Agreed with everything Pow! have stated about their sales :yes
I missed the old time kpop when lee junghyun's old album sold like hundreds thousands copies but then passion only sold like 40k D:

^^that dear mom performance ;____;

^almost all countries are like that though.. it really sucks :/

at least in japan some artists still selling like crazaay :laugh
*cough*AKB48*cough*

^ You don't have to mention it :laugh

^^^lol yeah physical album sales deterioration happens all over the world, with the improvement of technologies like internet and all, people prefer to buy only songs they wanted from itunes than to buy the whole album just to listen to some of the songs. But at least in Japan, even though singers don't sell millions of physical albums anymore (with an exception of some artists, of course), singers still manage to live with their sales, unlike in Korea.
Music industry in Korea is having a hard times, with only idols and trot singers that manage to sell, many other singers (that are not categorized in both terms) struggle to survive, with very little amount of income, because tv stations prioritize idols and trot singers to perform, and moreover with the increasing case of piracy.


I forgot to put one of my favorite Soshi songs xD

^thats true, which is just sad since those singers work soooooo hard and get like.. nothing in return =/

omg yessssssssss :roflmao i wouldnt be surprised if they are world's #1 seller right now :laugh

I love Etude too! this performance is my favorite of it:
love their outfits & 0:29 when seohyun blinks right with the music is so cute. :laugh

^OMG I HAVE NEVER SEEN THAT SHORT-HAIRED YURI PIC BEFORE!!!!!!!! looks surprisingly good :faint :faint

and yes etude is all kinds of adorable :heart especially the choreo :laugh

^^Aww I love that performance too xDD *cough*basically I love all of their Etude performance lol*cough*
Was kinda torn when choosing which performance to post lol but I end up with the waterpark one :D
I can't wait for ITNW Tour dvd or SMTown dvd or any of their concert dvd to be released, since they only sung Etude full version in concerts. Though it's only the remix version of it, at least we could see other members' part :<

^Yep Yuri wore wig for one of their Genie promotional photoshoot:

Wow that's a cool place to perform. Very Kawaii! ^_^
I like this performance.

HOMG JESS:luv2 :luv2 looks abit like her previous shoot~~

it made me happy too! xD
^omg gorjess!!!

I love the Vogue stuff *_* They always look so beautiful!

I probably couldn't pick a favourite performance - maybe a good excuse to rewatch a bunch of them xD

I haven't bought anything from GG since the Phuket photbook. I really really want the AAGG and the Japanese album in person *_*

I'm so happy that their sales are doing so incredibly well! This album is awesome, so it's definetely well deserved!

Hyoyeon is my bias and I'm soooo ecstatic that she is receiving so much love in Europe! She looks so happy and that makes me happy too! Although she may be considered one of the least popular members in Asian countries, apparently it's the opposite overseas. Hyo fighting!

Gorgeous as usual!
