Jpop: Cherrsee (チェルシー)

The thing that was noticed when japanese group Cherrsee debuted this spring was that that they were created by the very successful korean producer Brave Brothers. This wasn't obvious in their debut "Mystery", but with this autumn's "White Shirt" you can clearly hear the sounds that sounds very much like their korean "sister group" Brave Girls.

Kpop: Dorothy (도로시)

All images are from the normal version of "Purple Lips"

The debut of kpop group Dorothy is quite nice, but that in itself may prove a problem as rookies most of all needs to stand out somehow to get that needed attention. And in regards to the color, if one follow the lyrics the color should not be taken to literal - it instead implies the color your lips gets when you are really frozen, which is implied in this case as they sing about being badly dumped and cold because of it.  ;-)

Jpop/Kpop: AoA - Oh Boy

After a long period of success, korean kpop ladies AoA is trying their luck on the japanese market with the dedicated single "Oh Boy", which seemingly is about a shy man learning how to be a 'real man' under the supervision of the fair femme's of AoA. The video is great if you like AoA's charms since before - musically it is a bit repetitive but OK.

Kpop: Lizzy (리지)

My favorite in korean trio Orange Caramel has always been Lizzy, so it's fun to to see her release her solo debut, and it is suitable "OC" in the concept: they put her into the 1960 movie 'Chunhyangjeon' which is a classic love story where she sings about not being easy to get.

Kpop: Boys Republic - Video Game

The theme of Boys Republic new video says it all "Video game" and as a lifetime gamer I must approve of this concept. ;-)

Kpop; Teen Top - Miss Right

The more mature single from Teen Top's latest album, I wanna love, is followed up by a more easy-going song and video called Miss Right. For me personally, while being quite fun, I will be listening more to I wanna love in my iphone, but the video is worth watching (and it comes in a pure dance version too).
