EXID Is Next to Star in Their Very Own Reality Show “Showtime”

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

Girl group EXID has been chosen as the next group star in their very own reality show “Showtime!”

On June 8, a representative of MBCEvery1’s “Showtime” confirmed, “EXID will be featured as the stars of season five of ‘Showtime.’”

“Showtime,” which first premiered in 2013 with EXO as the main group, has passed on the baton to many other popular groups including BEAST, A Pink, and SISTAR.

Since the group’s music chart reversal with their hit track “Up & Down,” EXID has become trending idols in the industry, even reaching number one on public broadcast music programs.

The first episode of EXID’s “Showtime” is expected to hit the air around the beginning of July. Are you looking forward to it?

yay exid!!!

wait why did the subber quit??? 💀

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

idk he tweeted this https://twitter.com/EXID_Storage/status/607538034842533888 and deleted EVERY subbed video ;_; all i understand is that theres been some kind of internal drama in the korean fandom and hes boycotting exid until he gets a response from yedang ent

but like hes kind of a drama queen and has quit the fandom for no reason before only to come back within a week so fingers crossed lmao

[kevinmchale.livejournal.com]

um......... what could this internal drama be about???

oh well exid showtime will be too good he won't be able to resist lbr

when will your faves

I still don't really understand the drama that happened with exid storage

I hope someone else picks it up....

'twas the person subbing all of EXID's stuff as of this morning :/ the only person.

apparently korean exid fans don't like that international exid fans can enjoy their vids as well so they contacted yedang and yedang blocked exid storage? i took one for the team and visited onehallyu for this piece of info lol

Re: when will your faves

[iznanassi.livejournal.com]

I didn't understand EXID Storage's tweets but oh my god............................................... that makes a lot more sense.

[rightclick5ave.livejournal.com]

what the fuck that's so selfish... ((and i love your icon eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeps ♥))

Re: when will your faves

[torontok.livejournal.com]

WTF
I will never understand this mindset.Do they not want EXID to be more popular? Do they not realize that i-fans buys albums, stream and vote as well? Fuck this bullshit.

Re: when will your faves

[seroquels.livejournal.com]

That's gotta be one of THE MOST ignorant, xenophobic things I've heard in awhile. Besides the cockroach and "traitor Chinese" shit that is.

Re: when will your faves

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

i hope it's just exid storage being overdramatic or he was trolled because what kind of fans are so selfish and vile to deny their fave success and other fellow fans support

Re: when will your faves

[seroquels.livejournal.com]

This! Like it makes no sense that you wouldn't want your faves to be successful globally. I hope it's someone trolling or just a misunderstanding.

bless you tbh

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

ready for exid's reign

i've watched many butbut episodes unsubbed -- i will not be deterred!

[lainmyownworld.livejournal.com]

do these showtimes have good ratings?

[moomoo-moonstar.livejournal.com]

Much as I like EXID, at this point I'm kinda wishing they just took a day off. Feels like their workload's been insane ever since they hit it big. Like even by idol standards.

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

ita and they announced today that their cb originally scheduled for september is being moved up to august which is so unnecessary

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

i read it was the end of august so it could be worse? :(

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

oh really? it might just be a few weeks difference then but still, since up & down only came out last august that means it'll be their 4th comeback in a single year...

[revertigo.livejournal.com]

haha i was going to ask what was their 3rd comeback, but it's up&down x 2. and damn this year is going by so fast.

i don't know how much of their reality show is work-work or filmed ahead but i do hope they get at least four weeks off between july and august and then the holidays off. i just want that bruise/cut on solji's leg to properly heal because i swear i still see it

[mamamoos.livejournal.com]

wow i didn't know they were coming back already

[dickslikejesus.livejournal.com]

I love EXID, and I'm pretty sure they probably don't want a break right now. They took like a two year run of a hiatus including an urge to get out of their label (which they did) and openly expressed unhappiness. I'm pretty sure they're hype to be able to see their hard work pay off.

Also it's mostly Hani with the busy schedule, and she's basically just under the Jackson territory from last year, but she also seemed overjoyed about it similar to how he was.

[miwa201.livejournal.com]

yay! but also boo at no possible subbing. i can't watch unsubbed shows. hopefully exid storage comes back.

and i don't get people complaining about their current workload. they need this. obviously i wish they'd take a break too (esp hani and solji, whose voice is becoming a mess) but they have to establish themselves with the general public. snsd didn't take a single break during 2009-2010. aoa had three comebacks last year (jan - july - oct). every up coming group needs to work constantly (i wish yg would realize this with winner sigh)

[mamamoos.livejournal.com]

yeah i feel you i'm sure they're really glad for the work tbh i just hope they take care of themselves properly

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

i dont agree tbh, i do think groups have to be constantly active but 4 comebacks in a year is too intense. i wish theyd put off their comeback for just a month longer and focus on variety appearances instead especially the lesser known members like hyerin so they could maintain public recognition while giving hani and solji a few seconds to breathe

[kaykaydelight.livejournal.com]

Hani barely sings live tho. She is a backtrack queen ala Soyeon.

[aleksu7.livejournal.com]

Nah, she used to sing live quite good but lately her voice is really bad. I think is that in the long hiatus she didn't practice very much or something, meanwhile Hyerin really improved in that long hiatus thanks to Solji. Anyway the really need a break.I'm quite worried about the August comeback tbh.

[torontok.livejournal.com]

I was screaming YAAAAAAAAAAAAAS till I saw the new about EXID Storage..... I hope someone else picks this up, I need to see my girls being precious and funny.
Worst comes to worst, maybe Leggos can scrape together enough funds to hire EXO subbers, they're amazing

[huanyia.livejournal.com]

I'm really happy for them because of more exposure, but they seem overworked and like many other commenters, i-fans can't enjoy these shows without English subs :(
I want next season to be Bangtan!!

[aleksu7.livejournal.com]

Hope someone would sub this,cause girls are hilarious
