[MV Review] BLACKPINK - "Stay"



Blackpink has released two new songs that are actually good. Naturally I'm going to review the lesser of the two since bad news should always come before good news.


When Blackpink first debuted I didn't mind "Boombayah" and hated "Whistle"; after listening to them a few more times I came around to liking both, however they weren't anything great in my ears. But the girls are fun, pretty, talented an deserve more than YGs shitty superiority-media play so I'd be on the look out for the group should they release anything in the future that was truly great.

"Stay" is the "Whistle" of this release, but's no where near the same level of yolo-trap lord. It's an okay acoustic ballad that utilizes a softer side to the group. The verses are quite mellow and melancholy, however they build into an upbeat and peppy chorus that gets enhanced with harmonica. It won't be everyone's cup of tea however I can see it doing well with the ballad crowd. As for me, I'll listen to it on the album but it's not something I see myself purposely seeking out unless I want to feel like I'm in a McDonald's commercial. 

The music video holds quite a few cool scenes, my favorite being the one of Jisoo on a swing made out of chains and a skateboard in the middle of some post-apocalyptic city. The rest of the video follows the same trend of pretty and visually stimulating tumblr aesthetic. The girls beauty is no joke here.

Overall this was chill and pleasant enough, it didn't put me off as quickly as "Whistle" (which gets an acoustic version on this mini) however it's far from my favorite Blackpink song.


I'll just leave this cool shot here.

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.

Pump up the pearly volume - big boobs in k-pop guide part 4

The post that k-pop's tits perverts have waited patiently for all year is finally here, it's the return of the Kpopalypse big boobs guide! Who can possibly keep up with the amount of big boobs in k-pop?  Kpopalypse, that's who!  Read on as Kpopalypse brings you the joys of objectification and superficial fetishism once again! Actually to be completely honest, I have trouble keeping up with new groups much the same as anybody, especially as I don't tend to pay much attention to the individuals in very new groups, so that's where the help of trusty caonimas came in.  I asked readers in a recent survey to nominate entrants for this list, and received several hundred responses which I will now distill in the following post.  Thanks to all those of you who helped me out here - but note that most of you picked girls who had in fact already been covered in previous episodes of this series, so make sure you visit the following links to double-check the trufax ...

Girl's Day's short shorts

Pann : Girl's Day's short shorts today 1. [+68, -1] Her butt line is showing 2. [+50, -17] People are so mean. Other idols dress as short as them but Girl's Day is always the target. 3. [+49, -2] They're not even wearing underpants 4. [+36, -0] I'm a fan but the stylist should've had them wear underpants ㅠㅠ What is this... Please wear underpants on the stage ㅠㅠ 5. [+32, -4] Why are you guys criticizing Girl's Day when their stylist is dressing them? 6. [+30, -0] Is Girl's Day's stylist crazy? I can see their butts. This honestly looks dirty. Girl's Day's stylist needs to bow their head and reflect. 7. [+24, -0] There was even a picture of a member with her full butt showing. I won't post the picture because it's too embarrassing and sexual. They don't seem to be wearing underwear, either. Usually, female idols wear underpants when they wear short stuff... I don't understand why they're doing this when they're popular e...
