Star Life Theater EP 4.
Yuri exercising, Yoona and Sica was profiled. No Taengoo but I figured as much as she doesn't really have another schedule going on right now and she's one of the more intro members to let them document her personal life.

BTS of filming new Goobne CF, be on the lookout for more chicken commercials.

Not really a comeback, but it looks awesome. So sad to see the other 4minute girls getting so little attention though...
They're like the other girls in Pussycat Dolls. Almost no one knows their names, but they're still kind of famous, and make a lot more money than the average person without having to do a whole lot of work. Not a bad deal I'd say. If not for Hyuna they'd be nothing so they can't really complain.
Dunno about that, I'm sure they were compelled to become idols for some reason and being glorified back up dancers probably wasn't one of them. Especially when Gayoon and Jiyoon are so much more talented than Hyunah.
What's funny is that I clearly remember when they debuted everyone was hating on Hyunah and saying how annoying her rapping/personality was. A lot of people were saying they wish the group had debuted sans Hyunah. Now look where we are :lol and I was defending Hyunah back then.
And although no one seems to care I'm posting this because this is definitely one of the most solid debut songs this year:

Charisma and stage presence is a talent as well, and Hyuna shines more than most in k-pop in general.
I love 4Minute as a group and the other members but demand regular Hyuna solo releases.

Hyunah and Sohyun are the only memorable members of 4minute when it comes to stage performances. The others are boring and already being far outdone by rookies like Dal Shabet. If they want some recognition they should put, you know, something into it.
Sohyun is an odd choice. Jiyoon showed lots of charisma on Immortal Song, and in the group. I think they work together as a group, as a hip-hop-pop posse, when the music fits (HuH), not so much when they try more anonymous k-pop tunes like Heart to Heart.
dal shabet is a bizarre comparison

Interview at the end! KAWAII.
Jet Coaster Love is definitely one of my favourites. I love the "WOO!" so much.

I got a dose of just how big kpop is getting today.
I met my wife for lunch in center city Philly, and I decided to walk home after because it is such a nice day. I was crossing the street at city hall, when I heard one of these two girls behind me say "yeah, f(x) and shinee haven't really put out anything new." I was taken by surprise and turned around and said "Wow, are you talking about kpop?" They couldn't believe I knew anything about it either.

This made me smile
5th Music Bank win. A 6th win might be a stretch, possible T-ara vs WG next week with an upset by T-ara which would be sad as WG would only get the token Mcountdown win.
How often does a group win on those music shows because they actually have the best song at the moment, as opposed to simply because they have the biggest fan base of all the groups promoting at that time?
And I really like 4minute with songs like are on Hit Your Heart, but yeah when they go more poppy it's even worse than SNSD album filler.

Well you can look at the various shows' way of scoring nominees, they're detailed here and there. Sales count, but fan bases can steamroll. Having said that it's not uncommon for an artist to win because of a song or something other than the biggest fan base. G.Na won with her debut. Not deserved, in my opinion, but she did. Other solo artists we never talk about here win from time to time. SNSD will win no matter what but groups like 4Minute and T-ara and Sistar depend on a song taking off.
SNSD deserve it, though, looking past our subjective opinions - because their songs are popular among the general population - they're near the top for digital sales and album sales. SuJu win without the backing of anyone but ELFs. Their songs sell like shit, but fans buy truckloads of their postcard-padded albums.

Their sporty songs are excellent. pretty much all their singles are like that plus filler. every minialbum they have though plus 4 minutes left has one emotional ballad that blows
they are still my most favorite kpop group :]
HuH is a classic
In all fairness "The Boys" is better than "Be My Baby". I think we can all agree on that no?
Is Cry Cry on the shows yet? That's easily better than both of them.
Mcountdown and Inkigayo are known to manipulate their scoring system for ratings while Music Bank uses sales for the majority of their scoring. A lot of the scoring in Mcountdown/Inkigayo can be manipulated to allow the show to pick who wins.
Mcountdown's scoring:
DIGITAL SALES = 40%
ALBUM SALES = 10%
ASIA FAN VOTING = 15%
MUSIC INTELLECTUAL AFFINITY = 10%
REAL TIME CHARTS = 15%
SMS VOTING = 10%
Inkigayo:
Music Chart (Cyworld, Dosirak, Soribada) : 60%
Album Chart (Hanteo & Synnara) : 5%
SBS Inkigayo Homepage voting : 5%
Research (World Research) : 20%
Broadcast time ( Air monitor) : 10%
Music Bank:
Digital Sales: 60%
Album Sales: 15%
Broadcast Frequency: 15%
Viewer's rating: 10%
A little history on MNet and SM that is interesting.

Nope. Its the weakest comeback song for a girl group this year.

Can't say that The Boys is a very good song tbh, but somehow it manages to be pretty great live. I really don't think Wonder Girls is anywhere close to the performances SNSD are doing.
T-AWA
HEY
Define weakest.
Im not saying the boys is facemelting awesome, but it is solid. Again, it is better than WG comeback song.
