2008 K-Pop Goodies

This year as Korean American fans would say, "is the year of the Koreans." Many Korean artists have announced that they are crossing borders onto the American entertainment scene. But before they do, some of them want to squeeze what's left of there Korean career this year.

The releases on this list do not have a verified date, but were already seen on official websites as upcoming singles or albums.


ALBUMS

KARA [Volume 2] - Already finalized and finished recording. Coming soon!

SS501 [Volume 2] - Will be released later this year after their single

Epik High [Volume 5] - Much anticipated album will be out later in the year

MC MONG [Volume 4]

Eun Ji-won [Volume 5]

DJ Doc [Volume 7]

Shinhwa [Volume 9]

Bada [Volume 4]

Dong Bang Shin Ki [Volume 4] - Planning to tone down Japanese promotions, the boys will be back in Korea this year

Lee Hyori [Volume 3] - I guess someone couldn't handle college and decided to come back. Predicted towards the end of the year so she can finish her studies. Predicted mid-2008 (June/July)

Ok Ju Hyun [Volume 3]

KCM (Kang Chang Mo) [Volume 4]

Gumi [Volume 4]

Son Dam Bi [Volume 1] - Her first album will be in March. She is currently in the United states brushing up on her hip hop dance skills

Wonder Girls [Volume 2] - Nine months after their successful first album, it was confirmed that they will release a second one in June


SINGLES

Super Junior [Single 3] - Unsure when the release date will be as the boys will be busy in China this year

SS501 [Single 3] - Will be released around the same time as KARA's album, for a DSP Entertainment double comeback release

Girls' Generation (SNSD) [Single 2] - The girls have not taken a break yet, so predicted date will be around mid year; unless promotions of 'KISSING YOU' will be considered the 2nd single


Which albums are you looking forward to? Personally I'm looking forward to Girls' Generation, KARA, Shinhwa, BoA, Jewelry and Epik High.

I bet Kissing You will be the single 2 from SNSD. The song is boring azz yet they decide to promote it. But well, i bet this song will have a huge success since it’s from the ‘shushi’ cheerleading team.
