Thanks a lot for doing this great blog. I’m a Chinese, I really hope that more people get to know Chinese popular music. I like Chinese boy band MIC, each of them has a superior strength singing and the dance strength. So I want to recommend their songs and live performance which can be found on youtube. ~^0^~Wish u the best!

This seems to be the exact situation I’m in. I’m tired of the negative views on China. People always accuse China of having fake propaganda, but the way I see it, America is no better.

I can’t wait for China to rise not only economically but also in it’s entertainment industry. When the annoying as hell k-pop dies out (hopefully soon), maybe cpop will have it’s time of glory haha (hopefully not as annoying).

Thank you for making this site & I hope it will last a very very long time. I always come here for news on my baby Wei Chen <3 LOL. Jia you!!

I’ve been lurking this site for quite a while now, so this post is extremely overdue (which is why it’s so long). I just want to thank you guys for this site. I am Chinese, born in China but spent my whole life in the USA and Canada. To this day, when someone asks “Where are you from?”, I instinctively say “China”– despite the fact that I’ve spent 1/17 years there. I’ve always been proud of being Chinese but, at times, it seems that no one else shares this pride and that my feelings of patriotism are something that I have to stifle. Looking around as a kid, the only source of information I had on China and its culture was the Western media; articles from places like Time Magazine completely skewed my perception of the nation I had always been so eager to call home. It almost seems like there’s anti-Chinese propaganda EVERYWHERE (particularly concerning Tibet and pre-Olympics); “news”, internet, people around me. It hurts and angers me that some people can be so ignorant. And that’s why I love this site so much. I feel it is very informative and appreciate the deep and knowledgable discussions that take place (RE: Idol Girls, Meteor Shower). I think what sets you guys apart from other music/entertainment blogs (and what I like the most) is that there is thought and truth behind your posts– it’s not just mindless bashing of culture you don’t understand (as at allkpop etc.)

Oh okay.. just wanted to make sure cause some people look at it and make assumptions…like thinking its always been run by idol groups and that it only has pop/hiphop

they dont realize that just two years ago singing groups like sgwanabe won main prizes and how groups like leessang are still successful

I know quite a bit – I think Kpop’s pretty fascinating and easy to follow because like Chinese entertainment, it’s developing. It hasn’t settled down. There’s a rawness and progression there that you don’t see with Japanese and American music.

So the industry like the Chinese music industry is interesting because it’s evolving. There’s plenty of potential there, potential that I was captivated by back in mid-2000sish. But I’ve been disappointed with the direction it turned in the past five years or so I don’t follow it so much.

Now I kind it follow it because the Kpop companies really go after the Chinese market so it’s impossible to avoid, and I like to catch up on some singers that I liked before.

I like this blog… I’m interested in Chinese entertainment too but am too lazy to go read Chinese websites (which are sometimes inaccurate and require reading Chinese chars) and I look for general coverage instead of information on specific artists, so this blog’s awesome for my desires.
