lambogirl 0 Posted July 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 At first I thought they were a wannabe visual kei band O_o but apparently they're labeled as Germany's boyband. I'm not really into them but their sound is kind of like a hardcore ver of Jonas Brothers^^; (ok nvm I'll stop comparing them to Jonas brothers LMAO) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shiro420 0 Posted July 28, 2008 Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 they are a bit emo-rockish (I have their album) They are pretty good though. It's weird hearing the lead singer though cause you can hear the german in his voice but he's singing in English. I was a little put off, because the only other german band I listen to is Rammstein (starts headbanging) Naturally, she has to be on every show xDDDDDD Yep, BOA is (was?) considered Korea's very own Britney Spears (back when Spears was still popular) I guess she doesn't get comparisons anymore. To keep it on topic....does anybody even remember 98 degrees? Lol....the owners of the korean shop I went to (Music Plus) told me apparently ShinEE name is pronounced Shiny xD....interesting tidbit of info. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lambogirl 0 Posted July 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2008 (edited) Korea's britney spears now is Hyori. (but I consider Hyori 100x better) LMAO. yay American boybands!! 98 degrees.. yes I love all boybands of that era. I saw a show with Backstreet Boys and H.O.T. It was amusing.. they had a dance battle and BSB was like wtf. XD http://youtube.com/watch?v=GYxWg1MnCA8 yeah SHINee is pronounced shiny.. lol. It was weird at first but everyone got used to it. (before they debuted everyone kept calling them shine.) Edited July 28, 2008 by lambogirl Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greygula 0 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 Since Hyori has been around longer than BoA I'd say she was the Britney(who is still popular) first since she has a sexier image. BoA has tremendously better vocal so you could equate her more to Christina if you wanted to stick in that pop era of America. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NOTanOTAKU 0 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) see that's what I thought XD I need to stop listening to random people x_x but anyways we're getting a bit off-topic since BoA isn't a boyband lol. ok I know they're not asian.. but who the hec is Tokio Hotel? Hahaha, yeah, I suppose we are off topic. All I know about Tokio Hotel is that they are from Germany. Someone suggested them once, and out of curiosity, I googled them. They seem rather popular with anime fans though, but I'm not sure what the connection is there. The name, perhaps? Edited July 31, 2008 by NOTanOTAKU Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lambogirl 0 Posted July 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 @greygula: hm yeah true^^ I think many compare BoA with Britney because of her 'My Name' MV. @NOTanOTAKU: That's good to know. I think we need to see more of SHINee cuz I don't think they're getting enough love right now^^; Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lambogirl 0 Posted August 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) Rain WAS in JYP but now he has his own company J-TUNES. He's supposed to make his comeback this fall as well.. btw if you all are catching the Olympics make sure to look out from Hankyung of Super Junior.. he'll be carrying a torch there^^ and there's also the rumor of Rain performing but meh we'll see if that rumor is real =p Big Bang's new single will be out on olympic weekend aka otakon weekend TT TT (internet is gone nooo) oh and SEO TAIJI'S NEW SINGLE IS OUT <3 </end of fangirl> Edited August 2, 2008 by lambogirl Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lambogirl 0 Posted August 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 No it didn't fail.. well to me it was a bit disappointing. I just don't like their new song actually. Haru Haru: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76v7ogxeNvo Big Bang changed their sound ever since 'Lies' and it's just not as appealing to me as much. (but the song will eventually become one of those songs I'll end up liking anyway after a few repeats ) There's too many comebacks later in fall.. tough competition DBSK (pushed to September) Wondergirls SHINee Rain Minwoo SS501 @andrea: yeah I ended up buying only 1 of those magazines. I saw 3 issues with Tohoshinki on it. T_T I hate being broke during conventions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

greygula 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 You know I don't enjoy the Jonas Brothers but you know what, if other people do good for them! I'm tired of people being all oh they're just trying to be Hanson. Especially on the internet. Like I like Girls Aloud and people are all they're so trying to be the Spice Girls when infact they aren't. It's just certain formula's work better than others. I look forward to seeing you guys! I'll be at Nekocon later this year hosting two panels so you can find me there! I randomly had to move before Otakon this year so I missed it ;___; but I'll be there next year for sure!

greygula 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 @lambogirl: Well no mine isn't KPOP as Anime conventions center on Japanese culture and media it will be JMusic, Beyond JRock and I will mention Korean and Taiwanese artists that have entered or tried to but it will not be on KPOP itself. So don't worry ours will each be very original! But you'll most definitely see me at your panel! @kaki: You know everyone has something they love on a man, it's noses for me, it must be eyebrows for you! But I thinks it's people's unwillingness to except new things and subconsciously think that if they like the old then it makes them superior in some way. That's why people try and find the similarities in new groups and previous groups. Also on semi topic since its about a girlgroup..anyone here SNSD when cutting to commercial break during swimming a day or so ago? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lambogirl 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) @greygula: My panel @ Nekocon is actually Jpop+Kpop 101 *is ded* I don't think many will show up if it's just K-pop sadly. ahh please I'd love if you could attend the panel ^^ I'll go to your panels too! :3 I didn't hear anything.. I haven't watched Olympics all weekend long because of Otakon. Speaking of SNSD.. guess who's in New York! They'll probably head back to Korea in a few days for the SMtown Festival. wow you like noses on a guy? I find that to be so strange^^ well I know someone with a feet fetish D: nothings stranger than that.. x_x I like eyes and skin!

greygula 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 I just want to know if anyone else is having problems with quoting in replies, because I am. Anywho, once I write up my syllabus for the panel I'll let you know more, but if its anythign even thought a lot will be pop, I'm also mentioning, indie, ska, rock(but not kei), hiphop, etc. I saw people on Soompi talking about it too so it must have been SNSD. Oh you know I feel so lame I never catch any good concerts except Otakon. Lol I feel silly I should of said strong noses, and by strong noses I mean, something that stand out but sill fits in nice. You know I have nice skin but Lord what I wouldn't give for skin like his. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So we all know the F4(aka JVKV) formed a boy(man)band after all staring in Meoter Garden. Matsujun a member of Arashi was in Hana Yori Dango and now Kim Hyun Joong is going to be in the Korean version of Boys over Flowers. Arashi sung in the first and second season openings Love So Sweet and Wish and the F4 sung Jue Bu Neng Shi Qu Ni and Yan Huo De Ji Jie in the second season not the first. So is this an automatic single for SS501 and an automatic hit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lambogirl 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 what the hec.. that's messed up since hyun joong will be in Boys Over Flowers it probably will be a hit. (if anything make SS501 even more popular) Boys Over Flowers is one of those dramas you instantly fall in love with. (I don't know what will happen if Korea screws it up.. which I hope they don't I expect more from Korea since I love k-dramas the most) @shiro: You should let that song on 24/7 near Chris I noticed he got annoyed whenever I put a korean song on haha.

greygula 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Yeah I was cool with all the fireworks not being real but not that. I do think it will be a hit, I mean even the mangas that Japan screws up still has decently good ratings (I'm talking to you Hanazakari no Kimitachi e ) as much as I love Shirota Yuu and Oguri Shun lets be honest the Taiwanese one was done better..well in my opinion Like I just listened to Arashi's newest single for Uno's drama and I like it but I may watch the Korean drama it was based on as I usually like Korean dramas best.

I can't say much about chinese movies since majority always have martial arts in it Japanese movies are really deep. I like watching movies that have all those feelings (sad, funny, exciting) I know I'm being korea biased again D: but Korea gets my vote for movies.

greygula 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Korea I like the dramas because IDK they pull more at my heart strings.

lambogirl 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 this is true! Every korean movie I have has English subtitles! (even the artist merch XD) but AHEM yeah boybands..

I'm not sure how well that works forever when it comes to a boyband. Also I propose we try and keep this thread running until next Otakon! And we should all go to Matsuri's or maybe Edo, if we have to expand the title from boybands to boybands, idol dramas, and girlgroups to keep it going then lets do it!

lambogirl 0 Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Yeah they do. Kim Bum doesn't strike me as a guy to be in a boyband honestly.

Oh my god yes I love short series, I enjoy a lot of British dramas for that reason too because even if they are like 5 seasons(series is what they're called in Britain) they're still like 13/15 episodes max. Yeah Taiwan does seem to have low budget stuff, but I'm ok with that sometimes seeing as so many tv shows seem to be overly done over here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
