awkwardlaugh.livejournal.comSimon and Martina of eatyourkimchi.com recently appeared on Star King with Super Junior and f(x), intending to embarrass themselves dance some "sexy, sexy dances." It was a good thing they shot their own footage, because a lot ended up getting cut.
They report, "[T]he whole scenario that we were supposed to do was a message to international fans. f(x) and Super Junior were going to say something for our video, which we would then broadcast on YouTube, which is why they let us bring our camera on stage. Buuuuuut then they cut that part out of the final version. So we decided to put it up here instead! Yeah!"

Three member girl group Piggy Dolls debuted earlier this year with their first song and single "Trend". Not so much their music but their appearance made the public keep an eye on them, seeing that the group consisted of 3 girls that weren't as skinny as all the other girls in the Korean showbiz.
Now, few months after their debut, Piggy Dolls will be returning to the music scene with the release of a new album called "Hakuna Matata". The album will feature the songs from their first single as well as new songs ranging in many different genres such as Reggae, House, Pop Rock, R&b and influences of Club tunes, Trance and Dubstep. Though the title of the album will have people thinking about Disney's "The Lion King" right away, the phrase initially means "There are no Worries" in Swahili.
It's been said that the group's original concept of being "Piggy Dolls" was in fact a real concept just as any other band would come up with a "dark" or "cute" concept for their comeback or debut. The girls of the girl group were apparently forced to eat as much as they could, and gain weight so that they could be marketed as a "fat" girl group. Although they said before that they wouldn't go on a diet just to be able to become more popular, it seems that the girl group did lose weight for their comeback and changed companies for their new release.
Piggy Dolls is scheduled to come back with their new release on July 21st.

2. 아는여자

4. 어제까진
5. 하쿠나 마타타 (Hakuna Matata)

9. Darling
10. 아니잖아
