My Music Radar! Under the Radar! the lighter side and other updates!

Here at My Music Radar! we try to bring you important kpop news all in one place so you don't have to go searching through countless sites looking for 1 or 2 important news stories.

However it's come to our attention that we have a lighter side too!

Sometimes we just have a single video or picture that though it caught our attention, for one reason or another, it does not fit into our popular news format.

Sometimes we share that single item through our chatbox, but then the item is lost once the chat advances, so we present to you,

My Music Radar! Under The Radar!

Please feel free to follow us by clicking the link provided on the upper right corner of MMR! and look forward to our lighter side!

Other changes are happening too!

As always we try to keep a fresh look here on MMR! so we have added a few items and moved others around. There is a new 'popular post' feature that shows the most popular posts here on MMR! for the past 7 days.

There is also a convenient search option all the way at the bottom of the page so you can find anything here on MMR!

The future of MMR! is coming!

2 new things to look forward to are:

1.The My Music Radar! dedicated Twitter.

Things are pretty much ready to launch so look forward to joining us on Twitter soon!

2.The return of stormoftara to MMR!

Yatta! I really can't wait because though I have been trying very hard, I just can't do this alone anymore (8 to 10 hours a day devoted to MMR! much as I adore kpop and all our friends and fans means I don't have much of a life these days >.<)

Tara is working on a very special comeback corner as we speak! And since all her posts have proven to be very popular, she will also be coming back with a special 'MMR! Page' of her own! So look forward to that and please take care her.

Okies friends and fans, that brings us up to date with all things new and exciting here on My Music Radar! As always thank you for your continued support.

SM reveals preview of Siwon & Donghae’s Taiwanese drama, ‘Skip Beat’

Back in August, we reported that Super Junior‘s Siwon and Donghae were cast as the male leads for the Taiwanese drama, ‘Skip Beat‘. On December 1st, SM Entertainment released a 2-minute long preview of the series, which also included a sample of the main theme song.
‘Skip Beat’ is a live-action adaptation of the popular Japanese comic, which tells the story of a girl who’s determined to be a star in order to get revenge on the ex-boyfriend that dumped her. In this drama, Ivy Chen plays the main female lead, with Siwon and Donghae bumping heads over her.
The main theme song for ‘Skip Beat’ is reportedly titled “S.O.L.O.“, and is said to have been sung by Super Junior-M.
Check out the preview below, and stay tuned for more updates!

T-ara Releases Cry Cry Music Video

The wait is finally over, Cry Cry is here! This is a very powerful, and long music video, so perhaps go make some popcorn before you watch it. It's not just a music video, it's a movie.



Published on Nov 8, 2011 by LOENENT

This video is only half of the story, T-ara will be releasing part 2, Lovey-dovey, at some point in the future. I hope soon!

This video was much more mature than their previous works. It is the tale of a girl who sees her father shot and killed. Ten years later, a shocking truth is revealed to her when a man who escaped from her house on the night of her father's murder is brought back into her life. It's hard for me to understand all of what's going on with my very, very, limited grasp Korean, but the story still stands on it's own even if you don't know any Korean at all.

The song in and of itself is amazing, it sends chills down my spine just listening to it. I can't wait for the next part to released!

SMTown in New York, the movie!

Going to SMTown Live in New York was one of the best experiences in my life, so imagine my delight when I heard that it's going to be made into a movie!

A movie documenting the performances and daily lives of SM Entertainment artists at New York’s ‘SM TOWN Live’ concert will be released next year.

The co-producer of this movie, CJ Entertainment, stated, “A movie will be made telling the real story, behind the scenes and off stage, from the ‘SM Town Live World Tour in New York’, which saw stages from Kangta, BoA, TVXQ, Super Junior, SNSD, SHINee, and f(x).”

The movie will be a joint project between CJ Entertainment and SM Entertainment, and will contain footage of rehearsals, heartfelt confessions, the transformation from trainees to stars, and interviews about the artists’ future dreams.

The movie will be released in the first half of 2012 under the title ‘I am: SM Town Live World Tour in Madison Square Garden’.

New Hip Hop Group We Releases New Music Video

A new hip hop group has hit the Korean scene, and they are amazing.

New rookie group ‘WE‘ has just released their first digital single “The Rain” on November 1st. The group’s dynamics are different, made up of three male members (Macho, Kang Han, Man Do), with female vocalist Rosie. Each member has worked professionally in various fields as a dancer, rapper, CF model, and musical star and have captured the attention of the industry with their undeniably powerful stage presence. The group named themselves ‘WE’, meaning the four of them must come together to be explosive, and the four will continue to look ‘up’ and are determined to reach the ‘top’. They want to show the industry what they are made of, as a powerful performance team.

Here is their soulful music video, Rainy Days.

Uploaded by AsianDream2015 on Oct 31, 2011

The video is a bit repetitive, and I wish we could get a better look at the whole band. All in all though the song itself is amazing and moving and I love it!

I look forward to what We has in store for us next!

SMTown In New York - The Long Road to the Show - My Music Radar! Style!

It was a long road to this show, not just the trains, planes and automobiles, or the deficits  we were working under, but also because it took so damn long for SMTown to come to New York.
BoA says in her intro that she never thought she would have a show in Madison Square Garden, but, here she was, and she goes on to thank the fans for all their hard work for getting them there. My mind wandered to all the flash mobs...and buying so much music on iTunes and all the love, yes it took a lot of love to get us all under one roof (take THAT Lee Soo Man!). This trip for My Music Radar! was all about the artists and their music. And it was our trip, mine and Tara's with wonderful memories we will have for always.
I got to see a real live Jongkey moment!

And I got to see SHINee perform Replay, still one of my fav songs ever.

So if you spot our logo give a shout and say hello!

An Introduction

Hello everyone, I am stormoftara, but you can call me tstorm or just Tara. I am going to be helping Stormy out by posting blogs about things she doesn't cover. I will be reviewing music videos, and talking more about the girl groups.

A little bit about myself. I am an artist, and I like to draw a lot! If I draw any fanart I will be sure to post it here. I work full time as a manager at a restaurant, so I won't be updating as much as Stormy but I will do my best! I enjoy all kinds of music but I will be mainly focusing on K-pop here as well as some American bands that are K-pop influenced.

Thank you Stormy for allowing me to be a contributor!

I am awesome. Deal with it. XD

Quick of wit and hella funny I am very happy to have her join My Music Radar!
We will continue to work hard to always bring you a better My Music Radar!
Please look after her.
