New EXO teaser: Kai

Okay guys are you ready for this new teaser that features......you guessed it Kai. This is the reason why I stopped watching the teasers after they released the "What is Love" MVs, I am sick and tired of Kai already. SM needs to listen to us when we say that we are getting tired of Kai. It's being said that they are debuting in March, but I am not so sure about that. If they aren't on their game when they debut, then there will be a lot of criticism because we all know that they were trained and during this ridiculously long "promotion" period they better had perfected the choreography and have amazing vocals because mediocre will not cut it with them because SM is making them to be the best group they ever had. (Which we all know NO ONE will overcome DB5K). But at least SM knows they will debut this year. Watch they debut December 31st. How pissed would you be.
Well my rant has gone on long enough, here is Kai's new teaser.

Starcall from FT Island: Hongki & Min Hwan

I got this starcall in the middle of the night from FT Island and something told me to answer it because Hongki might be on it but I was so tired and I wouldn't understand a thing on it. But I should have answered it anyway because I wanted to see Hongki's face. :(

Big Bang: Youtube update

Since the release of "Blue" last week there have been 7k views as of today. YAY!!!. The MV is even starting to earn medals. Check out the medals and MV below (it won't kill you to watch it one more time)



Block B's P.O Condition

The diagnosis of Block B's P.O, who was hospitalized as a result of public criticism against their inappropriate interview with Thailand media, has been revealed.
Through a call with W Star News from a representative of Block B's management BrandnewStardom, it was explained that, "The results of P.O's diagnostic tests, who is currently admitted to a university hospital, has come out. The psychiatric expert's opinion is that it's stress-induced schizophrenia. It looks like the immediate cause of it would be excessive cyber-bullying." The official added that while his condition is not critical, his improvement shall be further monitored before other arrangements are made.
"We hope there will be no more criticisms arising from mere speculations. Although we had hoped to not expose the hospital, fans are already moving (to visit him). Because it is now the weekend, it would also be difficult to move him to another hospital." He continued, expressing their helplessness in the situation.
Regarding the other members of Block B, he relayed that, "The kids were ignorant and rash but the reactions have been too severe. At present they are very anxious and look very pitiful." He avoided responding to questions about Block B's future activities.

B2ST Papa's perform "Fiction" on Win Win

I felt as though I got too excited when I saw this video. THEY ARE THE COOLEST DADS EVER!!!!! If my dad ever did that I would seriously disown him.....JUST KIDDING, but seriously my dad, dancing, and k-pop should never EVER meet in any lifetime.

John Park releases "Falling" MV

I have seriosuly never heard of John Park but I read that he was a Superstar K2 contestant and was signed to Music Farm Entertainment. I am hoping that this is really good. My friend tells me that a lot of thought seemed to be put into the music video.



MY THOUGHTS:
He has a really good voice. He isn't the normal k-pop artist that I would listen to but there is something about his voice that I really like.
I really wonder what this song is about becas I see things floating around including him at some point and I have no clue what is going on. I'm guessing that he is in the red thing that is falling???? So he is literally falling.

OVERALL IMPRESSION:
Even though I understood nothing that was going on in the video, I really enjoyed it.. I might even get his mini album. I'm looking forward to see future songs from him.

Brave Girl's release "These Days You" MV teaser



It sounds that it is going to be very interesting. I really like the dress that Yejin was wearing at the beginning.

Big Bang releases "Blue"



Here is American K-Pop's Kristin view on the video
This is my opinion and feel free to disagree, but I think the music video is just terrible. The boys flew all the way to New York to film it, and for what? The styling is completely whacked (as in I want to whack that bandana off of Taeyang’s head), the composition is boring and unoriginal, the random model they hired is dead-behind-the-eyes, and we’ve learned that no one should ever film TOP running. More than anything, the video looks like it was thrown together haphazardly, maybe in only a few days. It’s standard ballad fare and no where near does justice to how beautiful and unexpected the song is. Unfortunately the song deserves much much better. Daesung looks really good though.
This was seriosuly hilarious to read.



MY THOUGHTS:
I had to watch this video 3 times. The first time I fangirled every 5 seconds and had to pause the video. The second time I was tearing up and still fangirling and that third time I actually had time to LOOK at the video and not just stare at Top the moment he was on screen.
Does anyone know if that bar piercing in Seungri's ear is real or is it fake? I sure hope to God that it is fake.
The girl they had in the video clearly sucked, and I'm not saying that because she was in the video but if you are gonna have a close up of her face tell her to put some emotion her eyes, because I felt like I was staring at a dead model. For those of you who have watch "Americas Next Top Model" with Tyra Banks, I can see her telling the girl at eliminations that she has to learn how to put emotion in her eyes, because there is nothing more boring then a model with a great pose but no emotion behind it. Seriously she irked me throughout the whole video and she was ugly.
So.....GD had a red/orange could have been pink looking bang and an yellow bang, I hope they don't keep doing that because to me the yellow bang made him look pale.
What the heck is up with them putting a bandana on Taeyang? That just threw me off and I wanted to snatch it off, it didn't look all that great
I agree with Kristin on the fact that they should not have filmed Top running.....not because it was horrible but it looked hilarious on so many levels to me.
Daesung did look great, his hair really grew on me. I usually prefer my k-pop idols with dark colored hair because it looks great on them, and only some of them can pull of bleached and insanely colored hair. Speaking of colored hair, Top's hair color seems to be fading a little, I wonder if they are gonna touch that up before they start promoting.

OVERALL IMPRESSION:
This song wasn't horrible but it wasn't "Love Song", "Tonight" and "Somebody to Love" great either. I mean those songs were epic and this one was alright at best, I am hoping that the next song they choose to make a MV out of will be epic. "Blue" left me feeling like I was expecting an all you can eat buffet, but was instead given a plate that had an adequate amount of food on it, I WANT MORE!!!!

________
Hope you guys enjoyed my little rant, and noticed that I go into more detail when I give my thoughts for Big Bang videos. I'll try to do this with the other MV's so you guys have more to read and clearly understand my thought process throughout watching it.

Girls' Generation and Chocolat songwriter "Jenny Hyun" receives criticism for racist tweets

Songwriter Jenny Hyun has been put under fire for her recent tweets towards black people, blasting them with racist and hateful comments. The misguided anger started with a tweet by Floyd Mayweather, a famous American professional boxer. Mayweather tweeted, "Jeremy Lin is a good player but all the hype is because he's Asian. Black players do what he does every night and don't get the same praise."

This tweet comes around the same time as a racist headline covered the page of ESPN.com, after their seven-game winning streak came to an end with a loss against the New Orleans Hornets. The title, reading "Chink In The Armour", had already created a sore spot with fans of Jeremy Lin just moments before.

K.Will releases "I Need You"

I saw this MV last night right before I went to bed and I have no idea what it's about, I just know the girl (Bora from Sistar) leaves and all of a sudden she is there again. But looking at this was a big breath of freash air, for once someone doesn't die or have something happen to them this is purely just a love song. The whole time I was watching this I was seriously thinking that something was gonna happen. Like she was gonna be a ghost and there is some tragic story behind it or whenever they walk around a car would come speeding at them and he pushes her out of the way and gets hit (you know like in Ft Island's "Severely"). That is how you know I watch to many slow k-pop song MV's stuff like that always happens.
I wish that K.Will would be in his MV's sometimes, I would't mind staring at his face. And what makes this even more perfect that it is in time for Valentine's Day. :D

JYJ wishes you a Happy Valentine's Day

Unfortunately I understood nothing in this video, I will be looking for subs of the video which doesn't mean English only.

On Feb.13, just one day before the album’s release, Evan uploaded a teaser for the song “Trying Not to Remember” on his official YouTube Web page. In the film clip, fans can catch a glimpse of Evan’s soulful voice and acting skills – he even sheds a tear.

Evan made his debut in 2007 with the album “Hard to Breathe.” Since then he released his second album “Pain Reliever” in 2008 and third album “Anew” in 2010.

The 28-year old singer is a former member of boy band Click-B from the late ‘90s. The band made its debut in 1999 with a self-titled album; some of their hit songs were “One” and “Alone.”

Big Bang filming in New York for comeback

I am insanely jealous right now, but I am also kinda not. Mainly because the boys need their privacy and I totally respect that but you guys know how fangirls/fanboys can be. Standing out side ALL NIGHT, and FYI for those who don't know it is freezing outside. I hope that they don't get sick especially Youngbae (Taeyang) and Daesung because they are out in freezing weather with short sleeves on.
PS- If you don't want any spoilers about their comeback then don't watch the first video, the second and third is just them at the airport and GD and Seungri going into the hotel. It doesn't show anyone's hair. We all know that Top has blue hair and Daesung is now blonde and it seems that Seungri has black hair so that is all we see. You see a glimpse of GD's hair and it looks black but you never know it could be something else that just looks dark. Youngbae's (Taeyang) hair is still speculation at this point.
I would like to refer you guys back to my Big Bang Comeback: Korea teasers post, which includes all the teaser pictures up until today, a picture will be released everyday at 11 until the 17th, so I will be updating that post the moment the pictures are released.

For their 100th day anniversory AA (Double A) shares a special MV, "Call"



Debut 100 Days Anniversary
Music Remix and Video Made & Directed by: AoorA

Girl's Generation performs "The Boys" on French TV Show, "Le Grand Journal"

On February 9th, Girls' Generation made their big France debut with their English title track "The Boys" on the popular French television talk show CANAL Plus' "Le Grande Journal."

The initial audience reaction was very explosive as fans cheered for the popular South Korean girl group, leading to a successful first stage for Girls' Generation.

The hosts begins introducing Girls' Generation stage and said, "It's the new phenomenon, Korean Pop, called K-Pop. It has attracted more than 50 million views on YouTube, more than 10,000 fans at the Bercy Stadium yesterday, with hundreds of thousands of fans around the world. They are called 'Girls' Generation,' 'SNSD.' For the first time on French television, I present to you Girls' Generation with their single 'The Boys'!"

The audience showed similar enthusiasm as U.S. Soshi fans last week, and sang and shouted fanchants along with the group as they sang, with the several MCs looking on in awe.

At the end of their performance, Girls' Generation walked up to the MC table. One of the MCs can be heard saying, "It's so rare, what a phenomenon."

Another said, "It's rare, rare! And especially, I don't know which one to pick. They're all great."

"Are you coming for a tour to Belgium?" another joked, "I'm going to discuss this with them now," while another added, "I'm married, I should leave the stage now."

The main MC then begins the main interview with Tiffany and Sooyoung at the helm and asked, "How was the group created?"
Sooyoung answers in Korean with the help of a Korean-French translator. "Girls' Generation is a group made up of 9 girls. We were recruited when we were young and with the casting, we started out really early, and here we are, like that we started the group.
One of the woman MCs asked with a big smile, "How do you find your welcome in France? Your French fans, how do you find them?"
Tiffany answers in English and said, "This is the second time we've been in France and this is the first time we've been on France TV {French television} and it's just a joy to see our fans here. Especially when we're performing here, you can hear them participating and it just feels amazing. Thank you so much! You guys are awesome!"

Last week, Girls' Generation made their national television debut in the U.S. on the "Late Night Show with David Letterman" and "LIVE! with Kelly."

MY THOUGHTS:
Like I said before they only need 13 teasers (I know change that to 15). One for each memeber (12) then you have one as EXO as a whole group (1) and then you have a teaser of them as the separate groups, EXO-M and EXO-K (2). Now they are getting to the point that they are showing us the same people over and over. And they are dragging out this teaser period to the point where if EXO-M & -K don't live up to the expectations that SM are making them out to seem, they will be a flop. Just look at New. F.O, if you don't know who they are then you see my point. (FYI: New.F.O is Allkpop/Theory6's girl group. They did ridiculous teasing like saying they have danced and sang in Hollywood, and they would upload videos to youtube saying that the performances were impromtu, when it clearly looks staged. I will go on to say that the groups debut was not the one that allkpop/theory 6 made it out to be, so clearly I gave up on New.F.O for the time being until they come out with a song that will interest me.)
Well, enough of my rant, it's time to watch the teaser.

Girls' Generation on Letterman and Live With Kelly




As many of you have heard Girls' Generation is making their American debut. I think they chose the right song to do it was just that they added unneeded things and decided to do the remix, honestly I would have been happier if they did The original English version of The Boys, but that is my opinion. As expected with any k-pop group their dancing was spot on and there wasn't a single mistake. I think that they were off key because of jet lag, from experience that is a killer. I remember when I went to Germany for the first time, the first 2 days I was tired and my time was always off. But all in all the girls did an amazing job on Letterman, I have yet to see them perform on Live wih Kelly due to the fact I had class at 9.
