Jaeboem is the MAN. I loved how he pimped his Jessica SNSD seduction back in springtime for the Every One Idol Army show. The man is a pimp.

I love hearing them talk in english!

I didn't know JYP spoke english so well =O Should've imagined though, since the WG learned so fast, and he's been hard at work with these US debuts, so of course he would've known english

kuno_thunder · « **Reply #4 on:** July 24, 2009, 10:16:18 PM »

Since Jaeboem and Taecyeon were in the US for so long, its no surprise that they know English. As well, Nick being from Thailand, which explains his English skills. My favorite is when they take shots at Jae's Korean skills, as displayed with Nicole on SGB.

I can't believe they didn't have a thread before either

The thing about this group is that they are really talented and hot but I only like 3 out of the 7 members personality-wise so I'm gonna ramble on a little about each of them xD

First we have leader Jaebeom, the guy with the whole package, he sure can dance and sing, he's entertaining on shows, speaks English and he has THE BODY, in short he's imo one of a kind in the industry. The only thing that might make him not completely flawless is that he's a bit short but nothing too obvious. I'd like to see a dance/singing battle between Taeyang and him someday.

Then we have Junsu, the main vocal, don't have much to say about him, I don't really know why I don't like him other than I find that licking his lips sticking his whole tongue out pretty nasty, but he's a great singer.

Nickhun, the cute one, he seems like a really sweet guy, but I bet/hope he's a bit tougher in real life xD

Taecyeon, I just love him, he always makes me crack up and even though he might not have a "perfect face" he's still really handsome and hot

Wooyoung, he seems pretty balanced in his skills but I don't know why I get the feeling he's a bit slimy.

Junho, great vocals too, I liked him a lot at first cause he seemed like a shy humble guy, but when I saw his It's time 2PM interview I got the feeling he was kind of conceited.

Chansung, he's my WTF-member(the member whom you find not worth his popularity and therefore makes you go WTF), I'm sorry but I just don't see how this guy is one of the most popular ones, but I didn't know he was in a popular sitcom before he debuted so that might be it.

Sorry for being bitchy, just had to express this somehow xD

It becomes boring fast, doesn't it?

I like to look at Nichkhun, but other than that, I'm finding it not very entertaining...

kuno_thunder · « **Reply #8 on:** August 02, 2009, 06:44:00 AM »

Apparently girls are going crazy over this show, but imho Episode 2 was more fael than Ep 1. YGTV and Hello Baby are FAR more entertaining!

Rei-chan · « **Reply #9 on:** August 02, 2009, 10:18:51 AM »

I agree lol Also, the personalities of some of the boys are sort of annoying... Like, it feels that some are really cocky. I still enjoy Nichkhun's parts though, he's sweet <3

kuno_thunder · « **Reply #10 on:** August 07, 2009, 10:19:02 PM »

Ok, just to wrap up the stuff from week 2, but the stuff they started at the end of this one looks awesome! Wild Bunny gonna get better!

Hottest's should add Junho to their twitter if they have one~ That boy totally went on a posting spree today

I think he might use it often like WG does since he wants to improve his English~

He's so cute in hist posts too~:heart:

Nichkhun has been chosen as a goodwill ambassador of Thailand and this music video was released for the campaign song of The Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT). The song is titled "Let's take a break":

I think I have a mancrush on Nichkhun. After he did that water dance thing with Yoona, I keep thinking "this dude is a pimp."

Oh, we didn't have a 2PM thread before?

They used to be just eyecandies for me with their first single. To me, they were just these boys with nice abs doing flip-flps around the stage but couldn't sing. But with the 2nd single, they've improved a whole lot. I actually enjoyed their perfs (I Hate You much more so than A&A coz of the hideous outfits). They can be pretty entertaining too.

Unlike most Thais who know him, Khun is not my fav

. It's Taec

then Junho.

Flip Flops. HEY! That's very important.

i was gonna get my hair shaved like jaebum except with "JPHiP" and "AX" but stupid place weren't qualified!

Rei-chan · « **Reply #16 on:** August 17, 2009, 02:57:47 AM »

^ That'd be cool

Ep 3 of Wild Bunnies is funny. It's interesting how these guys seem less inhibited about what they talk about than other groups

Their perviness, the gayness, etc... I hope they dont go back to boring like ep 2 haha

Odango · « **Reply #17 on:** August 22, 2009, 05:40:21 PM »

Jaebum knew my birthday was coming and decided he was going to be nice and give me a little Birthday gift~ It comes as the September Issue of Bazaar magazine~

I want to poke his tummy~.... and his chest.... and touch his arms

But that's it~ ^^
