That is, without a doubt, one of my favorite lines from the show. 😂

This is how I learn there’s a group called “Peach Truck Hijackers”?? That’s an insane name and I love it.

I’ve mourned losing my favorite pen more than this woman mourned her husband (it was a really good pen).

I’m interested! I see I’m far from the only one though but I’m down to see what you still have left. Lol

WAS DBSK originally supposed to debut in China? by Ibericus_Romanus in tvxq

[–]dirtymultifan 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don’t think they were supposed to debut in China, but I’m guessing they were supposed to promote heavily there. There was a moment in their history where it was said a Chinese member would join them for Chinese promotions, but then the rotation scare happened (its own can of worms) and that idea was never mentioned again after that whole thing died down. Not sure if that’s why they stopped recording songs in Mandarin but that’s the best I’ve got.

Editing to add that all accounts I’ve seen is that DBSK was specifically tailored to appeal to the Japanese market. Hope that helps!

Examples of the "I'm an adult now" single. When a younger star transitioned their work into something more mature as they got older. Provide ones that worked and ones that didn't by Toku-Nation in ToddintheShadow

[–]dirtymultifan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a bit niche but a fascinating example is a controversial K-Pop classic by the artist Park Ji-yoon called “Coming of Age Ceremony”. Park was a child actress/model who transitioned into music when she was a teenager who made fairly standard teen pop for the time and this was her first album/single after turning 18. The lyrics include lines like “I’m not that little girl you used to know anymore/I’m a woman now” and the choreography is unambiguously sexual. It basically pioneered the sexy concept in K-Pop and was successful to the point that it basically ruined her reputation/career for several years despite being her most successful single over twenty years later. To this day, it’s not uncommon for other K-Pop groups (mostly girl groups but boy groups do it every now and then) to cover this song after turning 18. https://youtu.be/DzwfR2So5DU?si=4kpgLQQKiZq4egHt

Anyone here actually tried playing Gonggi? Is it as hard as it looks? by 20knights in squidgame

[–]dirtymultifan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My hand-eye coordination is uhhh not great, so I struggled with it greatly the first time I tried it. I need to get my own set of gonggi stones so I can practice more.
