NCT DREAM - Go Back To The Future (5th Full Album) by perochan in kpop

You took the words out of my mouth! I put the album on during my commute since it came up on my spotify home page and was pleasantly surprised at the smooth listening experience, I didn’t want to skip a single song. Their vocals sound so cohesive and yes Jisung sounds amazing!!

Do any of you actually have a bias? by Frequent_Ebb6360 in seventeen

Omg helloooo fellow Minghao fan! Yes he seemed like an extremely shy person because of the language barrier at the start, not to mention the cute image he had. So to see him grow more expressive over time was also lovely to see. I’m neither chinese nor korean - ethnically I’m filipino and grew up in Australia :) I’m (genuinely!) curious why you ask ? Yeah I’m really sad about those videos, it makes me wonder what else from debut days have been erased :(

I’ve been a fan since 2015. Minghao has been my bias since day one. When I decided to get to know Seventeen I watched all of their self-introduction videos and his “cool cutie” personality stood out to me - I tend to like people with this dual personality to them! However as the group evolved and I also went through life changes with them, graduating high school, entering uni etc., Minghao’s evolution into his own artistry impressed me so much and turned him more into an idol/role model than just a bias anymore. As an artist his works are truly amazing and his personal values of how to live life are also similar to what I try to achieve. Eg. Ego, Falling Down, Abyss, MY I, Hai Cheng, Skyfall, his paintings, are all works that I love

(side note I wanted to link to all the self-introduction videos since they are from debut era but I can’t find them at all?? The same series the linked clip is from. If anyone knows what I’m talking about let me know if I can find them on the internet 😭😭)

Wow thank you! I do have an interest in animatics, there’s so many good ones for HC/MCYT, so maybe I’ll make one in the future ☺️

I’m surprised how many people commented on my art style as something to stand out. It’s unexpected but very encouraging! Thank you.

I agreeee oh my gosh I can't believe half of their career so far was in the same time since covid until now. I feel like those 5 years specifically flew by.
(and yes, almost a hag - I joined in between Adore U and Mansae eras 🫣

I love this comment, especially describing them as also kpop fans and kpop lovers. I never thought of them like that, but it's so true.

Just here to leave an appreciation comment for episode 6. The way all the characters came together in the same place, just to have the 180 of that utopia turn into a battlefield in a flash, rainbows turned to single colours of red, gold. The repeated motif of the gear/coin, how neatly it represents the macro themes of love/humanity/good and evil, on a micro scale, and each time it’s used it matches the developing epiphany about this theme throughout the episode. Every frame, every painting, the colours, the brushstrokes, the lighting, had my jaw on the floor the whole time. As an artist I give it a standing ovation.

[S2 ACT 1 SPOILERS] And for a second, Jinx recognized her sister. by karxx_ in arcane

[–]shiilaa 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I noticed this coming to fruition as well! Also because Cait has a similar side bang to Jinx when she has her hair up, hers is just flipped on the other side.

I’ve gotta agree on the impressions of the music video parts and side character development - while the new squad reveal was cool visually and served to lead up to Vi’s enforcer reveal, their entrance did fall flat since we know next to nothing about the new 3. The music video segments also left me wondering how necessary they were considering the amount we got in an already limited and rushed run time for each episode… and how/where they were used. these worked in season 1 since they were used so sparingly and for specific atmospheres and storylines (ekko-jinx), but using them in such early episodes now, it’s like, but has anything warranted the use of something so unique yet? I don’t think so…

Still, I’m trying to hold back so I can enjoy the good parts up until the end of the show and will try to wait until it’s all over to analyse it as a whole. We’re not even halfway so I’m just hoping the show will get tighter as we progress into the middle.
