Look at the faces on that audience!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLWo-60lcCU


Possible reactions:

Mrs. Lee: Those women should be shot for wearing those short dresses.
Mr. Lee: Agreed!

(Privately, Mr. Lee knows he will be ordering his young female "minder," provided by KJ Il and the Party, to dress up like Kim EZ and spank him on Friday night).

Their reaction was similar to mine when watching any modern Korean music group: "What the f*ck? Do they really think this is music?"

Give me traditional Korean music any day of the week (as long as its not 7 am on Saturday morning).

Peace

Traditional Korean music is some of the worst on the on the planet. Baby Vox isn't bad for k-pop music. But really your opinion holds no weight on anything you comment on in these forums as long as you preach your stupid "I talk to aliens" beliefs. Frakking retard.

Seriously if I was a North Korean in that audience, I'd be thinking "Everything the Dear Leader (or is that Great Leader?) told me about how South Korea is being whipped by the US is true."

Also, I bet the audience enjoyed the music more than it looks; it's just hard to suddenly be faced with live music like that. There'd be a great deal of embarrassment toward even nodding your head.

Never a truer word spoken about a Baby Vox performance.

To be fair though, I'm not altogether convinced that the crowd looks like it's ready to "bump"

Well there's a difference between not being ready to and not knowing how. Being an audience member takes practice.

I remember a few years ago I followed Suck Stuff to this weird show they had in Hongdae. A bunch of middle school girls were shipped in for a show featuring modern Hongdae bands in some hole-in-the-wall venue. It was one punk band and three hip-hop bands. The girls were no older than 16 I'd say. They'd never been to a punk show, so they just stood in front of the stage and...clapped their hands. What else did they know to do? It ended up being a very successful show and my friends got mobbed out front by these schoolgirls who suddenly realised: "Hey, we should develop crushes on and stalk these guys!" I could probably find a video clip if anyone's really that curious.

What do you think about those who talk to those who talk to aliens? Are they "frakkin" retarded once removed?

And Korean culture hasn't been whipped by everyone else from Japan to China in the last several hundred years? Take a trip up to the border with China, and count the North Korean women working as prostitutes. Take a look at the Discovery Channel videos about hunger and poverty in North Korea.

Sure.... we're all dying, our children are slaves and whores for KJ Il and the Chinese, but by god, we aren't being whipped by that evil USA -- learning to dance like THAT!!!

Laughing Laughing Laughing

I bet they're wondering why they are so healthy and tall-looking. At least they eat. The US can't be all that bad, once pride is put away.

I'm sure those Baby Vox ladies tower over most of the men they came in contact with in North Korea.

Many of us forget that these are elite party members and wives. They all have TV's, courtesy of the SK gov't three years ago, and have probably seen all of this countless times on MBC.

Well, someone has to teach them.


As for the stony faces, there may well be repercussions if they seemed to be enjoying it.

Gotta love how they all had the same black suits. Except for the ajummas in the hanboks, it looked like a MIB convention.

Why were they lip-syncing? That was the greatest farce of the whole event. The dear leader will come out and announce that they can't sing, so they needed to have the CD played. Maybe the Norks didn't have enough power for the amps? Laughing

Do you really need to overanalyse my joke that much?

I guess they won't be releasing a greatest hits compilation in NK any time soon.

Actually, if any of the North Koreans had let on that they actually liked the song, they would have been sent out in the country for reeducation.

Baby Vox should have sung this one for a bit of attitude :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pe9zZFlfDpc&mode=related&search=

Would have gotten a few heads bobbing.

In a perfect world, they would have sung a Korean version of this song.

Well that's brilliant. Are you the founder too, Dr. Paul Daniel Payne? I went to your website and watched the webcast, I mean listen to this guy, or just look at him and you can see he's full of it. Give him credit though, it takes balls to put yourself out there for people to see as a fool. http://www.yeshuafellowship.org/ I guess it is better than never being seen at all though for someone who's never had enough attention and could never find enough selfworth in himself.
How do I know you're a liar about your beliefs? I could go back and point out all the clues that I've seen in your past writings, but you might understand this explanation better. When I was a child, I was out walking in the woods with my grandfather. I was maybe 7 years old at the time. My grandfather was a really good teacher. He liked to show me all of the nicest places, remote waterfalls, most beautiful streams and moutains. This summer day though he brought me to a big pine tree, the largest I had ever seen and told me "Touch it". I said to grandpa, "That's okay", and he said, "No, touch it". So I did, and when I reached out my hand I felt almost and electric shock and was really light headed. My grandfather then told me "Now you can see clearly like me" and ever since that time, I was able to see right through a man and could see if they were speaking the truth or not. Did God give me this gift, was it aliens, or was it simply the power of a pine tree? Who knows.

I am not quite sure what your reason is for being so mean-spirited, but if you think I did not expect such opinions when I began the website, you must think I'm pretty naive. Anyway, thanks for the publicity~

Peace
