Okay. Before anyone starts throwing things at me for picking Super Junior, a Kpop boy group over just focusing on one cute boy this week, let me plead my case. Having to handpick one cute boy is really tough. Almost kind of stressful, really. The world, it’s full of cute boys — why do I have to settle on just one a week for the Cute Boy of the Week feature? Kpop boy bands in my opinion, were made to address this issue. More »

From Ningin: You know, I thought I knew all the classic Christmas songs, but it seems I totally missed one. There’s a Christmas carol that has 2NE1’s name in it and it’s for Baskin Robbins. Cute wallpapers, and new videos all accompany this promotion. More »

Leave it to me to have a serious girl boner on the one member of a Korean pop (Kpop) boyband who isn’t Korean. Of course, this doesn’t matter really. Thai American Nichkhun, or more lovingly known as Kun, runs with a pack of cute Korean boy band members called 2PM who can sing and dance well. Through Ningin, the other site I manage, I was able to see them live earlier this year, stateside. From then I knew it was all over. This girl boner would never go away. More »

I can already foresee this being a regular series. Our Asian fanatics readers would recognize these oh so pretty boys from the popular KPOP group SHINee. (For some reason I feel like watching Twilight right now.) I don’t know if it’s the hair, the pose, the face, or the fact that they’re all cuddling in bed together, but I’m very drawn to this photo. With all of that in the photo and their naturally light skin, my brain is interpreting them as angels. And maybe there are. Vogue really has the best photographers in the world. More »

Asian Pop Princess BoA Kwon has made her way to the big apple this year with her English single “Eat You Up”. Known as the best of Asia, she’s been training for three years to take her reputation aboard and now we can finally see the fruits of her labor.

Tonight, she will be performing in Times Square for a live audience for a select few. Even if you can’t make it, sister site Ningin will be hosting an exclusive interview with the Apop diva on December 5.

BoA is one of my favorite Apop artists. Most people who aren’t into Asia media don’t know her (sadly) but hopefully they’ll get to now that she’s in the U.S. She’s been in music the majority of her life and widely popular for her talent in singing and dancing. I guess you could say she’s the Madonna of Korea – even though she’s old(er) now, she’s still just as popular.
