True , we are a country of mixed races, mixed habits and mixed culture. We are influenced by the Spaniards with the Catholic Religion, the Americans with Education, and several others that made us one heck of a race. Now, several decades later, our airwaves are constantly being bugged by songs with dialects we barely understand. From the beautiful faces of the F4 dudes in Meteor Garden, here comes a scene we expect would not leave soon: Korean Pop or KPop.

Let me feed you with the current of Kpop, before it leaves you hanging like a Teru teru bozu on a window pane.

GIRL GROUPS

1.) Wondergirls

They were the first to invade the land with their song 'Nobody'. Right now, their member Sunmi was replaced due to her education. The members were SunHye, Ye Eun, Yoo Bin, So Hee and Hae Rim who replaced Sunmi.






2.) 2NE1

This is the Kpop girl group we should be proud of. Sandara Park, once the country's 'krung-krung' sweetheart now sings for this equally talented quartet composed of Chae-Rim or CL, Bom, Minzy and of course, Sandara Park. Their hit songs were 'Fire', 'Lollipop' and 'I don't care.

Spell Girl Group? Hey, number doesn't matter, right? this 9-member group under SM Entertainment recently hit big with their ever-changing songs, shirts and to die for choreography. I personally like this group because of their wits, talents and faces. They were the current endorsers of LG Chocolate Phone along with another group, f(x) and the Seoul, South Korea's endorsers with Super Junior and Dongbangshinki or DBSK. Their rise to fame song was 'Gee' that ousted the record of Wonder Girls' 'Nobody' from the charts.

They recently collaborated with Super Junior with the 'Seoul Song' to promote the city's beautiful places to go to. Their other hit songs were Genie (Sowoneul Malhaebwa) and Oh! The members of this big group were, TaeYon, Jessica, Sunny, Sooyoung, YoonA, Tiffany, Hyohyeon, Seohyun and my personal favorite, Yuri.



BOY GROUPS

1.) Big Bang
Initially a six-member group, one member dropped out during the airing of the 'Big Bang Documentary' show before the official debut, leading to their current line-up of, G-Dragon, T.O.P., Daesung, Taeyang and Seungri. By the end of 2009, Big Bang became the most searched artist in South Korea. They also became the first foreign group in Japan to receive the Japan Cable Broadcasting Award for "Best Newcomer" and the first from Korea to receive the Japan Records honor.In recent years, the members have branched out to do solo activities: Taeyang and G-Dragon released solo materials while T.O.P, Daesung, and Seungri started acting. Their Songs include 'The Last Farewell', 'My Heaven' and 'Gara gara Go'.



2.) DongBangShinKi or DBSK or TVXQ

Their name translates as "The Rising Gods of the East". TVXQ made their debut on December 26, 2003 during a BoA and Britney Spears showcase, where they performed their debut single "Hug" and an rendition of "O Holy Night " with BoA. Since then, Korea and Japan can't get enough with this handsome quintet composed of Xiah Junsu, Micky Yoochun, Max Changmin, Hero Jaejoong and U-Know Yunho. Their album, 'Mirotic' topped several Korean and Japanese charts making these guys a hot talent to boot.


3.) Super Junior'

Yes. My favorite above all the Korean Groups that has ever risen on this planet. Super Junior is a 13-member boy band, making them the biggest boy band in the whole world. they debut in 2005 with their single 'U. These cute boys were trained by Sm Entertainment to be flexible in the fields of singing, dancing, acting, hosting and modeling. With those talents and those pretty faces, what more could a girl ask for? I say none. Their hit songs include U, Sorry, Sorry, It's You and Don't Don. The group were also divided into sub-groups to expand their musical genres. The sub-groups were Super Junior-H, Super Junior-T, Super Junior-K.R.Y and Super Junior-M.

The members, if you can memorize it in one minute were Leeteuk, Heechul, Kangin, Hankyung, Shindong, Yesung, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Ryeowook, Kibum and my favorites, Kyuhyun and Donghae.
