You say "hnnnngh", I say "haeeeein"

I don't mind admitting it - I liked Gangkiz.  The "Lovey Dovey" rip off "Honey Honey" was great, and the spaghetti western-influenced "Mama" was even better - it actually captured underrated pop/soundtrack producer Ennio Morricone's melodic and harmonic choices instead of just lifting his most well-known sound effects and square-pegging them into the round hole of k-pop melody, rhythm and harmony (most recent example of the latter: BEG's "Kill Bill").  Sure, they were just a bunch of models, they sunk like a stone commercially, their CEO is nuts, but like I give a fuck about any of that stuff if the songs are this good.  All that other shit is their problem, not mine.  Maybe no-one else bought that "Mama" mini-album but I SURE DID (ask me to show you on the stream next weekend, you know you want to), and I was sad when most of the members then (understandably) flew the coop.

Oh look, I just typed out a whole paragraph about Gang Kiz without mentioning Haein's boobs.  What was I thinking.

T-ara's "Target" is your boyfriend's jizz

Picture this.  Imagine that you're a young girl living in Korea, not necessarily a huge k-pop fan although you probably do listen to some of it, and you've been going out with your first boyfriend for a few months now.  You don't have a lot of time in this busy world, but you make the effort to meet occasionally with him when you're not studying or working 18 hours a day, he walks with you sometimes and you hold hands together and think pure thoughts.  He's a little socially awkward but he's basically a nice guy plus he really seems to like you.  Birds chirp, flowers bloom and all is well in the world.

Then one day, in a rare moment of synchronous study downtime, he invites you to his place for the first time.  He seems like such a great guy, really.  Nothing could go wrong, right?

Setting a Good Example With Kim Kwang Soo

Earlier today, Core Contents Media released a statement saying T-ara wouldn't endorse any alcoholic beverages.

That just means more money for the ho train. woot, woot
