[OMONA EXCLUSIVE] A BEGINNER'S PRIMER TO THE LADIES OF UNPRETTY RAPSTAR 2

[bunica1990.livejournal.com]

Are you excited for SMTM 4 to be over and the superior hip-hop survival show to premiere? Did you enjoy or have you at least heard of the iconic Season 1 of Unpretty Rapstar? Do you want more drama, messiness, and timeless jams? Do you want to learn more about the cast for Season 2? Or are you simply waiting for the next Lil Cham to appear and slay us all? Well, I've been procrastinating all day on YT, Instagram, and Soundcloud to give you a brief guide to the contestants on this season of Unpretty Rapstar.

This post is inspired by the amazing work leopolitan did with season 1. As they are unable to make a post for this season, I've decided to do one. I'm not super familiar with past scandals, but I do listen to some of these ladies, so if you have some tea to share, maybe you help me fill in the blanks.

PS: All the links open in a new window, so you can read while listening.

Hangzoo - Best Driver M/V

[kyokomurasaki.livejournal.com]

Hangzoo's new first solo album "BestDriver" flows like driving a car.

The album was brought together by adding a track at a time, stemming from the album title and title song "BestDriver". Hangzoo, who usually works on his lyrics in his car, did not intend to, but naturally came up with BestDriver's general vibe and the tracks' ideas and lyrics while he was driving.

even back then, sm's contracts have been referred to as 노예문서 by the media

(OP note: 노예문서 literally translates to "slave documents", so it means "slave contracts")

I saw this post roaming around online (reposted on comment sections on omona and on twitter) and figured it could be made into a post to share with everyone.

I found most of the receipts corroborating the claims here, as most of them were made into posts on here, but can't find full articles for some of the 2001 - 2007 claims--just tiny blurbs mentioning them in the whole JYJ/TVXQ kerfuffle
( EDIT: receipts under the cut )

Not that I don't believe it, but just for those who absolutely need receipts before believing something. This is still in progress but hopefully, people can help by providing links in the comment section?

Also, "Court also orders SM to pay 20 million won every time they interfere with JYJ's activities"?????
They're still fucking with JYJ's activities though??????

SHOTSLUGGER RAY: HIGHSCHOOL AND THE PURSUIT OF THE PERFECT SHOT

[cotxpaxi.livejournal.com]

Jeon Seungho, known as Shotslugger Ray, started street fashion photography in 2014. He currently publishes his photos in two Korean digital fashion magazines. He has also been featured for his own style on Hypebeast. It’s most surprising to learn that this talented photographer is a 17 year old highschool student that carries his hagwon textbooks in his bag along with his gear. Let's get to know Seungho!



To start off, please introduce yourself to our readers!
Hello! My name is Jeon Seungho and I am a street fashion photographer in Korea. I started taking pictures in Garosu-gil in March 2014. I upload my photos to my personal blog and I also contribute to Musinsa. On the weekdays, I am an ordinary highschool student!

You're a highschool student!? How did you get into street photography?
Up until middle school, I was a regular student who simply had a lot of interest in fashion. When I was a freshman, some of my friends and I hung out in Garosu-gil for my birthday and suddenly a street fashion photographer approached us to take a picture. After getting my picture taken, I just thought it would be fun to take the pictures myself. So for about a month, I started shooting in Garosu-gil every weekend. I enjoyed it a lot, so I continued to take street fashion pictures ever since!

South Korean Government Removes 48 Speakers Blasting Girls' Generation & Big Bang At The Border

[mspopstar.livejournal.com]

Meet South Korea's latest weapons in their 67-year-old turf war with the north--Girls' Generation and Big Bang.
Though the 48 speakers blasting K-pop, along with anti-North Korea propaganda in the demilitarized zone that divides North and South Korea have been taken down as of Tuesday morning local time, the unique tactic appears to have had a major effect.

Originally prompted by two South Korean soldiers badly injured by a North Korean box mine, the supersized PA system and the resulting backlash it caused led to the first exchange of artillery and rocket fire across the border in five years on Friday the New York Times reports.

Netizens discuss top 5 best looking male idols 💎👬🎤

[punkylana.livejournal.com]

Netizens on Pann gather to discuss which male idols they deem the most handsome and best-looking.

Originally posted on Pann, netizens discuss the top five best-looking male idols in k-pop.

Titled, “Personal Choices of Top 5 Male Idols,” here is the direct translation of the post and comments below.

“I didn’t include BIG BANG T.O.P, INFINITE L and ZE:A Lim Siwan because I’ve always thought they’re on top. So these top 5 are not including T.O.P, L, and Siwan because they’re already too known to be good looking. These top 5 are not in specific order.”

4 Male Idols Who Aren’t Good-Looking But Have Attractive Appeal(Someones Personal Picks)

[jrt131n.livejournal.com]

Netizens discuss a list of male idols who are not handsome but have attractive appeal.

Originally posted on Pann, netizens discuss male idols who aren’t handsome but have attractive appeals.
Titled “Male Idols Who Aren’t Handsome But Full of Attractive Appeals,” here is the direct translation of the post and comments below.

“I’m a die hard fan of JYJ Kim Jaejoong who is protecting the country right now~ <3 I hope he remains healthy.”
“I think there are many idols who aren’t handsome but full of unique and attractive appeal T_T”



1. BTS’s Rap Monster

“When I saw his proportions, I thought he was at least 185 cm but I was shocked to hear that he is only 180cm. When you look at his face, he isn’t necessarily handsome but he looks sexy. His voice is also sexy as well hahahaha”


2. BTOB’s Seo Eunkwang

“He has the randomness and talent in the group. His voice is so clear and nice. I was shocked to see how good of a singer he was… His personality is good too, getting along with everyone in the group. I guess it has to do with being the leader who can get along with everyone T_T”

3. INFINITE’s Sungkyu aka Grandpa Hamster ^_^

“His voice too T_T He isn’t a pretty boy and has small features in his face so he isn’t the face girls would go crazy over (apologies) hahahahaha He was so cute on variety programs and I think he will be tall in real life”

4. VIXX’s Leo(pst...is my bias showing?)
