[GENERAL] The BNK48 Thread

The anti hit new low. After successfully exposed Cake, the next target of that anti was Minmin. He exposed Minmin of dating and leaving her con dad rotting all alone in the cell. The exposure this time not just failed but result reverse effect, Minmin even gained more fans as she cleared herself well. She said she had dated but they all were in the past, she had made her mind to be idol thus she must abide by the idol rule. About her father, she said, due to a business difficulty, her father could not be with her since she was very young and consequently ended up confined, she was not close to him but had visited him some times, every times, she asked him how he was and he would reply he was fine and he loved her. Meanwhile, the anti is being grilled for bringing up family issue.

BNK's members in films
Last years BNK's members were in 3 films as listed below (member: film title: production agency: director)
Orn: App War: T Moment: Yanyong Guruankur
All Gen 1 members: Girls Don't Cry: BNK48 Office & GDH: Nawapol Thamrongratanarit
Cherprang: Homestay: GDH: Phakphum Wongphum

This year, there will be more films featuring BNK's members
Mewnich: Sisters: Sahamongkol: Pratya Pinkaew
Music, Jennis, Tarwaan, Namneung, Pupe, Fai & Panda: Where We Belong: BNK Office & Songsound Production: Kongdet Jaturanrasamee
Kaew & Noey: T้haibaan 3: Soeng Production: Surasak Pongson
All Gen 2 members: Girls Don't Cry 2: BNK48 Office

Sisters was filmed before Mewnich joined BNK48 and she was a lead actress (along with another girl playing the sister).
Music is the lead of Where We Belong and Jennis is the main supporting actress, others took minor supporting roles.
It has not annouced who will direct Girls Don't Cry 2.
Thaibaan is a shocker as this is what last episode of Thaibaan looks like

if the video does not show watch the video here

Cherprang will play violin in the election thank you concert.

I believe it's the opposite where Jennis is the lead (Sue) and Music is the main supporting actress (Bell).

I like the director. Really looking forward to this film.

 

AKB49 missing out a lot of interesting potential plot point by not including international sister group lmao

 

I would genuinely like to know this anti's motivation for trying to discredit women who are attempting to bring a little joy and something different to their country and culture.
As with anything that seems to be going from strength to strength, some people just aren't satisfied unless they can tear it down.
First Cake, now Minmin. Absolutely ridiculous.

 

An analysis pointed out this anti was highly intellectual. He was very well-versed in English and Japanese, a true tri-lingual, plus he could write a (distorted) essay on J-pop idol culture that looked like an article from sociological journal. Also, it has been speculated this anti may live oversea that he has no fear if he will ever be arrested for defamation. (He also spread a manip nude photo of Cherprang, putting cherprang face on a nude model. Cherprang made a sharp jap on this loser. When a journalist asked "Any comment to the poster?", she replied "No comment. The action has shown what kind of person he is.")

From all these info, I doubt if he is Pawin, a professor at Kyoto University. This toxic gay had a beef on Cherprang. Pawin was a professor in Japanese Studies at Chulalongkorn University. He biasedly repeatedly criticized the junta that he got a summon warrant on defamation. Knowing a warrant on him was issued, he fled to Japan and got a job at Kyoto University due to his excellent academic record. Liberal Pawin had expressed his distaste on Cherprang as she helped the junta to promote an education project. A wota stanning another member spurred Pawin to lash on Cherprang by sending him a photo of Cherprang from a magazine. On the photo was her words "It's tiring to be me". (Cherprang said she had no day-off, she either studied or worked 7 days a week thus she was very tired.) Pawin criticized via Facebook how Cherprang dared to say she was tired, everyone must work hard to make a living, if she didn't want to be tired, just quit and be unemployed. Pawin was a friend of Thanatorn, the leader of an extreme liberal party, New Alternative Party. So, fuming wotas campaigned to ban New Alternative Party. A rep of the party announced Pawin had no involvement to the activity of the party, he was not a member of the board not even a member, what he typed was his personal opinion not shared by any member of the board. Pawin enraged and tried to convince fellow liberals to turn aback on New Alternative. To my pleasure, this wedged the conflict within the liberal circle.

I wish all foreign govts aware all those self-claimed political refugees are close to Pawin on the level of toxicity.

I wonder if AKB ever had political impact like BNK.

 

LOL

This is the so-called "anti" FB...

This is Pavin Chachavalpongpun FB...
https://www.facebook.com/pavinchachavalpongpun

Judge for yourself, I don't think it's the same person.

Pavin Chachavalpongpun, Ph.D.

He only mentioned Cherprang because he's anti-junta activist, that's it.

Well, you know Cher is like... cozy up with Junta leader. LOL

 

AKB48 with BNK48 segment in Kouhaku received 42.9% ratings and top 9 within the highest! congrats gurls!!

 

You know a person can create double account?
I'm sincerely shocked that Pavin has a fan here.

How did this justify his lash over Cherprang's saying "It's tiring to be me."?

I agree with Cherprang, no matter how they seized the authority, they were the govt of the country and the project she involved was a project aimed to improve the education standard in the country, a good project anyway. She should not support a good education project just because the one running it is junta? Neither she should support a project like "rice pledge" or "first car" simply because the ruling govt came through election.

 

Well that's a lot of effort put into that hate page. A lot.

Gossip aside, the kouhaku performance was indeed great. Liked the dresses, pairing and mix of JP-TH lyrics. I wonder if Mobile's mileage in the ssk will be improved by this. JP fans, please do some magic!

 

Tell you what, this is NOT the place to talk about Politic, I'll talk about this once. This dictator use taxpayer money to pay for his numerous populist policies, and you know that useless submarine lol, much more than Thaksin+Yingluck combined. Cherprang is a Junta supporter (this is a serious matter), Pavin is one of many anti-junta activists, they keep bashing anyone who is Junta supporter, that's it.

This so-called "anti" FB https://www.facebook.com/SexyBNK48/ post (for fun?) stolen/leaked/fake sexy images of BNK members, not only Cherprang, people didn't pay much attention until this picture...



Well, regardless fake or not, considering no dating policy, Cherprang is human after all. LOL

 

Since I don't want to talk about politics here but Cherprang never said that she's support that junta, but you know that you can say no when work come in form of government. And that's photo is fake on that start everything in that anti fan page please stop sharing this.

 

This is the first time I see some stupid fake photo here and some politic problem in this forum.

 

I don't want to continue, I'm not the one who brought up political issues in this thread (read #1066) but you know action speak louder than words, she is one of those yellow-shirt celebrities who support the military regime.

 

Junta-supporter or not, only one who knows is herself. Honestly I really don't like when government drags celebrities into jobs and such. It's like they are forced to publicly pick sides. And then there's people who go hating on another just because they are "apparently" on different sides.

Anyway, 2019 has come. JKT can have their own song now. I think it's a bit early for BNK to get that kind of privilege but what I think the agency/studio should do is:

Please improve the voice mixing/recording quality. BNK Festival is a mess. That voice audition song is only a tad better. I read from somewhere last year that they blamed the quality of the files they got from AKS but it's been five singles and it didn't improve much.

 

Desserto theme song is not exactly public release but does it count as own song?

 

If that's the case then JKT already released their own song since 2014-ish with JKT48 x Line Let's get rich lmao

JKT still have some mixing problem I believe, even for those in MV such as Junai no Crescendo sounds kinda bad

 

Just take this with a grain of salt from one of Thai anchor's twitter

Today Jobsan(BNK48 manager) travel to Cambodia to talk about upcoming 3rd generation audition by applicants are girl selected from Thai, Laos, Cambodia & Myanmar.

And going ro start audition from Cambodia first and do press conference on 6 March and bring some members(Cherprang, Mobile, Pun, June, Fifa & Mewnich) to promote this project there.

And this is co-project from BNK48 and TV5 of Cambodia.

What do you guys think about this idea? I'm ok with Laos since our language are kind of similar but I don't think that Thais are have good relationship with Cambodia that much last times they argue over Khon. I'm afraid that pressure are going to go it to girls.

 

This... sounds strange. I'm all for new members and excited for another generation, but from three other countries? No other group does that!
That sounds like a lot of information for it just to be a rumour too.

My initial reaction is 'WTF, pls no', so I'm going to roll with that. It sounds unnecessary. :/

 

Fans worry over conflicts between countries, Laotian and Cambodian do not look at Thai fondly and the group may be used as a tool to irk a political dispute with these peoples. Surprisingly, despite historical controversy, people from Myanmar looks at the Thai neutrally.
Meanwhile, the Laotian has favored the Viet much more and any Laotian speaking Thai on Thai TV show receives harsh backlashes back in his/her homeland.

I have no knowledge to discuss if the submarine is useful or not (and very skeptical actually) so, I give the benefit of the doubt to the govt. However, do you even know how much the damage from Yingluck's rice pledge project worth? It's 80-100 billion THB, this project alone cost much more than the submarine + all other popularism projects of this govt combined.

Cherprang supports the govt of the country and nothing is wrong about it. Think about it this way, the board of Football Association of Thailand may be shady but the footballer must perform his best for national team regardless. He may even sign the petition to kick out the president of the association but that must not interfere with his effort as national athlete.

She said in the interview for GQ that she willingly promoted the govt's project.

Nothing is worse than BNK's. Thai wotas use JKT's sound quality to disprove BNK's agency excuse about the technical difficulty.
