^^but that's the ~average~ size here so... :laugh

I just think the idea's stupid. Stick to AKB and stop with all these other groups. The ones within Japan that aren't AKB are bad enough (SDN not included).

many of them were born in 1995-1997
theye are toooo greeennnn...lol....

just checked at the photos, and I realize 2 thing...
#1 they're not ugly at all, just plain
#2 1 of them is Japanese ? o__O"

In any case, I agree that they look like akb48 does. A lot of those girls arent cute at all.

lol idk that one of them is Japanese :0

Isn't the basic concept of idol groups is to make over the ~average~ girls into well-known-above-average girls?

Try to search any popular idol groups members during the audition, most of them aren't looks cute or beautiful from the beginning.

So I think those girls are ok.

according to the JKT48 fanbase twitter (jkt_48)
they already finished recording with DELAPAN STUDIO. And they'll sing both Japanese and Indonesian. They're scheduled to debut this mid December.

^so...they will have career in Japan as well?

the debut in mid-December! so fast! hoho, I want to see them XD

JKT48 on Japanese news


JKT48 x Pocari Sweat Indonesian CM

their Japanese is not really awkward, I think, they spelled it good xD

They were on Indonesian TV the other day and introduced themselves.

I'm sorry, but some of you guys are so rude or I just have very different tastes because I think that a lot of these girls are very pretty.

a lot of these girls are pretty, but they don't have the glamour and make-up from AKB48

JKT48 x Pocari Sweat new CM - Heavy Rotation

^not bad...
to be honest i'm cheering for them now, i think it could open a new door for JPOP to get famous again

It's confirmed that the PV they're shooting yesterday is Heavy Rotation, dunno what version is it.

Anybody want to download the 1 minute, 9 seconds version of JKT48 - Heavy Rotation? Here's the link~ http://jkt48.org/jkt48_heavy_rotation.html

Afterall, for an Indonesian girl group, they really make the process smoothly like Japan. Introduction > teaser > CM > debut. All I saw in twitter, JKT48 is had very good response in Indonesia '__'a

their Pocari Sweat CM airing for a lot of times, almost everytime i turn on TV, i saw the CM..

so they will sing in Japanese?

like I said before, they'll sing both in Indonesian and Japanese.
