Second Taste of 2NE1
And it pretty much tastes the same as the debut. The fangirls showed up once again to support their rookies with the chanting and screaming that has become legendary to international Kpopers. I can understand their excitement. Due to the recent suicide of former Korean president Roh Moo hyun as well as YG Entertainment‘s “one performance per [...]
G-Dragon Should Really Change His Name to G-Chameleon
Even though his name (Jiyong) technically means dragon, Big Bang’s leader and roller coaster of fashion, G-Dragon, shares more in common with the color-changing little lizard than the mythical creature of lore. Granted, G-Dragon has been a pretty legendary creature as of late, at least in terms of fashion decisions; though not always in a [...]
The Wonder Girls have Chinese SISTERS
Yes in no less than two years after their debut, it is the second coming of Wonder Girls. Apparently, JYP China has been working over time prepping the Chinese version of the Wonder Girls, named “Sisters”, for their official debut. The group was introduced by JYP’s ballad quartet 2AM while they were doing promotions for their [...]

Kim Bum and Kim KiBum: Domestic Partners in the Land of Oz?
Some stills from the new CF for the LG OZ Generation starring “renaissance man” actor Kim Bum and ever absent SUJU member (and I guess actor in his own right) Kim KiBum, have been released. Seeing as how I have not seen the CF and have no clue as to its “concept” or back story [...]
Does Jaejoong Like it?
‘Cause he may have put a ring on it. “It” being SNSD’s Jessica’s finger, I mean. I remember seeing this story make the rounds a couple of months ago, and now it seems it’s cropped up again. Netizens have unearthed more “proof” that JaeJoong from Dong Bang Shin Ki and Jessica from Seo Nyeo Shi [...]
“Star Trek” Review: Sign Me Up for Starfleet ASAP!
I was never a big fan of Star Trek. It was before my time, you know? (And a little, let’s be honest-a lot, strange.) Having said that and having JUST seen it, I say: slap some Vulcan ears on me, call me a Trekkie in Klingon and beam me aboard, Scotty! The movie was pure, unadulterated [...]
SUJU and SNSD Members Lying Through Their (Fake) Noses and Out Their You-Know-Whats
Members of Kpop idol groups Super Junior and Girls’ Generation have been seen recently adorning ads promoting blood donation. Although they are all pretending to be good people, seeing as how most guidelines set the minimum weight requirement for blood donation at 110 pounds, it is obvious that most of them are lying since they all weigh [...]
