Big Bang - This Love
G-Dragon is amazing. Now I can’t tell who’s better, him or Tae Yang. Top is cool too. The other two, not so much haha.

G -Dragon's Heartbreaker Album
vs.
Above are 2 pictures of G-Dragon, the left being his new image for his solo album and the right was his original look.Which style do you think looks better?
G-Dragon released his solo album, Heartbreaker on Aug 18 2009. I had high expectations for this album because obviously ITS G-DRAGON, the leader of the best Kpop group, Big Bang, and the guy who received “The Most...
2NE1
Considered by many to be the female version of Big Bang :], 2NE1 did not disappoint me with their song “Fire”. The group debuted by teaming up with Big Bang to release the song “Lollipop” to promote LG Cyon cellphone and it turned out to be a big hit.

SS501
The song “Because I’m Stupid” is so good! the voice, the melody, and even the lyrics are perfect. I also read that its the theme song for JDrama “Boys Over Flowers” too. I can’t believe ss501 was capable of such music because “U R Man” had a catchy beat but it wasn’t anything special. I discovered “Because I’m Stupid” by...

1. 2PM -AGAIN AND AGAIN
I love the dance choreography for this songs MV (below!).
2. G/SO JI SUB FT CHAE DONG HA - 미련한 사랑
3. K.WILL FT MC MONG - LOVE 119

Big Bang
I’ve always preferred Epik High as far as Korean music goes; you can’t compete the song, Fan( it’s cause i’m Emo :[ ). But with Big Bang’s release of songs like Haru Haru, Look At Me, and With You, it’s hard to say which group’s better. Tbh, Seungri (the guy bending over) is seriously the fifth wheel of the group, somebody had to say it! I mean really,...

SNSD
I don’t know about talent but SNSD, also known as Girls Generation is number one when it comes to hotness. Not even the Wondergirls or Baby VOX had this much sex appeal (just watch the video below o_o).
Don’t forget to pause the music player before starting the video!

Rain
” IT CANT BE, MY OLD NEMISIS 24 YEAR OLD KOREAN RNB POP SENSATION RAIN RAAIIIIINNNNN” - Stephen Colbert
I love Rain, no homo. But seriously though, unlike the majority of korean stars, he actually didn’t resort to plastic surgery when faced with discrimination from producers who told him he had talent but was too ugly to do show business ( just like Jay Chou! :[ ). He...
2PM
This 7 man group is named 2PM because 2 PM is the “Hottest Time of the Day” (their trademark lol). Main reason I got interested in this group was the choreography for their song “Again and Again”; it also had a good beat :] But the dancing was so epic that I enjoyed watching it a couple of times; it’s really creative and original! The second song is alright;...

Wonder Girls
The Wonder Girls are on tour with the Jonas Brothers o_o this summer 2009! I can’t imagine how hard it is breaking into a foreign market and singing Korean in an audience of Jonas Brother Fans. They’re backed by JYP entertainment (Park Jin Young is legendary o_o). And on top of that, their choreography for their hit “Tell Me” has united the world!
Super Junior
This photo inaccurate because its missing 6 people. Only In Korea do we have boy bands that have 13 members haha
Here is everyone. Believe it or not, there’s actually a Chinese guy in the group. He was recruited when SM entertainment were holding auditions in China. His name is “Hank” T_T .

Secondhand Serenade - Fall For You
“Because a girl like you is impossible to find. You’re impossible to find..” -Secondhand Serenade
That line is actually the only reason I even listen to this song, it reminds me of someone. Anyways, the rest of his lyrics are inapplicable towards anything in my life or else this song would have been perfect.

TVXQ
Also known as DBSK(Dongbangshinki) or Tohoshinki. I never liked their music at all, something about their beat and voice I just can’t stand :/. Obviously, there are thousands of Korean chicks that would disagree as they are one of the most popular groups in Kpop. I guess Mirotic isn’t so bad haha

Jason Mraz - I'm Yours
This song is arguably the most epic song of 2008. How do I know? They’ve been playing this song everywhere in Davis since Feburary and I have not grown sick of it yet. It has such a easy going and pleasent melody and the lyrics are just amazing. And plus Jason Mraz seems like a pretty cool guy

Epik High
Favourite Korean group since middle school. Epik High’s beat and lyrics are amazing; they’re music videos are made with style; especially Fan. See, rap can be intelligent if the artist isn’t hood. Yes, I actually read the English translation of lyrics to make sure I’m not feeling the beat when some rapper is talking about sex “to the window..to the wall.. to the...

About Me
Hi I’m Jimmy! I’m a forth year at UC Davis majoring in Stats and Econ. I love listening to all types of music but my favourite has always been Kpop. I’ve always found Korean culture to be fascinating even though I’m from Taiwan; i’m a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, a Korean martial art, and I’ve been listening to Korean music since middle school when Boa was on...
