2008 Mnet KM Music Festival Red Carpet Style

Mk_1115_1

This year, the 2008 Mnet KM Music Festival decided to show off the arrivals in style on a chilly November 15th . The boy bands came in matching suits and white runners while the girls braved the cold by wearing something skimpy. In cold weather, it bites being a woman trying to look fabulous.

Mk_1115_3Mk_1115_4Mk_1115_7Mk_1115_8Mk_1115_9Mk_1115_10Mk_1115_14Mk_1115_17Mk_1115_14 Lee Hyori brings on the tartans. Woman must have been working on her rear end since the last time. Her butt has miraculously grown a bit rounder than before. Or could it be these?

Mk_1115_13Mk_1115_19 Joo is alive! We haven’t heard much from the singer under JYP. The girl thinks she’s a princess by standing on a princess stand. Was it made for her? Who knows.

Mk_1115_35Mk_1115_36Mk_1115_38Mk_1115_39Mk_1115_40Mk_1115_41Mk_1115_42Mk_1115_33Mk_1115_34 Jewelry have resorted to the celebrity favorite black - we know that the economy is doing bad, but the stylists aren’t doing their job…. the only creativity is in Suh In-young’s patterned stockings.

Mk_1115_43Mk_1115_18Mk_1115_45Mk_1115_37Mk_1115_47Mk_1115_46Mk_1115_44Mk_1115_48 Brown Eyed Girls provide a contrast to the blood bath performance in white later that evening. Again, black is blah.

Mk_1115_49Mk_1115_51Mk_1115_53 Dynamic Duo bring back to dorky cute in a forest green vest and gold tie and white nikes with gold sign. Cute.

Mk_1115_56Mk_1115_50Mk_1115_54Mk_1115_58

An Hye-kyung, Ha Sang-baek(Designer- left), Yoo Se-youn. Ok, props for Ms An for daring to wear this unflattering dress. Yet, this little number is difficult to pull off because it completely flattens you out. Seriously, what was she thinking?

MK_1115_81MK_1115_80MK_1115_84 Ko Euna’s light pink dress looks like it was made from leftover lingerie.  I think I have yards of that fabric sitting in my closet somewhere. Girl needs to spend some money on a proper (and flattering dress).

MK_1115_82MK_1115_83MK_1115_85MK_1115_86MK_1115_87 Hong Soo-ah. Risking the cold to expose some boobage, the 22 year old actress wants some media exposure. Ummm… what is an actress doing here?

MK_1115_75MK_1115_74MK_1115_76MK_1115_77MK_1115_78 Epik High & Nell. The boys of Epik High and Nell could create a super group called “Epik Highism”

MK_1115_90MK_1115_91MK_1115_92 Jin Jae-young is an example of a 30 year old trying to pull off a dress for someone half her age. And if the red dress is so short, why try to cover yourself with a tiny bag? Why not lug a huge tote bag to cover up?

MK_1115_94MK_1115_95MK_1115_102MK_1115_96MK_1115_97MK_1115_93 SHINee live up to their name- they are indeed shiny in gold and white. Boys are coordinated down to their white runners.

MK_1115_104MK_1115_105MK_1115_106MK_1115_98 2AM are wearing the “galchi” (sliver fish) suit but for the winter in a dark gray.  From far away, you can see the unflattering crinkles….

MK_1115_100MK_1115_108MK_1115_107 U-Kiss. All I can think of when seeing white fur on black is all those thin white hairs sticking to the black fabric. I think they are trying to go gangsta. Fail.

MK_1115_110MK_1115_111Mk_1115_52 V.O.S rummaged through their father’s closets from the 1970’s. Those outfits were sent to the Salvation Army years ago. Fail.

  6. 6 sunny November 17, 2008 at 7:35 pm

    Epik High and Nell makes a nice combination somehow. Love both of their music, and love their collaborations. Kim Jongwan’s high-pitched voice FTW! xD

  7. 7 TomatoJuice November 17, 2008 at 7:36 pm

  11. 11 KayBee November 17, 2008 at 8:42 pm

    hmmm….

  12. 12 Sandyy November 17, 2008 at 9:04 pm

    hyori does look stunning but I thnk the pencil skirt is too long for her cos it makes her legs look really short Her body looks a little odd in the first pic but she looks the best! Where’s Rain and DBSK??

  13. 13 rachael November 17, 2008 at 9:07 pm

    VOS clothes is actually ok…i mean it is winter over there and those vintage country style are in…just that they don’t have the figure to shower it off…the one in the navy coat looks alrite though

    and hyori looks like she just pop out of her u go girl mv…arghhh

    what happen to the rest…big bang and dbsk and wg…cmon..

  14. 14 Lina November 17, 2008 at 9:08 pm

    I love hyori’s dress..she is so gorgeous..^^
    and well except for her all the other women needed some better stylist..even men..whats up with them XD
    BTW i saw alot of furs around their jackets..maybe i’m concentrating more since when JJ had one in MMKF

  15. 15 evvy November 17, 2008 at 9:24 pm

    ER, SHINee seriously needs to hire better stylists. The clothes they are wearing are ridiculous. Only Jonghyun and Onew look remotely normal.

  16. 16 HAHAHA November 17, 2008 at 9:30 pm

    whoa looks like hyori got her a silicon butt. goodbye to flat ass

  17. 17 HAHAHA November 17, 2008 at 9:31 pm

    whoa looks like hyori got herself a silicon butt. goodbye to flat ass

  18. 18 HAHAHA November 17, 2008 at 9:32 pm

    whoa looks like hyori got herself a silicon butt. goodbye to flat butt

  19. 19 kitty November 17, 2008 at 9:36 pm

    BIG BANG?!! DBSK?!?!

  20. 20 xhoneyx November 17, 2008 at 9:45 pm

    woah hyori sure know’s how to clean up! DBSK looked the best, dressed like the big stars their are.

  21. 21 Linda November 17, 2008 at 9:49 pm

    Yay, VOS.
    Why cant they get recognized for their voices? They are amazing..

  22. 22 what the... November 17, 2008 at 10:20 pm

    i think hyori has a beautiful face. she is one of the few ppl who can pull of a sexy and a cute face; however her body isn’t that great! even if she got some push up butt underwear and boobs..her legs are too short. she should have worn a mini skirt instead.
    her outfit made her hips look too small, head too big and legs short.
    otherwise…i love hyori. she’s amazing entertainer.

  23. 23 dwilliams November 17, 2008 at 11:10 pm

    what the I totally agree with you Hyori’s outfit is all wrong and makes her look shorter than she appears. The stockings definitely are wrong for the outfit.

  24. 24 evanesam November 18, 2008 at 12:28 am

    my favourite is Hyori and Tablo from Epik High I don’t like what the other wear

  25. 25 wangmo November 18, 2008 at 12:37 am

    hey does anyone know where i can watch this festival????

  26. 26 sonaturelle November 18, 2008 at 12:47 am

    I actually like the Army look! lol especially the one on the right! yum!

  27. 27 loggou16 November 18, 2008 at 1:18 am

    Epik High + Nell = the 2 most talented South Korean music group <3

  28. 28 L O R E N November 18, 2008 at 1:31 am

    minho is so hot. but that outfit *thumbs down

  29. 29 Shaenna November 18, 2008 at 1:42 am

    SHINee’s outfits were pretty cool, if you like to look at things diffrently…

  30. 30 pi-chan November 18, 2008 at 2:22 am

    ahh i really don’t like taemin’s new haircut XPPP
    he looked the best in replay and love like oxygen~~

  31. 31 SP November 18, 2008 at 3:10 am

    Hyori could have done without the red lipstick…the red lipstick on Jewerly is a definite no-no!!!

    And Hong Soo-ah looks like Song Hye Kyo from afar. I believe Song Hye Kyo beat her with that style, too, and looks better in the dress.

  32. 32 sh. November 18, 2008 at 3:26 am

    and… dbsk, big bang, wonder girls?

    lol. fail.

  33. 33 sh. November 18, 2008 at 3:26 am

    oh, and 2PM too.

  34. 34 palki November 18, 2008 at 3:29 am

    Hyori rocks. Love the red lipstick with the red tartan skirt and the red highlights in her hair. It would have been perfect if she had not carried that fur. Not only does it not match her outfit…..it is so not PC. She should have gone for a distressed black leather jacket. Love her sexy eyes!

  35. 35 palki November 18, 2008 at 3:40 am

    I love that she wore black fishnets stockings with the longish skirt. Makes it sexy. Also her accessories are perfect. And the classic white shirt is a nice contrast to the otherwise rocker outfit. Way to go Hyori! I am so glad you didn’t go for a clinging synthetic looking top.
    The rest of the people look so boring…..so predictable!

  36. 36 ajbdlkjsdjsrf November 18, 2008 at 4:10 am

    i like hyori and all but she looks like one of those people i can see walking on the streets going to their office.. made me lol hard.. she could have done better.

  37. 37 chaewon. November 18, 2008 at 4:24 am

    i like Hyori’s style too.
    she looks good and pretty^^

    Shinee’s outfit are good too..but the shoes shld be changed ><

    and U-Kiss’s furry outfit reminds me of JaeJoong’s furry snake.
    how come so many artistes are wearing that white furry snake?o.o

  38. 38 live4music November 18, 2008 at 4:30 am

    Hyori, Epik High and Nell looked great.
    Shinee looked cute XP

  39. 39 Sam November 18, 2008 at 4:59 am

    UKiss was doing a cruella deville look i think lol
    in some of the other groups u could maybe pick out 1 or 2 ppl who actually looked good in their outfits, most of the girls were smoking crack when they left the cordis pick those!!

  40. 40 izzie November 18, 2008 at 4:59 am

    Loved Hyori’s sexy, stylish look! And The Epik High boys always look hot! They really should form a group with Nell!

  41. 41 confused November 18, 2008 at 5:13 am

    if Hyori gets rid of those fishnet stockings, I’ll give her my props.

  42. 42 getoutofmyCOUNTRY November 18, 2008 at 5:37 am

    pretty sure hyori didnt ACHIEVE that ass on her own. its probably that padded butt. shinee’s outfit are a step beyond GAY. and wthell is up with the black and furs/boas? and i thought korea was finally having good fashion sense!

  43. 43 Courty November 18, 2008 at 5:42 am

    Hyori Lee justs keeps bringing sexy back in the best way. I love her!

  44. 44 Sue November 18, 2008 at 6:00 am

    hong su ah is 22? must’ve been mad young when she was in nonstop then. i also think she was one of the mc’s or award presenters, no?

  45. 45 krnchngrl November 18, 2008 at 6:02 am

    no wayyy i love how VOS looksss! they look sooo i’d say like.. HANDSOME <3

  46. 46 Cait November 18, 2008 at 6:12 am

    Hyori’s accessories are terrible!

    That mens chain link necklace - horrible with that neckline!

    All those clunky bangles she’s got goin on - tacky!

    Not to mention that cuff on her blouse is soo clerical looking - even a secretary can look hotter!

  47. 47 UHMJUNGHWA4EVER November 18, 2008 at 7:04 am

    Wow, and I was starting to think about leaving Hyori alone, but she looks like a tragic tranny.

  48. 48 ji eun November 18, 2008 at 7:38 am

    i think hyori looks great, rockin’ outfit.

  49. 49 sc November 18, 2008 at 7:56 am

    wadddup with all this fur this year? shinee, big bang, u-kiss. better not be real..

  50. 50 boat November 18, 2008 at 8:24 am

    i think you fail.
    why dont you get the guts to wear something as bold and quirky as what they have on?

  51. 51 couscous November 18, 2008 at 9:36 am

    Hyori looks hot as hell and I really like the idea of Epik High and Nell forming a super group! Well….that may be too much talent in one group!

  52. 52 sierra November 18, 2008 at 10:10 am

    Sad… sad… fashion states… :P FUR? Come on…….

  53. 53 Shinee love November 18, 2008 at 11:39 am

    shinee looks hot and shiny like always! love them so much. love what they are wearing.

  54. 54 lev November 18, 2008 at 12:19 pm

    Hyori and her booty view. BD

    Jewelry looks cute! Browned Eyed Girls, not so much.

    SHINee looks nice! (If only they tossed the shiny stuff. e_o) Minho is tall!!

    2AM isn’t bad either. ^^

    U-Kiss needs to lose the fur. Though their skin looks freakishly flawless. #_#

  55. 55 calmer410 November 18, 2008 at 12:37 pm

    Haha popseoul u make me laugh..buttpads?

  56. 56 felisshi November 18, 2008 at 12:40 pm

    After watching so many Korean dramas, I’m finally convinced that Korean fashion is one of the best and I must say they know the latest styles. But for crying out loud, PLEASE DRESS ACCORDINGLY.

  57. 57 animal cruelty!!!!! November 18, 2008 at 5:00 pm

    what the ……? the death animals are all around!!!!!

  58. 58 medical beauty November 18, 2008 at 6:05 pm

    HYORI — SHORT, SHORT AND SHORT LEGS. PULL UP THAT SKIRT TO SHOW MORE LEGS.

  59. 59 Lulu November 18, 2008 at 8:49 pm

    bubble dresses are over. why haven’t ppl embraced the truth?

  60. 60 JONGHYUN'S WIFE :D November 18, 2008 at 10:20 pm

  61. 61 Passer November 18, 2008 at 10:21 pm

    Hyori and seo in young’s lips are far too red.

  62. 62 wuteva November 19, 2008 at 1:58 am

    where is Wonder Girls, 2PM, DBSK and Big Bang??
    well.. 3 of them are the daesang winner (xcept for 2PM, newcomer)

  64. 64 LOL November 19, 2008 at 1:59 am

    yuck!!

  65. 65 UHMJUNGHWA4EVER November 19, 2008 at 8:15 am

    This is my second look at this and anyone would look ugly in Jin Jae young’s dress. It’s just ugly. Has nothing to do with age.

  66. 66 akljdfksdakl November 19, 2008 at 12:03 pm

    Hyoris outfit is and EWWWW for me..

    http://popseoul.files.wordpress.com/2008/11/mk-1115-361.jpg

    LOL the rapper’s head looks photoshopped on.

  68. 68 I'm So Hood November 19, 2008 at 3:29 pm

    Nell and Epik High.
    That’s it.
    The rest were major blows.

    Whoever the rest are.

  69. 69 Ann*e November 19, 2008 at 3:55 pm

  70. 70 ema November 19, 2008 at 6:31 pm

    yaa.. where is big bang? how come you miss big bang?

  71. 71 haku November 20, 2008 at 2:00 pm

    whats up with all the fur? im not going to pretend that i really care about the wild animals and all but isnt that looked down upon or is it different in korea?

    i think people in the states would throw a fit seeing this on their red carpet.

  72. 72 RIN December 5, 2008 at 5:21 pm

    I love the part of Epik High,U-kiss and Nell<33
    Thanks for posting~

  73. 73 manya_pearl December 30, 2008 at 4:20 am

    i love park jung-ah’s style, her shoes, her wallet, everything. her hairstyle is awesome. if my hair is short like her, i probably make the same style.

    i also like ahn hye kyung’s shoes. its cute. im gonna look for the similar shoes style.

    the rest? the boybands are weird. why they wear such costume? is this red carpet or carnival????
