Merry Christmas to everyone. Even though it might not always seem this way, you all have really helped me a lot in the past year or so and I appreciate that. I've gone through some stuff I've had a lot of trouble with but none of that bothers you all, and that feels great to have. I might not like ATRL but I really love what I have with all of you.
Merry Christmas to you all and to all a good night!

Yesssssss at Beautiful being 2PM's biggest
Kiss Kiss making it to the top 100
Roly-Poly and Sexy Love in the top 200
Lovey-Dovey managing to sell 30K copies with only one song in the single (being sold at 15 dollars)
Good Day selling more than You & I
AS, 2NE1, Rainbow, OC
Forbidden Love is the only J-single from U-KISS I liked this year, it deserved more
Jewelry Box gold
Playgirlz and Over The Rainbow did good
I thought B1A4 and U-KISS sold way more than that
Se7en
IU flopping
At least Secret are still outselling 4Minute
Such a "smart" strategy oF TS for abandoning Korea and focus on Japan
now Secret flopped in both
nnnnn;
I agree tho, they were smashing in Korea with Shy Boy and SLML, then they throw them to Japan And then they make their korean comeback 1 day before SNSD
At least Madonna was a decent hit in Japan with its 21K copies. The others tho

Just like SECRET’s Zinger, Hyoyeon seems to be growing suspiciously hotter with each comeback. Has the Kween had surgeries, or is she just blossoming into the heavenly angel that she was born to be? Whatever the answer is, she ***** on your faves and you will deal.
I CAN'T BREATHE
EDIT: that performance of The Boys is the one and only time
Taeyeon has hit that high note properly and dear God did
she nail it that was awesome
