Oddness/Weirdness

I saw the teaser for the group Phantom's first single, "Hole In Your Face" last week and my first reaction was shock.  I'll admit I'm not really fazed by gore or violence in movies or tv but this teaser was definitely a HUGE surprise.  Kpop prides itself on being more innocent and less sexy than American pop so for a Kpop group to debut with this sort of teaser was quite a call for attention.  They definitely have my attention.   Here's the teaser:  There was, of course, a general outcry so they decided to release a clean version:

3 for one! I couldn't resist posting both Dumbfoundead, Aziatix  and IAMMEDIC.  How could I when all 3 songs are so good?  They're also totally different so there's something for everyone.   Plus there's the added bonus of Eddie Shin.  :wipes drool: Dumbfoundead- Are We There Yet Source: dumbfoundead Aziatix- Slippin' Away Source: TheAziatix IAMMEDIC- Chasing Phantoms Source: IAMMEDICTV Oh what the heck...

First circulated pic of Rain after he is officially done with boot camp.  All I have to say is "Awwww!!" Source: hongcube @ twitter via @yfrog There's his dad all the way to the right. Edited to add: Source: christianjeong @ twitter Edited to add: Source: riannejade @ twitter You can tell how much hard work he put into boot camp training by the amount of weight he lost.  I'm sure I'm not the only Rain fan that's super proud of him.  Rain fighting!

Saw this video last night and promptly decided it's the cutest thing ever.  I love the '60s vibe going on with the Bob Fosse-ish choreography, the black and white set and the extra cute dresses with fur trim. The choreography is adorable and easy to do and I expect to see a plethora of copycat fan videos all over You Tube. The song is great too, and goes hand-in-hand with that '60s vibe... definitely makes me think of  Martha and the Vandellas .  The rap is even good and goes really well with the song, which I was surprised about.  Everything about it puts a big smile on my face.  Great job, JYP and Wonder Girls!
