What do K-pop stars think of 2009?

A lot of things happened this year in the world of K-pop. Some of them good, some of them bad, some of them ugly with 100% purity. Korea's Star News decided to interview some of our favorite K-pop stars to find out what they think about the year 2009. They sadly did not interview any celebrities that fall in the category of the bad and the ugly, but hey, good is the best, right? Narsha of Brown Eyed Girls, who have again proved that they know how to shake it with Abracadabra and Sign, said:

"This is the year that BEG got upgraded. We got busier as we gained popularity but it was really fun. We also got the Female Group of the Year award for the first time since our debut. It was the most meaningful year for BEG"

"2009 was the year that our wishes were granted. Not only did Gee and Say Your Wish(Genie) receive positive reactions, we also managed our first solo concert and Asian tour."

"It was the first year that we actually got an award, our efforts paid off this year. We gained a lot of fame overseas as well and I'm happy about that. We also started on individual projects. It was nice to get an opportunity to spread our names."

"We learned about the preciousness of our team members as we did a lot of solo projects during the first half of the year. We also developed musically. It was all good except for the fact that we did not get to perform as 5 for a lot."

"2009 was the year of us. With Juliette and Ring Ding Dong, we matured internally and externally. We also got to become closer to our fans and communicate through music."

"It was the year of new opportunity and amazing luck. We finally became artists. We began a new journey."
