Oddness/Weirdness

Day 2 of Guest Blogger Week is upon us and today we're talking about K-Dramas and men in aprons....  Doesn't seem like you'd be able to write a whole post about that topic, does it?  Well you would be wrong!  Funny how I kind of noticed the preponderance of men wearing aprons in k-dramas before, but after reading this I'm having a lightbulb moment.  They are EVERYWHERE!  It's a thing!  Check it out: K-Drama Trope Du Jour: Men In Aprons

SHINee 's " Everybody " album came out last night while I laid in bed, too tired after a long day to blog about it even if I wanted to.  I did make sure to do some squasping as I downloaded and listened to the album in full before I fell asleep.  Now I'm finally here with all the album art and track for your viewing and listening pleasure.  Take a look:

It's the first day of Guest Blogger Week on Oddness/Weirdness and, like last time, I want to start out with a bang.  This post is from Moni , writer and owner of the blog Frock Yeah , and it's about something near and dear to my heart: Kpop fashion.  Enjoy! Swag Check, Mic Check: How Fashion Keeps Your Oppas and Unnies at the Top I’ve heard lots of stories about how people got into k-pop: learning about Korean music through Gangnam Style , flipping through the international TV channels at 4 am, even *cough* someone forwarding a video of Taeyang humping the stage in all white *cough* Full disclosure: that last one is definitely what happened to me, but it’s not why I jumped feet first into the fandom and stayed. Actually, it was the styling that got me. After drooling over Taeyang, I happened to see Girls’ Generation ’s video for “ Gee ”. I’m not usually a fan of music that leans on the cutesier side, but I could not stop watching this music video

It's about to be Guest Blogger Week again on Oddness/Weirdness from October 14-19!  If you're not quite sure what that is, I am here to tell you that it is pretty self explanatory.  Guest Blogger Week is where I plead with  ask some of my writer/blogger friends if they'd like to write a post for the blog and they kindly say yes and then I'm like, "Score!", because they're awesome.  So get your bodies ready, gird your loins, grab some popcorn, etc., because it's going to be a good week.

SHINee has finally dropped their mv for " Everybody " and made their first music show appearance today on MNET's M! Countdown .  Normally I open a post like this with the oft used phrase "SHINee's Back!" and appropriate fangirling but I'm only half feeling their "Everybody" comeback.  Dammit!  I wanted so wanted to love it, but I can't.  I'm going to be completely honest here, because that's what I do on this blog, so brace yourselves:

I haven't been able to pay as much attention to Block B 's comeback as I would like but I had to post this because it is so full of win:   Seven Seasons has released an epic new version of Block B's " Very Good " mv  and there's even more fun shenanigans taking place.  It's so nice to see them happy, isn't it?

This blog has been overrun by SHINee , and today is no exception because SM Entertainment has been dropping new content on the daily.  SHINee's mv teaser for " Everybody " (as opposed to the "Everybody" image teaser from yesterday ) was released at the crack of dawn on this side of the world, which meant I watched it with bleary eyes but also with a smile.  Check it out:
