The Epic Battle begins:Dong Bang Shin Ki vs. Big Bang!!!

With the upcoming return of many pop acts, comparisons are inevitable.

This time around, the battle is between boys men. The return of DBSK after 1.7 years in Japan has caused excitement among fans with their interestingly named title song, “Mirotic”.

Already, within 3 days of its release, “Mirotic” has climbed up to #1 on the KTF Dosirak’s most wanted with over 300,000 CDs preordered. In order to keep up with the demand, the record co had to push back the release date by two days. With so much attention and hype these boys are receiving, Big Bang has their work cut out for them when they return in November.

As of now, the first real battle between the idol groups will transpire on the SBS program “Family Outing”, which will air on October 12 & 19, 2008, where Daesung of Big Bang is part of the cast and Yunho and Junsu of DBSK will appear as guests. And most likely, the boys of DBSK and Big Bang will duke it out for cast member Lee Hyori, who has doted on Daesung all throughout the show’s airing.

Until then, keep your paper and pens out and track these two groups in the battle of the year.

As of now, DBSK is ahead by a point for breaking the highest presale order since the release of Seo Taiji’s 8th album in 2004.

DBSK - 1
Big Bang - pending

Wonder Girls haven't change!!!

After all the hype, the Wondergirls trade in their Flinstones leopard prints for retro sequins and black pleather for their comeback stage on KBS program, “Music Bank” on September 26th. Although their outfits and song have changed, the booty shaking still remains.

How old are they again?

Father SM is banking On Dong Bang Shin Ki!!!

DBSK made their first television appearance on SBS’ “Chocolate” on September 27, 2008, where they shared the same stage with Ye Eun, a blind piano playing prodigy who also appeared on twice on Star King and won each time she appeared.

Although pictures can be worth a thousand words, and obviously, each picture shows the compassion and kindness of the DBSK members for this girl, out of these thousand words “well plotted ploy” also come to mind.

It is true that DBSK can care for this little girl greatly, however, with every appearance DBSK makes, one cannot help but also see Father SM looking down enjoying the money and attention his company receives due to such appearances.

Father Sm has concocted the perfect image for a successful money making product, DBSK.
