After School Club Episode 23 Chuseok Special W/ BTOB [FULL]

Have you had enough of BTOB yet? No? Good, here’s some more.

Sungjae, Peniel, Eunkwang, Changsub, Ilhoon, Minhyuk, and Hyunsik are back to kill off more Melodies (the few survivors of the Thriller onslaught), this time on After School Club’s 23rd episode (which aired live last night). They join 50 lucky audience members (mostly girls and maybe one or two guys) in this Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving) special. The ever-wonderful Hanbyul of LedApple helps MC.

BTOB Kills Fans Softly With “Thriller” Concept Pics

I literally cannot. CANNOT.

BTOB has finally released Thriller, in both album and MV form, and now it’s time for CUBE Entertainment to kill off any remaining Melodies. How? By releasing some more photos for BTOB’s Thriller concept, with lots of smoldering, emotion, and sometimes NO clothes (my heart stopped when I got to Hyunsik). I know, as a Melody, that these are lovable goofballs, but right now they are sexy eye-candy and I’m buying whatever they are selling.

Looking like your market ploy worked, CUBE. Kudos from the grave. My grave.

WARNING: BTOB Shirtless & Wet In “Thriller” Teaser Pics

I’ve died and gone to Ilhoon Heaven.

CUBE, I see what you’re doing. You’re trying to kill off all the Melodies before the release of BTOB‘s Thriller comeback. That’s both good and bad marketing. Who will be alive to buy it when it comes out?!

That’s right, the boys of BTOB may be cute and derpy, but they are just plain HAWT in these new teasers for their impending comeback. The only ones who chose to keep clothed, for some odd reason, were PenJae (Peniel and Sungjae). It’s cute how that decision was made together. But then, BAM, there’s even baby Ilhoon looking like he’s old enough to do some damage. Shisus help us all.

P.S. I thought Minhyuk was B2ST‘s Dongwoon for a second.
