But you didn't exactly refute why she doesn't seem like a sore loser. You only said it's obvious to react that way and I agree, I would react the same way she had towards the guest, but that doesn't make her any less of a sore loser. She hates to be thwarted at her own game and reacts badly to it. If there's a (winning) alliance and she's not a part of it, she reacts the same way. Also in that game the guest didn't give the wrong birthdate. She stated why she gave the birthdate that she did because Kyungran wasn't specific in her question either (although who would've guess there's that catch to it). As a viewer who knew the full detail, I thought the guest was right and Kyungran who didn't know the full of it should be angry but not to the extent that she did glaring at her and putting her on the spot. I feel like I have to say I don't actually hate Kyungran and I think she's one of the best female participants in the game. Sometimes I root for her and sometimes I'm frustrated with her and in this episode I was.

A few people were displeased with Jungmoon pleading after Dongmin to uphold the deal and save her, but then the only reason she was so desperate towards the end was because Jungmoon knew the rest of the loyalists (despite their promise) were trying to turn on her; Kyunghoon especially made it so obvious when he pulled Dongmin aside in the end. Jungmoon betrayed the rebels, but in the process she made a deal with the loyalists. The loyalists in turn weren't confident in her and were trying to betray her. Yes, it would be a smart move for the loyalists to betray Jungmoon and go with her and Yoohyun in jail because that would be 100%, but a betrayal is a betrayal by Jungmoon for her team and the rest on her. Only Dongmin's decision made it not so. They sided with Kyungran who they were more confident in (despite their deal with Jungmoon) and honestly many of them actually are more sympathetic towards Kyungran than Jungmoon and so I understood Jungmoon's desperation to plead with Dongmin who wasn't yet thoroughly swayed. I mean, even Hyunmin leaked the information of Jungmoon's betrayal to Kyungran knowing that it would put Jungmoon on the spot and it not benefiting the loyalist team at all aside from him getting in Kyungran's good graces. Kyungran was just as desperate to persuade the rest that she wasn't a rebel and that would've left Jungmoon in jail, which I didn't see any difference between her desperation and Jungmoon's at the end. Jungmoon apologized because she knew what she had to do and she knew she was desperate and ashamed and Kyungran looked down on that while thinking she was oh so different. I feel Kyungran is a sore loser, just as she was in S1 when that girl gave her a different birthdate during the 5 question game.

[NEWS] SAKURAI SHO'S HOSTING OF PACIFIC WAR MEMORIAL PROGRAM ATTRACTS THE ATTENTION OF ABE'S ADMINISTRATION Due to the recent controversy on Prime Minister Abe Shinzo's new bill on Japan's defense system which promotes "less pacifism", NTV is said to hit the jackpot when they announced the broadcast of "Sakurai Sho and Ikegami Akira's The War that We Don't Learn in the Textbooks" which is scheduled on August 4th with Arashi's Sakurai Sho as the main MC. Even though the timing is purely coincidental, the special program is afraid to affect the public's opinions on the bill. The members of Abe's government are harboring both high expectation and fear regarding this program. "Many celebrities have expressed their opinions. However, if we're talking about Arashi's Sakurai Sho, a newscaster and a member of an idol group which often becomes the hottest topic among the public, the weight of his words is not to be underestimated. The content of this program is very worrisome." For the program, Sakurai Sho was sent to Papua New Guinea to visit the Pacific War remnants. It was mentioned by Sakurai that his late grandfather also visited the country for the same purpose years ago for a newspaper company. "It felt like a mission that's being passed down through (my family's) generations." (source: Livedoor via Niea Triestine Translation in English ) http://www.arashi-peru.com/2015/07/news-gobierno-de-abe-shinzo-preocupado.html _____________________________ Musicians, idols, and etc have the ability to bring awareness to important past and current issues. I'm proud of Arashi for all of the charity work they've done and are still doing (Arashi Blast in Miyagi is still happening!). Too many non-fans look down on Arashi and call them out for being "talentless" and predicting their downfall in popularity without actually realizing what this beautiful group has tried to do during their reign of popularity. Of course, many celebrities have done and are doing much more (and some are doing less) and I just love this group for doing what they can do among the many things that are packed into their heavy work schedule and private lives.

Try Arafes 2013, especially during Sho's section. They switch things around so more parts of it are live: A DAY IN OUR LIFE (from DVD) unfortunately Ohno's not the one singing in this one https://www.facebook.com/408967279156103/videos/725403297512498/ For recent concerts you can usually try your luck during encores or when Arashi is singing their older songs. Sorry this one is old too it's 2011, Arashi sang Lotus, Happiness and Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi on Music Station. I don't think Lotus and Happiness is live but Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi is (the last song, starts at 4:00): https://www.facebook.com/283725287111/videos/1973413698911/ Anything more recent I would probably have to wrack my mind. +++++ I think I should introduce myself >_< Hi! I've been a lurker on Onehallyu for a while. Thought I should finally join. I've been an Arashi fan for a while too (5 years? not long enough) and since this is Onehallyu I'm more into k-variety than kpop or k-dramas. This is my first post *woot*
