As you can tell, BEAST is 'Tojong idols'.
That means that compared to other idol groups, they are purely made up of Koreans.
That could make either a positive or a negative effect on BEAST's promotions overseas.
Right now, K-POP is the trend everywhere.
The videos of our kpop idols can be streamed on Youtube all over the world, except African countries.
During the first year of BEAST's debut, they held their showcase at Odiva, Japan. The cheering that the Japanese fans sent them was amazing.
Apparently, after Michael Jackson, has never happened before in Japan.
As BEAST traveled by helicopters to and from the airport to the concert hall, the B2UTIES made 'B2ST' with human letters. That scene was amazing, and it almost made me cry a bit.
With all this anticipation from their fans, BEAST travled to the Phillipines, Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand, China, Japan, and many other Asian countries.
There is a saying that in 2011~2012, they will also perform in America, England, Australia, and Brazil.
(t/n: it's so amazing seeing this now when they did perform in those countries. It's truely amazing.)
If you watch BEAST traveling to these foreign countries, you can see that being a 'Tojong idol' can be a negative at times.
That negative comes from 'interaction', otherwise known as 'language'. Now you can reference to 2PM being popular in Thailand and miss A being popular in China.
But these negatives can make a chance for them also.
BEAST being 'Tojong idols' could be a positive in their promotions overseas.
As you can see, K-POP's origin is the U.S.
But if K-POP is shown as something that is copying Pop music, K-POP will break down quickly, and it will be as if they didn't exist at all.
So, since we've been making K-POP be known all over the world for a while, it needs a group with all Koreans in it to show that K-POP is really Korean Pop, and not International Pop.
Isn't there a slogan "Our things are also good!" for a coffee commercial?
Fusion foods are yummy, but pickled peppers, Dwenjang jiggae, Kimchi, and other traditional Korean foods are sometimes more wanted from Koreans.
(t/n: Dwenjan jiggae is a type of 'soup' if you call it in Americano style^^ It's similar to miso soup, but it's more unique and has more yummy ingredients in it)
But even with those negatives, if BEAST wants to be the center of the K-POP trend, they should never be too proud of themselves in the situations they are in now, and they should be busy studying for foreign languages. I've told them that more than enough times.
BEAST is also 'Real Name Idols'.
As you can see, many idol group members have stage names or American names. But all members of BEAST use their real names.
I think that is a very positive fact about BEAST.
If they advertise their real names, I have a feeling that they wouldn't do anything stupid to bring shame to their name.
Some Korean idol groups do things that make us click our tongues and lose their main target.
But I hope that BEAST will be a group that doesn't bring shame to their names.
Because they are 'Real Name idols' ^^
