4minute is BACK! this time with B2ST!



It’s been a while, but 4minute is back at long last with the teaser for their comeback music video!

It’s been established with their past hits Hot Issue and Muzik that these ladies know how to rock the sexy look, and this time around, they’ve done it again with a badass street concept that I think many fans are going to love. And to amp the excitement up even further, fellow Cube Entertainment artists B2ST are playing a significant feature role in both the track and music video. Talk about getting double the eye candy!

I really do hope that B2ST will be seen together with 4minute at their comeback stage! :D

With that said, check out the MV yourself:


Totally love how they ALL look. :D

Super Junior's Boom Boom

After watching the week's music programs, i've come to really like Super Junior's song "Boom Boom". I think the song has a very catchy beat and tune. Fun to watch when performed onstage.

So I found out that the song "Boom Boom" was originally written and composed by Ray Lavender along with some other guys called "Reverse HQ" and SM Entertainment bought the rights to the song for a remake, Just like SM bought the rights for Run Devil Run which was supposed to be for ke$ha. Check out the original below:

Ray Lavender's Version


Super Junior's Version


Which one do you like better? I think both are equally great. Just that it's visually better with 10 hot boys dancing to the song... lol :P

Music Core Recap!

Yup it's time for Music Core once again! :D

Chung Lim "Face" I think he's really charming. Haven't heard from him for a while, so it's good to see him back onstage. :}


Davichi "Time, Please Stop!" I'm starting to think that the intro to the song remind me of some nursery song... Love the set by the way.


F(x) "Nu Abo" I think Amber is getting prettier...


After School "Bang!"


Lee Jung Hyun "Suspicious Man"


8eight "Farwell Is Coming" I still feel the tug at my heart everytime i hear them perform this song live...


B2ST "Special" They are in Purple today! :D This is their goodbye stage for Music Core.


2PM "Without U" The fans screaming is a little over today... just my thoughts... :[


Super Junior Comeback Stage "Boom Boom" The sound was a bit bad today... but it doesn't affect them at all! For a few seconds i was totally drawn in by Sungmin. And Heechul's ending was captivating as well! ^.^


Super Junior Comeback Stage "Bonamana" I actually really like what Leeteuk wore today... n seriously, i think Heechul gives off a very different feel today. :}


Rain "Hip Song" OK! I officially miss his plan clothes look. The long sleeve top with jeans or tank top with checkered shirt n jeans kind... what he wore today, made them (including his dancers) looked as though they had a belly when in actual truth it's ABs! OMG! D: Can his stylist do something about it?


Lee Hyori "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" Totally love what she wore today and love her entrance. She really DID looked like a Diva today. :D

Mblaq's Y!



Amidst the return of hard-hitting senior artists including their senior artist Rain, the members of MBLAQ are finally back with their comeback track Y!

As the MV teaser promised, Y is a sexy dance track with an infectious beat and repetitive hooks complete with sad lyrics and an underlying darkness. I’ve only heard this track in full a few times, and I’m already really, really liking it; how about you? (I really do :D)



We are now a few days closer to MBLAQ’s return to the stage, so stay tuned for the music video and the members’ live comeback! Make sure to support these young men by purchasing their album upon its release on May 18.

Reason to Wooyoung’s lipsyncing



Some of you would have noticed that i've mentioned in those music program recaps that 2pm's Wooyoung was lipsyncing during his parts and i was asking why. Well recently i've found the reasons to it.

It was reported that Wooyoung had been showing signs of vocal cord nodule just before their comeback.

A JYPE representative said after the show, “Since making a comeback with 2PM, Wooyoung’s condition hasn’t been at its best. Doctors have recommended that Wooyoung should not strain his vocals during this period and thus we decided to use the AR version for his part during the performance as a precaution.”

Wooyoung will however continue with his MC duties on Win Win and Inkigayo.

2PM has not been performing at 100% since making their return, as fellow member Junsu recently injured his knee and is now wearing a foot cast during performances, while hobbling around with a crutch for support.

But despite the above, 2PM has had a pretty successful comeback, having already won a triple crown on M! Countdown while winning the K-Chart for two consecutive weeks. They will be looking to win their first Mutizen this Sunday on Inkigayo.

2PM releases 3 It’s Skin CF



2PM had an endorsement deal with Hanbul Cosmetics to model their It’s Skin clinical skin solution line. 3CFs have been circulating around and boy are they all hilarious. Check it out below:

1st Version
In this 30s CF you get to see Taecyeon acting girly, Wooyoung applying sunblock on Chansung’s back, Junho and Junsu imitatating Rain. :D


2nd Version
In this CF, Taecyeon’s part at the beginning remains the same, the rest are new scenes. Chansung is now the one giving Wooyoung a rub and sharing a moment, Nichkhun gets a girl rubbing her face on his arm while Junsu and Junho have a perverted chat. (I like Junsu and Junho's part best... lol)


3rd Version
The 3rd version begins with Taecyeon trying to look cool by ripping his shirt Hulk Hogan style, but he fails to do so and runs away. It then shows Wooyoung applying sunblock on Chansung and Wooyoung complains that Chansung's deadskins are falling off. Nichkhun then receives a shoulder neck ride by 2006 Miss Korea 2nd runner-up Jang Yun Seo. It ends with Junsu and Junho talking in satoori accents while cruising in a limousine. Junho asks why is Junsu putting on the sunblock by himself and Junsu replies because he’s going farming. (I don't understand the farming part)


Here's the bonus behind the scene interview!


One Way's new MV Wrong Number!

One Way has just released their brand new MV, Wrong Number, it's really an amazing vocal track. Seriously these boys can sing! You actually hear a softer side to One Way's music. :D

Check out the MV below:



Check out their behind the scene photos at allkpop!

Daesung performs with Lee Hyori on Sketchbook



Last week we reported that Lee Hyori would perform a duet with Big Bang’s Daesung on Yoo Hee Yeol’s Sketchbook. Earlier in the week photos of the duet performance was released.







They performed the song How Did We Get which features Daesung from Hyori’s latest album. The two became close friends via their appearances on SBS Family Outing. You can check out the performance here:

How Did We Get


Interview (You can see that Hyori is totally entertained by Daesung... and Daesung really is a comedian! His dance always made me laugh nonstop)


Daesung "Cotton Candy" I think while he was singing halfway, he had some problem with his throat, can tell that he was trying to "clear" it... But it's still a splendid peroformance. :)


Lee Hyori "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" It's the first time i've seen the dancers face clearly without their "scary" makeup... lol

Although the exact concept isn’t clear yet, the quintet’s outfits plus the scenery suggest something modern & fashionable. We see the members in a variety of styles, from HyunA’s biker look to Gayoon’s chic & elegant style.

F.Cuz Chinese Version of Jiggy Revealed!

Not too long ago, it was reported that F.Cuz went taiwan for their Jiggy promotions. They've debuted over in taiwan with Jiggy and they had a collaboration with a local singer Yao Yao who also is under the same record company as F.Cuz in taiwan.

When i first heard the chinese version of the song, i felt that the original which is the korean version was nicer in comparison. Mainly because the lyrics fits better to the melody. But having seen the Mv which was released sometime ago, personally, i like the chinese mv more. Having a girl in the mv added a magical touch to it and it brings off the chinese lyrics of the song too.

I have to say that F.Cuz looked really charming here, and i know they are young, but they really look cute (in a sense more of their age). You can check out the Mv here:



Here's their original mv:


Their 2nd version to Jiggy:


So which is your favourite? :D
