Today is Thursday and as mentioned last week I'm watching the 2015 boy group debuts video by Soompi to see how many I know, how many I like and if I missed some that I want to check out.
Unlike last week I didn't count the groups I know in the video because it would just confuse everyone if the list here is different. If you haven't seen the video...that's okay, I have you covered^^ I'm listing the groups I like/know/will check below, feel free to comment your lists as well
Welcome to the first Tube Tuesday! The first video is kind of a reaction video but not really? Kyra is looking at the 2015 girl group debuts to see how many she knows and likes. The list is compiled by Soompi (as they have done in the previous years) I'm surprised how they even manage to keep up with the debuts when most of us haven't even heard of the groups.
In the video I'm counting how many groups I know and how many I like, gotta say I've been pretty generous with that. While I do like many of the groups and I'm subscribed to their youtube channels, I don't actually follow any of them closely enough to call myself fan. Maybe that will change this year, who knows. Like I said in the video, there are a few groups that sounded pretty nice so I'm gonna check their videos and maybe I'll be a fan in the future.
After watching the video I cut down the lists a bit so here's the revised list of the groups I actually know (not just heard the name once)/like/will check out:
Welcome to the first edition of Re:K-Pop where we talk a bit about what has happened in K-Pop over the last week.
There really is only one big topic and that's the unnecessary witch hunt against Twice's Tzuyu. Now if you don't know what's going on, there's plenty sites covering it, so I won't get into details. I'm not a fan of Twice and I couldn't tell you which one Tzuyu is on a picture so I originally didn't care about the topic when it first came up but at this point even I am furious. The nerve of this old fart trying to ruin the life of a child (and by extension the whole company) over politics she might not understand or even thought about yet....it's disgusting and very disturbing.
Apart from this, not much has happened so lets talk comebacks. The Winner comeback Inner Circles have been waiting for since forever is coming closer with the release of Pricked a collab of Mino and Taehyun. I don't know what Winner's style is, as I don't follow them but this song actually sounds really nice. Rookies G-Friend who just celebrated their first year anniversary are also close to coming back, they've already released teaser pictures and the tracklist for their 3rd mini album 'Snowflake' on their official twitter. I'm very much looking forward to that one. Next we have 4minute who have postponed their comeback for this month to February which isn't that far away so it's okay. They've apparently teamed up with Skrillex for this one so let's see how that works out. I do like some of his stuff so this should be interesting. Another February comeback will be Rainbow which is way overdue, their last comeback didn't even feel like a comeback with promotions of barely 2 weeks. Let's hope they hit daebak this time.

Welcome to our second part of Who are you ?! This week I am going to introduceJJCCto you.
JJCC debuted on March 14, 2014 with five members : Eddy, Simba, Prince Mak, E.co and San-Cheong. This group is Jackie Chan's first K-Pop group and they were formed under Jackie Chan Group Korea. Their debut single "At First" was released on March 24. While they were promoting "Where You At" the two new members Zica and Yul joined the group.
Their first mini Album "JJCC" was released on August 21, 2014 , which was followed by their second mini album "Ackmong" exactly one year later on August 21, 2015.
2015 is coming to an end and what a year it was. After some technical difficulties and personal problems I'm finally back with my favorite songs of December. As always, songs are in order of release dates and ranking is my personal opinion, don't forget to vote your favorite songs at the end.
Between Daddy and Napal Baji I'm pretty sure most people only like/listen to Daddy. I understand, it's a fun song but there's just something about Napal Baji that makes it sooo much better to me, even tho I listen to Daddy quite a lot, it's not the same quality as Napal Baji to me. Maybe it's the pants
Name: Run Away Artist: Royal Pirates Released: Dec. 1 Rating: 9/10
What can I say, this song is so great, just so so great! I'll be honest, I don't know nearly as much as I could about the boys, I just really enjoy their music and you should definitely check them out if you haven't done so yet.
Name: Eureka Artist: Zico feat. Zion T Released: Dec. 7 Rating: 8/10
This is one of those songs that you listen to once and it's stuck in your head for the rest of eternity. It's so great! Zico is easily one of the best idol rappers and Zion T has one of the best voices i can think of, the beat is sick, the video is so much fun, there was no way this would go wrong. I hope people bring back saying "eureka"
Name: All Artist: Basterd Released: Dec. 10 Rating: 8.5/10
If you don't know Basterd yet, that's totally fine. Just as long as you go check them out right now. They're really cool and I'm still mad bc they came to Germany before I knew about them and I missed it by like 2 weeks T__T They're a Hip Hop Duo and the Song/MV is more on the rough side but please don't judge them on that alone, I mean just watch this dance practice
Name: Gangstagram Artist: Crispi Crunch & DJ DKHT Released: Dec 23 Rating: 9.5/10
Man I love Crispi Crunch! This song goes hard, I mean really hard. I could totally party to it, I really want to and one day I will see the boys live, and if i have to walk to Korea. CSP's rap is awesome, I've been in love with his voice since....I don't even know. Cheezy is one of my fave people, he's just such a cool person, I wish we could be friends. The only reason this didn't get 10/10 from me is bc I wish the song was longer. You NEED to check out Crispi Crunch if you haven't. GO DO IT NOW!
So now on to you, which release did you like best, did your fave make the list? Vote below
