@panlor

Thanks for some delightful selections.

What a shame that they have to be posted under #WantUBack !

A contribution from my wife for this #KpopMonday #WantUBack cuz in this house we both adore and miss him

Jonghyun - Y Si Fuera Ella https://youtu.be/0lSSIQ4lE78
cw: flashing concert lights, hanky warning, gunshot/blood (fake)

This is also a good song to point to about how translation is a series of choices - what was arguably more general in Spanish became specific in Korean due to Jonghyun's choices.

#Music #Kpop #SHINee #Jonghyun

And now for something completely different: a #KpopMonday #WantUBack that isn't because of a death!

1TYM - Good Love https://youtu.be/vVBF6ZjS_Y8
cw: video artifacts

1TYM went on military hiatus and never came back thanks to kfans being fickle as fuck. Half the group left music entirely, so I think we can call them disbanded. ;)

#Music #Kpop #KHipHop #1TYM

Next on this #KpopMonday #WantUBack, a girl group!

f(x) - Rum Pum Pum https://youtu.be/xnku4o3tRB4
cw: aggressive flashing throughout, glitch effect

Schedules are a bitch but the way f(x) just faded out was unfair.

#Music #Kpop #f_x

Ok, ok, I did indeed promise some happier songs for this #KpopMonday #WantUBack, so let's get to that, shall we?

Jonghyun - Shinin' https://youtu.be/J41qe-TM1DY
cw: lens flares, background flashing, surrealism

I'm resisting just posting all of Jjong's MVs, just for the record. ;)

#Music #Kpop #SHINee #Jonghyun

Played myself on this one...

Jinjin (ASTRO) - Fly (duet with Moonbin (ASTRO)) - https://youtu.be/9d9q-uTNKa4
cw: lens flares, hanky warning

This is maybe stretching the #WantUBack theme a wee bit, but Jinjin's Jin Lab has been a huge part of my healing process and trying to get to where I can forgive Binnie for his choices. But the video still makes me cry. 😭

#Music #Kpop #KpopMonday #ASTRO #Jinjin

Oh look, I lied - I'm not done hurting us all yet. 😅

ASTRO Moonbin x Sanha - Madness https://youtu.be/PvpRcDgd5jo
cw: aggressive flashing

I've finally gotten to a place where I can listen to this again, so.... We miss you, Binnie

#Music #Kpop #KpopMonday #WantUBack #ASTRO #MoonbinxSanha

Next on this fine #KpopMonday #WantUBack ... oh, I'm not done being mean yet, am I?

SULLI - Goblin https://youtu.be/P5uE7KDkDFE
cw: mental illness, flashing lights

Sulli deserved so much better then what knets did to her. Anyone would, did, does.

#Music #Kpop #Sulli

Are you crying yet? No? I can fix that!

Jonghyun - Lonely (feat. Taeyeon) https://youtu.be/NpTpEsE9G8c
cw: hanky warning, implied SI, lens flares, drinking

We can't have a #KpopMonday #WantUBack without Jonghyun, even if it still hurts.

#Music #Kpop #Jonghyun #SHINee

But wait, there's more!

Realslow (Wheesung) - Breaking Down https://youtu.be/Y_6VfzBl7yk
cw: flashing (lightning, darkness), hanky warning

From 2019, before he reverted back to his given name. Even more brokenhearted than the last one.

#Music #Kpop #KpopMonday #WantUBack #Wheesung

Continuing #KpopMonday #WantUBack, now with actual #Kpop!

Wheesung - Night And Day https://youtu.be/napCk8ZVlpw
cw: shaky cam

A broken hearts song because I'm on a mission to break all the hearts?

#Music #Wheesung

Oh y'all didn't think I was going to just SKIP this #PopMonday #WantUBack, did you? Time to break all our hearts!

Kagrra, - Shiroi Uso https://youtu.be/WrzAL7rO1p0
cw: hospitalization, sparkling/twinkling effects, death imagery/implied MCD

Annoyingly, the official PSC uploads have gone MIA, so we're left w. this smushed bootleg.

Picking just one Kagrra song is always a nightmare, but btwn the "death" of the band & the actual death of Isshi, this felt most appropriate.

Take That's Back For Good popped into my head because of the #PopMonday #WantUBack theme. I in fact don't want them back but it's stuck in my head now, so you have to listen to it too.
I think it'd be neat if a kpop group covered this.

IMFACT's NANANA is one of my favorite kpop songs ever, so I had to include it. You might also see/hear someone familiar: HELLO GLOOM of WAY BETTER (fka The Faker Club), Na Ungjae!!

Let me take you back to January 2014... or actually, just 2014 in general, because this song was everywhere that year, and you know what? DESERVED. This song still eats. I miss you everyday, Girl's Day.
