Americans don't want pretty Asian boys or girls, they want crazy dancing!
Psy on the Today Show was cute.

..they have ridiculous outfits, semi-silly choreography, and weird fluffy hair, but Shinee's Sherlock performances are strangely addictive.
"I love you...but why are you dressed like my grandmother...." (slight edit) - most apt comment there.

and the other item of note, I like FT Island's new j-pv, Stay.

Impressed by the Girls' Generation on Letterman last night and Kelly this morning. Less embarrassing song and dance choices than the Wonder Girls on Dancing with the Stars last year.

Also developed a fondness for FT Island's angsty songs. 지독하게 is their new one.

Mildly horrified by L'Arc~en~Ciel's definition of acoustic in their new version of I'm So Happy.

But applause towards their fanservice/publicity stunt.

Lucky Guy by Kim Hyun Joong has some corny choreography, but it's entertaining.

Not asian pop, but those Nicki Minaj-loving British girls are adorable.

Hey, Yui's Lock On...hopefully, she doesn't mean rock on.

Please do not let Jang Geun Suk release his own music -> Gotta Getcha MV teaser. The whole song is out there, too, but it's not any better than the 26 second teaser.

He can still be a cute pet.

Natsume Yuujinchou San 11! The bromance deepens.

Amuro Namie's Unusual PV featuring Yamapi who is growing up so nicely has to be more interesting than the collaboration with Lil Wayne, right? Her Best Collaboration album is coming out in a couple weeks. :)

Other random asian pop musings...

I like how the cover of Gackt's 'YELLOW FRIED CHICKENz' DVD has a photo of him stealing KFC's Colonel Sanders. I also enjoy that the title of the tour was printed on the cross over his concert stage. I don't get the words and symbol. Colonel Sanders x Jesus? What does it mean?

Looking forward to supercell's 'Today Is A Beautiful Day' album next week. The Perfect Day PV features some mysterious girl-love anime story.

Also, CN Blue's first full (not-mini) album, First Step, will be out in a couple weeks, too.

A random entry as I browse the web - Kpop mentioned on the front of Yahoo? collaboration with Kanye? (Please no...Justin Bieber would be more preferable). The Wonder Girls performing on Dancing with the Stars was a bit of an embarrassing representation of Korean pop culture. Hope the boy band can show off Kpop talents better.

Itzura na Kiss has been made into a kdrama which starts next week. I don't have much hope from it after seeing the extended preview. Kim Hyun-joong ('Rui' in Boys Before Flowers) is about 10 years too old to be in high school while Jung So-min (stalker sister in Bad Guy) is only about 5 years too old to be in high school. She lacks the special charm that a main character should have...though regarding their ages, I do realize the original manga flows up through their adulthood. I would hope that that is why they had cast those particular actors/actresses. From the preview, the comedy doesn't look too original. Are there any other new dramas to look forward to?

FT Island released their 2nd mini album, Beautiful Journey. I didn't particularly like their generic jpop releases, so I'm glad to hear they've returned to their angst-ridden kpop roots. The first MV from the album, Love Love Love, features Lee Hong-ki with a new, wavy, red bob?

Kim Yoo-na's first MV.

Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood 60! It's the near-the-end climax. Big blob becomes a bigger blob, and is trying to eat God...oh no.

Uraboku 9! Not sure why they even bother with the generic bad guys when the main characters run around sad and confused all on their own. I can tell why fans like Shusei and Hotsuma more than the main couple. Shusei has the horrible disfiguring scar which was caused by Hotsuma; ie. good fanfic material.

Katanagatari 6! Halfway mark as Shichika gets another sword and without needlessly killing too many people this time...though 2 more Maniwani members die anyway. Finally warming up to this, and the slowness has alot to do with Shichika's monotone face and speech. He's up against his sister next month which should be a good episode.
