HAHA forgot to mention, 5 worst boy band list was freakin hilarious.
lol!!! that post on worst k-pop names is hilarious!!!
)
That 5 worst name list is crazy, LOL!
i was surprised ’super junior’ was not critized… o__o
I never knew SG Wannabe = Simon and Garfunkel Wannabe ..
I thought it was JUST S G.
H.O.T. is seriously really bad, although i’m a fan i rather it be HOT than hi-5 of teenages..
I love Javabeans! I haven’t checked up on there in awhile, though, so thanks for the link.
As for the 5 worst names of Kpop article, I agree that some of the names are stupid, but I think the humor was in pretty bad taste. :/
^ Agree.. it’s just bad. They try too hard. Articles like that make me appreciate popseoul more.
Hong Gil Dong. Lmfao, old folk legend.
I found that KBS’ “fusion” historical comedy, “Qwe-Doh Hong Gil Dong”, to be utterly rEtArDeD.
Javabeans/dramabeans is one of the better opinionated blogs. More insightful and well written reviews.
about that five worst names in kpop….it’s absolutely tasteless. crude humor is not appreciated. i agree that dramabeans actually is insightful and well written~ perhaps Allkpop should take a lesson from her.
^agree with peachy and franny about the humor in the band names. it was just kinda..ugh.
anyway, i’m also surprised super junior wasn’t listed among the 5 worst names.
Really? I thought that worst names was hiliarious! To each his /her own! That dramabeans is whatever, I don’t care much for dramas. The Shenyuepop interview was pretty cool but the questions asked were pretty dumb.
dramabeans also talk about important stuff in kpop. for ex: the future of kpop. that article was very informative & insightful. for blogs, i would put dramabeans on top of my list. xD
i go to popseoul for the funny remarks. they’re funny.
Allkpop tries too hard to be funny.
i know huh? super junior is a short lived name like high five of teenagers. what happens when ur not juniors no more? ;p
I was reading through the dramabeans article & it was pretty boring. The Allkpop was funny but the humor is a bit childish. Shenyuepop interview I don’t really care about Brian so whatever. Kpopped cooking, i dont cook so whatever.
It’s interesting how Allkpop is even rude to elders on their page. Apparently, manners no longer apply and internet-bullying takes over. Quite sad..
Shenyuepop needs better grammar check on their page. Funny how these are run by college/grad students? Oh yeah, don’t forget z-degrees’s blog and its exaggerations.
Dramabeans is a whole another level than these D-list blogs.
hahahahhahah..
1 word 2 describe the worst article -
~hilarious~
Popseoul pwns all of them
the 5 worst kpop names is HILARIOUS!!! especially rain’s and SG WANNABE.. XDDDD
i love Shenyue, Love your blog. Kpopped was fun to read ^^
Allkpop however is prolly the most tyrannical blog i ever read. They bash ppl who every little comment. you let freedom of speech reign here while they can dish out insults but can’t take any. The other blog take time in their posts, while Allkpop seemly writes random crap without thinking. I mean they are an insult to bloggers like you, shenyue, dramabean etc who take time in their posts and respect what other have to say. Reading the comments are just disgusting, they attack you for not agreeing with them, and it’s the staff that’s doing it! They have no respect for Korean entertainment and are tasteless in their comments. seriously i thought this blog had a lot of drama…
Agree, Allkpop talks nothing but rubbish. It seems like there are many Popseoul wannabes these days and Allkpop is one of them. Sadly, Allkpop is the same as other typical failures being a Popseoul wannabe. Unlike Popseoul, Allkpop critisizes everysingle thing without a solid reason and tries hard to create unhillarious humours, it always sounds more like Allkpop is making fun of itself more than trying to entertain us. I used itself cause I don’t consider the posts in Allkpop to be written by a human. (:
^ LOL Agreed, i think a down syndrome monkey can write better articles than some of their writers. They think they be popular by being “controversial” rather than being well written.
Shenyue’s a retard along with her minions too. Some of their criticisms don’t make sense. And LOL at the fact she adds her own credits for reposting stuff from soompi. How stupid.
DBSK should’ve been replaced by that new band, I the Tri top’s. That doesn’t make any kind of sense. And apparently it means reaching the top of the tree, or something like that (correct me if I’m wrong, since that is extremely likely). But. Uhh…what?
Chea, are you a FOB? Your comment makes you look like one. DT, they think they be popular? You think you be black?
YO HOMIE Y YOU INSULTING MEH. lol jk no that was a typo Grammar Nazi. And what if i’m black? Arte you saying all black ppl talk like that?
Also don;t hate me if i think Allkpoped isn’t well written. I mean they are all about “freedom of speech”, so you should be the last person to be insulting me for voicing my opinions.
hey!!!
dat was kinda crude n awful…
i don lik d balloon conversations…
it’s 2…uek~~~
u’re makin me puke…
u hv no right 2 comment on deir names…
is der any problems wif it???
2 begin wif..
ur comments r a joke itself…
PLS MIND UR LANGUAGE!!!!!!
IT AINT FUNNY OR COOL WRITING SOMETHING I WOULD CALL RUBBISH!!!
^ It’s pretty funny how people complain about ALLKPOP on Popseoul.
sung yuri rocks, very funny, cute and beautiful in HGD.
Gee. I only saw the 5 worst names. Kinda entertaining but also kinda offensive. Oh well.
Hi Popseoul,
Thanks for the mention. =)
Sung Yuri….EWWW.
i <3 dramabeans.
eh, the tacky effects in HGD really annoyed me much.
no comment abt sung yuri. never rly had much to say abt her even before HGD. she’s just so bleahh to me. we’ll see if she’ll make an impression as i continue to watch more of HGD (that is, if the effects don’t kill it for me..)
anyway, so is shenyue a she or a he? lol.
i’ve always liked reading his/her blog though.
oops. my bad. i misread the bit abt shenyue. so she’s a she. i got confused with the brian person. lol.
what a way to sum up! yea go to AllKPop to comment on the article XP
what? F.T Island is no 3 on 5 worst K-Pop name and Rain the no 1? I love them sooo much!!!
HOT rocks, man.
