So BEAST (B2ST)


Okay, I seriously have to admit that I am in love with BEAST. =)

I first saw them on the day they debuted with Bad Girl. Frankly speaking, I do not like the song Bad Girl, even until now. So that's why I do not pay attention to this group at that time.

Then, they promoted the song Mystery. They managed to 'capture my attention' with their neck-twisting dance. [Whenever I try to imitate their neck-twisting part, my brothers think that I am insane. =.=]

After that, they released their second mini album, Shock to the New Era. I find the song Shock addictive. (Singing: Every day I shock Shock Every night I shock Shock......)

At October this year, they released their third mini-album, Mastermind and promote the song Breath (Soom). I love their 'breathe in, breathe out' dance steps.

And now, they are promoting the song Beautiful, which is in their fourth mini-album, Lights Go On Again. I really love this song to the maximum. Because of this song (So Beautiful My Girl Oh Oh Girl!), I am in love with this group. XP


This is the official Music Video of Beautiful.


I always admire and respect groups or singers that can write and produce songs, whether it is composing the melody or writing the lyrics. (Like Jay Chou, Wang Lee Hom, Big Bang, Taylor Swift etc)
I also found out that BEAST can write their own songs too. Their new digital singles, When the Door Closes, Thanks To and Let It Snow were penned by them. Talented yeh!

I also watched BEAST Almighty and Idol Maid. My friend, who is a k-pop addict too, introduced these shows to me. I didn't watch all the episodes though. Hehe... ^^
But thanks to her, I know more about the members' personality offstage.

I followed them since the day they debuted but I only find them 'lovable' recently. Weird, but true.


So, here is a brief description of each members.


Let's start with the leader, Yoon DuJun.

DuJun (DooJoon) was born in July 4, 1989 and is the eldest in the group. He was a trainee in JYP Entertainment. During one of the auditions for JYP Ent, he was in third place. This enabled him to enter a variety show, Hot Blood with other fellow trainees. He was up against Jo Kwon (one of the 2AM members now), a trainee for 7 years in JYP. However, he was eliminated and he later joined his current company, the Cube Entertainment.
He is currently filming MBC's sitcom, All My Love, along with Ga-in of Brown Eyed Girls and Jo Kwon.
He loves to do body gags (weird and funny actions). He loves to play games too. (Guys anyway...) He once lied to his manager that he was going to the convenient store but in the end he went to a nearby cyber cafe to play games. (Tssk, tssk...) Even his tweets are about games. ^^


Now, let's move on to Jang HyunSeung.


HyunSeung is the second eldest in the group. He was born in September 4 1989. He was eliminated from Big Bang in the ninth episode if their documentary.


Next is Yong Jun Hyung.

Jun Hyung was born in December 19 1989. He is the rapper in BEAST. In my opinion, he is a good rapper. But he kind of reminds me of G-Dragon (leader of Big Bang). Maybe it is because of their charisma they shown on-stage.
He was first debuted with the group XING. I don't know what is the reason for the group to disband. But I think he is way better in BEAST. I watched one of the XING's music videos and he hardly had any screen time.
By the way, most of his rapping parts are written by himself. (Talented guy~)
He rapped for HyunA's Change and G.NA's I'll Back Off So You Can Live Better.


Yang Yo Seob, the main vocalist.

Yo Seob was born in January 5 1990. (Oh~ He has the same birthday date as my friend. Just knew it after searching information about him.)
He has great vocals. Due to his baby face, he is always mistaken as the youngest in the group. He loves to act cute too. =)
And I think he is interested in IU. ㅋㅋㅋ (Ke ke ke...)
He has a duet with Dalmation's Drama - First Snow, First Kiss.

Next is Lee Gi Kwang.


Gi Kwang or Ki Kwang (I am also not sure which one) was born in March 30 1990. He debuted as a solo artist with the name AJ before. He promoted the song Dancing Shoes as AJ. Although I am not that interested in abs, I can't deny he has a great body.
He is good in dancing. And he is currently involved in Hot Brothers, a variety show. Anyway, he is funny.


Last but not least, Son Dong Woon, the maknae (youngest member) in the group.


Dong Woon was born in June 6 1991. He was a trainee in JYP Entertainment too. (I really wonder why JYP didn't consider them~ Hmmm...)
He is quite close with Key of SHINee, Nicole of KARA and JinWoon of 2AM. They are the 91-ers.
He has a duet with Davichi's Minkyung - Udon.


- I bet you guys already know that DuJun is my bias in BEAST. Since his description is the longest. Hehe... XD


BEAST really thought me a lesson. When they first debuted, I am quite doubtful with this group as most of the members were eliminated from other companies. But they proved me wrong.
And everytime they brought up this subject, I felt ashamed of myself. Which is why now I will not comment about a group's abilities. =)

I also hope that they get enough rest. Their dark circles under the eyes are so obvious.


All the best! Hwaiting!


* BEAST is coming to Malaysia on January 13th 2011 with 4Minute and G.NA. And I know I have no chance to go. =.=


P.S. Writing this post makes me feel guilty, as if I am betraying SHINee. Haha... Jk, jk... =)
