Oddness/Weirdness

Ok I know I say this (almost) every   time  a B.A.P song and mv is released but " One Shot " is definitely THE most epic B.A.P song (and mv) ever!

I finally convinced my friend Stormy of  UnderTheRadar! to write a new opinion piece , so it's time for Another Odd Opinion about B.A.P 's  Live on Earth Seoul concerts that took place on February 23 and 24.  Recently, we were discussing whether B.A.P had enough material and experience to throw a concert and, well... you'll see.  Check out Stormy's previous odd opinion here and be sure to leave us your thoughts on this one in the comments below.

TS Entertainment announced yesterday that their not-so-rookie-anymore super group, B.A.P, would be staging a large scale comeback on June 28th with their 3rd mini album.  They were recently caught filming an mv in Las Vegas and it's been revealed that they'll be releasing and promoting 3 songs from the new album.  What??! B.A.P's 1st teaser was released today.

TS Entertainment has just released B.A.P 's newest single with accompanying mv, "Rain Sound" , and I honestly don't know what to feel.  My brain is pretty much stuck on, "Hmm..." right now.  Watch below:

The mv for B.A.P 's new song, " Badman " was released today and I am sad to say that I am so disappointed in this video and this song.  Is this why they went to Detroit??  Jeezzzzz.  I kind of don't even know what to say, but I'll come up with something, I'm sure.

I know a week or two has passed since B.A.P's "Hurricane" mv and INFINITE's "Destiny" mv were released, but I have been wanting to talk about both of these videos for the longest time.  Normally I'd have moved on by now but B.A.P and INFINITE are my boys!  They're farther down on my bias list but they're still up there, ya know.  I like them a lot, so this post had to happen in some way, shape or form.

Well look what we have here!   B.A.P is all set to release yet ANOTHER mini album, so we've been graced with Himchan and Bang Yong Guk 's dark and extra dramatic photo teasers.  Don't these guys need a mini break first??

It is currently the time of year when every kind of site, magazine, radio station, etc., starts making their "Top Whatever of 2012" lists and I wanted to jump in on that bandwagon with my First Annual Top 10 Songs of the Year list.  Of course I have to do it my way, and that entails me asking my friends for their help. My friends and I have been talking about Kpop music and music videos all year, so they're as qualified as I am to make judgements and pronouncements.  In other words, not qualified at all, but hey, that hasn't stopped us yet! Joining me will be MyMusicRadar! aka Stormy to her friends.  Like me, Stormy also runs a Kpop blog and Tumblr  and has written for this site before ; I couldn't have done this post without her.  Also joining us (for contrast) is Dasiey28, an avid Kpop enthusiast and Kdrama watcher extraordinaire.  If you ever need to find any Kpop mv or need to know where to watch a Kdrama, ask and she shall find.  She is the Kpop-finding

So B.A.P., short for Best Absolute Perfect, just debuted and posted their new mv, "Warrior", up on YouTube yesterday.  Can I just say how much I like this song?  What a great way to debut.  Their agency, TS Entertainment, didn't need to make 30248394 teasers (I'm side eyeing another well known entertainment agency that-shall-not be-named as I'm writing this).  Just release a good song with a good video and sit back and reap the benefits.

After teasing us over and over , B.A.P finally released their "No Mercy" mv and mini album today. Watch it in full HD for the best possible stank face sightings and crotch grabbings.

B.A.P is about to drop their 1st Mini album, "No Mercy", this week (supposedly July 19th) and they've decided to tease us by releasing some album jacket pics of Bang Yong Guk, Young Jae and Zelo for our viewing pleasure.

B.A.P released more teasers for their "No Mercy" mv today and I have some burning questions... Namely, where is this party and why am I not invited?

I just had to post this.  Here's B.A.P. getting it in with "No Mercy" on the July 19 M! Countdown. Besides the fact that I can't with Himchan's crazy eyes and that there was some sharpness in some singing voices, I thought it was fun as hell.  I'm particularly fond of the fact that they get to dress well in this round of promotions, instead of looking like rejects from the so-not-cool-anymore Ed Hardy factory.  Also, every time I see B.A.P perform, I'm still shocked that Zelo is only 15.  He performs with the charisma of a 22 yr old.

As it stands this year over 30 rookie Kpop groups have debuted and only a very few have even made it to the public consciousness.  A couple of them have managed to catch my eye in the past few weeks, and those two would be  LC9  and Bangtan Boys .  The why of it lies solely in their debut music videos.  The two groups have surprised me with their brash, bold and take-no-prisoner videos and I'm pretty hard pressed to pick a favorite.  So... why not have them battle it out?

I've been as interested as the next person in B.A.P.'s comeback.  I thought the teaser images that have been released so far were pretty cool and all... until today when Bang Yong Guk and Himchan's teaser was released.   I laid my eyes on Bang Yong Guk  and was all: Yeahh... pretty much.

B.A.P's new mv, POWER, came out today and let me just say that it is damned good.  These are some newbies to watch out for because I think they'll really be going strong in this business for years to come.

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.

Block B held their first " Nillini Mambo " comeback stage earlier today on M! Countdown and they were taking names and snatching wigs.

I knew I had to write about these EXO MAMA videos as soon as I saw them. 

For the K-pop elite, Seoul Fashion Week can be a place to see and be seen and this spring is no exception. We know SHINee 's Key is a regular at Seoul Fashion Week (click here for Key and others at last spring's F/W shows), but this time Minho and Taemin also came out to play. Key started out the festivities by hitting up two shows.  First he attended the Kim Seo Ryong Homme show, in which big name model/actor Kim Woobin (of " School 2013 " fame) walked the runway.
