DBSK is SOOO my guilty pleasure like woah! I've watched like all of their stuff on youtube and whatnot. They can sing so well, I love that live radio clip that they have on youtube http://youtube.com/watch?v=4J10iNrtr50 . I swear these boys can sing so well! ...and just when I thought I was finally over my "boyband phase", haha.

Here's their Japanese official site http://toho-jp.net/index.html

hero is the best. actually he's the reason i like them, cause of his voice. he can go really gentle on times and his vibrato can be powerful yet soft! i can't believe the stupid record company actually thought of wanting to kick him out last time >( luckily they didn't or i'd probably lose interest and stop buying their cds after that. ahh yeah..anyway i like them, but recently haven't been listening to them that much have to go listen

Yeah, JaeJoong is my favorite vocally too. ChangMin is so precious, though. His smile makes me want to pinch his cheeks and take him home with me , haha.

Yeah, they are such youngins, especially ChangMin. At least he's 18 now so I feel less weird for thinking he's the cutest little thing ever.

"Whatever they say" acapella version: http://youtube.com/watch?v=1NsnaifORCo
I love this song and JaeJoong's flowy hair, haha.

Way off topic, but ... I've caught a few Korean soaps, but I don't watch them regularly or anything, haha. Though I don't think it'd be considered a soap opera, Dae Jang Geum (Jewel In The Palace), was so freaking good! I watched the whole series on AZN channel.

Anyhow, DBSK starred in a drama, Dangerous Love. I think it was aired last Sunday. But anyway, yah. The preview could be seen in Youtube, just search for the title.

DBSG are so adorable! but i'm not so into korean music like how i used to be anymore...it's all changed when SM kicked out all of my favorite bands from the entertainment....but still loving YG!

i think hero is toooo cute...Xiah just perfect! oh! and this band can dance!

sastuki i think you was talking bout the "hug" pv....

This is kind of old news (Well, about 2 weeks I think), but I wasn't sure if you all had heard about it:

The same day, SM Entertainment apologized to TVXQ fans about the incident. On Avex Trax's Official Site, the front page were also marked with apologizes from the company for his actions.
Hero is a bad boy, no?

Tonight's episode of the O.C. made me think of DBSK (Summer's prom date was a Kpop star, lol!)

Go for it! If you like cheesy boybands, with good looking guys dancing and singing, lol. The guys are so cute, and they can sing really well, but it's all dependent on if that's your type of music or not.

I'm new to them, only known them for a few days, and can't really tell them apart, only in the Triangle clip.
This isn't my kind of music, but these guys can really sing! Hero's voice is so amazing! And he is pretty
