CL's fashion in this performance is SO CRAZY. I LOVE IT!!! /SCREAM
Here's the video:
CL -- you're so fierce. I love you.
Big Bang is hugely popular in Japan starting last year. Like, insanely popular. I am almost 100% sure that its because Japanese women are preferring more manly men. Arashi? Kat-tun? News? Way too girly. Especially since birth rate is dropping in Japan and many women are staying single longer since they have more education and make more money, leaving their socially awkward men left to marry their NDS's. Stronger men is what they're looking for.
It's interesting how they're so huge in Japan, and one of the main things they have is charisma and individual personalities. I was reading the Japanese comments on youtube for their live performances in Japan, they all say the same thing: "Japan's Idols lose to Big Bang, we don't need them around anymore."
Reasons why?
1) Big Bang is fun, whereas most Japanese idols are more reserved, afraid to show their true personalities
2) Big Bang can dance, having been trained professionally for years
3) Most boy bands in Japan are born from Johnny's Entertainment, and it's widely known that "Johnny" himself is super duper gay. Therefore all the boybands look effeminate, with girly dance moves, hair, and clothes
4) All the "manly" boy bands copy African American hip hop, most just dress like that and have no charisma.
It's been like this for years, no wonder Big Bang can just debut over there and take over the market by storm. This also rings true for the girl bands. Besides the fact that AKB48 is hugely popular (thanks pedo salarymen), 2NE1 is about to debut and probably win over a huge share. I wouldn't be surprised if they get a ton of female fans from Japan, especially since they sing about being stronger women. They're one of the most popular and charismatic girl groups in Korea right now, if not #1.
This big export of KPOP to Japan is so popular and successful that its crazy. Almost more than half of the top acts right now are from Korea. What are you going to do with your talent, Japan? If they were smart, they'd start getting some more realistic artists, instead of the ones that just dress cute, african american, or "rock." The style of their artists are so old and 3 years ago. Which is probably why KPOP basically took over.
