa that’s a drop

Madeline: yeah, it’s pretty bad… but so is HyoYeon’s…

10:59 AM Subashiny: They’re always sloppy with Hyoyeon

Johnelle: but hyoyeon’s was always effed- the stylist noonas hate her

11:00 AM Ashe: fans, this is why we can’t have nice things

Madeline: lol at this arriving/running thru the airport…

11:01 AM  Subashiny: This is like something from WWE

Madeline: not like they weren’t already spotted in the audience…

lol, Subi, so true

Johnelle: 2PM will rock you!? lol

Ashe: we are rebels

we are BEASTS

11:02 AM Subashiny: You know the hottest time of day is actually 3 pm?

Johnelle: ooooh bad remix

Madeline: LOL

Johnelle: lol

Madeline: but at least very little running man so far

Johnelle: don’t try saying that to Hottest

Ashe: i kinda feel 2pm  are almost becoming a parody of themselves

Subashiny: If Taecyeon  rips his shirt off one more time…

Madeline: what is up with the flag twirlers on the sides????

11:03 AM Ashe: flag twirling is rock and roll?

11:04 AM Subashiny: Can this end?

Ashe: oh and don’t forget BEASTLY

Madeline: cool dance break, at least…

Ashe: have no idea what’s going on

Madeline: insanity, that is all…

11:05 AM Johnelle: this is bad…

Madeline: those flags need to be burned and never seen/heard from again

Subashiny: I can’t stand JYP

Not as a company

Or a producer

But as everything else

11:06 AM Madeline: this is a really retarded dance…

Ashe: damn, he just can’t help himself

Johnelle: oh my, JYP really needs to get over himself. I appreciate him as a producer and all, but he is toooo much sometimes

Subashiny: The old man needs to go home and eat his apple sauce

Madeline: and the fact that it looks like he’s wearing knickers….

11:07 AM Subashiny: DROP HIM!!!

Johnelle: someone should just yank that rope right off the stage

Ashe: what’s with the air acrobatics

he had wonder girls up in the air too

Johnelle: he probably thinks its sexaaay

11:08 AM Ashe: are we doing something? finally

Madeline: he probably cut a deal – okay, we put my song toward the end, and I’ll let all my groups appear in Gayo Daejeon, mmkay?

Johnelle: I do have to admit, that when he performed with the Wonder Girls here in Hawaii he was really good

11:10 AM Subashiny: I don’t care what anyone says

I love “High High”

Their rapping kills

Madeline: still more??

Johnelle: it’s growing on me, but I’m such a Big Bang pushover

Madeline: but I love this song

Ashe: aww top i almost don’t want to see you

Subashiny: BLASPHEMY!

Johnelle: I love Se7en

11:11 AM Ashe: the hair makes me cry

Subashiny: I wear my sunglasses at night

Johnelle: this song was on serious replay for a month

Ashe: hey remember when he did that english song with lil kim

Subashiny: We may but i don’t think anybody else does

11:12 AM I wonder what she thought of him

Ashe: and he had glasses on the ENTIRE video

Madeline: lol

Johnelle: bad Ashe, don’t ruin this for me, lol.

Ashe: just saying

11:13 AM it was like they were trying to fool people into thinking he wasn’t Korean

Subashiny: YESYESYESYESYES

Ashe: at least it’s….

shorter

11:14 AM Johnelle: Ashe, how could you have not wanted to see this

Madeline: yeah… I can’t stand TOP’s hair… it’s way too ridiculous

Ashe: look when you have a huge ink blot on a beautiful painting do you want to look at it?

Subashiny: He pulls it off

Johnelle: YES

Madeline: esp when paired w/ the harry potter glasses

Subashiny: In a way that not many can

11:15 AM GDRAGON LOOKS RIDICULOUS

Literally

Madeline: mmmhmmm

Ashe: as always

Subashiny: Is this  the “Tipsy” instrumental?

Ashe: I’ve learned to accept

it

but he’s starting to spread his taint to top and that ain’t cool

11:16 AM Subashiny: I kind of like the white hair

It makes him look angelic

And his devilish smirk and eyes contrast nicely

Madeline: GD looks like a weird homeless guy who raided a SalVal for a party outfit…

11:18 AM

Johnelle: love that like ninja part

Madeline: LOL that ghetto electro part totally cracks me up

Subashiny: G Dragon is like a little gremlin

Running around the stage like he’s had a whole lot of 4Loko

11:20 AM Madeline: esp after watching the eatyourkimchi bit about it

Ashe: but you know VIPs still think he’s sooo sexaaay

11:21 AM Subashiny: Oh of course

You know, I think that’s unfair

Because I am a DIE HARD Cassiopeia

But I will still admit that I wouldn’t touch Xiah with a ten foot pole

Ashe: every time i see Bom i think of that lettuce leaf

Johnelle: not the corn?

Ashe: lol ok that too

11:22 AM it’s like she looks good, but what did they make her do to get those legs

Madeline: YESSSSS

YESSSS

YESSS

Ashe: super junior are pod people i knew it!

Madeline: My boys!!!!!!!

Subashiny: Aren’t they missing like 5 million members?

11:23 AM Ashe: LOL air punches

Madeline: I love how they shot this at a mall after it was closed

Ashe: they want to be in an action film so bad

Madeline: where is my SiWon???

Ashe: i don’t know this song but it’s better than Bonamana

Madeline: there he is!!!!!

Ashe: spoke too soon

11:26 AM Madeline: wearing a bathrobe???

Madeline: harm the coordi-noonas!!!

11:27 AM SiWon, I will avenge you!!!

Ashe: i think super junior was the very first thing i learned about kpop before i even knew what it was

and it blew my mind

Madeline:  me too, Ashe, me too

11:28 AM me: it’s like,  do they even need all of them?!?

11:29 AM and is it only me or does heechul always look like he’s half-assing in these performances?

Madeline: well… I cut him slack – he does have a metal rod in one of his legs…

me: ahhh

Subashiny: Heechul kind of sucks at what he does

11:30 AM His true idol talent is his personality

Johnelle: at  least  he’s still there

Subashiny: But in everything else, he is kind of lacking

Madeline: wait, that’s it?????

Subashiny: True, very true

If I could be any idol, I would be BoA

Ashe: seriously i can’t help but respect her

11:31 AM she’s one of the few female idols that looks like she knows what she’s doing up there

Johnelle: I  know people love her, but I haven’t found any of her new stuff impressive at all

11:32 AM Madeline: that clown dance looks fun… and challenging!

Subashiny: They should have had the SM hoobaes be back up dancers

11:33 AM Ashe: yeah i’m not a huge fan of BoA’s music but she knows how to sell a song

11:34 AM ok i kinda liked this song

Subashiny: It grows on it if you listen to it more

Madeline: me, too

Johnelle: Man, what I wouldn’t give to be able to go to one of these- like 4 hours of pure Kpop awesomeness

Subashiny: And ignore the nonsensicalness of the phrase “hurricane venus”

11:35 AM Johnelle: yeah, I have to admit I loathed this song, and slowly but surely, now I only dislike it.

Ashe: i would love to go to one of these but I think i would fall asleep honestly

Johnelle: lol

Subashiny: Not with TOP around

11:36 AM Ashe: well yeah you got me there

Johnelle: with all the screaming going on?

Ashe: i can sleep anywhere

Subashiny: You’d be surprised

Madeline: I’d be worrying about how to get home…

Ashe: anywhere

Johnelle: Awww looks like Suju and BoA closed the show

A few seconds later…….

11:38 AM Subashiny: OH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Ashe: uh oh

Subashiny: YUNHO

Madeline: there it was again!!!

Subashiny: YUNHO

YUNHO

YUNHO

I swear, I’m okay

Ashe: crap is going down

Johnelle: Man, I don’t know about HoMin

11:40 AM Johnelle:

Yup, thanks for joing all- so last words on overall impression of the show best performance?

Ashe: well it didn’t change my mind that 2010 was kind of mediocre for kpop

Johnelle: missed the first hour, but of the 3 hours i saw..it was entertaining

11:42 AM Ashe: i always like performances

but better songs people!

or more catchy songs

Johnelle: Didn’t think any of the performances were outstanding – best probably 2AM with Baek Ji-young and 2NE1 with that dude – oh and Se7en GDTOP just because.  Tiger JK and Supreme Team if it wasn’t cut off…

11:43 AM bye

Ashe: We out!
