BP's bsides are title track level

 

- Forever Young

- Really

- Don't Know What to Do

- Kick It

- Pretty Savage

- Crazy Over You

- Love to Hate Me

 

all could work as blackpink title tracks. maybe teddy oppa really made some points  

 

Facts!
The fact that they haven’t acknowledged “Crazy over you” at all when it’s their best b-side, makes me mad. They only performed it once in their online concert or whatever

It was Snowdrop that increased her popularity, I think. And also the “underrated” narrative surrounding her, the way Blinks felt the need to overhype her because she’s “underrated” kinda made her the most loved member within the fandom 

Yeah, she is low key the most biased member now

Pretty  

Jisoo got the best teasers today, she kinda looks like Chaeyoung here

[Pluto6]

The way this will be Jisoo’s era, like she is literally the top trending topic right now on Twitter, even more than “Blackpink” 

 

Something tells me that she will have the most lines this comeback or be at least 2nd in the line distribution

ugh just so excited for BP ? my #1 group!! i just know the MV is going to be STUNNING they always have amazing visuals which is why i don’t mind the “basic” teasers. Its kind of their thing.

[Whatevaaaaa]

One thing I will say is that twice definitely makes the best music in k-pop. Blackpink is so stagnant they started off with a bang and each release is another little spurt but they def aren’t pushing themselves in anyway whereas the twice girls improve and refine their sound and image with each era.

there's nothing "basic" about these Pink Venom teasers. they're serving movie posters imo

How can a few teaser pictures send this thread into a spiral for PAGES 

 

Specially when the images are just fine, they didn't gag me but the girls look good. But every group gets dragged for the teasers, IVE most recently, ITZY and aespa too. Why is it such a big deal  BP always serve insane MVs too so I don't really care about the teasers anyways.

I mean shouldn’t the biggest k-pop group in the world cause that type of shift lol? Y’all be carrying over aespa and they just started

There is no legal age for people to do cosmetic plastic surgery on their face ?  Anyway Korean should stop calling people without plastic surgery ‘ugly’ and ending the beauty standard instead of supporting plastic surgery. Praising Minji with tan skin (To Korean) is the start of no more whitening. 

There is a legal age limit but surgeons will look the other way for people with money/people with power (like HYBE). So people (especially in the entertainment business) easily get plastic surgery all the time, even if they're a minor.

[newuser]

Kpop fans need to realize that there are people who are born beautiful and never had a surgery. 

[Jenlisa]

The teasers are hella boring, basic and recycled

This wasn’t true for the first 5 years of Twice contract

[Eternium]

YG’s teasers are always just okay. For teasers: SM > HYBE > JYP > YG.

 

But when it comes to the actual videos: YG > JYP > SM > HYBE.

Tea these kpop fans are talking like every asian borns ugly. I grew up in Asia (before I moved out) and I dated some high visual asians when I were a college student and non of them had plastic surgery plus I wouldn’t date anyone with plastic surgery anyway. It’s not even that common in Asia. 

They always compared a potato quality pic of idol when they were 11 years old to obviously edited photo from a magazine and said oh they did this, they did that. Beautiful people and handsome people do exist in Asia. Not all Asians are mono eyelid, flat nose, big chin and jaw.

I knew he would do a ballad 

[SpankGangsta]

Saw in the other thread that chinese individual bars are boycotting. @Mel. are we taking the L bestie? Is this their flop era 

[SpankGangsta]

Jennie teasers are so basic man nnn i can pick better pics from her ig in 2 minutes

[Kety]

Insane Savage deserved

Yeah and another thing they need to understand is that makeup, styling and the usual top-notch skincare in kpop can also make an idol look unrealistically beautiful than they actually are. Plus the excessive skin-whitening that is normalized in the Asian countries also enhances that plastic-looking image. Not everyone has to have something done to their face with Dr.Kim 
i can name dozens of absolutely gorgeous idols who look exactly the same from even their elementary photos

of course sis but you also need to realize that getting PS in korea is the same as getting braces in the west

it's not a big deal

I just know it that if Red Velvet or aespa released Love To Hate Me it’d be considered a career highlight for them. The bar for BP is just super high, their titles are not for everyone but they always serve good pop songs on their b-sides.  THE ALBUM have no fillers, I fear.

RV actually released ‘Love To Hate Me’ first. 
 

 

Anyways perched for BP. Their teasers (besides HYLT) never really give until the video teaser.

Literally every album released on KTOWN4U has these discounts. Even your own faves.

 

 

Btw, can you please answer where the Korean families are from last Friday? You said Forever 1 was flopping digitally because Korean families were spending time with each other on a Friday night, yet the song is still only #22 on MelOn. Should we file a missing persons report for the families of Korea?

I would like to sincerely thank @Pluto2022 for unintentionally getting me into SEVENTEEN. 
 

Before this, i liked a few of their songs and knew how talented the members were, but I was never too deep into them because I knew that’s a big ass group to get into. 13 damn members  but as I was defending them while talking to Pluto, I started checking more of them and dig deeper into their discography and their content beyond music, and now I’m HOOKED 
there is literally NO other active boygroup today that is as consistent and COMPLETE as them in terms of quality and output. Literally top notch vocalists, performers, composers, lyricists, rappers…all in one group. The diversity that they’ve shown on their music, performance skills and visuals is just so impressive. And they even resemble a male version of Twice regarding how close-knit the members are with each other.  also knowing the fact that they used to live in the basement dorms when Pledis Entertainment was on the verge of bankruptcy and now they’re selling millions with each album and helping the company’s stocks and growth.  And it also helps that they’re all in my age range.

Yup, I’ve fallen hard. End of essay
