In 2015, a head to head showdown between the most popular k-pop boy groups set the k-pop world on fire. BIGBANG released its new songs “BANG BANG BANG” and “WE LIKE 2 PARTY” on June 2, while EXO released “LOVE ME RIGHT” just 24 hours later.
The battle between BIGBANG and EXO was a matter of pride of the two biggest k-pop agencies, YG Entertainment and SM Entertainment, and the two agencies provided full support to the top class boy groups. By the way, their thoughts about the battle were a little bit different. Let's see what YG and SM were thinking about the head to head showdown between BIGBANG and EXO.
The release of “BANG BANG BANG” and “WE LIKE 2 PARTY” was a part of BIGBANG's special comeback project. BIGBANG released “LOSER” and “BAE BAE” on May 1, and the group was scheduled to release single albums every month of the year, which means the release of “BANG BANG BANG” and “WE LIKE 2 PARTY” was an already planned event. BIGBANG and YG were dreaming of making 2015 the year of themselves.
However, EXO's sudden comeback was beyond their expectations. Do you remember that 2NE1 released its new album right after Girls' Generation made a comeback in 2014? 2NE1 and YG took advantage from the strategy, making SM and Girls' Generation so embarrassed at that time. But in 2015, Yang Hyun Suk got what he deserved. When SM announced that EXO will release its new song on June 3, YG was embarrassed because EXO was nothing to sneeze. Before the head to head showdown between BIGBANG and EXO, YG clamed BIGBANG’s superiority over EXO by emphasizing that BIGBANG is the group who shows better live performance. YG never wanted to lose the battle.
A battle between BIGBANG and EXO was SM's revenge for YG because SM got a wound when 2NE1 released its album around the same time as Girls' Generation in 2014. So, before EXO released “LOVE ME RIGHT,” SM considered everything carefully and derived a conclusion that the head to head showdown between BIGBANG and EXO will bring benefits.
First, BIGBANG debuted in 2006 and EXO debuted in 2012, which means EXO has nothing to lose even if the group loses a battle with its senior k-pop group. Korea still has a Confucian system of seniority, and it sometimes taken for granted that juniors lose their competition against seniors.
Second, between the two groups, who do you think will have better chance to win No.1 trophies on various music chart shows? Yeah, it's EXO because EXO has numerous enthusiastic fans who can vote for them, while BIGBANG’s fans are older than EXO’s and they usually are not very active in voting for BIGBANG. In addition, EXO has a high record of album sales thanks to the enthusiastic fans. So, that was what SM was thinking about the battle. SM wanted to show that EXO can beat BIGBANG to win No.1 trophies of k-pop chart shows.

"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...
As you know, Kpop girl group members look so innocent and cute. We usually describe them as 'fairy'. Then, how about their feet? It seems that they have tiny lovely feet. Well, what do you think? Let's see the shoe sizes of Kpop female idols. Sooyoung has the biggest feet among Girls' Generation's members. 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. Is there anybody who are diapponted because Soo Young has too big feet? Actually, she is the tallest member too. She is 170cm tall. Let's make a comparison between Soo Young and Tae Yeon. Tae Yeon's shoe size is 240mm and she is 162cm tall. Yoona, Seo Hyun and Yuri's shoe sizes are also 240mm. Three other members have the smallest feet among SNSD's members. Sunny, Jessica and Hyo Yeon's shoe sizes are all the same as 225mm to 230mm. Does it fit your expectation?...
In 2015, Lee Seung Gi and Yoona have broken up after dating for a year and 9 months. I think many kpop fans felt sad about it because the two seemed to be a perfect match. Both Lee Seung Gi and Yoona are well known for their good nature and they're alike in personality, while they'd tried hard to protect each other. The official reason for their breakup was their hectic schedules. However, there was another reason why they should break up. As you may know, for Korean men, the military service is mandatory, while Lee Seung Gi also joined the army in February 2016. I've served in the military too and saw so many soldiers who broke up with their girlfriends in the army. From my own personal experience, more than 70% of soldiers break up with their girlfriends after joining the army. As all the Korean young people know about this, some of them part with their girlfriends just before enlistment even though they’re still in love with girlfriends. They think it is a way of...
