BLOG HIATUS

I seriously don't have enough time to update this thing frequently anymore. Everything is on my Tumblr now. So hit that up instead!

2PM + Eun Hye + Cass

YES!!!! It's finally here! AND IT'S AMAZING!

credit to 2odsubs1 for the subs and vids




FUHHH! Intense.

So, Khun's a superstar (duh lol), and Junsu is his manager and Eun Hye is his stylist/cordi/manager/close friend assistant (one of those, can't quite figure it out). And Eun Hye is secretly in love with Khun.

Meanwhile, Taec is a...gangster? Just kidding, he's a cop/investigator! (*spazz out* HUBBY IS A HOT COP!!! teehee.) And Wooyoung is his (oh so adorable) colleague/partner.

Creepy fan?? Probably. Eun Hye looks scared of her.

I was half expecting someone to be already sitting in the back seat of Eun Hye's car and pop out at her. Awww Eun Hye's heartbroken. Solution? Alcohol! Hahaha.

Poor Taec and Woo have to work all night trying to get info out of that dude. OMGAH Woo is so cute falling out of his chair.

ASFGHJK!!! DID THAT ACTRESS LADY STAY OVER AT KHUN'S?! DA EFF?!

And of course, Taec is the detective for this case. And goes through the actress lady's car and finds her cellphone and I guess Khun was the last one she called so he calls. (Hehe, Khun's phone is the Corby they endorsed. Product placement inside another commercial.) (OMGAHD AGAIN & AGAIN and debut promo photos in the background @ 5:03!!!!!)

Nooooo, does Taec like her?! Wahhhh. You better just be being a nice person.

Uh oh, crazy fan appears. Heh, I think my sister would die if she was the girl who got the rose and got to hug Khun. Aghhh, that crazy fan isn't crazy, she's evil and insane. Go hunt her down, Taec!

Aw, Taec's so nice. And such a diligent investigator. ASDFGHJKL!!! NOOOO KHUN KISSED THE ACTRESS LADY. But it looks like she's getting punished for it, crazy/evil/stalker fan style.

Oh s**t, actress lady died. Khun is angry/sad that his secret lover is gone hurt. (Yay! They alluded to his piano skills.)

And of course, in order to cope with loss, you go clubbing and drinking. Haha. Uh oh, Eun Hye is using drunk Khun to her advantage. And now Taec is heartbroken.

Khun in his drunken stupor, punches a guy out to "defend" Eun Hye. And in comes super manager Junsu to defend his client. And then Taec comes to save the day!

And Taec drives Eun Hye home because he's a nice guy and chickens out on asking her out. Aw, he's so cute when he's frustrated like that.

Now Khun has to go take a "vacation" to get away from all the bad press and Eun Hye is going to go with him. Meanwhile, the crazy fan turns herself in! And then they hear that Khun and Eun Hye are leaving. So Taec goes to the airport to ask Eun Hye to stay?? (This is why I need subs, dang it.) (I was right!) But she leaves with Khun anyway.

Uh ohhh, random phone calls like that are never good. So Taec has to go check out Eun Hye's place, and guess what...SHE'S THE CRAZY ONE! (Dang, look at all those pics of Khun. I'm jealous. hehe) Of course, Taec is angry that he didn't figure it out sooner and now Khun is the clutches of his crazy obsessed friend.


I LOVE CASS AND THEIR AMAZING MINI-DRAMAS!

Look at what I got on Monday!!! It's my super belated Christmas present from Melissa :D
Pretty epic story: She had ordered it 2 weeks before Christmas, but it took a while and then when it did finally arrive, they sent it back to Korea because she wasn't at her apartment to sign for it so she had to make a bunch of calls and then they finally sent it back to her and now it's in my possession! (Phew.)

SHINee: 2009, Year of Us

(Sorry for the crappy picture. I took it from my phone.)

It's BEAUTIFUL (and so are they, of course). Black and white and red and desaturation galore! And it's so...different than most other album art/photos I see. It has this sort of artistic feel to it, with candids and harsh lighting and whatnot. I wanna put the photos up in a gallery for all to admire :)

Thank you, Melissa!!! I love it!

My collection is growing :)

Korean Music Festival!

Yups, I'm going!! With the sister. :D
There's a rumor that 2PM and Big Bang are 95% confirmed to be there...*EPIC SPAZZ OUT* (I really hope there will be a 7 member 2PM by then. *cough* Jay, new album, go back now *cough*) I told my sister and she went all spastic on me about Khun. Kekeke...

Dear KMF,
Please please please get SHINee too. You had them last year, bring them back!!!! It would make my life infintely times happier to see my babies live and in person.
Sincerely,
Me

We have seats in the J2 or G2 section (I can't remember which section exactly because I was frantically clicking between both during the purchasing process. Guh, that site was being such a huge hassle.)

It's 3 months away and I'm already super excited. I think I might combust right after the concert. Ahhhh!

------------------------
Sidenote: I don't have a much time to actually write good/coherent blog entries anymore because of the new semester workload. I'll try when something big comes up. There's always time for Tumblr though. I try update that everyday since it's easier. :)

It's time for 2AM!

The other 4 One Day brothers haven't been getting as much love from me as they deserve in the past because they weren't promoting anything. But that has all changed now :)

May I proudly introduce to you, 2AM's new album!!!

죽어도 못 보내 (rough translation: Even If I Die, I Can't Let [You] Go)
1. Intro
2. Even if I Die, I Can’t Let You Go (죽어도 못 보내)
3. I’m Sorry I Can’t Laugh For You (웃어 줄 수 없어서 미안하다)
4. I Love You (feat. Baek Chan, Joo Hee of 8eight)
5. To Her (feat. Chansung of 2PM)
6. Outro (I’m Laughing)

They released a series of teasers:

Oooh dancers....
Everyone was wondering who they are. I'm guessing it's 2AM, because who else would it be, really?


Seulong. Spring showers.
Awww Ongie, don't cry!


Jinwoon. Summer vines.
He's got a new hair color!


Changmin. Autumn leaves.
Gotta love his voice ♥


Jokwon. Winter snow.
He's such a diva, but I still love him.

I just gotta say, these teasers were shot AMAZINGLY.

They did their first comeback stage on Music Bank last night:

Perfect.

And the music video was finally released this morning!

I cannot wait for this to come out in HD. It's beautiful as it is, but it's going to be GORGEOUS when it can be viewed and heard in HD quality.
(I was wrong, the dancers are some random people. And I actually don't like that they're there in the background. But they're kind of hardly noticeable, so it's okay...)

Polygamy

K-Pop is a polygamist religion. Most of us have multiple "husbands". It's true. I have 2.

Key and Taec.

And very soon, I'll have Joon as my 3rd.

My sister said she has 3: Khun, Onew and Minho.
(I have successfully converted her into a K-Pop fan! But that's a story for another blog post.)

When I posted my statement on Twitter, I got replies from K-Pop tweeples who said they had 8. (Luckily, they weren't the same as mine.)

There are so many husband-worthy guys out there in the K-Pop world, it's impossible to choose just one ;)

Mail time! (Part 2)

When I got home from my Walmart/school supply run today, I found a package waiting for me on the stairs. I thought to myself, "YAYYY MY SHINee STUFF IS HERE!!" False alarm. It was my book for my Modern Asia class. 10 minutes later, my dad walks in the front door with the mail in his hand, holds up a small gray package and asks, "What's this?". I dash over to him in about half a second, snatch it out of his hand, and upon seeing the green Customs sticker on it, celebrate and cheer for a good 2 minutes.

Inside:

The mirror dog-tags and lock & key earrings will become permanent accessories. :)

Animals!

K-Pop boys make me want to parade around in an animal onesie costume...and not just for Halloween.

SHINee for Hello Baby :) That is one lucky toddler.

Why are Onew, Taemin and Minho's all mixed up? Onew should be the chicken, Minho the cow and Taemin the frog. Key is a raccoon ^_^. Jjong works as a tiger, he was one for his Yunhanam date too.

And MBLAQ too!

Cheon Doong is a giraffe (with his sister Dara)

Mir is a bear! Awwww. (With his sister and nephew)

LOL! Joon's fish head doesn't really count, but who cares?! Look at those muscles ;)

Why are K-Pop boys so ADORABLE!? They just keep giving me more reasons to love them.

TTFN

The goodbye stages are over :(
Come back soon, my loves!

SHINee - JoJo & Ring Ding Dong

They only announced that SHINee would be doing JoJo, but once I saw Taemin's pants, I knew Ring Ding Dong would be coming :P
(0:18) My heart actually started hurting. It's the last performance...*sigh*
(0:38) This is what my sister calls the "milky voice"
(1:25) Remix!
(1:44) Further proof that Inkigayo has the best camera people ever. ;)
(3:14) Crotch shot again! Thanks, Inki :P

2PM - Tired of Waiting & Heartbeat

(0:13) THEY SAVED A PLACE FOR JAY!!!! Right in the center, right where he's supposed to be. Thank you, Inkigayo!!!!
(0:19) Trying to blind everyone...
(0:42) HOLY S***! Ripped pants on all of them. Hello thighs! Awkward though...
(1:35) ASDFGHJKL Khunnie spazz attack!
(2:28) *smirk* ;)
(2:51) Oh hello Junsu's shoulder, nice to meet you again.
(3:22) They've been switching up the Heartbeat choreo lately. Me likes.
(4:15) Now Junho is the puppet instead of the puppetmaster
(5:39) New fanchant :) Instead of repeating the names they say "We will wait for Park Jaebum. We will wait for 2PM." I hope they heard it and understood.
(6:01) It's not over...
(6:16) RESURRECTED! That's right, they'll be back in April :)

Videos of the Week

1. Onew's cover of "Cracks of My Broken Heart" (Eric Benét)

I've been spazzing over this for a whole week. It's just too good. ♥
And if you search "cracks of my broken heart" on Youtube, you get a result page full of Taeyang, Onew, and Yoseob. LOL. K-Pop FTW!

2. SHINee + 2PM MuBank waiting room

My faves are together in one room!!! It's a dream come true! But a bittersweet one, I must add. It's because they both are doing their goodbye stages. (TT_TT) No more Heartbeat, Tired of Waiting, Ring Ding Dong, or JoJo promotions. *sigh*
Onew + Junsu are so cute ^^ (Don't get me wrong...I still ship Onkey.)
This was on Junsu's bday, so Taec says happy bday at the end, but it gets cut off. :(
OneDay needs to do more stuff with SHINee!

3. Key vs. Jokwon

This has been a long time coming, the ultimate diva-off! They're copying the dance from the Sweet Dreams MV.
(0:16) Jjong's like "go go go go"
(0:23) I really want to know what he's saying about Taemin and Minho
(0:40) UNF!
(0:48) He's singing along LOL!
(0:54) kekekekeke...
(0:59) Taemin and Minho are like the embarrassed sons thinking, "oh god...umma, what are you doing?!"
(1:06) Thank you for that close up shot ;)
(1:13) Yeahhh GaIn unnie!
(1:17) Couple fight? lol
(1:25) And the Diva-Off officially begins!
(1:34) x_x
(1:40) ssanti-krumping ROFL
Further proof that OneDay + SHINee = awesome!
Oh Key boo, you do this stuff, and I still love you. It's the power of K-Pop boys.♥

New Twitter Account

@jlkpop

Just for the K-Pop trending topic missions and spazzes and whatnot.

I realized that I needed a separate one after last nights #KPOP TT mission. 51 hashtags in 4 hours. I'm pretty sure my non-kpop followers hated me.

I've been feeling less bloggy lately cuz there isn't much going on except 2PM and SHINee's goodbye stages. CN Blue's debut is doing well :)

I'll probably post more once Hello Baby starts airing and I can find/watch the subbed episodes and when 2AM's new album releases and their comeback stuff is on air.

Actually, the lack of spazzout-worthy things is good. Spring semester is about to start soon, and I won't have much time to focus on the loves. I have to study and get my bgirl-self back into shape.

Definitely check out my Tumblr. I post there almost every day because it's easier. Lots of eye-candy :) You can definitely see my biases.

K-Pop blog +1

I made a Tumblr blog for more of my K-Pop madness. It's going to be a huge collection of pics and videos and whatnot of the loves. Tumblr = massive source of eye candy. Go check it out!

http://joelleloveskpop.tumblr.com

And I just want to say, fuckyeahkpopmacros is the ultimate win of life.
"here to give you guys a good laugh (:
cause seriously, our kpop idols have the epik-est faces ever ."

Dazed and Confused

I finally got to reading SHINee's interview with Dazed and Confused (January 2010 issue). The pictures are horrid, but the interview was epic win!

(I skipped straight to Key's section first. I was definitely not disappointed.)

Super long post. Read the interview and my spazz outs after the Jump!

C.N. Blue

For the past week, they've been releasing short teasers to "introduce" the 4 members.

1. Jonghyun - Burning


2. Minhyuk - Lovely


3. Jungshin - Untouchable


4. Yonghwa - Emotional


(Yup, the first letters of the video titles spell BLUE.)

Yay Yonghwa's finally gonna debut! Their concept is really clever. All the teasers were of the same song (titled "Alone"), just in different styles. It's a good way to show off how diverse they are. I'm really liking the "Lovely" and "Emotional" versions. The Emotional version reminds me of Maroon 5 :)

Jan. 14! Only 2 more days!

(I should really look into FT Island first...)

Mail time!

My first SHINee YesAsia order arrived today!! *massive spazz out*
I'm wearing both right now. Jjong on my "firsts", Key on the "seconds". :)

The calendar is as good as I had anticipated :) Now I get to stare at Onew for two months...*smirk*
So happy! ^^

Tik Tok

I woke up to find this pleasant surprise waiting for me:One word: HAWT!

2PM feat. Yoon Eun Hye - Tik Tok


New single! New sound! New album in April and I can't wait! This song is pretty different than the whole 1:59 album. No auto-tune, pure 2PM-ness. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

I'm guessing this is for Khun/Taec/Eun Hye's Cass commercial since it has her in it.
Eun Hye is one lucky lady. I like her though (I'm jealous too, of course). She's a really great actress in Coffee Prince, Goong (Princess Hours), and My Fair Lady. 3 of some of my favorite dramas. :)

Kiss Kiss

Will do!
Such cuties ^^

For a special event for 10x10

One more week

Yay! I was misinformed. 2PM doesn't stop their promotions this week, it's next week. 7 more days of the Sexy 6!

Some pics from their Spris shoot:

Mmmmm...the last picture...Taec... ;)

In the wee hours of the morning - Part 2!

I'm sleeping past 5am again, so time for another idol group tweet.
SHINee version!


"In My Room, the Best Place during the coldest of the Four Seasons. The sun will SHINee and Hit Me and YOU as I dream on Replay about Romeo."

1 idol group and 8 songs! And if you want to get techincal, 3 album titles (because they share the same name as their title tracks and group name): Replay (the first mini album), SHINee (the first album), and ROMEO. 139 characters again :)

I should be a poet...*sarcasm*

Oh yeah, follow me on Twitter if you're not already. Pleaseeee.

Schooling

Made my mom watch today's JoJo performance on MuCore on the live stream. She says she likes Onew. Yay! And then I made her and my sister watch a bunch of random 2PM and SHINee videos and dumped some K-Pop knowledge on them. I'm slowly K-Pop-ifying people :D This is fun. Pwahahaha.

Terminology

If you've actually been reading my blog, you'll see that I will sporadically use Korean terminology. For those of you don't understand the random words I'm saying, I am here to explain them. (Some of the spelling might be off. I'm using the spelling I normally see on the subbed videos I watch.)

umma = mother (informal, usually used by kids)
appa = father (informal, usually used by kids)
hyung = older boy (used by boys)
oppa = older boy (used by girls)
noona = older girl (used by boys)
unni = older girl (used by girls)
dongsaeng = younger boy/girl (used by both genders)
sunbae = senior, superior, elder
hoobae = junior
aegyo = cuteness, acting cute
jjang = the best, coolest (Not to be confused with Jjong, which is Jonghyun's nickname. Jjong, however, is also very jjang! lol)
daebak = big win, success
omo = Korean equivalent of OMG

And for those of you who don't know, each idol group has their own fan club and each fan club has it's own name.

This is the only compiled list of names I could find. (Some of them are incorrect.)
http://kpoprants.wordpress.com/2009/08/13/%E2%96%BA%E2%96%BAwhats-your-fan-club-tag/

I'm a Shawol (SHINee), Hottest (2PM), I AM (2AM), VIP (Big Bang), Blackjack (2NE1), A-Plus [A+] (MBLAQ), and whatever f(x)'s fans are going to be called.

That's it for the terminology for now. I'll put this in a link thing in the side menu.

Hello Baby!

cr: wearshining.com

O.M.G! I am so excited for this :) They're doing season 2 of Hello Baby. I never watched the first season with SNSD, but if the show is anything like 2AM's Love Escort, then this is going to be AWESOME! And even if it's not, it will still be awesome because idol boys + babies = EPIC CUTENESS WIN! And, it's a good sneak peek to see if they'll be good fathers in the future ;)

I can picture it already. Key is going to be the overly-concerned umma (the kid is sitting in Key's lap already), Onew is the laid-back appa, Taemin will be the cute hyung, Minho is the serious hyung, and Jjong is the silly hyung.

Okay, I did my research. Thank you, SNSD's Wikipedia article.
Since June 23, 2009, the group has been on a reality series titled Girls' Generation's Hello Baby, on cable network KBS Joy, where they take care of a baby named "Cho Kyungsan" (Korean: "조경산") and each week they (or an invited male guest, called the 'daily dad') select the "Best Mom" and "Worst Mom" from among the members according to their contribution in taking care of Kyungsan for the day. The show ended on November 17, 2009.

So, I wonder who the boys are going to get for the "daily moms"...
This is like SHINee's Yunhanam, but with a kid instead of a noona!

Key + Amber = AmKey

This is one of my fave Key vids. Krystal is doing some behind-the-scenes for SM's 2009 Dream concert. This is the only subbed version I could find on YT.
cr: tinkletinkle123

(0:08) Yes, that was Key saying "star" really loud in the background.
(0:11) Sisters in the same company :D They only kind of look alike.
(0:47) *screenshot* Cuuuute!
(0:54) His English voice is so nice sounding ♥
(1:01) Jjong looks like Jung Yong Hwa here. Weird.
(1:06) So understandable! And you're talking about me right, Key boo?
(1:09) This is why I call him "Key boo"
(1:11) LOL! Key calls her "he"
(1:15) "Hyung" is what a guy calls an older guy. Amber's awesome for not caring if he calls her a guy. AmKey are really good friends :)
(1:33) How does bizzare and lizard sound the same, Key?
(1:37) Leave it up to Taemin to laugh at his umma
(1:46) The way he complains is so cute! *spazz*
(1:49) Key's baby voice = ♥
(2:01) Yes, boo, you are indeed so hot ;) He does the "I'm so fineee" part of the Wondergirls' "So Hot" dance. Of course he would. lol

f(x)! No, not the math function.

Yay! Time for my f(x) intro!

Well, I don't have much to say. Only that when they debuted, I was still only into YG fam, and I had a weird loyalty to them so I didn't even consider looking into other K-Pop artists. That is definitely not the case anymore!

I started watching them more after I found SHINee. I like that they're not overly girly, unlike their SNSD unnies, and more "contemporary", like their SHINee sunbaes. I like them for the same reasons I like 2NE1, they're my style, but even more so. 2NE1 is like an extreme version that I can really only dream about, and f(x) is more attainable.

Victoria's the oldest (22). She was the noona in SHINee's Replay MV! Lucky.
Amber (17) is effing dope! She just straight up refuses to be girly. (She might replace CL as my favorite girl if CL doesn't stop going Lady Gaga on me. Shhhh..don't tell CL.) AND she's from San Fernando Valley! SoCal girl FTW.
I really like Luna (16) too for some reason, I just don't know why.
Sulli (15) is just too cute! (Just like Taemin!)
Krystal (15) is from San Francisco. She's also Jessica's sister.

Gah! These girls are so young!

Alright. Enough talking. Here's their vids (with subs!) courtesy of LunaLoveSubs

1. LA chA TA MV


2. Chocolate Love MV (CF song)

2 comments: Sulli looks sooo badass in this one. And this one is sooo much cooler than the SNSD version.

3. Chu~♥ MV

I love how Krystal throws away the heels at 1:02 LOL. That would be me too.

F.cuz is here...

(It's pronounced as "focus". I totally didn't get that at first.) There's been soooo much hype over them so I decided to check them out since they released the "Jiggy" MV today.

cr: TYPICALpocky7


It's...so...girly...
The dancing especially. I can really imagine this as a girl group song. And it doesn't help that at 1:10, it reminds me of 2NE1's "I Don't Care" MV (when they're sitting in the star room or in the alleyway). The colorfulness and lights is like Big Bang's "Gara Gara Go" MV too.

I don't mean to bash. Sorry, F.cuz fans.

It's good that they're different than the other guy groups. But it's just not working entirely. We'll see. Maybe they'll grow on me.

In the wee hours of the morning

This was my "goodnight" tweet before I went to sleep yesterday at 5am 5:30am.

"Again&Again, I'm up All Night Long until the sun Gimme the Light. I hope I wake up before 2PM (the Hottest Time of the Day) to get Back 2U."

1 idol group, 1 album title, & 4 song titles in a pretty coherent sentence and under 140 characters (139 to be exact). I'm awesome lol. This took a lot of careful thinking at so early in the morning.

I ♥ 2PM!

Oh look...

I changed the name of my blog from "Obsessive Love" to "Joelle Loves K-Pop". Now, why did I do that?

Answer: Because "Obsessive Love" just wasn't doing it for me. It also sounded weird. And since the URL for this is indeed http://joelleloveskpop.blogspot.com, it only made sense to actually name it to match.

One of these days, I'm going to get around to making a proper header banner for this blog. It's an expected thing for me to do, since I am a Graphic Design student. Now wait, don't get me wrong. Don't think that I'm going to do it because it's "expected of me". I really do want to make one, but I can't decide if I want to include everyone in it or just the guys listed in the "My Heart (Especially) Beats For" section. OR maybe not even all of them, maybe just Taec and Key, because I love them the most. Iono! Agh! I think I'm getting delusional. It's only 2AM. (haha! this was not intentional...mmm Changmin, Jinwoon, Seulong, Jokwon...okay yes, I am getting random now) I have gone to sleep much much later than this. Yesterday, actually. I went to sleep at like 5:30am because I was reading SHINee fanfics and watching Dream Team (Season 2 w/ Minho).

Oh yeah! Random thing: My sister wants to name her next Tamagotchi "Khun". Pwahaha! She's hooked. Yes, she has a Tamagotchi still. 2 in fact AND she got them this past Christmas. And yes, she's in college and still wants to play with Tamagotchis. There's something about our generation that still loves their childhood toys/games/etc. I think it's because we had the best stuff. For example: Pokemon, the OG Power Rangers, Neopets, etc. The 90's rocked!

Okay, this post got extremely random. My brain is fried. I went back struck through the non-K-pop related stuff. I don't want to delete it though because I like going back when I'm coherent and laugh at how random my thoughts are.

Cutting down...

on SHINee and 2PM. Not because I want to, but because I'm forced to.

SHINee is only doing schedules until the 15th and then there's a gap of nothing and then they're doing fan meetings from the 26th to the 30th. *sigh* Such a big decrease in broadcasts for me to spazz over.

2PM's is even worse! They stop doing 1:59 album promotions on the 10th and won't be back until April with their new album. Yay for working on a new album, but a whole 3.5 months without my guys is going to be TORTURE. And Jay, now would be a good time to go back to Korea, get in on the new album action, and make me and the rest of the K-Pop world extremely happy.

However, I am glad that my guys are going to get more rest. They definitely deserve it.

And regarding GD, this situation is ridiculous. I support him and his artistic freedom. That's all I'm going to say.

As a general rule, I am not going to write too much about controversies here. I want this blog to be an enjoyable one.

Anyways, back on topic! Just because there will be a lack of recent activity from my favorite guys, doesn't mean that I won't be posting stuff less often. If anything, there will be even more. I still have a lot of others to write about: 2AM, f(x), MBLAQ, 2NE1, etc. Also, I will probably be pic spamming like crazy instead of video spamming :)

And speaking of videos, I was going back through my entries and saw that most of (if not all) the Gayo Daejun videos were taken down. *sigh* I'm not going to go through the tediousness of finding all the videos again. I did it once already.

Helpful suggestion on searching for K-Pop stuff on Youtube:
The date of the broadcast/event in YYMMDD form (i.e. December 29, 2009 = 091229) + Artist name(s)
I don't think this has ever failed me.

Okay, this has turned into a pretty random post...bye...for now...

Packages

I ordered stuff from YesAsia 2 weeks ago. I can't wait for it to arrive!! All SHINee stuff...hehe.

2010 Desk Calendar, Key's Safety Pin Earrings, and Jjong's Screw Earrings

So freaking excited for the calendar!!! I've seen scanned images, and they're gorgeous ♥

AND I just ordered MORE SHINee stuff today x_x

The SHINee World - Ver A. CD, Lock and Key Earrings, Almighty Key Necklace, and Mirror Necklace.

I have never wanted to wear so much jewelery until now :)

From the Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook Nov. 14, 2009 (no Jjong, cuz he had swine flu *sad*)

Yoo Hee Yeol (interviewer): What if you had to describe SHINee in one word?
Onew: Contemporary Band.
Key: Yes, that means...it means that we'll set the trend in any aspect, whether it be in dance, music, or fashion.

Yup yup. Gotta love boys with style ♥

Spreading the love (part 2)

So I totally forgot to post this. Sorry!

It's the 2x3 ft poster of Khun I made for my sister as her Christmas present. It is currently sitting at the top of the stairs so whenever we go upstairs, we get a nice view of the Thai Prince ;)

I'm very tempted to make myself one of Taec and Key...but I have no money for printing *sigh*

(0:08) Looking haughty (and hot) there, Junho
(0:55) Sing it, Woo!
(1:13) Wasn't Khun wearing that striped shirt in the Music Core performance? Yes.
(1:33) Mmm...Khunnie! Thank you Inki cameraman for the best shot ever!
(2:22) Taec babe, I think you're the only one that can rap while punching so hard. Remind me to never get in a fight with you.
(2:40) *spazz out*
(3:04) Damn! Look at the neck vein popping action!
(3:17) The ending is just the perfect length for the complete 7 member fan-chant :)


Each time they perform, it gets cleaner and better. This one at Inki was pretty much perfect. I think the cameramen at Inki are the best. They don't do completely crazy zoom shots and they capture all the good moments at just the right angle ;)

Overall, I love how "minimalisitic" each performance is. The outfits aren't outrageous and they accentuate the guys' hot bods ;) And the choreography is pretty simple, but they put so much beastly energy into it that it stands out.

2PM is jjang!

A.N.Jell!

My favorite "fake" band, A.N.Jell, reunited and performed for the SBS Drama Awards :D


"You're Beautiful" was such a great drama. I really really really hope it comes back for a second season. I can't get enough of my Geun Sukie. ^^

Hongki, Yong Hwa, and Shin Hye won New Star Awards and Geun Suk won a Young People's Star Award for "You're Beautiful"! Yayyyyyy!

2PM is absolutely the HOTTEST time of the day

WARNING: This post gets a bit...steamy... ;)
And NO, I am not delirious at 5am.

So, I am here to declare that 2PM is the hottest group of guys I have laid eyes upon.

The proof:

#3 - Tease (from my KBS Gayo Daejun post)
cr: jjesalva

(1:44) Junho...
(2:21) OMO!
(2:30) Remix!
(2:43) Mmm...pop those chests
(3:36) Junsu...what are you doing?!
(3:39) What...is...happening...???
(3:41) *squeal* Yippee!! ZOMFG what is this madness?! This makes no sense, but I don't care cuz they're so freaking HOT!!
(3:47) Stupid cameraman didn't move down fast enough
(4:02) *spazz out!* Why only the backs?! I wish I were backstage at that moment.
Left to right: Chansung, Wooyoung, Nichkhun, Junsu, Junho (EPIC WIN!!), Taecyeon (baby's got broad shoulders *love*).

Yeah, that's just a teaser.


#2 - KO Combo (from my MBC Gayo Daejun post)
cr: 20dsubs1

I love "drama" intros :D
(0:04) Junsu....what are you doing with that ribbon...?
(0:08) Kekeke...Channie's shirt is open...
(0:16) Yes Taec, you are HOT. Now stop checking yourself out. That's my job.
(0:27) KhunWoo cuteness ^^
(0:39) Whuuuut?
(0:49) Okay, that's a legit reason. But only if the jail is my house ;P
(1:16) Oh shoot, this is intense.
(1:50) Taec! What the heck are you doing!?
(2:00) Okay...everybody in!
(2:16) ...OH...MY...CHANSUNG!
(2:28) Hello, Khun's chest X)
(2:51) PERFECTION!
Left to right: Taec, Junho, Junsu, Wooyoung, Chansung, Khun

Haha it's pretty obvious that they did something with their shirts to make them stay up like that. But I'm not complaining. ;)

C'mon, Junsu, what are you hiding under that sweater??

They ALL can be both cute and hot at the same time. That's the KO combo for me.


#1 - ULTIMATE WIN. (from my MBC Gayo Daejun post)
cr: hdmuzic2000

(0:25) Junsu...so...sexy...pouty lips...
(0:58) Junsu (left of center)...your hand...running down the mic...
(1:11) WHY DIDN'T THE CAMERAMAN ZOOM OUT!? I can't see Junho's hips T_T
(1:15) Junsu...body...wave...THE EFF?! Why are you being so seductive!?
(1:29) One of Junsu's middle shirt buttons is undone...
(1:32) Oh how I wish I was that mic stand
(2:00) Oh Khun... ;)
(2:07) I see you trying to get that second button undone...shall I help you?
(2:15) NO! Zoom back out, stupid cameraman!
(3:11) Taec, you're not yelling your rap as usual...you're calm...that makes it sexier...
(3:23) Dang it Junsu, you should have ripped Taec's shirt off.
(3:29) The next 25 seconds are just amazing.

When did Junsu decide to go all hot and sexy!? I swear, once I saw 0:25, I couldn't keep my eyes off him. I kept catching all his little seductive details. I watched this about 10 times now (once for each member, and the extras just cuz I keep thinking this performance was too good to be true) and Junsu just keeps grabbing my attention. I would like to thank the cameraman for shooting him so well.

Even Woo at 1:01 is looking mighty fine even though his tie is still on and his shirt is fully buttoned up. It's the way he's singing so passionately and pushing his chest out. *cough* Woo, I think your chest wants to escape, unbutton your shirt, please. *cough*

And freaking Khun is such a tease. He totally could have gotten that second button undone. *sigh* Stop trying to hide it, I've already seen your chiseled body!

I swear the cameraman failed on Junho. He missed BOTH bodyrolls. Good thing I can kind of see it at 2:30. He's the second from the left :)

Even Channie...omgah! The way he was holding that mic stand...

Taec, you're just perfect. That's it.

Their dancing was just...amazing. So strong, clean, passionate.


They are my definition of sexy.
