It’s the same with all those rap stars you see touting their bling.
That “bling” is owned by the record companies.
The boo hoo girl is kpop too. I think.
By comparison, KC and the Sunshine Band were the Pink Floyd of their time.
This is disposable, like Alka Seltzer tablets.
Is that on netflix or youtube?
I watch a cooking show on YouTube put on by a Korean gal named maangchi. It’s in English. I’ve been really into Korean food ever since the first time I had eaten at a Korean restaurant. I was completely blown away by how they covered the whole table with all these little bowls of side dishes. So many flavors I’d never had before!
I get them on Viki.com. They have the best selection of K-Dramas.
How many laptop farms is that?
I don’t believe all 8billion people in the world have seen Gangman Stule despite what their inflated view count says
Bekuh Boom is my grand daughter. They say she is a genius songwriter.
She competed in American Idol at 16, finished in 69th place, was signed to Warner but that has gone nowhere.
At 20, Teddy Park brought her to Seoul to work with YG, then later his own company.
Pink Floyd were the Pink Floyd of KC and the Sunshine Band’s time. They were contemporaries, both huge at the same time.
Just added a view. Silly fluff, but inoffensive and better than a lot of other crap out there.
now at least 128,881,328 views
I prefer Chloe Wang now known as actress Chloe Bennett “Uh, Oh”

K-Tel, there is a memory. At least the commercials.
It takes on a life of its own simply as the number of views grows. PPl simply need to see what’s the deal. I am tempted, but then I’d be feeding the beast.
OMG, they are awful. Noise and cartoon colorization. Blech.
Better stuff from South Korea: Gangnam Style, which is truly clever and funny:

Sounds like monkeys gang banging a football to me.
LOVE Blackberry Smoke! I’ve seen them 4 times.
I love Gangnam Style...really clever.
It was also performed by James Hahn, American PGA golfer, half Korean I believe. He had just won an important tournament:

Gangnam Style, 2012 sensation from South Korea has 3,325,990,674 views. And counting.
That works for me. Will look for them to play here.
I know a Chinese teenager who went through a phase where she was so utterly obsessed with K-Pop videos, she wanted to become Korean. She learned Korean, dressed Korean, watched only Korean TV on her computer, which her mother eventually took away from her.
