[undeniablysarah.livejournal.com]

( Once you TaemIN you can't TaemOUT )

1) Taemin has been spotted in LA.
( Evidence )

2) Dancers tend to have big mouths...
( Open me )

3) So what can we expect?
( Open me )

With so much speculation in the air there is no telling what the future has in store for our master and savior Lee Taemin! What do you guys think? When will we be graced by our loving and caring overlord?

YOOCHUN SOLO DEBUT!!!

[sand-nicky.livejournal.com]

Park Yuchun, first solo album ‘How Much Love Do You Have in Your Purse’ preview…
“A gift for fans”



Park Yuchun releases his first solo album since debut.

Park Yuchun’s management agency CJeS Entertainment revealed, “Park Yuchun has been confirmed to release his first solo album ‘How Much Love Do You Have in Your Purse’ on the 18th. The solo album which will be on presales from the 8th onwards is Park Yuchun’s first mini album since his debut in 2004 and has a total of 6 tracks.”

They added, “Park Yuchun recorded this album during his spare time before his enlistment and it is like his gift to fans this winter.”

Park Yuchun’s mini album ‘How Much Love Do You Have in Your Purse’ which is set to be released on the 18th contains the little stories of our everyday lives and the heartfelt message which Park Yuchun wanted to say to his fans without missing out a word but was not able to do so all this while because he was shy.

In the title track, ‘How Much Love Do You Have in Your Purse’, a gentle piano melody, Park Yuchun’s mild voice stands out in the lyrical atmosphere of the ballad title track. Also, the title track includes the live version of his self-composed song which he presented to fans at the 2013 Tokyo Dome stage, ‘Walking With Her In Spring…’, a sad ballad singing about a reminisce and songs which carry the messages he wants to convey to fans about them staying by his side for a long time.

Yuki, Japan’s new age pianist and emotional vocalist, Yozoh’s particpation in this album has especially hyped up the atmosphere and gained attention.

According to one of the officials, “Before his enlistment, he spent his days being occupied with drama and movie filming, so he was concerned about giving the fans a gift and the opportunity came for him to release a solo album for the first time. Because he normally favors and enjoyably listens to Indie music and accoustic genre, Park Yuchun presents his favorite genres in this album without holding back. The lyrics are infused with the stories of the precious people to him and his values about the world. This album is expected to receive warm response particularly from overseas fans. This winter, this album is one which you can warmly and peacefully listen to.”

I only first heard about this group when the teaser got posted a few days ago, but the fact that they were a co-ed group really interested me, so I had this song's release on my radar. I really like the male vocalist's voice.

LOOK BACK #TWICE: High Cut Scans + Trans, Inkigayo Nomination!

[cinoire.livejournal.com]

Article: Twice's 'ooh ahh' climb back up the charts, even nominated for #1 on 'Inkigayo'

Source: OSEN via Naver

1. [+4,575, -478] They even reached #7 on Melon ㅋㅋ when the song was first released, it ranked #96 on the real time chart but it started to rise and rise until reaching about #30 during their promos and now that their name's more out there, it's up even higher. They're shooting a ton of CFs now too... who knew that JYP would be able to put out a girl group that would be this popular upon debut ㅋㅋ

2. [+2,897, -333] Hope that Twice can win #1...! The song's good, do well

3. [+2,713, -293] JYP's masterpiece Twice

4. [+2,086, -293] Do well, Twice~ each and every member is so pretty ㅠㅠ

5. [+389, -49] Twice is amazing. For the first time in a while JYP puts themselves to work and look what an amazing job they're doing.

6. [+368, -46] Twice is a daebak rookie

7. [+342, -39] It really is amazing, it looks like people aren't obsessed with Twice for no reason. It must be hard for them to decide on a comeback schedule with their debut song still charting so high.

8. [+311, -36] This song managed to beat out all the other songs similarly released with them. What a dramatic climb back up the charts it is indeed.

Narae's Christmas message

Mercuries~~~^_^
It's been a long time since I last left a message ㅜㅡㅜ

You should all have found out yesterday from the news. We're now in the process of changing agencies and we're finding music that suits SPICA, so it takes time for us to come out again and meet with you all (cries) ㅜㅜ We'll definitely appear in front of you with better music and more awesome performances~ Please wait for a little bit more! We'll work hard to have different activities and communicate with you to make the wait for the album less tiring!! So please don't leave us•_•!!!

HEHE today is happy Christmas, so I came here to leave a message~ No matter whether you're with your family, friends, lover or alone at home with Harry Potter, I hope you will have a joyful Christmas>_<

Our members are all doing well~ Boa unnie got a short haircut and she looks very charming and charismatic (gasps) Sihyun unnie is eating a lot of delicious food, but at the same time she's losing weight amazingly. Jiwon is training her body by doing pilates and yoga, and she even bought salad!!! And then she said it doesn't taste good and goes back to rice. Bohyung is back from her happy travels with her flowing black hair~ For me, I'm also having a good time with Jolie (or Brad)~:)
​
Let's have fun in the remaining days of 2015, and meet in 2016>_<



charming and charismatic indeed.. /knees go weak/

(There's nothing to share because nothing has happened...
​HEHEHEHEHE recently I've been doing breathing exercises HAHAHA)
​
-Boa..~

highlights from Boa's New Year Eve fancafe chat session

Boa: Why don't you guys go out [to celebrate New Year's Eve]
fan: Because I'm a homebody and don't like going out
Boa: Hehe I'm also a homebody

fan: Unnie, what are you doing now?
Boa: I'm lying on the wooden floor and typing

fan: I'm the same age as Boa
Boa: We'll soon be 31
(note: Boa's birthday is 14 Jan 1987 - her international age is 29, but her Korean age is 30 + 1 year after the Lunar New Year in Feb)

fan: Ha I'm the same zodiac sign as Boa unnie
Boa: Same zodiac sign ㅋㅋㅋㅋ well, recently many of you [fans] are young

fan: How have you been recently?
Boa: I'm spending my days breathing

fan: I saw you on the streets once, you're pretty
Boa: Huh that's scary, I always feel scared if someone says they saw me somewhere on the streets

fan 1: I don't live in Seoul, it's so hard to see you
fan 2: It's also difficult to see you even when I'm in Seoul
Boa: Because I don't go out, and I'm a real homebody

fan: How are album preparations going?
Boa: I'm gonna leave the chatroom if you ask me this

after fans asked her a barrage of questions
Boa: A barrage of questions.. I'm gonna leave. You guys are threatening me

Boa: Ahhh I'm lying facedown, and now my waist, ribs and pelvis are hurting
fan: I'm the same age as you, but I'm fine ㅋㅋ
Boa: That's because dancing should not be in my destiny, but I did it and it hurts my body

fan: You should take tonics to restore your health
Boa: Then I'll gain weight ㅜㅜ I don't even want to diet now ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Save me, I gained a lot of weight

fan 1: Where should I send my letters to?
fan 2: You can write in the "To SPICA" section of the fancafe
Boa: But I like handwritten letters. I guess you can send them to the B2M office.... Ah I don't know either
(note: CJ E&M updated Eric Nam's fancafe with the new address for letters/gifts but they haven't done it for Spica yet)

3 minutes before 2016
Boa: Ah I don't like the new year. I'm gonna turn off the TV

hilarious how she doesn't bother hiding her dissatisfaction with Spica's inactivity.. and I'm gonna print "Dancing is not in my destiny" on a tshirt and give it to her

Boa and Bohyung for ANSHIS

Boa's so thin T_T I don't see the "weight" she said she put on



+++ their Jungsaemmool makeup artist just posted a bts photo with Boa and Sihyun

ohhhhhhhmyyyyyygodddddddddddd

#fRISEstar: Yezi's album at the end of Jan, Linzy gets straight A+'s in Uni, Cao Lu trends again

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

Article: Cao Lu, "I love learning Korean, I'm currently studying Korean proverbs"

1. [+2,084, -31] I thought Cao Lu would get more popular after 'Radio Star' but her agency must really be bad at doing their jobs
- Loen only promotes IU...
- I've never seen Fiestar or Sunny Hill on a public broadcast variety other than IU... saw Yezi for the first time last year
- Even if they only promote IU, the public has negative sentiment against her ㅋㅋ time to promote the other artists
- Loen has always been bad at doing their jobs ㅋㅋㅋ
- It hasn't even been that long since 'Radio Star' anyway;;
- Why blame Loen? The PDs are also at fault for not recognizing talented stars and maximizing on their potential. Instead they're too busy accepting bribes and sexual favors to cast zero talent stars from big agencies all the time...
- Loen's too busy with IU right now ㅋ
- I admit Loen sucks at their job but don't blame Fiestar not getting popular on IU

2. [+761, -25] Cao Lu, so charming~~~ ^^

3. [+690, -19] She's such a rare personality, she needs to be more popular

( yezus to deliver 5 songs, jei ships herself with cao lu, linzy slays in uni )

linzy is amazing, she also got 2 scholarships. what kind of queen???
