[MV Review] SHINee - "1of1"


After over a year of waiting SHINee follow up the awesome "View" with the decent "1of1."


Onew is still incredible.


Would totally jump onyu.

There is no better to way to start a SHINee review, not even sorry. (I would leave it at that but seeing as I wasn't hired for my trolling abilities...)

"1of1" is just okay. That's it. It's not terrible it's not great. It's just pretty decent, and I'm inherently fine with that; however I'm used to SHINee's releases musically blowing me away and this just ain't it. This song is like bubble gum, it's starts off really nice but eventually you either get sick of the same flavor being in your mouth or the gum loses it's flavor and you have to eventually spit it out and wash it down with some refreshing ice water. The song starts off nice however the initial sound just isn't strong enough to sustain the rest of the song. Better luck next time guys.

The video is the highlight of this release by far. SM really nailed it with the early 1990s theme, and I'd find myself coming back to the MV just for the aesthetics (was this done on purpose? Hmmmm.) So if you're into perfectly executed retro themes, then you'll totally dig this music video. Everything down to the blank white set, pimp suits, baggy clothing and back up dancers who don't really have that much rhythm make this video almost look like something archived from the decade that is somehow very HD. The members are all styled great too.



Minho looks the most fantastic this comeback.

Bottom line if you love the 90s and that The New Kids On The Block sound then you'll love this. But if you really don't enjoy 90s fashion or the music then this won't be your favorite. It's definitely a standout comeback that's for sure, and the album ain't too shabby I linked "U Need Me" before, however some of my other favorite are "Feel Good", "Shift", and "Don't Stop".

Mamamoo Hwasa's sexual performance?

Pann : Mamamoo Hwasa, isn't this too much? 1. [+140, -5] It looks more sexual because she has a good body. It was Mamamoo's concert and it was +15. 2. [+95, -15] This is why they say women's enemy is women. You call it sexy when male idols rip their clothes off and do pelvic dances but it's a problem when a female idol does it? It only looks sexy and pretty. 3. [+85, -1] It would be considered too much if this was done on broadcast but it was a +15 concert. It's fine. 4. [+35, -0] It's still better than female idols' lolita appeal nowadays 5. [+26, -0] It looks more like that because the dress color is nude. And like in foreign countries, adult sexiness is better than short school uniforms and lolita. 6. [+23, -0] You never bought an album and yet you're complaining about this and that 7. [+22, -1] It's a concert anyways. Other male idols wear more sexual clothes. 8. [+21, -26] It looks a bit off...

Why Australian adverts need to learn from Korea

What I've learned whilst enjoying the k pop scene, is that Korean adverts do it better than Australia. Might be different for you, but down under, our ads are terrible. Take Sprite for example: Suzy for Sprite Ads for Sprite in Korea happen to include well-known idols and fan service. Do you get the point? Boobs. Fan service. Great, perfect, love it, I want more. Now. For comparison, let me show you how these ads are for Australia. No fan service. No well-known celebrities. No fan service. It's a wasted opportunity. If our ads actually had something worth watching in them, I would watch more TV, but they don't and so I won't. Are ads better in other places of the world? Or am I just not watching TV at the right times? It's also not just Sprite that takes use of fan service for their own goals. Kellogg's  has recently released photos of their new model. And it's a damn shame we don't utilize this in Australia.

Which female idol would make the best porn star?

It's no mystery that female K-pop idols are pretty fucking hot. But would being hot be enough for them to make it big in the porn industry (which probably won't happen anytime soon)? Well, obviously not, because if it were, I could just put in the names of all the members of every single girl group out there (with a few exceptions) and call it a day. But being a porn star takes much more than just looks and body, and you shall see how through this article. So here are the nominees, handpicked personally by me, in no particular order. (P.S. This is gonna be photo and gif heavy). (P.P.S., If you managed to get through this whole article without fapping once, you get a cookie.)                                            4MINUTE - HyunA Oh look, Hyuna's here! Shocker! Well, Hyuna's known to be the 'seductress' or whatever, but I won't disagree. This woman would make a straight gir...
