thanks fyafterschool

am i the only one that is not falling head over heels for these previewS?

another preview

this is so good!!!!:luv2

Thats SOOOOOO Perfume!! and just when I thought Juyeon and U-ie finally can have a time to shine, they had to autotune them so this extent >.<
but not bad..wish it was so perfume-ish though

How exciting will all these previews. Now there is only two missing right? Tell me and Shanghai Romance (jp ver.)?

listening to those previews made me wanted the album a lot more now, OS Press I need you .___.

All the previews sounds good.

I'm looking forward the hear what Shanghai Romance will sound like in Japanese.

The album should leak now :D

Right now, i'm loving every preview :heart

HEAR TELL ME'S PREVIEW HERE
http://www.after--school.jp/discography/

OMG ITS PERFECT ITS A BALLAD!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice, just 1 ballad, and it sounds ok.
I'm wondering if Shangai Romance got a new arrengement

Shanghai Romance preview



Sounds awesome.

haha sounds the same to me. but it has always been a great song:)

and for those who missed the (amazing) Tell Me preview

I like it that they kept Shanghai Romance just like the original. It's really addicting and fun as it is!

i still don't understand why they remade shanghai romance ;_; they should have make aing:luv2
i hope we get a leak this weekend <3

^well maybe because it's the most recent anyway xD

Wow. This album is frive million times better than the crap that was Virgin. I'm so happy I preordered this. Why can't their ratio of good Korean songs to bad ones be as good as with their Japanese releases?

I personally love Virgin and think that this Japanese album, except for the Japanese remakes and maybe one or two original songs, is complete crap. I wish the album WAS more like Virgin. To say the least, I'm disappointed.

THIS!!!!!!
i liked virgin, but it wasn't their best release :( too mcuh balads and midtempo songs
i like my AS being fierce and with dance songs

THIS

And this too

:yes

.....ok you guys already said what I want to say, so... xD

ORANGE CARAMEL needs their own japanese debut !

Exactly. I loved them from their debut with AH! and that was the group and style I fell in love with. They've been changing it up over and over again in Korea until that mid-tempo ballady mess of an album, but now we have the true AS back for their Japanese debut and I'm happy to say this will definitely be the Korean album I never got from them.

this.

rip off leaked

as, thank you for making something like this ;___;

THE ALBUM IS STILL NOT LEAKED??? gosh...oh well..its tomorrow soon >.<

edit: Rip Off is so much better than I thought it would be!!!!!!!!!!!! <3
and oh...some new songs are already upped by the uploader

omg Rip Off is awesome :heart

got the album, I'm going to upload it asap :)

^yay!!! thanks :D


the album is so average T____T dissapointment x 100

I agree with you and am disappointed as well. The songs are nice but there is nothing exceptional or standout about them. Although I kind of expected this, I was still hopeful as I've found myself wanting to be a fan of them because I think they're talented in more than just singing (like their drum playing and tap dancing). The album sounds very average. I'm not very impressed with their Korean discography (I like a handful of songs) so I was hoping that I would like their Japanese music better. Unfortunately that didn't turn out to be the case.

I think both their Korean album and this new one are great LOL

I really like this album, i love almost every song :heart

Tell me is so gorgeous!! I wont compare their Korean and Japanese works because it's bviously kept seperately. thats the idea with all the korean remakes sounding different anyway. But yes, I thought with these music, they'd sound more edgy but their vocals are still on the softer side. I tihnk AS needs more unique and less girly vocals LOL...but i cant hope for much. I still love them!!! (suprisingly Miss Futuristic is entertaining)

I have to agree.... I keep going back to their first 3 songs which have been their best everything else is just so average, except in the night sky T_T that was a small return to thier amazingness

haha..for me, i didnt enjoy In The Night Sky because it sounded too similar to SISTAR's Shady Girl which I didnt like..and i wondered by Brave Bros is producing songs like that compared to the amazingness he did with AH, Diva and Because of You >.<

+1. I personally didn't find "In The Night Sky" amazing, but I did enjoy it a lot more than their other songs. They have yet to top or even come close to their very first songs. If their music had continued to go in the direction they started with, I would have definetely been a fan.

ugh, japanese album was fantastic :thud
all the new songs are GREAT (specially miss futuristic and tell me)!!! and i loved all the singles, so for me the album was perfect:laugh
i don't get all the bad reviews at all:shrug

IS IT OOK TO POST THIS HERE???

NU'EST AFTER SCHOOL'S JUNIOR HAS DEBUTED!

^i posted it in the general kmusic thread, because i wasn't sure where to post it:laugh
THEY'RE AMAZING! aaron omg haha

THEY ARE SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!! X) Great song Great Dance and awesome visuals !

not bad for a album that has not much promotion on the music itself..no performances >.<

PLAYGIRLZ #6, not bad at all, i hope a top 5 for AS.
I don't see them performing on music shows (like Coming Soon!, Happy Music, Music Fair, CDTV, etc). I wonder why

^because avex is using AS as models and not as singers. All the promos they do are in fashion shows and magazines :o
i wish the signed with other company :(

oh Avex, these girls are good live performers to me *though uee sounded off in lives, kinda* give them a chance to prove it to Japan!

#6 is not bad! I hope they could climb up to #5 tho! :D

I'm gonna listen to the album tonight.

And guys, JR is mine :laugh (of course T.O.P is still #1)

EDIT: Wait, JR is only 16? Oh never mind, I'll just have T.O.P then :mini :mini

2nd Day
#9

T___T

^ They'll be lucky to be in top 10 for the weekly

pledis confirmed there's going to be a korean version of gimme love
OMG YES YES MY FAV SONG ON THE ALBUM:heart

ÔMG HURRAY!!! thats an awesome track :)

.... why... why... Why can't they just release new songs... in korea T_T

JR is mine lol since we're the same age teehee :lech
but I wanna be loyal with TOP -sigh-

btw I actually liked Miss Futuristic :0

Oooh you can have JR, I'll just have T.O.P then :sdevil

So far to me, Playgirlz album is good but I don't think its as good as Virgin album. I'm so use to listening to the Korean version so the Japanese remake songs still sounds a little odd to me. The other songs that weren't remakes has some Ami Suzuki vibes to it. lol. I have to give it little more plays for me to get use to this album.

Does anyone know why UEE only sings 3 words in Rip off?

Peak: #8
Album: PLAYGIRLZ
Artist: AFTERSCHOOL
Sales: 16286

To be honest, i was expecting more, but i'm happy they got a top 10 album :)

The Pledis family bond seems cute haha, I hope the new group will be successful like their seniors~ thanks for sharing, Cori :D

NU'EST is being promoted so well im jealous for After School :(

AFTER SCHOOL NEW JAPANESE SONG
SLOW LOVE


another softy song >.<

I hope that's just the b-side ....

It sounds boring, but is just a preview.
I hope isn't an a-side of a single

^Agreed. It does sound a little boring.

Here's a throwback video.

Amoled Dance practice video



Jungah :love.

OMG you guys should totally download the PREMIUM LIVE...
IMAGINE ALL EIGHT OF THEM SINGING AH!

http://k2nblog.com/showcase-after-sc...playgirlz-dvd/

i was surprised to see Lizzy and E-young given lines :X
and another bonus is seeing Lady's Live :)

^oh, downloading it now!!!
i'm not liking the new preview:( it sounds so boring

AHHHHHH!!! I CANT WAIT!!! hope they do the same thing as Bangkok City and come back one month before After School's actual comeback!!! I pray that the rumoured June comeback is true!! Almost a year of missing AS already :(

and I think the next city is Tokyo!

omg new OC song~ :heart

favorite sub unit, orange caramel. <33

AH!

^thanks for that rip out!!! such an awesome live aint it?

it's really weird to see a live of AH without bekah and sooyoung :( i kinda miss those days

at least it's nice to see kahi rapping with her normal voice again!!

Honestly i want a japanese version of Ah! :innocent
instead of girly and soft new songs.
Or at least a new korean version with the 8 girls

AFTERSCHOOL’s new TV CM for Rexena, featuring their new song “Dilly Dally” which will air beginning April 9th!

yay !!!! Another new song, and if you want to see some captures you can visit fyaftherschool's tumblr

REXENA BTS AND CM AT THE END
DILLY DALLY SOUNDS REALLY NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so much better as an A-side than Rambling Girls imo..
and the dancing in the CF looks fierce :)
lots of Nana hahaha..she popularity in Japan is skyrocketing

they look awesome! especially Nana. she is so beautiful.
btw, i actually prefer Nana's voice over all of them. i know it's not close to being the strongest but it is just so cute :D i like that we can hear her more in the teaser.

With Nana's popularity in Japan now, I think they'll allocate more liens to her..esp from that teaser, she's singing the CHORUS over Raina.. O.O
and maybe this will be the best time to cash in on Orange Caramel in Japan..lol

the song sounds promising!!! i'm glad they' changing a little not giving raina the chorus :luv2

E-young and Lizzy needs more lines. it's not like they cant sing or have a weak voice. We've heard them belt higher notes

I actually miss UEE and Lizzy's long hair. And Nana is so pretty~ I can't wait to hear the full song in HQ, it sounds awesome!

Sounds like it's going to be really good!!

PLEASE SUPPORT AFTER SCHOOL'S OFFICIAL FACEBOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The song sounds so nice, another fierce song! But i hate the blue outfits.
And, wow a new member, AFTERSCHOOL is now a 9 member group again
