This winter is failing me in K-pop right now I find ridiculous things like SNSD's Hoot and Kara Jumping hitting the top of the charts. Mostly because of their Music videos and hot bodies not because they make Great music or even good music. Whatever happened to being something that would last through time as a song itself and not as some sexy icon? I mean they are supposed to be "MUSIC" Videos not just some pythimic sex tape. ~end rant~
Here is the Kara Video for Jump so you can see what I am talking about.
A song needs to be seriously good to fit into my repertoire of K-pop history. Give me something that the song itself can hold up over time. Something where I can enjoy just listening to it.
Seotaiji "Come back Home"
Jinusean "How Deep is your Love"
Park ji Yoon "Steal Away"
Just sharing my opinions on current K-pop and comparing it to the History of K-pop as I know it. I've been listening to K-pop since it first started with Seotaiji and Boys back in the Early 90's

Co-Ed Kids
Wow I was surprised to find that I ended up liking this song. From a group I never heard of before Co-Ed School. From the beginning of the Music video I did a total eyeroll at the overly cutsey decor and expected a crapped out SNSD "Gee" type of song but it turned out really enjoyable.
"Bbi Ri Bbom Bbae Ri Bbom"
"Bbi Ri Bbom Bbae Ri Bbom"

Goth in Korea
No it doesn't really work in K-pop but it was a nice try.
I can't hate 2NE1 they are my current favorite for a newer group, I think they have the moxy to make them last as long as SES did before breaking up.
At least the song tempo matched with the music video and the styling was still spectacular. They just aren't Goth.....
It kind of made me think of the Tempo of SES "Eternal Love" which I am epically surprised that I can not find a Video for.
