I don't know what to think about this song, Sunny should go with something like 'Echo', this song sounds 'dated' IMO. I wish her the best tho, clearly they gave her solo because she's not in TTS, she should have something to do right?
Girl's Day and Ailee will cover Ariana's "Problem" together
SISTAR will sing "Some" together with actors featuring on the song
GDYB / Masta Wu-Dok2-Bobby will get performances
Seo Taiji will sing "SOGYEOKDONG" with IU and sing "Come Back Home" (not the 2NE1 song) with Block B's Zico
Well actually 2014 has been hit & miss all trhough the year, some acts release major bops. Actually SM pretty much delivered this year as usual SNSD had one of the worse release from the company this year (wait it's actually sadly true )
We had pretty much good rooky female group like MAMAMOO, KISS & Cry ( ), Purfles, LABOUM, ant that Jelly thing thing (with the psycho in it, I actually don't know the name of the group) & Ledubelbe. Male Rookie group we had WINNER (and weirdly I can't think of one male rookie group that wow me this year).
But this year we had the explosion of solo (Solo Solo Day as B1A4 would say), Hyosung, Jieun, HyunA, Hyorin, Jiyeon, Hyomin, Hyorin, Soyou, Mina, Soji, Gain, ZhouMi, Taemin, Mino, CL, Sunmi, HA:TFELT (or whatever is her name), even Sunny got her solo. (Poor Tiffany)
Sunny did not get a solo. Its a song for a special project, just like an OST. you cant count it assolo
China's Tencent Pacts With South Korea's YG Entertainment
Chinese online giant Tencent has signed an exclusive deal with South Korean music company YG Entertainment, whose artists include Psy, BigBang and 2NE1, to distribute K-Pop and other content in the booming Chinese market.
Tencent's move is aimed at finding more ways to tap into the love of Korean culture in China. As well as wearing K-fashion and listening to K-Pop, Korean soap operas and movies are hugely popular in the country.
"YG Entertainment has a talented portfolio of artists and this strategic partnership will instantly offer Korean fans in China a stream of high-quality music, songs and MVs," said Dowson Tong, senior executive vice president at Tencent.
"We look forward to launching exclusive YG content across our extensive services and raising our users’ experience to whole new levels," said Tong.
The agreement means Tencent will also become the sole online sub-distributor of YG’s content in the country, giving Chinese instant access to YG Entertainment’s music and MVs from Korea’s hottest pop artists.
There will also be a strict license agreement between Tencent and YG Entertainment.
"As a leading pop culture icon in Asia, YG Entertainment is glad to form a strategic partnership with Tencent," said Yang Min-Suk, CEO of YG Entertainment. "We have already been active in the market for two years but this alliance with Tencent will further boost the presence of our artists in China. We look forward to working with Tencent to bringing amazing music to the growing Korean entertainment fan base in China."
