-Wow, he's so f*cking handsome ㄷㄷ

-Jaehyun-ah, eat lots of food and stay warm and wellㅠㅠㅠ

-Jaehyun-ahㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜㅜ Why does it look like you lost more weight?

-Is it tough there? His face looks so thin

-So f*cking handsome. His face card is insane.

-There's Kim Wooseok next to him, but his face got blurred....ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-This looks like a move still cutsㅋㅋㅋ So f*cking handsome.

-Please discharge Jaehyun-ie from the militaryㅠㅠ

-Hul... When did he enlist?

-Did Jaehyun-ie lose weight? I hope he's doing well and staying healthy. Come back soon. I already miss you🥲

-Eat lots of rice and stay healthy~

Hyeri gets mistaken for Karina on the street






Hyeri copying Karina's stylingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Karina's reaction



Hyeri: Rina-ya, how do I look...?

Karina: Unnie... You look so pretty! Seriously... Genuinely... This is legendary. You look so pretty. Wow.

(For your information, Hyeri borrowed that headband from Karina)

But honestly, the styling looks so good on her. She looks really pretty...


She went out on the street with this styling



'Huh? Isn't that Karina?'



PD: Oh? Someone said, 'That's Karina!' They were like, 'That's Karina?'


She was genuinely mistaken for Karina and she freaking loved itㅋㅋㅋㅋ

(But you're Hyeri to begin with...)

Give us more Hyeri x Karina moments please...

theqoo

-Hyeri is so cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ❤️

-So cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋ The way she gets so freaking happy when someone mistook her for Karinaㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Why does she get so freaking happy when someone mistook her for Karina when she's Hyeri herselfㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I can see a little bit of ITZY in her.

-She's so f*cking pretty, not gonna lie.

-But you're Hyeriㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Hyeri is so cute.

-Why is she so happy about being mistaken for Karinaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ You're Hyeriㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-She's so freaking pretty...

-She doesn't look like Karina, but she still looks gorgeous❤️❤️

-She's so real for being so happy about being mistaken for Karinaㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Hey... You're Girls Day's Hyeriㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I love to see beautiful girls hang out togetherㅎ

-Rather than Karina, she looks more like that... you know... That cat-like girl from ITZY.

-Look at how happy she isㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ So cute

GDragon chooses his best hairstyle through the 'Legendary Hairstyles World Cup'

 

GDragon did the 'Legendary Hairstyles World Cup' on his first time starring on a radio show (Starry Night) in 12 years

Quarterfinals, group 1

2007 Apple hair vs 2009 Perm hair

Winner: Apple hair

GD: I have to... pick one, right...? I feel like I need to apologize for both... If you ignore the face, Apple hair...

Quarterfinals, group 2

2013 Half-half two-tone vs 2012 Seaweed hair

Winner: Seaweed hair

GD: What kind of person is that guy...?

He chose the seaweed hair because the two-tone hair had an awkward length, but he faced difficulties having meals when he had the seaweed hair.

Quarterfinals, group 3

2013 Egg sushi hair vs 2017 Wolf cut (Byungji Cut)

Winner: Wolf cut

GD: I didn't realize it looked like an egg sushi until someone edited a picture and added chopsticks to it. I was growing out my hair without much thought when I had that wolf cut, so it was comfortable. When you search for 'Byungji cut', only my pictures show up in the results. So, I feel sorry to Kim Byungji. 

Quarterfinals, group 4

2012 Regge hair vs 2012 Cotton candy hair

Winner: Cotton candy hair

It actually wasn't GD's choice. He was heavily pushed by the DJ, Kim Yina, to choose the cotton candy hair.

The fancy semifinal lineupㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

GD: Seaweed hair vs Cotton candy hair feels like a battle between side dish vs snack.

After many twists and turns, the final match came down to Byungji cut vs Cotton candy hair

And the winner is...

He was told to choose randomly and that's how the Byungji cut wins!!!! Congrats.

But honestly, GD's Byungji cut was indeed legendary...

You can watch the full version of the radio show here

-'What kind of person is that guy...?' What the f*ckㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Wow... I'm jealous of how thick his hair is despite having done all those hairstyles.

-I approve. The Byungji cut syndrome that appeared at the time was totally awful, but it looked f*cking gorgeous on GD.

-No orange hair?!

-I can't believe the cotton candy hair didn't win...

-It's honestly shocking to know that Wolf cut was actually not styled and was just a result of him growing out his hair with no thoughtsㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I personally also think that brown, Byungji cut was the prettiest.

-Only the Byungji cut actually looks pretty out of all those hairstyles. I can't believe he was actually just growing out his hair with no thoughts at that time.

-ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The Byungji cut indeed looks very pretty. So does the cotton candy hair.

-Side dish vs snackㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Is it just me, or don’t male idols generally look good in Byungji cuts? Why do people hate it so much...?

-I vote for the Byungji cut too.

-GD created that Byungji cut syndrome. A poison he unleashed on the music scene.

-I can't believe they didn't include his orange hair. But I agree, he really suits that Byungji cut.

HYBE’s Bang Sihyuk: “The Reason for K-Pop’s Global Success is ‘Collaboration’” ··· Mentions BTS, TXT, LE SSERAFIM

 

Sports Kyunghyang | Journalist Lee Sunmyung

https://sports.khan.co.kr/article/202411191549003?pt=nv

Bang Sihyuk, chairman of HYBE, was selected as someone who brought Asian culture to the world and hinted at future collaborations with various cultures.

Chairman Bang attended the Asia Game Changer Awards ceremony held on the 25th of last month (Korea time) in New York, USA, and delivered his acceptance speech.

The award is presented to those who have shone a global light on Asian content in fields such as journalism, music, film, and comedy. Although the ceremony was held on the 25th of last month, Chairman Bang’s acceptance speech was released on the 19th via a YouTube channel.

Delivering his speech in Korean, Chairman Bang said, “I've been collaborating with musicians from various cultural backgrounds since I was young. Through these experiences, I’ve learned to respect and understand the diversity of individuals and cultures. As a producer who experiments with various genres, and as the chairman of HYBE, which has bases in Korea, the U.S., Japan, and Latin America, I believe we can expect more creative and enriching musical outcomes when we combine differences"

He continued, “The reason Kpop music is loved worldwide is not only because of its universally relatable narratives but also because it combines the appealing elements from multiple genres. For example, BTS member Jungkook’s song ‘Seven’, which played as I walked in, was inspired by the UK garage genre and created in collaboration with the popular American artist Latto.”

He added, “LE SSERAFIM, a girl group under HYBE, released the song ‘Unforgiven’, which sampled Ennio Morricone’s ‘The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly’, and featured the legendary American guitarist Nile Rodgers. Additionally, our boy group Tomorrow X Together also collaborated with Brazilian artist Anitta last year on the song ‘Back for More’, which significantly increased the number of first-time listeners to our music.”

Chairman Bang concluded, “To introduce Kpop’s strengths to the U.S. and further to the global stage, we have been collaborating with Geffen Records, one of the top U.S. labels under Universal Music. As a result, the global girl group KATSEYE debuted this summer and has been achieving remarkable chart results in the global market.”

-Where did your conscience go?

-Collaboration? You're being ridiculous. Ugh, so annoying.

-How about showing up to a hearing?

-Talking about 'rich musical achievements' when all he did was plagiarize and manipulate music chartsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-When will we get to see those 'creative and rich musical achievements' you're talking about?

-Is his head filled with flowers, or is he just a psycho? What the heck is he doing?

-Is he still in the US? Is he not coming back to Korea? How long does he plan to dodge this matter?

-Stop talking bullshit and come back to Korea.

-I'm a fan of one of the groups he mentioned there. It's obvious that Bang Sihyuk doesn't care about his artists or their fans. If he knew about his current image, he wouldn't be mentioning the groups right now. How can someone be like that? It's not the artists, it's Bang's attitude that makes me want to quit being a fan. If you still have any conscience left, don't mention the groups anymore. I hate him so much. I really do. I hate him so much, I'm literally crying right nowㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Your idols are suffering, receiving hate and backlash right now. What are you doing?

Rosé asked about NewJeans and HYBE in i-D magazine interview.

 

theqoo

-Why would they ask Rosé that? Seriouslyㅋㅋ

-I love NewJeans too.

-Why ask that to Rosé...

-That's right. Everyone, let's only talk about positive things.

-That's so out of nowhere.

-That's a very weird questionㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ But still, Rosé answered it nicely. She's so sweet.

-She answered that question very cleverlyㅋㅋ

-Foreign media probably ask about it because it's a big topic in Kpop.

-The interviewer probably asked because about it because it's related to Kpop, she handled the question really well.

-'She raises her eyebrows and shakes her head in a tiny motion.' <- Seems like Rosé found the question odd, tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-She responded to that dumb question with a wise answer. She's so lovely.

-Why ask Rosé...? She has nothing to do with the issue at all... She handled it very well, though.

-But it's also very strange to see everyone's shutting their mouths and pretending like this issue doesn't exist.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the home ground of Son Heungmin's team, where Stray Kids will perform

 

Since it was opened back in 2019, it's still completely new. It also has the best facilities among the other soccer team stadiums. 

It can accommodate over 60,000 people. 

The stadium's grass field can be stored, so holding concerts won't damage it at all.

This is what it looks like during a concert.

theqoo

-This is insane.

-What's with the grass? That's really fascinating.

-Sigh... I'm a STAY and I really want to go there...

-I thought the stadium looked nice and it actually does look nice.

-What? Stray Kids is performing there?

-I want to go too... I bet it'll be so much fun.

-This place is amazing as a concert venue. Even Beyoncé killed it here.

-Whoa... If I were a singer, I'd feel emotional when I perform hereㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-If I were to perform here, I’d probably cry when the concert gets confirmed and live super carefully until the big dayㅜㅜㅜㅜ

-Crazy... This is a new stadium, so it's really good.

-I want to be a rich fan who follows Stray Kids’ European tour.

-I wanted to go, but after seeing European fans worry about not getting seats, I decided not to.

-This is unbelievable. The retractable grass is so freaking cool.

-The retractable grass is really fascinating. Stray Kids is really amazing.

-Hul... They're having a solo concert in that stadium? That's insane.
