Triple Crown victory on Inkigayo for SNSD despite absence

Triple Crown victory on Inkigayo for SNSD despite absence

Yes..they were absent. I guess they’re too busy preparing for the Encore concerts but nonetheless, their absence on this week’s SBS Inkigayo has no effect on their Triple Crown win. The only thing we missed from the show is their “Oh!” performance. The Triple Crown win means that they will not be eligible for the next mutizen award. On today’s Inki, T-ara made their comeback with their new songs, “내가 너무 아파(I’m so hurt)” and “너 때문에 미쳐 (Go Crazy Because of You)” while Kara are back with “Lupin”. Here’s the Take 7 and mutizen song result announcement for today’s Inki. I know, there are faces you don’t like in that video. Well, just ignore them. So, just look at Sulli…lol.

Black Soshis - SNSDs hidden sexy side

Black Soshis - SNSD's hidden sexy side

Girls’ Generation have finally shed some light on their Black Soshis concept during an interview. Although nothing much was said in detail on the concept so far, the girls revealed that the new concept will highlight their hidden sexy side.

In the “Oh!” MV, which was released on January 27th, netizens were curious about the girls in black who appeared at the end of the MV. To clear things up, SM Entertainment confirmed hours later that it was a teaser for their upcoming concept. The girls in black were given the name Black Soshis by fans ever since.

On the concept, Girls’ Generation further stated that the Black Soshis will be doing the exact opposite of what the ‘bright’ Soshis. In “Oh!”, the girls were dongsaengs calling out to oppas but for the Black Soshis, they will be singing as unnies instead. They further revealed that the filming of the new MV has been completed.

When asked about the tough competition from other girl groups, the girls commented, “We are happy to see the return of many brilliant performances of girl groups. We are very excited at the thought of sharing the stage with the others”.

Girls’ Generation are currently having their encore concert (27th and 28th February) in Olympic Park Fencing Stadium in Seoul to thank their fans, Sones for the continuous love and support that they have received. They had their first Asia Concert Tour in Seoul on December 19th and 20th last year and they will be continuing their tour in Shanghai in April and Bangkok in May.

4th Music Bank K-Chart win for the golden girls

Friday, February 26th, 2010
Win no.4 for the golden girls

Win no.4 for the golden girls

So, who are the golden girls? It’s none other than Girls’ Generation and it’s their 4th consecutive win on KBS Music Bank for “Oh!”. Earlier this week, the album sales of Girls’ Generation’s 2nd Album “Oh!” on Hanteo Information System have exceeded 100,000 copies.

The golden top and white hot pants the girls put on for today is their 11th outfit for “Oh!” so far. It would be nice if there’s a comedian who would do a parody of “Oh!” and the outfits they’re wearing. I guess Kim Shin Young would be interested.

On today’s Music Bank, Kara showcased their comeback performances of “Umbrella” and “Lupin”, which is the title track of their new mini album, “Lupin”. Among the artists who were featured on today’s show were Girls’ Generation, Kara, 2AM, Jo Hye Ryun, U-Kiss, CN Blue, T-ara, ZE:A, 4Men, AB Avenue, Park Hyun Bin, Trax and many more.

For the fourth consecutive weeks, Girls’ Generation took the top spot with more than 20,000 points. Today, they managed to secure 20,549 points, followed by 2AM with 13,073 points and CN Blue with 7,443 points. Can they secure their 5th win next week? It will be a tough fight as we can expect Kara to be in the top 3 on next week’s KBS Music Bank. So stay tune!

The winner is……

Sunny has no kissing experience

 I havent kissed - Sunny

"I haven't kissed" - Sunny

When it comes to kissing, Sunny is not the right person to ask for advice. On MBC’s Quiz That Changes The World, Sunny revealed that she has no experience in kissing. During the show which was aired on February 20th, MC Lee Hwijae asked “When guys want to kiss, doesn’t the girls usually notice?” In response, Sunny replied, “To tell the truth, I haven’t actually experienced having a real proper relationship. I haven’t kissed yet either.” Don’t get the wrong idea. When she mentioned kiss, she meant the romantic type, not the friendly type. I believe she kissed her members, parents and also, Kyungsan!..haha

I believe after this, fanboys will be lining up in front of SNSD’s dorm to provide a free kissing course for Sunny…lol…just kidding..

Wonder Girls preparing for Korean comeback!

Wonder Girls are back!

Wonder Girls are back!

Good news for Wonder Girls’ fans in Korea ! After being away from Kpop stages for more than a year, Wonder Girls are preparing for their comeback stages in Korea once again in April to promote their US debut album which is also going to be released in April.

According to a JYP Entertainment representative, the Wonder Girls are now focusing on the new album which includes their hit song “Nobody”. The new album will also contain four to five new tracks. The representative also stated that there will be a Korean version for the title track and they are expecting to spend more time to promote the title track in Korea than any other countries.

From the representative’s statement, it’s clear that the title track for the US debut album is not “Nobody”, “Tell Me” or “So Hot”. Can it be “Always Without Me”, a song co-written by Dave Stewart and Cindy Gomez?. We’ll have to wait to find out and I believe it’ll be revealed soon.

Looks like this year’s award presentation will be interesting, especially among the girl groups. Will it be ‘Oh’! vs ‘Always Without Me’ ?

SNSD scored hat-trick on Music Bank

SNSD scored hat-trick on Music Bank

Girls’ Generation mantained their impressive run on KBS Music Bank K-Chart with 3rd consecutive win. Not only did they hold on to the no.1 spot on the weekly music show, the girls scored more than 20,000 points for all the 3 victories they secured.

Besides the victory, the girls continued their trend of wearing different outfits for “Oh!” performance on KBS Music Bank, MBC Show!Music Core and SBS Inkigayo. For the record, the grey shirt with orange shorts that the 9 girls wore on Music Bank today was the 10th outfit they have put on for “Oh! so far. So, which of the outfits looks best on them? We are definitely having a hard time to decide as they look good whatever they are wearing.

On today’s Music Bank, Girls’ Generation took the first place with 20,284 points, 2AM in second place with 15,191 and CN Blue in third with 7,991. Girls’ Generation’s beautiful ballad, “Star Star Star” climbed 3 places up to 7th this week on the K-Chart. Here are their performances on today’s Music Bank.

By the way, Maknae’s on-stage accident topped the search list on Naver and Daum yesterday. Honestly, I could hear her scream. Thank God, she kept her balance. Maybe she’s too nervous as ‘hubby’ was watching…lol. Well, wear flat shoes next time, girls.
