Agreed with everything Pow! have stated about their sales
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:

^^^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
Spoiler:
Etude is probably my favorite out of all their cutesy side of songs. It's adorable but not overly cute, and the song itself is meant for their age. Too bad they always cut the song for tv performances

I love this performance because in the end they're splashing water to each other lol and Tae still had her hair

^^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
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:
Spoiler:




she kinda looked like Yubin in the second pic haha

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 *_*

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!
