T-Max looking for another success with God Of Study

After singing a hit-soundtrack for the hit-drama Boys Over Flowers, T-Max will this time take part in the soundtrack of the upcoming drama, God Of Study!

Their track is titled At Least Once (한번쯤은), and it is a modern rock style. Like Boys Over Flowers' Paradise, T-Max's track will be G.O.S' main theme song. Fans have got more reasons to anticipate as the soundtrack producers of the hit-drama You're Beautiful took part in T-Max's track. Composer Kim Jae Yang, who composed Lee Hong Gi's track Still (여전히), composed T-Max's track while Han Sung Ho, who composed Park Shin Hae's Without Words (말도 없이), wrote the song's lyric.

T-Max's agency Planet 905 stated:

The stories of 'Boys Over Flowers,' 'You're Beautiful' and 'God Of Study' are the same as they are all about teens' success, hope and love. They [T-Max] were able to take part in the OST of one of the most anticipated drama, God Of Study. We hope that T-Max's song once again will help out God Of Study's success and popularity.

There have been comparisons that G.O.S's promotion pictures reminded people of Boys Over Flowers'. As people were anticipating to see G.O.S have success like Boys Over Flowers, they now have the same artist for their theme song! With T-Max and You're Beautiful's producers taking part in the track, fans have got lots to anticipate for. Will T-Max have success like they had in Boys Over Flowers?

Stay tuned to the premiere of God Of Study next year, January 4th, to hear T-Max's song!

2AM, T-Max, FT Island, U-Kiss & Mighty Mouth Maknaes Get Their Revenge?

Forget Transformers & Sith Lords, it's the revenge of the maknaes!

On SBS's new variety show program Idol Maknae Rebellion, the youngest members of various popular groups like Jinwoon of 2AM, Yunhwa of T-Max, Seunghyun of F.T. Island, Dongho of U-Kiss and Shorry J of Mighty Mouth will be teaming up to reveal their talents to the world.

Hosted by gagman Yoo Seyoon, Idol Maknae Rebellion gives idol group maknaes the opportunity to step out from the shadow of their group leaders and unleash their talents for the world to see. Furthermore, this variety show also trains its guests in various fields so that they will have skills to show in a variety of programs. For example, the maknaes' first mission was to sing like famous ballad singer Jo Sung Mo. Talk about high expectations!

One of the staff members of this program expressed, "This is the first time that maknaes can receive this type of attention outside of their groups. They clearly put in their full efforts in the filming. Our producers launched Idol Maknae Rebellion with the goal of making these guests the #1 most sought after guests in their future program activities."

Although these boys seem to be buffing up to expand their popularity, I think the kpop scenes loves maknae members already. Regardless, it's great to see love for the male maknaes after all of the new friendships we've seen bloom between girl groups both new and old.



Idol Maknae Rebellion is set to air on November 7 at 10PM KST. With such a unique premise, I'm sure many fans can't help but be excited to see these boys have their own time in the spotlight. Plus, getting to see your favorite idols in army gear definitely scores some brownie points!

Kim Joon is back with T-MAX!

T-MAX will be returning with a concert after 2 long years and luckily for them, with Kim Joon's recent popularity through Boy over flowers, things are looking good!

3 member band T-MAX will be returning on August 28th, 2009 at 7:30PM KST to put on their first Korean concert at the Seoul YoungDeungPo Art Hall. Prior to this concert, the band put on a concert in May in Japan at the Harajuku Astro Hall, called "T-MAX First Live." They even held concerts in Taiwan and Hong Kong, to establish themselves as a "Hallyu band."

T-MAX's label Planet 905 stated:

"Because of T-MAX's overseas activities, there wasn't many opportunities to meet with domestic fans. With this event, we are hoping T-MAX can meet with domestic fans once again. T-MAX will also be preparing a surprise event for this concert, so we hope fans will highly anticipate it."

Who's a T-MAX fan? And if you are, it is just because of Kim Joon's BOF fame?

Kim Joon changed after Boys Over Flowers

According to the T-Max group members, Kim Joon has changed ever since he played Song Woo Bin in the drama Boys Over Flowers. Leader Shin Min Chul revealed "Ever since Kim Joon became an F4 member, he has changed a lot. I can reveal it now. Before he started acting, he would always ask me (the leader) everything, but now he does not give in and is much more confident. He also says "Don't worry. I'm F4." rather comfortably."

Aside from this, the group also talked about the time when they had to introduce themselves as the 'Dancing SG Wannabe'. The group mentioned "When we think about it now, it's really embarrassing. The company president said that we need to make this our motto because at the time, SG Wannabe was a popular, three-member group. We had to introduce ourselves as 'Dancing SG Wannabe' because we weren't particularly good enough at dancing to be called idols." Well, it's good to know that they weren't the ones that though 'Dancing SG Wannabe' was a good saying because then we'd have some problems. But really, I hope the boys are just joking around because it is true that Kim Joon is the reason why they are even noticed nowadays. He basically saved their dying career as semi-idols.
