Only for Korean things I swear hahahaha

(You’ve been saying that since day one lmao)

Ugh I think I streamed it on Kiss-asian actually, so I don’t know what or where she gets the adds, but they’re in Korean. I think YT though… I probably watched some stuff on YT whilst I was there hehe. But I didn’t ask.
(I don’t get ads anywhere. Except naver. Cos that’s apparently the only site my adblocks don’t work pffffft)

(hahaha okay… 😛 )

(well Kiss asian was fine with my adblocks, and then it was like ‘nyah you can’t watch anything with adblocks anymore’ so I stopped going on there as well, and now it’s been shut down due to copyright infringement lol. So doesn’t work anyway)

Yes that counts hahaha. We missed you lots and I thought of you every time Hongki or the Saico posted a fancam of a concert on their inst. 😛

Ahhh I should’ve googled ‘Park In Seo Winner” then; that would’ve come up with something.
Why so many nicknames hahaha BBC’s just have Bees 😛 much simpler.
(Yeah the RM thing confused @obsessedmuch when I started talking about BOTH in the same convo… woops. Should just use Namjoon from now one hehe)

Hahahaha I like quizzes though… and I’m competitive. I just feel like I’d only be learning things to get good marks on the quiz and not because I want to! haha

I figured as much. Been praying for you, it’s all good.
Oh… weird fandom stuff… yay… not -.-
(Pffffffft ah man I feel like that happens a lot with acronyms hehe)

Hehehe exactly. You want me to get into them properly! Good idea.
Yeah and I’ve decided that today is not a Kpop day because it will just make me annoyed. :/

(Pffahahaha you will never be over that will you? 😛 )

I hope so too. Might get of DB now for a bit. Paint. Or watch AOY idk… erghk. xx

Jimin is the guy who stripped in BTS vs Block B battle?<<< YES THAT.
And no it wouldn't really haha. Just know Jimin apparently has no jams. We don't know why. 😛

Awww I'm a sunbae hehehe *repping since June 2016 waddup*

I mean… yes… they can be classy. I don't think that's what I was saying … Stage performance is one part of a whole. Like Zico. I guess I was just remembering Hoonie and Mino trolling fans in the Island MV and Yoonie and his Ballet Parking… kekeke
OMONA SO I DIDN'T EVEN READ THE REST OF YOUR PARAGRAPHY BEFORE TYPING THAT^ And we both used Zico as an example hehe. Zico's stage presence is part of him though. Which actually reminds me of a big long thing I was gonna send you about Jiyong and also our perception of idols and stage names, but it's only half written so, uh, look forward to that?! hehe

Probably why Shawol is used more 😛

Yeah I bet we will -.- hahahaha
(Imagine an actual pink panda though… irl)

That’s such a weird thing. Cool but weird. *wishes when she watched that wasn’t so long ago because she’s forgotten like everything that happened in that show except for the bit that made her cry, ET references and the red carpet ending* *woops*

Hahahahahahaha ahhh rambly obsessedmuch has arrived 😛 kekeke
Classy dorks, and one swaggy dork… I like that. What does that make the rest of Block B? And also FTIsland? Block b are… they sort of all have swag? It’s more like… I don’t know… the kind of energy you find in a circus. Swaggy clowns? Idk where this is going… now I’m the one rambling.

Yes those!! I had not forgotten… I had just sort of, put it on the backburner haha. Oooh goodness I have no idea. I hope not, but realistically, probably.
I found a really old one of Kaybee’s and I’s the other week and bought that back… that was funny.

(Oooh like that one in Introverted Boss, and Jiyong wears on at one point- but PINK! That’d be cool. I’m gonna put one of those in my Korean Female Rock Band drama for no reason.)

Ahhh yes I do remember the juvenile exchanges hahaha
Yeah… I really need to rewatch it… *sigh*

They’re just rock stars through and through, right? So maybe… Rock star dorks?
So then we’d have Classy Dorks, Swaggy Clown Dorks and Rock Star Dorks.
I like that line up but I’m still not sure haha

Ah a little I think! But it was one of our crazy threads where we talked entirely withing **s so… yeah.

(Slowly but surely…/ I actually drafted part of it in my head… but then it sort of turned into a ‘adopted daughter of a crime lord’ drama and I don’t know if I want them to be the same thing or not )

Oh by the way, I watched the Baby Baby MV. And it made me sad.
Kinda embodies everything I think about when it comes to fame and that kind of thing, and if you need an aesthetic to go with my ‘the world is a drug’ poem, that MV fits preeety closely.
And also like that song is just amazing on so many levels, and I want Namtae to write something like that again cos holy shit. I don’t even know what genre that is… I should but I don’t.

Hahaha I like that idea. We must share with Kaybee when she gets on. I feel like she’d be good at this kind of thing.

*we talked like* *this* *for over ten comments* *pfffffft*

(I KNOW! That’s why I’m not sure if I want it to be the same thing or not. At the moment it’s ‘Girl adopted by crime lord just wants to start a band and have a normal college life but her crime lord grandfather wants her to inherit his money and men and well “business” when he dies’ and then it gets even more complicated with side stories and love interests… I get carried away sometimes hahahaha It’s still new in development, ok? There will most likely be two very different dramas at the end of this… I hope…)

How about IS my favourite? Hehe Really Really being second at this point I think.
It’s stunning, although that’s to be expected from YG.
“The song seems too close to the truth/life they live…”
Ahhhhh shit. I just looked up the lyrics and what with just reading those of Runaway… now I feel like crying noooo.
I have a list now. Of songs that are too accurate (to them, to me) and hurt my heart. Baby Baby (Winner), Super Star (Jiyong), Runaway (Bobby), Anti (Zico) and The Last (Suga) ngggggghhhhh there’s probably more but that’s all for now.
Mmmmmm… pretty sure he did. Pour it all out that is.
I’m sure he will… he’s too talented not to haha.

(please cos now I have a lot of feels)

Oh noes! Did you remember it all?

Hehehehe woops… I mean, ah, yes, it means… er… *blanks*

(Hahaha I know, I know and thanks. I do this a lot though. I play around with story ideas in my head. Sometimes they’re full finished stories… sometimes they’re not.)

Ahhhh I always think I’ve listened to all of someone’s songs, and then I remember that Spotify has a lot but not all. Listening to those now. What album are they on?
Really Really is so catchy… I get it stuck in my head a lot haha.
I remember really liking Pricked. And another of theirs but I can’t remember the name and I can’t even remember what I have and haven’t listened too so I’m just gonna go do that. So far I really like Different.

Ah… I didn’t have time. I was too late anyway. But I had a shower. I think that helped idk. Probably not since I slept badly and had to get up early cos work breakfast this morning, and then when I arrived at the cafe, some random held the door open for me and asked me if I was alright – like sheeeeeeeet do I really look THAT bad? Crivens.
What I really need to do is go for a walk but it’s been raining all week and is miserable out there. Ergh.

Lyfe, yes but some of the deepest darkest parts of life. Or else they’re just life experiences that resonate very soundly with me. And they echo my exact thoughts on fame and entertainment and how hard it must be for them, and how horrible it is sometimes, and how I feel like there’s a disconnect between fans and the stage, even when the artists themselves are screaming these sorts of things.
Super Star is nice… well ok, nice is maybe not the right word, but musically I think it’s nice haha. Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01qFNY_l1AQ

And yes! Fear is on that vein too… The feels have not left… yay. -.-

Well… at lot has happened in the last 4 hrs… hahaha woops.

Hahaha aww I love that you know my bedtime… that’s so cute. What time is it there? My bedtime deadline?

(Well now that you’ve got me talking about my writing more, you’re likely to get some of that! And I actually like talking about it… cos sometimes how stories start is really weird… awww how long are their half lives? Are they uranium? *bad joke*
What sorts of ideas are they?)

Oh well, that makes me feel better haha. I haven’t seen nearly any of their variety though… woops.
So that album is on Spotify… I just for some reason didn’t listen to it before? *shrugs*
Awww that kind of sucks. Why’d YG want Empty instead?
… You should also listen to their ‘Go Up’- that was the song they made for the finale of Who Is Next and it has so many feels about what they feel about competing with their brothers..

Ahahaha the R/L pronunciation mix up, in any non native English speaker, is quite hilarious and adorable. I also find it interesting that it is not just the Japanese and the Koreans that struggle with it (because they only have one sound and it’s a mix between the two) but also some Europeans mix them up. I
wonder what it is about that tongue shape that people struggle with.
Yeahp! Sure is!
Will update you more on what I like when I’ve listened to more and know them more. Am still too new hehe.
Ooooh did you have fun with that? Sounds like a really pleasant day.

No, no, you were right the first time! A work breakfast. My work has them cos apparently it’s too hard to have dinners and nobody wants to go out? Which doesn’t really make an awful lot of sense to me, but oh well. So breakfasts it is!
Although now that you mention it maybe getting up early and going to a cafe to work would be a good idea sometimes. Get me out of the house, treat myself, try get some writing done hmm… maybe when I’m less poor… haha

All good suggestions. Now I just have to do them… ahhh see that’s why I like walks preferably with @burgundy because someone is there to hold me accountable. Otherwise it’s too easy to let the depression win *sigh* *ani. you can do it. hwaiting. himnae*

Mmmm same. Gosh… that just made me think of the goosebumps you’d get from ANTI live… O.o
Oooh really? Interesting… although… like… in what way? Idk, when I read the lyrics it seemed quite personal, but I guess one can be inspired by something and still write something personal. Duh.
Probably a good idea. I can’t really handle any comment sections right now… and I’m dreading BTS’ comeback for that very reason even though the song sounds good… D:

What did I listen to today… Jiyong this morning- mix of sad and hype.
Then FTIsland on the way home from the breakfast. That was nice.
More FTIsland when I went into town again. And Bobby’s album again this morning to get more of a feel to it and honestly, surprisingly I’ve had I Love You on repeat!!! Hehehe.

1/2 Yes, watching TLAHL, making Ramen, getting dessert, replying to endless DB threads hehehe, getting burgundy into DB… etc etc… 😛

Hahahahahaha ofc I do… that’s the sign I should be in bed already! But I don’t go!!! Cos I’m silly~!!

(:D 😀 😀 Yay!!! And let me know if there is a specific story you want me to ramble about hehe… HAahaha well at least you laughed… 😛 😀
I have this urge to cultivate those ideas… but if you don’t want to you don’t have too, my inner writer is just itchy hahahaha)

Wooo. Go Winner!
(Ahhh… see I do kind of understand those comments because BTS did come from smalI company and it’s hard to get to where they have off the back of a small company, they’ve done incredibly well.
I do think YG has money and can pour that into their groups for sure, and they know how to make popular things, with polished performances and good producers and writers behind it all, which is often a guaranteed success (at least now it is- Blackpink for example)
But, that being said, knowing what I know now about the industry, I don’t think anybody has it ‘easy’. And from my observations of Winner… they seem sort of niche among international fans? Like the fans that follow them recognise that they’re something unique and amazing, and they do well, but they never seem to be as viral as some groups? But I haven’t really gathered enough mental stats on that… just that Winner seems to do well where they are because they’re Winner and not because of YG.
(That being said imo, even though I want all my boys to do well, I almost prefer that Block B and FTI aren’t as well known EVERYWHERE as BTS cos that means less fans to be nasty, and more community feel. Ofc, it also means people are missing out on a good thing but oh well haha)

They do yeah! I can’t remember who it was… I think a native Portuguese speaker- who mixed them up. (So actually a Brazilian, but their first language is European by root)

A bit different yes haha. No, not awkward. We’re all sassy bookish librarians and we all get along well hahaha.

Ugh… depends. on the day. I still haven’t started waking up early regularly. It’s bad actually. Another symptom of depression (Sorry do I talk about this too much? idk… *is suddenly self conscious*) is either you sleep too little or too much…
BUT sometimes even when I think I sleep in it’s only ever till like 8:30… hahaha.

*Sico… pronounced like Zico I presume… I like this new nickname a lot alot hehehe ♥ ♥ ♥ *

Ahhh cool (wise move lol) Mmm I can see that though… like how we were saying those songs have similar themes in them, because I think a lot of the artists in kpop feel the same thing sometimes, and just some of them write about it. So it makes sense that it’d resonate with him? “living in CCTV” hmmm such a good sad line.

1/2 I don’t know!?! Maybe?/ I did have all of last week off? Maybe that was it.
I also just discovered that one of your threads and our convos has 165 comments… 😛
Ahhh- it depends! If it’s about writing or something I’m passionate about I won’t shut up. But I don’t get energy from other people or talking, (actually, too much of too many people drains me really fast)and my best friends and I can do nothing and be in the same room and that’s fine.
So I can talk lots. But then I can go ages without talking either. 😛

(Ani! You are never to old to cultivate that! Never too old. Tsk tsk.
You do sort of have to WANT to do it though. It’s not something that should be forced. Encouraged yes, and pushed yes (cos writers are serial procrastinators) but you can’t force creativity…
Dude… I AM a writer and I rarely read at the moment! Although I miss it. Haha
You could write a novel hehehe please do come see me if you ever have the inkling to :P)

Lol wat Winner? Talentless? What kind of bullshit is that? *haters are so irrational*
I’m almost glad? They’re so far ahead? That the only other group that is on the same wavelength of popularity is EXO? Cos I’m so glad I don’t have to deal with them VS anyone else. And even then the AMRY vs EXO-L thing is so silly haha.
Niche, casual but classy. That’s Winner hahaha
Dude really? YES! That’s the kind of fanbase you want. Who cares about the views, we’re all here for the music anyway. Views is not the only form of support.
Mmmm exactly.
*squints at Zico’s haters though*

Hahaha! We are preety cool if I do say so myself 😛
AHAHAHA no! I do not. But I think I suit them? Idk I’ve tried on mum’s before. And I have a lazy eye so I’ll probably end up wearing them one day since I’m long sighted.

Okay… that’s good. Thank you. No I think sometimes I just need to vent/ writing has always helped me process things so typing it out to you probably helps like that for sure.

Was it?>?? I might’ve missed it?! Either way I like it a lot! Hehehe

But not everyone does. In fact… it’s sometimes sort of taboo to delve so deep like that. The Last for example, almost straight up mentions suicide.
I don’t really think it’s normal anywhere to be honest. It takes a lot of strength to put something like that out to the world in any culture.

Awww the things that hook us in, eh. (Hee I loved the SMTM stage… :P)
Hahahaha! That’s cute. Oh man, it’s like Walking in the Rain by Block B! On their last WI episode UKwon started this stupid as dance to it that they all instantly mimicked and so for ayges I couldn’t take the song seriously cos I’d always just see them meme dancing to it! And then I read the lyrics and I was like GUYS THIS IS SUCH A SAD SONG WHY ARE YOU MEME DANCING TO IT hahaha

Now I want to go watch Winner on WI

These past two days have been horrible so I hope if gets better.
Noooo not really. Both of these have pretty broad specs so I can kinda do whatever I want.

V is friends with everyone in the acting and idol industry apparently. And probably other industries too hehehe He just makes friends with everything, cats, dogs, small children… flowers 😛

Oh yes… it did… pffffffffffft. *smh*

Well no, like Winner songs, and then, Bobby songs. So not really MOBB, since there are actually no MOBB songs ON that playlist, even though I love MOBB.
So it’s 4/4 or 5/5 since it has older Winner stuff in it, and so far 1/7 of iKon… 😛 SO FAR. IT’S NEW. IT WILL GET MORE.
Oh look at you hehehe

(my purple haired character…)

Ooh. Fire and Island… and interesting combination. Not something I would of thought of before.
I will check them more out tomorrow because I need bed now.
(Awake is a solo Jin song of the Wings album. Which is a good album btw, you should check it out some time)

tODAY, Tueday is so far better so that’s nice… 🙂 *hugs back* thank you. ANd sorry for like ‘oh today was shit, but no now it’s better’ updates… hope you don’t mind.
Also, I will say it here, do you think DNA sounds sort of very YG esque? Idk why I thought that just now, but the chorus reminds me of Blackpink and the bridge sounds GDragon-y… or is that just me?

Yeahp! Bon Voyage S1 (a summer special variety thing Bighit does for just BTS) in Sweden, he got lost on a challenge by himself, and instead of being worried he was busy appreciating the wild flowers 😛 hehe
Hwarang. Not Moonlovers thank goodness. Although neither was very good! Although I actually though V did a very good job of his small role in Hwarang. The writing was kinda average but he acted it very well.
Baekhyun from EXO was in ML. V and Baek are sometimes compared in looks a lot. I don’t know why I’m telling you this but oh well.
When I can BTS info dump I will I guess haha

🙂
Ahaha! I’ve seen that episode of RM! They were super shy but also vry cute.

(and when you do you must tell me what you think, ofc…)

Okay! I will hehehe thanks for the support.
OH hahah I forgot where this thread went so I’ll just tell you here… you know the landline I lost? Well my brother found it. It was outside… it rained two days ago… so it might be dead for good lmaoooo!!! Thought you’d appreciate that

Hahaha that’s ok. 😛
Despite it growing on me a lot since then, last night, even though I listened to it and Best of Me several times on repeat, I still had Island by Winner stuck in my head before going to sleep… hahaha

He is a bit of a precious strange child sometimes. He actually gets called 4D by lots of people (members included) but he doesn’t really like being called that. I think it’s because he just thinks about things very differently from everyone else on the team and has a lot of quirks. He’s really a darling though. Seriously, wouldn’t even hurt a literal fly because he said ‘life is precious’ (happened on a VLive lol)
LMAOOO! How on earth did he manage that?!?!?! That’ hilarious.

*tries to remember anything about hwarang* *i mean… wat?* 😛 😛
You dropped it but you watched the dying scene??? LOL!
Idk, must be a rite of passage or something. Fun fact about Baek’s dying scene: Apparently LJK had to give him acting and dying directing tips because the actual director didn’t tell Baek anything… -.-
Hahahaha deal! Speaking of Block B, all this BTS is making me miss them for some reason.
Also apparently even Korean BBCs are starting to comment on sites and stuff that they miss Block B like crazy and just WHEN IS THEIR COMEBACK 7S? I mean really, too many hints and not enough actual info 🙁

Haven’t seen Mix and Match… why don’t you like him?
Bobby is a such an adorable thing. Which is hilarious cos on stage he’s like Energy and Swag pumped up x100, when in reality he still has his stuffed Pooh Bear from when he was a kid. Ahhh people who are juxtapositions, I love it.
