These are the best performances of Twinkle this far, in my opinion. I picked two of the ones where they have hand-held microphones. The vocals are more important to me than the dancing and the mics aren’t that much in the way of the choreography anyway.
Despite my aversion to anything with leopard print, I really like Seo-hyun’s outfit here:
I love Tae-yeon’s outfit in this one:
TaeTiSeo’s first live performance was at M!Countdown the day before yesterday. They performed Twinkle and Baby Steps. I really like Baby Steps and I’m glad they decided to promote it along with Twinkle.
Baby Steps was originally sung by the American boyband Varsity Fanclub. SM acquired the rights for the song and made a Korean version for TaeTiSeo, which (in my completely unbiased opinion) blows the original out of the water.
According to the message included with the digital album, this is Seo-hyun’s favourite song on the album. I realize that the top picks is probably a marketing thing, but I could see this being her favourite (even though Tae-yeon owns the stage).
Missing you like crazy (미치게 보고 싶은) is the theme song for Ha Ji-won’s character in the drama series The King 2 Hearts, which is currently airing in Korea. The musical director specifically asked for Tae-yeon to sing the song after working with her previously on Beethoven Virus. After having the song topping the charts, Tae-yeon was given the opportunity to perform a special stage at yesterday’s Music Core.

One thing I love about Tae-yeon is how her voice conveys emotion. Her stage presence is also great. I love her stage outfit here, btw.
I haven’t seen The King 2 Hearts yet, but it’s on my “to watch” list.
I saw this clip from SBS K-Pop Star earlier today. It’s a special collaboration stage where one of the three finalists, Baek A-yeon, is joined by Tae-yeon and Tiffany from SNSD in a performance of Lady Marmalade.

It must be discouraging to perform together with Tae-yeon like this 
. I don’t follow the show, so I don’t know how A-yeon has performed in the past, but it’s hard to shine next to Tae-yeon 
.
And yes, that’s BoA you see glance by as one of the judges . She’s representing SM Entertainment in the show.
Today is Kim Tae-yeon’s 23rd birthday. I thought I’d celebrate by wearing my “309″ Tae-yeon beanie today, but I wear that every day so I’m making a Tae-yeon related post too .
Let’s start with her awesome Devil’s Cry (intro to Run Devil Run) performance from SNSD’s Japan tour DVD (long overdue):
Tae-yeon is my favourite K-Pop artist. On so many levels — she has it all. I’ve seen her (and the rest of SNSD ) three times so far. […] there’s more! »
Star-seeking child (별을 찾는 아이) is a very nice ballad from IU’s latest Korean album (track 3). Here performed at SBS Inkigayo together with Kim Gwang-jin.
A couple of “classic” live performances by T-ara for the people who aren’t seeing them at Music Bank in Paris tomorrow .
Watching these lives solidifies So-yeon and Eun-jung as my top 2 favourite members. To be fair, all members aren’t present here, since this is the collaboration they with Supernova, but still… So-yeon ♥
This is YUI’s acoustic performance of Green a.live at Bokura no ongaku back in the beginning of November.
I really like this song. Here it’s arranged differently. It’s a bit more elaborate than the studio version. Bordering too elaborate, since I like the simplicity of the song. But still very good.
Time to fill a request by Chewi, which is also a request by myself :3. It’s T-ara’s Lovey-Dovey. I like the song, although not as much as I had expected to. I’m liking it more and more as I watch the lives.
This song is included (duh) on their latest mini-album Funky Town. At first I got the impression that they were going to release a part 1 and part 2 of the album, but it turns out that it was just the music videos (the long ones for Cry Cry and Lovey-Dovey). Funky Town is a repackaged version of Black Eyes, so it has all the songs. I didn’t pull the trigger on Black Eyes, so I’ll just go ahead and get Funky Town instead.
I like Ji-yoon’s, I mean Hwa-young’s hair .
Does anyone know the fan-chant?
I love it when YUI does her occasional cover, because she usually picks interesting songs. This song is called Tsubasa wo kudasai (翼をください) and was originally performed by the folk song group Akai Tori back in 1971.
You can really hear the 70’s carry through. It has a nice feeling to it.
mrdeus: Yeah, she bumped TaeTiSeo from #1 on the online charts too.
Spider: IU is currently #1 on Korea’s Billboard top 100! God,...
