“SM Town Live 2010 World Tour in LA” had a press conference on September 5th at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Korean reporters , American music site “American Music Channel” and otherswere in attendance. The Interview was with 11 SM Entertainment singers, BoA, former H.O.T member Kangta, DBSK’s Yunho and Changmin, Super Junior’s Leeteuk and Siwon, SNSD’s Sooyoung and Tiffany, SHINee’s Onew and Minho, and TREX[sic] member Jay.




—About their performance at the famous Los Angeles Staples Center

BoA: Ever since I heard about it, I’ve been really excited. It’s the first time we are able to perform together at a place like this, so it makes me all the more happy.

Kangta: When I was performing with my group H.O.T we weren’t given this chance, so I’m happy I get to stand on this wonderful stage with my juniors. I’m nervous and worried, but more than that I’m looking forward to it and am happy I can perform here.




—The fact most in the audience are not Korean-Americans, it seems this has a big significance.

Yunho:
We are able to make our culture widely known. Still, the fact that various people from different countries have an interest (in us), makes me very happy.

Leeteuk: I feel very happy and honored. Since there are fans all over the world cheering for us, from now on I feel like I need to do my best even more.




—How did you feel about meeting the fans at the airport?

Changmin: I honestly wasn’t expecting it.I could even see the crowd of people who came to see us from a distance. Our languages are different. Since they don’t really have a chance to get to know us, I was really surprised, but I was also grateful that they came to welcome us.

Onew: I was concerned and thought to myself, “I wonder what it will be like when we arrive in America”, but (when we arrived) I was happy that so many fans came to see us. I hope they continue cheering for us after this too.




—SNSD has just completed a successful debut in Japan, but do you plan on advancing to America?

Tiffany: I want to do activities in America as well. Personally, I also want to try acting. I have various anticipations for overseas activities. I feel that music is a common language throughout the world.

Siwon: All of us have a dream that, if given the chance, we would like to try advancing to America.

that's a given. i gave an example of an artist who i think is garbage..

a lot of the music TODAY isn't good..too much sex drugs and other nasty stuff. i prefer the oldies anyway..

Took the word out of my mouth. But there r still some awesome songs that impressed me... too bad they're usually overshadowed.

Btw, to add ur list... KE$HA.
I downloaded her album...listened to it n DAMN!! The first time ever I felt like the whole album is garbage. Only 2 songs worth my time. To make things worse, the lyrics mostly were about parties, alcohols, brands of alcohol that I don't even know, boots n those junks that should never be put as lyrics.
Ironically my baby Sica sang Tik Tok with little Jung n they made the song so much better for my bias ears.

holy fuck~ I just searched Nicki Minaj on YT coz I wanted to know who were you talking about... I think I'm going to hit my head over and over against my wall until I open a hole in it. Watched the Super Attack MV, and the only cool thing in that video was the pink Lamborghini.

that's why I find it hilarious when people think kpop is better than american music when so much of kpop today is just american songs sung in korean.

I do love the few kpop songs that don't.
