Yes. You probably didn't knew because it was actually not that good. Love her as an idol but none of the songs stood out for me.

Jihyo's solo fills me up with so much rage tbh :rip: Like the EP was actually fantastic, but the title track? Wtf was that. You have a once in a generation all-rounder idol and you give her a run of the mill upbeat song instead of an actual statement and cultural reset that plays to all her strengths. Like she deserved to be Hyolyn's daughter, with an actual chance of success. I know the mini sold a lot because of her fanbase but it just came and went. 
Also the timing was weird as hell, I would have probably given Nayeon a comeback before Jihyo got her solo debut. That way Nayeon could have rivaled POP! In terms of success with ABCD and they would have found more time to polish Jihyo's solo.

I dont know how much input she had for her album songs but just basing on her solo songs choices for their concerts...Jihyo does not have an ear for sounds that the gp would like and also would fit her voice.

Now that everyone agrees that IVE was fumbled by Starshite, can we be kinder to these girls if they flop

Who is a Western artist that you can see Girls' Generation collab with In 2027? I know that ain't ever gonna happen anymore, but say SM actually tries for once's and hooks them up with an artist that fits thier style. 

 

I lowkey want them to snag a Britney Feature :jonny6: #NotDelusional @Eternium

SNSD are the #1 Britney stans. They debuted to a Britney song and have performed Britney songs more times from their debut onwards than Britney herself has :deadbanana:

Even their extremely problematic / racist Kpop was fun. This is how some Koreans learned about native tribes, I imagine.

 

 

You're my lubba lubba, you're my supanova

"Yayaya" was never racist. I HATE when white/black people see a portrayal of colonial native people and think immediately that it's a portrayal of modern indigenous people. That's more offensive than the actual portrayal.

there's actually another 15 year old in that group too, the one that looks like Renjun in a wig.

That's not a bad thing. These idols start working at 8. I'm not mad at them for getting to debut early.

Jihyo's music is awful. There's no reason to give her solos.

She is not an all-rounder and she is not made for solo music. Even in TWICE songs, look at how "Feel Special" turns to **** when Jihyo/KellyClarksyeon take the second verse after Nayeon/Sana. Jeongyeon and Jihyo are their most talented vocalists but their tones are so horrible meanwhile Sana and Nayeon have excellent tones for pop music. Jihyo doesn't have what it takes for a solo and she should be in a trio. She's an insanely talented performer, but her voice is not made for music.

aespa new lightstick will be the best release of August :jonnycat:

I was literally praising them in my original post for being able to sell out stadiums in the US? Like who tf asked you to then write a lengthy post listing their english songs that no one asked for ? Was that not you? Then HOW am I the one starting shady ****?? This is ridiculous :deadbanana2: It's like you have a kink of getting offended and angry at imaginary stuff and then lashing out. We've seen that countless times in this thread. You've literally brought twitter drama in here and acted like we're the ones partaking in it.

also where in this entire conversation have i even mentioned the sheep, rats. pigs or whatever animal kingdom you're speaking of? 

I'm gonna say it once and never again, get a ******* grip, because the way you're spending your energy in this is beyond my understanding at this point. It's like you thrive in creating unnecessary drama in this thread it's weird as hell.

Jihyo doesn't have what it takes for a solo and she should be in a trio. She's an insanely talented performer, but her voice is not made for music.

Your subjective opinion is your subjective opinion. But it's widely acknowledged that Jihyo is top-tier idol, like it's not a fantasy. She's incredibly charismatic and a beast of a performer, and her vocal tone might not be for everyone, but she can definitely sing her ass off and can create a stellar solo discography if she deploys her strengths and her sweet spot in vocals. Her EP was amazing despite that title track. Also Jeongyeon has an incredibly rich voice so idk where you're getting this "horrible tone" thing from. You just have to know more of their discohgraphy instead of basing it from just one song. I also love Nayeon's tone and Sana has her moments, but it's better to not try to speak for everyone when it comes to your taste.

Also Feel Special...my fave choruses from it are Nayeon and Jeongyeon. I would never choose Sana because sis has that thinner tone that quite doesn't pack a punch at all for a chorus like that. But again, that's my opinion.

Finally some good outfits on him! I hate what his stylist is doing with his performances outfits

I know these are actual dancers but I expect all the korean gays to know Twice choreos like this :gaycat2:

 

 

Ive song sounds like a fun bop, you guys are so boring....:coffee2:

 

 

2020 was truly one of the best Kpop year ! The amount of classiK like this one we got :jonnycat:

the way i'd be ok with the chorus if the verses were great (we haven't heard it yet but i can just tell) and the song was longer :rip:

Edited by hallucinate

ok so even my fave and best songstress ever, joy is washed. red velvet had the biggest downfall in kpop of all time

I can't stress enough how perfect this song is for her, I think we found a perfect genre for Mina solo 

 

 

How many debut this group will have ?

 

 

Their first debut

 

Their second debut

 

Jaejun also debuted twice before

 

Edited by Xalric

How come no one has posted JOY yet?

 

 

This sounds like a Power Up / Umpah Umpah follow up :deadbanana2: Was expecting the chorus to be more exploding
