Here is a picture of it.

I don't think there's a video of Reina messing up. She said somewhere that it happened, but there's no video of it.

i just happens to catch a clip of Morning Musume in Korea, (yonhapnews 20071027) and in the clip they mentioned JYP's Wonder Girls and SM's Girls Generation. i'm just curious as to what was going on, since i listen to both those groups as well. were they like comparing their music and dance styles or pointing out some similiarity?

btw, a while back, wasn't there supposed to be a korean remake of Love Revolution 21? what ever happen with that? and did any other korean artists did a cover of anymore MM or H!P songs?

As far as I know Ai-chan, Risa and Koharu said they liked Wonder Girls and that they have good skin xD I saw a Korean news page with a video of Ai-chan, Risa and Koharu's press conference in Korea and a video of one of SNSD's performances below too but I don't know what it was about. I guess some people have pointed out some similarity but I don't think it was in a plagiarism kind of way. I heard somewhere Korea doesn't have many girl groups so maybe that's why.

^when i mentioned something like similarity, i didn't mean it like plagiarizing in any way. what i mean is like comparing their style. u know like all three group have cute, sexy, beautiful girls. but morning musume seem to have more of a cute image while SNSD and Wonder Girls have like a sexy image. that's what i meant.

bump for this question.

also what scandal was Kusumi in that I keep hearing about.

^ I don't know the anwser to the heike one, but as for the Koharu one, I'm sure that was nothing. Someone posted in the gossip section saying that his friend thinks that Koharu would get into some trouble, something like that, but nothing was proven because there wasn't any evidence given. (correct me anyone if I'm wrong)

Oh, well, just to make it clear then xD Anyway, I think they are compared to SNSD mostly because both are numerous girl groups, there could be a style comparison as well though.

[youtube=425,350]eZ6_OPbdgNQ[/youtube]

It became a huge hit in Korea. But the song's lyrics was changed to be purely about dating, and I'm not a fan of it >.> I'm glad it's helped to get more exposure for Momusu over in Korea... but seriously, this remake song is terrible... ugh.

Besides Hyun Young, I don't think any other Korean artists have remade any H!P songs yet.

This is very true. Since the 90s there have been numerous Korean girl groups and generally their image have been more "sexy" compared to the "cute" image of Japanese girl groups. There's also a general difference between Kpop and Jpop songs as well. Jpop songs are more "poppy" while Kpop songs are more "r&b/hip hop".

^ I think the song is okay, but not knowing any korean I can't tell what it's about.

got a question:when Melon Kinenbi sung English songs, I believe they weren't in their Live House DVD, were they on a tracker with the songs on them?

RatBastich · « **Reply #573 on:** October 30, 2007, 09:34:04 PM »

The english covers were left off due to copyright concerns.

If I remember right, someone had put a ddl for them here on the forum.
They were a fan recording from MKB's concert.

Where do these types of concert photos come from? I didn't think they were UFA Official photos because they don't have the copyright on them, but they're definitely professional. Are they sold at the concerts? Are they "official UFA but we're too lazy to stick the copyright thing on since we just took them yesterday" photos? Anybody know?

thanks reyfer, for the answers to my questions.

what interests me the most is that there is a Taiwan FC... can they join the FC events held in Japan?

and just another question... does anyone know by any chance the number of Official FC members in both countries?

I have a question
What was this "Drama" that happened when Heike left H!P?

I'd also like to know what that was all about. I've only heard vague mumblings about it, something about Heike Michiyo not liking her later songs/wanting to write her own music or something...there's nothing on theppn wiki about it, just that she left in 2002. No mention of this on the Japanese Wikipedia either. I was an H!P fan back when she left, but was not very well-steeped in H!Plore and paid more attention to Morning Musume than to other H!P artists back then. There also wasn't a lot of up-to-date English-language info about H!P back then and I hadn't really discovered JPM yet at that time (I think JPM's H!P forum is the oldest English-language H!P forum). So I didn't really pay attention when Heike Michiyo left, and only discovered her long after she'd left H!P.

I'd make some drama too if I was her, and probably much earlier as well.
