Sistar Corner: Top Hit Songs Since Debut!




Did you like the latest song from South Korea's current “it” girl group, Sistar? The latest song titled “Loving U” showcased the member's individual charismatic appeals while dancing to the beat of this summer dance track. If you will watch their music video again, you will get the feeling of the sexy but still approachable girl-next-door image they're trying to project while singing the lyrics. Indeed, it's the perfect summer song for me, you, and all of us!

Sistar is consisted of four female beauties who made their debut 2 years ago through the single “Push Push” and managed under Starship Entertainment. The members are: Hyorin, the talented and charismatic leader of the group, Bora giving off a sweet and lovely image as a rapper, Soyu lending her powerful vocals and nice personality, and Dasom, the adorable maknae or youngest of the group with a super sweet voice.


With just 9 singles and 1 album released, the girls are already earning much needed attention and love from people of all ages. And that includes the soldiers serving their military service for the country, Sistar is the most requested girl group to perform in their barracks. But I don't blame them that even students find it hard to finish their term papers once listening to the tune of So Cool, How Dare You, Alone, and a lot more.






Among all the girl groups performing on-stage, Sistar stands out the best for their noticeable talent and stage presence. And including the aesthetics part, SIstar blossoms every time they perform!

WGM WooJung Couple's Divorce??


One of the most-loved and often controversial reality variety show in South Korea, We Got Married bids goodbye to yet another popular couple (WooJung).


This South Korean reality variety show rose to fame when it started pairing up Korean celebrities and show what it would be like if they were really married. The show give tasks to the couple every week that they must complete. Viewers like the show because it was originally all about no pretensions and even manages to show the not-so-adorable or real sides of the celebrities.

Some of the well-loved couples born out of the reality show includes:

Khuntoria Couple (Nickhun of 2pm and Victoria of f(x)


Adam Couple (Jo Kwon of 2am and Gain of B.E.G.)



Lettuce Couple (Kim Hyun Joong and Hwangbo)


and WooJung Couple (Jang Woo and Eunjung of T-ara)

In the recent season of WGM, there are only two couples left Leeteuk of Super Junior and Kang Sora and the WooJung couple. However, this season is clouded with controversy as the popular WooJung couple bids goodbye to a year and several months of “married life.”


Though the producers are saying get quote on this that it's not because of the T-ara controversy (remember the noise made by Hwayoung's departure from the group and bullying factors), viewers were still in shock that the lovely couple had to say their goodbyes.
