☊ 6집 comeback kangmin ☊

* G A S P * /dies



SUNGMINAH, why so pretty?!!? Your clear round eyes, your honey cheeks, your tall nose, your soft lips …. You really do have the perfect features for an astonishingly beautiful young lady, eh?! If this Beautiful Male concept has indeed that fairy tale setting, you're easily the princess, my Ming. Or well, taking into account the other teasers, you're Donghae's flower girl heheh.

But hey, don't we have long blond silky hair on fairy tale princes as well? Ming could easily be holding out a bouquet of flowers as a sad prince mourning his lady's ill fate perhaps? It could work like that too hehehe … ELFs are just preconditioned to see Ming as a girl (no one to blame after Marilyn Mingroe hehe).

So I love Ming's teaser this time because of the MAJOR WOW FACTOR which got him into the worldwide trending topics earlier hehe… I'm sure Ming intended it to be this way. But I can't say I love it more than last year's. I think Ming has consistently been improving on his facial expressions so that lately, his pictorials have been ohhhhh sooo good. I don't know how many times I've changed wallpapers with his Daniel (Jack the Ripper) poster and his Sukira pictures in these last weeks!



Oh and Kangin makes a comeback with his beastly teaser pic! It's definitely the most manly pic of this set so it matches well with Kangin's post-army image. It still has the fantasy feel to it though but it surely it is rougher around the edges than the other members. I really really like his eyes here and I'm curious on what they did to his hair!!!

☊ 6집 comeback teukie, wookie, donghee & yesung ☊

Oooh 4 teaser pics this weekend!!!


I'm absolutely happy with Leader's teaser pic! This is decidedly less strange than his full on blonde bangs last year ㅋㅋㅋ. But I still think that his teaser pics do his gorgeous face no justice at all. I wish to see more closeup shots of Teuk with his ethereal greek-godlike style!


Ahh, my precious Wookie!!! I love his facial expression here ~ so dramatic! And wow his jawline is JUST CRAZY MANLY~


SHIN DONGHEE!!! Oooohhh, he looks amazing in this arctic side shot! Who would think that he loves to do gag just from looking at his teaser pic!?


Yeye's teaser is just so EXO-like! Haha, he looks about 10 years younger here. Oh yeah, Yesung rocks the twigs and branches on his head. I wonder if this has something to do with Shindong's hint picture of the bird from Starking hehe..

☊ 6집 comeback hae ☊

6집 concept seems to be Sexy, Free, and PURTTTTTY!!!



So I've read plenty of strong opinions on Hae's bride-like teaser. SM seems to have a fishnet surplus from last album (I actually recall seeing some fishnet props in SJM last time too)... But this veil thing is not well favored even by Hae fansㅋㅋ. It seems like the boys are sporting really sheer clothing this time~ which makes me nervous and excited for the rest of them!

Personally, I really like Hae's teaser (and Hyuk's!). I think they're majorly GASP-worthy which is always a desired initial reaction. I actually still gasp when I see an HQ version (on my wallpaper, ahem) and then melt and drown at those deep deep Donghae eyes~~~

So who's up for Saturday!?!@?!! D-9!!!

설마...

Sungmin's pretty hyper today hehe ... and he sure enjoyed teasing the world with this!

☊ 6집 comeback hyuk ☊

JEWEL HYUK!!! You are so gorgeous!


Looking at Hyuk's teaser, I can't believe I ever thought him to be an acquired taste when I first saw him in the Happiness MV. His facial features are completely angelic which of course matches his pure personality all too well. I like the stark contrast of this teaser with that from last year. Hyuk looked really good with platinum blonde locks but his paper-white skin shines with his dark hair. I love him being so pretty in this teaser hehe… PLEASE RELEASE MORE CLOSEUPS!!!

Here we are at the onset of another epic comeback. I'm feeling nostalgic remembering how absurdly hyped I was from the 3rd, 4th and 5th album comebacks. I clearly recall booking a meeting room to watch the Bonamana MV when it was released 2010. And then camping at my couch waiting for the Mr. Simple video last year when I was supposed to be sleeping as I was on night shift! Getting all sorts of online music site accounts, buying and asking friends to buy from Soribada, watching, rewatching the MV a million times over. And then the whirlwind of music shows – streaming, downloads and crying like silly when they win the mutizen or do triple crown. Ahhhhhhhhh, that's like half my life in these past years ㅋㅋ.

So out with the new hair, a group pic on the MV set (SM's oddly lit room once again hehe), and now comes the first teaser! 6집 is coming to us this soon ~ barely a month after Seoul Encore, right? Honestly, ELF didn't get to prepare much this time as most are probably still in SMTown and SS4 hangovers. I miss having my goosebumps- moment with a power slogan like "Return of the Superior"! The boys didn't get their breaks too and had in fact been immersed in so many individual projects in the last months (jap releases, dramas, variety, radio, musicals, I AM!). I guess everyone will be diving into this blindly fueled by Kangin's return and Leeteuk's upcoming enlistment. Sapphire blue-blooded adrenaline-powered ELF! Ok, we can!

☊ eye candy: gong yoo ☊

Attention, my dear Coffee Prince fanatics …. Gong Yoo has returned to kdrama land!!! ❤❤❤



If you haven't seen Gong Yoo's newest drama, Big 빅, then you're missing out on a LOT! Gong Yoo had 2 movies (The Crucible-2011, Finding Mr. Destiny-2010) since his release from the army. But this is his first drama after the Coffee Prince (2007) phenomenon.







Yay! I love his character as Kang Kyungjoon's soul on Seo Yoonjae's body!!! It's such a joy seeing Gong Yoo act all childish and petty and randomly spouting extremely awkward english expressions every now and then ㅋㅋㅋ. It does appear like Kang Kyungjoon's spitefulness and playfulness were magnified A LOT when his soul switched to Seo Yoonjae's body. He was off the charts crazy which was perfect with Gong Yoo's portrayal hahah!






My favorite scene so far is Kang Kyungjoon's dinner table struggle with Gil Daran when Daran's father offered him a beer. His facial expressions were just INSANE! It must have been so much fun shooting this scene.









Following the recent trend of upper body exposures for Episode 1 of kdramas, Gong Yoo must of course reveal his ripped torso like the rest of them. He also had exposure scenes on Episode 2 haha. Not that I'm complaining but I sure hope they won't randomly force any succeeding nudity. I mean we get it, Gong Yoo has chocolate abs from here to infinity but his charms go well beyond his muscular built.




We are only 2 episodes into this… but I'm pretty excited! Back during my Coffee Prince days, I went as far as giving out Coffee Prince DVDs as Christmas gifts to my friends! That is of course, with the intention of getting them as addicted as myself and finding avenues to share my overflowing happiness. Needless to say, I'm having really high hopes that Big will take me to the same level (although now I know better than to force friends on my Korean fandom hihi). I will always credit Gong Yoo oppa for getting me started into serious hallyu fanaticism so I'm cheering him on on his new project. HWAITING!!!! ^^

Rainy days make me feel so nostalgic. Last weekend, everyone was celebrating #6YearswithELF and it made me want to go back to November 6, 2005.










So it will be 7 years this November ... 6th집, SS5, Kangin's comeback and Leeteuk's enlistment...
It doesn't really matter how much farther we're going cos it definitely feels like we're all in it still. For the long run ^^.
