Because I’m too lazy to do some analysis and stuff, I decided to do photospams instead just so I’ll have a reason to update this blog.
So for today’s installment, I’m putting up caps of JiYoon’s perf from last week’s InkiGayo. Yes! JiYoon! And you thought HyunAh was the only 4minute member with activities these days.
Actually, Miryo was the original rapper for Lisa’s song We Should Get Married. And no, I don’t have any info on who Lisa really is. Anyway, since Miryo was unavailable for this performance, 4minute’s all-around talented girl Jeon Ji Yoon was asked to rap Miryo’s lines instead (you should already know by now how talented this girl is, and if not, shame on you!). I’m gonna go assume Miryo recommended JiYoon for the job since these two had already collaborated before.
Based on the practice vid below, it looks like JiYoon had little time to memorize and practice the song because every now and then, she was looking back at the lyrics, which was tacked on the wall. Check out the clip care of uturn.
JiYoon even initiated the heart thing at the end! What a play girl, no?
And here’s the actual perf last Sunday care of chriscorpius6.
So yeah she kinda forgot the lyrics there a little bit during the second verse. And it became very obvious too when she sported that huge smile afterwards. But since I’m biased, I’m gonna say it’s because she had little time to practice. Besides, her cutesy smile afterwards more than made up for that teeny mistake. So anyway, here are some caps from the perf care of 4minute’s baidu bar. Just click the pics to enlarge.
It’s nice to see her with normal-ish hair again. Except for the tiny ponytail at the back, her hairstyle looks sooooooooo cute on her. I hope Lisa would give JiYoon another chance next week. I’m sure JiYoon will deliver a perfect performance this time.
Anyway, here’s the original track with Miryo in case you want to compare. Credit to urnobody191.
UPDATE: I changed parts 3 and 4 with the subbed versions. Thanks to BEGsubcrew for their hard work.
I think I just died from 2:12 to 2:17. Now that’s some sexy back! I might just see my reflection there if I look at Ga-in’s back up close. Glad to see BEG getting a lot of love. The girls were their usual sexy self, but is it just me or were the girls spunkier here? Also, more fireworks! This is what has set apart BEG from the current crop of girl groups. The stage seems so bare and thrifty (? not sure what to call it) with the rest of them, but with BEG, you get a full show each time they perform Abracadabra, or any of their songs for that matter (see Nights, Moody).
Except for the part where they taught the freakishly tall host to dance Abracadabra (awkward), nothing much going on here, only because there are no subs yet. So will somebody please sub this show? Anyone? Bueller? Also look how shy Miryo is with her outfit. Hehe. Cute. Can’t blame her though. That thing runs all the way up to her groin.
Favorite part of the show up to this point. Dayuuumm…this just validated that Narsha is my favorite BEG member. It used to be a toss-up between her and Ga-in, but Ga-in is a very very close 1b. I think Narsha is the most playful member of BEG (and I bet the most fun to be around) so it’s always great seeing this side of her when given the chance. She never fails to amuse/amaze me.
Ga-in’s Rainism made me cringe and laugh at the same time. Hehe. I don’t know if Miryo intentionally went to that side to help Ga-in with her choreo or she just didn’t know the dance.
Check out Miryo’s segment here. That should me more than enough reason why this ep should get subbed quickly. But even though I didn’t understand a word she said, her freestyle here was downright filthy. Baddest female who? (Hyun Bin makes a special guest appearance! Woot!)
K: Now, the Brown Eyed Girls have told us that they will show us a few of their talents here today. Now, Miss Miryo over here was part of a hip hop group called ‘Honey Family’ a long time ago, do you guys remember? Yes, she was the lead female rapper, so its obvious that she is incredibly skilled at rapping, isn’t it? That’s why were going to ask you to show us your free style rapping skills here today!
-WOOOOOOT-
K: But just to spice things up we are going to give her different topics to base her rap upon, here we have the topics..
CAPTION: Mission: Incorporate the 3 topics that are drawn into the freestyle rap!
K: We were going to ask you to draw 3 topics, and base your freestyle rap upon them, are you up to it?
M…………………………….. –Laughs- Yes… OF COURSE
K: It looks like she was thinking that one over, but
-LOL-
K: Alright, I’ll pick the first topic. – Picks one- Mm, now lets see what our first topic is… -Untying- Wow they tied it up really tight… -Untied- And our first topic is… <HYUN-BIN>
Caption: Miryo’s Ideal Guy? ‘Hyun Bin’
J: That’s her ideal guy!
K: Oh really? Hyun Bin is our first topic here~
N: The color is suddenly returning to Miryo’s face~ ^^
K: Now I’ll pick the second topic.. And it is… <Hong Tak Sam Hab>
N: Isn’t that skate? (The fish)
K: Hong Tak Sam Hab (food) is a dish with Hong-Uh (Skate) Takju, and Sam Gyub Sal (bacon)
M: Ah… Yes, Hong Tak Sam Hab… Hyun Bin…
K: Yes they’re completely unrelated, this just turned very interesting, ladies and gentlemen.
CAPTION: ‘Hyun Bin’ and ‘Hong Tak Sam Hab’… That’s so hard~ T_____T
K: And for the last one, how about Miss Miryo, pick one yourself
M: -Deep Sigh- Yes…
K: Is something troubling you? You sighed so deeply
M: Yes… Please… -Picking- This ones telling me to pick it~
K: Yes, I don’t think it matters what you pick now, its just that interesting already!
M: Yes… Please~~
K: -Untying- Hyun Bin, Hong Tak Sam Hab and…
M: JJAN!!! (TADA!!)
K: A COW. Wow, this is just too difficult! Hyun Bin, Hong Tak Sam Hab, and a cow…
M: This is hilarious
Caption: Will Miryo be able to successfully create a rap about these 3 unrelated topics on the SPOT?
K: Now~
-Music Starts-
M: One day I opened my eyes, and I looked upon the headlines,
Turns out Hyun Bin and Song Hye Kyo had intertwining love lives,
Hyun Bin’s manly attractive sense, gone like the Hong Tak Sam Hab that I was talking about,
No doubt,
Oh my, where do I find a man like that anymore,
When he’s the man of some other woman, he closed the door,
On me,
Like the pure white milk, from a spotted cow,
I wanted to drink his affection every then and now, no everyday
But too bad now, he ain’t solo.
Now I can’t call his name no mo
The man of my dreams, if I shout his name,
I become a desperate and lifeless dame
And I pondered, “Oh, what do I do now?”
And I figured it out, I finally knew what to do and how.
“Call me when you’re solo again~
K: Truth is, I was really sorry because we asked her to do something so difficult all of a sudden but she pulled it off all so well that was incredible!
N: Us, the members, were even surprised at that
K: Classy, yes~ Now, Miss Narsha?
N: For me, well these days I’ve been having a keen interesting in beatboxing,
K: Oh, beatboxing!
N: Yes. Well, I personally think I’m not bad,
K: Well as long as you yourself has confidence, that’s important!
N: But after about 4 beats, they tell me to stop…
J: Its actually after around 2 beats that it starts to get unbearable to listen to
N: But today I really practiced a lot, so
J: Wow~
K: Really?
N: Should I…?
K: Yes, please!
Caption:< Narsha’s 4 Beat Beatboxing>
N: -Beatboxing- -Uh, ye, uh- -Breath- -COUGH- SORRY!
K: So at the end, the cough is a sign that you’re going to wrap things up, yes?
N: Yes, exactly. The cough at the end was professionally designated, and planned, at the end, to allow the audience to know that the end is near.
J: It’s a new method.
N: yes, yes
K: Yes, a new method, ending the beatbox with a cough.
K: Now, Miss Ga-In~
G: Yes
K: What did you prepare for us today?
G: Well for me, I really like to dance~
K: Oh, really Ga-In?
G: Yes, but the thing is… If you see me dance for too long… You might puke, and get the shivers
K: Ah, so it’s a short and sweet thing?
G: Yes, it is! Very short.

RAINISM- By GA-IN
Caption: Her back hurts! Short and sweet enough, lets stop!
K: Ah, Ga-In prepared ‘Rainism’ by Rain. It’s a really masculine dance, but it was good, boyish and chic.
J: She resembles Rain a bit as well
K: She resembles Rain?!
G: Wait, pardon?!
J: She does look like Rain!
K: Now that I think about it… She does sort of look like Rain…
Caption: She does resemble him…
K: Yes, her very… Horizontal eyes as well..
J: Attractive eyes
K: Yes, very attractive. Thank you Ga-In, lets have a round of applause!
-Applause-
K: I would love to see more from the Brown Eyed Girls in the future, amazing productions, once again. Now, the Brown Eyed Girls have prepared a little bit more for us today
J:We really prepared songs that would bring out some parts of us that you’ve never heard of before
K: And we’ll be looking forward to it! Round of applause!

Finally, why nothing on the leader? She always get to talk the least in their guestings. Like I said, the clip above was my favorite part of the show up to that point. Until they did this…
Iz over! If after watching this you’re still not convinced that BEG is the most talented girl group out there right now, then you’re either on crack or a 2NE1 fan. Just kidding. Seriously, was that the best version of A&A (besides the original) you’ve seen/heard? Call me crazy, but this might be even better than the R&B version of 2PM themselves. Live versions are always great, but doing it with a live band is the best. So jazzy! And I likey!
If that didn’t blow you away, the second perf definitely would. Narsha looked like a cute kid with her wig and outfit when she came out. Then she started doing her thing and it surprised the hell out of me. Man, that was some hot shiznit! Mind you, this is a Drunken Tiger song, not some weak sauce rap song where the verses are just being spoken. I haven’t heard the original, but I’ll definitely be checking it out soon. If that wasn’t enough, she even got the high notes perfectly (kinda weird when they zoomed in on her because she looked like she couldn’t fully open her mouth during those high notes). Don’t worry, I didn’t forget about Miryo. She looked like the female Outsider doing her thing up there (Narsha likes performing with awesome/legit rappers, no? While Miryo likes to co-rap with other females). If they did the best rapper survey after showing this ep, Miryo would be number one of course. But I bet the rest would be tied at number 2, all of them with zero votes (or 1% at most), no doubt about it. Lastly, I want that banner thing they were waving. And while I’m at it, kindly sign it as well.
Finally, I like this rock version of Eojjeoda better than the emo version they did before. And check out Narsha. Told you she was the most playful Brown Eyed Girl. Then you got JeA. Listening to her sing live is always a treat. Just check out how she rips her part in Eojjeoda. Amazing vocal prowess. And Narsha’s just so proud to be a part of BEG, waving that banner every time she got. But who wouldn’t? Just when I was about to get old of Abracadabra, and right before I was about to be swept by some s-s-s-s-sexy Muzik, (still hotter than f(x)’s debut and 2NE1′s comeback IMO, more on that later), they pull off something like this (granted they taped this a few weeks ago but only aired it this weekend) and remind me that they’re still the best girl group around.
To that, I say MORE BEG PLEASE! And somebody sub this damn episode already! And yes, Abracadabra fever is still very much alive! Still, I wish the girls would be given a much-needed break. They’ve been promoting their songs non-stop for more than a month now. Even if they’re veterans who have been through this before, their schedule is too craaaazy! Pulling off sometimes two-, three-a-day gigs, every day of the week. If they do get a break, hopefully they can secure their own show that will give their fans a glimpse on their lives off the glamorous stage, ala-2NE1TV.
PS
For those who want a ripped version of the last three songs, you can join the BEG community at LJ and get your copy there.
…they really have become the most overrated group right now. But it’s not their fault.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m not an anti-fan. Heck, I even had a 2NE1 addiction for a couple of weeks after watching 2NE1TV. It became so bad that I had to look at the picture below each day just so I could move on to normalcy.
She says, "I don't care." I say, "WTF?"
So what if she’s cross-eyed? I think CL still has the tightest body in all of Kpop right now, while Minzy is probably the cutest maknae around.
However, the recent influx of girl groups in the Kpop scene already had me on the brink of giving up my 2NE1 fandom. But what really pushed me off the edge was the sudden germination of 2NE1 fanatics who spam the comments section of Kpop sites, YouTube and other Kpop message boards. If you’re a fan of Kara, BEG, 4minute, SNSD or even T-ARA, I’m sure you know what/who I’m talking about.
Fortunately, my fascination quickly shifted to another quartet, a superiorly talented, albeit underrated one at that.
You see, as one of the many Kpop fans who can’t read/understand Korean, I mainly rely on websites that translate my daily Kpop news to English. These include the simple but always reliable K Bites, the always opinionated Seoulbeats, the glitzy Allkpop and the controversial Popseoul. Besides reading the latest Kpop news, which is practically the same in all 4 sites, I’m also interested in finding out what their readers (mostly non-Korean Kpop fans) have to say about the article.
The comments didn’t bother me at first because everyone’s entitled to their opinion. But as girl groups kept debuting and making comebacks one after the other, the once tranquil comments section became a venue for bashing and trashtalking. Although these fans aren’t required to be unbiased, these kindsofarticles (srsly?) only fueled the fire between 2NE1. But I guess the author didn’t know that. Or maybe she did and just wanted to express her fandom. Whatevs. Maybe I’m just looking for something to nitpick. But at least some writers were decent enough to put things in a properperspective.
Shocking news: 4minute is pretty good!
I have to admit that I was also part of those who doubted the originality of this group and dismissed them as one of those soon-to-be-forgotten acts right after they debut. Because let’s be honest. Even if they claim that their name was inspired from their desire to capture the audience with their charms in 4 minutes or whatever (also, check out how people shamelessly bash this group at the comments section), I know for sure that they got their name here:
listen from 0:40 onwards and compare it with the intro of this.
You can even argue that the 2:45 to 2:50 mark of Hot Issue sounds like the 2:00 to 2:05 part of Boom Boom Pow. Check it out below:
Then you can’t deny the fashion similarities between 4minute and 2NE1. Of course, this drew the ire of 2NE1 fans, who were quick to point out that it was Hyun Ah and friends who are the copycats. So I guess the debut of 4minute was the turning point that transformed the borderline-fanatic 2NE1 fans to crazier-than-SNSD-antis non-2NE1 girl group bashers.
However, before finally ignoring 4minute completely, one of the girls caught my eye. She single-handedly convinced me that I should give 4minute another chance. Maybe it was her cool voice. Maybe it was her sultry look. Maybe it was her overeager, overcompensating, exaggerated dance moves. Or maybe it was the mysterious vibe behind those sunglasses. Whatever it was, it made me interested. Plus, after digging the Google machine to find out more about her, I find out that her resemblance to Yoobin (hottest WG member) is uncanny. And she’s talented too. Ferrealz.
Who's who?
So little by little, I came to appreciate each of 4minute’s members. Hyun Ah, the central character who everyone wants to hate on. Ga Yoon, the main vocalist who is the least attractive in the group, for me, and looks more Chinese than Korean. And the Hyun Twins, So Hyun and Ji Hyun. They’re like the female version of the SHINee Twins, Onew and Key.
I know 4minute isn’t the most original group to come out these days, but who is anyway? Another thing I liked is that they sort of came out of nowhere and people didn’t really have any expectations about them. But they’re doing well now and it’s unfortunate that those delusional 2NE1 fans are raining on their parade.
In a way, this heated rivalry between the two newbies (although the girls will deny that there’s one), reminded me of last year’s rivalry between two rookie boy groups. Remember how SHINee burst out of the scene, topped charts and swept away rookie awards? This year, 2NE1 has done the same ever since they debuted. What 2NE1 lacks in talent compared to SHINee (what? 2NE1 fans please don’t tell me they’re more talented than SHINee), they more than make up in stage presence. So what does that make 4minute? And no, please don’t say U-Kiss.
Well, there was this other boyband that debuted late last year. Its members weren’t really strong vocally. They were pretty good dancers, but their debut song was kinda weak compared to SHINee’s and the song was just too gimmicky overall (you know how some fangirls’ go crazy over the tiniest guy-to-guy action). Still, their launch was moderately successful (probably mainly because they were from JYP, one of the Holy Trinity in Kpop), although nowhere near the magnitude of 2NE1′s or SHINee’s. It took them a little while, but this group really took off after they released their second album that showed their more serious side. Coincidentally, this group has collaborated with 4minute, at least once, already.
Going back to the 2NE1-SHINee comparison, if YG’s one perf per week strategy for her beloved girls continues, I’ll bet it will come back and bite him on the ass. will backfire. So I’m curious to see what YG will do to top I Don’t Care’s success. Although they won some awards, SHINee’s comeback this year was a disappointment overall, at least for me, mainly because of the high expectations that surrounded it. But YG is a pretty smart guy so I’m sure he’ll come up with something to sell albums. Heck, he was even witty to come up with a new meaning for 2NE1′s name. On the other hand, YG has failed before. Big time.
Like I said earlier, I’m not a 2NE1 hater, but I’m not a 4minute apologist either. I’ll even be the first to point out that they’ve had their share of shakyperformances. This happens when your company rushes your debut to cash in on a trend.
To make a long story short, watching 4minute’s performances made me realize that they actually have some talent. Although their stage presence isn’t as great as 2NE1′s yet, they might just be more talented than their YG rivals. Yeah, that’s right. I said it: 4minute might be more talented than 2NE1, as a group. Individually, I don’t know yet since I haven’t seen enough of their non-Hyun Ah/Ji Yoon members. However, I think 4minute has more potential than 2NE1. Ji Yoon’s voice can adapt to any kind of song, Hyun Ah’s rapping will shoot up once Cube lets her use her own voice and I’m sure the Twins have something good in store that will catch us off guard, at least I hope they do. In fact, the songs on their debut album shows how much they’ve improved in such a short time. The songs are so awesome that I can’t wait to see them performed live. Plus, Ji Yoon without glasses!!! Her new ‘do looks Rihanna-ish but whatever. It looks good on her and depending on 4minute’s comeback outfits, she might just take over CL as the female idol with the tightest body.
Maybe I just don’t know how else 2NE1 could top their success with I Don’t Care. I mean let’s be honest. CL is a pretty good rapper, but her singing voice is as good as Rihanna’s at best, and that isn’t a compliment. Minzy has a similar singing voice to CL’s, but her best asset is her dancing. She’s a fine dancer, albeit in a pedotastic, scandalous kind of way. But if she wants to pop and lock her way to the top, she still has a long way to go. I think she has the most potential in the group. Bom has a powerful voice and Dara can surprisingly hit them high notes, but can you imagine them singing other than those high-pitched tunes? Plus, I doubt if they can dance to a style other than what YG imposes on them. CL’s stage presence can only take them so far.
One thing 2NE1 has going for them is their great command of the English language, which is unprecedented among Kpop idols. This is one of the reasons why they’ve gained lots of fans outside of Korea. Unfortunately, some of them have trolled the Kpop sites we’ve come to love, which has totally ruined my 2NE1 experience. And don’t even get me started withGDandallthehoopla surrounding his first solo album. That’s for another post. Forget plagiarism (The Leaders? Heartbreaker). Two words: autotune overkill. I wonder what Jay-Z would say about his album… Oh wait.
Thank goodness these girls came back. And while we’re at the boyband comparison, they’re comeback this year was like DBSK’s last year. Calm down Cassiopeians. I know it’s sacrilegious to compare DBSK with another group but check this out.
Both came back with a very (!!!) sexy image.
Both groups aren’t really known for their dancing but pulled off the sexy moves perfectly.
Both groups still have the best singers among all the Kpop groups today.
Does this make Kara, this year’s 2008 version of FT Island? Not too bad.
I think I’ve ran out of boybands to analogize. And you still have T-ARA, Jewelry, the comebacking After School, and SM’s new baby, f(x), while SNSD and WG are in a league of their own. That’s a boatload of girl groups. Am I complaining? Certainly not. I say, bring it on!
She's like a supervaiseeerrrrr (stolen from BEGirls)
Brown Eyed Girls Miryo has been voted by netizens are the best rapper amongst all idol groups.
On community portal site DCInside, a poll was carried out from 18th till 25th August on ‘The rapper which you think is the most talented amongst female idol group members’, and Miryo was voted #1 with 3,072 votes out of 9,358 votes (32.8%).
The rest of the poll results show:
Brown Eyed Girls Miryo (32.8%)
2NE1 CL (29.2%)
KARA Nicole (18.9%)
Wonder Girls YooBin
2NE1 Gong MinJi
That should those delusional 2NE1 fans. I still like 2NE1, but come on, saying shiznit like Minzy dances better than Hyoyeon or CL is the best female rapper out there? That’s like saying Yoochun is talented or something. Just kidding! DBSK fans, please spare my life. But I will admit one thing: CL’s body has been ridiculously smokin’ lately.
Who cares if she's cross-eyed? (stolen from allkpop)
But I’m kinda surprised that Minzy is in that list. And Nicole too. I didn’t know Kara had a rapper.
Anyway, congrats to Miryo. She tops my female rapper list too. Second would be E.via then maybe CL and Yoobin. I heard Tasha is dope but haven’t had the chance to listen to her yet so I can’t include her in the list. After being treated to a sweet dance battle (even without Hyoyeon) recently, maybe we can have a freestyle rap-off between these nasty females next. Who’s with me?
Is it Ga-in or Ga In? Whatever. Because I still have Abracadabra and BEG’s hips stuck on my head, and more recently, Eojjeoda, eojjeoda, eojjeoda (!!!), I figured that posting Son Ga-in pics might be therapeutic for my BEGaddiction. I know she isn’t the prettiest girl in today’s Kpop scene, but Ga-in’s eyes are killing meeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! She’s very seductive and sexy even if she’s so delicately thin. And I’ve also realized by digging through her old unsubbed (can someone please sub them?) videos that her off-stage antics are sooo adorable .
I stole most of these pics from other people’s sites, except for a couple of GIFs that I made myself (yeah, my BEG addiction has been that bad) and some YouTube caps. Anyway, I hope this post helps OUR Son Ga-in craving. I haven’t really found a site that has a massive Ga-in photofest, which is another reason I decided to do this. Enjoy.
Idol Army caps that I made into a GIF
Another Idol Army GIF. Thank goodness Wooyoung saved her from that creepy Roora (Raymond Bagatsing lookalike) guy
This is too cute not to post. Tomato girl
This might set your PC on fire
Even Narsha is mesmerized by Ga-in
Ga-in covering CSJH's One More Time, OK? with WG's Sun Mi and SeeYa's Gyuri
Rawwwrrrr!!!
More Narsha and Ga-in lovefest
Looking kinda like 2ne1's Minzy here
Too much makeup but still a cutie
Shy or seductive? Both!
Isn't she just adorable here? Very innocent-looking!
Really, really pretty here
Scarily thin here but that look will melt you
Modeling for Nike. Perfect angle!
SNSD-inspired. Looks like a cartoon version of her on her shirt
I like how she doesn't look scarily thin here. Soooo sexxxy!
This fashionista look is soooo chic. The fit is perfect!
Covering Ivy's A-ha. To quote one comment on YT: "there's no way somebody's that hot!"
Her real hair underneath the wig. Not a big fan of this hairstyle but as long as she wears the wig, I'm ok
Long stockings + Ga-in's legs = hotnessssss
Tomboy look suits her just fine too. Omomomomo
Sailormoon outfit. I likey! They should make her an honorary SNSD member
Kinda looks like Tiffany here but that leather outfit is too sinful
The Snow White look
That oh-so-subtle tattoo on her left wrist just made her 1,000,000 hotter in my book. The summer outfit didn't hurt either.
1950's-inspired or Wonder Girls-inspired? Who cares?!!! They added their own flavor to it
Just look at those legs! Just look at them! After you're done, look at them again and repeat!
Surprise! Even Ga-in has some cleavage too! Hoooly!
This is why ABRACADABRA live is such a holy-shiznit-srsly-scorching perf everytime
Srsly. Can she get any hotter?
When she's not in seduction mode, her natural cuteness surfaces instead. Aigoo...
More wigless Abracadabra pics
It's always good to see her looking healthy. Please maintain this figure Ga-in!
From Family Shares. Look at that concentration. Too bad it only hit the floor. Hehe
How can you not resist that look? Grrrr...
Always fun to see childhood pics of celebs. Very cute! She kinda looks more Chinese than Korean as a kid
There goes those legs again. This begs the question: which is sexier? her eyes or legs? Discuss
She could definitely pose as Minzy's older sister
I don't know if Miryo is having fun with this perf or if she's laughing at Ga-in's position. This was at Kim Jung Eun's Chocolate. Can't wait for the vids!
More from Chocolate. This Rainism perf is making me really really antsy
Even with her shades on, she's still crazily seductive
Don't worry Ga-in, you're still cute even without makeup
I'm currently melting
Ok, so even after posting these pics, Ga-in fever still isn’t over for me. I think it became even worse. So, I’m going after you next. Yeah I’m looking at you Narsha.
Poor girl. She was probably the most emotional because she had to make the biggest transformation in the group, from most conservative to ultra-hottest. Holy. Let’s not go there. We all know how hot they are right now, on the charts and on the stage. A well-deserved win. Congrats BEG. Can’t get this song out of my head. Actually, I can’t get BEG, especially Ga-in and Narsha, out of my head.
