5 Things I LOVED in K-pop: 4/29 – 5/5
The following are the 5 Things that happened in K-pop last week that I think were a bit more special than the rest. If you’re not up-to-date on your K-pop and dislike spoilers than read no further or you definitly may be spoiled.
5. Hanguk Hula
It was Kids King week on Star King and the Hawaiian in me could just not pass up including these three cuties who love dancing hula.

4. The Moon represents Fei’s Heart
It would be a crime to not include Fei’s winning performance on Dancing with the Stars Korea 3 from this week’s 5 Things. She performed an emotionally charged rumba to the song “The Moon Represents My Heart” a song made famous by Teresa Teng in the 1970s and a favorite of her mother’s which she had so many memories of. What was also awesome about the performance is that Fei recorded herself singing the song for them to dance to.

3. Shinhwa Shines on SNL Korea
Shinhwa‘s appearance as hosts on Saturday Night Live was definitely one not to miss. The K-pop Kings of K-variety didn’t disappoint and really pushed the 19+ envelope. Here’s my fave skit from the night, the boys in a museum display because you know, they’re ancient in K-pop.

2. I Like Big Butts…
On the last episode of Weekly Idol, INFINITE were guests and were granting some unusual requests from fans. A fan of Dong-woo asked him to rate the members’ butts since he’s known to like hitting their butts. What followed was a brief, but hilariously specific description of each of his members’ derrières. Spread ‘em boys.

1. Hyori Makes a Royal Return
Lee Hyori made her long awaited return with the release of “Miss Korea” which she composed herself. The song is a teaser for her album which will be released on May 21st. It’s her first release since 2010′s H-Logic which was unfortunately embroiled in plagiarism controversies. The song reached an All-Kill upon its release and I can understand why–love the song and the MV. Watch out nugus, Hyori’s back.
