Debuts and comebacks !

I know this isn't necessarily geared towards the whole Korean drama review aspect, but while dramas are continuing, I will post about this hallyu movement. Some debuts and comebacks that have recently occurred are: 
(some of the commentary below the artist name and song title may be a bit biased due to favoring the group/person a bit more as well as more knowledge about them... I'm sorry if you feel offended about how this may be perceived to you ..) 

1.  Hyuna : How's This 
- this is equivalent to most modern American music videos (drinking and racy outfits) but Hyuna is amazing so..... 

2. Oh My Girl ft Skull & HaHa : A-ing 
- this is a really cute music video with a definite beach feel 

3. IOI : Whatta Man 

- This is producer 101's final group's subgroup , this song is super catchy + rumor has it that kim chungha choreographed this song !! 

4. UP10TION : Tonight 

- This video and song is so bright, they're so cute !!1! 

5. Girls Generation :0805 

- This is to commemorate their anniversary ! Their vocals are amazing 

6. BTOB : Vacation 

- This was an unexpected comeback song !!! But their vocals are also amazing and match their style ! 

(there is no official release) 

7. Monsta X : Stuck 

- They're always so dynamic !! Their style is definitely different from other groups 

8. B.A.P. : That's My Jam 

- They're so vibrant and the song is good for bringing the mood up 

9. BlackPink (debut) : Boombayah & Whistle 

- They definitely are from YG Their music style is strong compared to most of the girlgroups that venture towards the more cute styles 

10. Jun. K : Young Forever & Think About You 

- He's definitely an amazing artist and it's such a relief that he finally can have a solo debut

Review: 

While scrolling through multiple Facebook posts, I found a little segment with YoungK in it. While watching it, I was quite enticed with how funny his part was. Thus, afterwards I decided to find the drama and watch it. It turned out that Tacyeon was in it and began watching this drama. First off, this is a new idea, something that I personally haven't watched. The difference between this drama and multiple other ones is that ...

ANOTHER HAPPY DAY

So, Subkulture has finally released that there will be an extended date for both NY and LA. (GOT7 FLY IN USA TOUR) However, this is raising questionability towards whether this is the right thing to do or not. Personally, as a fan who couldn't get tickets to the July 10th concert, I'm belated. However, it does bring up their health. Yes, their health is actually quite important and it's something that should be monitored at any given time. ((especially with JB and his spinal disk injury)) However, there are always two sides of the stories. With the massive amount of petitions being signed, the intention (for me to sign it) was to bring a larger venue or to simply change the organizer. (I did not intend for the idea of another concert date to be added) Many fans are accusing others for having bad intentions towards their idols, initially calling us, "bad fans." Many have said "If you like your idols that much, you wouldn't have done this to them." What I truly have to say about this is.... Sure, your opinions are all valid and the dates could have been added due to the petitions. BUT REMEMBER THIS IS SUBKULUTRE. SUBKULTURE DOES THIS TYPE OF THING. If you do recall, a similar scenario has happened to BTS with having greater mishaps which just ended in a big mess. Have you ever thought that Subkulture was intentionally adding these dates a week after... I mean Subkulture couldn't have planned this perfectly. Simply a week after the release dates for ticket buying, it just so happens that these additional dates are released. I mean petitions don't process to companies that quickly. I mean, big organizers like Subkulture would seemingly care less to what the public does, because they're making money anyways. I mean if Subkulture did really care, they wouldn't have treated BTS like trash and asked them to sit on the ground. Let's be real. Also, (once again bringing up their health) JYP isn't that stupid, they aren't known for overworking their artists. Unlike SM (EXO) or Source Music Entertainment (Gfriend), JYP has been able to stabilize the amount of events their artists go to. (I mean highkey JYP and YG don't send their artists to a lot of events.....) Sure, Jackson has been seen tired going to the Law of the Jungle, but what about other idols? Are they not tired as well. Fans need to understand that from a bare face, you can't tell that they're being overworked. I mean I have huge bags under my eyes, why don't people care, I'm not being overworked I'm simply going to school. YA JUST CAN'T ALWAYS SPECULATE THINGS FROM TINY MATTERS. Like if there's a rash on an idol's neck, it's bound to be called a hickey and that their idol got laid. LIKE PLEASE. Also, if you have seen all the interviews regarding what programs Jackson wants to be on, they simply have a choice to whether they want to go or not. Idols say that they would like to go on a program, and if the PD of that show likes them, then they're casted. I mean, idols have a say, in a way, to what programs they would like to attend. You could simply view variety shows as if it was a drama or movie. Idols are able to review which ones they want and simply if they like it, they go through casting. The big idea that should be shown to the massive amount of fans is that you should know the actual story/both sides of the story before you make any quick judgement. Neither you or me know, it's all a speculation. LIKE SERIOUSLY IF YOU KNOW THE STORY PLS TELL ME OR HAVE SUBKULTURE SPEAK UP ABOUT IT AND IF IT'S TRUE THEN MY ESSAY HERE IS USELESS TO TRY AND PROVE MY POINT. 

Jaebum....

So, I have been actually quite hyped for GOT7's latest album release and the mere day of ticket buying for their concert is only in about 34 hours....... However, the news of JB being unable to attend the 29th and 30th Seoul concerts due to a spinal disk injury has made me felt uneasy. There is definitely a possibility that JB won't be able to participate in overseas concerts ((which i seriously hope won't happen ohmygoodness)) All in all, I hope that JB will have a speedy recovery so I can see him on the 10th T_T JB IF YOU'RE READING THIS (but ur probs not bc this is in English + well not many people see this LOLOLOL) I LOVE YOU OMG LOLOL 

UPdated

1) AKMU 
So first I would like to apologize for saying that AKMU would comeback this month, but posters have been released that they will be coming back on May 4th. ((However, there is always that chance that they won't and it might be pushed back...)) --> look here 2 

PLEASE DO NOTE THAT THESE ARE CONTROVERSIES THAT HAVE BEEN SPROUTED AND THIS IS ONLY AN OPINION ON THE MATTER.... WE AGREE TO DISAGREE. 

2) TWICE 

So, TWICE has recently comeback - ""competing"" against Lovelyz. I personally am a TWICE fan ever since Sixteen, but I'm not saying that I'm not a fan of Lovelyz. However, I find that there has been too many controversies that have been surrounding TWICE. Even after TWICE has released their album cover and song, many fans of other groups were quick to swarm and bash TWICE. I find that quite unresonable to nitpick at every little thing. 

--------- TWICE HAS REACHED AN ALL KILL ON THEIR SONG!----------

- First, there was a controversy that TWICE was copying Girl's Generation's cheerleading theme. 

I feel like this is really safe to say, but many other groups have done the same concept. Not to mention, AOA, APink and considerably GFriend. Yes, Girls Generation is a "sunbae" of these other groups, but why weren't there any bashing on other groups?? Also, if you had watched the MV (which will be linked below) the MV isn't pertained to only the cheerleading concept, but in fact creates a more dimensional image. 

- Second, TWICE's album cover had paper art in which it was a ripped paper and it showed the member's faces. There was this conversy that mentioned that TWICE was copying Block B. However, many other singers have also done this on their album covers and yet they were also not bashed. In fact, many pictorial magazines have done this. uhm....

(these are purely based on my opinions and you definitely can object to them) 

(Lovelyz MV) 

(TWICE MV) 

3) SULLI 

So, ever since Sulli has left f(x) there has definitely been rumors of Krystal leaving as she is following her sister, Jessica Jung's footsteps. I personally believe that ever since Sulli has left, the chances of f(x) breaking up is greater than what I have expected. (this is just a possibility not a stated fact) I wouldn't think that f(x) would go as a trio, but there is always a possibility that they might add a member. (remember this is only if Krystal does leave) BUT about Sulli, there has been quite the controversy because of Choiza (from DynamicDuo.) After posting some "19+ pictures" on Instagram, netizens are quite riled up. Personally, there are other people who wear more revealing clothing, but at the same time I feel like Sulli does it too excessively on her SNS. Yes, she is showing her love towards her boyfriend, but many people have found it excessive and well, disturbing. This is something that's quite different from American culture where possibly anything can happen, but it won't become such a controversy.  It's not that I'm against her relationship with Choiza, but isn't the age gap a bit too big. BUT once again, this is her life and not ours. ALSO, a lot of people are asking SM to drop Sulli or don't renew the contract with her. There was a speculation (I'm not sure if it's true) that Sulli will be doing a bed scene with Kim Soo Hyun. Thus, this created a huge controversy and many neitzens have said that this suits her the best.... 

WANG JACKSON

So, if you're ever in a bad mood or you're feeling sad and need a laugh, WATCH THE VIDEOS BELOW. They're all about Jackson from GOT7 (i know GOT7 again) BUT ITS SERIOUSLY FUNNY OMG ok have a nice day :) -- may have curse words in eng subs 

GOT7 OFFICIAL LIGHT STICK

So, after 2 years of debuting, GOT7 has finally gotten their offical light stick !!!! I know I may be posting too much about GOT7, but they're one of the groups that I keep track of the most... BUT I WILL TRY TO KEEP UP WITH OTHER GROUPS UPON REQUEST THO.. LOLOL but anyways, what the GOT7 lightstick looks like will be below as well as the user guide. 
Oh , the GOT7 lightstick is really cute, but when you first look at it, you're kinda like what the heck. The shape of the lightstick resembles the IGOT7 (ahgase) as we are baby birds. *spoiler* but the lightstick color is light green !! ((I'm sure theres going to be some sort of controversy about the color, just like iKON did, but ITS A COLOR)) 
I assure you this user guide is more interesting than your 3 minute video that lacks your idols, which is the reason why this video is about 6 minutes. Please check out the video and support GOT7 Thank you !!

Director: Lee Eung-Bok

Writer: Kim Eun-Sook, Kim Won-Suk

Episodes: 16

Network: KBS2

End Date: April. 14. 2016

Cast:

Song Joong-Ki	Song Hye-Kyo	Jin Goo	Kim Ji-Won
Yoo Shi-Jin	Kang Mo-Yeon	Seo Dae-Young	Yoon Myeong-Joo

Disclaimer:

 This drama has been doing well with their ratings, as this is one of the biggest hits for KBS. The writer of this drama had also written Heirs which is known for Park Shin-hye and Lee Min-ho. If you haven't listened to the OSTs for this drama it will be linked here --> 

Most of the songs are still currently in the top 20 on the Melon charts as it shows the greater success of this drama. I also want to address how many people are saying this drama is overrated, but in my opinion, this drama was actually really good and lived up to the hype. 

Review:

First of all, this drama was probably the first drama that I have watched that pertained to the 'military' theme. In the beginning I was a bit worried to whether I would like this drama or not, but Song Joong Ki was too captivating. (He's will forever be my flower boy friends) In contrary, this drama well portrayed the struggles of the different working classes. The military, per say, contains much more than one would expect. In America, I never found much interest to find out how military training is like, but with this drama

GOT7 Fanqueen....

(No sort of promo is affiliated, I just found this video through my Youtube suggestions and I thought wow.. this is really funny LOL) 

LOL SO I KNOW A LOT OF MY POSTS HAVE BEEN ABOUT GOT7 AND IM REALLY REALLY REALLY SORRY FOR THAT... on a brighter note, I would like to express my love for this video. It's basically a 'don't laugh challenge.' I thought I wasn't going to laugh, but.... I couldn't LOL there are some parts where you're just like..... 

Heads up: there is vulgar language and some actions 

(once again, this is not my video, but simply one that I found merely searching through Youtube) 

HOMERUN

So GOT7 recently (like a week) released the audio for their second title, Homerun. Okay it seriously sounds like what the heck homerun, but the song is so cute omg ((good job leadernim ^__^ ps JB i love you)) Instead of being a more rap song, feelings are expressed more through vocals BUT SERIOUSLY THIS SONG IS SO CUTE AND THE DANCE IS CUTE i haven't seem this so happy it's cute LOLOLOL Anyways I'll link below the youtube videos for their dance video and their stages. (I don't want to post the audio for it because I feel like it's just kinda cheating GOT7 off for not using their official things.....) 

(this one is a bit low quality sorry!) 

DAY6 Comeback

((sorry for not posting drama reviews, but I won't be doing so for awhile because I am starting new dramas !!)) anyways....

If you haven't seen my previous post on DAY6 it's linked here --> izabouttime
((in this link, you will be able to find DAY6's debut song, please do go check it out!!)) 

DAY6 has made their comeback with Letting Go. As mentioned in previous posts, this is DAY6's first song without Joonhyuk. To clear things up, DAY6 is not going to change it's name to DAY5 due to the loss a member... Joonhyuk will always be in our hearts for his talents!! 
Also, this time around, DAY6 will be promoting on music shows and appeal to the public in known fashions!! 

wait what

Okay so.. just like any other person, I get distracted.. in my case.. I get distracted with other dramas and programs. Just to let you know, I am watching other programs in between dramas and some of them are: Producer 101 and We Got Married : JoyJae couple. 

Producer 101: (Mnet created) is basically about 101 trainees who join this program in order to debut (temporarily) in a girl group that contains 11 members. There is a lot of controversy around it, but this is how variety shows are made to be..... 
Anyways, if you do want to watch it, it is basically a survival show that is considered "rigged" by a lot of netizens. However, I am watching it because of JYP Jeon Somi (previously on the SIXTEEN.) 

We Got Married: (MBC created) is a variety show that virtually marries two 'famous' people persay actors and idols. I particularly only watch the JoyJae couple because well, they are idols. Please don't get me wrong, I'm sure the other couples are cute and sweet, but the JoyJae couple suits my age better...

Angry Mom

Director: Ashbu
Writer: Kim Ban-Di
Episodes: 16
Network: MBC
End Date: May 7. 2015


Okay so this drama photo may look a bit weird and appalling, but please watch the drama and give it a chance!

Cast:

Kim Hee-Seon	Ji Hyun-Woo	Kim You-Jung	Yoon Ye-Joo	Baro
Jo Gang-Ja / Jo Bang-Wool	Park No-A	Oh A-Ran	Jin Yi-Gyeong	Hong Sang-Tae

Ji Soo	Lizzy	Kim Tae-Hoon	Lim Hyung-Joon	Ko Su-Hee
Ko Bok-Dong	Wang Jung-Hee	Do Jung-Woo	Oh Jin-Sang	Han Gong-Joo

Review:
First of all, solely based on the casting, this drama gets a 100/10. From Baro to Ji Soo to Yoo Jung, this drama really came together nicely. Now, it would definitely be a lie for me to say that I purely only watched this drama because well, Baro and Ji Soo were in it. However, as the story line did progress and I got farther into the drama, the plot became well, interesting and different. Now, I know I say that a lot of dramas are ""refreshing, interesting, different, etc." but this time... I mean it. With the high school theme still played into the drama, they brought up cases such as .....

DAY6 Comeback

As recently mentioned, one member has left the group and this is their first comeback without him. Their teaser photo will be below as well as their debut song, please watch out for Day6 !! 

BTOB MV Spot

DAY6
Sometime at the end of March 

this will be their first album since Junhyeok left due to ""personal issues"" many people are suspecting that it is a dating scandal, but let him live his life guys 

Taeyeon 

April

Concert dates in Seoul will be August 23 and 24th

GOT7 Comeback teaser

GOT7 is flying to us !! (how cringy but, they actually are in like an airplane) Anyways, GOT7 has released their teaser photos for their concert dates. Their first concert, in Seoul will be April 29th and 30th. GOT7 will also being doing a 'fly in USA.' (the dates of the concerts will be on the photo itself) Their Seoul concert tickets have been said to be sold out already (YAY GO GOT7, I'm so sorry for the fans who can't make it (me) and those who weren't able to get tickets) Anyways, GOT7 did release their teaser and it is located on their Naver V App (without subs.) I have tried looking on Youtube for the video, but it isn't showing up. 

The Naver V App is actually really useful to see live comeback concerts and just to watch your idol(s), not on stage. So, if you're interested (it's kinda free) go download it !!!
