i understand people miss the box style packaging and are hating on the binding/quality of the packaging of rockstar but why do some people follow it up with their favorite packaging being oddinary and why is it always newer stays within the last year like at least name one of their other 2 box style albums oddinary screams graphic design is my passion

#i have no where else to post this and it needs to be said oddinary graphically is one of their worst albums #yes it's a nice quality box but inlife i think is their best design with their box albums then golive #also storing wise box albums take up SO much space along with producing more waste and using more materials to make the #i wish they would go back to their cle series packaging with larger/think photobooks #and maybe have an envelope for all the goodies to prevent theft of inclusions #i feel like it's a good middle of what people want #i do like how easy it is to take apart rockstar though cause it makes it easier to breakdown for collages #without killing my fingertips #if anyone wishes to add on to this feel free i'll probs keep this tab open while i work late on this gift for my grandma

no honestly... the early nightmare series albums were so pretty. why didn't they stay with this concept? l**na had literally white albums with a since photo on the cover for over 20 albums, and they were so imminstantly recognizable that people started making "l**na album edits" of other idols/groups. deukae had started out with similarly recognizable album designs -- only much more detailed and beautiful -- only to change their designer, add a plastic sleeve, no, remove the plastic sleeve, add it again, release a thick limited version in the middle of a trilogy, make the albums square instead of rectangular, and now this. it's just... so disappointing? i feel like either the designers don't think or aren't allowed to think of albums as a whole series you have to put on your shelf... literally how did we get from this to this

#even if the change of a designer was something they couldn't control they could still make it work... the 'what' album had some interesting #design choices going on inside the photobook and the 'piri' album had the cover designs... we could have had it all ://#and the fact that they just Don't Think about the albums as a whole is. eugh. TWO full albums. both are brown. come on #shrimp thoughts

Let's talk about Taemin and Key of SHINee wearing the Scottish fashion house Charles Jeffrey Loverboy, an openly queer unisex brand. There’s a lot of talk about whether idols know who they are wearing and, when relevant, do they understand the meaning of what they are wearing. We know there are clear examples of artists not understanding what they’re wearing. Indeed, 23-year-old, non-English-speaking Taemin admitted in 2021 that he had no idea the fly of his pants read “Open Here” during View era. Yet, a lot has changed this 2015/16. Taemin’s English is quite proficient. And what about Key, who has studied English since he was a child? I think we can consider understanding the words and understanding the context or broader meaning behind words or, as the case may be, symbols, which can be universal.

Taemin in the Advice album photobook, 2021.

The Charles Jeffrey Loverboy brand is no ordinary brand. It’s a spunky, fun and edgy unisex brand with genuine British flavour. From London Fashion Week's write up:

"Looking back to look forward, the collections re-render historical references as intrinsically modern while paying respect to an ancestral line-up of costumiers, performance artists and queer icons. Jeffrey’s nightlife-influenced thirst for experimentation, and belief in the validity of mistakes, result in a colourful tension between control and chaos.

"LOVERBOY’s roots are fixed in London’s queer nightlife scene, having been born in 2014 as both a fashion label and a cult club night. The LOVERBOY parties, first staged while Jeffrey was studying for his Masters in fashion design at Central St Martins in London, were attended by the city’s up-and-coming artists, performers, musicians, drag queens and poets, many of whom became Jeffrey’s future muses and creative collaborators."

Live performance of Advice, 2021.

The tartan in these looks is known as the loverboy tartan. In the current collection, they have an “odorable” loverboy tartan raincoat with giant floppy bunny ears. I’m too lazy to link it, but do look it up and peruse the punk-meets-whimsy items on the website.

Taemin’s stylist for Advice was Kim Wook. You can read an interview with Kim Wook in translation here. Wook talks about he and Taemin wanting to do something impactful before Taemin entered the military, and they settled on working with silhouettes that are usually seen on female dancers. I could do a whole post on Taemin’s styling for Advice (maybe I will!), but to connect things back to the brand at hand, the flamboyantly unisex Loverboy brand seems to be at home with the goal of Advice’s styling. Advice was Taemin’s way of saying “I will go my own way and trust myself over others,” and I don’t think the androgynous or even gender-fluid looks he presented are a coincidence; Wook’s interview shows that it isn’t. These looks feel like a push forward for Taemin, and he’s been clear in saying Advice was a breakaway from his past. Act I and Act II were leading to this moment.

Taemin has been wearing Charles Jeffery Loverboy upon in return in 2023. I think the most significant choice is the non-binary shirt he wore a fan meeting during Hard era. The t-shirt is a jab at conservatives’ obsession with the love lives and indeed, bathroom usage, of LGBT+, saying, “They’re happy and satisfied. Are you?” There is a also a good-sized, unmistakable non-binary symbol on the shirt. I hadn’t seen this symbol before but it was still easy for me to comprehend. As an artist who is increasingly wearing gender-fluid outfits, it is likely a conscious choice to wear a shirt that supports non-binary rights.

Now, we can’t forget fashion-forward, English king Key in all of this. Key has always had a love and fascination with fashion; we saw in One Fine Day his interaction with a local London fashion brands. He’s a man who knows his fashion houses, so it seems unlikely he wouldn’t know about the Loverboy brand or its ethos as a unisex brand.

Key primarily wore Charles Jeffrey Loverboy accessories for his Gasoline promotions in 2022. The adorable hat with ears is statement wrapped in cuteness, that speaks to the camp motif present in both Key’s body of work and the Loverboy label’s. It’s cute, but not too cute. It’s loud but soft, and the Loverboy stamp is there for all to see. I think that Key embodies what LSF wrote about the Lovery label as “a colourful tension between control and chaos.” Key is never afraid to experiment, and he can go from creating iconic androgynous silhouettes reminiscent of ancient gods and Beyoncé to the retro-camp shown below that almost looks like it could be at home in a Ghostbusters film. Almost.

There are contexts where, like the above, it is more than reasonable to assume that the artists understand what they are wearing and that the choices made are conscious and in some cases made with the goal of the comeback in mind. And there are situations where it’s possible or even confirmed by the artist that they didn’t know what they were wearing or what it meant. I think it can become an obsession for some to want the styling to be conveying a secret code. With the case of Charles Jeffrey Loverboy, there’s no code and it’s not secret. It’s simply known and recognised by those who know, which is enough.

#hope this made sense #charles jeffrey loverboy #shinee #taemin #shinee key #lee taemin #Kim kibum #taemin styling #key shinee styling #kpop styling #queer styling #queer styling in kpop

( there’s 9 photocards in total, this is simply a preview )

⊂ ERA ✶ NOTES ⊃

se3oul’s ‘ MINE (FEAT. RM) ’ mv amassed 74.1 MILLION views within the first 24 HOURS of its release, surpassing BLACKPINK’s LISA for the ‘ MOST VIEWED mv by a SOLOIST in 24 HOURS ’

GLORY CHALLENGE !! hoseong did the glory mv dance challenge with many idols including NEW JEANS , BAMBI from 𐌄𐌵𐌍Ꝋ𐌉𐌀 , YEONJUN and TAEHYUN from TXT , JESSI , HOSHI from SEVENTEEN , LE SSERAFIM and MORE.

HOSEONG informed CASUALLY to fans on WEVERSE live that 40% of all REVENUE from his ALBUM SALES are going to GO TOWARDS charities SUPPORTING PALESTINE.

he had gotten particularly DRUNK after filming for SUCHWITA so YOONGI had decided to drop him HOME. cue a drunk HOSEONG weverse live FEATURING yoongi.

he wore a cute LION COSTUME and promoted his ALBUM by doing the CHOREO to GLORY in various PUBLIC spaces. EVERYONE simply thought he was an ORDINARY but SKILLED dancer.

HOSEONG also did a few LIVE performances in LA and NYC TIMES SQAURE with a crowd of HUNDREDS upon hundreds of people PRESENT.

for his LA appearance , ARMYs had actually PREPARED something for HOSEONG ( and BTS ) in return for his hard WORK. the STAFF were in on it as SUDDENLY ‘ love letters ’ would BEGIN playing THROUGH the speakers. EVERYONE there had sung the SONG for him. HE was the FIRST ONE to HEAR the SONG amongst the MEMBERS and he CRIED heavily.

THERE has been many DATING rumours SURROUNDING HOSEONG during this ERA because he MENTIONS his album being a MUSICAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY and it beholds a fairly ROMANTIC song + a BREAKUP song. HE has also been SEEN being CLOSE with one of his DANCERS.

he had come ACROSS comments during certain LIVES about some fans COMPLAINING that the CHOREO for MINE is too EXPLICIT especially with FEMALE dancers , and his response was “ i KEEP seeing these COMMENTS like ‘ ah, OPPA, you shouldn’t BE dancing LIKE THAT with girls. ’ i’m SORRY but am i not GROWN? if you think like that , then MAYBE reevaluate your LIFESTYLE. go OUTSIDE. ” his reaction BLEW UP on twt.

upcoming CONCERT…. or ENLISTMENT announcement? stay TUNED !

⊂ HIS ✶ STYLING ⊃

a LOT of shirts being TORN OFF too, the stylists kinda HATE him for it LMAO.

ALSO has like SIX different HAIRSTYLES he sports during this ERA alone.

RAPPER outfits…? he gives VERY rapper for his STAGES (especially with THE WAY he seems to FEEL himself, he knows HOW to PUMP UP a crowd).

💬 — HOSEONG’S TAGLIST.

‎ ‎ ⋆⠀⠀&.⠀⠀٬⠀⠀(⠀⠀CALL YOU MINE.⠀⠀)⠀...⠀is the second extended play (ep) by south korean girl group, letalis. the album was released in both digital and physical form by south korean entertainment company, apricus culture on march 18, 2014.

the album was supported by performances of the title track, "I GOT A BOY" and the promotional single, "DARLING". the group's second release received massive attention from the group's growing fanbase and garnered critical praise for their vocal improvements from their first release. commercially, call you mine debuted at number two on the gaon album chart, highlighted in a highly publicized fandom war. "I GOT A BOY" was praised critically for its eclectic production and international appeal. the single itself peaked at number three on the us world digital chart, marking their first introduction to the american market. the music video for "i got a boy" won the award for video of the year at the first youtube awards in 2013, generating the first signs of an american fanbase for the group.

in terms of critical reception, the album performed noticeably better among musical critics than their debut album. billboard columnist, evie lowe, noted that the song displayed the group's promising potential with "gleeful chaos" that "set the bar high for pop music in 2014". the group's choreography for the title track also created a small dance craze among korean adolescents and is regarded as being a continued domestic favorite. averaging a 4.5/5, the album has stood to be one of the group's most successful.

ㅤ*ㅤSECTION ONEㅤ:ㅤthe tracklist.

ʬ.ʬ.⠀001:⠀⠀ ٬⠀⠀ DARLING⠀

ʬ.ʬ.⠀002:⠀⠀٬⠀⠀ CHARMING⠀

ʬ.ʬ.⠀003:⠀⠀٬⠀⠀ I GOT A BOY * (title track)⠀

ʬ.ʬ.⠀004:⠀⠀٬⠀⠀ 좋은 날 (BETTER DAYS)

ʬ.ʬ.⠀005:⠀⠀٬⠀⠀ CLICKIN'

ʬ.ʬ.⠀006:⠀⠀٬⠀⠀ IN & OUT

ㅤ*ㅤSECTION TWOㅤ:ㅤthe physical album.

‎ ‎ ⋆⠀⠀&.⠀⠀٬⠀⠀two versions of call you mine were available upon initial release. the group would go on to re-record the title track, "i got a boy", in both english and japanese in 2014.

ʬ.ʬ.⠀ENCHANTMENT VERSION: contains one disc, one photobook (featuring 100 photos), one of four unit posters, one of seven member-written letters, one of seven random photocards, one group poster, and one of three random stickers.

ʬ.ʬ.⠀ROMANCE VERSION: contains one disc, one photobook (featuring 111 photos), one of four unit posters, one of seven member-written letters, two of seven random photocards, one of seven individual mini-poster, one of two random group posters, three stickers, and one fandom charm.

ㅤ*ㅤSECTION THREEㅤ:ㅤthe styling.

they walked around like they were the shit and at the time they really were. their styling team really invested in designer brands like obey, adidas by jeremy scott, and joyrich, to push their look between trendy and individual. each member was given a unique twist to the group look that managed to solidify the styling trends stylists would continue to stick to as a staple of the letalis branding.

ㅤ*ㅤSECTION FOURㅤ:ㅤthe notes.

this era eats in every way, i'm so serious.

a fan favorite album and title. everything about this era is solidified in letalis history books and learning every word to the songs on this album is like a vitalis prereq.

the teaser videos from this era kind of generated lore rumors which was different for apricus which is usually pretty upfront about if their groups have a universe of lore/storyline or not. letalis didn't overtly debut with one and apricus didn't address the murmurs of a storyline.

the teasers were released through 15 second member concept films. each begins with an echo of a different snippet of the track, in & out before cutting to a flashing sign with different words for each member: young, work, duty, vow, adore, loyal, and want.

fan theories kind of spun out of control only for the music video to never reference any of these themes. all of these ideas were noticed to be talked about within the songs and fans were largely pulled into the group through the discussion of these topics through the album's lyrical contents.

there's video essays left over on youtube from this era. it's kind of fun to see how far off everyone was when predicting the future lore that would come to define the group.

some of the girls allegedly may have hinted at what the teasers meant. they all deny they've ever said anything about them and actively avoid talking about lore and fan theories to this day.

intense choreo returns and somehow gets more intense?

emmy gained her first choreography credit in the description box of the uploaded music video, beginning the tradition of a member of the dance line participating in title track choreography.

they went viral amongst the general public for not just the catchy and edginess of 'i got a boy' but also for their live vocals after they sang on a radio show. melanie and sienna in particular got a lot of praise for carrying the more emotional vocals on the more technically advanced tracks.

as for the members relationships, this era was kinda smooth sailing which is probably why it's one of their most successful. they didn't argue much (publicly at least) and were all just excited to be gaining their popularity and recognition of their talent.

styling was a huge point of this era. we saw the beginnings of their individual styles being blended into their group identities.

hair also became a big deal. melanie dyed her hair its signature blonde this era with a striking honey blonde initiating the era. emmy's hair was chopped for the first time and heri gets her staple 70s big hair.

this era was also the start of their longest running youtube series: lethal doses. the series follows a different member in a vlog style of filming as they talk through their thoughts about the album, performances, and activities while being styled for the day.

the first episode in the series follows naira as the group's leader. it created the infamous fandom joke about emmy needing her bangs to hide her creases on her forehead from getting upset at rehearsals.

positions were finalized this era and melanie was officially handed the center and face positions and no one was shocked.

Taeyong is enlisting on April 15th. Fans say he should be discharged December 9th 2025. Tae will be in a military band as a singer (that gives concerts to the public, btw).

Some Taeyong's fans complained about the lack of appearences on YT and TV programmes as part of the promotion, as well as blaimed SM for not giving Tae concerts around Asia, when he has time for fanmeets and fancalls.

The usual mindless outrage with no regard to the circumstances.

Taeyong was preparing his album, dances, concert at the same time as he did 127 winter activities. He was really busy and did everything out of sheer willpower and determination. When would he had time for appearences on shows, scheduling of which depends on the other party's available time as well?

Evenso, there were 4 promotional shows (including MokChu), special dance performances (Choom, Dingo, SM) and short blitz-interviews for foreign channels. Add to it special music shows waiting room interviews, Tae being a guest MC on Inkigayo and 3 songs as the performed tracks. And the fanmeets/fancalls (can't find the schedule right now, but there were around 10).

One day fans say TikTok is enough for making a star, another day they accuse an idol company of not promoting their artist well enough, heh.

As for the lack of concerts. 1) Tae needs a physical break before the boot camp, 2) preparation post-enlistment solo content (he mentioned during a fancall) and probably 127 album (Woo spoiled it is coming), 3) interviews with the military, maybe some final health checks and signing of documentation, 4) spending time with family and members.

Speaking of the members. Doyoung will send his bff off and start his solo debut. They keep missing each other's milestones this way. Well, maybe Do will be relieved, actually, lol. He doesn't like to do smth he is new at under the scrutinity of his friends.

Finally, not enough albums printed in time. It happens with SM. No, I don't believe it was intentional. An album includes a lot of small things that are made by different companies. There are many chokepoints that can slow down the production. And an album is put together manually, people who insert pocas inside the photobook can't work as fast as a printing press. Considering everything is done last minute in SM, it is of no surprise that deadlines were not met.

I was approached by a publishing company in October, they wanted a book to be illustrated by April. It's almost the initial deadline, and not a single illustration has been completed. And no, it's not my fault. The staff was naive and didn't believe me when I told they will have problems with the author and designing the final layouts on their side.

#taeyong is the boss #food all around chips all around
