Something for Junghwa fans, a dating show from 2015 if you haven't' already seen it. 3 Episodes. She's so cute and sweet. http://kshows.to/kshow-detail/match-made-in-heaven-returns.html For Hyerin fans, there's a fan named Hyelinkid who's made some great Hyerin videos - a must see if you haven't yet. Here is his youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-FeH7Ov6nYaHqJn8J3GvNg He also has a Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/hyelinikid/

It wouldn't surprise me at all if the general public only knows Hani and Solji since they are the ones who have appeared on the most variety shows by far. There aren't that many regular variety shows that use more than one or two idols from a group in any single episode except for a cameo (like EXID on Cool Kidz recently). As a group they go on shows like Weekly Idol or After School Club but I don't know if non-Kpop fans watch those shows. But isn't this true for most groups that they only have one or two members who are known to the general public (if any)? I watch a lot of regular Korean variety shows (those that are subbed into english anyway) and it seems to me that EXID does a lot better than most groups. Honestly I don't know how much the general public pays attention to idols, I'd be curious to find out.

I love Solji but because of her I am now hooked on korean singing shows. Ah well, it's worth it to see her perform.

I agree that Junghwa is gorgeous this comeback and her singing surprised me it has improved so much. Even live on sketchbook she sounded good. And, of course, Hyerin has never looked cuter.

Just finished watching Solji on duet song festival. If you haven't seen it I recommend it she so damn good.

I don't much pay attention to exid for the dancing but I think of all the stages I've seen lie has the best choreography so I think that is the one I would start off with.

Baek Jong Won top 3 chef king. It's actually a pretty good show although I just skip to the second half of each episode so I can watch Hani eating.

Hopefully she just had a scheduling conflict

Sorry, posted the wrong link somehow. Here is the correct link. They start at about 36 min. They perform Up and Down and LIE plus sing Drive me. http://kshow123.com/show/sketchbook-of-youheeyeul/episode-324.html

Sketchbook with English subs. EXID performed 3 songs. They start at about 36 min. They perform Up and Down and LIE plus sing Drive me. http://kshow123.com/show/sketchbook-of-youheeyeul/episode-324.html Also, EXID was on After School Club yesterday, but no Hani (sorry, I watched it live on V app so I don't have a video link).

Agreed. They are so talented. I just love this album.

I decided to go back and rewatch EXID Showtime (cuz I can't get enough EXID). Am I wrong, or is the song that LE is working on in the very beginning of Episode 1 "Cream" from the "Street" album? Oh, and another great win for the group!! I am so very glad for them! I really hope they get a fourth!

This video made me tear up just a bit. I remember the butbut video's of them dancing and giving hugs and being ignored... I'm so glad things are different for them now and I love seeing Hyerin getting some spotlight finally. I love this new album. It has a song for every mood and taste. I can't pick a favorite just like I can't pick a favorite EXID member (although I admit a huge love for yum yum). I do really want to have a song on the next album that showcases Hyerin's vocals - I think I've listened to her solo on King of Masked Singer about 15 times now. I feel so spoiled having 3 great vocalists in one group and I want to hear something from all of them, LOL.

LE shows again why she is one of the few kpop rappers that I actually enjoy listening to.

Two golds and a silver? I wonder if that is some kind of ISAC record. Regardless, it is an amazing achievement.

Archery and Wrestling. Outstanding! I can't wait for the video so I can watch it.

I never actually managed to answer that poll since I love all the girls. This week I think my bias might be Hyerin, but last week it was Hani, and the week before it was Solji... I can never decide, but happily, I don't have to.

KInda sort of off topic, but I saw this video posted on Asian Junkie. More and more I think that if I actually had a bias, it would be Hyerin. She's such a cute little potato. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJ5FD65wDdE

I'd love to see Junghwa on Dream Team. The girl can run! Beyond that my dream is for them to have a variety show of their own where their personalities can really shine.

I'd agree with this, although it was kdrama that got me interested in both kvariety and kpop.

I'm with you, that's my bold 2016 prediction.

My bold prediction for 2016 now that I think about it is that Hani's dating Junsu will make the group more popular. It looks like a lot of people who are fans of Junsu think it's a cute couple rather than getting upset. I believe that some Junsu fans who weren't EXID fans will give the group some love now. Of course, I also predicted that Hani wasn't going to get into a scandal in 2016 and you can see how that worked out...

Hani (and EXID by extension) will no doubt get crapped on by a bunch of crazed 13 year old fangirls - and probably not just Korean. I honestly don't give a flying rat's ass what they think. I'm happy for Hani. She's 23 years old and it's only natural for her to date (honestly I think most idols date but just keep it secret). Whether or not it will hurt the group's popularity and sales is something only time will tell.

Ah damn, I got misty eyed, too. It really was an incredibly special moment. And if that's how I felt, I can't even really imagine show the girls felt!
