JYJ, Super Junior and HyunA Gets Mentioned by Chicago Sun-Times

Chicago Sun-Times mentions JYJ, Super Junior and HyunA in a special column. The column written by music critic Thomas Canner mentioned the three K-Pop artists as part of a concert and album preview for 2012.

In his column he wrote, “Expect to hear more K-pop (from Korea), a geographical genre that just launched its own festival (K-Pop Word, Dec. 7 in Seoul). Kanye West previously worked with the trio JYJ (rapping on the single “Ayyy Girl”) and has said he plans to do more with the group. South Korea’s Super Junior, allegedly the largest boy band in the world at 13 members, is expected to tour more widely. Also, “Bubble Pop,” a bubblegum hit from South Korean idol Kim Hyun-a, scored No. 9 on Spin magazine’s list of the best singles from 2011.”

The fact that not only K-pop and the groups have been mentioned has its own significance and reflection of K-Pop gaining respect from around the world.
