I love Mr Mr it has a nice beat and I liked Tiffany's high note, I'm surprised that not many people liked it...

The high note is good but some people don't like it because it's Tiffany who do it that's all. It's like that everytime there is a new song now, people bash her because more lines than their favs. It's like they don't want her in the group anymore..idk.. so they just bash her everytime she sings/dances/talks now.

 

Anyway it's my last post on this thread, bye and long live queen Tiffany

Don't post here often but wanted to share that sone post (she/he's living in Korea)

 

"Any thoughts on the d&g outfit shenanigans?? They are so annoying. Every chance people get to hate on snsd, they do it. It's so frustrating to be a sone sometimes. Lol. And i've just been one for like 3 or 4 months.

Hihi. First of all, welcome! I say this every time, but I'm jealous you're a new Sone. Things have been very stressful all year, not just in late September, and I wish I had your fresh eyes and heart. It can be frustrating sometimes. But remember what the wise DJ Sunny said on her Instagram in late August, back when things behind the scenes were probably at their worst. Don't stand behind them quietly frustrated, don't get hurt by standing in front of them like a protective shield against haters, stand next to them instead.

 

About those outfits. Korea is of course a very different culture than those in the west, and understanding the business principle of gaeseon is helpful in understanding things like the Dolce & Gabbana incident at KBS Gayo Daechukjae. It was inherited from Japan. It means seeking out imperfections and working together as a team to eradicate them. The Korean version of this extends to intellectual property. There's a belief that ideas don't belong to any one person or organization, and that it is perfectly acceptable to take the ideas of others, then build upon them to make them more perfect. Samsung is the most famous example of this: they like Apple products, but they think they could be better. So they use the iPhone as a springboard to create the Galaxy. A individualist calls this stealing, a collectivist calls it "continuous improvement."

 

Stylist unnie saw the D&G original, but she didn't like the wide-open collar or the black blouses or the pomade. She added bright red lipstick, and styled the girls' hair freely. When confronted with the similarity, she called it a homage. "If it was so similar that some say it is a copy," she said, "I guess the labour of the stylist team manually creating the design all night is being complimented?"

 

Right there, see? There it is. 개선. It's not a copy to her, it's an improvement on the original. She believes that the most important thing was the labour that the team put into it, the added value. This wasn't the correct answer for some, and many knets didn't see what the big deal was. English-speaking K-Pop Twitter went nuts, once again trying to inflict western thought patterns on eastern entertainment.

 

Me, I thought the girls were ravishingly beautiful that night. And I think the strapped heels were a nice touch."
