Hello
An nyoung

Ni hao
I'm late, I'm late for a very important date! That's right I'm late posting my latest edition of K-pop monday, last week I told you this week would be telling you about their first ENGLISH song, even though I love this song I do prefer the Korean lyrics to the English Lyrics as the English lyrics are stating that they are the ones that brings the boys out where in the Korean lyrics they sing that no matter how you look you bring the boys out.
2011 saw the release of the girls 3rd full length album and their first branch out into English speaking parts of the world with The Boys! The album was released as a Korean version and English version. They mainly promoted in America as I've noticed K-pop is mostly well known in America, for most of the girls it was a dream come true and for Tiffany and Jessica it was something I'm sure they never thought would come, they got to go home and promote their music. Sadly the international release didn't do as well as the Korean release. There is also a Japanese version of The Boys but that one's for another day (japanese albums next)
