[Album Review] Super Junior - 10th Studio Album "The Renaissance"

Wow! My first ever Super Junior album was way more I could've ever expected?! They're so good and versatile - I missed out for sure!

This album has basically no weak point, that's nuts. My final ranking for this album changed a bit, with "Closer" leaving the playlist ranks and "More Days with You" joining the playlist instead!

What are your thoughts on this album so far? Also be on ...

[Live Stages] Super Junior - Let's Dance + Charm of Life + On & On @SS7

(Thank you to 42ariadna for the request in April! Have a great day :D)

My second ever SuJu live stage and I'm mad in love with their stage presence and how they can animate everyone to join in on their fun!

When the last stage was a vocal powerhouse, singing 'Sorry Sorry Answer' live (or dancing to it if you are Eunhyuk), this one is just pure fun and I'm here for it. One day I defi...

[Variety Show] Fact in Star - Episode 180 [Weki Meki "OOPSY" Era]

Aaaand this is already the last Fact in Star episode for now :( We end it off with Weki Meki, one of the biggest crackhead groups of 'em all!

I just love Yoojung man. She's the absolute crackiest crackhead (does that even make sense?) I can think of and this episode absolutely proved it again for me lmao.

And I was surprised, I actually did quite well member wise :o

[Live Stages] PURPLE KISS - Overdose Cover (EXO-K) @M2

Oh. my. GOD. This was a BANGER of a performance. I also used this video to fanboy over Purki a lot, so beware lmaooo.

Yesterday was absolutely the best day of my life. I was so happy the whole day and almost in denial that that just happened. I still can't really believe it and it's making me smile T__T.
I thought their choreo was great btw, it was really powerful and technical. I rewa...

[Variety Show] Fact in Star - Episode 176 [SECRET NUMBER "Who Dis?" Era]

Omo, we have new MCs?! Yves and (I think) Jaehyun? That's interesting.. also the studio is new? I need time to adjust now lol

I did like the segments they had with Secret Number but it does feel a little bit more professional and "staged" than before with MC Jun. I liked him a lot. :FeelsBadMan:

[K-Drama] W: Two Worlds - Episode 9

Yoooo... this straight up turned into a super good show in the span of one episode! I'm actually stoked to finish this now.

Thank god the writers had a moment of genius here with this episode. Big props also to the director for those camera shots (especially the one in the hospital), those were amazing.

Finna a great K-Drama now, let's get it!

[Award Show] 30th Seoul Music Awards 2021 Performances

And here we go! The last award show of 2020 (basically) that we can watch. Already watched all the others now (actually the first time I ever did this in my Kpop career).

Both MAMA and partly MMA I have watched on my own with friends. I might do this with ya'll next year too, but not sure yet.

Performances I watched in this Reaction:

[Live Stages] 'Believe' by Ailee | PGI.S Special Stage 2021

A lil bit of a different stage today, but you guys knew I had to come through with the Ailee content as soon as there is some! 

She's absolutely insane live and although at times there was a live recording playing in this performance I believe, it was still nuts. Gotta love her tone and power <3

[Survival Show] High School Rapper 4 - Episode 4

I just can't believe it man... four of my favorites were eliminated, what the f? The others who are still in better deliver now!

Ayayay... I'm not gonna say who was eliminated before you watch it, but you'll see for yourself once you do. Let me know your thoughts on the eliminations. I'm mind boggled and beyond disappointed tbh. Either because the person didn't deliver to a level I expect...

[Variety Show] Fact in Star - Episode 149 [BVNDIT "Dumb" Era]

Onto BVNDIT, CHUNG HA's labelmates from MNH! I really love their personalities so much, they're hella fun and really talented - underrated af!

This was a short one and that's kinda sad to see, that they only got like 25min + the performance. But I made the best out of it and it was very enjoyable to say the least. After PENTAGON, this was probably the most fun episode and here it's mainly...

[Album Review] IU - 5th Studio Album "LILAC"

It has been around 4 years since IU's last studio album and now she's back with her 5th, "LILAC". Lemme tell you: this one is FANTASTIC!

A wide range of different styles, especially in the 2nd half of the album (which surprised me a lot) makes for a very diverse album and one of my highest rated ones for 2021 so far. I am very happy with this release and I'm gonna stream this album lots t...

[K-Drama] W: Two Worlds - Episode 8

My goodness, we are pressing the "replay" button now huh? This was somewhat expected but still very abrupt - we're only halfway through?!?

Not sure what to expect now. I have assumptions of how the story is gonna play out and what might happen, but this show kinda loves to throw curveballs every episode so we'll see.

[Japanese MV] Dreamcatcher - Eclipse (Anime Opening & Lyrics)

This is the most anime opening song any Kpop group has made ever - straight up. And I'm not sure that's the best thing. Gahyeon and Siyeon snapped tho

I think I go into enough detail in the vid as to why I think this was somewhat generic. It's probably still my 2nd fav japanese song from them, with NO MORE being even lower than that and of course Endless Night far far above it.

What...

[Japanese MV] CHANMINA - BIJIN MV

Oh. My. God. This music video, this song and most importantly this woman IS NUTS. I am straight up dead ... WHAT WAS THAT???

This was soooo much fun. What a queen. Enough said.

[Japanese MV] yukaDD ft. MOMO of TWICE - Superhero MV

I'm a month late to this but I figured it was still worth a watch. Momo was dancing this effortlessly, much respect to her.

Although I only realized that it was her dancing 30 seconds or so into the video. yukaDD seems to not be in the video
