Okay, I’ll admit that I know a couple of Korean pop dances here and there, but these girls bring it to a whole new level. Doing dance covers of other artists like 2NE1, SNSD, and 4minute, their latest project was After School’s “Because of You.” More »

It seems the Brown Eyed GirlsAbracadabra is still hot, evidenced by a recent video released from American Eagle. A few of their models were caught on tape doing the “saucy hip dance” and from the looks of it, they’re having fun! Way to spread the k-pop love. More »


Lust-queen and long-time veteran Hyori is out to defend her title vs. the Saturday night queen, Son Dam Bi. Son Dam Bi had just pushed up her album date to March, (from APRIL) because the girl was most likely working over time. Because of Hyori, I’ve had finkL-itis, and Son Dam Bi, Saturday Night fever. I’ve been a Bad boy. More »


If there’s anything harder for a drooling blogger to decide is which is better, Quincy by BoA, or Saturday Night by Son Dam Bi? This is WHY I’ve decided to create a new series dubbed Kpop Battle. Every so often, I’ll create battles between similar artists themes. You will then help me decide by POSTING and voting which one you like most. I didn’t design this battle to be easy in any way. Most of these battles will be ties and you, the viewers will make the tie breaker. I have many friends who are both Son Dam bi/BoA fans and they’d cut off one of their ears than to decide which one they like better. So let the battles begin! More »


Singer Jay Chou’s highly anticipated drama series entitled “Pandamen” flopped when it debuted in Taiwan last Friday. People complained that the storyline was “childish” and “convoluted.” More »

TVXQ will be lending their song “With All My Heart ~ Kimi ga Odoru, Natsu” to the Japanese movie Kimi ga Odoru, Natsu, which will open this September. The movie stars hottie Junpei Mizobata, and it’s about the Yosakoi dance festival. More »


My medical examination test results are in. There’s no hope for Awesome Blog Post Overload Syndrome (ABPOS). Every week, the best I can do, is just feature all the best stories from last week that didn’t make the main page. You are my only hope. More »


Tim Be Told is a 5 piece songwriting power house, whose sound I can’t stop comparing to a more soulful Maroon 5 or The Fray. Since their dorm room days of musical mayhem, the Charlottesville quintet has won UVA’s Battle of the Bands, sparking a booking frenzy on the college music circuit, and turning heads along the way. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to interview them! More »


Episode nine and ten were by far the best episodes of the hit Korean drama “Chuno” so far. Love, war, betrayal. Dramas have a lot of… well… drama. Keep reading for my Episode 11 predictions… More »


Today’s session of Music Video of the Day features a talented J-pop group that isn’t quite Japanese. Please welcome Monkey Majik! This group consists of 2 Canadian members, Maynard Plant and Blaise Plant (brothers), and 2 Japanese members, tax and DICK. More »


Scandinavian furniture store Ikea is releasing a new line called CHARLOTTA. It will contain designs by Åsa Ekström, whose influences come from manga. More »


CNBlue was recently featured in an Elle Girl Korea fashion editorial shoot rocking the softest of soft pastel colors. Nothing says manly quite like light pink, yellow and blue. Rarely would this ever fly in America, but in Korea — it’s not even a big deal. True story: While in Korea one summer, my friend and I kept track of the number of pink shirt on dudes sightings. Things got a little complicated when we started keeping track of the number of pink shirt on dudes WITH man purses. More »


From Girlybubble: Anyone can take a picture and claim themselves to be a photographer, but there are only a few who actually have the right to call themselves one. Photographer Ye Rin Mok is one of those few who I consider very talented. I have been a fan of hers for a few years now. Born in Korea and educated in Southern California, Mok’s photographs have been featured in magazines such as Bust, W, Nylon, and Wired. More »


From Girlybubble: Born and raised in Chicago, Lawrence Yang first started out as a computer science major, who switched to biology, and then finally finished with industrial design where he found his passion in interaction design art.

Influenced by graffiti and traditional Chinese painting, he works with ink, marker, and watercolor to communicate atmosphere and emotion, trying to create order out of chaos (& vice versa). More »


First, let’s get the facts of what went down with T-ara at a recent sports event in which they were criticized for wearing revealing clothes and saying the wrong things. More »


I was browsing through YouTube when I came across a user named yaya2pm whose videos consist of performance compilations, and they’re simply amazing. So far all of yaya2pm’s videos are, well obviously, about 2PM. More »


So judging from my previous posts, you probably think that I have something against overly happy/cute songs, right? Well, not quite. Today, my song choice is After School’s second single entitled “Diva.” More »
