JYP is known in the Korean music industry as a singer, songwriter, dancer, actor, record producer, CEO, and founder of JYP Entertainment, and now, to add to the already long list, a headphone designer.
On Friday the 8th, JYP will launch his domestic brand of "Diamond Tears" headphones. On June 4th, JYP joined up with the American headphone giant, Monster, to release his own line of headphones. JYP has personally designed the headphones and Monster will be releasing them. The "Diamond Tears" headphones are the same ones that JYP was wearing when he participated as one of the judges on the SBS show, "K-Pop Star."
When asked why he had created these headphones, JYP was quoted saying, "Normally headphones are designed in the hip hop style, but these are different. The 'Diamond Tears' go well with pretty much anything."
To celebrate the headphones, a launch party was held on Friday the 1st. Many celebrity groups such as 2PM, 2AM, miss A, Wonder Girls, Ga-in, Min Hyo-rin, and even Noel Lee, the founder of Monster, arrived to support JYP. Of the groups that attended, 2PM, Wonder Girls, 2AM, and miss A all posed wearing pairs of the "Diamond Tears" headphones. 







they're pretty cool looking ngl

they're going to be like beats headphones if that means anything to you since they're made by the same company

Thanks for the info. I think I'll stick to pining after SOUL headphones. I've heard they're much better sound quality wise.

I'm actually very impressed with the design. So, no wire attached with the headphone? :3 I'm actually looking for a wireless one.

I was kinda 'eh' when I first saw these way back when 'cause I'm not a huge fan of headphones, but hot damn ear buds? yes please.

Mte, i wouldn't buy headphones from them. It's so expensive but people are buying it bcos of the brand name.

IDK I got mines as a gift... my BF deciphered my internet lusting as actual want. I'd spend hours colorizing them (I'm a digital hoarder)

They do a great job at being good headphones. I'm no audiophile so previously my headphones were max price 5 bucks or so. So the improvement is a given and the sound quality as far as I know is great.

They look tacky tbh and I bet they'll break/fall apart about as easy as Beats headphones do.

Oh good, I thought I was the only one who took a look and found them effing ugly.

Isn't this old news? I read the exact same article on allkpop months ago. Also Wonder Girls, JB and JYP they all have been whoring those headphones everywhere. They actually don't look as pretty as in the pictures.
JB, as I said wore them all the time on DH2 and they didn't seem much.

i'm thinking of saving up (for a very long time, why are they so expensieve ;~;) and buying the super kawaii in ear headphones, does anyone know what the quality is like for monster/the kawaii ones and if they would last long?

Honestly, I think they aren't worth the money. I work at an electronics store and they sell really well, but I get customers everyday asking about replacement wires or how they can go about getting something on them fixed because they'd gotten broken. The in ear ones are a little more sturdy, but you're still looking at over 100 USD for a pair.

Also the "Diamond Tear" He wore when he promoted "No Love, No More" priceless.

They are very pretty but TBH I doubt if they'll sell as well as beats. the whole reason beats sold is because just about the entire music and sports industry was in them. I doubt if JYP and/or monster cable have the same celebrity connections as Dr. Dre, those celebs are the whole reason perfectly sane people started buying $300 headphones and $99 earbuds.

The earbuds yes please, but for the overheads I'll stick to my lovely £50 Urbanears, thanks. ^^
