Snuper - "Platonic Love", "You=Heaven", and "It's Raining"

This isn't a review. It's more like a recommendation.
Snuper's pretty awesome.

For the past year I've said that Up10tion are the most promising male nugus. And I still stand by that statement however Snuper would be a very close second.

For one, they're consistent. Their theme is 1980s and they've done well to keep that running.


"Platonic Love" is probably the same sound someone thinks when they think 80s. It's very awesome, very high bar and has a very hard dance vibe. It has all of those fairy dust-sounding keys of the 1980s and a cool sounding chorus. And yes it does sound like that one a-ha song that K-pop loves to take inspiration from, making it that much more awesome.


"You=Heaven" keeps that same upbeat 80s sound, my only problem with it is that it takes for fucking ever to get somewhere. However when it starts to pick up and truly take off, it's still a pretty good, dare say, great song. 


Again, "It's Raining" is still 80s but it's an entirely new concept. Unlike their past two cute concepts, "It's Raining" is way more dark in both looks and sounds while still keeping a punchy feel to the whole song. It reminds me a bit of Infinite's "The Chaser" (one of K-pop's best songs ever.) However this song does something really cool and unique by having the vocals fade out during the chorus and pick back up during the verses and bridge. When I first heard this I was instantly hooked.

This year has been particularly busy for me, so I haven't had a whole lot of time to dive into a lot of nugus. But I am certainly glad I made some time for Snuper, they have some real potential and I'd recommend them to anyone who's looking for consistent male rookies or someone who wants a break from the current trends a lot of boy groups are recycling these days.

Overall Snuper has made a great start and have made my end of the year favorite's list that much harder to make.

Vernon on Show Me The Money 4

Pann : One of top 3 visuals on Show Me The Money, Vernon 1. [+85, -18] Woah I thought he was Dicaprio. His face is a waste to be an idol. 2. [+66, -11] I'm a fan of Dicaprio so I got annoyed when my friend said he looks like him but he really does... He's a flower boy. I watched Show Me The Money for Mino but Vernon ㅠㅠ <3 I'll be cheering for you! 3. [+57, -2] He grew up well 4. [+34, -3] On a Naver article, the top comment was, "he's honestly really handsome" ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 5. [+27, -6] He's a stan attractor. Why do people say Woozi is the stan attractor? 6. [+25, -3] SM will like his face 7. [+25, -2] Handsome 8. [+24, -2] Vernon raps well. Listen to his mixtape. He's still in high school but has so much potentials... Jessie approved him. 9. [+23, -3] This kid is him 11. [+16, -1] He's also considered handsome among average white guys 12. [+16, -2] There are so many Seventeen posts recently... I wanted to be the only one that knows them ㅋㅋ

It's a miracle: Hyunseung looks good in his latest MV

Hyunseung mostly doesn't look like a freak in the video for his solo debut, "Ma First." Mostly. It's difficult being a Hyunseung fan.* First off, he didn't get to be in Big Bang, so we'll always be plagued with the question "What if?" You could've been a "Loser" too, Hyunseung. ... Oh, but I guess you already are. Nm. Then when he's with his fellow Beast members, he hardly gets any screen time, unless he's doing some unattractive Michael Jackson ripoff dance. And how can we forget the time he got a massive boner during that Troublemaker stage? Hope Mom wasn't watching this perf. Top all that with the fact that he's styled like an escaped mental patient most of the time, and it's easy to see why he's not topping many people's bias lists. The struggle is real. There was relief for Hyunseung fans this week, though, as the video for his latest song, "Ma First," was released — and the boy looked hot. Rea...

Seventeen Vernon's visual

When Vernon was in elementary school: Present: Pann : Is this when Seventeen Vernon was in elementary school? 1. [+65, -16] He really looks like Dicaprio, fuck. He's the handsomest idol I've seen so far. A Western visual does wonders... 2. [+44, -2] He's mixed but he's more comfortable with Korean because he's been living in Korea since he was young 3. [+33, -2] <3 4. [+24, -1] I've lived in the US and his visual is also considered very handsome among Americans. I'm about to become his fan ㅋㅋ 5. [+24, -1] He's honestly a top idol visual. He raps and his voice is really good, too. 6. [+21, -1] The more I see him, the more he looks like a foreign actor 7. [+20, -0] He's still in grade 11. He'll get handsomer in the future. He looks like Leo. 8. [+18, -0] Be his fan 9. [+17, -0] His visual is too good to be an idol... So handsome 10. [+17, -0] He reminds me of Leo's legendary days. He's so handsome.
