Song of the Day: Bang Yong Guk ft Yo Seob I Remember

Posted on by spazifyouwantto

Already ban the music video but still manage to make #1 Melon, Bugs and Navar digital. Newcomer male soloist Bang Yong Guk is ready to dominate the scene. He’s team up with B2st(Beast) Yo Seob for a powerful pop rock number “I Remember.”

It’s not the song that is causing the controversial fuss but the music video itself. While the standard of any newcomer video consist of dancing, looking cute,sexy or fierce. This one has an excellent story plot of a young girl who is in serious trouble. Her lover (or former) must go out and save her from a group of bad hyung. He will risk everything and kill anyone who dares stands between them. Quite interesting, I see a bright future with this newbie.

Hyuna & Zico True Leaders of The New School?

Posted on by spazifyouwantto

Muh, I’m coining lines from the very own Teddy Park (1tym) from the “The Leaders.” That include G-Dragon (Big Bang) and CL (2ne1). I feel these 3 have challengers who is ready to wave their own flag.

Hyuna will end her Bubble Pop promotion with a hip hop number called “Just Follow”. The original creator and rapper Dok2(Gonzo) is MIA for the moment. So to take his place and make sure this song doesn’t fail to impress Zico of Block-B will do the male part.

I already Know Hyuna killed this track further proving she is one fierce smexy ladey. But Zico totally amp fans up with his tongue twister of  a rap. Although Zico is young, in a rookie group and is barely legal. He has already shown he can go against even the most experience rappers and beat the best of them.

Watching Hyuna and Zico on stage these two quickly become an unbeatable dynamic force for 3:26 seconds. Just watch for yourself

I will ship the hell out of these two ZiYuna you have my fan girl attention.

2ne1 TV Season 3 Episode 5-7

I’m not sure if MNet and YG is able to keep up with English subbing on YouTube. Because of this you may see two different version of each video. The original aired version from MNet prior to any translated material. The English subs are secondary and used specifically for YouTube fans to watch. So suspect delays on English subs as the season progress. Each video will be indicated (KOR) Korean and (ENG) English. I don’t work for MNet or YG I just have good common sense.

Note: Although English subs are preset on some videos it can also be a scroll options menu separate from the video offer by YouTube. When  you see a symbol that represents a ‘page’ that is English subs or use Google Chrome browser.
