Guest 9jill9 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I used to think the same way but a lot of those idol boys seem so immature and self centered. More than anything, the whole Hyukjae incident turned me away from shipping in general. I did like Yoo Seung Ho and Lee Joong Ki. I am on my cell otherwise I would include their awesone photoshoots. For some reason I can see those pairing working too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was like watching 2 puppies. But my all time favorite right now is the JoU (Jo Jung Suk) couple. They have rapport, chemistry, and that indefinable something that just seems to click.

On the show she talked about her recent comeback and showed off her volubility.In their conversation, DJ Kim Chang Ryul expressed his awe saying, “I saw the magic trick with the chair. You suddenly disappear.”IU replied to his comment and said, “It’s a magic trick done with the chair,” and added, “But I can’t do the trick anymore because the chair broke,” showing her disappointment.DJ Kim Chang Ryul asked how the chair broke and IU answered, “My clothes got caught on the chair while I was trying to do the trick. The chair fell as I fell,” explaining how the chair broke.Nonetheless, DJ Kim Chang Ryul cheered up the mood and made IU laugh by saying, “Well, since you can’t disappear anymore, people can see more of IU.”=Soompi= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mumfu Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Annyeong yeoreobon,A very warm greetings to you from down under. It's 8am Tues 22/10 the sun is shining brightly, the birds are singing, my lawn is covered in daisies so Spring has finally come and I have IU's Modern Times songs playing, ( still waiting for my Special Edition ), what a lovely way to start the day.I see there is a buzz about the PM drama, I am sure confirmation of the cast will be released this week as time is of the essence. I too wondered if the postponement of uri IU's activities in Japan was an indicator of her acceptance for the drama role. If the answer is YES then she obviously has good reasons for such a decision. This drama will put her with another cast of incredibly talented actors, and hopefully a better PD and Script writer ( who will do justice to the plot and actors. ) from which she will learn more of this craft and really strengthen her skills. Just as IU will learn from her colleagues about 'acting' she will charm all with her personality ( down-to-earth, caring, honesty, respectful, humility ), her spirit ( purity of heart, laughter, warmth, courage, spunk, kindness ) and work ethic ( focus, commitment, enthusiasm, diligence ). There is so much more to say about uri IU ( talent, values etc ), which I am sure they will discover. IU will give just as much as she gets, this drama will be advantageous for her on many levels.As a Uaena I trust in her decisions what ever they maybe and I will always support her choices. The challenge I face is learning to be 'Patient' as I am always searching/craving for news of uri IU. Fortunately for me/we have an abundance of goodies with the MT Album release and the promotional circuit she is doing. So I for one look forward to seeing her grace our small screens once again, earlier than expected I must admit, but I'm a happy Uaena for it.Welcome to new members @ioi and @armourinverse kumawo for your support of IU.

Guest mumfu Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Yeoreobon I don't know who this person is, but this is an excellent review, especially the last sentence. IU is a solo artist and pop idol from South Korea. Her third full length studio album, the somewhat ironically- titled Modern Times, dropped a couple of weeks ago and has been the talking point for many listeners of South Korean music. The twenty year old singer – real name Lee Ji-eun – has made new ground in Korean popular music by creating an album based on jazz, swing and Latin music. This is a huge step away from IU’s previous work and the work of many other contemporary artists in the Korean pop music scene. It seems the 1920s revival ushered in by the likes of Michael Bublé, Boardwalk Empire and Baz Luhrmann’s adaptation of The Great Gatsby was not limited to the Western world. It is because of this that Modern Times makes a great listen for anybody with a taste for cross-cultural music.The earliest song which stands out on the album is the second track, named “Everybody Has Secrets”. This song features Ga-In from the girl group Brown Eyed Girls who (as of this moment) 568,173,299 of you will recognise from PSY’s “Gentleman” video. The track has a very noticeable bossa nova edge to it, complimented by soft yet husky vocals from both singers.Following this comes “Between the Lips (50cm)”. The track has the aura of a lounge singer in a smoky bar in a film noir, making it one of the most interesting songs on the album. Although a short piece, it stands out because of the beautiful and (again) husky vocals by IU and the wonderful, slow string and piano arrangements by the album’s musicians.The two most remarkable song on the album come side by side; single “The Red Shoes” and the title track. “The Red Shoes” is definitely the catchiest track on the album, where IU displays her vocal range backed by sweeping string instruments and horns. This optimistic single reflects the tone of the album, or at least what IU was aiming for with it. It is an uplifting and spirited track which takes nods from a spectrum of genres from the era IU is attempting to portray whilst maintaining a strictly Parisian feel, reflected by the song’s music video. Much of the same can be said for its successor track “Modern Times”. This cheerful nugget was described by our own Editor-in-Chief Alex Quinn as having the feeling of a Pixar soundtrack, and you can absolutely see why. The characteristic oboe and clarinet you’d hear in those movies are at play here, whilst IU’s vocals supplement the music with a nostalgic and enthusiastic finishing point.Sadly, however, this is where the album peaks. The remainder is often samey, and whilst I do still enjoy listening to it, none of the residual tracks have quite the same effect as those two songs. That said, IU’s vocals and the orchestral composition of the record lingers, making the album worth listening to in full. For fans of Korean music, they’ll be pleased to hear the voices of SHINee’s Jonghyun on “A Gloomy Clock”, Yang Hee-eun on “Daydream” and the award-winning Choi-Baek Ho on “Walk With Me, Girl”.On the whole, Modern Times is a great album. Language barrier aside, it’s possible to enjoy beautiful singing and musical arrangement as much as this. Much like G-Dragon’s Coup D’etat, this record does not carry the watermarks of Korean pop music which makes for a breath of fresh air for fans of that scene. The album pushes the boundaries in a manner unseen in both the West and the East, and as a result really makes good for a listen. Modern Times should be a candidate for one of the best foreign language albums of the year, and should be a welcome reminder that pop music and elegance are not incompatible.★★★★★★★★☆☆ #modern times #music #kpop #review #8/10 #8 #eight #POSTED BY: KIERAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akinahana89 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 I agree that IU should steer clear of dating idols and date actors instead. Male idol fans are batsh-- crazy. @-) @-) @-) But... if she does happen to have feelings for one... Well, what can you do? lol. The heart wants what the heart wants.So whenever IU meets that special someone, if she hasn't already (JoU! JoU! JoU! Kekeke), then I will just be happy that she is happy. And if the guy turns out to be an idol, I will have my shield and pitchfork at the ready to defend her from nasty netizens and online posters who have nothing better to do than to bash a celebrity couple.
