Korean Boyband R-eaL wants to be like Arashi (Eh?)

4 06 2008


R-eaL consists of Yoon (25), Jin Woong (20), Chang Hyun (20), Insuk (20), Sang Il (18). They are determined to become the “real” of Kpop. Praised for its cute dance choreography, their title song ‘Make Love’ was produced by a popular Japanese composer Hirota Shoauichiro. The MV was directed by Hong Jong Ho.

Eh? Read more on: http://spiderliliez.livejournal.com/56443.html

I started my feeds update with loads of posts about this new group R-eaL (what a dumb name, really! [pun intended]), and I totally skipped them all. Until I read about the headline that they want to be like Arashi. Now, that caught me.

For one, I don’t like boybands ALOT. Arashi as a boyband, didn’t strike me at first, until I saw the silly PVs. But never mind, this is about R-eaL. I hate typing their name.

R-eaL wants to be different in a way that they wanted to be the most real Kpop group ever – by coming up with a debut single that has a J-POP feel. It’s a song that shows their style best. How Korean was that?

I don’t know about them although they said they a lot of fans in the Phillipines, Thailand, and Japan. I don’t know if they look good (pictures are blurry) or they have talents (what? you want me to post a youtube link? no way)

I don’t know how real R-eaL (this will be the last time I hope I’ll type like this) could be but I don’t think misspelling the "meaning" of your group’s name shows your sincerest intention to be the truest idol in the history of Kpop. Unless of course I’m so dumb that I believe that’s how I should spell it because I text-message a lot.

What? I’m already their hater? And please, don’t use the name of Arashi to gain popularity fast, because you’ll also fade fast! Faster than you thought.

I know it’s bad to judge them even without listening to them first but I hope before they blab about this interview they released their single first. How am I supposed to judge them? If I’m ever judging them, it’s by this interview, nothing more.

AND NO, IF YOU’LL READ THE LINK ABOVE, THEY WANTED TO BE LIKE ARASHI. And I hate that they used Arashi’s name.

I don’t care if they’re really talented, it’s their attitude. But then, this attitude in this interview, I don’t like it.

I’m not offended at all, your comment is welcomed.

i just finished reading the interview….^^
they’re a little conceded..no offense to them. {eheh!}

i dont know, i think they say that meaning they admire Arashi and look up to them as seniors, but thats just my opinion..^^
i dont know arashi too well, so yeah, we’ll have to see how they debut…^^

they’re new, they want to make a name, they acknowledged Arashi as someone they look up to. why can’t I just let it as simple as that eh? maybe it’s just because.. it’s Arashi.

well, good luck with their career. I don’t hate them personally or wish that they’ll fade fast in the showbiz industry though.

Isn’t it nice to see Arashi respected?
Why are you so angry?
I’m happy that they said Arashi is an ideal and respected group..something to aspire to… So, chill! ^_^

I heard that they look up to arashi,
and that they want the fans to get
to know them before they debut,

I’m not sure if it’s true >__<
I like R-eaL but thats my opinion,

hi Michiyo, I haven’t heard from them again if they debuted or not yet, but I don’t dislike them anymore as before… I’m actually waiting for them to prove theirselves coz that’s what they really should do.. and they’re lucky to have you as a fan I guess. Peace out!
