I love every pic, especially E-young, i really like her blonde hair

Where's Kahi?

Kahi graduated from After School in September 2012.

^I know, I was being sarcastic hahaha

I miss her, AS doesn't have a strong/iconic member since Kahi left :(

^True, Jungah needs some Kahi's energy

Ah thank god :laugh I thought you really didn't know. And I agree with you.
Although I do hope Kahi will make her solo debut soon. I need her on stage again.

The new comeback concept looks hott, but I think the Flashback concept is much better.

Looking forward to the song teaser.

This makes me think that the awesome "dark" teaser pics will be for that Las Vegas performance and that the softer teaser images are for First Love and that First Love might be like Shampoo or a ballad....

I hope not actually. :innocent

I really like Shampoo, but i don't think it's going to be like that, anyway they are already filming the music video

NO ONE POSTED THIS?!?! HAHAHA

^Omg :heart :thud I can't handle this.
I need to hear the songs now.

And Nana omg. She looks flawless.

Why do I get the feeling that First Love will be a slow song? :scry

Ga-In did it first hahahaha

Wondering if there's gonna be eight poles in the stage for them hahaha

Interesting !!
Bring the song now !!!
I can't wait

E-YOUNGIE IS STEPPING UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Omg E-young :heart finally. Can't wait to hear the song.

Lizzy was injured so she isn't in the picture. I hope she was somewhere in the MV though :/

POOR LIZZY ^

OMG Nana :)

I guess Lizzy is skipping this promotion cycle :(

she's probably like I AINT NO STRIPPER. DRINKS!!!! lol Nana seems to love this

omg that picture :heart

Nooo~ I need my Lizzy on stage!

EDIT:

source; allkpop

:scry Nooo Lizzy. Why?!

Noooooooooooooooo :headache
After School finally makes a comeback and now (my bias) Lizzy can't perform? Ugh, this would happen. :(

Can't she just dance around in a wheelchair?

I hope she appeared in the MV. I hope she just stays by the side to sing :(
but..argh...i want her to recover!!!! poor Lizzy

Very short practice video

:laugh
But seriously, she better be in the music video.

... and she could use the wheelchair to swing around the pole :yes

Maybe Lizzy won't appear in the dance scenes of the MV but instead she will appear in the close up shots? Same thing Pledis did with Hello Venus debut song. Their member Yoonjo was injured and was excluded in the dance scenes but she did appear in the close up scenes.

After watching this, I wanna bow down to our girls. :thud
edit: I heard Pole Artiste..wonder if its really them LOL



First Love Preview!!!!!!!!!!
Comeback Interview on Inkigayo..
(garh wth..Brave Bros really made is like SISTAR19's Gone Not Around Any Longer Pt 2)

omg the song sounds so amazing.

Was that interview filmed before Lizzy's injury? And Raina looks awesome with black hair!

I really like the preview, very sensual, it should be perfect with the pole dancing ♥
oh I love Raina and Jungah's new haircolor, so pretty! Not digging the blond on Eyoung tho...

^I like E-young's haircolor but I think she'd look better if they gave her the kind of hair color Jung Ah has.


EDIT: And wow, SBS already blocked the interview video.

EDIT II: Pledis, where is my MV teaser? I need one now.

^ Idk I think the blond is way too light, combined with ugly bangs.. >_< I do agree a more natural blond would look muuuuch better.

^:yes More of an ash blonde color would've been better. Also this light blonde color makes E-young look very pale in my opinion.

It sounds so SISTAR, i thought we could get a new BoY, anyway, i can't wait

"첫사랑 (First Love)" Teaser Video

There's flippin' incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!

edit: omg Lizzy and Raina arnt in the poledance scene?? :(

Wow...its going to be awesome comeback. Loving the teaser.

Poor Lizzy, hopes she gets well so she can join this comeback also.

OMG!!! E-young is WORKING that pole like seriously she's giving us a different side of her this time around I can't wait to see the actual pv also can't wait to see it live!! Song sounds a tad "sensual" though lmao we shall see

omg that teaser :heart

The song does sound a lot like SISTAR's material. But that doesn't mean I don't like it!

can't wait!

Found it kinda weird to be honest... Too much porn movie sountrack the teaser sounded to me...

I wonder if Ga-In approves it haha

http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphoto...60766200_n.jpg

new bTS photo

It looks beautiful and dangerous

I swear E-young's time has come :D

E-young :heart That song sounds seriously amazing. She's amazing, she has so much talent!

I like her better without the bangs ♥
She's really skilled, I'm sure they'll let her do more stuff in the future now that she's experienced :)

This is just the whorish non-sense I need in my life!

12 HOUR COUNTDOWN PLAYGIRLZ AND PLAYBOYZ!!!!!

more behind the scenes footage!!

The pole dancing looks amazing. Nana and E-young together :heart What an amazing choreography!

can't wait ♥

I think I liked it better they released their albums at midnight KST. Because then I would already be listening to After School.

But noooo, now I have to wait until tomorrow, until I come home from school which is around 6 PM :weep

After School IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the awesome awesome single! Love all the tracks so much :D

Dressing Room
Dangerously, sexy song


Love Beat
Electro song with sick beats and a futuristic vibe


Time's Up
Piano with strings cheery song. Nana and Uie rap fiercely.


Crying While Putting Makeup
A powerful and emotional duet

Live on MCountdown!

^_^ oh em gee that was flipping hot wish I wasn't working when everything started coming up but I must say well worth the wait hope lizzy gets better soon but it prolly won't be in time to promote ;( who knows maybe orange caramel will have something but right now I'm just so happy after school is back!!!

I just love First Love, it's so addicting and soothing. Perfect for me as I'm working all day long I need relaxing songs.
The overall single is really good as well <3

Wth is Nana wearing on her head really. Hot mess. But otherwise they're just gorgeous ♥

don't like it, the MV's weak and the song's even weaker. dissapointed,nothing special imo

^
Song is to slow for the choreo.
Pole dancing along with a afast paste song like flashback would have been awesome.
Good song but doesn't fit the MV

I made a cover of Jung-A and Raina's Duet :)
https://soundcloud.com/thefilght/cov...school-make-up
was a bit unstable on the bridge sorry ><

Finally they're back! This single is amazing!

I love the narration in 8 hot girl!

First Love is awesome. Even though I do think Brave Brothers could've been more creative with this song because it does sound like a SISTAR song but it's still amazing. And the pole dancing is flawless. Also Lizzy wasn't in any of the dancing scenes in the MV, was she?
Did they give E-young more lines? :yatta

Dressing Room and Love Beat are amazing. Time's up was the song composed by E-young right? It sounds really nice. Crying While Putting On Make Up is such a beautiful song, love it!

I love love love the music video. It's so unlike anything else out there right now; with the combination of colorful, solemn cut scenes and the different pole dancing sets. My only complaint is that Lizzy is hardly present :weep I don't understand why they couldn't have removed her cast for one full body shot? Maybe I'm just being greedy, but I wish she could have appeared more. The song isn't as amaaazing as Flashback but there's something very catchy about it.

I previewed the album on allkpop and I really like what I'm hearing. I see that it's up on iTunes US right now but I don't know if it's legitimate...? Can someone verify?

Not a big After School fan, but i really like First Love! Very daring release and definitely not what i expected, i love it! :yes

I haven't been keeping up with after school since they decided to do red and blue.
I gotta say is kind of disappointing how they have to "graduate", I remember clearly that
people were saying that they weren't going to be like Morning Musume.


I'm happy and sad that Kahi graduated to pursue her solo career but man.
The adding of new members is annoying, I think the should have stopped with Nana.
I know I'm late but I just wanted to voice my opinion.
I have so much catching up to do OTL.

Why would it not be legitimate? It's not like anyone can post music to iTunes. Plus, it says Pledis/Loen Ent.

Good points:
-Pool dancing is awesome.
-More E-young and Kaeun
-Sexy bodies

Bad points:
-This is their worst comeback song, seriously, the song isn't bad, but for me isn't catchy, it sounds like the second part of the colors of kpop (Red) song.
-Many injuries and bruises.
-We probably have to wait another year for another comeback.

You'd be surprised how many illegitimate albums are on iTunes. Also, the new single isn't with the rest of After School's releases and that often happens with bootlegs on iTunes.

You can upload anything to itunes





I'm catching up with first love and wowowowo I love it.

Bootlegs on itunes, wow i was not expecting that.
Another thing i like in this comeback is Raina's hair, finally she looks so damn gorgeous <3

The best thing about the comeback is E-Young, I completely ignored her before this!

Too bad the single cover was not the first promo pic, I wanted to buy it but the one that was chosen is not that great

Music Core



EDIT:

Do you guys know Eat Your Kimchi? After School ranked 3rd on their Kpop charts so hopefully they'll pick them out for a review this Monday!

^I saw that! They're even beating out SISTAR :heart I have a feeling that Henry or MBLAQ will be reviewed, though... they never pick third place :weep More people should vote for them so that they'll be reviewed next week!

Can somebody help me? Are these CD+DVD editions on eBay legit?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/After-School...item460fb4bfac

^ they are officially released by avex Taiwan. These are not bootlegs if that's what you were asking, just the Taiwan version of the maxi single. They often do CD+DVD combos for Taiwan presses, they did it for ORANGE CARAMEL's LIPSTICK as well :)

Is there CD+DVD editions for her past korean singles ?

they have a Taiwan CD+DVD version of the AS RED/BLUE single (combine together), as well as a CD+DVD of Virgin.

is so weird, half of the girls I don't even recognize.


in that hot performance you can see Jungah's bruises :(

Thank you! :D

After School on Star King!

You can watch some clips here: http://www.allkpop.com/article/2013/...g-on-star-king

:bsigh Yeah probably. Although I would really want them to review After School since they've never reviewed AS before. I think Simon could even bring his 'Oh so nasty' back from HyunA's Bubble Pop review they did :laugh

thanks for the info Utena

Guys sad news :(

credits; allkpop

First my two biases leave (Kahi and Bekah) and now two of my biases are injured :( I just hope E-young will be fine.

They won't last a month doing this performance >_>

Jung-Ah's hand is awful looking, I feel sorry for them (Though the lives are great), they are working too hard...

Also new Japanese song! (Don't know if it is OC's or AS')

I like the pole dancing, but i think it was just for the comeback in every show, now i think they could keep just with the normal dance routine.

Poor girls this comeback is so hard.

oh man that sucks... :/
Can't they just dance without the pole dancing thing? I mean, it's cool and pretty awesome but I think we've seen enough.

Nana fell from the stage in this show, she didn't fall from the pole

^She fell AFTER the performance.

whut..Just FYI, she isnt the only one who has fell off the stage at Show Champion. Baro from B1A4 did too...

Kaeun is struggilng with japanese lyrics, but she's gonna do her best

After all this is her first attemp to sing a japanese song

^After School is going to make a comeback in Japan ?? Where i can find that info please?

Oh and i found this:

^:yes I was thinking the same thing.

yeah I was gonna say.. isn't Kaeun almost fluent or something? ahah
Well I do hope they get some Japanese activity, it's been ages since Lady Luck / Dilly Dally.

Making of "First Love"

Saw then recording something in Japanese a few days ago. Perhaps First Love Japanese version? hahaha

From official facebook https://www.facebook.com/AFTERSCHOOL.jp?fref=ts

it seems to be Kaeun, it could be Uee or Raina too

After School fan project: http://playgirlzworld.com/messagebook/

The deadline is June 30th so if you wanna participate hurry up!
I actually wanted to do a handwritten letter but I don't think that's possible?

^:( That really sucks. And I really wanted a follow up song as well.

Does anyone know where I can find HQ scans of First Love?
