Yay~ my second rant!! Since last week, i have been watching random clips of music performances, and WoW i never realized how many idol guy groups are currently in the kpop music scene. There is: Shinee, UKiss, TeenTop, DNA, ZE:A, Infinite. SuperJunior, 2PM, 2AM, and CNblue. Most of them have been around for a while, but i never knew that there were so many new groups trying to make it into the industry, and oh my goodness, I have things to say.
Lets start with the group DNA. I believe that they have potential, but I feel they are too young, age wise, and too young, music wise break out of the kpop mold and do something different. They are still somewhat of a young group, and it would be a risky move to try a different concept. Their music, choreography, and overall “feel” does excite me. If they debut about three years ago when the pretty boy concept was still popular, they would have had a better chance of succeeding. However, now, the music in Korea is all about having abs, and having a charismatic “dark” mood. I guess we are going to have to wait for them to mature a little bit more before they amaze us.
I don’t usually like a kpop group when i see them at first, but Infinite blew my mind when first saw them perform! I LoVEd their slick choreography that matched to the beat of their song, but what really amazed me was how in sync they were!! So a couple of times, i would randomly pause the clip and each guy in the group were all striking the same pose!! I never knew a group could so syncronize~! One random thought that was running through my mind: a couple of the members in the group resemble members of 2pm. o_O was that the guide to picking members for the group?!
TeenTop song Clap made me awe, and then laugh super hard. When they say “clap man” it sounds like “crap man.” That just made this catchy/hot song hilarious!
Not a male idol group but I have to talk about my mixed feelings after watching SonDamBi’s comeback stage. The first song she performed was Slowly Forget, and I absolutely loved it!!!! Finally someone that was willing to do something different on the stage!! Everything was so well put together. Then came along Queen. I don’t hate the song but i would prefer to hear and watch her perform Slowly Forget over Queen any day!
