Hello Venus Really Wants You To Fap To Them

AKFG innovation: Opperviewnity
Here at AKFG we love to be straightforward about what many aren't and occasionally be indirect or casually mocking about what others are typically straightforward. In an effort to contribute to the facilitation of the former, I have created this new word for you all to enjoy. It combines "Opportunity" with "Perv" and "View" and I suppose you could even pretend it also includes "Oppa" for certain "innocent (not actually innocent)" girl group concepts. (7학년1반, A Pink)
This would be a word for all those moments indirectly understood as only existing to scope out DAT BODY or otherwise fill your mind with perversions, yet in a context that pretends to be for a different, neutral reason. So for instance, gravure videos would be 97% opperviewnities, and the latest Dream Team episode with girl groups playing in tight clothing at the pool would be somewhere around 25-35% vaguely opperviewnistic yet 5% very blatant.
AOA provides a nice example with this video:

Hot sexy man-meat - locating the hottest guys in k-pop!
I've often been accused of being very gender-biased in my blogging,
and that as a heterosexual male I haven't been doing a lot of catering
to those who would like to see some hot sexy men being reduced to
objects for the voyeuristic pleasure of readers.
Since I'm obviously guilty as charged, let's rectify the situation immediately with a hunky k-pop guy post for all you heterosexual women and gay men out there!

The Bell Curve of Crazy: A Statistical Approach to Understanding Fandom Metrics
I've been meaning to write an article for Anti Kpop-Fangirl that somehow incorporated my areas of expertise, aka the bullshit I studied for 4 years of my life at college. I see how you all like it when Kpopalypse talks about his industry skillz, so I figured why not give it a shot.
And thus we come to my groundbreaking model for the wide range of... "behavior" we see in KPop fandoms today. Without further ado, I present to you, THE BELL CURVE OF CRAZY.

As presented by Fei. If there's anything I've learned from Kpopalypse, it's that people will pay more attention if hot people are used to present the information. |

Thoughtful Raina - the meme
Idol life is tough. There you are, sitting on a chair in a fake backyard by a fake white picket fence, holding a fake ice-cream made by food stylists with coloured frosting and powdered sugar, shooting a promotional music video. The video shoot sure is dragging on, it's 4AM and you've been awake for 26 hours straight, yet it's your duty to look alert and extra cheerful for the cameras - what a chore. You sure wish you were doing something else, but this is what being an idol is and you're stuck with it for now. On take 153 of your lines in verse 2, a thought pops into your mind... but what could it be?

Kpopalypse Nugu Alert Episode 6: Atomic Kiz, Hawon, Magic Flow ft. Rumble Fish
That's right sluts, it's time for another episode of:
The regular blog series where Kpopalypse brings you fresh/stale nugus for your enjoyment and/or bemusement! Read on as I shove down your fucking throat another group of k-pop performers that you don't care about and will probably forget the names of as soon as you're finished reading this, in the name of good humour and a misguided unrealistic belief in music industry equal opportunity.

Hi Suhyun's "I'm Different" Is Cancer For The Eyes, Ears and Penis
Hello everyone. I, HanYeSeul_Fag, am honored to take over AKF for Chuck oppar. Originally I was just going to hijack his account and post exclusively from it, but we talked it over and I made my own account. We're friends in real life and he has been looking for someone to take over the blog for a couple of years now, and with everyone he asked declining, he proposed that I take over it about six months ago. I have been studying the writing of the authors here and will develop my own style over time. AKF will still post from time to time, but as he is gearing up to get a professional job, he doesn't have any time to run AKF. Therefore, I am taking over, and my first official review under my new account is this terrible song.

"She Should Do JAV"; Bless Your Heart, Jiyoung
Normally, whenever some AKF authors gather in one location to chat, we talk about many things. A common topic we bring up is how Korea needs its own AV industry. Due to Korea's strict laws on making porn, it will not happen anytime soon. Therefore, we usually suggest that some hot idols go over to Japan and do JAV.

Kpopalypse's completely 100% accurate and legit* predictions for the future of k-pop
Well, 2014 is nearly over and most people are happy to put it behind
them. It hasn't exactly been an outstanding year for k-pop, with so
many controversies, scandals and tragedies. So what can we look forward
to in 2015 and beyond? Hopefully something better, right? It's a good
thing that I have my fantastic powers of ESP readily available to find
out the truth of what the future holds!

Prepping For Doomsday With AOA
If any of you have watched National Geographic's "Doomsday Preppers," you may have noticed that the show leaves off one very important rating criteria from its scorecard. The original scorecard ranks each doomsday prepper from 0-20 on 5 categories: food, water, shelter, security, and x-factor. Which category is the show missing? Fap material.

Music business 101 - the real deal for aspiring k-pop stars
Entering the music industry on any level in 2014 is exceptionally
difficult, yet there are many people who wish to become pop stars. With
the steady rise of k-pop's profile globally, Korea and k-pop is
positioned in the hearts and minds (mainly the hearts) of young people
around the world as a desirable field to hopefully break into. How
realistic are their dreams? Are k-pop hopefuls being delusional, or do
they have a realistic (if slim) chance of realising their goals?
Most importantly of all, if you were someone wishing to make a serious giving-it-100% attempt at breaking into the k-pop industry, what are the really important things that you would need to know? As someone who has spent quite a while in the music business in various capacities, I'm now going to give you the dirt on these important questions, so read on if you dare!

[MV] Hello Venus - StickySticky International Version
Yet again a lovely group has come back with... a real stinker. Yes, while Korea may love boring shit like Busker Busker and Lim Kim, when testing songs on Western ears agencies have found we desire something with a bit more... chutzpah, so to speak.
So, much like when After School tried to put us asleep with First Love, for the international release from Hello Venus we see Brave Bros getting his tired old ass kicked to the curb where he can listen to Ah and remember when he was relevant.
In his place we have a saucy track that fits the energy that the girls bring to the table, and I have used my deep connections with Alice, Lime, and Yooyoung to net us the exclusive premiere. Enjoy.

U.S. radio station hilariously edits 'I Am the Best'
A radio station in Boston played "I Am the Best" and hilariously edited out "naega" because it sounds like nigga. I'll admit when I first started listening to kpop I got a chuckle every time I heard that because to my disgusting non-Korean ears it does sound a bit like that. Now if only they could edit out the all of the lyrics as well as Bom and CL, we'll be set.
K-pop life lessons with Kpopalypse
Hey folks, it's Kpopalypse here. As someone a little older than the
average k-pop fan with lots of experience in the ups and downs of life,
I'm aware that a lot of younger people read my blogging, and therefore I
feel a certain sense of obligation to them to impart wisdom and
valuable life lessons. Of course if I just go around saying things like
"bike safety" and "don't play with matches" nobody is going to pay any
fucking attention, but that's where k-pop comes in - this post is all
about some of the fantastic things we can learn through k-pop music
videos!
Please note that the discussions of these videos contain plot spoilers, so be sure to watch the videos first (if you haven't seen them) before reading about the important life lessons that they contain! Let's get started and learn things!
