Korean Pop Music (K-Pop)

Does anyone know where to get info about K-Pop? I don't know how to read Korean so it would be great to find a site that has info about K-Pop in English.

English K-Pop Site

Here is a site that has info about K-Pop, or Korean pop music, in English:

http://world.kbs.co.kr/english/enter/music_inter.htm

The site is all in english and is a good starter for those who are unfamiliar with the world of K-Pop. The site includes profiles on all the singers and bands, which can be very useful for playing games like "Who am I" with students.

Myspace

A lot of Korean bands are also on Myspace.com. I know a lot of people think it's a trashy homepage site, but it can be really useful for lots of things and is in English, so that helps!

Itunes

I know many people use Itunes and if you look on Itunes radio under the "International" you can find Asian pop--Korean and Japanese, which are both very popular in Korea!

Pop Goes Asia

"Pop Goes Asia" radio on Itunes radio has Chinese, Japanese, Thai, and Korean pop, rock, techno, and R&B. I haven't found one that's specifically Korean yet, though.
