Ok, so does anyone remember the “boy band” days? Nsync, Backstreet Boys, New Kids On The Block, or any other group with three or more members, singing and busting out choreographed dance moves? Well, in the United States, the “boy band” era, for the most part, has faded away. But in Korea–it is as strong as ever! I couldn’t BELIEVE how HYSTERICAL people were for Korean Pop (a.k.a “K-Pop”). I spent a whole day surrounded by thousands of screaming teenage girls. I loved how excited they were to see their favorite K-Pop singers, but I think I lost most of my hearing by the end of the day. Lol. Just kiddin.
The thing that surprised me the most about some of the “adoring”, “sweet”, and “innocent” teenage girls was the things they SAID they would do to their pop star if they could get the chance! Lol. I was thinking “Girl! You are like, 15! How do YOU know what THAT is–or how to do that — where the HECK is your mother!” Lol. I guess I underestimated the Korean youth.
While at the festival, I learned about all kinds of FAMOUS K-Pop bands like: Girls Generations, Shinee and a whole bunch more! But, the ONE band that I heard about every single second of the day was TVXQ, also known as: DONG BANG SHIN KI. They have a fan club of more than 800 thousand in Korea ALONE –that’s not including the rest of the world!
When I told some K-Pop fans that I hung-out with TVXQ, I was immediately rushed and touched as though ‘I’ were them! I guess I didn’t realize how FAMOUS they were at the time. Lol.
Well, if you’re looking for a festival you can go to for great dancing, great singing, and lots of excitement…then I HIGHLY recommend the ASIA SONG FESTIVAL!
p.s. When I returned to the United States, I came across tons of blogs asking about a particular picture with TVXQ! and myself.
People were asking why TVXQ was looking so mad or confused. It was neither. During the time of this picture, I was talking to my producer regarding my position in reference to the camera. Since TVXQ didn’t speak English, they were just waiting for the translator (not in frame) to tell them what we were talking about. 
I had a GREAT time hanging out with them. They are all COOL dudes! We were laughing and joking around with each other almost the whole time. I hope I answered some of the questions that were asked. If I missed any… hit me up on my blog, and we’ll talk!

The results for MKMF 2008
Wow, it was sort of unexpected because Bigbang won the ‘Best Male Group’ award! Where are the cassies? I thought they would do what ever they can to let TVXQ win! However, TVXQ still managed to bag in 5 awards on tonight’s MKMF. Well.. This shows that the VIPs are not any worse compared to the cassies in supporting their idols. Also, I wonder if the VIPs would kill Lee Hyori because Bigbang’s T.O.P kissed her during their performance.
WOO! WONDERGIRLS WON THE ‘BEST FEMALE GROUP’ award! They truly deserved it!
Anyway, other awards were predictable. For example, Lee Hyori won the ‘Best Female Singer’ and SHINee for the ‘Best Newcomer Group.’ All of them shed their tears.
Oh, TVXQ’s maknae, Changmin cried too.
Here are the results:
Best album of the year [TVXQ- Mirotic/Jumun]

2PM take over the name of WonderBoys
Not only 2pm are close to Wondergirls[they have their numbers] but also they sing/perform their songs. You can see this from their recent Radio appearance where 2PM performed Wondergirls’ Hit song, ‘Nobody.’ They are the truly ‘WonderBoys.’
