  1. According to the OP, fansign registration actually started on the 5:th.

    I wonder how many fansigns they'll do though, and when the last ones will end. Seeing as they're only promoting for about 2 weeks, they'll probably not have that many, and those they have will be during the first 3 or so weeks.

     

    That could be good for T-ara, I guess, but I still don't see them winning anything with 2PM also coming back.

     

    Yes, fansigns started on the 5th but this past weekend was a holiday in many Asian countries so stores might not have reported in full since about Thursday. We will see by the end of tomorrow (as today is also still a part of the holiday). 

     

    Also, I think there is a good chance they will do another fansign for version B as it comes in about 4 days. 

     

     

    i think Jay Park's fans just backstabbed SJ. With this sale; SJ's chance to win music shows next week is almost gone

    Jay Park's fans had not loyalty to SJ, so there is no reason for them to concern themselves with SJ's chances at winning.  Besides, SuJu's chances were already quite low considering their digital so it's really not all that devastating or anything. 
  2. I highly doubt there's followup. They're focusing on tour~ and yeah 2 weeks.

    -


    A pity mamacita sales aren't doing well this week. SM had printing issue so fans could only buy 1/person so bulk orders of thousands of albums can't be processed yet.....

     

     

    What do you mean by 'not doing well'? They've already got 54k in one week and it's a holiday week. Sure, it's less than their first-week sales for 5jib and 6jib but I wouldn't consider 54k poor sales. 

     

    Besides, fanmeet sales started on Saturday and weekend sales aren't always reported until Monday (in this case it might even be Tuesday due to the holiday).  People have too high of expectations for them in my opinion 54k in 6 days is considered 'poor'.

    This news was first revealed by the Korean media and no Chinese sites reported about this. This is written by the same reporter who said about the false rumor of Kris joining Yuehwa. 

     

     

    ^^^^^^

     

    I was wondering where this came from and I wasn't hearing more about it from the Chinese side of things. 

     

    Aren't there rumors that she is already married to someone?

     

    Anyway, it's hilarious how all these k-exostans are now using dating secretly against someone. They just argued a month ago that they wouldn't be angry if Baekhyun hadn't boasted so much. Now that they find out Kris was dating someone so secretly (two people actually), he is just as guilty. How does that work? 

     

     

    If it's true, go him! She is effing gorgeous, and I'm quite jealous of Wu Yi Fan in this situation. xD

     

    If not, K-media needs to stop this shit cause it is getting ridiculous.

  4. whoaaaa, you went to best of best concert? so jealous >.<

    lol sungjong is really cute with his cute mistakes in introducings (i remember in one of ogs in japan he said something in japanese wrong and myungsoo was "dying" too ahahaha)

     

    ugh i cant wait for the day i can meet infinite >////////<

     

    Yes! I went~ They did really good.

     

    I also have to say that Sunggyu sings much higher live than it sounds over the computer. It still sounded amazing though. They were all on point with both singing and choreography tonight. Very proud of them actually. 

     

    I swear though... Dongwoo spent like half of their chat session on the floor because he kept laughing at everything. 

    Oh, there was also a moment where Sungyeol and Dongwoo were both heading back to the front of the stage after their last song and then Sungyeol turned around to see the platform in the middle lowering with the other members. He ran to get on it and they all had to yell at Dongwoo. He then ran as well and jumped down into the hole. It was cute~

  5. Cutest thing ever. 

     

    When Infinite was introducing themselves, Infinite started with "women shi infinite". 

    Then they were supposed to do individual introductions. Sungjong was first. And he said "Women shi Infinite" all by himself and the members died laughing at him. Then, he tried again and said "women shi sungjong". He pretty much said 'we are Sungjong' instead of 'I am Sungjong'. Again, the members died. 

    When I say died, I mean Dongwoo fell on the floor laughing and Sungyeol slapped the poor maknae around a bit. 

     

    I also have to say that Sungyeol has the prettiest face ever. He looks so beautiful in person.  Woohyun was throwing hearts at the audience and he threw one right at me ;;

     

    And I'm pretty sure I saw Suju's Donghae slap one of the Infinite members' butts. I think it was Woohyun but I'm not sure cause they were turned around and it was a bit chaotic.

  6. Agree.

    It would just be more meaningful...

     

     

    ... but talent alone is not enough for success [which is what I meant by 'earning stripes']

     

    Yes, but this topic is about whether or not someone has talent, and how successful that makes them. Unless you are implying that hard work is more important than talent... 

     

    I apologize though because it sure seemed to me that at first you were implying hard work = talent.

    I really don't think our "bashing" of Shindong is unfounded at all. It's based on very real things that actually happened. I don't know about anyone else, but I don't find this shit funny:

    tumblr_m6xvhfhtqc1r8qk07o5_250.giftumblr_m6xvhfhtqc1r8qk07o7_250.gif

     

    If that wasn't trying to out him what the fuck else were they trying to do...

     

    I'm sorry but I really dislike Shindong for the shit he's said and done in the past - and I'm not about to pretend like I think he's a harmless person because I really don't think he is. 

     

     

     

    It's a joke and expected of him. And to think that he's actually doing that while 'knowing' that Myungsoo is really gay or something is kinda odd. Yeah, I'll admit Shindong can be a douche, but I highly doubt he would actually want to be in charge of that scandal if it were to break. Yes, it's insensitive but the way I read those comments earlier made it sound like you guys were accusing him of outing Myungsoo and Sungjong as a couple. 

     

    Anyway, I take back my statement. Do whatever you like. Probs won't be back much in the future considering what this thread has become so do as you please with your shipping and mindless conspiracy theories about Shindong trying to out people purposefully.

  8.   Yeah Taiwan seems pretty cool they have gay mv's some and a gay drama called Crystal boys but it might be from mainland China.

     

     

    Just looked up this Crystal Boys show. Yes, it is a Taiwanese drama. It's based on a novel apparently written by a Taiwanese author. Definitely going to have to check it out now. 

     

     

    ----

     

     

    Can we not with the Shindong bashing in here guys? You're doing this based on complete assumptions (which appear very far-fetched). Like that's cool if you want to ship Myungsoo and Sungjong or whatever but to assume that people are trying to out them maliciously....

     

    Also, I know a lot of people here do not know English all that well, but we can stop referring to people as 'gays' or 'a gay'. I find that ridiculously offensive. Can't we just say gay people or gay guys or people who are gay.

     

     

    Anyway, I've already started seeing people talking about how Heechul is suddenly 'definitely straight' after that first episode of WGM Global aired. It's really weird how everyone can be convinced by a show that has proven to be rather falsified, especially when some of those same fans were the ones that swore up and down he was gay.

  9. It makes me happy to know Taiwan is cool about gay marriage 2 artists Jolin Tsai and Tanya Chua support gay marriage.

     

     

    Rainie Yang did drama MV about a bisexual woman and dedicated to her 'friends deserving to get married just like others' or something sappy like that. And I also think Hebe's mentioned her support toward the community quite often as well.

     

    Yeah, being gay is really not a big deal here. It's probably even more chill than most of the U.S. Sure you have old people who might 'not understand' it, but they just keep their noses out of it for the most part. I think Taiwan hasn't legalized marriage for same-sex couples yet simply because they country is a bit afraid of change and moves really slow about making any legal decisions, especially radical ones. 

     

    The one thing that is a bit odd though is that there aren't a lot of out and open celebrities in Taiwan. That might just be because Taiwanese people tend to be more private about those things in their own life or something.

     

     

     

    No you have it twisted sweeties.

     

    I don't hate gay people.

     

    I dislike & have no respected for closeted gay what they did to the LGBT community.

     

    Homophobia is someone who hate gay period.

     

    I have closeted gay come to me ' ask me of how I get my parent to love me who I am. I told them first you has to love yourself to order to confront your parent. A parent who disowned their own child is not a parent. I see lot of openly gay go through this everyday because we live in society of fake & phony. I'm sorry you think that way but I just has no respect of closeted gay.

     

    I have more respect to the openly gay then them.

     

    And Jamaica friend who left his country to live in peace and happiness. He is a powerful activist in the LGBT community. and he is anChristian man with strong faith with The Lord.

     

    So, A closeted have a choice to live happy or live what they live as them.

     
    I'm just gonna respond to you once more on this topic.
     

     

    Are you gay? I'm assuming that you aren't gay based on a post you made saying that you are a friend of 'gays' or something like that. If you are though, then maybe I can understand where your frustration comes from when you have to live every day with people making judgments about your sexuality while others (like myself) keep that part of themselves a secret from many. 
     
    If you're not gay, why do you think you would understand what it is like to actually be gay. I'm not an ally hater in the least, but I do not think that a straight person could really understand the stress that comes with that. 
     
    If you want to know why it is that I live semi-closeted at the moment, it's because my sexuality is only a small part of me. Others, like yourself, try to make it a big part of me. They want me to throw away my entire family over something so small. My family has loved and supported me in almost every other area of my life. You really expect me to give them up simply because I get turned on by the V more than the D?
     
    You really have no idea how offended I am by you putting down my parents directly. You do not know them or their upbringing or their beliefs. I won't delve into much more detail about the situation with them because that isn't really any of your business. On the same page, it's not actually your business what my sexuality is or how many people know about it. 

     

     
    That being said, it's not actually anyone's business what a Korean celebrity's sexuality is nor how many people know about said sexuality. I don't mind the light discussions that take place in this thread because I think most people here understand that it doesn't really matter what is said about that celebrity's sexual orientation. Although, I would love to have more visibility among celebrities (in Asia and the West), it's not their obligation to live openly to us (or even to their families and friends.

  10. I know coming out it hard but if your parent love you who you are as gay. They are really good parent to you and I hate tell you this if you marriage a men. You will be very unhappy person.

     

    I have a girl who is Lesbian who marriage her husband. She attempt suicide because she can't live a lie no more :(. And now her family accept her who she is now because ex husband help her.

     

    If people accept you of who you are. They are your blessing into your life and never loss them.

     

     

    Yeah but unfortunately life is not actually that simple. I know for a fact that my parents wouldn't be able to accept it. I've seen it first hand with my stepsister. 

     

    Some people are unfortunately not raised in situations that make living their lives freely very possible.  Just, try to keep that in mind before you judge others too harshly. ^^

  11. To be honest i think he also has a point, i think marrying the opposite sex is ''fine'' IF the other is also  homosexual so that both party know what is going on. If he marries someone out of duty, and not out love it also ''ok''.. because i guess it happens a lot in straight couple, or any couple , business marriage etc...(But i will never ever do that, to marry someone not out of love),

     

    BUt then to go on and have this other relationship behind ur spouse back is just stupid

     

    You have to consider though that a lot of people who do that are still in denial even with themselves when they first get married. No, it isn't right to cheat, but you have to think of what it was like for many of them to have come to terms with this attraction after already starting a family. 

     

    I'm not excusing the cheating at all. However, I don't think 'stupid' is the right word. 

     

    For example, let's say Nickhun and Tiffany got married or something. Then one day, Nickhun realizes he's gay. If he still has a public career (somehow), don't you think it would be incredibly hard for him to leave her and live happily out and proud. 

     

    Besides, a lot of people don't realize that many pockets of society would encourage the closeted individual to just have their 'fun on the side' instead of ruining a perfectly good marriage. In societies where marriage isn't as love-centric, this view is even more prominent.

  12. Can you possibly explain why? I'm not a closet gay, but I'm a closet ace in my extremely Conservative/Traditional household (so it is just as "bad" here) and I am a little confused.

     

    I don't think you are entitled to say that you do not have respect for them and justified to not stand people who are in the closet. I feel that if you understood what it feels like to have to hide something as simple and big as sexuality, then you wouldn't feel that way.

     

    Hell, if you understood the situation at all, you wouldn't feel that way.

     

    Also, you make it sound like being gay is a bad thing by comparing it to cheating, I don't understand your correlation??? How does liking the same sex equate to betraying someone's trust in one of the worst possible ways?

     

     

    Please clarify your point, I am trying not to judge you.

     

    Was about to post something similar.

     

     

    There are a lot of closeted gay in Korea.

     

    I don't have no respect for closeted gay and I can't stand them. I got so I dislike them and the same with the cheater too. I can't see myself married a person I don't even love. I can't see myself married and having sex another person than my wife.

     

    I don't respect people who disrespect marriage.

     

    As already stated by others, I think you're a bit misguided on what marriage actually is and has been. Please try to keep an open mind toward those of us who do not have the freedom to live honestly. When you come from a very religious family, being who you are can be quite difficult. 

     

    You can't expect everyone to give up their career, their family, and their social status so easily. That sort of courage is hard and sometimes even dangerous. 

     

    I think that you are trying to imply that you dislike closeted people who marry someone of the opposite sex out of fear right? It's still a bit harsh considering marriage isn't always a choice. However, I think you might have worded your explanation a bit poorly and come off more homophobic than you intended. 

     

    Anyway, I feel hurt mostly because I am indeed someone that hasn't come out to my family (or most of my friends back in the states for that matter). And I have to admit that the thought of marrying a man to keep my relationship with my family has crossed my mind quite a few times. 

     

    Imagine for a  moment how these celebrities would feel. They'd probably lose their career, their friends, their family, and any sort of face they have in society. Korea is quite homophobic still and it is scary to live openly in a place that won't accept you.

     

    wow, you're a homophobic piece of crap, wtf.

     

     

    I think that's a bit harsh as well. Obviously the poster isn't truly homophobic considering what they've said in the past. I also think calling someone a piece of crap for an ignorant/misguided statement is a bit mean-spirited.

     

    Marriage was historically not about love, it's a contract between two (or more, depending on the culture) people in order to mutually assure their survival and ability to reproduce and everybody did it regardless of their sexual orientation. In modern times it has come to be more about love, but in Korea there's still very much a sense of duty about it. Until Korea sheds that sense of duty you can't fault some of them for feeling obligated to fulfill it. Yes, it's extremely shitty... but regardless you need to look at things from their perspective, not your own. Some people don't have the luxury of being able to marry for love.

     

    This pretty much. 

    Marriage in Asia is way behind in regards to the whole 'marry for love' movement. It's just now starting to become a thing where people are actually allowed to choose who they marry instead of their parents setting them up with someone. Even in the West though, this movement isn't that old.
