I happy to have WhatsApp down. The only thing i keep it for is my work. Too many chats with people messaging stuff that is not worth my time reading.

Now up to 7.7. It just keep ticking over like crazy. She was truly a standout from the drama.

If CCP goes after liu yifei even after her pro police stance then you got to wonder if hollywood who has been kissing up to china will also get pushed out of too.

Was thinking more specifically for songs in Mandarin and the effect it’d have on AM playlists etc. But not going lie i have enjoyed a Thai language album by Montonn Jira. I also wonder how far CCP will take banning certain looks. Will they take it all the way to “here is a list of official haircut style you can choose from” etc.

I wonder if pop from Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia will weather this storm.

I think whatever she did for her lips in deja vu era was perfect. what really want to know know is what else shes done.

Maybe and those that aren’t technically blacklisted might opt for a get out while you can before you get dragged through the mud.

Terrible. Watched a Singaporean drama and the actors were speaking english. Actors would say whore and subs said prostitute.

Heard it put one way that survivors of rape don't have the luxury of being able to leave the crime scene, its their body.

I wish those people hadn’t let his behaviour get a pass. Whilst I didn’t like him in EXO I did like some of his releases. I was low-key suspicious of him after seeing one of his mvs, expected drug taking. But my silly ass still briefly supported him and never foresaw what all these rumours are suggesting. My only reason for wishing they are rumours because of the victims and victims so young and they went through. Would like to like in a different reality where they didn’t go through what they’ve been through. But if found true then I want everything that be thrown at him as his punishment. If death penalty was a possibility I’d be okay with it as long as the evidence was beyond deniable. The victims need that for closure. Hopefully the identities of victims regardless of age won’t be leaked. Anyone that was an enabler also need to be punished properly, no scapegoats or fall guy will be tolerated.

Agree with this. Chinese stars doing the work of the CCP could easily be a hostage situation as much as it could be a personal choice of the individual. For me with the tiny cameo in tempo and 3 years after that has basically turned EXO into OT8. It’s really too little too late and this is from someone who loved EXO-M more than EXO-K.

I LOVED that song. I played it on loop during study period before exams. Legit several hundred plays in a the space of a week.

and why did the previous owner of each song sell their copyrights? why not just keep the royalties coming?

All companies are greedy. Even if it wasn’t for the Apple ecosystem that I’ve already bought into I chose AM since they pay the artist a little bit better per stream or download. I considered tidal but I don’t think my hard wear for playing music is of a quality that can justify that price difference.

YouTube belatedly adding millions of views for odd eye today. Could give day 1 a run for its money.

I want wait to see them promote wind blows. 2 weeks of odd eye is too short. I hope to see them do more shows as well.

I loved watching them on Weekly Idol, every member had their time to shine.

So today I had time and waited for their live performance. While waiting I can to realise that their live vocals are in a league of their own for quality and also volume. It’s been many years since I’ve done anything like this. Each member is able to cut through all the noise is the instrumentals and be heard. Some groups the main vocalist wouldn’t even make the cut for a lead or sub vocalist in DC.

I love the song but listening to it with headphones is a totally different experience. This song also probably has one of the most even line distributions ever.

I've been all hyped up on reddit and also having so much fun watching their showcase.

comments like this give me faith that not everyone has drank the kool aid even though there has been a trend for this kind of thing along with 'safe spaces for (insert intersectionality bonus points group)' which basically a revamped segregation.

I've never been this hyped for any teaser and I'm saying that as someone who has been into kpop for a decade.

I'm so excited. I'm already speculating a mini story line and thinking that they've taken notes from the Matrix movies.

Their comeback preparations must be going so well that they got time and energy to be messing around like this.
