What the Bak: B1A4= Be the One All for one??!

Yeah, I don’t get it either.

 

WM Entertainment’s attempt at creating the next boy version of 2NE1 is really a major facepalm-inducing failure. I mean, what the heck is a Be-One-A-Four?!!

 

But, they are RIDICULOUSLY ADORABLE, I’ll give them that.

 

Here’s the photo 4-1-1 on the newbie boy group B1A4 (the skinny on these skinny boys, if you will):

 

Okay, am I reading too far into this acronym/KPOP naming FAIL or should there be another ’1′ after the ’4′?!! Why couldn’t they have just been called Cute Kids?! Or Noona Killers?!! Seriously though- I want to hang their maknae Gongchan from my cell phone as a charm.

Two interesting things to note about the group (and further discussion of their awful name):

1) They are the first KPOP idol group to be introduced to the world via webtoon:

and 2) the name also has to do with the fact that 4 members have A-type blood and one member has B-type blood. Ahh Asians and their blood-typing. If anyone cares, I’m O positive!

    I hate their name and the rationale behind the name, but GDI these boys are so freaking presh. I just saw their music video, and I’m sold. :)

    I agree with the previous comment. Though their group name is way too “out there” ( I mean, f(x) also has a ridiculous meaning to it ) the music video and the quality of their title track got me sold. It’s so different yet so familiar. I’m an immediate fan and they haven’t even debuted yet!

    I beginning to think that kpop is becoming a trend. Do we realy think that we are gonna listen to kpop in 5 years whit al those new groups debuting.

    Shoot me but I like their song, their look, and their debut comic.

    Cutie boys you’ve got this noona’s support.
