Well... MAP6's comeback album placed #18 on the GAON Weekly Album charts which I think is actually great for the 1st comeback of a rookie group of a smaller company. So I think they are actually doing well despite not having many appearances on TV/radio. It's just that the international K-Pop websites seem to ignore most of MAP6's achievements/activities, seeing how MAP6 already had their Japanese debut at the beginning of this year as well...

If I remeber correctly, DreamT mentioned that Girl's Day will resume promotions as a group after the members who are currently acting in dramas got some rest. ^^ So maybe Girl's Day will make their comeback around late summer or in the later half of the year? :)

I don't think they hate each other, though. XD I'm often told that I look angry whenever I'm don't smile, but I'm not actually angry, it's just that I can't smile 24 hours a day. ^^;; I think it might be the same for this situation: they just didn't smile, maybe they forgot that the radio show has a camera as well and all of them might be really tired because of their promotions or something? ^^

MAP6 was sort of going for a bad boy look in their debut song, and this picture is from that era. As for Girl's Day I have no idea since I don't follow them.

Ahahaha true! People also get the wrong perception of me sometimes too when I'm not smiling. It's just that I'm so used to seeing many idols look really happy and cheery! >.< But anyways, thanks for the nice explanation :)

Tuchid_XD thestarsinthesky • Wednesday, June 8, 2016

Yeah that would make sense too, I don't follow them either, but I have seen some of their songs/MVs. :) I just didn't really think that they may have had to act that way due to the songs they presented. >< But then I guess other idols do this too... right?

ke85pop Tuchid_XD • Wednesday, June 8, 2016

You're welcome. :) MAP6 is actually an extremely cheery and smiley group if you check out their MAP6TV episodes and the other few shows they were on. They are such adorable dorks most of the time. =3 But they are human, so I understand that they can't smile during every moment of all their activities. I'm sure there are moments when they are simply serious and focused and don't smile without any bad emotions. :) There are so many incidents of idols being misunderstood simply because they happened to not smile in one specific moment during which they were caught on camera. I often pity them for that...

Tuchid_XD ke85pop • Wednesday, June 8, 2016

That's great to know about them :) yeah, it's really sad how netizens are so quick to give hate to idols when they only saw it for a second or the trickle of a rumour. :/ Perhaps, you may already know, but I'll say just in case, so you don't misunderstand me, the first comment in which I said that CLC and MAP6 look like they hated each other was actually just meant to be a lighthearted joke, ^^ I just thought the photos taken of them were funny :) :D

ke85pop Tuchid_XD • Wednesday, June 8, 2016

I know you didn't seriously mean it and the pictures really aren't the best representing examples for both CLC or MAP6. XD But as you said: idols can get into trouble if there is just one trickle of a rumour. :( It's unfortunate, so I tought it might be better to leave a comment before there are any kind of misunderstandings by other people. :) I really don't want CLC or MAP6 to get into this kind of trouble. I think I would have done the same for any idol from whatever group, I'm kind of protective towards idols regarding matters like this because I totally understand how it feels like to be misunderstood because of not smiling. ^^ But it's kind of good to have a calm exchange of thoughts sometimes. :D

Tuchid_XD ke85pop • Wednesday, June 8, 2016

Coolio! :D Well it's really kind of you to care so greatly about these idol groups! :) But I thought that most rumours came from k-netz, you know, since allkpop mainly states them for spreading or reacting to it and don't really talk much about international fans.. although I'm probs wrong XD But yeah, the effort you put into ensuring all idols are understood is very much appreciated by me, (although this has been our first interaction with each other ^^ so I can't actually say much :p :) Yeah I really liked how our conversation was chilled without flames and all :) I haven't experienced it personally but I know some people just get the hate in comment sections. So I guess I'm really lucky to not have experienced it! :D

ke85pop Tuchid_XD • Wednesday, June 8, 2016

I'm a multi-fandom K-Pop fan, so yeah... I try to care about idols equally, they are all working hard and they all deserve appreciation. :) Sadly, rumours (or fanwars) can start everywhere. And there are Koreans on AKP too, but maybe not as many. ;) I have to admit that I rarely comment on AKP nowadays because the comment sections are often a little bit too emotional for me and I did get hate here too despite of posting calm comments. I suppose I'm getting too old for all the comment drama, so I'm often a quiet reader. XD I've been more active regarding comments again lately, though. So you might see me around. ;)

Well it was great talking to you! Yeah I'm also a quiet reader, I don't comment very often either but sometimes get the urge to do so :)

No but according to asianwiki he's in a project group called One O One. Kwak Si Yang is part of that group.
