Readers of this blog already know of my love for After School’s Lizzy through her cute appearances on “Running Man”, truth be told, several of the girls have been on the show in the past, and I liked them all enough that when I found out that After School was going to be on the latest episode of “Beatles Code”, I just HAD to check it out! Besides Lizzy, Runnign Man introduced me to Uee, and within that same episode, her fellow members Nana and Raina (who stopped by to help Uee with a mission), so there were already four reasons to watch that show, little did I know that through it, I would disover that ALL of the members were pretty and lots of fun, and by the end of the episode, I was dying to know who the OTHER members were!
I tired to make out their names as the hosts introduced them, but not only were the names spoken too faast for me to catch, they didn’t even introduce all of them! In desperation, I emailed my friend who listened to After School to see if he had any information about the individual members because I was dying to learn more about them, in particular these three girls (see below pic), who were cute, giggly fun and TOTALLY my type, especially the first one who reminded me ever so slightly of Mao Inoue:
Sadly, he told me that he had only general interest in the group and didn’t know any of the members individually except Uee (and that was from her regular job hosting Inkigayo rather than any inside scoop on After School), so I was pretty much on my own… Then suddenly like a savior swooping doewn from the skies came the cool Idol Olympics specials, andwouldn’tcha know it? They solved my burning questions regarding those mysterious girls names in just the first 20 minutes! For among the girls Idol groups there like T-ara (in their pre-fiasco days), SISTAR, DalShabet f(x) and NineMuses, also came After School, and who should be participating in the very first game, but those exact three girls I had wondered about:
Jooyeon? Lee Young? Gaeun? Finally, I had NAMES to go with those pretty faces and adorable attitudes!!! Thanks ever so much to the fine folks at KSHOWNOW who subtitled the Idol olympics and made it possible for me to crack a mystery that had been haunting my K-pop fandom!!! Now, onto the internet to look for pinups of these lovely ladies...LOLOL
PS: Using the "process of elimination" technique, the only name left on the list of After School members is Jungah, so i'm assuming that's the name of the slightly Seohyun-looking girl sitting next to Uee (above pic)...my gosh, does this mean I finally know ALL the members ??? Hallelujah! Posted by zdorama @ zdoramaagain.blogspot.com
