Whiplash is what Bang PD has been trying to create. Wouldn't be surprised if he's digging a tunnel under SM right now to get the next demos

H2H is more tripleS than NJ, though. If you look at early NJ - Attention and HB - in particular, they have that school girl concept, yes, but they're very colourful and more reminiscent of some cross between Jpop band Speed and early SNSD.

 

tripleS actually reimagined the "relatable schoolgirl trope" that we're seeing a lot of today. Generation was released prior to Ditto. 

 

 

 

Mind you, I don't think this really matters and I'm sure H2H is stealing from both, but I just think it's interesting anyway. The concept is so broad that I understand why every band from Riize to TWS also uses it as a foundation, usually before branching out into other areas. 

 

But I also think we're at a time in Kpop where debuts are judged really harshly and it's important to have an identity from the get go. How many BP clones have we had in the last year alone? And they're all basically irrelevant. So SM really has its work cut out for it. I'm sure they're up to the task. :suburban:

Seoul Forest Station had better be giving the Seunghan fanbase a discount on all these ads for making their public space beautiful

 

 

get me the mayor on the line, stat

Yeah there are some gems but this era is completely forgettable, it's their first dud I fear :coffee2:

 

 

I will be skipping H2H if this is the music and aesthetic direction they're going for, that and being majority fetuses

second half of 2025

The fact that he's choosing to debut with a temporary group over staying with his own group says a lot.

 

Also, this dispute starting just because MBK wants J-Min to do both BAE173 and Close Your Eyes activities at the same time is completely unreasonable. None of these survival shows have done that since produce 101 season 1. 

And then Hangyul is with Polarix and I'm wondering what's gonna happen there. They don't even have a Korean company to promote with yet which is a damn mess.

 

Kim Kwangsoo you are not seeing the pearly gates.

Why is it always base that gets taken out when the server is struggling?  Take out celebria or entertainment! I don't care about the new Superman film.

Tbf, Triples are literally NJ copy themselves and was literally the first Kpop group to ever copy them though. I remember that they were even labeled as "NuguJeans" by people during Generation era.
They even copied the same Hype Boy set:

well i was hoping for 5-6 :emofish:

is jennie kinda flopping with love hangover? :dancehall:

 

its rising on kr charts but its jennie I think she would debut high regardless of the song

its only 11m views on youtube

 

I think korea wants dancey songs from her?

H2H are more mysterious, feminine and romantic in feeling than newjeans or triples. I doubt we will see them in streetwear in their first few releases. They also don't feel quirky like Illit. They're a FRESH take on the school girl concept.

another uninteresting mv :zzz:

the song is great but some parts feel like they don't flow well… idk how to explain it

haven't listened to it with headphones yet so maybe that's the reason nnnn

 

edit: nvm i switched already :jonny5: we are so back

the sample didn't add much to the song tho, glad it wasn't the first part of the chorus at least

I'm sorry Ms. ATTITUDE

The MV is so BADDDDDDDDDDDDD. The modern day office lady inspired outfits hurt my eyes  s:wan: (Especially the blue / black / gray set)

Are they trying to expand their fanbase to officie worker?

Anyway that hip swing choreo of Wonyoung is still a slay!
