[PS! Final Face-off] SHINee vs. 2PM

2pmvsshinee_20090810

Which boy group has more male charm~?

Previously, the first POPSEOUL! Final Face-off was between the American debutantes BoA and the Wondergirls. Curious as to who triumphed based on your commentary? Check out the podcast we created. It’s moderately long, but if you can stick it out, give us some feedback on it.

 

——————————————————————————————————————

There are plenty of male groups out there, and all of them are seeking to pull at your heart strings every time they flash a smile, throw a subtle wink, or rip off their shirt. So for this week’s PS! Final Face-off, we want you to pit two of the freshest boy groups on the scene right now and tell us which gang possesses the most irresistible charms to make the girls squirm, squeal, and swoon.

As the best showing rookies of 2008, SM Entertainment‘s latest boy group caused the most massive stir among older females when they debuted with “Replay (Noona you’re so pretty)”. Right out of the gate, SHINee has not faltered with their crisp and slick dance moves unexpected of a rookie group, and have charmed the ladies with their boyish good looks and unspoiled masculinity. With their untarnished and wholesome image, do you want to be SHINee’s “Juliette“?

JYP Entertainment‘s hottest male group debuted in the fall of 2008 arousing the females with their energetic aerobatics on stage to the tune of their debut single, “10 out of 10“. Over the past year, 2PM shown us more than back-flips and somersaults, they’ve unleashed smooth moves with their comeback “Again & Again“ that were oozing with charisma, and that they are essentially a bunch of dorks that just like to mess around most of the time. Do their devil-may-care whims win you over?

Remember, what you should take into consideration shouldn’t be which is more popular or “better”, but rather whose aura is most appealing to the female demographic. Give us your best evidence, amusing anecdotes, and personal convictions, and we’ll take those into consideration.

Which group’s “pheromones” make more of your girly hormones rage? If you’re a dude, we’re not leaving you out in the cold; which group most bruises your male ego when your girlfriend/wife fawns over these boys?

SHINee or 2PM?

——————————————————————————————————-

You have spoken and what I’m hearing is…

2pm_20090829

2PM has male charm in spades.

I almost gave it to SHINee for this one comment from balabababa1003325, ”oh please, the members of 2pm individually are just really girly,” which when you think about it and from their behavior on Wild Bunny, that’s a fairly valid statement.

Reading the comments, it was nice to see POPSEOULers appreciating the unique qualities of both groups. I thought = )SHINee2PM‘s little catch phrase was quite cute, “Rise & SHINee it’s 2PM!

Although many POPSEOULers weren’t afraid to admit to being a noona in love, 2PM seemed to be the obvious choice for almost everybody. SHINee is definitely the more polished and talented boy group between the two, but many of you felt SHINee’s boyhood, pastel skinny jeans, and “appropriate proper prissy idol” personas just couldn’t stand a chance against 2PM’s “beasty” stage charisma and “adorkable” personalities on your girly hormones. Guess feminine guys aren’t in vogue anymore.

    i like 2PM and all, but i think that SHINee is a little better. they always have something fresh in their hands and leave me having more. i guess i like SHINee more cause i listen to them way more than 2pm. LOL.

    oppas, fighting!!

  8. 10 taum April 19, 2010 at 9:33 pm

    2PM is the best.

  9. 11 Ayoyo April 21, 2010 at 12:11 am

    No one can beat 2PM in the manner of charm. They should compare 2PM with DBSK not Shinee. Shinee is too low in my opinion.

    • 12 do i know you? May 16, 2010 at 9:17 am

      thats really offensive

      • 13 Shin July 4, 2010 at 10:37 pm

        That’s not true. SHINee’s THE BEST. They’re not low in any sort of way. Thinking of a hottest that said that makes me feel like 2PM fans are always so biased.

    • 14 WTF July 26, 2010 at 1:40 am

    There was NO POINT OF DOING THIS ARTICLE!!! Of course Shinee!!!! What do u think?? 2pm’s better than shinee??? SHinee’s better at DANCING, ACTING, SINGING, RAPPING AND OF COURSE OTHER THINGS. Unlike stupid 2pm. Who cares if shinee dont have muscles?? At least their personality’s better than 2pm. SHINEE ROCKS!!!! Get out the counrty and the world JYP Entertainment.

    I LUV SHINEE!!!!!!!!

  18. 25 waddles0606 June 24, 2010 at 6:27 pm

    if shinee is really better than 2PM, why havent they won the poll? not that i have anything against shinee; i love them too, with all their catchy songs like juliette, replay, jojo and ring ding dong, but i just think that 2pm’s dancing skills, singing skills and personalities are not as affected as shinee’s are. both shinee and 2pm are great, but i just believe that 2pm is greater.

  19. 26 Shin July 4, 2010 at 10:38 pm

    SHINee’s the best, no competition! 완전대박ㄱㄱ^^

  20. 27 jypLD July 6, 2010 at 7:16 am

    2PM ALL THE WAYYYY, BABYY <3
    no doubt

  21. 28 2pm7jayshinee July 8, 2010 at 1:30 pm

    I LIKE BOTH OF THEM SHINEE AND 2PM.
    BUT PERSONALLY I THINK AND SEE,2PM HAD MORE MANLY CHARM THAN SHINEE BOYS.
    BUT STILL THEY BOTH ROCKSSSSSSS

  22. 29 Duh? July 9, 2010 at 7:37 am

    Is this even a question?
    2pm is so much more talented.
    There’s a reason they’re more popular.
    They’re better looking.
    Not that it matters too much.
    ITS 2PM 4 the Win.
    No doubt about it.

    Im a guy and am straight and think that 2pm is more manlier.
    Nothing against Shinee, though

  23. 30 bigboss July 17, 2010 at 6:49 pm

    2PM baby, 10 0ut of 10
    They are so funny and talented
    3 of 7 (Jay) can speak English I love it

    2pm no doubt seriously

    I voted for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  24. 31 kalia July 18, 2010 at 9:33 am

    sorry but 2pm’s vocals and songs don’t even compare to SHINee!:)
