Just like BtoB's career, slow at first, then comes the leap frog.

Hah we were thinking the same thing! Great minds think alike, they say.

Do you think we can make this a two-page movement for today? April fools...?

And Cube is even talking about the upgraded Busan concert. People in Cube is not disappointing me. Now move your a**es on the soldout fansign. It will tire out the members, but they said it's better than nothing to do...

Cube is going to do something about the fansign sale being sold out, right? I just complimented them about grabbing opportunities... Please don't make me go back on my words. That news you just posted and the sold out fansign.

Haizz, I blinked and there's another news about BtoB. What is happening?!!!

Nah, they are already starting their takeover; albeit, still in stealth mode. June is when they'll officially take over. You didn't realize that? You were the one who posted BtoB's First Concert DVD; it placed higher than Exo's, even for a split second. On another more serious note, Exo's latest comeback promo is something that should be admired and emulated. SM did not sit on their you know what, even though Exo's fans will buy anything even if they release the crappiest songs in the history of man; they'll probably even buy a one-word song from the group, and that's even without a promo or warning.

This thread has been more active lately. The speed of the increase in post is proportional to Cube's and Melodies' efforts? It didn't even seem like BtoB have had in-between-comebacks period since You're So Fly; there hasn't been a slow down in BtoB's activities. Also, Melodies fearing a slow down, started making and uploading their videos and posts in Pann and other sites.

I have only watched Myungsoo in Shut Up Flower Boy Band, but he didn't leave an impression; it is difficult to catch my attention when Lee Minki is in a drama. Even Sung Joon got overshadowed, even though he's the lead and Minki was only in a cameo role. I most likely have Myunsoo's dramas somewhere in my hard drives, but I haven't watched him in anything else. Sungjae, I'm guessing, would have more presence than Myungsoo when he acts a delinquent. Myungsoo has difficulty removing that small smile from his lips and eyes. It might be because he's really nice. I don't know much about his personality, though; that's just my impression from the few times I've seen him.

Yes, I tried different configurations. They didn't learn the first time BtoB went to Japan. But they have been slowly improving since before 4minute comeback. They shouldn't rely on only SNS though. They were really great during B2st's first few years. Even the monthly release for B2st in Japan is creative and unique, but actual presence during promos is much more effective; I don't know how B2st can manage that though.

Those kinds of roles are always meaty, much better than goody goody two shoes types. Then of course at the end, there will be a change for the better. Those are the types that could become a break-out role. Sungjae's eyes speak, so I'm not that worried; I just don't know if he can maintain the emotion in his eyes long enough for certain scenes...

^ I thought of that too; but I tried putting the the picture outside the quote, it still didn't work. On another note, Cube is more active on SNS and there are more articles about BtoB's success in Japan lately. Have they finally learned to take advantage of opportune times...?

Nope, doesn't work.

Minhyuk and Changsub are trying to steal Hyunsik's BB cream CF?! Shame on them!!! Ah!!! ilsoon, how do you make the pictures show? And now, of course, it shows I double posted. Hmmm...

Minhyuk and Changsub are trying to steal Hyunsik's BB cream CF?! Shame on them!!!

Must have something to do with different cut-off dates?

The April Fool's Day Fever has reached OH! One of the symptoms is hemorrhagic fever... Aw, my eyes!!! Scary... Such repressive regime! BTW, do we get a reward for reporting people who use the illegal words...? I was wondering what they'll come up with when I saw that all red page showing a while ago.

Sungjae and Joohyuk have big shoes to fill though... Kim Woobin and Lee Jongsuk. Those two are big even in China now, partly started from the previous offering of this series. Finally, Koala's Playground and Dramabeans have articles about his casting, not just as a side mention. At least both are positive about his casting. The comments are divided.

How can you out me too fast? It's still the 1st where I am and I'm bored because it's spring break. Here you go. http://borntobeat.co.vu/page/23 You should go to that ASAP because she has it set up with the most recent updates on the first page, so the old posts change pages; and she updates quite often. If you don't see it on the page I've posted, just click to the next higher page/s until you see the links. The links go with the green (or is it slow blue, or maybe black?, gold?, white?) cover of the album.

So the commentor in the School 2015 thread is right. Sungjae is leaving...? https://twitter.com/BTOBUpdates

Why oh why are they so quiet today? I thought their craziness will come out today. At least Peniel tweeted a selca. https://instagram.com/p/07kF34h5ci/

BtoBabos, where are you? You're being left in the dust today! Only Changsub is trying to put some sensibility, whatever that means in his universe. I'm trying to remember what they did last year...

Thank you! I had a different idea about G.NA's slide in popularity, but I think you might have steered me in the right track. Her first singles did better than her latter singles, because no one really knew the real her and people embraced her sexy and strong image at first. Later, her caring, being friendly, intelligence, and child-like personality still come out even during performances and in her MVs; HyunA embraces her sexy image to the hilt during her MVs and performances, her child-like personality behind the camera doesn't show at all. People are confused with G.NA and maybe even distrustful, since she's supposed to have a strong persona because she grew up in North America and her body is to die for. However, her caring/niceness oozes out of her, she can't hide it; a sexy and strong woman is what she's supposed to be. Sexy women are also supposed to be airheads; she fails there. Not only is she confusing; she also is supposed to be hateable. But people just can't hate her because she's too nice; so she's just ignored... You can't ignore HyunA; you either love her or you hate her, or if you're in the middle, you definitely know she exists. For males, they love her period. Plus, they love the fact they love her, because it makes the girls who ignore these males even more envious of HyunA; I guess it's a way of getting even. Those who hate her actually makes her even more popular. This might be over-simplification, but I think it's partly true.

The difference in the way Hyuna and Sungjae are being pushed is the former's is within Cube's power and the latter has to go and audition somewhere else. Hyuna being put in the Troublemaker sub-unit and releasing her own albums is controlled by Cube itself; however, I don't see any of their other Cube female artists being able to do that sub-unit other than Hyuna. Seriously, that girl's sexy charisma is off the charts; her individual MVs on Youtube have numbers that even Beast would envy. The other girls also have charisma, but not necessarily that kind of charisma, more like girl power kind. Now Cube has to see that, and give green hair and power maknae lionesses a sub-unit. That should at least make the effort for everyone in 4minute sort of even since there was already a 2yoon. Cube can't be expected to push the sub-units all at the same time; the spotlight should shine on one unit at a time, or the light will get dispersed. The hate for Hyuna wasn't necessary, she would have made noticeable noise even without it; however, although it irks me, the hate for Sungjae is actually making more people pay attention. The number of views on threads about BtoB in OH seem to rise when there's some sort of hate interspersed with the love... I saw a link for downloading the 3 songs somewhere; I think I know where. Do you want me to look for it? You don't mean where you can digitally buy/download, right?

Yaay! Hyunsik just got cast in... Uhm, he has a new cosmetic ad... https://twitter.com/SIKret_com/status/582922061514825728/photo/1 And Changsub with his tattoos... https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CBbzmtDU8AEVcPJ.jpg:large People should really be more conscious of the date...
