2009 MBC Gayo Daejun: My Top 10


You know you have too many award shows when the last award show is a rehash of every music show throughout the year with a few special performances mixed in to make it a little interesting. That is exactly what the MBC Gayo Daejun unfortunately did.

It was really hard to find ten performances I actually liked that were different from what they normally did on the music shows, but I think I came up with a pretty good list.

Top Ten
1. After School & SDB-When I Grow Up: Gahee and Bekah are my 2 fav members now!
2. 2PM & SNSD Stage: Very cute stage
3. SG Wannabe & MIJI: Oh their voices were amazing!
4. Baek Ji Young & Lee Seung Gi-My Ear Candy: I was shocked by this and I love LSG More after this performance (not that I didn't like him before).
5. Brown Eyed Girls Stage
6. 2PM Stage: I wish I loved this one more, but the other two were so much better
7. SNSD Stage
8. SHINee Stage: LOVE this remix of RDD; love Kara's dresses
9. Kara Stage: I hope the one cheerleader is ok, it looked like she hit her head hard!
10. Davichi-8282

Honorable Mentions
F(X)-La Cha Ta: love the remix ver.!
MC Mong-Indian Boy
Kim Tae Woo & SNSD’s Seohyun-Love Rain

KBS Gayo Daejun: My Top 10


Being monkey-in-the-middle between two rival channels with massive lineups is not a fun position to be in. Fortunately, it didn’t affect KBS’s Gayo Daejun at all. In my opinion, KBS’ show was my favorite of the three festivals. It didn’t have a huge building that looked like an airport hanger or huge set pieces that looked like they were from a movie, but everything seemed to flow better and didn’t seem so rushed.

Also, The variety of the performances were better, in my opinion, with idols sharing the stage with legends and many different genres of music were represented instead of it just being one big idol show (not that I mind, but sometimes you need a little variety in your life).

Here is my top 10 and honorable mentions. Again this was incredibly hard to choose everyone was so good.

Top 10
1. 2PM Stage: They've been suprising me with every stage and I love "Tired of Waiting"
2. IRIS OST Recap: KTW, BJY & SSH together at the end was just amazing
3. 2NE1-Fire: Even with a basic stage they can totally rock the house. And how can you not like this song!
4. KTW, Jonghyun & Kim Jung Mo-Beat It:
5. 1N2D Stage
6. SSH & 2PM Special Stage: They were so adorable here when they were fainting over SSH *lol*
7. 2NE1 & Lee Seung Chul
8. SNSD, BEG & Davichi-I’ll Be There: Their voices together sound amazing!
9. MC Mong- Horror Show: Loved the performance and if you haven't watched the video, do it. It's hillarious!
10. Leessang Stage

K.Will, Onew, Yesung & Kara-Heal The World

2009 SBS Gayo Daejun: My Top 10




First out of the gate, SBS Gayo Daejun is shaping up to be the big festival of the year with literally EVERYONE in Kpop set to attend.

From hot hip-hop performances to cool singers giving it their all, cute girl groups to even cuter boy bands, epic drama parodies to the glorious return of Heesica, the SBS Gayo Daejun has something for every fan.

Here is my top ten of the best performances of the night. This was extremely hard for me to choose because everyone did so well this year. Do you agree with me?


1. 2PM Stage: everything about this performance was top notch. They really stepped it up and I was especially impressed with the acrobatics. I was not to fond of "Heartbeat" when I first heard it, but now I may have to go back and give it a second look.



2. Super Junior Stage: masks aside (can we please retire the masks in 2010), their performance was electric. They had everyone in the place dancing, and OMG Yesung's voice was HOT! In my opinion, "Sorry, Sorry" was the best song of 2009. I mean how can you not get up and dance to that song!



3. Kim Tae Woo, Junsu, Jonghyun & K.Will Special Stage: Their voices individually and together were amazing. Every time I hear "Bump & Grind" I always think back to the movie "Without A Paddle" (watch it, it's hillarious!), and I can't help but laugh when I hear this song. But Junsu TOTALLY made me love this song again.



4. CL & GD-The Leaders: How hot was that performance! though GD NEEDS to grow his hair back. Not really liking the "Moe from the 3 stooges" look. The only thing I wish was that Teddy was there.



5. SNSD Stage: Great performance, very energetic. Love the set for "Gee" and I LOVE the PJ's they look so comfortable!



6. CL-Heartbreaker: CL totally gave GD a run for his money with her version of "Heartbreaker". Would've totally pwned if she did the dance in those heels, but none-the-less, an awesome performace from "The One and Only Baddest Female".



7. GD & Taeyang-Lies & Korean Dream: How adorable were they as kids! and the mini GD & Taeyang were a nice touch. The performance was great and it's so nice to see them still friends after 10 years.



8. Brown Eyed Girls ft. 2AM-Sign (Remix): I LOVE the remix and their voices were amazing. Great Performance from an awesome group!



9. 2AM, 2PM & Beast-Sign: Jo Kwon as Ga In. One word, EPIC! out of this set of performances, they were the best!



10. Davichi & 2AM Stage: Both group's voices were all on point and I love both songs.


Honorable Mentions: (in no order)


-4Minute, Kara & After School-Heartbeat: awesome performance!
-SJ, SHINee & MBLAQ-Muzik: Key and Joon looked hot, loved Shindong's wig and I absolutely LOVE Mir in pigtails *lol*
-Bom & Taeyang-You & I: They really need to put this version on either one of their albums!
-MBLAQ & Beast Dance Battle: Joon looked hot ripping his shirt, but Seungho totally pwned with the flips!
-2PM-Bo Peep Bo Peep: Made this song 50 times better IMO
-SHINee & SJ-Gee: HEESICA
!! *LOL*
-2PM & Beast-Mister: the "butt dance" was fantastic!
