  1. Before EXO, it was the obsession with visuals (which worked) except for Taemin (dancer. The comments above say SHINee has no official center, but from the way they promoted especially from Sherlock onwards it's pretty obvious who SM meant to push lol). From EXO onwards, it was obsession with dancers/performers as I believe Seulgi does quite a lot of "center" things (screen time, dancing in the center). I think they've succeeded since the members they pick are the ones that draw the eye on stage.

    Also Kai is a unique case of appearing more popular than he really is. He is probably the most well-known and the first person people think of when EXO is mentioned but in terms of popularity within the group, is somewhere in the middle as can be seen from his album sales and just...many things over the years. EXO's popular trio is Baekhyun, Sehun, Chanyeol.

  2. i'm late but i think it'll be obsession level at best, suju level at worst. the group fandom is on crutches at this point. album sales will be much lower because the solo chinese stans who made up the bulk of their sales in the past now have solos to focus on and couldn't care less about the group. their korean fandom has mostly left for other groups or become solo stans. gp has moved on from them too. of course they'll still do better than many groups, but it'll be a shadow of their pre-2019 performance. at least the music is guaranteed to be good.

    i mean SM was gonna debuted them years ago  so people have waited for long lol , the C5s are undeveloped like a lot i'm afraid we're getting a wendy 2.0 ...she sound like a soft mixer not a big powerhouse belter 

    What's wrong with being like Wendy? Isn't she one of the better ones in the industry....and certainly the best female (idol) in 3rd and 4th gen. She matches up well to her SM seniors too. Don't get this at all tbh

  4. so i try to identify the princes:

     

    4th prince is Lee Jun Ki

    8th prince is Kang Ha Neul

    10th prince is Baekhyun

    13th prince is Nam Joo Hyuk

     

    im curious who gonna be 14th prince because he has quite big role in the drama as well. probably between Hong Jong Hyun or Ji Soo

     

    alright i just noticed the chart, so 14th prince is Ji Soo

     

    Hong Jonghyun is the 3rd prince ( i can't remember him in the original drama ver)

     

    if i'm not wrong 3rd prince's role is similar to 9th prince's role in the original? but we'll see

  5. hello!! 

     

    so I tend to lurk on this thread a lot, especially when there's big stuff like concerts, though I don't use it as much bc my main source of info on exo comes from twitter LOL

     

    I've decided to unlurk temporarily bc it is/was exo's 4th anniversary and like I'm really emo and all since they were the first kpop group I ever hardcore stanned HAHA so even tho I'm a multifandom trash they will forever have a special place in my heart :') (why am I saying all this lmao)

     

    hope I'm welcome to spazz here!! my bias is jongdae btw!! (with jongin and yixing following really close behind~) but I love all of them a lot <3

  6. This thread is so dead guys ;_; I understand that except for Amber's song there's not much going on but!!! ;___; we're not even the 1st most replied thread anymore!!!

     

    How about we play some games? lol

     

    Okay let's do this: make your perfect f(x) album! Choose 10-12 songs from their discography, then add 2-3 for the repackage album too if you want!

    Some rules:

    - If you want you can put a solo song (like from Amber's mini album or one of Luna's or idk whatever ost you like), but only one!

    - Choose which song would be the promoted single and the 2nd promoted one (the one they perform on their comeback stages)

    - Try to include one song from each album/mini if you can, but if you want to forget about Chu then I understand

    - Name the album!

     

    I'll think about it and come back later with my ultimate f(x) album 

     

    OAwnya3.gif

     

    I can't think of a title lmao so 'dimension ultimate' (lame I know):

    -danger (lead single)

    -dracula (2nd promoted single)

    -la cha ta

    -beautiful stranger

    -shadow

    -airplane

    -milk

    -all night

    -paper heart

    -x

    -rude love

    -papi

     

    repack (nu abo):

    -nu abo (title track duh)

    -love

    -beautiful goodbye

  7. The comment about Ailee being merely above average by western standards... lol What's that average huh? lol 

     

     

    This was just a lot of strain, she is singing all in her throat. Christina Aguilera has a gorgeous instrument, a beautiful voice but she doesn't use the potential of her voice well whatsoever. She has subpar technique, barely uses breath support and basically sings with her larynx going up and down to change her sound, with a lot of chest being pushed for her to sound like she has a much bigger voice than her natural instrument. She manipulates the sound of her voice with too much pushing, tension, throatiness and thus causes a lot of vocal strain and damage to her vocal cords. That specific part you put is a great example of her straining her falsetto to the point where it sounds like a shriek, a very shrill thin sound. 

     

     

    Basically all MR removed videos prove is that someone is singing live, as if singing live meant someone is good. A lot of people try to say "so and so lip synchs" well, okay? Beyonce lip synched the National Anthem, that doesn't make her any less of a great example of good technique in a vocalist. MR Removed distorts the sound of the voice and only really breaks the whole mood of hearing someone's singing and how they're able to manipulate the sound of their voices, as well as the volume and air control with the dynamics of the music in itself. Instead all we hear is people singing while dancing and running out of breath, but hey I guess it's live right? Honestly, it's a very sad way of trying to demean someone or trying to make someone look good. 

     

     

    0:31 nice head voice transition, she started slightly nasal at first but it was all on purpose. 1:18 her F#3's sound great. 1:20 lots of vibrato there. 1:32 that's nice. 1:45 nice C#5. I feel like sometimes her mix gets a bit too light and she loses power and she rises in range, her resonance isn't as big but the support is there, for sure. 2:14 good transition into head voice, good placement and vowel shaping. 2:20 the run after this part was kind of a slide but the sustained note had good placement, it was nice. 2:39 Nice nice, the highest note in this was Eb5, the lowest was F#3. Good support throughout, the placement could've been fuller. 

    thanks for the informative reply!  :)

  8. hello! I've been lurking on here recently and I think one of you said before that MR removeds are not a good way to determine someone's singing ability. why would you say so (especially since a lot of people like to brag about/put down a group based on how they sound like in such videos)? thanks!
