Video Teaser for HA:TFELT's "Ain't Nobody" Released


Yesterday a teaser video for HA:TFELT's debut single "Ain't Nobody" was uploaded on JYP Entertainment's channel. The music featured has no vocals like the video for "Me?" did, in fact the music sounds completely different, having a piano as the main instrument instead of a guitar. It seems this single will have a sensitive concept and will be very different to the singles that the Wonder Girls usually sang.

HA:TFELT is the stage name that will be used by Yeeun from the Wonder Girls for her solo debut, and she has used this name previously as her pen-name as a songwriter.

Sulli to "Take a Break" From f(x) Promotions


After Sulli's mysterious disappearances from music shows recently, SM have announced today that she will be taking a break from all entertainment activities as per her request due to her physical and mental condition. It's really sad to know the rumours about her being pregnant have actually affected her well-being and hopefully she makes a speedy recovery.

Unfortunately f(x) have now finished promotions for "Red Light" (at least it was a week longer than "Pink Tape") but the other members will still be performing in the SMTOWN concert in August and will carry on with their solo activities. Apparently Victoria had stated "Red Light" will be getting a repackage not too long ago, so whether Sulli will participate in promotions (assuming this will actually happen) remains to be seen. Hopefully fans will be able to support Sulli and f(x) despite this news.

Kpopular!'s One Month Anniversary!(!!)

Whilst obviously not kpop news I thought I'd make a little post to say this blog is a month old (yay)! So with 180 views (44 of which apparently came from the news post about f(x)'s comeback and Krystal's teaser photos) I'd like to thank everyone who visited this blog.

Kpopular was originally created simply to fill up the long summer holiday but I'm now definitely going to continue it and hopefully feature different and original content in the near future! Thank you all again!

Over 1000 Show Their Swag at Auditions for Hyuna's Comeback


"C'MON, STEP IT UP"

The other day over 1000 hopefuls showed up at auditions for Hyuna's dance team in her latest comeback. Of course, only the swaggiest can get through, and to show they have what it takes they'll have to blast through with Sanic speed.

Seriously though, 1000? I know Hyuna's pretty popular but that's huge. I guess it just shows how competitive this industry is. I'm assuming this means we'll get some great dancing for the MV though.

Album Review- f(x)'s "Red Light"


f(x)'s third album is here at long last and the phrase "OMG YAAAS SLAY GURLS SLAY" has never been more appropriate.

100% Release MV Teaser for "U Beauty" and Thankfully It Isn't Cute


After seeing the other trailers for the "Sunkiss" mini album I was slightly worried that the cute concept would mean a horribly generic and dull "noona killer" song and the whole MV would be them wandering around and flirting with the camera. However, the MV teaser for this seems standard 100% fare, meaning an incredibly uninteresting plot with Chanyong and another member with some girl thankfully interspersed with plenty of dance shots. The song also seems a lot better than whatever was playing in the background of the other teasers (which I'm praying is just an intro track) and after the marvellous Beat I'm really looking forward to this song.

100%'s new mini album "Sunkiss" will be released on the 7th of July.

MV Review- f(x)'s "Red Light"


IT'S HEEEEEEEEEEEEEERE.

*ahem* Yes, after a week of non-stop teasers and previews f(x) have finally returned and now we shall bask in their glory.
And they've returned with a dark and strange video.
The members look almost robotic in some parts, which only added to the effect.

MV Review- Fiestar's "One More"


I'll admit that when I watched the video this morning that I really didn't expect much for this. Not because I don't like Fiestar but because I've never paid too much attention to them and have only heard three songs from them. So I was quite surprised as to how impressed I was with "One More".

MV Teaser for "Red Light" Released + Audio Previews for 2 Songs From the Album!

SM Town's YouTube channel has just uploaded the MV teaser for "Red Light", and by the looks of it the lead single, or at least the music video, will be available on the 3rd! As well as this, a group picture of them was released earlier today and audio previews for 2 new songs were released both yesterday and today.
