So….the annual Korean Music Festival in LA is just around the corner again!!!

Sadly…all the info I have right now is:

Once again, it’s in May on a Saturday. Specifically, May 1st @ 6:30 PM at the usual location, Hollywood Bowl in California. Please google map it if you need to ^^

One thing I don’t like about it is they try to rip money off ticket buyers because…

1) tickets are expensive…ranges from ~$15-$200 USD (if i remember). It all depends on where you sit in the crowd.

2) they announce the attending artists every week (or is it every 2 weeks?! don’t remember >.<) starting from maybe February. As a result…it’s hard to refund tickets when you don’t like the attending artists.

But…the concert is quite worth it because it can be such a party, even when you’re with random people you don’t know.

A few things I DO like about the concert is…

1) you can stalk your favorite idols while they’re in town =) or even stay at the same hotel!

2) it is a dream come true…it feels like a dream being there! because that’s the closest you’ll ever get to them.

3) they ALWAYS have some of Korea’s most popular artists!!

4) it’s fun for all ages. It’s a family event since they’ve got some old school trot singers (like Eru’s dad, Tae Jin Ah!)

SO…KEEP CHECKING BACK FOR MORE UPDATES =)

while you wait for more announcements..why not predict who might show up!!

Upcoming Comebacks

SE7EN is back!!!! YAY!! 4 long years is finally over!

After spending 3-4 years in the US, Se7en is finally making a comeback this spring/summer, according to YG. Note: take YG with a grain of salt but I’m 100% sure Se7en will be making a comeback this year!

I’ve been an avid fan of Se7en for years now and being the fan I am, I actually followed his so called “US debut”. Some of you may call it a failure, but I call it the beginning. It’s been hard not only on the fans, but on Se7en as well. The pressure he’s had, the loneliness (but Park Han Byul visited him for a while), and the constant “fail to attract fans”. When YG signed with RQM, I knew the debut would be a failure and it was just sad seeing Se7en go from a superstar in Korea to a nobody and someone who people hated, because they had no patience to his see his achievements. You don’t turn into a superstar in one day, especially in the US market, which is the hardest to break into!

For his upcoming comeback, I hope to see an even better Se7en, a new side of Se7en, some crazy music, some crazy dance moves by Shaun & Aimee ^^ and an album that is better than the already awesome ones he’s had! Oh..and maybe a Wahjoh Part 3 (aka Come Back to Me Pt. 3)! I also hope he includes the songs he had “unofficially” released for his US debut…aka Money Can’t Buy Me Love, Scandalous, You’ve Got Me & La La La English version!!

______________________________________________________________________________________

Rain is also set to make a comeback this April!

Rain also failed to make a boom in the US music industry but, he did kinda make his name in Hollywood, despite low ratings in the movies he’s starred in (Speed Racer & Ninja Assassin). Honestly, I wasn’t quite a fan of his but, I did like some of his songs and the I’m Coming album!

He will be releasing a mini album in April and then a special album in October.

______________________________________________________________________________________

With Sunmi gone and Hyerim in, Wonder Girls are gonna continue on with their international fame. The girls will be releasing a new album in April in the US but will use it to help promote them in Korea, China and the US.

It’s sad to see Sunmi gone, but we all need to move on. It’s still odd to see Hyerim in the group and it feels like something is missing when I don’t see Sunmi with them =(

______________________________________________________________________________________

Epik High will be coming out with a new album on March 9th, titled Epilogue! Don’t take the album title too seriously…it’s not really the end of Epik High…I think it’s more like the end of a chapter in their life and the start of a new one, since DJ Tukutz will be back in 2011 and Tablo’s wifewill be giving birth soon…hopefully next month or in April!

_______________________________________________________________________________________

Hyori’s comeback has been pushed back to March, instead of this month.

BoA has also made a comeback…but in the Japanese music scene, with her 7th album, Identity.

2NE1 & Big Bang all released CF songs. 2NE1 released “Try to be Like Me” and Big Bang released “Lollipop 2″

4Minute’s collab with US singer, Amerie has been released too. Here’s a sneak preview before the album is released!


Sunmi leaves WG and new member, Lim

OMG!! I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS!!!

i just read this from twitter and WonderGirlsWorld.com. Posted this right after I read it.

JYP Entertainment has announced that Mimi from the Wonder Girls has decided
to postpone her musical career to pursue an academic career.

Mimi, the rest of the Wonder Girls members, her family, and JYP Entertainment
have collectively decided to postpone her musical career for the time being.

JYP Entertainment said, “Mimi had a truly memorable, once in a lifetime
experience while living in the U.S. and touring over 50 cities. We support her
decision to pursue an academic career at this time. We will also support Mimi if
she chooses to return to singing after her academics are complete. In the
meantime, she plans to frequent JYP facilities and continue her dance and vocal
classes.”

Mimi will remain with the Wonder Girls in the U.S., continuing with any scheduled
performances and activities until the end of February. As of March, she will return
to Korea and prepare to focus on her studies. JYP has named 17 year old Lim as
the newest member to the quintet.
Lim has gone through extensive training at the
JYP Academy for three years and is fluent in four languages: English, Korean,
Mandarin and Cantonese.


What’s up?…Ketchup!

yeah…i know that was a lame title…hahaha! But it’s almost 1AM and my head hurts. I’ve been shoving my face into notes and textbooks for the past week…and spent more time at the library then at home…school sucks! One more final and I am done! After Tuesday, everything will be back to normal on this blog ^^

Anyways, this post is just a catch up post for this week and maybe even last week…lol.

Oh yeah…lyrics are coming soon ^^

Wonder Girls on So You Think You Can Dance

Yup, the Wonder Girls were on it! And if you missed it…here’s a video of the performance!

I thought the performance was missing something…a spark, maybe?! I thought it could have been better. Some of it sounded like it was lip-synced…a bit disappointed in that. I love the girls and everything…but I feel this US debut of theirs kinda threw me off…seems like America’s not quite ready for them and the last thing I want is them being viewed as the the “Nobody” girls, “the girls from Jo Bro’s concerts” or even a Disney affiliation, since they were kinda managed by Papa Jo during the concert tour.

_______________________________________________

Seo In Young & Park Jung Ah are leaving Jewelry!

Yup. Title says it all. I’m so sad! They are the only two that I like in Jewelry and are the only members from the “original Jewelry” from way back in history.

Koyote’s BaekGa has brain tumor!

BaekGa was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor. At first, he thought it was the after effects of an accident but when he went to go get his head checked, it was a brain tumor T___T  Kim Jong Min is still in the military.

Bloody Note #2

MBLAQ member, Lee Joon, received a bloody note from a crazy fan, who apparently slit her wrists, before using it to write the note. The note said “Lee Chang Sun (his real name), don’t forget me. You are my everything to me. I love you. Remember that. XX.” This is the second a fan has sent in creepy like that, with the first being unlucky Taecyeon of 2PM. For those unaware, Taec’s note consisted of period blood and scatter pubes. Gross, eh?! Fans these days get crazier and crazier. And I wonder who should be blamed for this?! The big music chaebol’s of Korea or what?!

Super Junior is out with a “new” music video

SuJu is out with a new music for their hit song, Sorry Sorry. It was filmed for their concert. It’s very classy but it doesn’t have much of a plot and the song is a LOT slower. Enjoy!
