[Guest Post] Did You Just Ask Why I Love K-Pop? A Dissertation

I'm back!   But only kind of today because my first foray back into blogging is a guest post.  Did I hear someone say "But whyyyy??" from here?  Well, I happen to think you'll like this one a lot.  This post is by Kat , Associate Writer extraordinaire for Korea.com , who I met in the comments of this here blog and promptly befriended.  We bonded over SHINee belts... don't ask.  Anyway, Kat is here to give you an in depth view into why we all like Kpop and also to give you a way to explain it to those pesky non-Kpop lovers. Did You Just Ask Why I Love K-Pop? Others: You like K-Pop? What, like that Sigh guy?" Me: Yeah! Others: But I’m so sick of hearing that gang -nam song, such a one-hit wonder. Me: Actually Psy has been a significant figure in the Korean music industry for over 12 years now and he has produced a lot of really fantastic music during that time… Nope, I’ve lost them. I guess it's understandable how people associate K-Pop to

When Kpop And My TV Watching Habits Collide: 2NE1 on SYTYCD

Last night I was watching one of my favorite shows ever, So You Think You Can Dance , when dancer Mark Kanemura (one of Lady Gaga 's main backup dancers) decided to give his choreography some  2NE1 fierceness.  That's right, there was 2NE1 on national tv in the U.S. last night!  :insert fangirling gif here:

So YG Entertainment decided not to troll us for once because they released 2NE1 's " Do You Love Me " on time.  Can you imagine?  The song is pretty good, I must say, and the choreography is cute.  Let's watch:

2NE1 Releases The Cutest Teasers Ever For "Do You Love Me"

Continuing on with their a-new-song-every-month strategy, 2NE1 is about to drop another one August 7th!  This one's called " Do You Love Me " and it's got the cutest teasers in the world of Kpop mv teasers.

CL Is A Bad Mama Jama On Inkigayo + A Revealing Interview

Love CL 's " The Baddest Female " or hate it, you have to admit the girl can perform the hell out of a song.  She did just that on her first solo Inkigayo comeback stage, which took place on June 2nd, and if you've watched it already, you should watch it again:

2NE1's CL Is Going Solo For A Bit, What Do You Think?

The big YG Entertainment reveal has been made and the huge surprise seems to be that CL is coming out with a solo album.  Cue celebratory music for CL and a game show buzzer sound for 2NE1 .  I'm shocked, because as some of you might remember, CL was talking about this in February and mentioned that she would be coming out with her solo album after 2NE1 was done with their own promotions.   As you can tell, we've been trolled but whatever... This is just as exciting.  Read on for more info.

The Melon Music Awards 2012 Performances: The Best and The Meh

The 2012 Melon Music Awards happened earlier this morning for me, last night for many of you.  I don't know about you, but I'm thinking it was a damned sight better than the MAMA's. I'm bringing you my thoughts on the best performances and the not-so-good... feel free to agree or disagree with me in the comments like you did last time , but do remember that we all have different opinions.
