Oh! - No.1 song for first half of 2010 on Music Bank K-Chart

This time it’s not the World Cup. In the midst of celebrating Korea Republic’s advance to the Round of 16, I have something else to celebrate. Yes! it’s my 9 girls…my Soshi. We did it again with “Oh!” on Music Bank and this time, taking the #1 spot on K-Chart for first half of 2010.

Today’s Half-Year Music Bank showcased some great performances by our girls,which includes a special dance stage, “Oh!” performance and a cover of Kelly Clarkson’s “My Life Would Suck Without You” by Music Bank Band consisting of Taeyeon and Seohyun (SNSD), Yonghwa (CN Blue), Gyuri and Hara (Kara) , Jinwoon (2AM) and Sungmin (Super Junior), etc.

Taeng looks a bit down and weak during the “Oh!” performance. I wonder what happened because she sang Kelly Clarkson’s song really well and full of energy. Hope she’s ok. Sunny got confused at the end..hehe…but it’s all good (biased, I know ).

Congratulations to SNSD for getting the #1 spot for the first half of 2010 on Music Bank! Here are the performances.

Wonder Girls and Taeng having a great time dancing "Oh!"

Wow…another Wonder Shidae moment there! This time, it’s on KBS 2TV Win Win with MC Taeyeon. So awesome to see them laugh so heartily and enjoying the moments there. I haven’t watched the whole show but it seems to be a really great episode. Probably because Wonder Girls are featured and Taeyeon is there as the MC. I’m a bit biased when it comes to SNSD and WG, I know. Well, this blog is about Wonder Shidae or Wonder Generation, like some of you call it.

By the way, today is our Park Yeeun’s 21st Birthday and it’s just awesome that she get to celebrate it in Korea with her family and friends before she heads back to US again on May 31st. Happy Birthday, Yeeun. Hope you’ll have an awesome birthday and a memorable one.

It’s been a very hectic 2-week promotion in Korea for WG and we know they’ll be having series of concerts in US. I wish they spend more time in Korea and appear on more talk shows, variety shows and of course, see them winning the K-Charts and Mutizens.

SNSD and WG at 2010 Dream Concert

It was an evening where fans get to see Wonder Girls and Girls’ Generation performed on the same stage. As Wonder Girls will be promoting “2DT” everywhere and SNSD’s touring Asia doing concerts and promotions, it would be rare to see the two prominent girl groups performing on the same occassion.

Wonder Girls performed “2DT” followed by the medley of “Tell Me-So Hot-Nobody”. After that, SNSD came on stage and performed “Run Devil Run” and “Oh!”. I love that dorky Yul doing the RDR move during “Oh!” and they were doing the fanchants at the end of the song as well. Sunny’s high, fierce kick during “RDR” was caught on camera. Wow, good timing, cameraman but don’t do it next time..lol

Sunny: eat this!

SNSD – “Oh!”

I’m sure you have seen many fancams of the Dream Concert performances held at Seoul Olympic Stadium on May 22nd, but out of these videos, 1 particular vid caught my attention and it is this one here.

I would like to bring your attention to 3:00. The girls in black and light blue were seen talking to one another. They are none other than Yubin, YoonA and Hyoyeon. They were probably discussing about Yubin’s nail polish or fingers and Hyoyeon was joking around with Yubin.

At 4:53, another priceless 원더시대 moment appeared. As the girls (SNSD and WG) were making their way to the backstage, Sunye and Jessica were side-hugging (I don’t know how you call that gesture…lol) each other. They were obviously happy to meet each other on stage and were chatting like old friends.

It’s like a dream comes true seeing these moments. Now, I’d like to stress that this is an extremely rare footage of 원더시대 and I’d like to give a big thanks my friend, snsdchingoo for capturing those moments. Show her some love, people!

The Dream Concert was a success with minor childish fans-related issues which I’m not gonna elaborate here as not to damage the beautiful pictures painted by the artists who performed on the evening. SBS will be airing the Dream Concert on May 30th. It was supposed to be on May 23rd but was later postponed.

SNSD @ KJE's Chocolate on April 10th, 2010

On SBS Kim Jung Eun’s Chocolate aired on April 10th, the soshi revealed their ideal men. To make things simple, short and sweet, here’s the list of their ideal men:

Taeyeon – Hugh Jackman
Jessica - Josh Hartnett
Sunny – Takeshi Kaneshiro / 金城 武 (lol…she kept on stroking the photo.)
Tiffany – Chase Crawford
Hyoyeon - Takuya Kimura / 木村 拓哉
Yuri – Justin Timberlake
Sooyoung – Brad Pitt
YoonA – Takuya Kimura / 木村 拓哉
Seohyun – Johnny Depp

Part 1/2

Part 2/2

On the show, they put up some great performances. I personally like the ‘Wannabe’ performance. The girls totally nailed it. The ‘Oh!’ performance to me was one of the best so far. They were energetic and obviously in a very cheerful mood. Poor Sunny and Hyoyeon, they were shocked by the stage ‘explosion’ (sorry, I have no idea what it’s called) at the end of ‘Oh!’. Here are the performances!

SNSD bid 'Oh!' goodbye on Music Core

It will be a very short farewell as SNSD are now preparing to unveil their Black Soshi on March the 18th. Yuri was back MC-ing with Tiffany on Music Core today and she teased us with “no fun no manner” thingy again. So, what could it be? The title of the song or part of the lyrics? Well, keep guessing..hahaha. Here’s the farewell performance on Music Core today.

SNSD’s “Oh!” dropped to 8th in Digital Chart and 10th in Album Chart.

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……
