Cutting down...

on SHINee and 2PM. Not because I want to, but because I'm forced to.

SHINee is only doing schedules until the 15th and then there's a gap of nothing and then they're doing fan meetings from the 26th to the 30th. *sigh* Such a big decrease in broadcasts for me to spazz over.

2PM's is even worse! They stop doing 1:59 album promotions on the 10th and won't be back until April with their new album. Yay for working on a new album, but a whole 3.5 months without my guys is going to be TORTURE. And Jay, now would be a good time to go back to Korea, get in on the new album action, and make me and the rest of the K-Pop world extremely happy.

However, I am glad that my guys are going to get more rest. They definitely deserve it.

And regarding GD, this situation is ridiculous. I support him and his artistic freedom. That's all I'm going to say.

As a general rule, I am not going to write too much about controversies here. I want this blog to be an enjoyable one.

Anyways, back on topic! Just because there will be a lack of recent activity from my favorite guys, doesn't mean that I won't be posting stuff less often. If anything, there will be even more. I still have a lot of others to write about: 2AM, f(x), MBLAQ, 2NE1, etc. Also, I will probably be pic spamming like crazy instead of video spamming :)

And speaking of videos, I was going back through my entries and saw that most of (if not all) the Gayo Daejun videos were taken down. *sigh* I'm not going to go through the tediousness of finding all the videos again. I did it once already.

Helpful suggestion on searching for K-Pop stuff on Youtube:
The date of the broadcast/event in YYMMDD form (i.e. December 29, 2009 = 091229) + Artist name(s)
I don't think this has ever failed me.

Okay, this has turned into a pretty random post...bye...for now...

So. Freaking. Excited!!! I LOVE end of the year specials. They're just so choc-full of greatness.

2009 Melon Music Awards

So...heh...I ended up staying up all night watching it live on Solinren instead of sleeping for my final. 2PM! 2NE1! G-dragon (via video)! No SHINee :(

2PM's Top 10 performance was soooo...AMAZING! The intro totally made my entire night/morning :D

Junho = Tired of Waiting; Chansung = I Was Crazy About You; Junsu = Gimme the Light; Wooyoung = Back 2 U; Khun = All Night Long; Taec = My Heart
Yeeee! They used all their songs on the 1:59 album.
OMFG Khun + All Night Long = pervy fangirl spazz out. (I will totally blog about this song soon.)
"Heartbeat" was perfection, as always. These guys never disappoint :)

2NE1 performed "Fire" and "I Don't Care" for their Top 10 stage. I've almost forgotten how great the girls' performances are. It's been a while since they've done a performance as a whole 4. So powerful compared to all the other girl groups.


And they did a DJ Schedule1 remix of "Let's Go Party" for the super girl group joint stage! So dooope :D


AND THEY WON THE NEW ARTIST AWARD! That's right, they totally deserve this one too.

GD won Album of the Year :D Despite all the controversy, he still comes out on top. It's nearly impossible to dethrone him.

And on top of all this awesomeness that is the Melon Music Awards, Sukie was a perfect MC along with Shin Hye. "Hyungnim!!!" Gah, I want "You're Beautiful" back...RIGHT NOW. Give us a 2nd season!
Now I just have to find all the MCing parts with subs so I know exactly what they were saying and being so cute about.

TTFN.

and now #choiminho is climbing up RIGHT NOW for his birthday.
EDIT @ 2:36am: Looks like he's gonna stay at #2 for now



Oh, the power of k-pop fans. It's almost too powerful.

Why I ♥ Big Bang

• They're amazing singers and rappers
  - I find it hard for anyone to beat G-Dragon and TOP. (But then again, I'm biased.) And Taeyang+ Daesung's voices are amazingggg and Seungri's getting there too.
• Dance, dance, dance
  - Seungri, the dance machine FTW! Their routines are catchy and memorizable.
• Personalities
  - TOP is hilariously silly/dorky
  - Taeyang is soooo innocent
  - Daesung is just too loveable
  - G-Dragon leader is too cool
  - Seungri is an attention whore but so cute about it
• There are a bunch more reasons, but I'm getting too lazy to list them.
