Korean pop stars respond to Michael Jackson’s death

With the explosion of girl groups based on numbers, 2NE1 (above) and 4minute, JYP must want a piece of the action. Despite the Wondergirls attempting to go big in the U.S. market and the debut of “Sisters” in China, the dancing gorilla cannot rest.
The producer extraordinaire is working on debuting another 3 girl group later this year. So what will the concept and name be? With the trend in copycat girl groups, we can only guesstimate that numbers and bright neon colors will be involved….or maybe sailor girls?
Interviewing 1 person can get difficult but 11?
Movieweek had a tough job. The Korean weekly magazine interviewed both 2AM and 2PM during a photoshoot for their album on June 2nd. Many of the members chimed in to comment and answer questions such as:
How was 2AM and 2PM divided into separate groups?
Joonho: Based on what JYP wanted (laughs)
JoKwon: The underaged members refer to JYP as “PD” while the “legal” members refer to him as “hyung” (older brother)
The boys also joked that Jaebom and Nickhun are not friends….
JYP, producer extraordinaire looks exactly the same 10 years ago (left) as he does now (right). You would think that with the pressure in the entertainment business to get a higher and slimmer nose, shave down the jaws, and slice open the eyes, the dancing gorilla would succumb… butt gotta give him props for “keeping it (too) real”
