Three, to be exact.

After the first episode came out I've begun to get the feeling that HF is pulling a page out of YG's playbook at we are going to get a comeback at the end of the reality show. With the show being 11 episodes long that would put the last episode on the first Wednesday in August, 6 months after the D:RtU comeback. And since they said that they were aiming for 3 comebacks this year I can't imagine one any later than that if they want to fit in another before the end of the year. What do you guys think?

Have at it you cretins

Like instant ramen or that cheese spray, anything that a home alone teenager would eat

First off they doxed some poor son of a bitch, harassed the shit out him, and drove him to suicide. They spend like 30 seconds on it, "oh yeah this guy had depression, so anyway back to our show". Like wtf?

Secondly it seemed they all had a sick sense of fascination with this dumb fuck. The way they talked about it every time they got a new video from him was like how drug addicts talk about scoring a drug. Seriously.

And he was clearly LOVING the attention that they lavished on him. What a fucking loser he was. And the docu makers kept spamming his name over and over and over and over, and spamming his pic over and over and over. Giving him precisely what he craved - fame and notoriety. They literally helped make his dreams come true.

And in the end all their hundreds and hundreds of hours spent investigating did what? Nothing. Not a damn thing. Interpol put out a red notice, the cafe owner dude spotted him and turned him in. Done. They contributed nothing to his arrest at all.

Listen if you liked it fine. But I think all this did was make this fuck face famous just like he wanted to be. I read so many raving reviews for this show and honestly thought it was terrible

Title about says it all. When I tune in to watch someone cook, I don’t want drama, secret loves, or any of that bullshit. I want to watch someone cook. It’s relaxing to have in the background or to cook along to. The second big corporations tried to cash in on the reality tv buzz is when cooking shows died for me.

We received your pitches for LOONA's upcoming comeback and have listed all of them below for you to vote on! But first...

Reality Show Update

There was overwhelming support to go ahead and accept the deal, so our team will meet with the network today and iron out the details. As we said, this will delay the comeback a bit but we trust your judgment. The concerns of the three members will come up in the negotiations and we will try to find a solution that puts them first, even if it means we will have to deal with more backlash from reduced screen-time.

The three members who voiced their concerns would like to let the fan owners know that they accept their decision but they were a bit surprised and disappointed at how little it seemed their concerns mattered to you all since 2/3rds of the fan owners voted yes. They hope you will be more considerate in the future.

If there is anything you want to say to those three members, please do so below and we will relay the message as soon as possible.

In order to keep the fans updated with how the members are feeling. We will check in on them and provide a quick grade on the group morale, which you can find below. We also are keeping tabs on social media, though that grade might not be as pretty... but I'm sure we can improve it soon.

Concept Pitches

Concept 1:

>With Red Velvet MIA the kpop world sorely needs new "Queens of Summer." Brave Girls may be on their way to that with their resurgence and upcoming comeback but for now we'll assume that throne remains empty.
>
>We're going to have LOONA channel the bubbly and bright electro-pop energy from Hi High and deliver a refreshing summer bop a la "Red Flavor." Hi High, Butterfly, So What, and Why Not have shown all different sides of LOONA but I think "refreshing" is the one they haven't really tackled yet. So... Why Not show they can absolutely pull that off too?
>
>We'll film much of the MV at Cabo San Lucas' "El Arco."
>
>Outfits for the MV would be a mix of some similar to these OEC outfits with jean shorts, shorts, and t-shirts as well as outfits similar to their [LOONA island](https://cf.shopee.ph/file/9172c49c9d9721eb02b619398d

I'm not sure if it's wise for me to mention the name of the show, so I'm just gonna leave out that detail to avoid trouble. But the point of the show is basically to send couples to an island resort where all of them will have an opportunity to mingle with attractive single people and see if their relationship is strong enough to withstand "temptation". Based on what I've seen in some of the previous episodes, many of the partners end up sleeping with the singles and ruining their relationships.

I told my gf how uncomfortable I was with the idea of us "testing" our relationship on a public platform, but she argued that we will not be the couple that decides to fuck the first available hot person on the island. I jokingly asked "but what about the 2nd available hot person, or 3rd or 4th or 5th?". She encouraged me to think of it as a once in a lifetime experience before she reached into my pants and made me promise to trust her as much as she trusted me. We had sex and filed our conversation under "to be continued".

It's not that I don't trust my gf or myself around good looking people, but I'm just concerned that the show will go above and beyond to create situations that will manipulate us to act impulsively. It's an island paradise with romantic scenery, lots of horny young people walking around in swim shorts and bikinis, plenty of alcohol and "let's get to know each other" vibes.

I can see how night after night of that shit could increase sexual chemistry between strangers and lead to hook ups. Question: am I being an insecure guy or does this sound like an obviously terrible idea?

In the segment, and what I've read elsewhere, the book explains data - national and across 13 major cities - show blacks are not disproportionately arrested by police based upon surveys in which the victim identified their attacker's race - blacks are actually under-represented in arrests based upon this control.

Murray argues IQ testing predicts achievement for whites and blacks equally - blacks and whites with 130 IQ (2 standard deviations from the white mean IQ) have about equal life outcomes in society.

He goes on to state we should pursue race neutral policies since these are fairest for all, and policy makers short shrift society if less competent students are made medical doctors and teachers because IQ predicts job performance as it does virtually everything else.

Murray mentions that group averages differ in IQ, and this most likely explains some of the group differences in everything from crime, health, education and job performance. Failing to recognize IQ is causal to some portion of group differences is failing to recognize a root cause, and falsely attributing it onto systemic racism which will not only fail to close the group gaps but will alienate whites and promote white identitarianism.

Lastly, as to whether the IQ gaps are genetic or environmental Murray said on the show that even after improving environment for blacks relative whites the ADULT black-white IQ gap has not closed in 50 years. Murray also discussed IQ testing show Ashkenazi, Northeast Asians, and some south Asian (eg., Brahmin caste) have consistently higher IQ than white Europeans.

Context: Felix is a Captain and Tetrarch of the Ultramarines, and is going poking around the Pharos with Cawl and company to unlock vaguely defined secrets. In doing so, he comes across what I can only call a bit of Necron tech that shows alternate realities.

> Felix looked into the stone. Ghost lights congregated where he watched, pulling his attention closer. Under his gaze, the lights coalesced, becoming shapes that he almost recognised. He reached out a hand. The shining rock rippled. > >‘Tetrarch!’ Cominus’ vox snapped Felix’s attention away. His fist clenched. The lights were gone, the rock still. > >Cominus was advancing on an aperture five feet high, set in the side of the cave with the base at about waist height. Its oval encompassed blackness, and so it appeared a tunnel, but when Cominus’ light shone through, it glanced off farwalls. There was a second cavern on the far side. > >‘I saw lights,’ he said. He had his gun ready. > >Ixen and Daelus flanked Cominus. They approached the gap from the sides, then Cominus flung himself in front of it. > >Light flashed from the other side. > >‘There’s someone there!’ Cominus shouted. ‘Adeptus Astartes! Hold fire!’ > >Lights flashed in and out of the cave. Then Cominus’ gun wavered; he peered forwards, and stepped back, his aim renewed. > >‘By the Emperor,’ he whispered. > >Felix pushed forwards to stand by his sergeant. > >On the far side of the hole he saw Cominus, Daelus and Ixen staring back. The doppelgangers were inverted, standing on the ceiling. Past the tops of their heads Felix saw another Cawl working xenos drones to clear ferrocrete, and other Space Marines drawing near to look. > >‘Stand down!’ Cominus said to them. > >The other Cominus was doing the same, their guns pointed directly at each other. Felix saw his counterpart reach up a restraining hand as he did so himself. > >‘It’s us,’ said Felix. ‘Don’t shoot.’ > >‘It’s a xenos trick,’ snarled Cominus. > >‘I am ordering you to stand down,’ said Felix. He looked to his men. ‘All of you.’ > >Reluctantly, Cominus put up his gun. The other Cominus did so a fraction of a second later. > >‘Astounding,’ said Daelus. ‘What is it?’ > >‘Come away,’ said Alpha Primus. He joined them. ‘Do not look.’ > >‘Is it an image?’ said Daelus. ‘Is it a trick?’ > >Felix noted then that there was no Alpha Primus on the far side. He peered around

It is usual for Kpop groups or soloists to promote on variety shows and music shows as part of their promotion schedule for a new album or song.

But this April, because he released his first mini album since he set up his own one-man agency Ten2 Entertainment some months ago, Hwang Chi Yeul embarked on an unusually hectic promotion schedule. Hence I started a thread about this, and I hope the mods here will kindly allow it to remain (if even for a short time), thanks in advance.

HCY has gone on about fifteen variety/music/Youtube shows to promote "Two Letters" (title track of his new album "Be My Reason"). Among the shows that stood out for me:

MBC News Today - a live news programme in the early morning of 2 Apr, where he was interviewed for 7 minutes and sang for about 45 seconds :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=craxvclsSGk&t=8s

From 02:00 singing acappella

Comedy Big League on tvN - wire segment where he sang while hanging up in the air!

The BTS is funnier than the actual segment aired :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXnFxt89Bss

Kim Gye Ran's New Journey on Youtube - KGR would not allow HCY to promote his new song until he could squat and lift 100 kg!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCdyqUcbiJY&t=15s

05:37 (this video is uploaded on HCY's own YT channel, on KGR's YT channel there is a video as well)

HCY met fitness Youtuber GPT and they took part in a Pilates challenge (the first time either of them have tried Pilates). In this video HCY isn't shown to have sung his new song but we are given to understand that he did indeed sing .. otherwise why go and do Pilates (ouch)? Another video will be uploaded later :)

Edited - Eng subs now available!

01:48 the Pilates challenge starts

For the record here are the other shows HCY has gone on:

I Can See Your Voice on Mnet/tvN - S8 Ep 10 - How kind it was of ICSYV team to schedule the airing of the broadcast in South Korea on the very day HCY's new album was released. He is truly the son of ICSYV!

Love Call Centre on TVChosun - aired the day before the album was released, and no one believed HCY when he said he didn't appe

Hey again! Wanted to give you guys an update on things.

Reality Show Update

So, we struck a deal for the reality show. We made it known that there were three members who were not as comfortable with the idea and the network said it was fine. They suggested giving some of their time to Chuu but we also suggested highlighting the lesser known members. We met in the middle and it was a very friendly meeting. The show will start to air soon after the first comeback stage.

Member Creative Freedom

As you know, the members have been practicing hard for a while to hone their skills in things like music composition and choreography. They are eager to get a chance to show it off in this comeback, though we are not sure how to go about it. We personally think that we should ease them into these creative roles, while still leaving the long-time professionals in charge of the most important stuff.

I'm sure you are well aware of the members' capabilities, so we wanted to get some pitches for who you think should do what. Do you want a certain member to compose a song, or maybe have a song written by the group? Maybe someone could choreograph a b-side song? We're all ears, please let us know below!
