Oddness/Weirdness

SHINee 's back!  That's right, I said it, because the " Dream Girl " album is finally out!   Dream Girl iTunes Album art.  Click for larger images.

SHINee is about to comeback with " Dream Girl " so it's safe to assume we'll be seeing them in tons of magazines to come.  The first of these would be Nylon Korea , who made them look like stylish yet innocent boys next door, and then asked them some probing questions that they seemed to answer pretty honestly (especially Onew ).  Enjoy the HQ scans, BTS video and interview with English translation below.

Big Bang 's Taeyang and G-Dragon will be featured in next month's issue of Vogue Korea and this editorial is shaping up to be a hot one.  We know Vogue Korea treats GD very well (like this beautifully creepy 2009 editorial), so I was anticipating that this editorial would be excellent and they sure did not disappoint.

SHINee 's " Dream Girl " mv teaser is finally out and it sure has been worth the wait, don't you think?  If you haven't seen it yet (or even if you have), watch it with me:

Loen TV just released a super cute "Coming Soon" interview featuring the  SHINee boys, in which Onew gets to act like a CSI sleuth and grills the other members for info on "Dream Girls".  Enjoy! Adorable Onew plays Sherlock.

It's been a night filled with a lot of misdirection and waiting but at least we got something out of it!  That's right... even though I posted all kinds of random incorrect stuff on the blog Facebook page, here is SHINee 's " Dream Girl " album medley teaser.  

I went SHINee crazy on the blog in the past week.  There's nothing wrong with that, but the upshot of this SHINee-bration was that I felt like I had to relax on that for a day or two.   OF COURSE 20 things happened in the past few days, because that's how things go in the Kpop world so let me do a little recap. The preview of SHINee's soon to be released pv and single, " Fire ", has been released:

Alright my friends as you know SHINee 's new show, " SHINee's Wonderful Day ", that debuted on Lunar New Years, is going to have ten 45 minute  episodes.  Yesterday the fabulous krisbrows7 uploaded the HD version of episode 1 with no cuts.  By no cuts, I mean the extended version, not the  Lunar New Years special version .  This means more SHINee!  Got it?  Good. Edited to add : English sub version.

My love affair with Jay Park continues, because today he tweeted a new totally FREE track, appropriately called " 2013 Appetizer ".  I'm just going to leave this here:

Big Bang 's G-Dragon , along with fellow bandmates Seungri and Taeyang , attended the Gaon Charts Kpop Awards earlier today and unveiled a little surprise:

By: Joan M. My favorite new kpop expression is fan service—the idea that idols will go the extra mile to make their fans happy.  And for me there’s no better fan service than spending 12-plus hours watching talented and personable kpop stars acting in a kdrama.  When you’re already a fan, it can make the viewing experience much more entertaining.

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!

SM Entertainment has so redeemed themselves after yesterday's " Dream Girl " teasers featuring Onew .  I didn't love those pics but I do love SHINee 's new group teasers.  Take a look at these fabulous boys, looking fresh to death in their nouveau baroque patterns, in those intriguing cuts and fits.   Onew ,  Taemin ,  Jonghyun ,  Minho  and  Key  are always ahead of the curve, fashion-wise.
