Jonghwan's bade has already been saved, as for MYNAME you could get the badge if you have a spare spot? or maybe post in the myname thread and I'm sure someone will pick it up :3

 

No its okay. To just take a badge to save it, would be kind of wrong. Unfortunately, i have other idols i like more than JunQ and Chaejin. I am just going to be honest about my choices and there are just too many idols to save all of them. Still, it makes me sad to see their badges go. :unsure:

2015 (not sure if we should do this yet as it may be too early to tell if they're nugu but anyways)

Heart B - Missing You

Romeo - Lovesick

UP10TION - So, Dangerous

 

Ahhh this bring back memories. I am just going to comment on all those nugu groups:

 

2010

F.Cuz had an interesting start. I promoted them a lot. "NO ONE" was my favorite song, after that i lost interest in them. They disappeared more and more and their songs got less catchy. :unsure:

ZE:A ! Oh Yesss. Big ZE:A fan and the first songs were really really good. Then they did too much femine-elegant-glamour-style  when fans already demanded Rap and Bad Boys. I saw Ze:a ONCE doing bad boy image and they totally succeeded, which makes me wonder how popular ZE:A could have been if they did more of this Bad Boy / Rap Style. Bad management.

 

2011

My Name Message was probably one of THE BEST Debut Songs ever. I kept listening to this song til my ears bleed. hehe. Always liked MyName but when they went to Japan so early in their career, they kind of ruined their chances as a Kpop group. They transformed into J-Pop (shortly after their debut) so many Kpop fans ignored them for a long time. That was a bad idea, they should have stayed in Korea or just go to Japan for a short time.

X-5 ohhhh my god. I just loved Ghun ! He is my hero ! The end of X-5 was the most painful moment in my Kpop life. I still miss you, Ghun ! Come back, you SexGod ! I need Youuuu ! X-5 did a lot of things right. They were the 1st group to do ADULT PERFORMANCES. Many idol groups today do very sexy moves on stage, but X-5 was the first. :)

 

2012

Big Star Hot Boy was really strange. I promoted them and tried to make them popular but every Kpop fan was like "wtf is this strange MV ?" So i think Hot Boy was a bad start and also its a bit weird to have a BraveSound Idol Group. I know that Bravesound wrote a lot of famous successful hit songs for other idol groups, but when they started their own group it felt like they had NO IDEA how to actually manage an Idol Group or how to build up an Idol Image.

100% make their debut in a variety-show as the "little brothers" of Teen Top. That was a bad idea. It gave them this wrong image as a weaker version of Teen Top. I like the group but they have problems to really shine. They lost members, its just a very painful process and i just feel bad for them. 100% is a sad story for me.

C-Clown a group that has good style, good songs, good looks but somehow they never got popular. Why ? i dont know. Its a total mystery to me. Some of the members are SUPERHOT and still, something holds them back. The management is bad ? Their entertainment skills in Kshows is only average ? oh well, i dont know.

 

2013

Boys Republic i watched their debut MV as a non-fan. I doubted them, but the more i listened to the song and the more i watched the MV and watched Boys Republic Vids, the more i  liked them. Now i am a fan ! Unfortunately, their latest MVs are not really my style. They are going in the wrong direction for me. I still support them, though.

Speed Arghhh, i love them so much and its so painful that they are (just) a nugu group. They are awesome in so many ways. I bought the "Superior" album right after their debut. I like the style. I loved "ITS OVER" even though many Kpop fans are not happy with it. I think "ITS OVER" has a very unique style and that is what makes it fun. I guess i just have a weird taste. haha.

 

2014

Hotshot and Madtown are promising groups. I like them both. Its too early to give detailed comment about them. I keep watching them and i am looking forward to their future work. :)

 

 

 

Top 5 Debut MVs: (my opinion)

01. My Name Message

02. Speed Its over

03. Ze:a Mazeltov

04. Boys Republic Party Rock

05. X-5 Dont put on a show

which members would we make first?

 

I'm happy to help out, not with buying badges though since I'm trying to buy forms for Romeo, UP10TION, and DGNA members so my won will run out before I can even think about ToppDogg :S but I can notify when they're available, they sell really slowly atm :3

also I can help with finding images, mock making, voting, and general organisation things :3

 

What ? They sell slow ? I ve been trying to buy 1 since i joined the forum and its ALWAYS sold out. They add a quantity of 5 each time but i always miss that. i guess its sold out within 1-5 minutes. Its really ridicolous. Stupid System.

 

I can look up the day when they restock 5 items but i dont know which time it is. (And especially my timezone, so i would need to know what time in korea for example, so i can calculate what time that would be in germany). Then MAYBE i could be online right at the moment when the 5 items are added and click very fast to get 1.

 

Anyway, i already gave up hope to EVER get my hands on even 1 of those badge-maker items. :unsure:

it used to sell out that fast, now it can be up to 5 hours before it sells out for some reason, guess the demand is not as high anymore. Anyays I can quote you here as well when they restock. Next restock should be around 12 KST on this friday.

 

Okay Thank You. :) maybe i can finally buy 1 and make a nugu Group Badge.

which group are you thinking of?

 

I dont know yet. i make up my mind IF i ever get a badge item. I still doubt i ever get one.

 

Right now i consider badges for:

- Boys in Groove B.I.G. + Gunmin Badge (but not sure if i get enough badge keeper for it)

- ZEA member Moon Junyoung Badge (but i feel like ZEA is almost over so it might be waste)

- Monsta X Kihyun Badge (but thats unlikely bc MonstaX have enough OH fans who will make badges for them anyway)

- HotShot ? Maybe.

- JJCC Eco ? Maybe.

- Speed Jungwoo ? (but i feel like Speed is almost over so it might be waste)

 

but thats just a few badges i have in mind. Nothing is decided yet.

i just got up at 4:30 AM and lurked in the OH shop for almost 1 hour, reloading the page about 50 times.

When the 5 items were added, they were gone within 1 minute. Luckily, i clicked like a maniac and got 1 of the 5.

 

*gasp* *gasp* Who made these INSANE Rules ?  :derp:

 

Anyway, Thanks for the exact time.

HURRAY ! A victory for all NUGU !!

Hello Hello. I see there is a thread that I can join and follow. I love nugu's a lot.

Nice to meet y'all.

 

Welcome to the nugu cave, the last hope of all forgotten nugu groups ! We, who dont give up on talented rookies, just because they are not casted (and pushed) by a big company. Support and spread the love. Arghhhh, we just lost C-Clown. Lets try to save some other groups before its too late. I am actually quite worried about some of them.  :unsure:

i just watched BigFlo - Obliviate MV for the 1st time. WHAT IS THIS ? The most confusing weirdest Kpop MV i ever watched. The song itself is chaotic, the MV is just a crazy mix of costumes, outfit changes, background changes, the styling changes all the time which makes it even weirder. Its like someone mixed 5 different Kpop groups + 5 different songs + 5 camera recordings + 5 different music styles into 1 MV together. WHAT ?

 

:wut: I dont get it.

Snowdjinn,iKont are NOT nugu lmaoooo

 

i dont pay much attention to them so to me they are pretty much no-names and it feels to me like no one knows them. But HEY, for me, Winner is also a group that i dont care about and i could easily label them as nugus. LOL. If i dont read about groups, If i dont notice a lot of fan support, then it already feels like nugu. I do NOT follow Kpop news or anything like that.

 

I am also not sure if Monsta X and Uniq are nugus. BUT the problem is,  If we keep saying "no nugu" there are not enough groups left for awards. The stuff i listed above was all i could come up with.

 

And MY NAME is also a very close call. If we have to take out MyName, Monsta X, Uniq then we are left with... how many boygroups in total ?

 

Maybe we should list all groups that we officially count as nugu groups.

Lol I don't think you need to worry about any kind of "slippery slope" just because ikon aren't counted. There is a line somewhere but they are nowhere near it.

 

Anyway why are you even trying to debate about it when you just admitted you don't follow K-pop news and don't know which groups are popular anyway? Just trust us.

 

Ahh back in the old days, it was so easy.

 

You had Shinhwa, DBSK, SS501 and Superjunior and that was it. The only nugu was Paran. hahaha. Good old days. :)

 

And BTW; i officially declare EXO a nugu group:smile:
