Ajoo KPOP Korean Music
No, no... AJOO the girly man wasn't dead. He was alive and well this whole time. So what has AJOO been doing since the release of his first single, First Kiss?

Since his career in Korea wasn't really taking off, he decided to concentrate on the Thailand market. For some reason, he seems to be really popular there... maybe because it's hard to tell whether he's a man or girl (ahem "ladyboy"). AJOO was appearing on various TV shows, and doing a lot of promotions in the Thailand market. She... oops He even reached the 4th place spot on the Thai international chart. But now that he's had some success in Thailand, he's trying to do the same in Korea.

AJOO is scheduled to release his first mini-album titled, "Paparazzi" on July 3rd. The first single will also be titled, "Paparazzi." He also composed a song himself appropriately titled, "On My Knees." Because he likes to be the giver, not the receiver (unless of course his anus is involved). AJOO and STAM Entertainment are hoping this new album will launch him to super stardom.

Why is his album and single titled Paparazzi? Especially, when there are no Paparazzi surrounding this irrelevant she-man.

Here is a 30 second preview of Paparazzi:

EVERY Korean artists are a success in Thailand. TRUST ME!!
UNLESS That artist, insult and/or challenge DBSK and/or Super Junior. They’re dead in Thailand.
That’s all I’ve got to say. For Example A’st1 or whatever the hell they’re call, wanted to take down Super Junior right? Now they are hated by Thai ELF. AND Thai ELF holds grudges TRUST ME.

His lipstick is the exact same colour that the wonder girls are wearing. He’s too gender confused.

@ Stevie. May Doni disappeared again lol *shrugs*
As for Ajoo, I think he’s “pretty” not cute, but pretty >.< Still attractive though.
I had no idea he was still making music let alone still breathing.

Ditto what Atomic said!  Honestly though, when I heard the beginning I thought it was going to be a rip of that one NSYNC song, I don’t even know what it’s called.

hm.. the haircut is nice~!! but then again instead of looking like a girl, he looks like he’s twelve.

It’s really NOT true that every korean artists can make it in Thailand.  Seriously, no one knows Ajoo here.  I heard of him having a free show in BKK, just because I work near the supercenter in downtown where most promoting events are set.
Only Rain, TVXQ, and SuJu are really popular among korean music lovers.  Big Bang and FT Island are promising with a bit less than 5,000 and 2,000 attending their 1st concerts in BKK. 
Shinwha had a concert here 2 or 3 years ago (after Rain, before TVXQ 1st’s concert in BKK), but their concert was not a success with almost empty seats.  FTTS, SS501, and Paran are heard of, but not many are crazy about them.  Wonder Girls got a good response of being cute, but Tell Me and So Hot are never a hit here.  Among them, Ajoo got the least recognition, so I don’t know where the rumor of his popularity in Thailand comes from.

Aha, I didn’t really think he looked like a girl in the pictures, but as soon as I played the video .. it’s really unsettling how much of a ladyboy he is ): The girl he was stalking seemed cute though.

I just watched the whole video. I like it! The camera sounds at the beginning drew me in and Younha’s voice was a nice touch to the song. He doesn’t sound as girly as before. His new hair is an improvement as well. XD

I don’t know if I wanna bang him or put make-up on his face…
