Wow, I loved this article, korea should be so proud! I guess the U.S should be proud of M.C Hammer, or even...........Kevin...FED.......... it makes me prould just thinking about these two.





From street to stage, Korean B boys rise to the nation's pride
By Kim Hyun

SEOUL, Nov. 28 (Yonhap) -- It's well past 11 p.m. Friday night, but Lee Woo-sung and his crew are just returning from a show and have two more interviews before they call it a day.
On their monthly schedule board, almost every spot blares with an engagement -- trip to Gyeongju Hotel, return to Seoul at dawn, have an interview with CBS, then head to a persimmon festival, then Hong Kong... And on it goes.

Koreans will jump on the band wagon and ride even non-sense happenings...they have to be above anyone else it seems.
Pride? I think not...just something to do....
Would Canada, the U.S, Great Britain, Japan, etc.... do the same type of thing?
MC Hammer..the pride of the U.S.?

Actually, the first time I saw Lee Woo-sung and his "crew" was at my co-workers house. I thought it was just some comedy show like SNL, these guys were just walking around the stage acting like they were making fun of gangsters and hip hop music..................

I was sort of laughing and my co-worker looked surprised.

I guess I know why she was so surprised since they are now the pride of korea.

I thought the Back Street Boys really sucked and were a joke (I still do), but they make far more money than me.

Really? Unless you plan on being a not entity in their lives (which is a bad thing), you would be very quickly rethinking that!

Eh, not her/his best work to be honest. I was expecting this to somehow link back to how we were all losers. The last one was much better.

I took this to be a 7 letter sentence, two words, starting with 'f' and ending with 'u'.
