Kim Bop


Great idea for a K-POP magazine: Kim Bop. Kimbap is Korean sushi. Though it's usually not filled with raw fish. Bop is the name of the American tenny-bopper mag. So there you have it: Kim Bop. These are actual k-pop bands: 2 pm, Big Bang, The Bubble Sisters and Rain (not a band but just one singer guy who also acts and has his own clothing line). Gong Yoo and Hyori are actors I think.

I couldn't believe it when I stumbled across the Bubble Sisters pic. They perform in blackface and dress like Buckwheat and Aunt Jemima. K-POP seems to be making inroads in the US--I wonder how the Bubble Sisters' schtick will play over here. :)
