K-Pop stars flocked to the Seoul Olympic Park Stadium on November 24th to attend the ‘2011 Melon Music Awards‘.

The awards show, which began in 2009 and is now entering its 3rd year, established itself as one of the big four music awards ceremonies in South Korea, alongside the Mnet Asian Music Awards, Golden Disk Awards, and Seoul Music Awards.

Hosted by Super Junior’s Leeteuk, actress Park Shin Hye and B2ST‘s Doojoon, the awards ceremony is famed for calculating ONLY digital sales (80%) and online votes (20%) on Melon.com; the final tally of those two factors will produce the winners in the various categories.

Can you guess all the dance moves in this chart?

How well do you know K-pop dance moves? Can you tell what dance it is simply by ONE move? Are you that much of an epic fangirl or boy? Am I asking too many questions?! Well check out this chart below; there are 30 different dancing memes, and all you need to do is show off how epic of a K-pop fan you are by naming the group and song these dances belong to. I went ahead and played the game myself and couldn’t figure out a few of them (-_-). I’m a failure!

Take a look at the chart and write all your guesses down. When you’re done, scroll to the bottom and see if you and I got the same answers, and if you were able to figure out the ones I couldn’t!

B2ST’s Junhyung Joins Instagram

Whether you’re a fan of Monstar or a B2UTY, rejoice in the knowledge that you’ll now be getting to see a lot more Junhyung, as the idol has just opened an Instagram account. Although fellow B2ST member Yoseob already has an account, fans of the group have been anxiously waiting for the group’s rapper to create one.

Junhyung seems to have wasted no time, as he’s already uploaded quite a few pics — including the above selfie, and a snapshot of his adorable cats.

If you haven’t started following Junhyung yet, his handle is “bigbadboii”. Enjoy!



VIDEO: Teaser of New Music Drama Starring B2ST’s Yong Jun Hyung

monstar-002

Mnet’s first music drama Monstar tells the story of a hot-tempered idol star, Yoon Sul Chan, who was forced to go back into school after causing a ruckus and making a bad name for himself. While trying to keep himself out of trouble, B2ST’s Yong Jun Hyung, who will be playing the part of Yoon Sul Chan, unintentionally joins the music club at the school, named Monstar. There, he meets a girl named Min Sae Yi, played by Ha Yeon Soo, who only finds joy when playing music. Min Sae Yi transferred from New Zealand, where her duties were to herd the sheep.

monstar-003

Coincidentally, in the music club Monstar, all the members have been through some kind of trouble in the past and used music as a method of healing. The drama focuses on depicting a heartfelt story about a group of friends in high school who achieve their dreams, love, and friendship through music.

monstar-004

Monstar will air on tvN and Mnet on May 17th.

Check out their teaser footage below:

KARA’s Goo Hara and BEAST’s Junhyung Are Back on the Market

Goo Hara and Junhyung

And so another heart breaks. Goo Hara, who you all know as the super cute president’s daughter in City Hunter, had been dating B2ST/BEAST lead rapper Junhyung since 2011. Netizens first realized something wasn’t right when they noticed the two of them had unfollowed each other on Twitter. Both of their agencies have confirmed that the two of them are no longer dating because of scheduling conflicts.

Junhyung and Goo Hara

Usually I never believe the scheduling conflict reason, but in this case it just might be true. Goo Hara is a member of the Idol girl group KARA, who happens to not only be popular in South Korea, but also extremely popular in Japan. Because of their popularity the group is always promoting over in Japan, and with B2ST/BEAST’s own crazy schedule, not finding the time to see each other is a very believable reason for the breakup.

Who finds Hara and Junhyung’s breakup sad? Who is secretly thrilled the two of them are back on the market?!

Lee Seung Gi Chosen as Number One “Candy Boy” for White Day

leeseunggi2

Lee Seung Gi was chosen as THE celebrity that women want to receive candy from on White Day.

Women ages 10 to 20 answered the question, “On White Day, which male celebrity would you want to receive candies from?” for a recent online poll. Out of the 337 women who participated in the survey, 142 of the votes went to none other than Lee Seung Gi and his prince-like charms. Representatives of the survey analyzed the results, saying that Lee Seung Gi has a very clean image and a smile that leaves a strong friendly impression. They commented, “There is no women who would reject candies from a man with a great smile.”

Meanwhile, Lee Ki Kwang of B2ST placed 2nd with 97 votes and Kim Soo Hyun came in close third with 94 votes.

Which celebrity would you like to receive White Day candies from?

Top 10 Best of the Worst K-POP Outfits

Sometimes K-POP is awesome when it comes to fashion inspiration, but then there are those times where you’re just like “what the eff, Taemin?! Why are you wearing that?! (o_0)” This is my list of what I feel are some of the worst stage outfits ever created. Only one girl group made it on the list and that’s because none of the girl groups really dress badly or over the top.

10.

SHINee member Taemin

You know those girls who hold the flag that signals “go” at race car events?

Taemin

Taemin is hot, but there is just so much about this outfit that I can’t even handle. Taemin 2

9.

Boyfriend

In a world where the Easter Bunny has elves.

Boyfriend

8.

B1A4 Leader, Jinyoung

This photo makes me laugh every time. I love how they matched the shoes with that creature of a hat too.

Jinyoung

7.

BIGBANG Leader, G Dragon

That furry Ninja Turtle shell and hair track.

6.

SHINee

Because girls totally wanted their outfits in this music video. (o_0)

Yoon Doo Joon and Jang Hyuk Face-Off in IRIS 2

Yoon_Doo_Joon_Jang_Hyuk_IRIS_2

IRIS 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to IRIS that’s coming out in a couple of weeks. If you’re not highly anticipating it, well, am. That’s because I’ve been following this entire franchise faithfully, whether I liked it or not, and which includes ATHENA. IRIS 2 has a lot of elements to it that make it tedious, especially after two previous dramas that were pretty much similar in plot, but had a different cast. What makes this one unique though is that it’s a direct sequel to IRIS, which means we’ll see some of our favorite characters reappearing (Baek San for the win!). It also boasts an impressive pedigree cast - Lee Da Hae, Jang Hyuk, Lee Bum Soo, Kim Young Chul, and more – that I fear will be sorely under-appreciated and sacrificed for the sake of explosions and action. But this drama also has plenty of idol stars, including Lee Joon of MBLAQ and Yoon Doo Joon of B2ST. Both Lee Joon and Yoon Doo Joon play NSS agents, but let’s focus on Yoon Doo Joon a bit. He is the perfect NSS agent (of course) and ends up in a love triangle with Lee Da Hae and Jang Hyuk. Say whut!?

If we know our “Taewon Entertainment Spy Franchise” well, we know that the top two billed stars (meaning Lee Da Hae and Jang Hyuk) will end up together. Inexplicably they will fall in love because both actors have had history in being paired together in Robbers and Chuno – so why not for a third go-around? Of course there is a third wheel (as always) but why must it be Doo Joon?! How can you compare an idol actor like him next to hunky Jang Hyuk!?

I protest! Give me someone who is a better match to really go toe to toe with Jang Hyuk so that they can really battle for Lee Da Hae’s love! Don’t make it so easy for Jang Hyuk to trample all over Yoon Doo Joon! Or – you know what, I challenge Yoon Doo Joon to prove to me that he’s a force to be reckoned with. Ha! I bet that’ll be a near impossible feat!

I think I’m just bitter because all I really want is Kim So Yeon to just headline her own spy drama already.

You can catch IRIS 2 on DramaFever on February 14, 2013.

K-Pop All-Stars Unite For Charity

K-pop all-stars have united to bring you holiday treats for your ears and for charity this holiday season! As per tradition, the K-pop world gives us the SBS Gayo Daejun, which is the end-of-year broadcast special in South Korea where celebrities come together for special performances and collaborations. This year there are four groups—two male and two female—working in the theme of “The Color Of K-Pop.”

The first group is Dazzling Red with “This Person.” The group features HyunA, After School’s Nana, SISTAR’s Hyorin, KARA’s Nicole and Secret’s Hyosung. The track was produced by the Brave Brothers, who traded in their usual Euro-pop production for a slinky, steamy track:

The second group is Dramatic Blue which consists of B2ST’s Yo Seob, 2AM’S Jo Kown, INFINITE’s Woohyun, TEEN TOP’s Niel and MBLAQ’s G.O. Their track “Tearfully Beautiful” is produced by Sweetune, the same producer responsible for Billboard’s No. 1 K-pop song of the year, INFINITE’s “The Chaser”:

The second male group is Dynamic Black who created the most interesting track with “Yesterday.” TEEN TOP’s L.Joe, B2ST’s Kikwang, INFINITE’s Hoya, MBLAQ’s Lee Joon, and 2AM’s Jinwoon open the track with a ballad that unexpectedly turns into an electronic track, courtesy of hitmaker Shinsadong Tiger (T-ara’s “Lovey Dovey” and 4minute’s “Volume Up”):

Last but not least, the Mystic White group works with a pure and cute concept for their track “Mermaid Princess.” The track was created by After School’s Lizzy, KARA’s Jiyoung, 4minute’s Gayoon, SISTAR’s Bora, and Secret’s Sunhwa. The track was produced by Kim Do Hoon, who may be the least-known producer participating:

Which Idol Do the People of Korea Want to Raise?

This has seriously got to be one of the funniest polls ever. With the popularity of A Werewolf Boy starring Song Joong Ki, people at Lotte Department store in Korea were asked which Korean idol people would most want to “raise.” Voters had a bunch of idols to choose from, including SHINee’s Taemin, and B2ST/BEAST’s Lee Gi Kwang. But after the votes were in, the idol the people most wanted to raise was none other than our favorite Flower Boy Band member L!

So I ask you all: If you could raise any actor or actress, who would it be?
