Got7 Wins First Ever #1 On "The Show". Congratulations Boys!

I'm so happy for Got7 right now. Although the win might have been on "The Show", a cable program famous for giving out awards to less known groups that aren't doing specifically well on the charts, it's still a huge deal for this group. They debuted a little over one and a half year ago and have made several comebacks, and despite having built up a pretty big fanbase they still haven't been able to score a win on a weekly music show. As sad as that might be I'm actually happy they won now and not sooner, because "If You Do" has proven to be their best comeback as of yet. And yes, a review is on its way, I promise!

Here's to many more wins for this amazing group. I love these boys so much.

My Prayers Have Been Answered! Nana Is Blonde Again And Everything Is Beautiful



So, Orange Caramel performed at the opening ceremony of Ulsan the 50th National Skills Competition yesterday (I don't know what that is, and I couldn't care less) and despite looking lovely as usual, apart from the clothes perhaps, they also surprised fans with a sudden hair-change.

NANA IS BLONDE AGAIN!

Nana, as you may know, is one of my ultimate female biases ever, and while I think she looks gorgeous is whatever hair color I have really missed her blonde hair. She went brunette after years of being blonde about two years ago, and since then she's sported a much darker color. Having the face and body she does it's impossible for her not to look amazing, but with the blonde hair she's not only one but about a thousand levels above everyone else. Blonde hair takes her from gorgeous to goddess.



Probably the change is because of the upcoming Orange Caramel comeback, which I'm also very excited about, and although I would have loved to have her hair long as well I'll take this blonde haircut over everything else. Finally my divine queen is back in her most powerful form and I can't wait for her to go out there and slay all the competition.

EDIT:

Nana posted some pictures on Instagram. I'm dead

Two More "Little Sister" Groups Debut In The Form Of April & Dia



The K-pop market is as of now very populated. There are a ridiculous amount of groups and new ones are debuting what feels like every other day. Naturally this means that it's difficult for companies to get the names of their groups out there, especially ones that are less well known. However recently a new phenomenon has arisen, because with so many new girl groups debuting these last two years some of them have been referred to as "little sister groups". This means they're debuting with a company already housing one or several other semi-popular groups and are using their names to get the new groups publicity. It happened with Lovelyz, Oh My Girl and Sonamoo, and now there are two more. Meet April, Kara's little sisters, and Dia, T-ara's younger siblings.

A Live Version of Day6's "Colors" Surfaces The Web; Let's Celebrate!



I have been craving this ever since I first heard the song on Day6's awesome debut album "The Day". "Colors" is such an amazing, beautiful and powerful track and the sound of the song is just right up my alley. The boys recently performed at Zandari Festa, South Korea's biggest music showcase festival (which in itself is huge for them), and they played "Colors". I've been watching this performance so many times now because although the sound quality of the video isn't spectacular you can still hear how great they are.

There were also a few solo fancams, which I'm thankful for of course, and the ones that stood out to me the most were (as expected) Sungjin's and YoungK's. I literally cannot get over how amazing Sungjin's voice is and how impressed I am by his vocal control. He easily sounds the most stable out of all of them. And YoungK, well, let's just say I'm slightly smitten by him. Just slightly.

Song of the Week #50

Song Mino - Fear (Ft. Taeyang) on Show Me The Money 4



As you may or may not know (most probably the former), Winner's very own Mino was a contestant on the fourth season of Show Me The Money. I did not follow the show because it's messy and embarrassing, so it was by accident I came across this performance from the semi-finals. "Fear" is one of the best song's I've heard all year, period. This is rap done right, as it's both emotionally evoking and incredibly heartfelt, and Minho pours his heart out in this performance. This has been on repeat ever since I heard it. Amazing.
