    I'm low-key-high-key mad he's just standing there looking sad and contemplating life and even the background has nothing going on but a damn house

    It's summer and I expected something fun but it looks like they're about to release an alt-pop rock ballad mid-late june and I'm heavily questioning that thought rn

    (I know aia will come at me for sharing my opinion but fight me I got receipts on you and your problematic behavior!!)

     

     

    exactly everything same, even the receipts part

  2. Don't get me wrong. Im a solid RV fan, but earlier, it seems like they failed to connect with the crowd and the atmosphere was so awkward unlike last year. Im just a lil bit sad that RV did not show their 'performance mode'. Rookie perf was a bit off for me.

     

    well, you are entitled to have your own feeling about a performance, but it's a nonsense to me tbh, because they slayed - as usual whenever they are performing (if anything, they seemed even more cheerful than usual today, especially Irene)

  3. I mean according to Reddit the article says Red Velvet and EXO will follow after NCT 127 in June/July and I highly doubt RV are coming back in June, and I always assumed that they were going to release the reality show leading up to it. I'm leaning towards early July and EXO mid June since there's actually been separate confirmstion about EXO even before this article.

     

    yes, i agree to be honest, just the wording of this and way it was translated was a bit confusing

     

    i believe it rly is going to be NCT > EXO > RV > SNSD, then the others so it's punch after punch for SM, i can't wait ahmagahplz.png

  4.  

    so this tweet basically says the tentative timeline of SM comebacks and it goes a lil like this:

     

    nct 127: comeback set for this month.
     
    red velvet: preparing for a comeback, no timeline yet.
     
    exo: summer comeback confirmed, "no specific date".
     
    snsd: summer comeback in august for 10th anniversary.
     
    super junior: comeback after donghae, eunhyuk and siwon finish their military duties in august. mentions "summer or fall" (but fall is more likely? didn't one of the members say october?)
     
    shinee: set to go into comeback preparation mode soon.
     
    no mention of tvxq, trax, f(x) or any soloists / subunits in the article.
     
    (taken from loveappeal's thread which is here)
     
     
     
    so RV will be before EXO is what im getting from this? now that's unexpected, but im here for this tbh

  5. I think that SM will indeed squeeze them between EXO and SNSD, it won't be the first time SM does something like that and to be honest? I wouldn't mind it, I think we're past the point when we have to worry about their chart performance or whatever, we don't have to worry about who they go against, they've done it before and succeeded. I won't lie, I want them to come back as soon as possible because I already miss them and want to see them release and perform music.

     

    I believe comebacks in SM will probably go like that:

     

    NCT 127 (early june, mid-june) -> EXO (mid-june, late june) -> Red Velvet (late june, july) -> SNSD (mid-july, august), then Shinee, TVXQ and Super Junior in the late summer, fall and winter, not counting solos and NCT unit debuts or other groups units or whatever of course because they are easily squeeze-able between major comebacks.

  6. About the eternal Red/Velvet dispute and their lack of variety in concepts lately, I think SM needs to realize that Red concept doesn't have to be 'childish' or 'cute', I think girl crush Red concept like Boombayah (among others, but this came to my mind first) would be an awesome next thing for RV to do.

     

    The problem isn't Red concept itself, but how SM deliberately limits it to eye-popping, colorful Disney-esque visuals.

  7. Guys I'm not really familiar with whether or not a drama is successful or not but is the first episode an indicator of the success it's likely to have?

     

    well, I've watched countless dramas and was up-to-date with their ratings and stuff almost every time and I can tell you that ratings for 1st episodes don't reflect if drama is succesful, in a vast majority of cases ratings pick up (if drama's good, got a lot of buzz around it, good acting, script etc.) or they can as well plummet down if drama is a critical flop and doesn't resonate with audience well.

     

    Descendants of the Sun started from around 10% to almost 40% in last episode, as for tvn (Joy's drama's channel), they had a lot of hit dramas that started with low ratings and gained viewers to almost national level craze status (like Goblin or Reply 1988) - what u have to remember tho, tvn is a cable channel so dramas won't ever achieve the ratings public channels have, for example around 15% on tvn equals to 35-40% on public channel, so if Joy's drama achieves 5%, it can be deemed success.

     

    Ugh, I hope I explained it all clearly. If not, then feel free to ask. I've watched lots lots lots of dramas that flopped or became hits over their courses so I'll try to explain if u have any questions. smile.png

  8. 6pm?? thats....4am my time...oh god... warstarplz.png

     

    fortunately its like 10AM for me, for once a decent hour so I won't have to stay up this time

     

    VgvfRxv.gif

     

    anyways, i'm so pumped for this, gotta admit I was anxious that Ready or Not wasn't the title (i mean, the team that produced All In was behind it? it's gonna be a damn bop) but Beautiful sounds amazing from the two fragments we got, i'm all in for them dramatic synths, epic instrumental and Kihyun's falsetto (pun fully intended)

  9. the more i see of him, the more i want to support him tbh

     

    0bZZsZy.gif

     

    i hope people notice him and he shoots up in popularity, even tho I gotta admit for his apparent F rank (?, which is unconfirmed but seems like that) and 2 seconds of airtime he is already pretty popular, i see a lot of his fansites being opened, a lot of fantakens etc. so i have a good feeling sistrens

  10. It's really lower than RR and DD, and almost lower than ICC.....

    I'm sad

     

    But I think second week will be better? I don't know. Even in streamings they are barely in top 20 I think.

     

    i really don't know why the sales are so low tbh, i guess the drops to 10s in their first week before promotions started really hurt them a lot

     

    i expect the sales to be better in second week too, they almost never leave top5 now on Melon and consistently stay around the same on all the charts

  11. Not gonna lie, I was a bit let down at first listen because I was expecting sth different, BUT now I'm on my 6th replay and I can't stop - 'lookie, lookie' part is stuck in my head to the point it makes it hurt, I'm jamming around my room and singing along, this song is definitely a massive grower if you didn't like her at first listen - it legit gets better every time. :rlytearpls:

  12. You're really exaggerating. How is saying it sounds like a bside bashing ? lol

    I feel like some users here can't take the slightest "negative" opinion, like it should always be cookies and rainbows. Be more open minded pls. Everyone is sharing his thoughts so i shared mine too.

     

    umm, i wrote 'negativity and bashing', don't twist my words please

     

    also it's not about being open-minded, my faves, all of them in fact, are criticised on a daily basis so I'm used to it, but criticising based on literally nothing is sth i won't sit still about, you can voice your opinion, it's your right, but opinion based on nothing is not opinion, it's plain ass negativity

     

    i'm done with arguing tbh, i ain't here to be negative either so i'm gonna lurk and appreciate their comeback and maybe give my opinion once i have anything to give opinion about :)

  13. I'm pretty sure this is a thread where everyone is free to give his opinions and impressions or am i wrong?!

    No need to get triggered over a simple opinion you know. I'm one of the first users to defend RV when someone is bashing them but i'll also be the first to give criticism where it's due.

    Also the same can be said about those saying it's a bop. How would they know from a 7 seconds snippet? lol

     

    well, you're absolutely right, that's why I'm holding back my opinion until i have absolutely reliable and confirmed basis that i can form it upon, for now I'm just amazed because we literally didn't see anything and everyone is so quick with negativity and bashing

     

    and criticism should be reserved for something that deserves it, not rumors and assumptions :)

  14. I take back what i said i'm convinced it's the title track ROOKIE since SM wrote on their fb page rookie teaser #1.

     

    But tbh from what i heard in the Vlive i'm kinda concerned since it sounds more like a b-side to me and it doesn't seem like smth the public would love :$

     

    same tbh

     

    i really don't want to be rude, but really? y'all heard literally 7 seconds of an instrumental and you already deem the title as 'not as strong' and 'b-side' when we don't even know if it's really the title track?

     

    like... Jesus, calm down

  15. can anyone enlighten me why these teasers are a disappointment? like, i was pretty skeptical when the first teaser dropped, i admit, but the more i see of the concept the less i see it as DD 2.0, ICC 2.0 or RR 2.0

     

    i'm really liking it now tbh so can anyone disappoined point out exact reasons for that because i seem to not get sth? :derp:

    bringing this back once more bc it might have got buried, seems like the clip everyone hails as their demo is not Rookie, so y'all calm down and wait for the actual confirmed clips

     

    better not to get too ahead of yourself so u won't get disappointed

  17. my thoughts exactly :)  and tbh... to me it doesn't really matter if its a mini or full album? except for having more songs promotions are pretty much the same :lol:

     

    this so much, the only difference is the amount of songs and so far Red Velvet has yet to release a bad one, so it's understandable that we'd like to have more of them at once but I also feel like SM is purposefully trying to keep up their momentum that got resurrected after RR hit big with this mini and hype up the release of their 2nd full maybe in summer this time? :)
