[GENERAL] The BNK48 Thread

15 mins of member play a game and punishment for the loser

Pilot ep 1

Seem like they got sponsor from the shop around fish tank this time

 

Also, to add to this a bit; Don't ask me how I know this (because I can't reveal much more than this) but the real episodes would start airing after October, because that whole month would be dedicated to mourning the late King Bhumibol Aduyadej's death, and I'm guessing they want to avoid as much controversy as possible as it's still a small group and it may be precieved to some as rude.

 

If the program is kinda informative/ encouraging/ not solely entertainment focus, I think it's appropriate to be published until Oct 13.

Senile line KFC choreo videos. Same choreo and age, kinda different feels.

Before Kaew could successfully posted the video, she kept getting the message "Your video is not posted. It likely contains a part of the song, sound, or video of another person." thus, Kaew ranted "Facebook doesn't know BNK48's Kaew it seems. She sings this song, you know? This is my own song. I'm not another person." Also, she commented that, out of those 100k+ views, 50k came from her alone.

Some interesting bits from Q&A with Shihainin(s)
- The CD won't be available in chain stores.
- Possible BNK48's original songs, it had been mentioned several times.
- Team B next year, Team N following year, K a year after following year.
- Another road show.
- Another handshake by the end of this year.
- After theatre opened, fish tank will be for new gen.
- Photobook and lightstick to be released.
- A sub unit soon.

 

They plan to sell photo set every month too. But if they gonna do that, I want them to sell the photo album too. cuz mine is already full and the 3.5x5 photo album is really hard to find these days. T T

 

I feel like they just wanna stay safe and not release most forms of entertainment until October ends, yanno? But I get you though.

Jaa and Mind are officially the WCenter for the coupling song of the 2nd single!
(Some are speculating that Skirt Hirari is the coupling song, is it purely a guess or is it really official? I can't understand Thai..)
By the way, who's the center for the A-side? and is Pupe included in senbatsu for A-side?

 

Mobile is center and Pupe is in senbatsu.

PS. demoted senbatsu are Can and Namhom. I was pretty surprised that Namnueng was selected in but not Can. I guess it's the power of Senile Line. Most members of Senile Line are more popular and it will be devastated for them if 1 of them is selected out.

It's speculated from songs released and songs members had said they practiced that the first theatre performance set list of BNK is "Party ga hajimaru yo". So, the new song likely is a song in that set list.

 

For Cancan, There's a rumor floating around for 1-2 month before this that she ask to get demote from senbatsu herself because she wants to graduation(from university, not the band) as soon as possible, so she can focus on the band activity after this. So I'm not surprised that much for her to get demoted.

But for Namhom, This must be devastating for her because she just got demoted to nowhere. Not even a slot for B-Side track for her. Even I'm not oshi her but I kinda feel bad for her right now.

and Yayyyyy for Double Center for my oshi Mindddddd!!! Yayyyyy

 

"Skirt Hirari" was speculated because they played the opening during the Senbatsu debut for the second Coupling Song?

 

I don't think the rumor is so credible. Most Can's Thai fans are down saying "It's OK, there are many more singles ahead.". They clearly didn't know Can "wanted" to be demoted. Besides, there isn't that big different between senbatsu and non-senbatsu as BNK48 has rotational policy. Many non-senbatsu got to perform/attend smaller events. The very different is that non-senbatsu won't be in the CD and won't be in the MV. Only front-line members are significantly busier.

Usually, Thai celebs choose the opposite path, they rather lengthen their studying by taking 3 - 4 courses per semester that they can keep on working on the side. It's not good for popularity maintenance if they just disappear for a whole year.

Oops. I rewatched the video and Job did say "Skirt Hirari".

 

@welp I saw it live on their Facebook. Lol.

Does BNK48 Show have subtitles?

 

Sadly, no. But I can make subtitles for them!

 

It's really boring show. I was trying to do subtitles too. But fell asleep every time I watched it.

 

Yes, please. Thank you.
