The fabulous Wonder Girls have released a fresh new PV for the Japanese debut EP Nobody for Everybody. The talented K-pop idol group are also making waves due to their new international, English song Like Money! Wonder Girls are back with a brand new PV for the Japanese version of Nobody (one of my favourite songs – there’s a dodgy video of me performing the dance/singing along out there on Facebook somewhere…).
I love their new colour scheme and concept – the girls look so fresh! Ikiyou!
Love me like

Don’t feed into them lies
Want you by my side
Why is it so hard to trust me?
Let go of your fears girl

It’s here! Wonder Girls’ Like Money MV featuring Akon! The video is daebak! This is why I love Wonder Girls – beautiful harmonies and fantastic dance moves.
He is mine
I’m the only thing on his mind
He thinks about me all the time
He got my love everywhere
Nobody treats him like I do
There’s no party if I’m not in the booth
My song keeps in heart in tune
like ba-da-da-da-dam-dam
He loves me and I love him too
He plays me all the night through
He keeps me spinning and grinning
I’m grining all over from you singing la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Everyday la-la-la-la-la-la-la
He sings with me la-la-la-la-la-la-la
He knows me, he holds me from intro to fade

Chorus 1
Cause the DJ is mine
And girl you’re wasting your time
He only rocks to my music
He loves the way I do it all night~
The DJ is mine
~My baby, m-my baby baby~
The DJ is mine
~My baby, m-my baby baby~
He only rocks to my music
He loves the way I do it all night
The DJ is mine
Girl please, don’t you even try
My baby, keeps me by his side
Even though you keep giving him the eye
He don’t even notice
Everyday la-la-la-la-la-la-la
He sings with me la-la-la-la-la-la-la
He knows me, he holds me from intro to fade

Rap 1
I’m what he’s listening to
I’m blasting through his headphones
It’s me he falling in love with
Yeah I got his head gone
He can’t even answer the phone
My music keeps turning him on
Uh-on and on, uh-uh-on and on and on
Rap 2
He say, she say – I say I own the DJ
Stay at the top of his charts I am the airplay
Flier than airplanes
I know you hear me
In case you didn’t, let me reiterate
Let me re- let me re- let me reiterate
He is mine
I’m the only thing on his mind
He thinks about me all the time
He got my love everywhere

I transcribed these lyrics myself so if you take them for your site or blog, please give me a link back to my blog! That’s all I ask! I think the lyrics are pretty accurate – the only bit I’m not too sure is Sohee’s ‘spinning and grinning, I’m grinning~’ part but everything else is spot on! (including the tricky ‘intro to fade~’ bit – that was harder to hear!).
What do you think? I really love the song! Wonder Girls are really doing great things at the moment.
I know I haven’t posted in what seems like forever… I’m so busy with work that I don’t have too much time to devote to the blog anymore but I still love it! And love you for taking the time read it.
So I know I’m out by a couple of days but I wanted to quickly recap my favourite Korean songs of 2011. This year there has been some fantastic comebacks, some brilliant debuts and all kinds of amazing music. I definitely think 2011 was a vintage year for K-pop. My personal highlight has been the resurgence of the girl idol groups and, what I’ll refer to it as, the Winter Battle of the Girl Groups (narf!).
So, without further ado – here are my favourite songs from 2011 (in a rough kind of order).
T-ara – Roly Poly
For those that read this blog, you will know that T-ara are my favourite band. I’m a little sad that they don’t seem to have such a big fan base outside of Korea. The girls came back stronger than ever in 2011 with the release of their smash-hit, Roly Poly. Featuring a retro concept and disco beats – the song captured number one on many charts and has even become one of the biggest hits of the year.
The Roly Poly MV also marked the first in the lineof 10 minute+ MVs from the girls. The song was so popular that they’ve made a musical based around it! Their remix version, Roly Poly in Copacabana also proved to be hit. To date, Roly Poly is my third most played song of all time (behind Utada Hikaru’s Show Me Love and Adele’s Set Fire to the Rain; in fact if you combine plays with the remix it is my most listened to song).
Wonder Girls – Be My Baby
In the midst of the girl group comebacks, Wonder Girls returned with a hot new hit, Be My Baby. Featuring an MV similar to Beyonce’s Single Ladies, catchy choreography and a funky melody you’d think they were destined to hit the top spot, right? But there doubts. I had such doubts!
The girls had been away for what seemed like ages. Yes, they came back with 2 Different Tears in 2010 but it has been a couple of years since Nobody – their last fully promoted single in Korea. 2 years in pop music can be a lifetime. So many new groups had debuted in that time, and with the Girls away in America working on cracking the USA, some thought they might not do so well.
However, these fears were soon put to rest as they debuted on Korean music shows and started winning awards and much love from fans. I love the Wonder Girls – they are my joint second favourite group after T-ara.
Girls’ Generation – The Boys
Girls’ Generation cemented their place as the dominate girl group with the release of The Boys, their first international single (complete with a full English version). Whilst the song didn’t have as much impact on international charts it was a massive hit in Korea and continues to chart well.
KARA – Step
After setting the Oricon charts alight with their Japanese promotions, all eyes were on KARA as they made their Korean comeback. I love KARA – I love that they have a very distinct sound, I describe it as having a driving beat – their songs are easily identifiable with the strong percussion and focus on rousing choruses. I love them! In fact, Step, Mister and Honey are all some of my favourite songs.
2011 may have seen their Japanese promotions skyrocket but their Korean career looked like it may collapse at any minute. The beginning of the year saw much of the band embroiled in a heated contract controversy that saw a large backlash against the band.
However, the girls returned with much fanfare and their single, Step, went on to be a huge hit and one of my favourite songs of the year.
Trouble Maker – Trouble Maker
A late entry from Hyuna (4Minute) and Hyunseung (BEAST) – label mates of Cube Entertainment. Joining together to create one of the catchiest singles of 2011!
Out of all the music shows K-pop fans can watch, Inkigayo has always been my favourite. Perhaps because it’s the last one of the week (it’s shown on Sundays) or perhaps because I always think the stages are more dramatic which in turn means the performers give it an extra 10%. Wonder Girls’ performance of 2 Different Tears on Inkigayo did nothing to change my mind on which of the music shows is the best.
The audience was amazing and whilst their performance wasn’t as polished as much as other acts (SNSD and 2PM spring to mind in giving absolutely flawless live performances), the Girls really bring something different to the stage. They all have unique personalities and they perform as entertainers – not just singers or dancers. I think the Wonder Girls are something unique in the K-pop industry, a band that aren’t afraid to be themselves and collaborate with their management on their career. May the Wonder Girls forever be together~! hwaiting! Although I’m sad they won’t be performing this in Korea for much longer :(
The Wonder Girls are back! And they’re back with a hip, cool, funky new song! I’m so impressed by it! It’s so catchy and it’s already in my top 25 played playlist on my ipod so you know I’ve been listening to it non-stop ^_^ I’m really surprised by Lim’s vocals though – they’re quite good and she’s not nearly as annoying as people make her out to be. I feel a bit sorry for her, she needs to be given a break :) She’s always really nice on twitter. Anyways! Check out the MV, do you like it? The concept is a bit weird… I think sometimes JYP has ideas and he just runs with them but they don’t always work… you know? Anyways, what I really like about the Wonder Girls is that they all have strong, distinct personalities and they’re never afraid to do something different. They work so hard! Their Chinese skills are also pretty nice ^_~
Ah! so I’m actually beyond excited about this. It seems like forever (how long has it been? almost a year?) since Wonder Girls had any new material out. They’ve debuted in America, toured with the Jonas Brothers but whilst the English version of Nobody was great, it is rather old. But tomorrow that’s all set to change when the girls release their new single, 2 Different Tears. They’ve been really mean and slowly leaked new information – new pictures and small clips of audio. But finally they’ve released an MV teaser. You can’t really hear the song but the MV looks really funny! Check it out below! Check back here tomorrow for the song!!! XD
I may have already posted this… but I’m posting it again! It’s the Wonder Girls! Singing Chinese! Jia you! I quite like it, and it also shows how uber awesome the girls are, talented linguists ^_^
