Kpop: Brown Eyed Girls - Warm Hole & Brave New World

The BEG has returned and as they now get closer to their 10 year anniversary, they have both shared and solo success behind them, so what can they do to get some more attention beyond appeal to their existing fan base? The sexual innuendo of "Warm Hole" was hard to make more explicit without being just explicit (which Korean censorship rules prevent), but visually and especially musically it was just meh. "Brave New World", though, is another case. The video is a spacey affair with almost retroesque scifi looks (this must be just up Narsha's alley I think), and the song is also quite catchy.

Kpop: Navi (나비)

This was really going to be about Phantom's comeback track "New Era", but as LOEN entertainment so ridicously showed a stripper instead of Navi, who does a central part of the singing. I dont really object to the explicit sexuality (even though its unusual for kpop) so much as not letting the female counterpart feature due to ?what? reasons. I mean she's even quite beautiful, too. So instead I am dedicating this one to Navi ;-P
PS And yes, New Era is a nice song regardless of the videos shortcomings... DS
