Tuesday Talk: Taeyeon & Baekhyun. Your Thoughts?
Hopefully, I don't have to explain much. I trust that you guys, as in-sync with K-Pop as you are, know the situation already (if not, the post about it is a click away). Girls' Generation's Taeyeon and EXO-K's Baekhyun are dating. It's been confirmed by SM Entertainment. It's been talked about by Taeyeon on Instagram in which she felt remorseful for it coming out the way that it did. It's been 'Dispatch-ed', with images of even the two snoodling up in a car and kissing each other. So for all the crazies who believe it ain't so, for fuck's sake, screw your head on tighter.
Anywho, this dating news has been getting a lot of talk lately so I want to see what you guys think about it. There's no right or wrong answer. There's no shaming or angry mobs surrounding your house if you go against the relationship or support it.
It's all you.

Comment-Ception; Is Girls' Generation on Decline?
The couple whom everyone, except rowdy KhunToria shippers, already knew were a "thing", has recently confirmed that they are actually a "thing" to the media. 2PM's Nickhun and Girls' Generation's Tiffany are now the fourth confirmed to have-happened-at-least-once relationship, with Girls' Generation's YoonA, Sooyoung and Hyoyeon whom we have speculated was dating on a previous article, anyway, in the lead. This couple, different than the rest has been met with more than just love: many people are taking Girls' Generation more into account than just the coupling and commenting as to how Girls' Generation is at their last straw. Whether that's true or not, we'll have to wait and see, but for now, I'll mostly focus on these sort of comments as a whole:
[+79, -10] SNSD is slowly on the decline
[+523, -155] SNSD's over now, farewell
And a comment from a regular non-K-netizen:
i'd say snsd is one step to their downfall.. sones can say its not true but their popularity isnt only about their fans-
Even Girls' Generation's Yuri has pointed out the validity of the statement. She realizes the short span of girl groups for example, S.E.S, FIN K L, even foreign ones like Spice Girls and Destiny's Child, reaching the top then plummeting to the ground in just years with maybe one or two from the disbanded group remaining in the limelight. And although no SONE wants to admit it, Girls' Generation is not free from that obvious ending. Their recent scandals, more specifically, Girls' Generation's Hyoyeon apparently attempting suicide and hitting her now ex-boyfriend (who's nearly a decade older than her) has emerged this feeling of bitterness towards the group of 9 girls. Many people have turned their backs on the group for years simply because they're growing weary or tired of them, however, after the poor feedback from their recent albums, starting from their Japanese works to even the I Got a Boy and Mr.Mr. album, even the smallest things are taking a blow on their buit-up image. Don't get me wrong, Soshi is still strong, but I wouldn't be very surprised if a few scandals later (at their rate, another scandal is simply inevitable), less and less positive comments will appear and will rather be overtaken by hatred. I mean, they're not getting any younger. Their music is not getting any better. Their attitude controversies with Taeyeon and Jessica nor their dating scandals are getting any less memorable.
Perhaps they truly are at their last straw.
Regardless of the empty threats of SONE fans on the Interweb, the resilient truth should still be made known. No one can say they haven't yet reached their potential or they still have a lot of time left as we always hear and see defenders argue.
They have reached their potential.
They don't have much time left.
They have already begun their gradual fall from the top since The Boys was released.
I'm sorry but not really sorry to break it to you.
So:
The top girl group, Girls' Generation, will not remain Girls' Generation for much longer as stated in a previous article in which bitter argument was released in the comment section, delusion on SONE's part. Although we should be happy the girls are dating, we should also be aware of their obvious fate which is just around the corner. Splitsville. Disbandment. SoshiGone. Likewise, Girls' Generation's Yuri is intelligent and should shed more light on their fate to soften the blow of delusional fans. The fate is simply inevitable. Even though many promise to hold their favorite girl group at the top, it happens to everyone and it can never be changed.
#HadtoBeSaid: I'm Genuinely Scared for Taeyeon
Taeyeon. The main vocalist of South Korea's national girl group, Girls' Generation, is undoubtedly one of my Woman Crush Wednesday picks. However, for the past year (or even more) I have always been kind of scared for Taeyeon and sad, her, barely ever even smiling regardless of the situation, always saying somewhat morbid things that SONEs usually pass by as just another 'Taeyeon thing' (like Onew Condition... oh gosh, I remember the time I was so deep in the SHINee fandom I could barely get out) and never really bringing up the problem that this girl actually doesn't look so... happy anymore.
This issue came up to me around the I Got a Boy era when Taeyeon outwardly admitted her depression, saying this on KBS 2TV's Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook:
“After my schedule is finish, I return home and feel lonely and empty inside. I don’t know what to do about it,” she remarked.
Despite her apparent depression, she also revealed that unlike most of her other group mates, she hasn’t cried recently, suggesting that she has been keeping many of her feelings to herself until now.
as well as fellow Girls' Generation member, Sunny, on Radio Star saying this about Girls' Generation's Taeyeon's recurring depression:
"I wish Taeyeon would stop [getting wrapped up in her] depression. I'd like it if you would stop listening to sad music and putting yourself in a corner when you already don't feel good. When you're feeling down, come to me. I'll make you [a soju-beef cocktail], and I'll sing happy songs for you and do cute things."
Most people have been brushing the obvious signs of Taeyeon's unhappiness as if it is nothing. Not only did she outwardly admit it up there, but you can also see her sadness through music videos, pictures and recordings of shows, Taeyeon having a blank and nearly dead face when she was lip-syncing her parts on the more recent Mr. Mr music video, on the Mr. Mr M! Countdown performance, unlike her fellow group mates who may have lacked smiles yet had an obvious enthusiasm when they tried to act fierce, Taeyeon still wore that blank face like it was a tampon, and of course, the more memorable, Katy Perry photos taken with Girls' Generation, in both Taeyeon wears a blank, dull face similar to that in almost all of the photos that are taken of her other than her Instagram photos.
Depression is a serious issue and I can really just imagine a shit load of SONEs reading this thinking things like "Taeyeon's not depressed! You're just jealous!!11" because of course, "angels" cannot be sad and instead are always happy without even realizing the severity of this issue. I don't even think this is just a "phase" or maybe Taeyeon is just "sad' temporarily. I have noticed this for an elongated period of time and this girl just seems like her hiding of feelings and never crying is just putting more weight on her shoulders. It looks like now she's just going along just because she has to not because she wants to and I'm almost positive that there's something more than just what Taeyeon brings to the table.
It surely can't be just be thinking this. Does anyone else notice the oddness in Taeyeon's behavior? Place your opinions in the comment section below.
All This SNSD & 2NE1 Postponing is Giving Me a Headache
It's one thing to have YG Entertainment postpone the shit out of things.
It's another thing to have SM Entertainment postpone the shit out of things.
But it sure as hell is yet another thing to have both companies do it simultaneously to show their competition.
And that's what both of the largest companies are doing with their most popular girl groups yet. Girls' Generation and 2NE1 are both said to be having a comeback... however, we will never know when since the second the companies released they were coming back, they've been postponing the shit out of each other, wondering who will finally just give up and release their comeback first for the sake of the fans who are shitting themselves, waiting for a new release.
I' m actually kind of excited about this since it might not be an all-dance video judging by the teaser?
As everyone should know, Girls' Generation and 2NE1 have been said 'rivals' since however long we can even remember. Coming from two rivaling companies, both of the groups having two completely opposite 'feels', both of their fans fighting through the interwebs ever since SONEs got tired of fighting Wonderfuls, ELFs, Cassies... yeah, everyone, for years, Girls' Generation and 2NE1 sure have a lot on their backs now and it seems like, as I remember my High School AP English teacher told me after we just got got finished reading Antony's Oration (for those who don't know, you're probably too young to have read Julius Caesar), if you want to win if a fight, it's better to show your side last and speak last since you'll have the longer lasting impression on the audience since everyone will forget what the hell the first one was saying... which is probably the same advice both companies are going by.
In any means, just like a few years ago with Girls' Generation and 2NE1 had the same "head-to-head" competition aka with Tell Me Your Wish and I Don't Care (wasn't really head-to-head, 2NE1 released their song shortly after Girls' Generation did), I feel as if SM Entertainment is now striking back for the extra two dollars they probably didn't make back then with delaying the shit out of Girls' Generation's comeback with every delay of 2NE1's song until YG finally drops the act and gives up then both of them literally do comeback head-to-head and on the same day, to show who the real winner is... and to show YG Entertainment that SM Entertainment is sure not going to break that fast when there's a clear challenge.
Creyawn Pawp's Way iz a betch!!11 Shee pooshed Sawnny!!1
Well, well, well. I always knew Crayon Pop was no good. Plagiarizing concepts, being ilbe bugs, climbing their way to the top with Bar, Bar, Bar which is just alien code for 666... and now, one of the members pushing Girls' Generation's Sunny in the back? How monstrous!...if it actually did happen. Apparently, Crayon Pop is swept into yet another scandal, this time, with their sunbaes Girls' Generation in which one of the members, Way, was accused of pushing Sunny in the back then posing for the camera like the devilish little fiend she is... or at least what people who are almost legally blind think that she is just because of unfortunate timing.Don't believe me? Watch the video clip that the director should be taken some blame for since the quality obviously sucks for yourself, where clearly Tiffany pulls Sunny a little bit closer since she's blocking the Crayon Pop girls (hence why both Sunny and Tiffany move up), Yoona looks back at around 0:08 in a direction that looks like it's towards Way as a result of the push, but if you have logical thinking, would obviously know that Yoona would have to back up a little bit more in order to see Way clearly and was probably just looking in that direction as a result of the Tiffany-Sunny pull, the pushee, Sunny doesn't even flinch or look back at the pusher and Way moves her hand up to her face which were previously down because obviously, if you want to make aegyo-filled peace signs by your face you have to first move your hands up towards your face.
Found this comment on the Youtube video:

Clown and goddess .Pshh. crayon pop even if you dont push .you have no rights to stand near our girls
Chrome Entertainment has already spoke up about it however, of course, an entertainment company is always going to defend their money maker in the midst of conflict therefore, I feel like since Sunny now is connected to fans through social networking, she, or SM Entertainment, should clear up it up as soon as possible in order to get this behind netizens.
What's your take on the scandal? Did Crayon Pop's Way push the fuck out of Sunny or was Way just at the wrong place at the wrong time and is innocent?

So... Sooyoung's Dating, Too
Wanting to catch up with Dispatch's great news of catching New Years couple Yoona and Lee Seung Gi on the role, Sports Seoul recently released pictures of Sooyoung and Jung Kyung Ho on a few dates and different from what they were previously doing which was straight up deny it (Jung Kyung Ho even made unnecessary, somewhat demeaning comments about his girlfriend) now that they have pics, SM has gotta go with it! So, Sooyoung who said she was "lonely" literally just one day before their dating news when discussing the SeuNa relationship and Jung Kyung Ho who jumped through tunnels and walls and originally denied it and called Sooyoung a "non-celebrity" (k-netizens having fun with this insult) are now getting praise from cyber-citizens but also hate for not saying something sooner and lying like rugs about it (the funniest was Sooyoung's lonely story just a day before).
So there shoulda been confessing at the start of rumors... cause instead of her image going down with dating, it's going down with lying.
And yeah, celebrities lie all the time, yadda yadda yadda. But I just wanted to point out that I can understand the opposing view and the hate storm being thrown at 'em right now.
Sorry I'm not being "sugar sweet".
Nevertheless, love this couple. Love Sooyoung. Just wish it was easier to confess. Not to mention, Girls' Generation's dancing line seems to be the first to confess/have relationships. Hyoyeon, YoonA and Sooyoung... is Yuri next? And will Girls' Generation change their name to Women's Generation?
Comment below on your take of the whole SooKyung(?) couple!
