The two female idols who naturally need to have their roots grow out blonde

Rosé 

Liz

As I write this, I realized that they have the same initials: ㄹㅈ (NB: When written in Hangul)

theqoo

-I thought I would see Hyoyeon in this post.

-I don't think I've ever seen Rosé with grown-out rootsㅋㅋㅋ

-Add Hyoyeon to this listㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I feel like Hyoyeon's been blonde for like 16 years out of the 18 years she spent in this industryㅋㅋㅋ

-Oh my goodness... Liz totally looks like a princess!! So refreshingㅠㅠ So pretty.

-The two of them suits blonde really wellㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm so jealous of their scalps and hair...ㅠㅠ

-Liz looks better with dark hair, though... I guess I'm the only one who thinks like thatㅋㅋ

-Which group is Liz from?

-I agree. But Liz's purple hair was also super pretty.

-I think Liz looks good with any hair color, thoughㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I wonder what Rosé's hair routine looks like... She's really incredible.

-But I really want to see Liz with short black hair in a pure, Japanese-style look. She has distinctive facial features, so she must look stunning with that kind of hairstyle.

-Liz looks like she came out of a fantasy romance novel...

A clip from Abnormal Summit that's trending on overseas Twitter

 

 

 

theqoo 

-They were told 'No mansplaining' and immediately went 'We're the ones who are wronged'...

-As expected... I'm not even surprised.

-Mark's face = My face

-'Imagine being so misogynist you got white men stumped and speechless.'ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is the country we live inㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-This is exactly the perfect picture to show someone who doesn’t understand what mansplaining is.

-Exactly the perfect example of mansplainingㅋㅋㅋ

-It’s not about banning men from talking, it’s about banning mansplaining. You can still speak politely and kindly without sounding like you're 'teaching'. Why do men feel offended and even say 'I have the right to speak too' because of this?

-This was hands down the most memorable scene from the whole showㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Watching Abnormal Summit was hard mostly because of Sung Sikyung...

-Oh Gosh... I'm so embarrassed to see this.

-Abnormal Summit actually has great concepts and panelists... The only problem is the MCs.

-Sikyung-ah... Sikyung-ah...

-I wonder how pathetic Korean men are in foreign men's eyes... Korean men are truly the worst.

-Sung Sikyung has always been that kind of person, so I'm not even surprised.

-That is exactly why I hate Sung Sikyung.

[24.10.08] The head of the Military Research Institute: "Women joining the military could increase birth rates"

 Kim Hyungchul, the head of the Military Research Institute under the Ministry of National Defense, said, "If women join the militaries, camaraderie will form, leading to higher marriage and birth rates."

Kim made this statement during an appearance on Pen and Mic TV's YouTube broadcast on the 23rd of last month. He said, "The situation has now come to the point where women need to serve in the military. Men and women will live together like in college dormitories, though of course, in separate rooms. Naturally, couples will form there too. This will create camaraderies that last for a lifetime, and I believe there could actually be more marriages and children born as a result."

Kim added, "I’ve heard that even during temple stays, couples form. Encouraging women to serve in the military could provide opportunities for men and women to meet, which is good in that respect, and in emergencies, they could also contribute to combat capabilities, which is another benefit."

In response to these remarks, Democratic Party lawmaker Park Sunwon criticized, saying, "Kim is using the military service as a tool for childbirth. His remarks are highly inappropriate," and urged the Minister of Defense, who appointed Kim, to apologize.

Kim later told SBS, "It was a lighthearted comment meant to highlight the need for opportunities for men and women to meet. If it was inappropriate, I apologize."

https://www.kmib.co.kr/article/view.asp?arcid=0020598860

I came across this article from about a month ago. The remarks were so shocking that I had to share.

theqoo

-That would only increase sexual crimes. They really see women as nothing more than tools for childbirth.

-He doesn't see women as humans; he sees women as sexual tools. F*ck.

-I don't know... Wouldn't this just lead to higher rates of crime and female suicide?

-I wonder what does he think women are?

-Does it even make sense to say camaraderie leads to marriage? By that logic, do all men in the military fall in love and marry each other?

-Bullsh*t.

-Ahjussi, why don't you go and give birth then? 

-Is this person insane? How does anyone even begin to think that birth rates will rise because of military service?

-What does he think women are? Baby-making machines?

-Looks like he's including the number of pregnancies caused by rape in that calculation?

-I’m all for women serving in the military, but only if the units are completely separate, and there’s no interaction between men and women.

-Weren’t you guys saying women should just have babies instead of joining the military? But now you want us to do both?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-What is the purpose of the military anyway? To date and give birth?

-So you're talking about handing guns to women?!

-Brainless.

-So by his logic, are most soldiers gay now? Since he thinks camaraderie naturally leads to falling in love?

-Just figure out a way for men to give birth instead, please.

-And this is exactly why the birthrate is at rock bottom.

-Wow, Extraordinary Attorney Woo is only 10 votes behind Queen of Tears. Looks like it was a big hit in Japan. I already knew Crash Landing on You and Queen of Tears were successful there.

-Whoa... Wasn't Misaeng released 10 years ago?

-Itaewon Class ranks lower than I expected.

-As expected, Queen of Tears.

-For a second, I thought Chicken Nugget was ranked #1 and got really confused.

-It’s fascinating how dramas from different eras made it onto the listㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Extraordinary Attorney Woo ranks higher than I expected.

-Hospital Playlist is an unexpected one.

-Boys Over Flowers is the oldest drama on the list. That's impressive.

-I figured it would be Queen of Tears.

-Did it rank first because it’s a recent drama?

-Goblin isn’t on the list?

-Queen of Tears was such a hit in Japan. I saw Kim Soohyun’s ads everywhere there.

-Queen of Tears seems to be a huge hit in Japan.

-I need to check out the dramas I haven’t seen yetㅎㅎ

-Wow, Queen of Tears is #1. It’s my favorite drama of 2024.

-In Japan, sweet and warm dramas are really popular, that's why Baek Hyunwoo is widely loved there.

-It's surprising how Lovely Runner isn't on the list.

-As expected, Queen of Tears. There really hasn’t been a drama that compares to it this year.
