[Scans] Wink Up June 1997

Aug 16, 2007 23:16

I hate to spam, but I thought I'd get on with a bit of scanning! I brought quite a number of second-hand magazines from the late 90's back from Japan with me, as they feature various members of K8 as cute ickle chibis. Here's the oldest one I bought, featuring Yokoyama Kimitaka on the cover and Hina and Subaru as Freshers! Bless. ♥

( Wink Up, June 1997 )

worth buying!, scans

Wow hina still looked like hina here! I mean this is like the first time I understood why they gave him that nickname. Waah he used to be so girly looking! Subaru is as cute as ever, and he still has the same cute smile, although his face has changed alot since then, definitly older and more severe looking but I would say he's alot hotter looking now :D (the long beautiful hair helps XD). Also has he always had his right ear pierced? He's been wearing a black earring in his ear since 1998, I originally thought it was just something he started doing when he went all punk rock but from watching some older shows he was in, it seems that he's had the ear of his pierced since a very young age. hmmmm....I wonder why. As for yoko, his face has changed the least! He looks older now definitly but he still has that childlike and free spirited aura about him and of course those pretty pouty lips. Seriously I remember seeing this magazine scan with a bunch of baby pictures of eito and one of the one's I recognized right away was yoko's because ( ... )

Haha, I'm sure I must've seen a picture of the Hina Hina is meant to look like, but I seem to recall not seeing the resemblance at all! XD Maybe I should look again, now I've seen so many chibi pics. XD

Not sure when Subaru got all his piercings - I like when he had the little tunnel in, he still had that last year. I like that he's gone back to wearing earrings again, I wish he still had his eyebrow ring too! (I usually don't care about piercings on guys, but somehow on idols I like it, haha! Like Ohkura too, he should wear an earring more often. :9)

I think Yoko just naturally looks better with brown or blond hair, and I guess everyone (ie, the agency!) realised this! I remember Yasu once saying he'd been dying his hair for ages too, even when he was in middle school or something and it was against the rules. XD So fashion conscious, even then~!

Sorry for late response! And haha, I wrote an essay too, lol! Don't worry, I can go on and on! ^_~

Oh my God, we have the same magazine.
I can't scan them until school starts though. I have a couple of duet and wink up from 1997
