Gyu was the cutest MC omg.

And the interactions between Hakyeon and him were the best <3

[obscurajae.livejournal.com]

Yes, now I can watch this again with better subs!

Gyu was frickin adorable, my gosh <3 I knew as soon as I saw that VIXX was there that he and N would be bonding over their leader struggles T_T

[yohan94.livejournal.com]

my two favs <3 they were so cute

[forsureyoudo.livejournal.com]

vixx is trash af for making fun of N's skin.

[lostnoodle0317.livejournal.com]

aside from vixx's unsurprising stab at their leader's skin colour, gyu and n are such gems

gyu is me during every grade school presentation ^^;;;

I really liked Defcon in this episode he usually stands back and doesn't say much but he stepped it up now that he's the main host.

Is it blocked for everyone else or is it just because I'm in Korea?

I hope that works for you.

sunggyu looks divine

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

He has his grandpa hair on imo but he's so cute and precious here it doesn't even bother me.

[ironicmustache.livejournal.com]

i usually hate the middle part on idols, but for some reason i always think he looks real good with it.

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

There was an event where Sunggyu and Hoya had that tragic middle part. I think it's the Pepsi event. I was planning on doing a post about it but It was torture to find pictures where they don't look like grandpas. The things I do for these boys.

omg gyuzizi

[merely-a-facade.livejournal.com]

so. much. third. hand. embarassment. i love it & wouldn't have it any other way!

*third hand embarassment bc i'm sure the everyone (cameramen, cordis, managers, etc) who were there felt embarrassed; the editing team; and finally, the viewers LOL

Re: omg gyuzizi

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

I had to watch several versions of these scenes to find the best subs (and one that translated the card about Myungsoo). Can you imagine the torture.

Re: omg gyuzizi

[merely-a-facade.livejournal.com]

you are a saint OP <3

[bomsnose.livejournal.com]

Sunggyu was really cute yet unbearably awkward as an MC. I wish they had someone who can do without the script for longer than him. SNSD is obviously too far above this level, but in my dreams someone from there is the replacement... Out of the Weekly Idol regulars maybe Ilhoon looks like he could improvise the most? Idk.

That being said, I never would've heard about Leo's dual life otherwise, so thanks Sunggyu lol Also maybe he's much better in the following episode, assuming he actually had more than 5 mins to prepare...

edit: can that be that there are 2 of the same embed vids? maybe just my browser, but i only see part 1/3 twice here. i did go to youtube to watch part 2/3 and 3/3 as well, so found them all.

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

Yes, it's actually normal, because both scenes happen in part 1/3 and they had the best subs imo. I don't know if you're on your phone or your pc, but because I wanted to have an lj cut for the Leo scene, and one for N/Sunggyu's bonding time. On phones, the LJ cuts' titles don't show up so that's why it looks weird.

[bomsnose.livejournal.com]

Aaah, thanks for the explanation. Tbh I browse from phone and pc half-half, now I was only on pc, yet skipped the cut texts entirely, just clicking without reading. Whoops

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

I really don't like how the phone layout is. Like, I don't know if it's just my phone, but I can't see the Vine embedded but it works perfectly fine on pc.

Or like, on Dongwoo's Birthday post, I put the title of each members' answer to the question "Dongwoo is a ____ person" in their respective lj cut title. Since I wanted people on their phone to still know why i chose these pics, I repeated the answer inside the cut, but that can be redundant for people on pc who can see the LJ cut. :/

[bomsnose.livejournal.com]

Same here, I also can't Vines.

Hopefully LJ revises their phone layouts soon... Must be a hassle to make the cuts mobile-proof.

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

It's already a hassle to do the posts, let alone make it mobile-proof. XD I spend quite some time on some of these posts, and then I remember I have to make it understandable for mobile users, cue more editing and revising. lol So I'm thankful when people take the time to comment, it makes my day.

[classicfire.livejournal.com]

Ikr? I was surprised at him being a friendly guy and seeking out people to hang out with.

[bomsnose.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it was fun. I was partly rooting for Leo's distant guy image to be kept, I mean if he wants to keep a public persona, why not? lol But Sunggyu knows no mercy, expose all the friendly meetups.

[hilary-faye.livejournal.com]

2 angels meet at last. I know I'm incredibly biased but I thought Gyu was a fun host. The reading off the script thing was good for a laugh and he is charming as hell and adaptable which is why he's so good for variety, Defconn did well too I wasn't sure how it'd work without Dony.

[wishesgranted.livejournal.com]

I appreciate the cuts of the rap battle. I love Gyu and N so much, and I didn't have to deal with trying to sift through the colorist bullshit to find the good parts.

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

It would have been a shame to miss on the gems that were N/Sunggyu interactions because of the bullshit.

[tegawa.livejournal.com]

T_T this was fab

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

The only two people I need in life, please don't ever disappoint me, Angels! They embarrass me, terribly, and make me laugh. Will Gyu continue to MC or was he just there for that episode?

Also, I have been laughing at that Vine way longer than I thought I would. Guy's such a cutie!

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

Sunggyu is also gonna be in the episode featuring Twice!

Someone brought the idea that maybe they initially wanted Sunggyu to be a permanent MC replacing Doni until he comes back, but since Sunggyu is filming Showtime, they went for the switching with several guest MCs. Who knows.

[lycorisc.livejournal.com]

my 2 faves from these groups meet

[sub-divided.livejournal.com]

This episode was the best, all the best to Dony but he can take a little more time off lmao.

Though it was lucky VIXX, a group who know the format for Weekly Idol and are comfortable with the MCs, were the first group up.

[she-devil666.livejournal.com]

pretty surprised at the comments i'm seeing tbh
