Shin Kyung Kwan from CJ E&M said, “Stevie Wonder is not only famous as a musician, but is loved and respected for being a peacemaker who strives to end racism and bring peace to humanity. He is often chosen as the favorite musician by many pop lovers in the country,” adding, “We almost gave an incentive vacation to the staff who succeeded in casting Stevie Wonder.”
He continued by saying, “Icona Pop’s song is well known for its use in Korean commercials, and it has even ranked in top 10 on Billboard. The band Ylvis is also a famous star on Youtube, being nicknamed ‘another Psy’.”

Date: 2013-11-14 12:08 am (UTC)But Crayon Pop's management, whyyyyyy are you doing so much to trap them in the "one hit wonder" box? No one is going to take them seriously as a group if you keep doing this, and they have other decent songs.
