Who will dominate the R&B scene this summer?

0706-rb-gents.jpg
Goodbye sexy borderline slutty divas, the R&B gents are here to take over the k-pop scene! With FTTS, Kim Dong Wan, Soulstar, and 7Dayz & Wanted’s recent comeback coupled with Wheesung and Shin Hae Sung’s upcoming comebacks, there’s no doubt in my mind that male R&B singers are going to dominate the mainstream gayo world for next couple of months. Finally, we get treated with some talented singers who aren’t all about stripping and pole dancing. But be forewarned – there are still some sexy scrap leftover in the industry who are going for the shock value to cut through the clutter. Out of the four groups that already released their albums, who do you think will dominate the R&B scene this summer?

    Despite Fanny’s facial reconstruction, and that the fact that his name means, well, “ass,” I am a die-hard FTTS fan. Go obbas!

    for the fly to the sky clip can someone explain the story properly in the clip for me. i vaguely get it … but just more explanation

  3. 3 Koko July 7, 2007 at 2:26 am

    Wow…Dong Wan looks so different…

  4. 4 jane =] July 7, 2007 at 2:49 am

    ive been waiting so long for FTTS’s comeback! yay for hwanhee

  5. 6 jane =] July 7, 2007 at 2:50 am

    what the hell? it just ate my comment and it wont let me write my long one.

  6. 7 jane =] July 7, 2007 at 2:51 am

    ive been waiting so long for FTTS’s comeback! yay for hwanhee & brian! their MV..is confusing. i need some explanation too but im guessing that the guy has a problem where he keeps sleeping? and he always imagines that his gf is beside him or whatever and they get into a car crash and she dies, but he survives and then he kills himself. idk thats all i get..their song didnt impress me too much, but i missed them and their back, so whatever.

    kim dongwan is sizzling HOTT. i already saw his MV, it was good =] i love his song.

    i have to watch the other MVs, im not very interested in Soulstar and 7 Days & Wanted…

  7. 8 mawee July 7, 2007 at 3:04 am

    yay for RNB! hahaha I just got to laugh @ goodbye to sexy/slutty borderline singers… word~ LOL

    I want FTTS, and Kim Dongwan to dominate, but I kow WHeesung can do it ^^

  8. 10 ilmare July 7, 2007 at 4:01 am

    weird…my first post isn’t showing up =/

  9. 11 gl0rious July 7, 2007 at 5:39 am

    those four photos look like they could all belong to the same album. same clean concept. borderline boring.

  10. 12 Eve July 7, 2007 at 6:26 am

    hmm ~ fly to the sky always does well so I’ll vote for them. I do like Soulstar too…Kim Dong Wan’s new song isn’t bad but eh…nothing spectacular.

  11. 13 o_O July 7, 2007 at 6:45 am

    ftts is great but they need to come up with some new stuff… im personally rooting for soulstar =D
    …, and jane =] : the guy has some sleeping disorder… the girl gets hurt and he tries to take her to the hospital or something when he falls asleep again. that’s kind of dumb =( why would you drive anything if you have a sleep disorder

  12. 14 happi_me.. July 7, 2007 at 7:03 am

    im rootin for SOULSTAR..love their voices..n luv FTTS also..who noes…there are so mani fans..they all are great singers..welps…hope they all do well..

    You seem to have left out Minwoo. His album is gonna be released pretty soon also.

  22. 25 kkes July 7, 2007 at 7:30 pm

    I’ll go for 7Dayz & Wanted – it’s good to see and hear lee jung again ^^.

  25. 28 Chomi July 8, 2007 at 7:56 am

    Yupp. I think FTTS is gonna rule the R&B. Totally.

  26. 29 Christie July 8, 2007 at 12:01 pm

    FTTS for sure. I can bet money on it but Wheesung’s got a lot of potential.

  27. 30 nz fan July 8, 2007 at 7:52 pm

    In the Kim Dong Won MV, could someone tell me who the guy in the white singlet with olive green shirt and cargo pants, hes the one that gets beaten up. Who is he?

  28. 31 popseoul July 8, 2007 at 8:38 pm

    nz fan,

    That’s Yoo Gun – he was originally a member of boyband Oppa in late 90s and he later debuted as an actor.
    He’s currently featured in drama “Bad Couple.”

  29. 32 kiwi_seoul July 9, 2007 at 7:11 am

    hey nz fan, good to see another kiwi interested in the world of kpop! i myself have loved ftts ever since i heard them a couple of years ago. have been into kpop ever since. i am personally looking forward to hearing from soulstar! they are all so suave looking!! Korean voices are so smooth!! Fighting!!

  30. 33 nz fan July 9, 2007 at 8:50 am

    Kiwi_seoul
    yup got into kpop, from living in korea last year. LOVED it. but difficult being home and trying to find out stuff, thats why i love popseoul.

  31. 34 tangy July 9, 2007 at 9:32 am

    hmmmmm who’s that girl in ftts’s video….i swear i’ve seen her before….isn’t she japanese?
    and that guy in dongwan’s video is sooo hawt….how is he?

  32. 35 tangy July 10, 2007 at 3:06 am

    omg i just realized it’s that girl from nana….aoi something something

  33. 36 akg July 14, 2007 at 12:43 pm

    whos the guy in the ftts video? looks familiar.. i dont get the video..

  34. 37 jaenie July 16, 2007 at 2:48 am

    gosh. i’m happy these gents are going to pump up the rest of summer and mayber fall. ahhaha.
    i’m not a big fan of female singers/bands.
    can’t wait for wheesung’s comeback. it’s been awhile since i’ve heard from him.
    all these artists are so good…but i’m sorta rooting more for dongwan and wheesung when he comes back.
    but shoot…7 days & wanted’s MV scared me. hahaha. i didn’t get it either. what was the promise about?

  35. 38 Fobbiyo July 18, 2007 at 3:08 pm

    I’m not sure who’s going to dominate R&B. But I really hope that Dongwan is successful with his first album! The songs are nice. I Love it. and he looks really hot in that picture

  36. 39 keyle August 26, 2007 at 1:08 am

    Soulstar are the most near Rnb/soul music they’re the best of the for but they’re to new and we don’t see them on show so…

  37. 40 hmj November 3, 2007 at 3:56 am

    R&B? hmmmm, but you don’t sing R&B, that is a sound….. and plus…. for me they can’t sing the REAL R&B cuz’ they are not black.
    for that they have to understand the meaning of all those sounds….. and feel it.
    cuz’ right now…they are more interest in the high notes of these sounds provides….and the challenge to sing that….just like BLACK PEOPLE DO. plus…they are training for sing POP, and for singing R&B believe me and this is not for bother of something….but you have to learn to sing and study classic….for obtain that voice.

    my honest opinion…. thanks!°

  38. 41 sandara2ne1 October 29, 2009 at 8:58 pm
