IT'S HAPPENING FOLKS WE ARE GOING TO SEE MY BOYS SEVENTEEN IN REAL FREAKING LIFE!
That's right! I've got tickets to see them in real life. They finally are having their North American tour and WE WILL BE THERE!!
My expectations are high. Chances of me crying are also high.
In honor of us going to their concert they put out a dance practice for what just might be my favorite Seventeen song (sorry Change Up and My I). But maybe it just joined the ranks as a favorite. Just like my bias for this band my favorite song is in fact not just one.
Enjoy and know that all I can think about is seeing this adorable dance/song with my own 2 eyes.
So... the truth is... this is not a new song. By not a new band. But, it's my song of the week. I accidentally rediscovered it and I have been listening to it non-stop all week. (Along with Super Clap and Ke$ha's new song!!!)
TVXQ! Has a strange history. But I support this duo and the fact that they have continued to dominate and make music despite losing three members. (They are like extra famous and legendary in Japan.)
Also, I fell in love with them while I was watching Analog Trip. I relate real hard to Changmin...
Anyway. This song is great. It's super catchy. I love me a group of men out here making music. Especially men in suits.
(This music video was definitely shot in the same place Why Not the Dancer recorded their music video. Just shot from a different angle.)
Park Jinwoo and Park Woojin are the long lost brothers. I don't even remember what I was watching at this point when I realized this. It may have been that Monsta X/SVT/Wanna One collaboration stage. It may have been an AB6IX music video. Honesetly, it doesn't even matter what I was watching only that my realization felt like this:
I thought maybe I was crazy until I went on a long and embarrassing spiral, but here we are. One shame spiral and a large increase in likes on tumblr later and I have my evidence on why these two are secretly brothers.
Exhibit A)
Their faces Woojin JinJin This really needs no explanation. The facts are there in their adorable faces.
Exhibit B)
Stellar Dancers
WoojinJinJin
They're both in their respective dance lines and definitely deserve to be there. If you need further proof please tell me because I could watch these boys dance all day....You know what here's some videos anyway because no one is here to stop me.
Side Note: shout out to anyone dedicated to filming one member for an entire song. I can't even look at just one member for one song let alone be concentrated enough to film them
Exhibit C)
Smiles that make my heart melt
JinJinWoojin
I swear these boys have the cutest smiles on the planet. They just radiate pure warmth and happiness. If their smiles don't make you even the slightest bit happy you're a monster. Sorry I don't make the rules.
Exhibit D)
Rocking the blue/green hair
JinJin . Woojin
Anyone who knows me knows how I feel about colored hair. And hot damn if these boys don't impress with their hair. I believe I yelled when I saw JinJin's blue/green hair for the first time.
JinJin wants to be accepted as the visual and ASTRO just won't let him @1:40
I'm here for members that demand to be told their loved all time because I relate.
Exhibit F)
Rap Legends (like cute baby rap legends)
This doesn't demonstrate the cute baby rap legend that I just claimed JinJin to be but it's an important video.
I stumbled across this awhile ago and thought "wow this is good" and then never went further than that. I was a fool.
Exhibit G)
Not helpful with bugs:
Woojin is the one who runs upstairs.
JinJin here with advice but no action.
Exhibit H)
Secretly super fit
I say secretly because it's occasionally talked about but rarely shown. This was all I could find gif-wise. These boys keep covered up which I respect. But they're also adorable babies so I was surprised upon finding out they had abs.....I also felt weird trying to find gifs of their abs..
Exhibit I)
Both being that joke of "whoever screams the loudest is in charge"
Woojin and JinJin both appear quiet at first but given the chance and often out of necessity they are LOUD.
Exhibit J)
Pink hair and flowers photo shoot
Refer to Exhibit D for my feelings on colored hair.
Exhibit K)
Having no shame whatsoever
Those are (some of) my reasons that the Park WooJinWoo boys are twins. Brothers. Whatever. They're eerily (adorably?) alike and I want them to become friends.
If you made it this far you deserve an award. Tragically all I have to give is my love
Before I began typing this I asked Maknae Minho what is too much?
She said: nothing.
This is why she is my sister and why we get along so well. Best neighbor sister ever.
Here it is in all it's glory. It's better than anything I was expecting.
In case you are a lover of dance practices. Here is this:
(I may have several gifs of this already saved on my phone.)
I've also been watching SJ Returns on their V-Live Channel. I got to preview the song a little early.
Then there is this spectacular interview that once again proves why Super Junior are legends.
LEGENDS.
Their Idol Room episode is also really spectacular, but I haven't been able to find a full English Sub of it. The one I watched was Spanglish...
Lastly. They just released Analog Trip on YouTube Red. It's SO good. I've already watched several episodes twice. Also. Donghae does things to my heart in general.
Donghae in his red bandana and shorts. Dibs.
Here is the trailer.
Super Junior has given me everything. If only they would come to the US on their next tour. I would die to see them in real life. Actually I would get super drunk and have a blast dancing.
I know the title is crazy long but it's worth it I swear.
If you don't know AKMU they're the reigning royalty of ballads in the Kpop world. They're a brother sister duo who have been on hiatus since Chanhyuck did his military service early. But now he's back and thus AKMU is back with a stellar album!
Here's their title track from their new album which is spectacular. If you think "hmmm. they're alright" Watch them doing their preview for their album. Acoustic. On a boat. Casual af.
Anyway they're wonderful and adorable and I love them.
I just discovered this video and I don't know how I've never seen it before because its not new.
No one can rock leather pants and sheer shirts like Monsta X can. No one else even tried because they know they would look like fools in comparison.
I may have gasped unnecessarily loud upon discovering this. Monsta X and Seventeen interactions are my favorite because looking at them they shouldn't be friends, but here we are in a beautiful Monteen world. Shout out to Carats and Monbebe for supporting their friendship and being friendly fans to each other too!
Enjoy these sexy and beautiful men.
Love,
Maknae Minho
P.S. Look forward to a rant about that Woo Jin kid from Wanna One/AB6IX because I think I just discovered why I am overly in love with him with knowing almost nothing about him.
Maknae Minho has barely addressed this. I cannot wait any longer. Monsta X is out here trying to kill some people.
First they release this bop. I'm over here blushing to death listening to it in my car.
I've already discussed Someone's Someone in another post. But, every time this song comes on, for about 5 seconds I think it's Backstreet Boys. Then I get happier when I realize it's Monsta X.
THEN. They come out with this teaser for their new MV.
First of all, if you don't know who ONF is you should look them up they're amazing and they haven't had a bad comeback yet. Here's their most recent one. It's amazing. They don't do bad. It's just not their style.
I also realized at the end of this music video that they might be aliens. I directed my suspicions at Half_aKini and she's going to get back to me with a decision.
Second of all:
ATEEZ came out here and SLAYED that comeback.
Do I need a full performance video immediately? Yes.
Did my boys already give me half of one before the song even came out? Yes.
Then this happened today:
Like I'm a San stan here but Seonghwa owned this entire music video.
Like damn son.
Damn.
If you need me I'll by crying about all the comebacks that have happened in the past week or so. Including Jopping. And Someone's Someone. And I Think I. And Pink Walk. And basically anything that's come out since October started.
Technically this happened last night... but I couldn't listen to it in my car until this morning....
I'm probably dead somewhere. My wallet definitely is now that I feel the need to own all SuperM merch and buy tickets to the concert. I was so worried for this. I should've known my Taemin wouldn't let me down. Boys, you can drop that dance practice or performance version any time. I am here waiting patiently.
Then this happened.
Did MonstaX finally do it? Is this their song that will be a hit on American radio waves? It really might be. Now I need a music video.
Then. Gods of Kpop... SuperJunior decided they wanted to drop a music video today. NBD. My brain isn't already exploding.
This has been stuck in my head from the first moment. Everyone looks fabulous. Only why do Leetuk and Shindong not have solos? I'm not going to worry about it.
If you don't know ONEUS you should! They're wonderful. Their debut was earlier this year with Valkyrie and it was an amazing start for them! They also did a dance practice with Na Haeun (an adorable and amazingly talented little dancer) and it is adorable!
Enjoy and have a great week!
Love,
Maknae Minho
**I was going to add a really cute photo of them but this one made me laugh so have this of Seoho instead!**
