I think it looks way prettier

+Her previous makeup style often emphasizes the eyeliner and lashes




theqoo

-Her new makeup style suits her age and herself even more!!! She looks so beautiful...

-I love both makeup styles on herㅠㅠ Her previous style makes her look like a tiger and her new style makes her look like a baby, so cute...

-I wonder what product she uses for her eyebrows... The color looks pretty and it suits Ningning really well...

-Hul... I didn't know that makeup style was this important... She suits light makeup way better...

-Her facial features are really distinctive. She looks even prettier with light makeup.

-She looks sweeter and prettier with light makeup...

-Ningning looks more gorgeous as time passes by...

-She looks beautiful with either style, but her new style suits her age better...

-I think Ningning looks prettier as time passes by. She looks really outstanding these days. Not to mention that she looks stunning in those pictures.

-She suits light makeup better because her facial features are distinctive...

-Her skin looks really nice...

-She looks like a different person nowㅋㅋㅋ She looks so much prettier with this makeup style!

-Whoa... I think her new makeup style looks better. Her previous style was more like Chinese makeup style and her new style is more like Korean makeup style.

Aespa's Ningning seems to have changed her makeup style today as seen in the press pictures

 

You spent 3 Million KRW to win that fansign lottery...

'Guys, if it was my wedding... You can just go to the fansign'

theqoo 

-I would be really upset if I can't go to the fansign I spent 3 M KRW to win...

-If it was my best friend, I'd rather go to her wedding over the fansign...

-If it was my wedding, you can just go to the fansign, guys. I'd totally understand it. 

-I'm sorry, but I'd probably go to the fansignㅜㅜ To my friends, if this ever happens to you, you can just go to the fansign...

-If it was my wedding, I'd tell my friends to go to the fansign...

-Knowing my best friend, she would absolutely tell me to go to the fansignㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-My best friend would probably scold me if I chose her wedding over the fansignㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm sorry, my friend!!

-If it was my wedding and my friend told me she spent 3 M KRW to win that fansign lottery, I'd probably tell her to go to the fansignㅋㅋㅋ

-My friend would probably tell me to go to the fansign, but I'm sure she would be upset...

-If you're a real friend, you'd choose to go to her wedding...

-I'd choose my friend's wedding over anything. If this happened to my friend and she chooses the fansign over my wedding, I probably would cut her off...ㅋㅋㅋ

If the wedding date of your friend of 8 years and the fansign date overlaps, where will you go?

I asked Eunchae if she would be disgusted if I was a cockroach and went to the fansign, saying that it's a trend to ask questions like that these days. Eunchae replied, 'Unnie, that trend is already over'. It's really difficult to understand MZ Gen. 

theqoo 

-Ah, that trend is already over...?

-Eunchae-ya, that just started becoming a trend for us...

-Ah... I didn't know that trend was already over. I'm sorry for being too lateㅋㅋㅋ

-Eunchae-ya, as long as that trend still hasn't made it to Running Man, it's not over yet...

-Eunchae-ya, I'm sorry for not being able to keep up with the trends...

-This is freaking hilariousㅋㅋㅋ Eunchae-ya, I just heard about that trend nowㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-God damn it...ㅠㅠ It's really hard to keep up with Gen Z...

-That was a trend?ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Eunchae-ya, that's still trending for Ahjummas like me...

-I got it, Eunchae-ya. I won't ask questions like that againㅠㅠ

-If Eunchae said that trend is already over, that means we should stop doing it.

-What? I didn't even know it was trending and it's already over now...

-What's the answer, though?

I asked LE SSERAFIM's Eunchae if she would be disgusted if I was a cockroach and came to her fansign...

EXO's Kai has announced that he will be enlisting next week, raising curiosity about the military service law related to his enlistment. 

A representative from the Military Manpower Administration stated, "The postponement of the enlistment date for those who are about to fulfill their military service is possible up to 5 times within a range of 2 years." The official explained, "Among the reasons for postponing enlistment, 'other reasons' can also be applied up to two times, which is included in the total of 5 postponement chances." 

On the 3rd, SM Ent. announced, "Kai was preparing for EXO's comeback that is scheduled for this year, but due to recent changes in military regulations, he will be entering the training center on May 11th to receive basic military training before fulfilling his duty as a social service worker."

Kai was preparing for EXO's comeback to celebrate their 11th debut anniversary this year. However, both Kai and his fans were caught off guard when he suddenly had to enlist next week. According to the military service law explained by an official, it seems that Kai has used up all of the five possible postponement chances, including for overseas performances and other schedules.

theqoo

-This is his company's mistake. SM is so stupid.

-This is clearly the company's mistake. Kai is a '94 liner, he's already at the age to enlist. The company should've foreseen this, especially if they have already used up all the chances to postpone his enlistment.

-The company should take care of its artists, especially since they gain money from them. Isn't that the reason why companies exist in the first place?

-I'm sure Kai himself knew that he had already used all the chances to postpone his enlistment. He could get notified to enlist anytime now and he wasn't prepared at all, isn't that so careless of him? It's true that the company's plan may have been faulty as well, though.

-1) Kai has never said that he didn't want to enlist. 2) Kai has never talked bad about SM Ent. 3) Kai knew he was going to have to enlist soon. 4) The reason why Kai cried = It's been 5 years since EXO had a full-group comeback and fans have been eagerly waiting for it. However, now that Kai is unexpectedly enlisting, he won't be able to show fans everything he's prepared for. He cried because he felt sorry for his fans. 5) The reason why fans are angry at SM = There are two members born in 1994 in EXO and the two of them are enlisting soon, but the company didn't have any plans and just delayed their comeback date. Got it? They were supposed to comeback earlier this year.

-Why are people blaming Kai? Do they think Kai can just make a comeback whenever he wants? Those who say that he's careless and should've taken care of everything himself are not making any sense. It's not like he did this on purpose. I'm not a fan but I'm sure Kai's fans are already upset enough by the news...

-I was wondering why people are so angry to hear this... Turns out it's because EXO won't be able to comeback as a full-group if he enlists. The company should've released EXO's comebacks sooner since they have members who are born in 1994 and could enlist to the military anytime now...

'New-I-LE is the coined term that K-Pop fans use to refer to the top 3 girl groups of the 4th Gen: New Jeans, IVE, LE SSERAFIM. They are not just simply considered the top 4th Gen K-pop girl groups, but they are also bringing a shock to the industry. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are leading this new scene with tremendous power. 

First of all, their achievements on domestic music charts. New Jeans wrote a new history by staying at #1 for 99 days with 'Ditto' on Melon, the largest music streaming platform in Korea. IVE has been dominating the top of various music charts, including Melon, for a month, with their title track 'I AM' and pre-release track 'KITSCH'. LE SSERAFIM is also making an impact on the music charts with the title track from their first full album released on the 1st of this month, 'Unforgiven'. 

Above all, these groups are expected to last long as they have messages that are not easily volatile. New Jeans show the truth about how all generations can move forward together by having a common understanding of the past. IVE demonstrates how self-love can be elevated to an iconic level. LE SSERAFIM shows the ambition to break through and move forward against difficulties and prejudices. These sincere messages are resonating with many people. 



-The whole world is crazy for New Jeans and IVE

-I think (G)I-DLE, ITZY, and Aespa are in the 3.5th Gen and IVE, LE SSERAFIM, and New Jeans are in the 4th Gen...

-I really enjoy listening to these three groups' songs... 

-New Jeans is the only rookie group here... I feel like the rest are the spin-off of IZONE...

-I love 'New-I-Le'. I'm always looking forward to these three groups...

-I somehow feel like Aespa is in the 3.5th Gen, not 4th Gen because I feel like they debuted way before these three groups...? I'm not a fan, but I agree that 'New-I-Le' are the trend these days...

-It's funny how people said Aespa opened the door for the 4th Gen when they released 'Next Level' and now they're saying that Aespa is in the 3.5th Gen...? 

-It's ridiculous how some people question LE SSERAFIM when they're actually that popular...

-I agree, because 'New-I-LE' were really impactful last year. Besides, I feel like ITZY and Aespa are in the 3.5th Gen.

-Why are you guys fighting?

-I think people are grouping these three because they debuted in the similar period of time... Aren't you guys tired of always fighting?

K-pop is in 'New-I-LE' era now ... New Jeans-IVE-LE SSERAFIM Syndroma

theqoo

-It's not good to obsess this kind of thing... Unless if they're on another level like BTS, this thing will only make these groups have more haters...

-They remind me of S.E.S-FINKL and Wonder Girls-SNSD

-I'm not a fan of these groups, but I totally agree with this post... I don't think this is something we have to fight over...

-I really like New Jeans' songsㅠㅠㅠ I hope they'll have a comeback soon...

-Why are people fighting over this? These two groups are what I immediately think of when I read the title... Both New Jeans and IVE dominated the music charts last year...

-It hasn't even been a year since they debuted and yet they already ranked #1 in Melon Daily chart for 117 times?? That's crazy...

-New Jeans is also doing really great in overseas music chartsㅋㅋㅋ I think they're the top girl group of the 4th Gen...

-I even made a special playlist for these two groups because I really like their songsㅋㅋㅋ I will never get sick of their songs no matter how many times I repeat them...

-I'm not a K-pop fan. They are the only idol groups I listen to.

-New Jeans' members are seriously so adorable...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
