G-Dragon's Madcap "CRAYON" Style Part 2

So as I said in my long ass part 1 of G-Dragon's "CRAYON" style post , I have been looking for the tropical bird covered pants that GD wore in the mv.  Commenters have asked and I finally found them.

Here's some G-Dragon looking cute as ever while performing "CRAYON" on Inkigayo today.  Watch quickly before it gets deleted!

Happy Chuseok! Block B's Zico Releases "Battle Royal" as a Surprise Thanksgiving Gift

Not that long ago, I mentioned on here that I was waiting with baited breath for a Block B comeback.  Well this is even better, imho (or almost as good, depending on your biases):  Today Block B's Zico released a surprise Chuseok  (Korean Thanksgiving) gift of a song called "Battle Royal".  Listen below...

Video of the Day #2: SHINee's "Dazzling Girl" Short Ver. PV

I cannot believe I almost forgot to post this mv.  Can you imagine?  How could I forget about the release of the short version of SHINee's "Dazzling Girl" pv?  I'm shaking my head at myself right now.  

Video of the Day: The Koxx's "Love Dance"

I'm interrupting my regularly scheduled programming to spazz over an mv that is not your typical Kpop.  This mv and song skews more towards alternative than anything else I've featured on this blog.  This song is actually a lot closer to the type of music I mainly listened to, before Kpop took over my life.  The band is called The Koxx and the song is "Love Dance".  Check it out:

SHINee's Onew for Singles Magazine October 2012 Issue + Eng Trans

I'm about a week late with posting this beautifully shot layout of SHINee's Onew from Singles magazine's October 2012 issue but oh well... I'm posting it anyway.  How could I not?  He looks lovely here.  Enjoy the pics and make sure to read the interview.  I think it serves to highlight just a fraction of Onew's loneliness, even in the midst of a crowd, and I think you will too.

G-Dragon for Commons&Sense Man Magazine

G-Dragon will be featured on (and in) the upcoming issue of Japanese fashion magazine commons&sense man, or issue # 13 as they call it.  Check out the gorgeous pics they put up on their site.

Videos of the Day: TVXQ!'s "Catch Me" MV + Dance Practice

As I mentioned in my previous post, I had flu-like symptoms on Saturday and now it's Thursday and I'm just starting to feel a bit better.  I ended up with what I thought was a cold/flu but ended up being bronchitis, so forgive me for not blogging sooner.  I'm back though... and I missed so much stuff, of course.  If you're away from the Kpop world, a few days seems like a year, doesn't it?  Or maybe that's just me. I'm still going to talk about some songs that came out earlier this week, namely TVXQ! and their new comeback mv, "Catch Me".

G-Dragon's "Crayon" MV Style Part 1

Hello again, my friends.  It's been a busy week that ended yesterday with me thinking I'd "take a nap" at around 6:30 pm and then wake up to do some blogging.  I ended up waking up today at 9:00 am with flu-like symptoms.  Not fun at all. So now I'm finally gonna post up my G-Dragon "Crayon" fashion post pt. 1.  It's only part 1 because I'm still looking for many of the other pieces from the mv, ESPECIALLY the pants he wears here and on his Inkigayo performances.  Many of the items worn in this mv seem to be limited edition so it's been an interesting week.  I've even gotten some requests for those pants...  How cool is that?  Just so you know, I've been looking for those pants since I first saw the "Crayon" mv and I WILL find them, dammit.  Lol... anyway... on with the fashion:

G-Dragon Blings It Out Like A Pimp At The Ambush x G-Dragon Launch Party + More

So sorry I've been away for the past few days but it couldn't be helped.  I was working my bootie off and was too tired to blog, even if it was about Kpop.  I'll be back tomorrow with more posts but I realized after I saw these pics that I had to post them up. In case you hadn't heard yet, G-Dragon collaborated with the brand Ambush to make a few limited edition jewelry pieces to be sold at the My Boon store in Korea.  He attended the Ambush x G-Dragon launch party, which was held at the My Boon store on September 20th, and you just have to see what he wore.

G-Dragon's 1st Mini Album COUNTDOWN LIVE + Countdown Fashion

G-Dragon and YG Entertainment decided to post what they call a rerun of G-Dragon's 1st mini album countdown show.  It was shown on Naver Music on the 14th, leading up to the release of his album and now they've posted it with English subs.  How nice!  Take a look:

4Minute's Hyuna for Nylon Magazine September '12

I don't talk about Kpop girls or girl groups on here very often, but this pictorial from Nylon magazine Korea of 4Minute's Hyuna really caught my eye.  I really like the styling (not to wear, just to look at) and the starkness of the photos, which makes the outfits and Hyuna's beauty stand out.

Members of B1A4, ZE-A and A-JAX for Vogue Girl's September Issue

Vogue Girl Korea brought together B1A4's Cnu, A-JAX's Jae Hyung and ZE-A's Hyung Sik for their September issue and I'm loving the futuristic-retro feel of this editorial.  I know that sounds odd, but that's what it calls to mind.  It makes me think of '50s greasers that were time traveled into 2015.  Check it out:

SHINee Gives Us A "Dazzling Girl" Group Teaser & A Song Preview

I'm not sure what I think about this whole SHINee "Dazzling Girl" thing after listening to this preview. The song seems meh to me but hey, it's early times. It could sound totally different later. I do like the group teaser though.  Check out the group teaser that was released on SHINee's official Japanese site and the preview that was heard in the cf for Japanese jewelry brand Maki below:

Get Kpop Fashionated: Erika Breaks Down G-Dragon's "That XX" MV Fashion

I promised I'd give you some G-Dragon " That XX " fashion , and here it is: As you probably already know, my most recent fashion obsession is  G-Dragon .  I’ve been fascinated by this fashion chameleon and fashionisto for awhile now, but he seems to have taken himself to a new level in the past year.  GD is, of course, obsessed with designer goods from the obvious major designers like Chanel and Givenchy.  He’s also supremely interested in somewhat lesser known (but equally as famous) avant garde designers like Junn. J and Commes Des Garcons , which shows in his willingness to wear a man-skirt or women’s clothing,  and to combine pieces in such unique ways. GD’s “ One of a Kind ” and “ That XX ” videos are so chock full of mostly high/some low fashion goodness that I felt compelled to track down the best outfits and dissect them.  Here’s what I found so far:
