JYP Entertainment in association with Nick Cannon’s company N’credible, just finalized their network agreement last week, to air through TV station Teen Nick. The show is slated to air in the first quarter of 2012 and will consist of a total of over 6 episodes. Filming for the tv movie will begin in October.
This will be the first time for Asian artists to have a tv movie series airing in the US, so both fans and producers are in high anticipation.
JYP Entertainment told allkpop, “Wonder Girls’ US debut album will be released in timing with the movie, as its OST album.”

Date: 2011-08-21 03:31 am (UTC)I don't care if they don't do the variety show route.
I just want to see them performing and doing fun interviews/talk shows for a while :/
But I will try nd watch this Nickelodeon show even tho I have little hope that it will be amazing.
Just hoping it won't be cringe worthy because these girls are so hardworking :D
LOL at "a total of over 6 episodes"

Date: 2011-08-21 03:46 am (UTC)And I was wondering about that too. I'd think a lot of fans would have lost interest. (I have, i like them still but it's kinda like w/e.) I wonder how they'd have done up against groups now if they were stedily promoting there. I wonder how long SNSD vs WG fan wars would have gone on if they stayed? Would there be less nugu girl groups? idk

Date: 2011-08-21 04:07 am (UTC)i love the fact that he is aware that the fame in america won't happen out of nowhere because they were huge in korea and in fact entered the american market with a true rookie mentality, working from the bottom and not being ashamed of it because they are big shots in korea or simply walking away when it didn’t work. and it actually paid of. to some people this deals is ridiculous and doesn't mean much, but to me this is huge. it will give them exposure to the demographic group that they'll firstly cater, because let’s be real, it's tweens and teens that girl and boy groups appeal the most and then slowly an older fan base appears.
all the moves they are doping seem incredible smart to me, you go jyp coco and i'm proud and happy for you girls.

Date: 2011-08-21 04:17 am (UTC)People really can't see the forest for the trees, it seems. Probably no where else but K-pop (and to a lesser extent, J-pop) can a brand new music act debut and already have an established fan base, commercial deals and of course, live broadcasts 4 times a week on national television. WG are just slumming it out like 95% of successful US artists, and 2 years as unknowns = just a drop in the bucket compared to what others have to struggle through.
The only bone I really have to pick with JYP is how he didn't utilize the momentum WG had after the Jonas tour to release the album then (seriously, they actually gained quite a few new fans from those concerts). Then I think about how Sunmi left and that made recording/finalizing things that much harder, and how time had to be allocated to introduce Lim to the fans. So really, even I can understand that delay.

Date: 2011-08-21 04:24 am (UTC)And even if it's bad, 's all good. I'll just have a 'bad K-pop movie' night and watch it back-to-back with Jay's Hype Nation ahaha.
