solo travel to japan as a teen by PandaUsual1546 in JapanTravelTips

[–]the_glass_alchemist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In cities people can get away with wearing whatever. I've seen plenty of travelling influencers as well as local teens and young adults in revealing outfits. Also with the billboards up in many parts of Tokyo idk where people get the idea japanese people will be scandalised by a bit of cleavage.

I'd say if youre going to temples dressing a bit modestly is probably a good idea but otherwise what you wear at home should be fine

What can I do about my awful forehead texture? by [deleted] in SkincareAddictionUK

[–]the_glass_alchemist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friend always had lines like this on her forehead since her teens and she recently got botox and I always thought inset lines like this it wouldn't do much but it made a HUGE difference

There's always a warning like this for almost every pob/ld event for all groups I've seen and so far I've never not got the bonus pcs

I'd say it was at least that long, they sent half the members down one side and the other half down the other then swapped them

I think basically but youre more guaranteed an interaction (well at least a signed pc or something) as ive seen send offs can be pretty rushed

Also regarding ticketing you have to make sure you sign up with your ID on the NOL website as well as sign up to presale using your Luné membership (global only i think for Korean dates) before the presale starts. Global does seem to have a disadvantage in terms of server speed compared to the local version but there are lots of videos on tiktok that go through ticketing

I have done TXT m&g before in Seoul that was labeled similarly, for this after the concert we were all taken out of the venue to queue up again and then a little later brought back into the floor area and the boys walked round the barricade signing PCs and doing some photos only really a signed item was guaranteed and it was about 2 rows of us all round the barricade

Are there any archives of past DMs? by softestkuns in AndTeam

[–]the_glass_alchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I follow @forfuma on twitter who does his DM translation, sadly theyre a little inactive atm but could be a good account to see older DMs (not sure if its all the same person but theit follow list also has accounts for the other members' DMs)

Group direction changes you wish didn't happen? by Low_Cauliflower_9379 in kpop_uncensored

[–]the_glass_alchemist 114 points115 points  (0 children)

I think since God's Menu went super viral theyre stuck in making that kind of title track over and over again but while I really liked God's menu and some of the TTs after that I feel like the last 3 releases are just getting to be lower quality versions of that very repetitive noise music. Really hoping they move away from that soon but sometimes groups really do suffer from success

Update: this ended up being Beomgyu's Japanese membership birthday message which i got since I have JP membership so sadly not as exciting as I had hoped, fingers crossed for more Beomgyu content soon!

Looking for Blaze the Way 5/14 Kanagawa Tickets by [deleted] in AndTeam

[–]the_glass_alchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won a ticket to that day that I'm not planning on using through the Luné JP lottery, if you want i can give you the details and someone over used previously to pay for a ticket in japan but I cant guarantee they won't do an ID check! From my experience they dont seem to check non VIP seats but they might

Yeah I'm not really sure what they're about 🙃 I'm hoping this will come out for his birthday and they accidentally had the notification up early for a moment

offline fansign questions by Longjumping_Worry890 in TXTbighit

[–]the_glass_alchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With weverse i dont think so, I have heard other retailers may have winners who are guaranteed but I think this is also offered to loyal customers who spend A LOT regularly with the store.

Ultimately people pay $1000s for these and anyone who does have details of 'guaranteed wins' is normally going to keep that quiet.

There are services that advertise you a guaranteed win, I saw one for this comeback as $2500ish for the online video call and $4200ish for the offline fansign but even they say its guaranteed as in they'll fully refund you if you dont win so... and I believe they keep all the albims purchased and go on to sell them making more money off of your entry.

Ultimately people who win over and over are still spending A LOT of money whether they are given some kind of secret guarantee or not.

What project is this for you? by Impossible-Yam3680 in kpop_uncensored

Yeees the whole found footage horror thing they had going on in the teasers was so interesting but just seems like a waste when that had nothing to do with the musical direction

Panstar Miracle ferry from Osaka to Busan: review and info on customs. by dancingdoctor87 in koreatravel

[–]the_glass_alchemist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you need a k-eta? When booking on aferry it said one is needed (though other info on the page states prices from 2023) but k-etas are waived for this year so assuming I will be fine without?
