Good evening to all the viewers. Tonight on our show, Pun Pogodak, we're having a special - K-pop!
I think there isn't a person in this world who hasn't heard of PSY and his hit Gangnam Style... let's check it out.
PSY has opened up the way for S. Korean artists into the American market. The demand is constantly growing.
Next up - 2NE1. They have sold 27 million digital downloads and have 400 million views on YouTube.
The New York Times declared their concert in New Jersey as one of the best in 2012. Let's listen to I Am The Best.
From the same record company as 2NE1, next up are the winners of ''Best World Act'' at the 2011 MTV EMAs.
At the beginning of 2013, they finished their successful world tour. Here are BIGBANG with Fantastic Baby.
She is one of the most successful Asian artists with almost 10 million sold albums.
In 2008, she took on the American market and produced an English album with famous names from the American music industry.
Lately, she has been returning to her roots and popularity in Asia.
Let's check out her collaboration with Sean Garrett in the song I Did It For Love... here's BoA.
Next up, a girl group with 8 members! Unusual for us, but almost a rule in Asia.
They're specific, because they all have an equal position in the group and in every new promotion cycle, a different member gets the spotlight.
That way, they can all grow and evolve equally.
Roly Poly is their hit with a contagious dance choreography, which many have covered on YouTube. Here's T-ara.
Dear viewers, now we have a boy band whose popularity has been growing non-stop in the last 3 years.
The most successful Asian tv station even engaged them for their New Year's spectacle.
Another ultra K-pop hit, SHINee with Dream Girl.
Wonder Girls are another K-pop sensation who are trying to conquer the American music scene.
They even collaborated with the popular artist Akon in the MV that we'll see next.
Sadly, there are rumors that the group might be breaking up, so their dream of conquering the American market may never come true..
Still, let's listen to their hit, Like Money.
As you might have noticed, S. Korean groups always have unusual and interesting names. Next up are MFBTY.
They're called Korean hip-hop royalty and always surprise with a fantastic production.
Let's enjoy this great music video which will also be the last one for tonight.
Dear viewers, this has been this week's last Pun Pogodak. See you already on Monday, 18:30, on Kanal-Ri. Enjoy the weekend!
