walk down memory lane I
I've been following SM artists since the beginning. Over Thanksgiving weekend I watched some old videos. Now I feel compelled to post a brief history of SMP.
IN THE BEGINNING: HOT
Warrior Descendants '96
We Are the Future '97
(Moon Hee-Jun begins to develop his unique dance style and stage fashion)
Line Up! '98
-
walk down memory lane II
HOT is established as the leader of kpop...
Enter Shinhwa
more SMP
Resolver '98
and so SMP continues... excessive use of exclamations
Yah! '99
Yo! '99
Outside Castle '00
(Moon Hee-Jun= genius)
All Your Dreams '00

walk down memory lane III
Intermission: the LOST YEARS
fans mourn the loss of HOT who succumb to a merciless SM
a beautiful magical era meets a premature end...
Kangta's voice never sounds as sweet. Moon Hee-Jun's style never has the same DGAF flair.
They become solo artists.
JTL is formed.
the SMP continues ... more title exclamations
but looses its kimchi flavor ( Read more... ) -
walk down memory lane IV
Generational shift: HOT/Shinhwa passing the baton off to TVXQ
HOT fans shake their heads when Tri-angle is released. (TVXQ can not pretend to be HOT)
an awkward fusion of TVXQ, BoA, TRAX. SMP with the most dissonance. what was Yoo Young-jin thinking?
Tri-angle '04
Rising Sun '05
(TVXQ finds its own voice) SMP back on track.
"O" -Jung ( Read more... ) -
what has happened to TRAX ???
The only thing that's the same is the name.
This is unacceptable. ~poor jay~
