A side of DBSK, anyone?
Previous versions: Version 1

We made it to our second version in just under three months, guys!
Here are the most recent/important things that were discussed on pages 19 and 20 of version one:QUOTE(Jinny @ May 24 2008, 11:37 AM)

Minho and Jonghyun (?) are soooo cute throb.gif
Seriously, where are the DBSK boys, though? Nobody knows. Some people say Las Vegas, some say NY (hard to believe, though). They better not be in New York, because if they are, I'm going to eek.gif verymad.gif thumbdown.gif crazy.gif pinch.gif hammer.gif ermm.gif cry.gif stubborn.gif ph34r.gif wacko.gif sad.gif mad.gif omg.gif ohmy.gif
This is a "preview" of their single (I think the translated name is 'Why Have I Fallen in Love With You' - the Japanese title is REALLY long) that they're going to release in July, I think. I don't think I should call it a preview, though.. it's like, 3 minutes long -_-? I wonder how the poster got the song..
It's unclear.. but you can manage. I LOVE THE SONG ALREADY <3 It gives a nice, summer feel (?!) and I really can't wait until the official release.
QUOTE(Synesthesia @ May 24 2008, 02:21 PM)

Haha yeah, the Japanese title IS really long.
Here's "Noona Is So Pretty (Replay)" if anyone wants to download:

You're welcome, Jinny. :]
Haha, the guy in blue is wearing the same hoodie that he is on their album cover.
Oh and I LOVE THEIR NEW JAPANESE SONG TOO!
I played "Doushite Kimi wo Suki Shimattandarou?" 110 times alone yesterday and 40-something times today. D: It's so good. <33!
Edit:
I own the 20th page! :3 Woot, time to make version two!

May 26 2008, 06:57 PM
HURRAY!! i was about to reply sooner but you made a new thread ahah...im sorry but im going to have to say....SUJU is my favourite
do you know any sites that would let me dl korean pop, my pops deleted my downloading program and im lacking kpop...BADLY...the only thing thats saving me is youtube...but i need it away from the comp lol
jaeminnie
May 26 2008, 07:03 PM
Yeah, I thought about that, I hope I didn't cut you off in the middle of posting.
Who's your favorite member, and when did you become interested in SuJu? I never really got into SuJu fandom since DBSK consumes all my fangirling time, but I FINALLY recently picked a favorite: Eeteuk. <3
And can anyone explain why Eeteuk is also called Leeteuk?
HelplessCry
May 26 2008, 07:08 PM
i cant but imma take a wild guess and say i researched and thats his "stage name" maybe...it sounds better?
omg...i think my favourite member would have to be Hankyung...ahh actually Shiwon...but i love Ryeowook too...they all have their own characteristics which i adore its hard to choose...
i actually got into them. through one of the i think myspace layouts on here of kimkibum...i was like...wow hes cute...
then i youtubed him and...this is where the madness happened...watched episodes of full house and i just automatically fell in love with how down to earth they are.
jaeminnie
May 26 2008, 07:12 PM
I looked him up on Wikipedia and his page doesn't even mention "Eeteuk"; it only calls him Leeteuk. But oh well. It's shorter to type "Eeteuk" anyway. xD
Haha, that's awesome. What is Full House actually about? I've been hearing cute things about it and kind of want to check it out, but I'm afraid that I'll turn into a big SuJu fangirl and love DBSK less. D:
HelplessCry
May 26 2008, 07:15 PM
lmao thats understandable...im actually that way for dbsk >__>
but its about these two girls named anya and eva who are studying korean culture and language so their doing a homestay with Superjunior!!! while suju learns english and they learn korean they help each other and they explore some of korea's land marks and stuff and honestly...they jus thave a good ole frikken time which makes me jealous cause i wish i was them *cries
jaeminnie
May 26 2008, 07:55 PM
I think it'd be easier to make time for DBSK since there are only five members instead of 13. :P
Is it a reality TV show, not fictional/scripted? That sounds cool! I wish I could learn Korean from DBSK.
HelplessCry
May 26 2008, 07:58 PM
yes, its reality. by any chance do you know any websites where i can dl kpop from?

May 26 2008, 08:03 PM

Are there any specific
Full House episodes you'd recommend?

That's not their best Japanese album. They had just debuted in Japan then and did mostly slower songs because their Japanese wasn't that good yet. Their third Japanese album,
T, is way better. Look up "Love in the Ice" and tell me if you like it. I have the whole album uploaded, so I can give you my other favorites from
T too. </ramble xD>
Oh, and their Korean songs are generally better than their Japanese, but I love them no matter what language they sing in

Their comeback stage on Music Core..
Sunmi, Sunye, and YeEun are pretty good at live. I'm not sure if you guys know, but Yoobin (the rapper) can't sing live because of something happening with her vocal chord? and Sohee is just

I honestly thought that after a while, she'd get better.. and between their Tell Me - So Hot promotions, she'd be trained or something. But wow -_- I was soo disappointed when her part came.. her voice is still weak? and out of tune..
[/bashing] ;]

May 31 2008, 12:37 PM
"So Hot" is the only song I've read that has such conceited lyrics.. The WG probably didn't write that themselves (did they, Jinny?), so I can't blame them for that, but the way JYP is marketing them is seriously stupid.
Really, what happened to Yoobin? I'm actually okay with her since she's one of the only WG members who can sing live.
Sohee just needs to get out of the group. If she left, AND if JYP stopped marketing them with too mature/sexy of an image, I might actually try to like them.

The Wonder Girls are set to make its comeback on tv this weekend (31st May) on MBC Music Core. But there was a feeling of deja vu with the group¡¦s rapper, Kim Yoo Bin being diagnosed with strained vocal chords recently.
Eldest member and rapper Kim Yoo Bin, will have to lip sync for Wonder Girls performances after being diagnosed with vocal cord lesions and spasmodic dysphonia recently at a checkup at a hospital in Kangnam, Seoul. Yoo Bin was advised to take a 4 weeks rest and get treatment for her vocal cords.
For their comeback performance on MBC Music Core this Saturday, they have decided to have Yoo Bin lip sync for her rapping part. This will continue until her condition improves. JYPE expressed that since end March, her condition was really bad and she barely finished the recording of the single album. Yoobin herself has been looking for ways to cure her illness but to no avail.
It would be a great pity especially as Yoo Bin with her husky voice had been assigned 15 rap lines in So Hot. In fact, most would agree that her rapping portion is the most awesome part in the whole song. But her health is of greater importance and we should be thinking long-term.
Since releasing their So Hot track on 22nd May, it has dominated online music portal sites, Melon, Cyworld, etc capturing the number 1 spot within two days.
On a happier note, Yoo Bin is officially an adult. (thanks to ahboo)
Wonder Girls will release their 'So Hot' single next month on 3rd June. They will also be recording a digital single today with their producer, Park Jin Young including Asian superstar Jackie Chan, etc where all sales will go to relief efforts for the devastating 12th May Sichuan earthquake in south western China.

Do they usually have music videos for a song in a single? Because I REALLY want them to have one for this song

Oh yeah, Cristy, I guess Youtube deleted the video of the song (sorry, I can't memorize the title lol) so I found another link.

Jinny, Avex always deletes videos that haven't been officially released by them. Remember with "Purple Line," people ripped the preview MV and uploaded it but Avex deleted those until the whole, offical MV was out? And "Doushite" (just call it that) was leaked two months early, so yeah.

Do you guys have any recommendations for (Kpop) CDs? When I go to Korea this summer, I'm planning to buy a LOT of CDs (because I can't find any here in the US). I don't really listen to Jpop, so.. well, if it's Japanese music by DBSK, then you can tell me any recommendations, lol.
Btw, do stores still cell CDs from like.. I don't know. 2006?

Jun 2 2008, 08:50 PM
BUY T. Seriously. It's amazing, their best Japanese CD yet. And they should; 2006 wasn't that long ago. ;)
JYONGRI sings in Japanese, but her name sounds Korean.. I don't know anything about her, but she has this song "Kissing Me" that's good. I'll upload it for you all later.
