Salty and sweet, it hits hard and love the sass 
although still have to hear Thirsty with better audio quality
the situation in myville is so unstable, one moment we are in rage and the next we are so happy 
this is the song that they said feel like pringles, some fans already guess the title correctly
Sounds good!!
a win for us 
hoping the full album will be the same quality or even surpass that of Savage. Savage is still my holy grail 
Display Morethe information is wrote based on their own opinion (so mostly biased)
I agree
However, aespa is the one who will impacted the most because lsm x yyj used to be their main producer and both are leaving. So we might see aespa changing their sound and the comeback will be getting extended delay because of it
the change of direction is also what i worry the most tbh. My tl talked about how both kakao and hybe are interested in the metaverse business so from that i guess aespa's concept is safe for now? The music is another problem, idk how they're going to approach this
Display MorePersonally I'm fine with this, but that's because their concept and sound is not my main focus.
The metaverse concept does hold them back a bit IMO, and they've already had so much stuff delayed in part because they have to put so much in to it.
If they go SM 3.0 then I'd like to see a SMCU ep 3, finish off the story, and then after beating Black Mamba, open up the rest of Kwangya so they can do any concept as they travel through the metaverse.
This way the lore can be a part of their MVs and styling, but it become a interchangeable aesthetic that suits what they do (with some easter eggs in the mvs and stuff).
Anyway, I guess we will see what happens, but my gut feel is Aespa is safe either way it goes. Hopefully RV and Taeyeon too. SNSD for nostalgia's sake.
Reminds me of Everything Everywhere All At Once 
If this information is true, then Hybe is the best choice.

Display MoreDunno, I think it's a big shakeup and the SM we know won't be the same.
I think either way, Aespa and other successful groups will be fine, especially the newer ones - after all, these companies buying into SM will be looking for profitability. It's the ones that SM have held on to that I'd be worried about if I was fans of them. Those dead-weight idols will probably get cut too and the illusion of family that they have will disappear.
I think there are pros to each way it could go. I actually think they need to transition away from LSM, he's not getting any younger and more diversity in what they do isn't necessarily a bad thing. Kakao brings a ton of opportunity and resources, and SM will automatically be their prime label.
The Hybe route has the benefit of them being managed by a company that is about music first and foremost, and is one of the most influential worldwide.
I think Hybe gives a better route to immediate outside of Korea success, but Kakao secures their future in Korea basically forever.
Personally I'm leaning towards the Kakao version from what I've seen. It may not be the same SM everyone is used to, but progress will happen and I think LSM's time is pretty much done.
hmm i think i also prefer the kakao route. I read yesterday that sm and hybe would still be competing and i don't understand how that could be good to sm when their majority shareholder is also their direct competitor. I read on twitter that the reason chris lee team up with kakao is because they won't meddle with the entertainment side 
best side content ?
Idk if it qualify as side content, but this old video (the fact that i only need to scroll for few seconds to find this pains me) is cool and one of the most memorable for me because i always though the drawing that Ningning made on the shoes are so pretty

You know, posts like this always make me delusionaly think that maybe ae1 isn't as far away as we thought but then the next updates from the girls themselves crushed it

OMG this is soooo cool!! It's giving avatar and those VR experience. SM always deliver for their concerts and i hope they go far and beyond for this as aespa's concept gave them so many possibilities to be creative.
also guys if everyone is okay, since it seems like akp is not set for akorn tax yet, we will keep our akorn bank for the time being since i think it will be more beneficial to just save it up to help for future comeback badges (yk in case we have to fill up certain quota or if some of you need help). But if the akorn tax is official, we will go forward with purchasing 2nd guild badges.
Sure, i'll add you
When are they coming back ? I heard around april ?
at least this give me the assurance that the management is not going to ditch
