Korean umps suck.

Those were both balls.

If I said anything shitty in this thread at any point, I take it all back.

I don't think I did, but same.

The fact that they didn’t realize they were getting trolled is chefs kiss.

Amazing.

I heard about this earlier this afternoon. When I did, I mentioned it to my just now 14 year old, and 12 year old, and they knew all about it. First time those fuckers scooped me.

The kids give me hope.

When everything started to coalesce and riots, looting, and protests persisted across the country I saw this tweet:



I was like "Wait...KPop is involved in this!?!?" I saw photos of everything else. But not KPop.

Did you know that 2 weeks ago KPop super group BTS donated $1 million bucks to BLM and their fans matched it within a day???

So it is not surprising, to me, that KPop was responsible for the empty arena. (Plus I lived in Korea for a year, so I know how awesome that country is just in general.)

This.

Reading about this late last night was like reading a happy bedtime story - went to sleep with a smile on my face.

It's made all of the TikTok dances I've had to watch my sons do worth it.

SUCH an exquisite troll. I am still thrilled that they pulled this off:

Just amazing that people who so vehemently eat their own BS can be a viable threat to win another election. JFC

I swear if Korean or Chinese drama/music fans on the internet ever mobilized to do something, we'd be in serious trouble. BTS is the biggest thing in the world.

They seem to have mobilized to fuck with the Trump campaign and white supremacists.

Daughter has gotten on this korean language kick. Anyone got movie recommendations? Even better if some mechanism to gift. Don't think they do dvds anymore.

PARASITE.

The Train to Busan is fantastic, but it IS a zombie movie (probably the best one I've ever seen).

Yeah halfway watched that one with her the other night. So I understood nothing. But definitely where the idea came from.

Surely you're turning on subtitles, right? Or is your daughter trying to really understand the language and not use subtitles?

Yep. She's doing some sort of online training so more like listening for one of the 20 words she knows and reading in english.

What genre does she like? Korean movies generally suck. Dramas are better.

Teenage. Other than that I need to find out what goes on in her head. Difficult mission. Cartoons ok.

Asked her. Hallmark type stuff. Movies about books shes read.

Teenage. There a new drama called True Beauty based on a web toon. It's like Ugly Betty. It's on viki.com.

Mystic Pop-Up Bar on Netflix was a very enjoyable Korean series.

Thanks!

Black pink with two car loads of teenagers.

There's a new fad in Korea. 3 cushion billiards with hot players. Ladies Professional Billiards Association.



Rules are simple. It's become my ASMR, something quiet in the house on TV.

The object of the game is to carom the cue ball off both object balls while contacting the rail cushions at least three times before contacting the second object ball.

That may be the most boring sport I have ever seen.

Those ladies aren’t close to hot enough to make that watchable

It's pool I don't think it can be that exciting. But it's getting big crowds and views.

God, I need to stop looking at this thread.

They're back, in their 30s, kind of a reunion show.



Alone is probably the best girl group K-Pop song ever.
