uiscerosAnd suddenly I have a lot more love for Super Junior (despite still not being able to tell them apart)
Super Junior at the GMAs
As the article states, the GMAs are the Golden Melody Awards, which are basically the Chinese Grammy's. I guess they're going to be the ONLY foreign group at the awards. Sorry Sorry was/is a HUGE hit in Taiwan, on the top of the foreign Asian music charts there. I'm so happy that SOMEONE is actually going to Taiwan! People tend to forget the country exists, and so while Korean and Japanese bands cross promote into each other's countries, they forget all about Taiwan (Taiwanese artists, on the other hand, promote in Japan at least, and often become famous there). And yes, I know it's based on similarity in culture and language (plsu distance), but STILL! Kpop bands routinely go to Malaysia, which is closer to Chinese culture than Korean culture... *is bitter*
So yay for SuJu! Way to be awesome Taiwanese promoters, guys! Now, if only Big Bang would get in on the Taiwan action. Preferably while I am in Taiwan.
