2007 Asia Song Festival Press Conference

0923 all

Attendees of 2007 Asia Song Festival gathered yesterday to hold a press conference at Shila Hotel and embarrassingly none of the Korean groups showed their face. What a nice way to treat your guests who travelled so far to attend the event! We at POPSEOUL!, as representatives of Korea would like to formally apologize for DBSK, Lee Hyori, Super Junior, SG Wannabe and FT Island’s absences.

0923 a-mei0923 a-mei20923 a-mei30923 a-mei4

Pop diva A-mei (Taiwan) also looks like she belongs on Hooker Hill. The skimpy dress accessorized with fishnet stockings and red pumps don’t do justice to her gorgeous face.

F4 (Taiwan) Can’t complain about four well-dressed pretty boys. Too bad that they have to go back to Taiwan after the concert.

0923 golf and mike0923 golf and mike2

Golf & Mike (Thailand) must love shinny fabrics…

0923 gigi0923 gigi20923 yang

Gigi Leung’s (HK) tall figure and sassy hair support her mico mini, but her boots totally killed the look. Sexy pumps might have done the trick.

0923 kuraki mai0923 kuraki mai20923 kuraki mai3

Kuraki Mai’s (Japan) curtain hair and waitress outfit make me forget that she’s a top singer in Japan.

0923 peterpan30923 peterpan0923 peterpan2

Peterpan (Indonesia) Please excuse my lack of knowledge of this rock band, but can someone please tell the guys in navy shorts and shirt that ankle socks are now available for sale? While you are at it, gently tell him that his 9:1 ratio hairpart is way too unnatural. But love the name of the band!

0923 lam truong20923 lam truong

Lam Truong (Vietnam) looks more like a manager than a singer.

0924 vicki zhao0924 vicki zhao2

Vicki Zhao’s (China) dress is one size too big for her to look good in it.

    they had such lame excuses too.
    how disappointing

  2. 2 nacom202 September 23, 2007 at 11:09 am

    ROFLMAO, poor Lam Trường…but hey, vietnamese people usually wear suits to formal events anyways. but wow…omo, he made it to the asia song festival, whoosh.
    Vicki Zhao…huh…true about the dress though…
    I wonder why the other people are absent? Goodness! No respect for their fellow asian celebs?

  3. 3 Yeon Hee September 23, 2007 at 11:09 am

    Of course SuJu is busy but why didn’t the others come? F.T. Island would look so cute~!!

  4. 4 Nanda September 23, 2007 at 11:11 am

    It’s wrong Kuraki Mali. It’s not Mali is Mai

  5. 5 snowpanda September 23, 2007 at 11:16 am

    great. every countries top singers comes to the event except Korea…. And there were so many of them supposed to come right?!?! So how in the world did all of them not show up?!?

  6. 6 lazybum September 23, 2007 at 11:17 am

    why didn’t the korean celebs attend?? o.O and F4 is looking so fine.

  7. 7 lyn September 23, 2007 at 11:20 am

    ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww….golf and mike, I hate them with a passion.

    Their one song is called, “I’m busy, I’m busy, because I’m dancing.” Pretty much through out the whole song, they keep saying that. And that is how bad they are. No joke, they suck ass.

  8. 8 kitty September 23, 2007 at 11:22 am

    lol
    gigi. she’s not that popular here XP

  9. 9 sLaVe September 23, 2007 at 11:26 am

    i thought BoA would at least be there seeing as she was/is the model for KMTV/MTVK

    -sLaVe

  10. 10 amareally September 23, 2007 at 11:29 am

    OMG !! Peterpan ?? seriously ??? I’m Indonesian, but seeing Peterpan (with that outfit) just made me wish that they send some other band… But hey atleast they’re not sending SLANK. And peterpan is NOT a rock band.

  11. 11 Angie September 23, 2007 at 11:35 am

    so no korean stars ended up showing up for this event?

  12. 12 yoomi September 23, 2007 at 11:37 am

    no koreans =.=
    thats very disappointing!!

  13. 13 Mics September 23, 2007 at 11:41 am

    Why would anyone want to dress like a hooker?

  14. 14 lolo September 23, 2007 at 11:44 am

    what’s with korean’s bands attitude? if i was one of those guests, i would feel offended though… seriously…

    Go PETERPAN…!!!!

  15. 15 tangy September 23, 2007 at 11:50 am

    yayness! some of my favorite people in the world ^.^
    F4<3<3<3
    and vicki of course

    but no korean celebs ):

  16. 16 *~*cheonsa*~* September 23, 2007 at 12:01 pm

    dbsk only flew in from japan just before the ASF they performed and were amazing and suju arrived at the stadium early (was there) i dunno why the others didn’t attend the press conference though but they performed

    but yeah the ASF was amazing everyone who was billed performed and it was wow made me like artists i didn’t like before (golf & mike) lol but hmm yeah dun bash dbsk for not being at the press conference the fact that they flew back only hours before the performance just so they can be there is amazing enough

  17. 17 kpopfan September 23, 2007 at 12:25 pm

    I believe TVXQ was performing in Japan earlier in the day so they actually had a valid reason for not being able to get to Korea earlier. I don’t know about the others.

  18. 18 ja syu September 23, 2007 at 12:30 pm

    quite sad 2 know about the absentees of the korean bands…but we need 2 understand their busyness….but at least send singer 2 represent korea!!!korea is coming up b’cuz of the entertainment industry…they should at least send 1 singer…poor administration…

  19. 19 fly me to the moon September 23, 2007 at 12:38 pm

    none of those celebs are hot
    dang.

    except for a-mei from taiwan
    shes cute..

    id also feel offended if korean pops didn’t show
    but if they had certain circumstances
    you can’t help that.

  20. 20 Pviolet September 23, 2007 at 12:47 pm

    I guess the korean artist reps have their own excuses not to show up during the press con.
    Plus,there are lots of artist attending the event and i can imagine the press con table will be the longest PC table ever if all the artist came!!hihi

  21. 21 starz12 September 23, 2007 at 12:48 pm

    f4 ken..vic is getting hotter and hotter..and jerry’s hair didn’t change at al…and what the hell happen to ken…his hair doesn’t look too good and of vourse vanness is always gorgeous..

  22. 22 Kurisu September 23, 2007 at 1:01 pm

    No Philippine representative?!

  23. 23 Eve September 23, 2007 at 1:20 pm

    Barbie was the Phillipine representative but I guess she didn’t go either. The concert was pretty good - I have to say that AMEI was AMAZING! But of course DBSK and Super Junior blew up the house…I have no voice this morning… >_<

  24. 24 sushiloverice September 23, 2007 at 1:27 pm

    DBSK flew from Japan after the premium event[WHICH WAS AS AMAZING AS THE FESTIVAL] and reached there at 4..u can’t blame them..blame their schedule..whereas for the others who were at Korea at that time..i have no idea..

  25. 25 jo_TVXQ September 23, 2007 at 1:51 pm

    plzz b more considerate towards TVXQ!!!!!!
    they hv tons of work loads to settle!!!!!!!!
    TVXQ HWATING!!

  26. 26 anna September 23, 2007 at 2:01 pm

  27. 27 janepak September 23, 2007 at 2:13 pm

    bad bad impression the korean artists gave-_- i’m very disappointed.

  28. 28 amabelle September 23, 2007 at 2:25 pm

    wah. Barbie didnt show up? aww.
    i guess each country has their own style when it comes to fasion..?

    will this be broadcasted in korea? when?

  29. 29 May September 23, 2007 at 2:35 pm

    omo! omo! Golf & Mike still looking sexy as ever! whoo!
    Where the hell is Kat-tun, SMAP, Lar En Ciel or NEWS from Japan? wahhh! I want to see Jin and Kame ^_^

  30. 30 Jess1tym September 23, 2007 at 2:40 pm

    wow..how rude! It’s kind of like insulting. I recognize all the singers except the one from Japan, Indonesia, & Vietnam.

  31. 31 dbskfreak93 September 23, 2007 at 3:00 pm

    go peterpan!!!
    eventhough i’m not indonesian, i still love them!!
    and one more thing, they are not a rock band!!

  34. 34 JaeHin September 23, 2007 at 3:45 pm

  35. 35 Blo September 23, 2007 at 3:55 pm

    That’s pretty insulting.

    Vick, I love you, but that dress is no good.

  36. 36 mawee September 23, 2007 at 4:08 pm

    wow zhao whei~ looking good as always !! and F4 is still around?!?! heehee. nice to hear that.

    way I see it, these korean stars seem to be stuck up! <.<

  37. 37 I am your DeathNote September 23, 2007 at 4:15 pm

    haha! –>*pointing at Korea! Oh well..I’m sure they were all too super busy. whatever. =_=

  38. 38 *~*cheonsa*~* September 23, 2007 at 4:27 pm

    barbie is in the top picture stripy top & jeans popseoul just didn’t comment on her

  39. 39 noemi September 23, 2007 at 4:28 pm

    hi Eve & amabelle,

    isn’t that Barbie Almabis between Kuraki Mai and Amei in the Press Conference Pix? i guess popseoul just didn’t feature the Philippine representative in the article.

    i googled and saw some more photos of the press conference in this site: http://www.wireimage.com/GalleryListing.asp?navtyp=GLS====290643&str=&styp=&sfld=&nbc1=1&sortval=1d

    check it out.

  40. 40 heyleadinglady September 23, 2007 at 4:33 pm

    F4 = smoking fine

  41. 41 annexiah_25 September 23, 2007 at 4:49 pm

  42. 42 tangerine September 23, 2007 at 5:06 pm

    geez, that kuraki girl sure has an electrecuted hair! lol

  43. 43 b0mii September 23, 2007 at 5:43 pm

    not even 1 korean band =.=;;
    i want to go to the concert!!
    it`s free for singaporeans right??!??
    but no money to go there myself & back to singapore..
    didn`t know Peterpan would be there..

  44. 44 amabelle September 23, 2007 at 5:57 pm

    thanks noemi. i am happy that she showed up. and looking decent. =)

  45. 45 *~*cheonsa*~* September 23, 2007 at 6:29 pm

    it was free for everyone as far as i know…. there was a payed option and if you payed you got to be a VIP with a guaranteed seat number in the front… but other than that you applied online and got free tickets and unless you were fanclub (ft, cassiopeia, elf & some hyolee fans i noticed but i think there was a section for the f4 fanclub in korea too) you just got a seat as you came and basically rushed to get the best seat… we queued from like 9am and were just behind the payed section foreigners and non paying VIP (not sure how that works) got the whole floor section just behind the people who payed then most koreans who weren’t fanclub members got the second teir (i can’t spell but you know what i mean) but they were mainly suju and dbsk fans who aren’t in cassiopeia and elf and the whole third teir was fanclub, a tiny section of hyolee and then the ft fans (they’ve come a long way really really quick) then suju took up a big section and cassiopeia practically filled up a third of the entire 3rd teir

    like i said before it was amazing even if it rained…. it was an open air stadium and you were basically forced to buy raincoats since staff made you take umbrellas down even in the payed section

  46. 46 *~*cheonsa*~* September 23, 2007 at 6:50 pm

    tier not teir i just realised (is as thick as two short planks)

  47. 47 Aya September 23, 2007 at 8:29 pm

    Oh my god I am so happy I did not marry Vic Zhou, he is aging so poorly.

  48. 48 Di September 23, 2007 at 8:36 pm

    Wow…Vick Zhao is looking SO OLD O.O
    She needs to take better care of herself…
    Maybe the air pollution in China is getting to her. :(

  49. 49 teerakay92 September 23, 2007 at 9:17 pm

    F4=HOTTIES! zaizai wo ai nii ;D
    Go Peterpan!their songs rock!;) (was surprised that they got invited too.lol)

  50. 50 nini September 23, 2007 at 9:22 pm

    Peterpan is one hot band…the pic might not do justice to them…but you guys should definitely check out their songs. I’m a Malaysian and they are big here. Indonesia has some cool bands there.

  51. 51 christaluvsdrama September 23, 2007 at 10:16 pm

    A-Mei would of been really nice if she hadn’t worn those red shoes. Also, JVKV(formerly F4) look TAI SHUAI!!

    @Popseoul

    Just giving you a little info, F4 is no longer called “F4″ do to “F4″(japan) so they no longer hold the rights to use the name. They’re calle JVKV. Why does Vicki look so old in the pic?? Someone can confuse her for being 40yrs old. Maybe its stress…

  52. 52 *~*cheonsa*~* September 23, 2007 at 10:47 pm

    are they really not called F4 anymore??? because hmmm they were announced as that and called that all the time at the ASF yesterday and their korean fanclub was there… although only vaness performed

  53. 53 someone18 September 23, 2007 at 10:54 pm

    i was disappointed to this damn filipinos.. i first heard this news from VJ ISAK at pops in seoul in arirang tv i gues a week ago? she said that kitchie nadal, a female solo rock singer will be philippine’s representative.. fool.. maybe she is too ugly and a bad singer ^_^

  54. 54 :D September 24, 2007 at 12:30 am

    ehehe.. G&M :D

  55. 55 valxuan September 24, 2007 at 1:08 am

    okay….f4 looks really good!!!!
    well….i wonder why nt even one korean attended it….haiz…
    it is dissapointing…..but..maybe they have their own reasons….

  56. 56 yoomi23 September 24, 2007 at 1:10 am

    ohhh..DSBK is not aROUND I THINK….
    tsk tsk…i dont know why they didnt show up
    but yeah..i also feel disappointed…
    even just one of them…
    esp FT ISLAND coz the are just starting..
    they need publicity…

    whaaaa….

  57. 57 sLaVe September 24, 2007 at 2:04 am

    (saw some of it on YT)
    Why Barbie for the Philippines? Why not Kitchie Nadal or Parokya ni Edgar? sheesh, bad taste.
    There were a LOT of Koreans this year… especially compared to last year. I’m surprised they had K-mai as a Japanese rep (and even more so that they had a Japanese rep this year!).
    SuJu… they actually don’t look like trannies to me this time! hmm some of those stupid bad boy fake looks turned out good. good for them.
    Hyori… why the lipstick? You’re so tanned… it doesn’t work…
    Damn Eugene as the host?! she looks so pretty! And she’s my birthday buddy… I’m gonna look so hot when I’m her age. hellz yeah.
    KARA! you sexy and cute girls! Love you guys! All ya’ll looking great.
    I heard DBSK was there… didn’t see them.
    SG Wannabe was there, taht was way cool <3

    Damn it, why is BoA never there anymore?! I mean I would at least think she can go as a rep for Korea, maybe even Japan. Hell, she had some time in China, why not China?!

    -sLaVe

  58. 58 yoomi23 September 24, 2007 at 2:13 am

    DBSK and FTI didnt attend the presscon..
    but the showed up on the actual festival…^^
    good thing! *relieve*

  59. 59 Jane. September 24, 2007 at 4:30 am

    “We at POPSEOUL!, as representatives of Korea would like to formally apologize”

    Way to speak for yourself Popseoul, cause no one, i repeat noone, considers you as a “representative of Korea”.

  60. 60 iinda September 24, 2007 at 5:13 am

    omgeee…i’ve been reading the past comment about this press confrence n im really happy that there are lots of ppl that love peterpan (even though the outfit that they wore it’s just>>>urhhh<<<) …im indonesian n im so thankfull that ppl non-indonesian actually loves our band…thnx to nini and some other ppl that supported peterpan….i love this band and im hoping that they will upload video of them in youtube from that nite……thnx a lot for peterpan supporter n popseoul for posting this…..

  61. 61 God, your stupid September 24, 2007 at 5:14 am

    Ok, yeah so suju and DBSK didnt go to the press conf.
    Good, job not mentioning why.

    Dbsk as mentioned multiple times, had a perf. in Japan, I’m suprised that they even got to the ASF on time.

    Super Junior, not sure why they weren’t there.
    But imagine all of the stars that actually went and 13 other people, there would’ve been like no space at all.

  62. 62 miakaleyamda September 24, 2007 at 7:07 am

    GO PETER PAN!!!DUn care abt outfit. At least, they went!!!!!AS his fans….Fight!I like Ariel the most.

  63. 63 Johnny September 24, 2007 at 7:25 am

    Golf and Mike… wtf. (._.)

  64. 64 Ashley September 24, 2007 at 7:48 am

    Not one Korean artist showed up? >.> Poor attendees; I’d feel pretty insulted as well. Although in the Korean artists’ defense: strictly manufactured groups such as DBSK and Super Junior don’t arrange their own schedules, do they? Doesn’t management or some other SM Entertainment rep do that? I was under the impression that SME groups are pretty much shoved around to this venue or that, and that they had no real control over their actual activities. So isn’t it more directly the management’s fault (or whoever puts together their schedules)?

    Oh well. It’s over and done.

    Kuraki Mai, of all people? O.o

  65. 65 iinda September 24, 2007 at 9:06 am

    hei miakaleyamda same here…but too bad he’s married…u u knoe if there’s any peterpan’s vid from that festival….

  66. 66 lalala September 24, 2007 at 9:19 am

    no offense but koreans are the only hot asians :P

  67. 67 jindarae September 24, 2007 at 9:54 am

    I love k-pop, but i’m sad that they act this way to guests who have exert so much efforts to attend this event. By the way, why Barbie Almalbis don’t have single photo here? She’s a great Filipino artist we love so much! I love Popseoul brave criticisms and hope those artists(?) realize that you just want them to improve for the best…

  68. 68 shine[heart]kangin September 24, 2007 at 11:08 am

    what’s with viki’s shoes?! ahahah! GOSH!! F4 is soooooo hot!!!

  69. 69 지수 September 24, 2007 at 12:00 pm

    @lalala
    To judge the looks of people from different Asian countries based on this article alone is just plain ignorant. You can find good looking Asians (not just Koreans) everywhere. You said “no offense,” but with that comment, you just offended many readers.

    Anyway, that’s so disappointing how no Koreans attended! On a side note, Golf and Mike look like J-pop boys with the whole finely plucked eyebrows and eyeliner look.

  70. 70 hmmmm.... September 24, 2007 at 12:19 pm

    yup. DBSK had a performance in Japan and so flight arrangements didn’t allow them to get there in time so it’s definitely not their fault. Give the boys a break…they’re schedule is backbreaking. I can’t criticize or defend the other celebrity groups though because I simply don’t know what they might have been doing or their excuses.

    Popseoul, could you maybe write an article about the excuses or locations of the no-shows? So then maybe we can decide for ourselves whether or not they should have been excused instead of just getting an opinionated perspective without more facts. Thanks.

  71. 71 *~*cheonsa*~* September 24, 2007 at 12:24 pm

    Golf and Mike look like J-pop boys with the whole finely plucked eyebrows and eyeliner look.

    of course they do they’ve been Johnniesified or whatever
    mike looked so hot with his eyeliner on stage

  72. 72 Qey September 24, 2007 at 5:39 pm

    Golf nd Mike looks like Japanesse singer and also they look like a girl.

    Peterpan can’t dress well, BUT!! They sure can sing well!! I love their songs! I went to their concert and its AWESOME!! (:

  73. 73 blueberry September 24, 2007 at 6:09 pm

    I feel offended too. I mean, some might have said that it’s “impossible” to fit 13 memebers (suju) to the pc table. But how about just sending 1 or 2? SM managers does almost everything for publicity, but yet, they missed out on this one. I just think it’s plain disrespectful. They could’ve send someone else, they don’t have to send the whole group, just one or two would’ve been enough.

  74. 74 Zillah September 24, 2007 at 8:46 pm

    No picture of Barbie Almalbis (Philippines)? Isn’t she the one in that black&white stripe shirt?

    Where were all the korean reps? at least one of them should have came.

  75. 75 gms September 24, 2007 at 8:49 pm

    For those who r insulting golf-mike, i dont think it’s really fair — you probably haven’t even listened to any of their latest songs. I agree with you, “lyn” that the “busy dancing” song sucked, but every other song is great. so before u say they suck, u should look first. anyway i know u cant sing half as well as they can.

  76. 76 Hayley September 25, 2007 at 3:11 am

    Speaking on behalf of Peterpan’s supporter. I’m singaporean and have been following the band. Its really nice to know that they have been invited. Well I guess dressing shouldnt be an issue since they have their originality rather than dressing up formally which is so not them. its talents that counts to my own views. Its always the case isnt it for asian artist about dressing and yet when it comes to international everyone just keeps mum about it. U guys should listen to the band on youtube or buy the cd. Its worth ur money I gurantee u. You guys can find out more about the band from the Indonesian fans that setted up a ‘website’ with updated photos of them. metropanerz.multiply.com, however they do have their own website but it has been poorly updated-www.peterpanband.com

  77. 77 Oh A-Mei September 25, 2007 at 3:26 am

    I agree. A-Mei looks like a hooker, an Indian hooker although she’s Taiwanese. Her face and teeth scare me, but her pretty voice makes up for it.

  78. 78 iinda September 25, 2007 at 4:41 am

    omg…i hate this…i’ve searching all aroud internet and there is no single video from that nite with peterpan on it….im so sad….T_T….if anyone knoe…plzzzz just comment here….i begging u ppl……

  79. 79 WATEVER September 25, 2007 at 6:21 am

    who cares if they attend or not they each have their own very busy schedule… so who cares.. it’s up to them if they can fit it in their schedule…

  80. 80 --- September 25, 2007 at 7:19 am

    one of the guys in f4 got reallllllyy chubby!
    whaaat happened to the other boys? :[

  81. 81 Indo September 25, 2007 at 10:57 am

    peterpan is a rock band but more so on pop rock but I’m indonesian and I’m kind of embarrased they wore those laid back clothes I know they trying to give the feel of laid back rockers but sometimes it’ll look good to look good in other countries

  82. 82 rachel September 25, 2007 at 12:24 pm

    golf-mike was there too. awwww, so cute. :)

  83. 83 sesy September 25, 2007 at 12:42 pm

    The Indonesian band Peter Pan rocks! Doesn’t really matter to me if they weren’t all dressed up, it’s the music that matters more. They’re pretty popular in Malaysia. Anyway, I think being poorly dressed is not as rude to the occasion as non-present Korean artistes.

  87. 87 Hae Sun September 25, 2007 at 10:19 pm

    sigh what was that outfit peterpan?usually theyre good dressed up!lol dunno whats happening ..but theyre rox ^^

  88. 88 umhs September 25, 2007 at 10:23 pm

    omgsh.. i x3 peterpan !~ you guys have to listen to their songs,, they`re really original.. and i kinda wish that other countries could send more than 1 band/singer..

  89. 89 Hae Sun September 25, 2007 at 10:26 pm

    yeah!some indonesian bands are good!!

  90. 90 Ange September 25, 2007 at 10:47 pm

    Ahahahah… Peter Pan is all about “music” not ~*~style~*~ :p

  91. 91 addiKTed2yuu September 25, 2007 at 11:36 pm

    ohh, didnt peterpan go 2 the last asf as well…? hmm,, dat other band “ungu” is quite good as well,, i think they should go someday.. =]

    i’ve seen once peterpan performance in singapore. They’re great, even though in this picture they only wearing plain outfit. Maybe we shouldn’t judge people by its cover..

  99. 99 Pink Rose September 27, 2007 at 12:14 pm

    I’m not the fan of Peterpan, but i khow this band is so famous, not only in Indonesia, but in Malaysia and singapore too!!! This group band is the one who had released their new album in 5 TV channels and 3 countries in one day. They have big fans in 3 countries : Malaysia, Singapore & Indonesia. You guys should watch their video or listen their songs, just don’t jugde them by what they wear.

  100. 100 Chin-Chin September 27, 2007 at 3:51 pm

    I knew Peterpan well at least one of their songs!
    MTV Indonesia is available before on our cable and I heard their single and have it already…”Mungkin Nanti” is the title,it’s popppy I think I love the tune and drums but can’t understand even a word lolz!
    try searching for it!
    why did Vic cut his hair like that?!
    I miss the old him!

  101. 101 dinnnaaa September 27, 2007 at 7:01 pm

    excuse me but is it rly important about the outfit? at least they really KNOW n CAN (how to) SING! glad tht some ppl dont rly mind about what were they wearing. Thx for the hongkong taiwan, malay n spore fans.. and any other fans outside the country.. thank ya so much…
    dont forget, just try searching in youtube. type peterpan indonesia or something like tht… :D

  102. 102 isobel September 28, 2007 at 3:37 am

    hi, as a friend of Peterpan.. i’d like to thank you all who have supported Peterpan. Thank you for the negative and positive comments. As for the critics on their fashion style.. well, i guess everyone has their own style, eh ? Oh and as far as i know, they came down to Seoul to perform at a music festival and not walking on a cat-walk in some fashion event ^^ However, i’ll still thank you for the critics..

    I will pass your comments to Ariel and i will pass the link of this article to the band and musica studios (peterpan’s label).

    Oh, i also need to pass an important info for the peterpan’s fans here. During their visit to Seoul, Peterpan managed to film a new MV for their single titled “Sally Sendiri”. Soo for you the Peterpan’s fans out there.. better wait for this one ;)

    cheers !

    i was disappointed to this damn filipinos.. i first heard this news from VJ ISAK at pops in seoul in arirang tv i gues a week ago? she said that kitchie nadal, a female solo rock singer will be philippine’s representative.. fool.. maybe she is too ugly and a bad singer ^_^

    WASSUP WITH THIS MAN? **** racist..YOU’LL BE SKINNED ONCE your found..do your homework before you open your mouth..or maybe u just don’t know exactly what to say..

  113. 113 jifun October 5, 2007 at 5:20 pm

    PETER PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!THOUGH, I THINK ASIAN PEOPLES ARE STILL BEING FOLLOWERS OF WESTERN MUSICS AND STYLES…..FOR EXAMPLES, THERE WERE SO MANY ASIAN ARTISTS PERFORMED ON THE STAGE AS IF SHE WAS BRITNEY SPEARS OR THEY WERE BACKSTREET BOYS…..NO ONE WAS KINNDA ORIGINAL…HOPELY IN THE FUTURE THE FESTIVAL WILL SHOW ASIAN ORIGINAL MUSIX AND STYLES. DONT BE A FOLLOWER!!!

  114. 114 dbskfreak93 October 8, 2007 at 1:21 am

    y no representatives form malaysia??
    at least send jaclyn victor..she’s awesome!!

    i wished she won ikon asean though..
    but the Philipines was awesome thoughh(sorry can’t remember the names..)

  115. 115 jindarae October 9, 2007 at 10:31 am

    It’s not good to say bad things to people specially when they don’t deserved it. Kitchie Nadal is a great Filipino Artist just like Barbie Almalbis… They are friends actually, they are one of our best talents (we have more to offer actually)..

    Vina Morales and Kjwan, both from the Philippines, won this year’s Asean Ikon. :)

    …but I still love k-pop though… ha ha ha

    ~I love Isak and Mario and Hyun Bin~

    Peace! V

  116. 116 penguin_x3 October 12, 2007 at 12:06 pm

    alright golf and mike, i LOVE them but they have got to lose that ugly outfit and those horrible makeup, afterall Mike is my future husband. DBSK, I think it’stime for them to come back to Korea because we all miss you baby, maybe that’s why I stopped listening to them? TOO just Japanese(even though I loveeee Japanese people too much) F4!!!! TOOOO HOOOOTTTTT!! Jerry Yan is my baby’s daddy just so everybody knows.

  117. 117 pop_seoul_sucks October 13, 2007 at 3:31 am

  119. 119 fatsoko October 15, 2007 at 4:43 am

    Although it was a disappointment that none of the Korean representatives showed for the Press Conference–perhaps there was a valid reason?

    Like someone suggested earlier, it would have been nice if you were able to say why certain groups were unable to attend. It’s practically mudslinging when you say ’so and so’ didn’t come because they’re stuck up when the truth of the matter is very different.

    I think I enjoyed reading the comments more than the actual article, though this article was more informative than the one directly on the Asia Song Festival Concert.

    my recomend song is “Bintang di Surga”
    Very baeutiful song,…
    it’s mean “Stars in Heaven”….

  133. 133 emma December 8, 2007 at 5:31 am

    I’m surprised to know Peterpan has so many fans from many countries. What makes them different from other bands in that event is they’re not typical boyband. They are the band with the real talents and skills. For those who don’t know about Peterpan, just type Peterpan Indonesia in youtube and you will see they have a lot of hit songs. Their songs give strong impression to people who listen to them. A malaysian band even went so far into making the English version of Peterpan’s song. And a famous music director in India plagiarised one of Peterpan’s song to put in his films. It became no.1 hit in India. Many Indians said it’s the best Indian song ever, until they found out that it was copied from Peterpan’s song.

    Search for Peterpan in Wikipedia and you’ll know how great they are.

  141. 141 Vinks March 27, 2008 at 2:16 pm

  142. 142 nakula July 28, 2008 at 4:18 am

    I am from India.
    Peterpan is band from indonesia and popular in south Asia(Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapura and Brunei may be in Philipine).
    I knew this band when i saw Asian Idol and this band sing a song which very popular in India. I just knew if india version is Copy from Peterpen’s Song.
    Check the below link, i am very impressed with this song from Peterpan. And the other song is very interesting too.

    http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_QHXgie7OVw

    I hope Asia Festival Song is truely song contest not dance or beauty contest moreover don’t lipstick when perform.

  143. 143 lm September 29, 2008 at 4:29 pm

    @nakula I am not sure if peterpan is popular in the philippines because you see there’s a lot of rock bands.. in the Philippines LOLs………. I don’t even know where to begin

    I’m happy tho that rivermaya will be performing this coming week in the Asia Song Festival. OMG.. it’s coming!!! I hope they’ll rock korea.. eheh I’m so proud of you barbie eheh for representing the phil.. Hmmm yeah.. Barbie did attend the conference, but popseoul didn’t get a chance to zoom into her.. hmm perhaps it was indeed intentional that they didn’t review her style…I’m afraid they didn’t want to dissed on her sense of fashion style..because they know there are a lot of filipinos that look at this site ahaha she may not be that fashionable during the conference but she one talented singer(artist)^^ she looked good during her performance ehehe

  144. 144 koko October 4, 2008 at 2:32 pm

    Korean artists are very RUDE!!!

  145. 145 much_lis October 22, 2008 at 6:47 pm

    yeah… peterpan is my favorite band.
    thnx for people that more loves music than fashion or style bla bla bla….
