It figures that perhaps the most painfully arrogant and embarrassingly delusional piece on the Hallyu Wave was written by an Asian American (probably) on a site sponsored by the Korean government…
…and boy is it a doozy.

“HOW DID THE STUPID AMERICANS NOT SEE THE HALLYU WAVE COMING?! SILLY AMERICANS ARE SO DUMB AND ARROGANT! HAR HAR HAR! REFUSING TO MAINSTREAM SONGS IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE FROM A COUNTRY WITH COMPLETELY DIFFERENT POP CULTURE TRENDS! SO SILLY!“


Uh, because nobody in the mainstream media takes the fucking Jonas Brothers seriously?
Think about that. They have a goddamn Grammy Award and have sold like 8 million records and they are still treated as a pop culture punchline by the mainstream media. Yet you want America to pump up their opening act? Really?

Okay, wow.
Take a step back and let what you just read sink in and I can break it down for you.

1) American publications are not with the times because they didn’t pick up the K-pop trend earlier.
2) The only reason K-pop is not a mainstream success is because these idiot fans have yet to figure out what’s best for them.
3) Lady Gaga? Katy Perry? Rihanna? FUCK THEM. They all need to adjust to the Hallyu Wave.

Humble shit, as always.

In what is hilarious timing in relation to the KOCCA article you just read, the Korean media is currently busy flipping out over JYJ‘s Yoochun being sighted in the same video as Ashley Tisdale and Gabe Saporta.
JYJ‘s Yoochun was recently spotted hanging out at the Roosevelt in Hollywood alongside Ashley Tisdale and Gabe Saporta.
1) Who in the fuck is Gabe Saporta?
2) Ashley Tisdale is like a D-lister in America, that inferior pop culture across the Pacific from Korea, yet for whatever reason is still about 5000 times as relevant here as every K-pop act combined.
Remember, KOCCA says the Hallyu Wave is superior to everything, but they are busy judging their own artists by whether they can be in the background of a video recording of some shitty generic blonde teenybopper actress/singer outside of a hotel.
Aim high.

Gabe Saporta is the lead singer from Cobra Starship.
I just realized I’ve been calling him Gabe Sparta… I’m going to keep calling him that anyway.
wtf
Cobra Starship
http://youtu.be/HpyZEzrDf4c
Apparently they are popular and I have never heard of him before.
where did you get that ugh image lol
Magic.
Ashley Tisdale is not even D-List. She’s like Z-List by now. She hasn’t done anything remotely relevant or noteworthy in ages. (I would know, I used to be obsessed with her & High School Musical).
I thought D-list was the lowest?
Do regular Koreans really believe that Kpop will be big in the US?
Some fangirls think that once 2ne1 debuts in the US they will be huge, just because they are working with Will.I.Douche.
Would like to know what Koreans think?
The rational ones or the people who believe in government fed shit?
Remember, allkpop and Soompi only translate articles from Korean media.
:o
So this was/is news? breathing the same air as celebs o.o
Yes.
Aww I love Gabe Saporta :(
This article is pure genius. I laughed all the way through. And I dont know who Gabe Saporta is. And Yoochun was more so passing by in that video. Oh korean media you make me laugh.
I can’t get over the fact that they are proud he is in a video with fucking Ashley Tisdale.
Oh yeah who the heck is kocca?
