	Korean hip hop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some suggest that Korean hip hop music firmly stands as the respectable and socially-conscious antithesis to an often superficial and confused pop genre that pervades the Korean music industry.
		Famous mainstream Korean hip hop artists often resemble RandB or pop music with artists mimicking the vocal (and dance) styles of rap acts from the United States.
		Korean American hip hop began in the United States in the mid 1990s, mainly attributed to the efforts of the Korean rapper Tiger JK and DJ Shine and the Korean American hip hop group Drunken Tiger.

	Korea's hip makeover changes face of Asia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		And as notions of Korean beauty become popularized by the country's exploding cultural exports, women from around the region -- and some men, too -- are flocking to Seoul to have their faces remodeled.
		Koreans, related to the Mongols who once ruled the Central Asian steppes, tend to have more prominent noses and, often, lighter skin than other Asians, the country's plastic surgeons say.
		In physical terms, the Korean ideal is a relatively small, oval face with a high-bridged nose and large eyes with Western-style eyelids.

	Hip hop music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hip hop music is a style of music which came into existence in the United States during the mid-1970s, and became a large part of modern pop culture during the 1980s.
		Hip hop arose during the 1970s at block parties in New York City, at which the DJs began isolating the percussion breaks to hit funk, soul, RandB and disco songs.

	NEWCITYCHICAGO.COM: Street Smart Chicago
		Up until around 1989, it really sucked to be a Korean music fan, as the government maintained strict censorship and even went so far as to ban nearly all live musical performances (because, as you know, rock concerts lead inevitably to rioting, drug use, and all sorts of weird, subversive behavior).
		Korean popular music comes in three main flavors: R&B-infused teen pop, hip-hop, and completely insane, freestyle club music (yes, there's Korean rock 'n' roll, but it's generally nothing to write home about).
		Korean hip-hop, meanwhile, has its share of sucka MCs, but also boasts standouts like MC Sniper and the Korean-American duo Drunken Tiger, both of whom could mop the floor with `Lil Flip or 50 Cent in a battle (for a good recent compilation, check out "HipHop In Da Mú:D").

	EM magazine ::Vol. 0I Issue 006 ::Emcee JGiM
		Koreans have never stepped through, but the practically all-English albums of Drunken Tiger and Jinusean are causing quite a stir in Korean pop music.
		Korean hip-pop though is a little strange to me. When people in America hear that shit they just laugh their asses off.
		Not really so much anymore--Drunken tiger sounds more like hip hop, even the English involved--but with DJ Doc and these other groups where the beat is so incredibly hard for the first half of the song, but half way through it turns into a happy pop or dance song...

		They were created by SM Entertainment, known widely as the powerhouse for some of the most popular Korean groups.
		H.O.T. has been known as one of the first groups to perform Korean music as we know it today, revolutionizing and culturing a mix of rap, hip-hop, randb, ballad, and pop.
		Not to be discouraged, the fivesome quickly recharged with "Candy" on December 1st, 1996, the hip, cute song that made a stamp on the Gayo music timeline.

	A rising Korean wave: If Seoul sells it, China craves it - Asia - Pacific - International Herald Tribune
		As part of what the Chinese call the Korean Wave of pop culture, a television drama about a royal cook, "The Jewel in the Palace," is garnering record ratings throughout Asia, and Rain, a 23-year-old singer from Seoul, drew more than 40,000 fans to a sold-out concert at a sports stadium in Beijing in October.
		South Korean movies and dramas about urban professionals in Seoul, though not overtly political, present images of modern lives centering on individual happiness and sophisticated consumerism.
		Its roots are traceable to democratization, which kicked off with the South Korean elections in 1987, and the Seoul Olympics in 1988.

		im sure quite a few korean americans might be able to relate to me in some sense, but so far i havent run into anyone that spends their free time reading weblogs and personal opinions about korean media and politics.
		in america, the only big names in korean hip hop are the likes of drunken tiger and some gay shit like 1tym and stuff, which is just sad.
		in korea, the hip hop fanbase is so small, and whether it's because of the lack of promotion or lack of interest from the general public, it just doesn't take off.

		Korean hip-hop sounds nothing like American, or in your words, "fl" hip-hop, because Korean hip-hop is good.
		Another good hip hop group is CB Mass, they are really good, especially the song 5 movement 3.

		Through this album, I think that they are coming back to take their place as the reigning ruler of Korean hip-hop.

		We want listeners to nod their heads because they enjoy the beats, but at the same time because they are feeling our message.
		Because pop music has become the norm -- the lowest common denominator of Korean culture -- most listeners are indifferent to issues beyond love, parties and fun, fun, fun.
