KPop

Ahhhh K-Pop, how do I explain our relationship.  Well, first of all, you hear these songs all over the place.  Second of all, they are super catchy...even when you don't know what they are saying.  I'm actually developing a genuine affection for these songs.

First up, is Big Bang.  Big Bang is a boy band that is super hot right now.  Most of my girl students have crushes on them and know all the words to the songs.  "Fantastic Baby" is one of their big songs right now and all my students like singing the chorus...and even the parody "Fantastic Chicken."

Enjoy the costuming and hairstyles...No, I don't know what this video's about, sorry^_^

While Big Bang is my newest find, the Wonder Girls will always be my first KPop love.  This song was really popular this winter.  And I love it.  It's just so peppy.  I think Wonder Girls are actually trying to cross over to the West with all the tweens.  Good luck to them!

Don't bother with their all English version though...it's not as good.

Enjoy this little cultural exchange!
