TVXQ! 동방신기 東方神起 Tohoshinki

TVXQ! 동방신기 東方神起 Tohoshinki

These five mainly 21-year-old guys from Korea have been topping the Korean and Japanese(Oricon) music charts. Leading the korean wave(hallyu) around asia, these guys have what they've got to rise to such fame - Vocal and dance skills, plus looks - all of them were chosen to be artistes with SM Entertainment after winning nation-wide contests held by the largest entertainment company in Korea. They have won countless pretigious awards in Korea through the years but they are not intending to stop just there. Mastering the Japanese language only added to their advantage in the Japanese music industry, the 2nd largest after America. True enough, they are doing well all around asia these days and still constantly trying to conquer greater heights.

Take a glimpse at their acapella skills from this short video from their 2007 concert in Japan!



And this is the song that attracted me to them.. ;)
Tonight


...this is a "live" version.


This is a coverage done by a English TV station in Korea, Arirang, of TVXQ's climb to fame, in English language.
Part 1

Part 2

By the way, when they mentioned the countries that they were well-received in, they forgot to mention the rising number of fans in Singapore and Malaysia. Ya, I'm one of them in Singapore. Only, I'm over-aged to be screaming and jumping if I see them, I'll just laugh and remain infatuated at most. Hahahaha...


Enjoy!

Cheers! Love ya!
