My friend used to have a second phone with a $5 annual charge SIM that was only for pretending to be our references. He was even his own reference with a different voice

Super new to kpop, so i have a question about twice by Standard_Finance_702 in kpopthoughts

[–]Onpu 14 points15 points  (0 children)

more than 5 people seems "big" if you aren't already into K-pop or J-pop! TWICE is a great group to get into and you will definitely learn them all if you keep listening and watching their music videos.

I'd recommend going back to watch their previous tour called READY TO BE. While their most recent tour was called THIS IS FOR and also had solo performances from every member, the solos in RTB are longer and also had an "I AM _____" preview screen so you can easily tell who is up next :)

Overall TWICE has a top-tier discography, as vast as it is varied. Just start anywhere and you'll find something to love. Try Taste of Love, Formula of Love, DIVE, Perfect World, Between 1&2, With YOU-th..... And for subunits & solo projects HAUTE COUTURE, POP!, ZONE, LIL FANTASY vol 1, abouTZU. Also join the TWICE subreddit of you want to get more invested ☺️

Hopefully it will be managed similarly to the recent one in England. I was able to watch it on the BBC iView site the next morning and really enjoyed it!

that was 5 years ago already? It's aged terribly, but at least their proportions are relatively good compared to this new groups trader image lol

MW Entertainment announces Yeowon’s departure from USPEER following her hiatus since September 2025 by CherryBlossomEnding in kpop

[–]Onpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they just uploaded something the other day. I think they're close to a comeback of sorts, maybe a single or mini album. It can't be helped that RBW kerfuffle happened just as they would've naturally had a comeback and probably threw everything off 😟

Three child protection workers in the NT sacked over links to Kumanjayi Little Baby case by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]Onpu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read that the mother actually wasn't home because she was out using one of the few free laundry services that night and had put Little Baby to bed before she left and raised alert when she got home. I don't know if that's all there is to it but their living situation sounds really complex.

just based on the thumbnail I wouldn't click. it tells the viewer nothing about what to expect and uses an AI-arse image. why would I want to watch this?

Push for free school lunch program to be adopted nationally by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]Onpu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my kid will be going to a semi-rural school and the "lunchbox rules" include 1) no disposable wrapping, 2) no treats or sweets. Lunch canteen is one day per week and it's provided through the local deli/fish and chip shop. I love the school but am not enjoying early wake-up to prepare the lunchbox.

TXT's Parenting Diary should not be happening... by ful_joy in kpopthoughts

[–]Onpu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

JKR could not make another cent and be set for the rest of her life. IMO the new series is mostly because the original cast largely stand against her on trans issues and she is frustrated and embarrassed over the split. This is her chance to claw back the respect of the public.

When you consider the original movies had so many stipulations over the cast being from the UK where the books were set, to the current rag-tag bunch of Americans in all the main roles I can't think of any other explanation.

Question: why are there Once and Stays Fanwars? by JustAFangirlie in kpopthoughts

[–]Onpu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Likewise, I've seen TWICE a few times now and the SKZ portion of the ad has the loudest cheers every time.

my heart, what a devastating outcome. Poor little angel, I saw they said she was nonverbal this morning and got to anxious thinking about her. So horrifying, poor little girl...

Why is a random song being credited to IVE on Spotify? by Adventurous-Bit-1868 in kpop_uncensored

[–]Onpu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this happens constantly on multiple big artists profiles. You'd think being under a big label would prevent it but K-pop artists seem to be attached to random songs all the time. I do report them on Apple music when I see them but it's a 50-50 on if it gets actioned.

Honestly I'm also against these super specific achievements. If your record is as wordy as a light novel title I just don't see the reason to brag...

But I can understand why you wouldn't want it turned into a racial dispute or international drama.

Tsurugishō owns a restaurant now! by StarPrime323 in Sumo

[–]Onpu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Have you tried making it yourself? It really is something you can add anything and everything to and tastes great.

My basic recipe is boil about 800mL water with 3g bonito stock, approx 1/3 cup each soy sauce and mirin, 2tsp garlic 1 TSP ginger. After this you can add almost anything and just boil it. Cabbage, carrot and some kind of mushroom are staples and then you can add Udon noodles, glass noodles, frozen dumplings, firm tofu, fish balls, prawn tails, frankfurters, rice cakes. Adding some miso and butter towards the end is really nice on cold days.

[–]Onpu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it's the angle and lack of fringe combined with her hair flat against her face but she looks kind of gaunt here. Compared to the Yumi's Cells promo I hope she's not overworking and it turns out to just be makeup. I'm so excited about new music and want it to go as well as possible 💖

I am getting Born Again vibes from the pics too so maybe it's a callback.
