Oddness/Weirdness

Is it just me or does Jo Kwon's teasers for his solo album, "I'm Da One" (sigh... Really Jo Kwon??), look a lot like Xia Junsu's?

Well apparently the wait is over.  Big Bang FINALLY released U.S. tour dates for their "Alive Tour 2012" the other day. YG Entertainment confirmed that they were going to perform in Los Angeles at the Honda Center on November 3rd and in New Jersey on November 9th in Newark's Prudential Center.  

It's been AGES since I blogged about Shinee!  Okay... okay... more like a few weeks.  I'm a bit of an exaggerater... I know. For the people that think that Shinee hasn't been doing anything because they weren't performing in Korea, you are sadly mistaken.  They've been busy, busy boys.  The Shinee guys have been all over Japan for their Shinee World tour, most recently for four days in Tokyo, back to Korea, in Taiwan for another SMTOWN concert, back to Korea, back to Japan, etc.  Key completed his turn as FranKey in the musical "Catch Me if You Can" in Korea.  Amazingly enough, this all took place at the last few days of May and in the first half of June.  It's enough to make me tired and I'm not even there.  I often think SMentertainment works them wayyy too hard, but I won't go into that in this post.

So I've decided (finally) to change this blog up a bit.  I'll continue to post about Kpop related stuff here; this will, of course, include Kpop fashion.  I'll be blogging about all other types of fashion on a new site: OddnessWeirdnessFashion .  You can access that, if you so choose, by the link at the top of this blog. I realized I needed to change the blog after having more than a few people suggest that I should have 2 separate pages for fashion and Kpop.  There are definitely people that just want to come here to read about Kpop; there are also the people that just want to read about fashion.  The majority of people who come to this blog are Kpop fans so I'm definitely not changing that dynamic. The good thing about this is that I'll be able to focus more on Kpop related stuff and not feel guilty when I don't post something about fashion here.  Yay for that!  Phew... The reason why I went with Tumblr for my fashion blog is that, to tell you the tr

SM Entertainment released f(x)'s Electric Shock mv today and I'm excited for f(x) but underwhelmed by this mv.

Some eye candy for ya: Kim Bum in Men's Uno China June edition

f(x) is releasing "Electric Shock" on June 10th through various music websites and the physical album will hit stores on June 13.  The album will consist of 6 tracks, including the title track "Electric Shock". I'm enthused about f(x)'s comeback even though, based off of their teaser medley, I'm not sure if I'll like all the songs.  F(x) usually comes back with a cute song/choreo so we'll wait and see. What are your thoughts on the medley and the album concept?  The whole animal thing is pretty weird but hey... it's SM Entertainment.  What else would you expect?

Can I just say how I love everything about this?  The Wonder Girls did it again with "Like This".  Great song, great choreography and I can always get into anything that involves a flash mob.  They always manage to make me smile.

Once again life happened and rendered me incapable of working on this blog, aka tired as heck.  That's what happens when you are super busy at work and you had 2 days off in the past 2 weeks.  No bueno.  But enough whining.  On with this super, SUPER late post that I promised ages ago here  (yes that was  over a month ago... shame on moi): Big Bang has obviously been killing it left and right for the past few months.  They released the Alive album and had a phenomenal comeback.  They just released their "Monster" album, which I am about to go download in a hot second, and I'm sure they'll be blasting up the charts and rolling in the $$$ with this one too.   Big Bang's style during the Alive promotional cycle was a mixture of '80s and '90s references, dyed hair pieces and some crazy, with a dash of wtf thrown in for good measure but I thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it.  I'm all for some craziness and wtf-ery in an idol's sartorial choic
