It was a tie between SHINee and U-KISS in the poll, at 36%, but since SHINee had been included in the poll for a longer time, I decided that it was their time. Oh and SHINee is my absolute favorite group in the kpop universe. I will try, and fail, to not be biased. Continue reading
Spotlight
Putting the Spotlight on SISTAR!
SISTAR had been in the spotlight polls for the longest time, but now they (surprisingly, since SHINee was in the poll) finally won! They got 46% of the votes and earned themselves all the attention they will now get. Continue reading
Putting the Spotlight on 2NE1!
Finally there were only girl groups in the poll, so I knew that it was (finally) time for me to carefully place the spotlight on some lovely ladies. The poll was very even for the longest time, but in the end 2NE1 took the win with 36% of the votes! Continue reading
Putting the Spotlight on Super Junior!
Seriously, as long as there is even a single boy group in the poll, the girls have no chance. This time around Super Junior took it, with 43% of the votes. Continue reading
Putting the Spotlight on B.A.P!
The girls had no chance, and B.A.P got voted in for this Spotlight with 56% of the votes. Continue reading
Putting the Spotlight on EXO!
EXO were shockingly beat out by NU’EST in the poll for the last spotlight, but this time they were back with a vengeance. With a massive 50% of the votes, this spotlight, this highlighting of this massively powerful group, truly belongs to them. Continue reading
Putting the Spotlight on NU’EST!
This time we’re highlighting NU’EST, which is very surprising to me. EXO was included in the last poll, and for the first ten days of the poll being up it looked like they for sure would take it, but then NU’EST pulled it back and won by just one vote. Good job guys! Not many people can take down the SM powerhouse. Continue reading
Putting the Spotlight on VIXX!
The purpose of the spotlights is to highlight a group, to introduce them in a way that could help a newcomer know whether or not this group is something they want to check out. At least that’s what I had in mind when I thought of it. What group is featured is decided by a poll included in the former spotlight, so this is all up to you!
This time around we’re highlighting VIXX, a group that have really solidified their position in the kpop loop. Continue reading
Putting the Spotlight on BTS!
Quite some time ago now I allowed you guys to vote on whether or not you would want me to write something like the now scrapped battles, but where the results would be decided by your votes. And while the result was positive, that poll didn’t get nearly enough traffic for me to feel secure in that people would actually vote. So I decided to scrap that idea, and move forward with another idea that I’ve had for quite some time: the Spotlights! I wanted a way for you guys to be able to influence what gets written about on this blog, and this will be such a way. Continue reading
