This is me, in RANT MODE....

...

Definitely...

or Not..?



A few days ago, I blogged about Kyu's 1st Solo mini album. I mentioned about how totally hooked I was. That was an understatement. The truth was, I was deliriously happy and excited about it.

Those pics were so yummy, it made my lunch extra special. Ahhhh those pics with curry YUMMY, those pics with rice DELICIOUSO.

He really . Realistically speaking, how can anyone not be with teaser of handsome Kyu, especially if he is donning a brooding and dark persona...?

Kekekeke 

I am easy that way. Give me something dark and mysterious and I am totally so SOLD. Ding ding ding ding...

So give me KYU in that dark and mysterious way, and I easily turn to HONEY with extra extra sugar and cherries on top! 

Anyway, after those teaser pics were released, along with some info about his album release. I found myself checking every hour for any news about his album. I couldn't help but stalk all SS501 blog sites for more news. I was literally like a ecstatic monkey in a shaggadelic looney mess.

And on September 19, I was literally chucked up when I saw some news about Kyu's concept photos, I was beside my self with excitement. I was literally clicking away to see the newly released photos... and I saw these:

I did a double take.. then a triple take.. and the fouth look, then 5th...and maybe a couple more looking, I did some rubbing of eyes, back to staring again, turn to blinking of eyes more and lastly sighing. My eyes really wasn't deceiving me. The pics were REALLY of Kyu in super white complexion, with pearls, with thick guy liner and with a dress. 

*sigh*

*sigh*

*sigh*

I was first in denial, then I was confused, then full on buffled mode, and I just didn't understand.

B2M explained that the pics would show how Kyu “undergo a dramatic transformation that will show fans a side of Kyu Jong that they’ve never seen before.”

I know almost all fans were saying, "ahh handsome, oh he looks pretty, oohhh gorgeous.." all the usual compliments crap. But as for me? I just didn't get it. How can they turn KYU, so gay? No offense to anyone, but I just didn't get why they made KYU look like a drag queen?

Okay maybe, I understand a little. It's a strategy thing. you know like the saying: "there is no such thing as bad publicity" or "the more the drama, the more the talk..". its all the etc, etc, etc publicity crap. 

But come on people! Those pics were really gaying, Kyu up. I didn't like it then and I still don't like it now. All I saw was a pretty girl and that really don't . Where was the Dark and brooding man? Where is my Kyu? where is He? 

Suffice to say, blogging about those set of pics was really not an option. I knew that if I did blog about it. It would have turned into a long winded tirade and rant, just like now, or more had I blogged about it.

Then a few days after that, another set of pics were released:

If the first set of pics consfused and buffled me, this next set of pics just worried me. I won't go through the tale of all my self battle about these pics but let's just say it was really really worrying me. My situation then was, hhmmnnn, well its comparable to the timess of president Roosevelt before pearl harbor.

Anyway on September 25, the MV teaser was released:

 

 

After watching that teaser. I was relieved. A little. the teaser was short but I was happy. No white make up and no pearls. It was just KYU in his Hotness glory. But still it was just 35 seconds, there was still a possibility that the white make-up and pearls will make it's appearance when the full MV will be released.

Then the 3rd concept photos were revealed:

    

My dark, mysterious and brooding man was back again!!!

Okay it was 2 on 2. It was even, a tie. My opponent already 2 punched 2 solid blows on my Ego but I my ego also had some 2 solid back flips to even the score.

I was getting more anxious but was also getting excited. I definitely want him all dark and Hot. I mean who wouldn't?

KYU.

HOT.

DARK.

HANDSOME.

SINGING.

DANCING.

WITH a GIRL.

MV.

TEASER.

BROODING.

GORGEOUS.

MYSTERIOUS

I LOVE IT.

So, what more can I ask?

The Full MV, of Course!!!

And today I got my wish:

 

 

When I saw it, I loved it. Finally the circle was complete. JungMin, HyungJun, YoungSaeng, HyunJoong and KyuJong. all my boys were now definitely walking in the path of individual progress. 

I know that most fans want them together, but personally I like it that each has a thing that they are doing on their own right now. They are working for their personal growth. I highly approve.

I think they each need to grow and learn and experience somethings on their own before they could come back together and come back stronger, as SS501.

Anyway back to the MV, I loved it. I listened to it for a couple of minutes. I love it. I smile naturally became plastered in my face.  I watched it a couple more times. I loved it. He was just so handsome. the taking the jacket of was drool worthy. I hope he does it on stage without a shirt on. 

I listened to it for an hour, and I wonder "Young saeng...... This song... this song fits youngsaeng ... more?"

I watched the MV more, and I wonder, "Suspenders..? what the hell is that suspenders for? they didn't fully utilize the suspenders as props. aiiisshhhhh...."

*sigh*

*sigh*.  

*sigh*

*sigh*

OOoohhh Kyu I love you so dearly but I don't think this is THAT stellar of a comeback. I was hoping for more, for you My Kyu. *sigh*

But nevertheless I still love you.

 

 

 

And again, sorry if this post offends anyone. But all I can say to end this is: love it, hate it, we are all entitled to our own opinions.but please be civilized about posting your opinion.

I was shocked too when I saw the pearly pics. But then they released explanations regarding the photos (and the succession)... it was because they were telling a story of his heartbreak.

The dark brooding pics are gorgeous!

i was waiting for a post abt Kyu from you.

all i can say about those pics is that i agree. i know that a lot of ppl thought he was the weakest member of the group and didn't have as much appeal as everyone else (which is absurd), and i just worried his company bought into that thinking and so released the gay photos we see above. so glad there's some people out there who have enough sense to know when a star's crossed the line.

however, i absolutely loved loved loved the mv. happy about his comeback and glad he wasn't as drastic as i thought he would be. i've been watching it again and again, and each time it just gets better. those suspenders just get me every single time.

well i missed you. glad the power's back and hope there are no more typhoons.

I live your rants :3
Anyway, to be quite honest, I was also a bit worried after seeing the teaser pics. And I was still worried after the first half of the music video but it grew on me really fast.
I realise I might be biased (I definitely am seen as Kyu is one of my two ultimate biases) but I absolutely love his comeback.
But thinking back on my immediate reaction, I realise that the first impression he might give new listeners, might not be as amazing as I think it is.
Do I even make any sense?

I totally agree tho, about the song seeming a bit better fitting for youngsaeng.
Still asgsjkajagfsjkakshgaf I LOVE MY KYU THEREFORE I LOVE THIS SONG OK ok. :)
