You could try asking http://www.reddit.com/r/kpop/ they're usually good at that stuff!

Although, Sweden don't really have any big events like USA/UK/South Korea/Australia/Japan etc. so I guess it's easier to notice more things about artists in these kinds of countries even when they aren't on stage. And the competition is higher too.

Here it's kinda the "smile and wave" thing. Anything they say and do always gets blown out of proportion, so they kinda stick to that...

Star Golden Bell is nice, Kim Jae Dong is an awesome person.

The show Asme said is awesome, and here's some others.

Invincible Youth, We got married, Horror movie factory, Family outing, Star King, Hello Baby, Win Win (Taeyeon hosted a few episodes but not many, the time she interviewed Wonder Girls was fun though!), Factory Girl, Girls go to school, SNSD Cheer up!, Champagne, Wonderful Outing 2 with SNSD.

Trying to stick to shows with multiple episodes with SNSD rather than one offs

There's a lot of one or two offs.

Out of those I'd heavily recommend either Invincible Youth or Family Outing, those two along with Strong Heart and Running Man are my favourite variety series

Thanks

Now I have infinite stuff to watch :3 I tried going back "a couple of pages" to see what someone linked, but after going back 15 pages I couldn't find anything. But I'm sure someone linked me a variety show to watch. >_< Damn thread is full of videos and links, so you can't just breeze through either

**Anakso** · 2012-12-23, 01:39 PM

We've linked Star Golden Bell before.

And Strong Heart. Not sure what else.

Oh in addition to IY or FO, also Seohyuns We Got Married is really good and each episode is quite short. Taeyeon did one too but hers wasn't as good.

**Badhairday** · 2012-12-23, 02:04 PM

Aye, I've watched a couple of episodes from Seohyun's We Got Married. It's nice to see her in the spotlight, as she's usually the more quiet one.

Didn't know Taeyeon was in that show too, definitely gotta watch that!

Now I've actually made a document listing all the variety shows, so I shall never again be bored. \o/

**Anakso** · 2012-12-23, 02:13 PM

Taeyeon was in season one. She was paired with an older and overweight comedian. What made WGM so good imo was how cute Seohyun and Yognhwa were together, the awkward moments in the beginning and things like that, in Taeyeons case that never happened because I'm fairly certain there was zero mutual attraction there xD

Also Yonghwa went on other shows and said he loves Seohyun at least 3 times, that I know of, which is cute xD
I think in addition to the awkward moments, what made Seohyun and Yognhwa so good was just how strange Seoyun is and how suave (if that's the right word) Yonghwa is xD Couldn't have picked a better couple for the show! xD

**Badhairday** · 2012-12-23, 02:25 PM

Paired with an older and overweight comedian? I can't wait to watch this! x)

The episodes I've seen with Seohyun and Yonghwa was really cute. Especially when they went shopping for clothes for Seohyun and Yonghwa kept telling her to get jeopard-like clothes, haha.

I think I saw a short bit of something where Yonghwa was asked which girl he liked between X and Y, and he answered "Seohyun" who wasn't any of the alternatives!

Another music-related thread made me remember about when I first came in contact with kpop, and I got curious about what others experience was like.

So, guys of the j-pop - k-pop thread, how did you first get in contact with what you're listening to? What was the first band/artist? What did listen to before, and do you still listen to other genres?

Maybe I should post my own experience.. duh!

While I've watched anime for quite a few years, I didn't really pay attention to the songs in intros/outros apart from a select few, so I won't count that. I was in the "What are you currently listening to?"-thread and noticed a few people talking about "SNSD", "GG", or "Girls' Generation". Little did I know that it was all the same group. Since most people just post what they're listening to and leave for a while, I didn't get any description of what SNSD was. And for some reason I didn't google it either. Then, someone posted a picture of SNSD from their Gee-era and I just had to check out their music. So yeah, I first checked out their music thanks to their appealing faces and from the moment I heard Gee and Oh! I slowly began to leave the metal-music behind and jump into the sea of kpop! I still listen to some metal occasionally, but it's 98% kpop in my hears these days.

I got into K/J-pop because of Ana.

The first song that was kpop that I listened to was Gee (I don't remember if it was from Ana's sig, or if someone said something in a thread, I dunno), and I was like "lololol this so bad", but then I watched it again, and then another time, until I had watched it for nearly half an hour, so I looked at my recommended and click the first SNSD song on there, which happened to be Paparazzi, and then I just got hooked from there.

Also, damn, you guys have been busy the past few days.

**Anakso** · 2012-12-23, 02:52 PM

Haha, Yonghwa and Seohyun are honestly the best couple xD

And have you ever heard the banmal song? That's really cute too.

Hehe, Anakso sure is busy with spreading the kpop love to fellow mmo-c members! Awesome.

Yeah, this thread kinda has bursts of activeness and then slows down for while, then repeats the burst ^^

Sure are! Love the teasing, and asking if the girl is in a "pack" sounds hilarious. x)

I don't think I've heard that song, no. I'll check it out

Edit: Damn, the cuteness!

**Asmekiel** · 2012-12-23, 08:43 PM

Since we're talking about this now, what show is this?

**Litoru** · 2012-12-23, 10:54 PM

This isn't new or anything, but I recently discovered them through EYK.
And damn. I love this song.

Not sure which one you meant, the first one is Family Outing 2 which has Yoona as a regular cast memeber. Not seen much of F02 though I think the first one was better.

The Sooyoung clip you linked, I think is from Night Star. Didn't you watch Night Star though, or did you just watch one episode or was that someone else xD They were in at least two episodes of Night Star.

Was talking about Sooyoung ye, Yoona/Taecyeon even mentions Family Outing in the intro

Never watched Night Star before, but at a quick glance, the background is the same. Thanks

Imitating Sooyoung is best Sooyoung

Damn, that's a really nice song. Thanks for sharing

**Anakso** · 2012-12-24, 12:07 AM

Hmm, must have been Majad that watched Night Star

Good show, I think Migari might have even seen a bit because Onew is in it xD

They released more teaser images, these ones are better for a lot of members imo

Taeyeons new one looks really good! No stupid hair!

**Badhairday** · 2012-12-24, 12:39 AM

I can only see the ones I saw this morning.. but maybe you meant those!

Second picture of Sunny and Taeyeon are HUGE improvements.

**Asmekiel** · 2012-12-24, 10:16 AM

Taeyeon's and Sunny's new pictures are definitely an improvement over the first, Yuri's however isn't

**Anakso** · 2012-12-24, 10:47 AM

Yoonas and Tiffanys are better too imo, and Jessicas is better just because she's closer to the camera this time
