Opinion Piece: The Pros and Cons of a Playgirlz/Boyz

*NOT MINE but I totally agree with this and I can relate myself with JungAh*

PLAYGIRLZsome say they are the most silent fandom
some say they are the most civilized one
some say they are the friendliest
and some say they are the most approachable.

It’s quite flattering to read/hear those comments towards Playgirlz…
but what is a ‘Playgirlz’ to a Playgirlz’s points of view?

A Playgirlz says to me that we are “the strongest emotional fandom” which I strongly agree. Playgirlz is one, if not most, emotionally battered fandom.

After School: the reason behind Playgirlz’s existence and vice-versa.

Everyone knows that After School has this unique admission and graduation system. A system that is hard to accept but has to be.

Debuted on January 2009, After School has graduated 3 students and admitted 5 students since then. 5 times the happiness, 3 times the sadness. But those 3 times is a lot, especially the last two. It almost breaks us. Almost. But it didn’t. It makes us stronger.

I must say Playgirlz/Boyz lives in fear and anticipation. Fear that one member will suddenly graduate anytime and anticipation for future members.

Playgirlz are frustrated. Frustrated for the fact that, admit it or not, After School is still underrated.

It’s usual for us, Playgirlz, to hear/read praises towards them because of their unique concepts and awesome stage performances but that’s just it.

We actually didn’t care anymore whether they’ll win an award or not because we’re aware of the fact that Korean music charts are manipulated by big entertainment agencies.

But we sure love it if they’ll win an award they deserve, that’s why B.O.Y era is the most glorious era for us.

Playgirlz also has this love-hate relationship with Pledis.

Playgirlz sure loves Pledis for giving us these talented girls, but hates it (Pledis) too for giving After School such system.

Graduation might be the cruelest concept but we should know that through this concept, our bias group will live longer… longer than the most famous group there is.

Technically, the average life span of a group is 5 years. Just 5 freaking short year, but we must not need to worry about that.

With the admission and graduation system, it gives us a relief than even after the original members graduated, even after they got married and have a kid and even after us, Playgirlz, move on and leave our fangirl/fanboy life, we’ll still see a girl group named AFTERSCHOOL performing on stage, strutting their stuff and showing off their talents.

But then again, a mere system isn’t enough; there should be solidarity within the group. It’s essential. And again, we should not worry about that.

After School consist of girls with different age and personality, but that does not hinder them from having this close family ties relationship.

Never did we saw, even once, a wall between them. It may still look/feel awkward for newly added members to blend in and adapt at first, but the older unnies made sure they won’t feel any awkwardness or the feeling of being an outcast, and the best example of this is Uie.

Uie is known for being the strictest member next to Kahi, but that doesn’t mean she isn’t approachable cuz in fact, she’s the one who guides Eyoung and Kaeun when they first joined the group. Being the bigger unni, she did everything for those girls to feel that they belong and that they’re family.

Also, one strong advantage this group has is that they have a strong foundation, foundation that Kahi herself created. Kahi may not be in the group anymore but that doesn’t mean that she stops looking out for her babies. After School is her life. She builds it as if she builds a home for her family, strong and solid.

Another thing is that they got strong adviser and peace maker, JungAh. JungAh may not be the strongest/biggest person in the group but her presence alone calms the younger member. Make them feel safe.

Each member has a different personality which is essential in this group. they may be girls with different personality but together, they’re so right.

I know these girls won’t stay forever in After School but I’m pretty sure they’ll pass this legacy to the future AS members.

Having the chance to see your bias groups even after 10-20 years have passed…

I’ll conclude that Playgirlz and Playboyz are the most blessed fandom.

All About After School : Jungah's Hairstyle

I was browsing afterschooldaze@wordpress 2 days ago when I realized something.
Jungah is sporting a new hairdo. She has bangs now.

During live perf at Green Grove Festival 20120722

There is one thing for sure, I HATE it. She looks like ahjumma (makcik/aunty). What was she thinking? *or what was her hairstylist thinking?* @__@

I'm sure most us Jung-Ah eonnie's fans will agree. Judge it yourself.

Here is a compilation of her past hairstyles with bangs/fringes on. :(

The biggest picture is the latest one. She looks older than she supposed to be.

Here is the compilation of her past hairstyles that I think suits her extremely well.

Long, short, brunette or blonde, she rocks them all without the ahjumma-looking fringes. She looks like a sexy angel *Is that a sin?Saying sexy and angel in one sentences? ;p* She looks mature (not in ahjumma ways), drop dead gorgeous and serene. Those hairstyles enhance all her beauty features.

I think she also looks great with a side-swept bangs. Depends on the main hairstyle.

The most disastrous hairstyle

Haish! If she is my biological sister, I might considered sueing the hairstylist and giving a lecture to her myself as well for agreeing to this style!! Thank God she is blesses with beauty, if not, even Quasimodo from The Hunchback of Notredame looks better!! :(

After School’s Jung Ah once dated a man 7 years her junior

It turns out After School‘s Jung Ah is into younger men.

On the July 17th broadcast of SBS ‘Strong Heart‘, After School member Jung Ah revealed her ideal type. “I have a lot of younger dongsengs around me, so I would like a dependable younger man for a boyfriend,” she said.

Fellow group member Lizzy who calmly listened to Jung Ah explain her ideal type then suddenly blurted, “She is an expert when it comes to younger men!”

Despite looking a bit taken aback by Lizzy’s remark, the 29 year old Jung Ah admitted that she once even received a love confession from a young 19 year old.

She then revealed, “I once dated a guy 7 years younger than me,” shocking everyone on set. “As long as he is not a minor, I am open to dating a younger man.”

Homaigod Jjung-eonnie!!! It is unexpected from you! I never see this 'side' of you..

Then again, it was not all-round shocking if young men confess their loves to her. She's perfect. She's beautiful, serene, soft yet so sexy and strong. Even I'm, a girl, going ga ga ,obsess and fan-girling all over her. Let alone the opposite sex. Young or older than Jjung-eonnie, I don't mind as long as she is HAPPY. :)

To commemorate this shocking fact, let us ogle the many sides of beautiful Jung Ah-eonnie

Jungah The Goddess

Beautiful Jungah

Even UEE wants to hug her ;p

Sexy Jungah

Cute & Dorky Jungah

Finally, Jungah The Omma

Yes yes yes..I know this is too much..But I can't just get enough of her. Anymore pics, I might as well open up a blog ONLY for Jungah..Hahaha..

My Kpop Bias (Female Group)

This is a counter-attack post to Vee..

This is war vee..Waaaaar!! *ehem enough drama*
Hahahahaha...

In conjunction with my previous post on my K-pop bias (Male Group), I'm sharing with you all, my female Kpop bias, namely the female group.

But since I'm not really much of a fan of female Kpop groups, I will also stated  my mini-bias on other groups that I always keep track at each comeback..

Real & True Bias

After School-Jungah

My close friends are aware of it. I'm kind of going crazy over her..

I keep track on her updates..

Downloading her latest picture..

I've started falling head over heels with Jungah when I saw her in Ah! clip.

I feel in love with her soft features and yet so sexy..

And I really like her voice..

Hmm..now thinking hard how to avoid Jungah being 'kidnap' by Vee..Hahaha..

Nine Muses-Hyun A

Yesss..I really like them..Surprise huh? Like AS, they also have the sexy and mature aura that I really like. Actually, I was kinda horrified at their debut track 'No Playboy'..I never give a damn about them until they came back with 'News'..There everything began..I set my gaze upon new member, Hyuna. I was mesmerized by her beauty..

And she's crazy despite her looks. Just like Lizzy After School. Actually, every single member is gorgeous. Just like After School (again). Kinda hard to choose a bias. But I settled on my love-at-first-sight momentos..hahaha..

Mini-bias

Miss A - Fei

A really great and talented group. But I'm not really a fan. But I always have my eyes on Fei..

My heart, my eyes and my mouth keep telling me she's beautiful...

F(x) - Luna

From Chu until Electric Shock, I'm attracted to Luna because she's talented and her voice is superb. This is the first female member that I've like because of her voice. 

Kara - Gyuri

I don't really like their songs. I don't really dig their images. But i can't really peel my eyes off the leader..

With or without makeup, brunette or blond..She is just..bloody perfect..


And oh..this time, my biases are almost based on looks and hotness..Nothing much to do with talents..Hihi..I'm baaaaad~

Perfect Females

I’ve wrote about perfect males, now as an beauty’s appreciator, I should write about my perfect females… All these celebs I listed is based on my awed-at-first-sight experiences..

-_________-

Sigh, again..Nooo...I don't have any latent homosexual tendencies...

I dream of kissing Lee Min Ho, not Megan Fox *euwwww*

I truly admire beautiful girls slash women…This is totally based on look through MY point of view..

One Malaysian celebrity that I think is beautiful is Ummi Nazeera...

From Nur Kasih..She played the look-as-sweet-as-candy evil sister Sarah*thanks to my mom, I have to watch the show with her*

To me, she has authentic Malay look..I’m not a fan of Pan-Asians’ look…No offense to all Pan-Asians..

Then, another girl is Megan Fox…

When I first saw her in Transformer, I went like ‘meowww'..she’s super hot..I can totally understands why most of the boys slash men go gaga over her..Dark hair, bluest eyes..She’s perfect..But when I saw her picture sans make-up, I’m quite repulsed..huhu..

Park Gahee

Without heavy make-up

No need to explain further with all the brushes in sight..not much different eh?? still beautiful as ever

Like in my previous post, as I admired her beautiful body, I also admire her beautiful face…With dimples, she’s one of a kind..With or without make-up, she’s rock!!

Kim Jungah

I also went gaga over her when I first saw her in AS’s music video Ah! In Bang!, her bowl-cut hair really made her appeared older, definitely doing nothing for her, thus I didn’t notice her at all *only noticed during her famous bang bang bang’s dance moves* She has a very soft and serene facial features, motherly yet gorgeous face, making you feel calm just by looking at her face..She's my favorite AS's member!!

Park Gyuri

Have no qualms when people call her goddess.. :)

Even though I’m not her fan, but I still think she is utterly gorgeous with or without makeup…

How about you guys??
