MYNAME's reps announced that they had to throw out 20,000 copies of their recently released second single because a recording of 'Gangnam Style' was accidentally included at the end of the CD. The company decided to discard all 20,000 copies in utter secrecy upon finding out.
1. [+114, -3] I get that it's a media play generation where everyone and their mothers are doing it... But to use 'Gangnam Style' to get your name out there ㅋㅋㅋ Don't take the public for fools... And cut back on the media play. This is ruining your own group's image... Anyway, who are these guys?
2. [+46, -1] Who are they;;

1. [+311, -2] The uncomfortable reality where it was thrown away in utter secrecy but the journalist feels he must alert the public about it...
2. [+306, -12] MYNAME??? Who are these nobodies??
3. [+250, -6] "MYNAME recently started their comeback promotions with their single title track, 'Just That Little Thing'. Having released their album on the 25th, the group will be holding their comeback stage on SBS's 'Inkigayo' on the 27th." ----> Thank you, can we have the next media play enter the room.
4. [+220, -7] I thought MYNAME was some American artist at first who decided to throw away all of his albums after listening to Gangnam Style ㅋㅋㅋ Who's MYNAME???
5. [+215, -7] Noise marketing nobodies trying to squeeze themselves onto the coat tails of Gangnam Style... If a company is able to make this dumb of a mistake, I highly doubt the quality of the rest of their music...
6. [+188, -7] No seriously, who's MYNAME?
7. [+156, -5] They're blaming this on Gangnam Style? ㅋㅋㅋ Media playing over their own damn mistake
8. [+138, -7] So pathetic... nobodies trying to cash in on Psy's fame
9. [+107, -2] Cut this crap out and just let your group succeed with their music, jeez
10. [+104, -4] There are some groups where even media play can't help them. All of the variety shows would play Supa Dupa Diva at the end and call Dal Shabet the second SNSD or whatever but their reality is they only have 6,000 fans and rank somewhere in the 11-20s on the digital chart.

I don't even know how to react.
ReplyDeleteLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. ok
ReplyDeleteMost stupid media play ever. RIP MYNAME.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete"You tried" stickers all over their bldg

ReplyDeleteGod. This is the most insane idea of a media play I've encountered. I actually don't care if they will waste 20000 copies of their CDs.
ReplyDeleteAnd Gangnam style being part of this is just absurd.
Wait WHAT? WHO ????????
ReplyDeleteI'm a huge MYNAME fan and this just makes me...sad. (And so embarrassed for them, srsly.) I know you're nugus and you need the media play or whatever, but can't you come up with something less ridiculous?
ReplyDeleteHow do you even mix Gangnam Style up with your own music? sigh.（／_＼）
Never knew of MYNAME until b.a.p talked about them tbh.
ReplyDeletelol Dal shabet. All them nugus so damn desperate to survive. Well you can survive in the cut-throat market but won't ever become make "it".
ReplyDeleteummm.. sad because I kinda liked one member and I was anticipating their Korean comeback...
ReplyDeleteMedia play ruins the image of a group more than anything else...
ReplyDeleteWhatever media play say or what netizens say, MYNAME is a freakin' awesome group. I wouldn't be able to know this group without Insoo, Gunwoo and Seyong, huhuhu...this kind of "news" is just unnecessary.
ReplyDelete<---- Uncle-raging at the last comment. Don't bring Dal Shabet into this, you bastards!
ReplyDeleteThis doesn't even make sense. How could you record all your songs and then Gangnam Style somehow gets in there? That's hella random. Plus, no one tested the final copy of the album before it was sent to the cd's manufacturing company? Oh, please.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I like MyName but if their company's media play is pretty lousy :/
It's true though and they brought them in to make the point.
ReplyDeleteListen, I'm pretty understanding on nugus using media play to get their names out there but surely there must be a way to do it without making it seem like the people employed by their company are total idiots. Accidentally recording Gangnam Style on professional quality CDs? Is their recording studio located in a broke down shack?
ReplyDeleteJust make a faux scandal like the others do. That even works sometimes.
Off-topic: You have to be the fastest replier I've ever seen on the internet. I hadn't even taken my hands off the keyboard before your reply showed up, LOL!
ReplyDelete"rank somewhere in the 11-20s on the digital chart."
ReplyDeleteisn't that good enough? .__.
RIP MYNAME??..i just died reading you comment,,,lol
ReplyDeleteAre B.A.P and MYNAME from the same company? when did they talk about them?
ReplyDeleteThey're from different companies, but they attend the same dance center and share the same dance team. B.A.P has mentioned their close friendship with MYNAME a few times on radios and such.
ReplyDeleteWhat I don't understand is how nugu companies don't realize that these media play attempts are just running their own groups into the ground.
ReplyDeleteThey're not from the same company, but they attend the same dance center and share the same dance team. B.A.P has mentioned their close friendship with MYNAME a few times on radio shows and such in the past.
ReplyDeleteif this goes on, myname and sori will be the example career ruined by media play
ReplyDeleteI guess the media play worked. They clicked on the article and commented.
ReplyDeletelol that's what I thought. For a bunch of nugus, that would be a big deal.. no?
ReplyDeletelol.
ReplyDeletelol yeah.. I think Zelo danced to Message (?) once backstage.. or was it another B.A.P member? lol
ReplyDeleteahh....thank you :)
ReplyDeleteI thought MYNAME was some American artist at first who decided to throw away all of his albums after listening to Gangnam Style ㅋㅋㅋ <<< I'm sorry, I'm imagining it LOOOOOOOOOOL
ReplyDeleteI don't know what the hell is with their company doing this. I ... don't know.
ReplyDeleteCan't hate their hustle tbh
ReplyDeleteIt's the only way they can throw their name out there.......
ReplyDeleteI think they mean that the 11-20s range is where they peaked on the charts. So no, that's actually not very good at all.
ReplyDeletedefinitely worthy of the article title.
ReplyDeletewhy not getting caught holding hands with Joon's fakey wife? just a thought.
ReplyDelete4. [+220, -7] I thought MYNAME was some American artist at first who decided to throw away all of his albums after listening to Gangnam Style ㅋㅋㅋ
