SHINee MNet MCountdown 080828

Posted by epicism on August 30, 2008

First they performed a longer version of SHINee World, which is A;LKSDJFALKSDJ because it is SUCH an awesome song. And you know you gotta love Jonghyun’s “OH!” at the end of his singing part. And the part when Minho goes all ______________ JONGHYUN, _____________ TAEMIN, _______________ONEW, _______________KEY, ______________MINHO, MY NAME IS MINHO. The dancing is just A;SLDKFJALSDJFLKJ because… that whole going in order thing really appeals to me, I don’t know why.

Then Love Like Oxygen. Agh. Why do they cut off Onew’s shoe move, it’s like awesome! And Taemin CAN SING. I KNOW IT. TAEMINNIE IS <3<3 Who really thinks that the dancing in the chairs is hot? I do… And like that slick mic pass in Replay, THEY HAVE ANOTHER SLICK MOVE IN THIS ONE. If you don’t watch them dragging the chairs over, you don’t even notice D: And Key when he sings, it’s like…. SEXY. SEXY SEXY SEXY.

I finished this post before I went to bed! If I don’t feel too criminally late tomorrow, I’ll do a post on their 5th Reality Show episode….

Alison: You know what I’ve noticed about Taemin’s voice? I guess it kinda has like… a Heechul feel to it. But Taemin’s voice is definitely stronger than Heechul’s. It’s just that both of their voices are kinda… bubbly? In a way? ARRGH I have no other way to describe it.

Mod Post #1

Posted by mmmkimchi on August 28, 2008

Okay, epicism had better read this. From now on, we’re color-coding each other. Since we both have a habit of invading each other’s post, I (mmmkimchi), will be putting my words in RED when I invade her post, and epicism can edit this post later with her color.

EDIT// Oh fine, I’ll invade with… THIS COLOR. BECAUSE SHINEE IS ASFJALSDFJ.

And also, if anyone has a comment that doesn’t belong in any of the posts that we post up (such as if you just want to chat or something), direct it towards our ABOUT page *here*

Shin Hyesung’s Comeback @ Inkigayo

Posted by mmmkimchi on August 28, 2008

Okay.  So this is a few days late, but I just downloaded the video and watched it ^^  I can’t offer you a youtube link though, so I suggest you search for it yourself :D

But anyway, DUDE this was AWESOME! Hyesung’s totally rocking the new hairstyle (and he looks super thin >.< ), but his vocals haven’t changed at all!  They… are… AWESOME! Seriously.

He started off with Because of You (?) Yeah.  Well, I liked Awaken a lot more, but the guitar player’s solo was awesome (and doesn’t look half bad himself).

Then he went into Awaken (my favorite song on his new album!)  It was… perfect.  The only thing that could’ve made it better is if Hyesung had danced.  Too bad he didn’t :(   And the MC’s waving balloons around and cheering on Hyesung was so cute <3<3

I think it was an awesome comeback <3<3  Now I’m gonna go listen to Younha’s new album so that I can review it later ^^

Younha- Someday

Posted by mmmkimchi on August 28, 2008

OMG she’s back with a Korean album! DUDE I LOVE this girl! She is gorgeous and so so so talented! She’s also a piano player too! Isn’t that AWESOME?!

Hmm, IDK about her looks, but I hope that’s a wig. She looked gorgeous with her long hair in Ajoo’s Paparazzi.

Ok, so I’m downloading the album right now. I’ll write a review when I’m done listening to it!

Edit// Album review below the cut.

HAPPY 8TH ANNIVERSARY

Posted by mmmkimchi on August 27, 2008

to BoA Kwon!

(first off, I’ve been gone because of boarding school, ok?)

OMFG I cannot explain how much I love this girl. She’s hardworking, amazing, and beautiful. She works so hard to make her lives sound absolutely perfect, and I adore her for that. Did I mention she’s gorgeous too? Well, OF COURSE! She can make ANY HAIRSTYLE, ANY CLOTHES, ANYTHING LOOK GOOD ON HER! I hate people who say she’s a horrible singer, because she’s really not. Sure, her voice isn’t that special, but her lives sounds exactly the same as the recording! That’s awesome (because even as much as I love DBSK, their lives are NOT always perfect.)

She’s been singing every since she was what? 13? And she’s still here! My friends honestly hate her because they think she’s a Japanese wannabe with no Korea pride, but I don’t see it that way. Because Boa sings in Japan, but she is 100% Korean!

Ohhh I’ll mention some of my favorite Boa songs. And pics are behind the cut too.

SHINee- Inkigayo 8/24

Posted by epicism on August 24, 2008

credit: misterkrabspatties @ youtube

(Alison, you totally owe me. I risked my life staying up late to stream this on TVants.) So I streamed this live, and OMG I was just waiting and waiting for SHINee and when they came on I started bouncing up and down in my seat.

They had that little interview section before SG Wannabe and One Two performed, and I was bouncing up and down because OMG Jonghyun’s shirt was like XDDDD It had those old superheroes on it like Spiderman and Captain America. And the MCs forced Minho to do his aegyo :D DDDD.

Well, first they performed The SHINee World and that had better not be the whole song, because I love it. Everything about it is pretty much great. And they sang, “It’s break your naughty” or something XD How awesome is that. And then the music for Love Like Oxygen came on and I was LASKJFALSDJF;LAing because there were chairs and… I don’t know, I’m weird like that. But one thing I remember about Key’s shirt was that it was a black jacket and a white t-shirt under with a key on it (like the pictures for Mnet). Er. Okay. So they started off in the chairs, sang while sitting down for a while, and then they got up to dance. And all of a sudden it SWITCHED to white clothes (obviously they filmed it twice). But I was all OMG HOW GREAT OF A COMEBACK IS THIS to myself. And Taemin looks GREAT in a hat. And the CHAIRS AND THE DANCING AND SINGING IN THEM. And you have to love Key singing in the chair at 3:09, and then when he kicks his leg up <3<3<3 They all sound superbly amazing (especially Minho and Taemin, who didn’t have many parts before).

Alison: I’m here to invade your post, alright?  GOD youtube, crunchyroll, and veoh are all blocked D: I’m downloading the MV right now, but I can’t watch it cause I can’t find a download link for it ):  CYA later!

FT Island “After Love” MV

Posted by epicism on August 23, 2008

Credits: Methycelulosehero @ youtube

The boys are back, and looking better than ever! Well, four of them are. Jonghun.. a little eh-ish. Let’s just hope that it’s only the way they styled his hair. Hongki makes me go all “That is SO not the same guy” in a good way. The black(?? Is it black?) hair looks great on him, whatever color it is. Jaejin’s hair is GREAT. The color looks great on him, and it’s just a;sldfjasldfkjs great. Wonbin. The hot one. He’s looking hotter 8D. And his rap part is just LOVE because you don’t see much of him in the rest of the video (well I couldn’t). For Minhwan.. he’s my favorite so I was just ALSKFJASLF when I saw him because HIS HAIR IS NO LONGER BLINDING. But I don’t understand why in the single shots of him, his hair looks light brown/orange-ish, but in the other scenes it’s… dark? Maybe the lighting? In any case, the music. It’s just great, I’m 100% sure that I’ll love it. Must… find… more… pictures.

This Time MV

Soo… I don’t think this song is exactly great…. but it’s Wonder Girls (and I love them!) so I’ll just do a post about it. First off, Shin Dong Wook is HOT, HOT, HOT! It’s always good to have a hot guy in a girl band MV!

Now onto Wonder Girls. Everyone looks great (: But in order of favorites, it would go like this: Yoobin, Sunmi, Sunye, Yeeun, and Sohee. I won’t lie… Sohee’s not my favorite Wonder Girl.

Even if the song is boring…. well, I still think this is worth watching if you love Wonder Girls!

Love in the Ice (LIVE @ Soul Power)

Posted by mmmkimchi on August 23, 2008

Since this is pretty much my first REAL post on this blog, I’ll start off with one of my all-time favorite DBSK performances!

Credits to: blueeeeesky

This performance is AMAZING. Simply AMAZING! I love their harmonizing, I love how hot DBSK looks, and I LOVE the song! I especially love the part starting at 3:19, when Junsu gets his little mini solo. That voice is pure love <3<3<3 And Micky’s high note at 3:48. I know his voice… does NOT sound good in dancing performances (I’ve criticized it like a million times- I’m a bad fangirl)… but this TOTALLY made me fall in love with him all over again. I mean, that high note is NOT something you’ll find in the recording, and Micky just hits it PERFECTLY every… single… time.
