Jesus it really does, even with Kris present. I mean the verses are as awkward as they were in Korean but the chorus just flows so much better in Chinese, it's ridiculous.
Not to mention the -M version of the video was better too. Dying at the oldies upstaging K.
Edit: Wait, the bridge is actually better than the K version too, it's literally just Kris' rap that sucks but there's no surprises there.

I thought most of their websites had that antiquated software
I know ones that require money at least, which is like a lot

Up and coming girl group T-ARA is fully intact and will be reborn when her second album is released. her return to top tier is imminent as she'll soon be the only girl group left in the nation with the rate the others are falling apart

Ugh, this kills me. Besides being about a minute too long I prefer Surisuri over Somesing anyday.

0:24 - 0:49 of Red Light was so promising
And then the chorus comes on

nnnnnnnnn that gif is so correct
The intro, first verse and bridge are wasted on Red Light. I still like it, but that chorus never fully grew on me. SM need to stop being so "alternative" and stick to a simpler formula if the song warrants it

And blows everything out of the water to form the most explosive and impressive song of the year.
I know sis, it was tough on me too.

"cymbal line, there" in the chorus of Red Light
