what's the best k-pop ballad?

Mine would have to be:

[BHD]

If we could count other asians my vote would probably go to Echoes by Alan.

[Kagdar]

I have a lot...let me just list randomly.

Hot Issue
Huh
Mirror Mirror
Volume Up
What's Your Name?
Whatcha Doin' Today
Muzik
I My Me Mine
Ready Go

I'd probably either go with Mirror Mirror or Whatcha Doin' Today as my favorite, though.

Except for Mirror Mirror and What's Your Name? we have the same list! You should add Heart to Hearth
My favorite would be Volume Up.

[Anakso]

Volume up is my favourite too.

Best ballad? Baby Steps

[BHD]

[Anakso]

There you go.

[Anakso]

Thanks! Will watch once this lecture is over

I kind of like Holler and the mini, but not as much as Twinkle unfortunately. I like it about the same, single-wise, as Mr.Mr.

Speaking of singles, May J's recent one sold like 16,000. That's higher than any of her previous singles and all but one of her albums. Interested to see how her album does when it drops on 10/1. Let it Go was the bet thing to happen to her. It's nice to see someone I stan for so long getting success.

[Anakso]

I love it!

Far better title thank twinkle! My favorite song on the album so far is a tie between only u and adrenaline.

10/1 as in 10th of jan? That's seems like a long time away. Or did you mean 1st of October?

I liked Stay a lot more than I thought I would too
And whisper is really good in contrast with the rest of the album.

Adrenaline showcase perf.

CJEN just uploaded a MV by a Chinese girl group and it's actually good



Well they're speaking Chinese anyway, might be a Korean girl group. Kpop seems to be going into China the same way they went into Japan ages ago so might be seeing a lot more stuff like this in the future.

Holler MV is quite good. The only thing though is i keep picturing Seohyn laughing everytime she do a sexy move. It's so unnatural for her to act sexy she doesn't seem comfortable doing it. Like when she did hey aegyo, no unnatural she just have to laugh at the end.

[Anakso]

What group is "If I Were You" from?

No idea, probably some over rated group with one member that looks like a mannequin another that is taking after her, one ugly member that everyone calls beautiful for some reason and one decent rapper that everyone thinks is the queen even though that title was taken long before she came on the scene.

Ha yea agreed.
SNSD have asked to do sexy concepts before but never been allowed, I'm guessing Seohyun was happy with that xD

Sistar? o:

Sistar? o:

Ha! Poor Sistar
I don't think many people call Hyorin attractive, or Bora the queen and she barely gets any lines anyway and Soyou and Dasam might benefit from some plastic tbh. Well more so Dasom than Soyou but still.

but you like taeyeon so everything you just said is redundant

Such a bandwagon hater Mig ;-;
Taeyeon is awesome so of course I like her.

[Rivellana]

Sistar? o:

I thought he was referring to 2ne1, although I'd be unsure which was one was the ugly member and which one was taking after the mannequin. o.O

I'm definitely going to have to watch that TTS video after my husband leaves for work. He has the TV on and both of our computers are in the same room so I can't put music on unless I wear a headset.

[Anakso]

Dara is the ugly one and Minzy is taking after Bom.

[Rivellana]

Dara is the ugly one and Minzy is taking after Bom.

If you really considered Dara "ugly" I'd be very concerned about your tastes. o.O She's my least favorite, for sure, but she's not ugly.

Some K-pop stars might be less attractive than other ones, but I'm not sure many of them are actually anything even close to "ugly".

[Anakso]

Well, she's less attractive than the normal K-pop standard. Would be better way to put it xD

Just think of it this way...
