Ladies Code RiSe Passes Away

 I just now learned the heartbreaking news that Ladies Code Kwon Risae "RiSe" finally succumbed to  injuries she sustained during the fatal crash that claimed fellow member EunB's life just a few days ago. There were problems during her surgery where her blood pressure fell so low they had to stop procedures. They eventually finished it up, bus she never regained consciousness. My relief when I'd heard she was out of surgery was cut by the news that her survival was still in doubt, today she finally let go. Ladies Code management Polaris Entertainment:
At the time of the accident on the 3rd, RiSe obtained a big injury to her head and was moved to the hospital. She was operated on as much as possible for a long time, but she has ultimately passed away. Her parents, who came from Japan, and the label employees stayed with her at the end. We are sorry to give another sad news since the late EunB and we cannot hide our sorrow."

I was just watching all my Ladies Code music show performances last night, tyring to get used to the fact that EunB is no longer with us, so sad to realize RiSe is gone, too. Here's the girls' very last, happy Television performance, just a few days ago.

Ladies Code Tragedy

Ladies Code Go Eunbi "EunB"

Very saddened to hear the terrible news of the car accident involving K-pop group Ladies' Code which fatally took member EunB's life this past day. As of now, other members Rise and Sojung are still hospitalized, Rise in very serious critical condition with head trauma.
 So sad, though I haven't talked much about them here, I did like them and their music quite a bit- I had purchased their past album "Pretty Pretty" last year, and was really enjoying their latest comeback song "Kiss Kiss", sadly, It was during the promotions for this song that they got into the tragic accident, reportedly due to slippery rain conditions.
 My heart goes out to the members and all their friends and family, right now I'm praying for a safe recovery for the remaining members.

Spica and Ladies' Code Arrivals

Ladies' Code and SPICA Autographed Editions!

 Got a couple of CDs today from the folks over at Yesasia as part of their awesome Autographed Specials, Ladies' Code's new Mini-Album "Pretty Pretty" and SPICA's single for their new song Tonight". Though I've liked both groups enough, this is the first time I've ever purchased anything from them. I'd actually really REALLY liked SPICA's song "I'll Be There" from last year, and couldn't WAIT to purchase the album, alas, it was one of their "digital release only" songs, and when their new mini-album "Lonely" came out, "I'll be There" was not to be seen on it.
  I like SPICA's song "Tonight" well enough, and I TOTALLY LOVED Ladies' Code "Pretty Pretty", but naturally, the thing that pushed me into quickly ordering these CDs was that they were autographed! And sure enough, both albums came with the members pretty signatures adorning the jackets...
  SPICA's signatures were particularly neat and legible and I love that they signed under the images of themselves. Ladies Code, on the other hand,  was signed on the cover which made it sort of hard to make out since the cover was so crazy and LOUD, LOL! I wish they could have flipped the book over and signed the BACK of the CD since their cute pictures were right there!

SPICA's album also came with a set of Buttons (how's THAT for 80's nostalgia?) as well as a SPICA earcap, which, of course, made me go online to research "Just What the HECK is an Earcap?" 

SPICA CD, Button Set and EarCap

Turns out it's a designer plug used to cover your earphone jack so dust doesn't get in it, and there are TONS of different kinds out there! Ahahaha, I guess I'm just not tuned into these newfangled Iphone-y Accesories (was even recently amazed when my friend's girlfriend showed me the rubber "octopus" stand she got to prop up her phone while watching movies) but I was quite interested seeing all the collectible earcaps available online when I DID find out what it was!

Assorted Earcaps

OK, Time to start ripping these Bad Boys to MP3...
