para mr. simple, simple
SUPER JUNIOR'S 5TH ALBUM IS OUTTTT. Labels: 5th album, singapore, super junior
ALSKDJLQKJWDLKQJD.
but I'm not getting it.
Know why?
Here's a transcript of my initial reaction to seeing their concept artwork (granted, only Ryeowook's artwork):
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT. WHAT IS WITH ALL THE PSYCHEDELIA AND NEON COLOURS. ARE THEY TRYING TO BE DELIBERATELY IRONIC?"
Overall impression: Pretty meh.
Transcript of hearing and watching the Mr. Simple MV:
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT. WTH HAPPENED TO EUNHYUK'S HAIR. WTH HAPPENED TO SIWON'S HAIR. WHAT TECHNO CRAP IS THIS."
Overall impression: Pretty bad.
But after forcing myself to listen (not to mention refresh) the song over and over again, it finally got addicting (albeit fairly annoying.) and I began to like it a little better.
Honestly, though, what were the hairstylists thinking when they created this new look?
Siwon's hair does not flatter him D:
Eunhyuk's hair makes him look paler than he already is D:
THEY MADE KYUHYUN DYE HIS HAIR A LIGHTER BROWN. DD:
The other members looked fine, though. Heechul's stoner/rocker image suits him, Yesung's hair is the same as Bonamana, and Shindong's hair is back to the mushroom-shaped 'do from the 3rd album.
Yes, I keep track. Don't judge me ):
Eeteuk and Sungmin look hot. Thank you for sparing them(:
(and I have no comments for Donghae and Ryeowook; they're decent in my books.)
...
Yeah, I'm just gonna wallow in despair and return to the high-times of the 3rd album, or more specifically, Neorago (because that was probably THE song that made me love Suju in the first place)
Anyway, to catch up on events that have transpired this week:
BACK IN SINGAPOREEEE. But I'm going back to Beijing again on the 18th. Boo.
Heard Mr. Simple. Details are probably as you've read.
Caught up on parodies and generally utilized Youtube and Facebook to the best of my needs. Lord knows when I'll have access to them again after this summer.
In any case, go listen to Mr. Simple on youtube, it'll help the view numbers(:
(feel free to mute the song, of course. and you can work on something else with the video playing on a separate tab.)
I'm sorry, Suju, but as of now, not a really strong supporter :X
