Date: 2015-03-31 12:02 am (UTC)their japanese agency is doing great job tbh
the only thing i can complain about is how pavked theie schedule is, two events or more per day, usually in different city... they barely had time to rest. they promoted this single for a short while only, like today or tomorrow they wil be back in korea? not counting the sort of pre-promo they did in feb on fam events. I get why kiss ent decided to get them as much events as possible but giving their busan concert is happening this week so i wonder how they'll make it. esp minhyuk who is sadly amazing with putting too much pressure on himself and stuff like not even allowing his injuries heal properly.
