On June 22, MAMAMOO made a comeback with its new album "Purple". In a word, it's awesome. Purple is an unordinary color and is a color which is not for everyone, but the color represents MAMAMOO's distinct character. The girl group members, who have shown their pinky charm through their previous hit "Um Oh Ah Yeh" show more various colors this time.
MAMAMOO's title track "Yes I am" reached the top of a variety of online music charts, while it's notable that the girl group beat various popular k-pop stars such as G-Dragon, BLACKPINK and Bolbbalgan. MAMAMOO was not a top class idol group just a year ago, but the team has been in a strong uptrend, and yeah, they did it.
Through "Yes I am", a song which has catchy melody, MAMAMOO gives off its great energy. And the girl group shows very impressive energetic live performance too, while it's notable the song has lyrics that talk about the members. That's why many people can sympathize with the song. And "AZE Gag" is a very impressive song too. The song is comic, catchy and cheerful, while the MAMAMOO members show off their freewheeling charm through the song.
You might not realize MAMAMOO's popularity because the girl group could seem not to have as many loyal fans as the other popular young and lovely girl groups. However, actually, the girl group is now enjoying huge popularity among men and women of all ages. The evidence of MAMAMOO's popularity? A total of 940,000 people listened to "Yes I am" on Melon for the first 24 hours after the release of the song, while it's a new record for a girl group. MAMAMOO beat Wonder Girls' previous record of 900,000.
Basically, MAMAMOO could become one of the most popular k-pop girl groups because the girl group is totally different from the other girl groups. Most of k-pop girl groups just try to look pretty and lovely on the stage. However, MAMAMOO doesn't. Instead, the 4 members show how well they can sing and dance. They're not the prettiest idols, but they have outstanding singing ability, and they certainly know how to liven up the atmosphere. That's why MAMAMOO is the most sought-after girl group in the university festival season in Korea. Furthermore, as the members have a nice personality and are always nice to their fans, they have few anti fans.
But that's not all. MAMAMOO has a great helper, Kim Do Hoon. You might not have heard of the name, but he is a very famous music producer. He is the CEO of MAMAMOO's agency, and yeah, he's like Park Jin Young of JYP Entertainment. Reason why he is not so famous among global k-pop fans is because he's never produced an idol group before MAMAMOO debuted in 2014. However, he is a very competent music producer, and he is the one who discovered the 4 talented MAMAMOO members, trained them and built up the girl group's distinct character. And the MAMAMOO members also take part in writing their songs, but basically, Kim Do Hoon writes all the songs. Of course, "Yes I am" is written by him too.
People in the k-pop industry are now saying the MAMAMOO era has come. And they also say the era will continue for a long time for some reasons. First, the MAMAMOO members have great singing ability. Great singers can be loved by many people in any age. Second, MAMAMOO is not a girl group who just highlights its cute and lovely charm, which means the members will be able to be active as popular singers even after they became old. Third, SISTAR has disbanded, and there is no k-pop girl group who has a similar concept with MAMAMOO. You know, both SISTAR and MAMAMOO are girl groups who highlight their singing abilities rather than act cute on the stage, and it seems like there is no strong competitor who can stop MAMAMOO.

"Do k-pop idols really sing live? It's not an easy question to answer because the answer to the question could be both yes and no. Well, I want to talk about details about k-pop idols' live performance on the stage. Have you heard about MR, AR, LMR, and LAR? If you get to know about these terms, you will be able to have a good understanding of k-pop idols' live performance." MR(Music Recorded) Basically, MR means instrumental accompaniment. Have you been to karaoke? MR is like karaoke music which doesn’t contain the sound of singer’s voice. However, there is no k-pop idol who uses such a clear MR, while all the k-pop idols’ MR contains sounds of their voices. Before performing their songs on k-pop chart shows, k-pop idols should make their MR, and the way how they make MR is to decrease the sound volume of their voices in original music, while keeping the sound volume of instrumental accompaniment as it is. So, to k-pop idols, singing to MR doesn’t j
Dynamic Duo released its new album. The Korean hip hop duo that consists of Choiza and Gaeko is regarded as the representative hip hop artist in Korea, while the two met in the 6th grade of elementary school and have a long standing history of being friends. Choiza and Gaeko started to work together through an underground hip hop scene named CB Mass and then came to establish Dynamic Duo in 2003. Well, the duo's new album 'A Giant Step' includes two tracks, 'AEAO' and 'Animal', while the album really shows a giant step because it was co-produced by world famous hip hop artist DJ Premier, who has worked with popular stars such as Jay Z, Kanye West, The Black Eyed Peas, and Maroon 5. Celebrating its releasing new album, Dynamic Duo held a press conference with DJ Premier in Seoul, but all the people's concerns were centered on Choiza's scandal with f(x)'s Sulli. At the press conference, Choiza didn't talk about the scandal at all, b

Girls' Generation: Soo Young(Big foot) / Sunny, Jessica, Hyo Yeon(Small foot) Soo Young has the biggest feet among Girls' Generation(SNSD) members. It is 245mm.

Have you watched “We Got Married”? As you know, the program is about male and female stars who entered their imaginary married life. Well, some of you may wonder if the couple's love for each other is real. Let's talk about the truth about “We Got Married.” Is WGM Scripted? Before filming the program, the production crew delivers scripts to the cast. However, the scripts of “We Got Married” are totally different from those of dramas or movies. The scripts of “We Got Married” do not have any detailed words. They just include general explanation of situation. For example, “It’s the day you move into your new apartment,” “It’s the day you introduce your wife to your friends,” etc. On the basis of the scripts, the cast prepares for clothes, accessories and more. And during filming the program, the production crew occasionally intervenes in the couple’s dating because the young cast who is unused to a real variety show such as SHINee's Taemin and APink's Naeun needs
Goo Hara, a female k-pop star who has achieved tremendous things as a member of popular girl group Kara, is having a hard time. You know, she is currently being investigated for an assault case, and it seems both Goo Hara and her ex-boyfriend Choi Jong Bum, a handsome hair designer who is known as "Yoo Ah-in of Cheongdam-dong", are responsible for causing bodily harm to each other. Goo Hara got bruises all over her body, while the hair designer had scars on her face. But what's even more shocking is that the ex-boyfriend threatened to leak a sex tape with the k-pop idol in it. He threatened to upload footage of their intimate moments on the web as revenge porn following their 30-minute fight. Even though his lawyer stated that there were no such threats made and that filming the sex tape was Goo Hara’s idea to begin with, the statement doesn't sound so reliable because the ex-boyfriend had contacted Dispatch and suggested that he has information worthy of
