Oh, okay. Then, what does this stand for? (I have no idea on the workings of digitals all that much)
-
INFINITE hit MelOn roof? No thread made about it? I feel like spamming the forum with INFINITE threads *_*.
-
Can we talk about L's fine ass in that flying kick though? That's all my eyes focused on cause otherwise it was funny. I'd tap him and Dongwoo .
-
I thought the younger girl was a nice touch. She's obviously supposed to be the cute little donsaeng of Sunggyu's, who has this crush on L oppa (of course). It's basically the ol' liking your brother's handsome/hot friend. It's totally innocent, you could see the one-side of said crush in the flashback cause L sees her as the age she is, it was all brotherly. It also made the MV stray from it being a complete INFINITE gangster fic. Now if the actress was older, I bet you'd see more of L and her alone... .

If we go by the poll in the Music section, you're not the only one, lol^. LR isn't a bad song really. Perhaps underwhelming for some considering it's more mellow and lacks that bang (which people tend to love so much), but it's not bad.
-
I hope Woollim never does that again, to be honest. Ever. Let this be the first and last time. I'm still feeling ashamed of the thirst they showed. Way to make it seem a lot worse than it actually was and make it feel like admittance. That helped perception loads [sarcasm]. I'm still waiting on the dance practice, by the way, Woollim .
-
I don't browse much here. And fair enough, Woollim's desperation was embarrassing to be honest.

They're bandwagoners. People want and think differently. People also care more about how other idol groups chart than they do their own, just so they can either criticize, bash, or do whatever the hell they want with it for whatever their objective is. They complain, but they care. The efforts sometimes amaze me. Then they also put so much value into k-netz despite that they aren't even the majority population in South Korea and are a select few. Last Romeo I think just lacked that oomphed, if it was more of a hook or more impacting/shocking, it would have been different. But again, it almost did as any other INFINITE song has done. On the other hand, Back is more of that impacting/shocking track, and has the "back back back back" hook. I'm not surprised by the response at all. I don't know what success they are talking about either. My best guess is that, since they don't follow the group of course, they go with rankings (Billboard) instead of what actually occurred during the promotional period and after. And if INFINITE wanted to emulate a success, it would be Man In Love really. That's the song that did the best digitally. Most non fans dislike it, lol. Goes to show you... Case in point. Didn't you write flop romeo just now in that other thread? Not trying to call you out, but I'm interested to read your real opinion and thoughts on it.
-
I think non fans are overrating the shit out of their past songs though. Especially The Chaser. Seriously, where were they? Lol. Last time I checked, back then, The Chaser wasn't deemed as impressive either and some didn't like it.

I feel Destiny was a precursor to this. The fact that they use Rphabet again makes me think that they are going to alternate between them and Sweetune. Eventually, INFINITE trying different music was unavoidable. I'm sure they'd want to produce, compose, and take control of certain things in the group as the years go by. No matter how small, there was going to be deviation eventually in some form. Unless they cut ties with Sweetune, which I highly doubt (they have too much loyalty), there's no point jumping the gun. Season 2 also showed that they can have their sound even with different producers. A the end of the day, the only difference is the genre. Rphabet tends to be more dance music. That's fine. INFINITE still sound like INFINITE to me, because the music isn't the only aspect that gives them their identity. It's the members themselves. Nothing's Over, Be Mine, and of course, Destiny, wasn't particularly 80s synth sounding either, to be honest. What does concern me is the lack of confidence, yes. Like I've said rather bluntly before, lol, they care about winning. It's different though. It's not them wanting to be at the top, but more like they use that as a way to tell themselves they are doing something right and that the fans appreciate it (face it, it's fans that get groups these music show awards). In turn, that makes them happy. I want them happy. I don't want them to be brought down by scrutiny however, especially when it's very unfounded. Woollim hasn't really caved. It's four years, and honestly, if CEO-nim would have wanted to please the public, he would have done so ages ago. He knows and understands the music is not something that would be easily liked. LR almost did as any INFINITE song has ever done digitally. Woollim doesn't give a crap about strategic comebacks either. Plus, we have to realize that they are more than likely concerned about their long absences and last year's scandal(s) despite that they are pretending L's dating issue never existed. This is why trying to please everyone is dumb, lmao. Dumb, dumb, dumb. It's not worth it, especially if they aren't paying for the album. They should just do their own thing.

I actually refuse to get my hair dyed until I have no choice (a.k.a. when gray hairs come out, lol). I've been through my hair being long and short though since I was young though. I would cry if it's anywhere a pixie cut.
-
I'd love for him to be my little bro. I would spoil him to death and be overprotective, omg. Best chemistry he's had was with the girl in 60sec. I remember back how fans were sold on it and thought it was cute and all other squees. I liked what he had with Han Bo Reum too (and they'd be gorgeous together). Guess Yerim would be next, and romantic chemistry with Dasom did not exist, lol. In the case of that gif, the chemistry is more of a sibling thing. Like, oh, she's so adorable [pats head and takes care of her]. It seems genuine too judging by the natural way he's treated children before. Which fortunately fits the one-sided crush description well. She is 14 after all. I wonder why they didn't get anyone older... Can't INFINITE be raunchy?
-
I get the feeling L either doesn't like his hair or feels weird/awkward with it. That fan account made me raise an eyebrow where it said he was quiet for a while, before he went to do fanservice. But now he's like, covering it, both cap and hoodie covering it. I'm pretty sure it's warm out, lol. I want to see the blond more .
-
If Diamond comes to be the better song, I'm going to side eye Woollim, lol. I would think after the good response Sonagi had, that they'll go for these composers as title track material.
-
I'm still gunning for this color - In fact, I might just tweet it to every INFINITE member with fail korean.
-
Gangster INFINITE, guess we're finally getting it. K-Inspirits are probably getting their ovaries exploded. It still sounds like INFINITE, there's just no escaping it, they are their sound. Sungjong with the umbrella acting threatening.....ROFL ROFL ROFL xD. Not the umbrella OH NO! Why is it there's always something cheesy like this with INFINITE's MVs? Sungjong's hair, looks better than that picture before :o. Sunggyu went back to punk. The logo and how it became a biker's logo, lol. MYUNG'S HAIR OMFG IT'S SOOOOOO....boring, per usual -_-. They really don't take risk with his hair at all, at all, and I still detest that damn cut. Woohyun at least changes colors.
-
Well, when Paradise was announced, did they include a mention of a remix? It wouldn't exactly be new, so it might not be a big deal. Nonetheless, two new tracks is fine I think. I thought they were going to go for more only due to the number of songs they said they recorded.
-
INFINITE said winning is just a bonus? But they expressed their disappointment before, so obviously that's not entirely 100% true. They were thinking that LR wasn't doing well simply because it wasn't slaying the digital charts. Woollim was even desperate enough to bait YouTube views by making promises and increasing digital streaming by saying whoever did the most wins an award. Don't care my ass. They do, and people should just get over that. Why is it that fans can't feel the need to want the best for them without people commenting that we're over exaggerating or that we are caring for the wrong reasons? Believe it or not, we care about them doing well. Them doing well means money. Them doing well means CFs. Them doing well means deals. Them doing well means doing more chances to do things with fans and events. Them doing well makes them happy. While I'm sure they are satisfied to have come this far and have what they have, they don't want to lose it. Nor does it mean they can't achieve more. Their career depends on it. And you know what? We still care on just seeing them and having their great music at the same time. So if I feel that promotions are lacking, I will say so and complain because I give a damn, thanks. Nobody has to read it or agree. Didn't Paradise just have two new songs as well? Cover Girl and Paradise?
-
I don't know wtf Woollim is doing (other than squeezing in another tight comeback ala Destiny), but if they continue that way, it's going to affect INFINITE. They're not at Big Bang level to be pulling this crap. I actually want it to be a follow up song at this rate, because this is tragic for a repack.
-
INFINITE returning just feels like a follow up song to me. There's literally nothing going on other than the same comeback teasers and there's....what's there to feed on? I'm honestly not that excited.
-
Yeah, I checked their resume. Pretty impressive, I really want them to work with INFINITE again. They have a bunch of options to choose from really. I mean, it's possible, but...I guess we won't know until a proper teaser. The title could even be one out of those 34 something songs that they recorded already, lol. Rphabet can compose for them another time or maybe have a B-side. I want it to be one of the Season 2 producers, idealistically. Hopefully, it's good, because the promotions for a repack seems very lackluster to me if what we got is how it's gonna go as far as hype.
