LE SSERAFIM performed Easy for the first time at the showcase

 


theqoo 

-So goodㅠㅠ

-The song is slow but the dance seems too rushed.

-It's really good, isn't it? Always looking forward to LE SSERAFIM's performance and songs.

-It's good but sounds like a B-side track.

-Give them some pretty clothes...

-The song is too slow but the dance is intense. Even though the dance is intense, the song feels weak.

-The song and performance are good, but... feels like they could have put more effort into capturing the feeling of the song.

-We'll have to wait for the music shows to judge. For now, the song is putting me to sleep.

-The song's okay, but the choreography isn't great. Hard to watch.

-The song and the dance don't match.

-It's not the style of song I was expecting, but it seems like it'll do well.

-Just like with any group, you have to watch music shows rather than showcases to know for sure. The outfits today weren't to my liking... I think they're trying a new genre, so maybe they'll loosen up after appearing on music shows. For now, the song and performance are good.

New Jeans' living room that was revealed on Anderson C's Instagram

 


I received a request to style the New Jeans members' dormitory. It was from CEO Min Hee-jin.

The contact itself was surprising, but what particularly caught me off guard was that the space to be styled was the members' dormitory. Although I've styled various artists' spaces before, I've never had the experience of incorporating original design pieces into an idol dormitory. The fact that the agency CEO wanted to decorate the idol members' dormitory with designer furniture was a fresh shock.

It was the first meeting with Min Hee-jin and the five New Jeans members. "Hey guys, show them you the furniture you like," said Min Hee-jin, as each member showed photos of furniture they had collected on their phones. Despite their young age, each of the five members had their own furniture preferences, and it was interesting to see that they all had different tastes. What was especially impressive was that the photos they showed were not online reference images but ones they had personally taken with their phones. Seeing the members, who are always busy, diligently browsing and studying furniture with Min Hee-jin over several days was quite a sight.

The situation here is the members were about to move to a new dormitory with each member having their own space. In the midst of their busy domestic and international activities, there could have been an option to entrust the space to a professional. However, Min Hee-jin allowed the members to personally select and purchase the furniture for their rooms, even if it took time. They spent three hours going around the showroom, looking at, touching, experiencing, and discussing furniture. It wasn't just a casual glance; seeing them asking questions and carefully examining everything made me feel like they weren't shopping but attending a class.

While each member decorated their own room, Min Hee-jin was responsible for selecting the furniture for the shared living room and dining area. Some members preferred a wood feel with signs of age, some liked a pop and metallic feel, some prioritized the functionality of comfortable furniture, some preferred the artistic elements of furniture, and some preferred witty and transformable furniture. Reflecting these diverse tastes to select furniture for the living room and dining area was undoubtedly a challenging task.

Min Hee-jin took on the task easily. Instead of grasping the common denominator of the five tastes and finding furniture that incorporated them well, her focus was on having furniture in the living room and dining area that reflected each member's taste 'beautifully.' If each charm exists individually and those charms harmonize without conflicting, the mixture can be more attractive than a state where everything is organized around a single theme. Rather than harmonizing tastes like chemical compounds, harmonizing them like mixtures, and finding beauty and order in that mixture. I couldn't help but think, 'Perhaps that's the way New Jeans exists.'

She was like a mother to New Jeans who showed New Things. One day, she spent an hour and a half carefully selecting the fabric for the sofa and dining chair, which the members would sit on every day. Decorating the dormitory where the members live with such care and quality... It would be impossible without a sincere desire for the members to learn and grow. Living with original furniture, the members will consciously or unconsciously realize the powerful influence that great design has on life and rest.

Watching Min Hee-jin cherish and nurture the New Jeans members made me rethink how to cherish and nurture Anderson's team members. CEO, thank you sincerely for contemplating and decorating precious spaces with Anderson, I am truly grateful.

+ Before that, Daniel's room was revealed.

-Just stay quiet...

-Why are you acting like this, seriously...?

-Wait, he's not the one who should be saying that

-I really have nothing to say...

-Seriously, he's still doing what people his age did 10 years ago.

-Oh, I feel ashamed...

-He shouldn't be treating his fans this way

-Why are you doing this? Do you find it fun to receive criticism?

-Whether the swearing actually happened or not, it's not proper to treat fans like this. Seriously, it's absurd.

-That's very childish of him...

-What does he plan to do after ZB1 finishes promoting?ㅠㅠ What does he expect from acting like this...

-Is this his response to the controversy??? What is the agency doing,,,

-Someone please stop him.

Spin off of Hospital Playlist, Wise Resident Life, drops their teaser




theqoo

-No matter how much it's a spin-off, the title doesn't really attract me..ㅋㅋ

-Go Yoon-jung really stands out.

-I was really looking forward to this writer, but now I don't want to watch it anymore.ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅠㅠ Bad timing.

-Just like I can't watch detective dramas anymore, I feel the same about medical dramas. They've made people too cool, it's cringy.

-It's really turned into a fantasy drama.

-The timing is awful..

-It seems interestingㅋ like Marvel.

-I have high expectations for Go Yoon-jung...

-If the ending is all of them opening a dermatology clinic in Gangnam together, it might be realistic~

-The drama, the writer, and the actors haven't really done anything wrong, but I don't feel like watching it. Right now, doctors just seem like a selfish group filled with a sense of privilege and superiority.

-Sometimes it feels like the writer is dwelling in their own fantasies.

-Doctors are always the protagonists, right? In reality, they're just worried about their own rice bowl, leaving patients behind and always protected by nurses.

-There are a lot of unfamiliar(?) actors appearing, so I'm really happy.

Hanteo Music Awards descended into chaos due to a poop incident

 

Someone near the fence f*cking shat on the floor. Literally shat. 


There were no traces of shit. It just seemed like someone had pooped in their pants.
I have never seen such thing in my entire life.
But seriously, the smell was not just at the level of a fart, it was extremely strong and persistent.
F*ck... It was so f*cking funny that I almost vomited.

I can't believe this is f*cking happening
-Does this make sense? F*ck. I'm trying to f*cking breathe. 
-I mean... F*ck, who just shat their pants?
-Someone shat their pants in the standing section. The smell is f*cking insane. 

Fans are all crying as they endure the scene of someone peeing in public in the middle of A Area... Stop the whole show!!! 

Someone peed in public.
No, this is not just your typical 'peeing in public'.

Someone was trying to go to the restroom but got blocked by security guards and other fans, she didn't realize and ended up shitting her pants. That's why the area around there have a strong smell of poopㅜㅜ She left behind only the smell of poop

It's f*cking funny how the singers are blocking their noses nowㅠ
Looks like the smell has spread to the singers' section too.
Just how much she pooped... I can't even imagine how much she pooped.

pann
[+280][-12]

1. [+294][-2] Imagine how traumatized she is if she accidentally shat her pants because she couldn't hold any longer as she tried to leave the venue because she was blocked...

2. [+279][-3] It's not funny, I feel sorry for her... Can't they just step aside a bit....

3. [+243][-1] Seriously, if it was an accident, it's really pitiful... I can't imagine, poor person.

4. [+165][-3] Wait, but apparently, before the person who pooped, there was someone who peed tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The whole show just turned into a toilet award ceremony.

5. [+162][-1] Oh, just imagining pooping in front of your favorite singer while they're holding their nose, it would be a real trauma.. It's really so pitiful.

6. [+60][-0] Seeing someone poop and pee like that really shows how disorganized things are... Of course, she should've gone to the restroom beforehand before entering the venue, but it's kind of pitiful.

7. [+54][-1] I don't understand those who mock her... It's just so awfulㅠ She was trying to leave but couldn't, it's just a mistake.

8. [+ 53][-0] You know the type of stomachache that hurts so bad, you can't control holding it in ㅠ.. I'm sure she must have endured as much as she could, it's really so sadㅜ

9. [+52][-1] When will poop stories stop being funny...

"Doctor Slump" starring Park Hyung-sik and Park Shin-hye suffers a significant drop in ratings from 6.7% to 3.9%... Can they recover?

 

The JTBC weekend drama "Doctor Slump," starring Park Hyung-sik and Park Shin-hye, stumbled over the Lunar New Year holiday. While it achieved a peak rating of 6.7%, it suffered setbacks. Can it recover its viewer ratings?

"Dr. Slump" started off well, inheriting the momentum from the successful "Welcome to Samdal-ri" which ended with a peak rating of 12.4%. Its first episode recorded a rating of 4.1%, followed by 5.1% (2nd episode), 5.1% (3rd episode), and 6.7% (4th episode). However, the ratings for the 5th and 6th episodes aired during the Lunar New Year holiday took a nosedive. The 5th episode on February 10th garnered a rating of 3.7%, showing a significant drop. The following day's episode saw a slight increase of 0.2% compared to the previous day.

Competing against "Doctor Slump" are MBC's Friday-Saturday drama "Knight Flower", SBS's Friday-Saturday dramas "Flex X Cop", and tvN's "Captivating The King". During the Lunar New Year period, "Flex X Cop" opted for cancellation. "Knight Flower" aired as usual, while "Captivating The King" aired for four consecutive episodes. As a result, its ratings increased.

"Knight Flower" recorded a rating of 11% on February 9th but experienced a slight decrease compared to the previous week. The February 10th episode achieved a competitive rating of 12.9%. "Captivating The King" made a bold move by airing consecutively from Friday to Sunday, totaling four episodes during the holiday. Its ratings were 4.2% on February 9th, slightly down from the previous week. However, it increased to 4.7% on the 10th, 6.4% on the 11th, and 6.7%, setting a new peak rating.

The only drama to experience a decrease in ratings was "Doctor Slump." Due to the nature of the Lunar New Year holiday, television viewership tends to be dominated by parents or older adults, making viewer attrition inevitable. Additionally, the consecutive airing of "Captivating The King" disrupted the flow of both "Knight Flower" and "Doctor Slump".

With 16 episodes in total, "Doctor Slump" has yet to reach its turning point. It is gaining attention through online communities and word-of-mouth. If it continues to provide entertainment value, its viewership is likely to recover. Now that the holiday is over, the focus is on whether "Doctor Slump" can regain its audience.

-Since the OTT service is doing well, do we really need to focus on ratings? Look at Netflix, this drama is always in the top ranks there~

-But these days, dramas in general seem really boring, and as for variety shows... there's nothing much to say.

-But seriously, the story just lacks excitement.

-Park Shin-hye plays the role of a high school student turned doctor; she gives off such a similar vibe to her past dramas that I don't have any expectations and don't watch.

-It's slow-paced, so it can be a bit boring at times, but it's not unwatchable.

-It was so entertaining that I binge-watched episodes 1 to 6 on Netflix. Their chemistry is great.

-Wow, am I the only one finding it entertaining these days?

-The story is predictable and slow-paced, so I'm not really looking forward to the next episode... I'm also not sure about their chemistry.

-I find it fun, so I'm really just waiting for this... 

-It's fun, it's the only drama I watch these days...

-The first two episodes were a bit exciting with some tension, but after that, it just feels like they keep eating, playing, drinking, and going to karaoke, so it wasn't great.

-It's entertaining, but it's not super exciting... Maybe everyone will just watch it when they have time? But still, I didn't expect the viewership to drop this much.

-I don't find it that entertaining eitherㅠㅠ I wait for the live broadcast but end up switching to OTT while watching. It seems like opinions are quite divided...

-I don't watch it and I'm not particularly curious about this combination...

-The dialogue is too cheesy...

The standing section at Hanteo Music Awards descended into chaos

 

Since there are no designated areas, people are gathering towards the singer's seats.

Many singers are also worried, and some even expressed their concerns directly on stage. Yoon Do-hyun seemed quite angry while speaking...

theqoo 

-What were they thinking not dividing the sections?

-Not dividing the standing section is a big mistake. It's frustrating how even though they keep telling people to move back, some fans aren't moving.

-The organizers are idiots...

-It's such a mess, even the singers seem really worried.

-They should have divided the sections. This is the first time I've seen something like this.

-The singers sitting there look so concerned. It's scaryㅠ Everyone, please watch the concert safely...ㅠㅠ

-Have they forgotten about the Itaewon tragedy..?

-Who came up with this layout? It's like a madman's idea.

-There are even over 1,000 people in Section A... It's surprising that there haven't been any accidents.

-Even if they divided the sections, people would still cluster together. Who's the lunatic who didn't divide the sections despite it being all standing?

-It's too dangerous, ㅜㅜ

-Who's the genius who divided the sections like that? If you divide it like that, it's a disaster waiting to happen...

-They should have divided the sections; if they just leave the standing area wide open like that, it's predictable that people will cluster together.
