Her long awaited comeback to the Kpop industry with the release of her 6th album Hurricane Venus and also the celebration of her 10th year anniversary. A great album demonstrating her maturity as an artist. BoA will always be my favourite female artist in Kpop. She's the Queen of Kpop!!
Male Artist: Taeyang
With his smooth and sexy vocals, who doesn't love Taeyang. I Need a Girl wasn't one of my favourite songs from his first studio album Solar, but overall the album is one of my favourites. Looking forward to his comeback with the Big Bang members.
Female Group: Wonder Girls
Even though they weren't that active in Kpop in 2010, the charismatic Wonder Girls will always be my favourite female group. With 4-D Sunmi leaving the group, many thought the Wonder Girls were going down. But they exceeded my expectations in their US debut, I thought it was going to be a complete failure in all honesty. Definitely looking forward to their debut album. Hope it is going to be a success!!
Male Group: TVXQ, DBSK, Tohoshinki
With the heart breaking news of the lawsuit and the split of this wonderfully talented group, TVXQ isn't TVXQ anymore without all its 5 members. But even so, they're still my #1 male group. I hope they stand together as 5 on stage once more.
Rookie Group: Miss A and Sistar
With the influx of Kpop idol groups especially female groups, Miss A and Sistar stand out of the pack in 2010. With great live vocals and fierce dance moves, Miss A and Sistar both shouldn't be compared or rivaled with since they have their own individual styles. Looking forward their 2011 activities!!
Side note: What I'm looking forward to in 2011 for Kpop Artists
- Wonder Girls debut US album. Fans have been patiently waiting for almost a year for Wonder Girls breakthrough into the US market. I hope this album showcases their talents and is not some manufactured mainstream auto-tuned
crapsong that you hear on the radio nowadays - Big Bang's long awaited comeback to the Kpop scene. Since the Big Bang members have been concentrating on their solo careers and Japanese promotions during the past two years, fans have been patiently waiting for their Korean comeback. Hope their album is a huge success and is not some album that is only promoted for a month (that's the tend nowadays with Kpop)
- BoA's US film debut. She's got some sick dance moves!!
- Reconciliation between SM Entertainment and JYJ
- SNSD's Japanese promotions. Let's hope they release an original Japanese song not their Korean songs but in Japanese
- More understanding between Kpop artists and their agencies
- Brown Eyed Girl's comeback. Let's hope its a ballad, but I doubt it. I loved their 1st and 2nd albums
- More Kpop artists coming to Australia
That's all I can think of so far...
