Best Male Kpop Bandsthekpopmaniac1408
The Top Ten
Diverse music videos (themes that range from No More Dream to Just One Day), engages fans in meet and greets, powerful lyrics and choreography, hardworking, almost equal split parts in songs (I love this part the most, because it upsets me when you have a certain number of group members, and one or two members would get like one or two small line (s)? ). Above all, I enjoy their strong stage presence and tough exterior when need be, and their bubble, cutesy personalities off stage. They're fun to watch and great to listen to. Their dorkiness, respect and love for their fellow group members and their fans is sincere. Stay true to yourself, BTS. You're all admirable men and will succeed in all you do as long as you stay true to yourself and believe in all you do.
They should, at least, belong to the top 5. Why? Their debut song has received much attention fit for a popular boy group. Not only that, every time they make a comeback, they get even better than the last time. They compose their own songs and their tracks are crafted with their own style and the story of their life towards their dream of becoming an artist.They are not only powerful, passionate and emotional dancers, but they are also hardworking and determined artists. They are crowned as the Best Rookie and they are known for their very difficult choreographies. They are very funny, expressive, loving and respectful. Their dorkiness adds their favorable chance of being the best kpop boy group. They are very youthful yet they show maturity in their music. They show passion towards the fans and they are very down-to-earth. Needless to say, they are the dorkiest group I've ever known. By the time I started to stan them, I knew I can't backout.
BTS is by far one of the BEST male idol groups out there today. Not only do they have phenomenal singers and rappers, but they are also composers and their lyrics really speak to their audiences. BTS' music really pushes the envelope and pushes against the status quo which I admire. Not only that but they also have such colorful and quirky personalities which they let shine every chance they get; each member is different and unique in their own special way. They aren't concerned with projecting the pristine "idol" image that so many other groups strive to uphold; they like to be seen as actual human beings and not put on some pedestal. I also love their performances; such dynamic stage presence and crisp clean dancing, accompanied with powerful vocals and amazing rapping is what BTS does best. I love their diverse sound as well, able to be both hard and intense and also sweet and mellow. What's more is they are so sweet and down to earth with their fans and one of the dorkiest male ...more

EXO IS THE BEST. The members are all extremely good looking, and the group is all-rounded. The looks are there, the dance and stage presence as well. They also have a fair share of good singers and rappers, and each individual member is able to do all 3. They get along really well too, and their music videos are close to perfection. They began with difficult dances, and it looks like that is an attribute that will never end. They are very good at variety as well as talking.(Kris can speak 4 languages fluently) They also have a good mix of ages to take care of one another and to appeal to a wide rage of fans of different ages. They are unique individuals with special skills and good, determined personalities. Each member's personality has it's own flavour, and together it makes a giant, epic, successful group, proved in the way they've been so successful since debut. EXO is truly the BEST!
Exo is a very good group, each member is special and gives a special charm to add to their wide range of skills, they are cheerful, charming and above all talented and very gifted. They provided a lot of effort and deserve the award for best rookie group and proof of their popularity they have represented several brands and made the cover of several magazines and add to that they have sold the most albums among new groups. Exo good luck ^ ^.
Exo I really hope that they wil win the best rookies of 2012 because they deserve it... Sm artists are all good.. Suju, snsd, dbsk, boa, shinee, fx and exo daebak.. And for the antis. Stop saying that they are the worst new group.. Try to search them on YouTube and you'll got addicted with their songs. Exo hwaiting!. SARANGHAEYO.. I never love kpop male band like I love exo right now laugh out loud
Best kpop group ever😍 - Dani1803V 490 Comments
SHINee is the ultimate best Kpop group in Korea. They can wear off any kind of styles and still look amazing.. They are not just singers and dancers, but also actors, mc's, hosts end etc. Two of the members have participated in a korean show called Immortal songs, in that show they really show off different singing abilities. They have been to different countries to hold concerts such as the U. S, France, Japan, Thailand and so on. Right now they are back with their 4th album titled Sherlock and their track Sherlock (Clue+Note) has an musical feeling and it shows off a stronger dance and vocals. SHINee is a group that constantly gets better and better. They deserve this title.
SHINee is the best... Yeah. I love you and Shawol love you guy too. Sherlock is a big hit now... Yeah. SHINee fighting
SHINee is the best KPop band for me. They are more than just handsome faces, they are very hardworking, talented and passionate guys. They became my inspiration and I learned a lot from them. One of which is to work hard and never to give up on your dreams. They have been a part of me even in my schooling. Every time stress overcomes me due to school works, they never fail to make me smile, esp my ultimate bias Minho Oppa. <3
Thank you SHINee! You're the best! Fighting!
There is something about them that I just love. Their music is different from other bands which some people don't like...V 256 Comments
I'm a proud V.I. P & I don't care if you don't like their rap, because you don't how much fun Bigbang can do on STAGE. You can tell its V.I. P show the Big Show... Big Bang is also known for their own Fashion Style. That's why many upcoming Korean Boy Group are following their own styles. At the same time BIGBANG was labelled as the " REVOLUTIONARY GROUP OF HALLYU WAVE". If I we're you must listen to their songs from the beginning until their comeback songs this 2012, because its gotten hotter. And I hope their will be more V.I. P's this upcoming 2012. Because BIGBANG will make you go BANG & make you fantastic in your seats.
They are simply an amazing band based on their music, style originality and just over all being themselves make them the best, though their sound has changed bit by bit over the years, they take the change in stride and make it the very best they can and their very best has proven to be amazing in all aspects, in my opinion, which is why I feel they are the best male kpop band out there.
Forever a VIP. Bigbang is the king of K-pop for sure. I'm really proud to be a VIP and I love GD. He's so talented, funny, cute and hot. BIGBANG fighting! GD fighting!
When I was introduced to K-Pop, it was because of BTS. Later I started listening to other groups, including Big Bang. At first, I wasn't really into them, but that didn't take very long- they're so original, different, effortlessly cool, talented people! They have earned their title as 'Kings' and 'Legends', for sure, continuing to revolutionise the k-pop and fashion industry (especially GD)!V 291 Comments
They are the BEST AMONG the rest and still no one can be better than thEM ELF forever go SUPER JUNIOR! FIGHTING!
They are the best kpop male group ever, they helped establish a fan base for kpop groups - not saying that they are the "only" ones but they are one of the groups that helped hallyu wave. SUJU forever!
They're the best in every single way, they have songs with a lot of meaning I wish that they were 13 again! Forever 13! Go suju! Elf forever!
They are the best.V 172 Comments
One of the best kpop group out there. There songs always have strong and badass meaning to it such as warrior, mercy, one shot and badman. But let's not forget about the dancing. For example, I have been to one of their concert before (something I will never forget) and it's amazing. You feel will the stage is about the break any minute (actually happened) because of the power and energy up there. I recommend their songs for anyone who is tried of those girly boy band. I <3 them. A baby forever!
They are just amazing and awesome. They are completely stunning that they take my breath away. They are powerful and cute at the same time. They are the best rookies I have ever seen.
One of the very few k-boybands, if not the only one, that is actually good and does not hide behind good looks. They had made a fictional backstory about the members when they debuted, in the Warrior era, that kind of reminded me of Gorillaz. (just without the cartoon aspect.) Most importantly though, they make actually good music. They try making music in different genres (mostly hip hop) and, surprisingly enough, they do very well. Each one of the members has certain vocal talent, which you can easily distinguish once you've heard songs and get to know the members' voices. Leader Yongguk, for example, has a unique husky "cave" voice, Zelo's rapping skills and perky voice are amazing, Daehyun has the ability to reach really high notes and it's beautiful. All the members have unique aspects to offer to a song, which with all of them combined, makes a great result. Their dancing skills are extremely admirable and they are very synchronized when they do live performances. ...more
I love that their videos have such variety. They can rock hip hop, jazz, ballad, bubblegum pop almost everything! their lyrics are great too. The members have amazing personalities and are a breath of fresh air on variety shows. Each member has a unique voice and is incredibly talented in their own way. Did I mention that they look hot?V 66 Comments
INFINITE are the best of the best!
They are handsome, talented and have a very nice attitude towards fans and other people.
They are popular for their synchronized dancing performances, amazing vocals and cool raps.
They are very good at variety programs.
Who could forget them?
Sunggyu is the grandpa leader who is very protective and caring to his members. His vocals are amazing and can hit pitches perfectly. He is known for his small eyes that even if he winks, it can't be seen &. In fact, he's also a solo artist. His 60 Seconds, I need you etc. Was very good! He is full of passion in singing.
Dongwoo... Well... Who will forgot the dino? His rap are so cool and amazing! He's laugh can make you smile even if you're sad! He's also quite good in dancing and whenever there should be a duo, he and Hoya will be the two.. He's singing skills are also good! He has emotion :) Most of rappers aren't really good in singing but Dongwoo, I'm sure he'll take the number 1 spot in ...more
Infinite is a really brilliant, wonderful boy band. Besides having really good looks, being totally handsome and charming, they also have amazing personalities. Who could forget the time when they actually stayed back to help pick up all the rubbish other idols had left behind? They also have fun character, as portrayed on Ranking King and Sesame Player, being so innocent that we could even forget they were actually idols. Besides, Infinite is really talented in the area of performing. Singing, dancing, rapping, acting, and even MC-ing, you name it, all the talents are in this band. Sunggyu, who is a thoughtful leader and sings beautifully with all his soul; Dongwoo who can rap fast and is charismatic, and dances well; Woohyun, with his powerful God-like voice and can awe everyone in a single room with his gorgeous voice which can turn from strong to sweet and gentle, and has acted before; Hoya, who is an awesome rapper and has fluid, smooth moves when dancing; Sungyeol, who can MC ...more
Though they don't promote outside of Asia (Only in Korea and Japan), I'm pretty sure they're well-known worldwide. They have powerful dance skills and are ALWAYS 99.9% synchronized. Sunbaes see them as a group who will succeed because of their attitude toward work and others. Everyone in this group can actually sing and individual members have his own talent. Overall, what makes INFINITE the best is their love for Inspirits. No matter what they do, they always remember the fans.
The group who made me love kpop would be the one and only InfiniteV 140 Comments
2PM in my opinion is the most hardworking boy kpop group, they aren't the most popular, but should be. If you watch their shows and documentaries, you will see that they have gone through so much just to become the people we know today. I've seen hot blood men and I saw how much they suffered. But even so, they still keep a smile on their faces everyday and they never disappoint us HOTTESTS. If you watch 2PM Show or Idol Army or Wild Bunny, you will see how lively and wild they are. 2PM's relationship amongst each other is the strongest. Everyone is close with everyone. I feel that the member are extremely grateful for what they have now and always thank us for it. If you look at their songs, they are deep and meaningful, 2PM even wrote a song called Thank You for the HOTTESTS and the HOTTEST only. They have been together for 5 years and they have stuck together like eternal glue. They are my ultimate bias and it's so hard to find a different kpop group like them. Their performances ...more
I love these guys! They are definitely my favourite kpop group. I love every single member, haha, maybe Nichkhun a little more because I've seen him on WGM with Victoria and he was so sweet. 2PM also never fails to make me smile. Especially Wild Bunny with Jay is hilarious! I always watch that show when I'm down. Their songs are really catchy, I can totally relate to the contents of the songs, their choreographies are cool and strong, they also do acrobatics, they are so dorky and sweet, handsome, talented, beastly and the list goes on! I also like their strong bond within the band. They also try to get closer to the fans with, E.G. "a song for you from 2PM". They are also kinda unique because there isn't another beastly group out there. (my knowledge) They are simply awesome and still going strong after all they have gone through. I'm proud to be a HOTTEST. Lots of love for 2PM!
They are nice, funny and good looking. I believe that they can one day become internationally recognized! (they are quite popular around the world already though)
For me 2pm are Legends.. and the best alwaysV 61 Comments
Okay I admit their debut song wasn't the best but once you get into these boys you can't escape. Jackson is absolutely hilarious and surprisingly talented oh and very good looking too. And the entire group is full of amazing boys. The fact that three of them speak English fluently makes them even better. And their new song A is just perfection. If you're ever bored I suggest watch anything with GOT7 these boys are insanely entertaining. This group is now my ultimate favorite kpop group.
Besides good singing skills, rapping skills, dancing, martial arts tricking, good fashion sense, handsome and unique faces, GOT7 members are really entertaining in their own way.
One could see that the relationship of the seven members are close to each other, making them honest and comfortable with each other as shown in their variety shows.
They are also hilarious in their own way thus attracting more fans. Their childish thinking makes the fans laugh at them nonstop. I especially recommend watching Igot7 or Real Got7 to know their funny and friendly side.
The fact that they are an international group (4 members from Korea, 1 from Hongkong, 1 from LA, and the last from Thailand), I think that they could get more fans in the future because the fans from these countries would of course support their country men.
This group is also comfortable with skinship with each other and would not even bother to look at their image/appearance as long as they are having ...more
If you haven't already, you need to check out Got7!
As a non-Korean K-pop fan, I feel like I can relate most to Got7 out of all the idol boy groups out there (my personal opinion! I know others will think differently! ).
3 of the 7 members, are foreign, like me, which makes it fun to learn new things alongside them. This has helped me understand the Korean culture better, and made me feel closer to Korean traditions! They even did a Korean point lesson, which was cute beyond words! They think of their fans first which I notice some other idol groups may not do to the best of their abilities...
This is just a bonus though, they're all crazy talented, irresistibly charming and devilishly handsome! I can assure you if you even watch a couple of episodes of iGot7, Real Got7, Got7ing or Hard Carry, you will fall in love with these goofy, kind hearted guys. They can make you feel happy beyond words, or make you shed a river of tears.
All in all, Got7 is truly an ...more
Love them...V 166 Comments
Every member is so talented and loves everything about what they do. And in all honesty, all of the B2ST members are complete dorks. Which is another reason why I love them. Not to mention that there is no real favorite in the group, each member is loved equally. Maybe I'm totally biased because B2ST is the first group I was introduced to, but in my opinion Beast is the B2ST!
Listen to any of their songs, see any of their performances, see there sweet charming personality and realize b2st is the best.
I know other groups, they are good but beast give me different feeling about them. Hard to describe them with great word, more than amazing, more than cool, They have unique characters, it make them so different than other. Good harmony, in depth lyrics and song that will make you love their song, hard dance move, they full of sincerity! They always playing around, full of silliness that will make fans or people around them will happy and laughing all day. But when they sing at the stage, they are really idol who deserve to be the best! When they are singing, you will know that "oh that is beast " because their vocal is different, may be they are gropu with best ballad song, listen to on rainy days, 12.30 and Ribbon as example, you never say those are bad song...
Superior. they are the best, talented, I love them
they don't have any single flaw
The Newcomers
Spotlight is such an incredible album, they finally got better quality recording gear and have compiled a whole album of bops! They're hard-working and talented vocalists, gorgeous visuals and fun dances. I am so excited to see them more in the future! They're fun, terrible at aegyo and always entertaining! - shiorikun
The Contenders
If you have just listened to your man, Love Like This, Love Ya... I recommend you to listen ALL their ballads because you don't know what you are missing, sure they'll kill you with their vocals. I also love the fact that even with all the struggles they face every time, still get to love each other as always no matter what. I love their brotherhood, a thing that not all the groups over there have nowadays. I fell for SS501 in their 20s because of their cuteness, but now in their 30s are handsome as hell lol. Triple S need to do their best on December's comeback. Our boys are giving us so much love with this Eternal saga that makes me so emotional. They made clear that will always be 501 and be a family with Triple S.
No one can ever compare to the. I have currently become obssessed with Exo, like most, but evem then ss501 is still number 1. They have always been one of the top kpop bands. When they comeback they will reclaim their spot. They have everything as a band. They have main vocals, those who use their voices as instruments because of their amazing vocal capabilities, they have singers the ones with also amazing voices that specialize in portraying emotion of the songs, each member is unique with a killer personality. They can be weird and dorky and sexy and mysterious the nest moment. They are cute but at the same time remain manly. Their dancing is also breath taking as is their live singing. Their energy passion and persecerance, and also their humility and kindness mke them amazing. In conclusion, they are perfect because even their imperfections make them perfect
! Kim Hyun Joong! The music is great and dancing it really crisp.
You are number one band always, your songs, tour love make us wait still, we believe that five forever as one, even if you are on hiatus,
Your brotherhood is still present this make us, love you more and more..be back soon

FT Island is so underrated. Lee Hongki's voice is amazing and brings so much to the group. Because they are a band and not an idol group, they don't get as much attention, but they deserve the best because they are amazing. Their songs are so meaningful. Lee Hongki sings the songs so well, putting his heart into every one.
Hong Ki, Jong Hun, Jae Jin, Min Hwan, Seung Hyun
They are the best
F.T Island are very underrated mainly because they aren't an idol group. All of them have their own individual talent. Minhwan plays the drums, Hongki can sing extremely well, Jaejin plays the bass guitar, Jonghyun and Seunghyun play the guitar and they are all very good at singingV 27 Comments
Topp Dogg is pure cuteness and talent. Nice choreography, outfits and great songs.
Love them!
Topp dogg was the first kpop group liked strangely I looked at many top 10 kpop male groups but none of them where that interesting and that's when I found topp dogg I have only been a kpop fun for 2 weeks so far,counting from the time I found topp dogg. I will never stop loving these guys.
I literally have the Topp Dogg logo tattooed on my wrist. Like permanently. I love them so much you don't understand.

DBSK are so talented, not just pretty faces. They are the pioneers of the hallyu wave, they are the ones who spread it, not like nowadays bands who depended on the wave to get famous. DBSK worked so hard, from performing in front of a small crowd to thousands and millions of fans worldwide. Their achievements are countless and these comes from pure efforts, not merely looks like some bands does nowadays, but of TRUE efforts. All five of them sings so well live and dance powerful and harmonises perfectly. Their looks gives their power a bonus. They are simply the best boyband ever, with the vocals, moves, appearance and beautiful hearts. They aren't just kpop, but LEGENDS. Always keep the faith even if it takes forever because its everything is worth it to see this five legends performing on 1 stage, to give a breathtaking performance once again. AKTF Cassiopeias!
DBSK are the most talented idol group in my heart. And every one of them have this kind of talent which makes them one of the best kpop group I ever known..
DBSK are the most talented idol group to have ever debuted in South Korea period. They are number one. I am not a Cassie, but this is the truth.
Should be higher than bts and the others like whatV 24 Comments
I love there song and they are cute, handsome
Each of them play different roles and has different charms.. With the most charismatic leader Yang Seungho, this group different from others because of their unity and closeness among them or should I say they rely to each other so much and owned deep close family relationship. The leader who always monitor his fellow member with discipline and manner, although been called as a devil he also an angel for his group. He never leave them and always be there for them.G. O who has powerful vocal and amazing voice, he really takes care each of his member and been called mom among his member. Joon really an amazing actor and he really express his feeling very well in acting. His dance is sexy and full of charm, but for me Seungho is most talented dancer in Mblaq. His dance always charm and has magic itself that I will keep watching he dance although the other member also talented in dancing. In Thunder case, he has potential to be a great composer and express his feeling well in the song. ...more
Mblaq music is not the typical songs you can usually hear in kpop they have there own style who makes them more unique.. And every one of them have this kind of talent which makes them one of the best kpop group I ever known.. They are very charismatic on stage.. But when they Are not they are the most dorkiet people I ever known:))))
Seriously.. They are the best ever.. Every one of them stood out in their own individual talent., they are not the usual kpop groups who's making same songs every time.. You can see that when they releasd their every album its different from the previous one making them more outstanding.. And the love they are giving to those people who believe in them is very pure, they have the most amazing leader seungho who can make you shut up with just one glare..G. O who's singing ability is the best that I hear.. Joon's personality that can make you laugh every time.. Cheondung charm's that's same with her sister(sandara park) and the maknae mir who's humor.. That can put a smile on your face.. Mblaq fighting!
They are a very charming group with individual members having good looks, good personality and even cute talents.V 17 Comments
I've seen many others boy groups but teen top left the most impact on me. The members all have a great sense of variety and have really amazing dance abilities. Even as I discover other boy groups, I still go back to teen top and I have never seen a group as special as teen top. Each member are special and unique on their own and I love watching the variety shows they appear on even if it's just one of them as everyone of them really make my day. It's really sad that they aren't as popular as they should be and I'm sure they deserve more attention than they have now.
Teen Top has an amazing vocalist I feel that it's so unfair that they are not that popular it's so unfair for their beautiful voices
Teen Top is such a talented group! They are different from other kpop group and they're focused on leg dance. love you Teen Top esp. Ricky oppa!
Teen Top Is Best. They Are Different From Others.They Work So Hard. I LOVE you TEEN TOP. U R The BestV 21 Comments
U-KISS is extraordinarily talented and it's a shame they aren't recognized for it.
They are so down to earth and faithful to their fans although they haven't won a music show yet. They went through a tough time with the member change and came back even stronger with high quality dancing, singing, and music in comparison to other groups out there. AJ even helps compose some of their songs, and they're all great.
And besides my friends and classmates love them so much!
Kiseop I like his outfit so much and of course dong ho is so cute!
U-Kiss are an amazing band. They work incredibly hard and they really cherish their fans. I love how their songs aren't all the same, they give something different each time, and all of the songs get stuck in your head! Their dancing is so cool too, it's hard to look away! On top of that, they all have individual personalities but are all really nice and fun :) Sending love from New Zealand!

I fell in love with them the moment I heard them and if you ever watch their MTV series, you'll fall in love with each member as well! They are so talented and the only reason they aren't as well known is simply because they're new. ALL MY SUPPORT! GO BTOB!
BtoB fighting! They are so adorable and cute, but that's not the point, each of them are very talented and each of them have their own ability. I don't know much about their personality, but singing such kind of song make me see more about them. You can fix the hearts of people with your music that other celebrities can't do.
They are simply amazing, their song was and will always be one of my favourite FAVOURITE korean songs. The boys are so underrated. They are all so talented and they are all hilarious! Their dances are mostly really powerful too! I just don't get why they aren't more famous my brain can't process it

B1A4 daebak like forever!... With their new song; Baby I'm Sorry, they look much hotter&better. When they are on stage, they look charismatic but off the stage, they are the funniest&cutest guys ever. Support B1A4 all the way they are the best&their new album; Ignition... Be The One, All For One..
The most approachable, lovely, friendly oppa GROUP. The love and appreciation they show their fans is amazing and their songs never fail to bring a smile to my face. BANAS UNITE! Let's continue to support them!
They are just the dorks that makes you smile when your having a bad day. I have been in the kpop world for about 8 years now, meaning I have witness so many great boy groups, however ever since I saw these guys I knew that they were a unique group.
B1A4 is the best!V 26 Comments
This rookie group is simply fantastic
Every song they ever released became my favourite.
They are amazing
ALL their songs are AMAZING! Love their voices! Also ALL their music videos are awesome! The choreography is so unique & u can literally see the work put into each video!
They are relatively new yes, but give them a try! You won't regret it!
They are the group with mixture of handsome and cute... BOYFRIEND IS THE BEST
Boyfriend is the cutest group ever. They captivated my heart in just a look. They are the best Rookie group of 2011. They have the best songs and the best fans. Bestfriend loves Boyfriend Forever! Boyfriend Fighting ^_^

I love their songs "Shout Out" and "Drawing the Line"!
Awesome group!
Drawing the line is my fave from theirs. They're so cool and charismatic on variety shows/interviews. They are also handsome. I hope they becone popular soon. ♡ - LSJ_TK
They are aWEsOMeEEeEeEeEe.
They are very young and creative, they make their own music, rap, choreography, lyrics, background, and can work as a team. Looking at their One Fine Day videos or Seventeen Project shows their caring, happy, silly, and idol worthy personalities. They think of each other as families and have their own special identity in this group of thirteen boys. They only debuted about last year and they are already making their mark. Being super young and handsome isn't the only thing that makes them popular. Hopefully one day they will be as popular as the good Ole super junior and make their talents useful.
One of the FUNNEST groups I've ever seen, and also the most creative and talented. Their relationships with each other all look like they're genuine, and they never fail to show that even in their dances. I love it when they make other dance versions of their songs and also do funny part switches. They're just... Fun! And honestly, I thought I'd never get more obsessed with them over BTS or EXO. These guys definitely have a future ahead of them. SVT FIGHTING!
I've never seen any groups with such good manners. They never let us down, like seriously, their performance is so lit, and every time they perform, they change their dance and performance. They're so talented yet so hard working. They always think of fans first, and they never fail to impress us.
Plss vote for seventeenV 26 Comments
They're so goofy and funny, and they make good music too. From romantic and slow to fast and badass, they have everything. Plus, they're good looking too! They stay as my favourite group forever, no one can replace them. Once you're in their fandom, you can't get out!
They are just plain addictive! They are the first Korean boy band that I have come to love and I am super obsessed! Kyung is definitely my favorite out of all of them. He is super smart and super adorable!
There hot in my opinion!
BLOCK B is an incredible group. All their music fits my taste and I'm always impressed at their strong performances with their killer charisma. So much versatility in style and presentation of themselves.
There are 7 members, Lovely Fisher Jaehyo; Genius Park Kyung; Beautiful Vocalist Taeil; Sexy Dancer Minhyuk; Incredible Rapper/Producer Zico, Baby-face Maknae Jihoon, Killer Smile Yukwon!
They do not disappoint! - shiorikun
I Love Kang Min Hyuk he is very good in drums he is ver cute. He is lovely and confident.
CNBLUE is an all rounder BAND. Its members are equally talented having been into many kinds of musical instrument, songwriting, composing, hosting, acting, modeling, sports and you can name a few. Admittedly, they can't dance a perfectly choreograph dance step but you can bet leader Jung YongHwa if he puts his heart into it - he can do it. So as to other members. Cause you know, CNBLUE can be spell as hardworking, too. CNBLUE members are all so handsome with a very impressive personality and character. I am an type AB person and an aquarius. So you can sa admire and like something or someone. But when I do, you will know that there is a very good reason to it. And I am extremely loyal to it.
Yong Jung Hwa so sexaayy lols he's the best.
Minhyuk is mineV 41 Comments
VIXX is amazing, but they rarely get any attention. They have astounding vocals and impressive dancing! What I don't get is that there are other groups that have less vocal and dancing skills but receive more attention than them. They really do deserve way more attention than this. I really liked their single Chained Up, and have ever since been a VIP since their debut. Work it up, VIXX! Keep up the good work!
VIXX has come a very far way and they honestly are amazing. Each one makes VIXX what they are today. They are the reasons why I am still into Kpop and I love them! VIXX will always be an all time number one favorite of mine. They are able todo concepts that other groups have never thought of and the dances! The dances are extremely awesome an sexy! Give VIXX a lot of love!
Their Amazing, They've improved a lot since last year! Hyde Was Just amazing and more and more new Starlights came, so vixx might be at the top soon so watch out! VIXX FIGHTING
Much better than bts! And I love them so muc, and ThEiR mUsiC! - blueLightV 50 Comments
They are the reason I started listening to KPop. They have such an angelic voice. JYJ Fighting!
Yoochun is the reason why I listen to Kpop. JYJ you're the best. ALWAYS KEEP THE FAITH.
They're not the usual kpop group that relies heavily on techno sound but rather, they can sing acapella and any other music genres. They're so versatile that they can also belt out and rap as well. - eimarebiro
Very wonderful Band... My Favorite KPOP Band in South Korea... GO KIM JAEJOONGV 4 Comments
I Love Nu'est, they may be new.. But they are my number one. And then U-KISS would be my second :D yes, Nu'est may be new, have very little songs, but they bring the best in me, and everyone who listens to them. I do believe they should be top ten, instead of top twenty
They have the best songs ever. I especially liked Face. The best thing about them is that they are new and they aren't that popular yet.
Nu'est is a new music band, FACE AND I'M SORRY IS VERY GOOD BY NU'EST
I love Nu'est so much their music is amazing and is very catchy. The coriography is amazing that I want to learn it.V 11 Comments
This truly amazing Boy band are this absolute cutest! It doesn't take long to fall in love with them and it takes so little time to tell them apart. They are all so different, yet are all so loveable, sometimes even to each other! I get how everyone would say that BTS is the best no matter what, but I just find it difficult to get into them as they already have so many songs and I think there are too many members. But Astro has only 6 members and are still quite new. They don't have many songs, but they are by far the best songs! I am so surprised that they are 41st on the list, but keeping in mind that they only debuted about 2/3 years ago, that's amazing!
Astro is a work in progress group. Even though I bias Astro, I feel that they should go through the different phases and change their wardrobe a little bit. Besides Bigbang, Astro brought me into the K-POP fandom world. Other people would say BTS, Exo, Got7, but for me its Astro.
Astro is probably one of the best boy bands I know of. They have a cute charm and happy aura to each one of them... And they are like family to each other-- not to mention that they're cute dorks :) Astro may have just started their career but already- they've been worldwide loved and they always keep their fans updated. They also treat their fans like family as well, each member has a cute way of expressing their love for their fans.
Astro is like the sweet little brother of Kpop, it's likeable, friendly, bright and colourful. If you ever have a bad day listening to Astro will always cheer you up!V 6 Comments
! They deserve to be one of the top ten! Have you ever even listened to This Love or Venus and don't get me started on Sniper or Scarface. Even though so many Korean groups have appeared and I've listened to so many amazing songs but in the end nothing beats Shinhwa. They're legends and they look so hot and manly even in their thirties ugh. Their voices are so unique and their dance moves are breathtaking and don't get me started on those amazing MVs! They are and will always stay my number one band. Always managing to make my heart skip a beat. They're the reason I even listen to Kpop or draw haha! Legends will always stay legends.
Legends will be legends. I'm anticipating more from the 1st generation original idols. They've certainly proved why they outlived their fellow idols back in the day. Loyalty, determination and perseverance goes a long way. They have their individual charms, but they just shine the brightest as six. 6-1=0
Legends will be legends... There's a reason why this group's been around for years and each member has contributed in their own way, to music and film. They won best Asian artist how many times?! All these current group base themselves on this one!
Shinhwa means "Legend" in Korean. That's my thoughts on the group in a nutshell. - PerfectImpulseXV 6 Comments
Wow I just knew now that nct dream is a punch of teenagers I watched chewing gum and that is exactly what I thought about they are teenagers but I never believed that a company would make a teenagers group never ever and now I am surprised that in their debut they manged to perform that well I am not a fan but good job nct dream
They are talented and sweet with fans
Rising stars in the making
I love these boys. They deserve so much better. They work so hard, Especially Haechan and Mark. NCT Dream fighting!V 4 Comments
Even that still they haven't debut they are very funny and talent
I love them so much
I think Winner is amazing and should have more fans than IKON, because Winner had to go through hard times and itś sad how they get very little attention.
WINNER is a funny group of guys with a sound that is forever growing on me. Beautiful forward vocal tones, bright vocal colours, strong rap sound.
IT'S POSSIBLE TO DANCE ALONG WITH THEM. This may sound negative, but their simpler choreographies make them more memorable and easier to provide the best live vocal performances!
There are 4 wonderful members, Maknae Leader Seungyoon; Artist Rapper Mino; Beautiful Peace-maker Jinwoo; Deputy Seunghoon Lee. I love them so much and am always looking forward to their next comebacks and activities. - shiorikun
BGA is a starter group but their songs are still really good.
They haven't debuted but they are very hard-working and talented. They're already popular and they deserve it
I think they're very good singers and rappers when I listened to their songs they were very awesome to listen too.
I like their songs airplane, my type, apology, rhythm ta, anthem.
Every iKON song is My Type! Their vocal and rap tones plus their charisma make their performances memorable and their group one to watch. Their music is unique, swaggy, emotional, contrasting and overall amazing to listen to! - shiorikunV 7 Comments
They're gonna be up there soon
They're so go od. t he best I've seen and not even in the top 50?
I love NCT!
2AM vocals are indefinitely beautiful. These boys are beyond talented. Changmin, proves that he is 2AM's main vocal. He has a unique voice and is capable of advanced breathing techniques, enabling him to sing a variety of songs, especially trot. Changmin is recognized repeatedly, through the broadcast of Immortal Song 2 and other instances when he sang. Jo Kwon holds the title of leader and the responsibility is evident. Having to train for 8 years, he has the most experience compared to any other idol. Those 8 years were not spent in vain as his beautiful and soothing voice rings across the world. Though his voice is rather high, he is capable of singing other genres of music rather than only ballad, as proven in the debut of his solo album. His voice is soothing and gentle. Seulong is the tallest of the group. Despite his strong/large appearance, he has a falsetto range that puts girls to shame. His voice is charming and takes on some of the highest notes in 2AM's songs. His ...more
This band of boys is awesome. Guys, they are under JYP entertainment. GOT7 FANS. TWICE FANS. Watch jaw on asc his voice is heavenly
LED APPLE I think they are more deserving to be more popular than some bands. They have the "skill. " AND they're handsome too.
There were in Germany and I was at their concert. It was so awesome! They are so funny, their music is amazing and they are all pretty handsome!
I don't like this group
Love ledapple there so awesome, every song released is amazing (hanbyul saranghae. X)
They are all so awesome! Very funny group I just fell in love with them after hearing the beginning of The Day We Broke Up and watching the video was so uplifting! I love it all. It's sad that not many people recognize how talented they really are and they are all so good looking to laugh out loud my mom said the first time she saw them wow they all look so beautiful like Angels making them not attractive anymore ~~ I was surprised because she hardly pays any attention to my kpop stuff.
Awesome group, mixed variety of fun! Siwan, dongjun, kwanghee, heechul, junyoung, hyunshik, minwoo, taehyun
They have amazing actors in the group and they are so cute.
The worst group everV 2 Comments
I don't like this boy group
Amaze group WAY under-appreciated
Up10tion is fairly new but their debut amazed me with their choreography and how together they are in every thing. They are incredibly strong in music and I wish they would get more recognition. Up10tion fighting!
I like this group it is so funny and fun
I wached this the up10tion it is so funny and I like this show and I listen the song too the song they are sing is little bad of it
I have to agree, its really easy to fall for up10tion, I mean their vocals are so good and also their dancing skills are amazing, and they have good looks, I even like their songs.
BUT. I ONLY FOUND OUT ABOUT THEM IN AUGUST 1,2016, and here in my country is already the 13th of august.
I don't know who is the group
How could B2ST oppa's ranking be #59?!? They're my first ever bias boy group that introduced me to kpop. I own all their cd's and I love all their songs<3 Please support B2ST oppa's and Hyunseung oppa
Can't believe Big Byung is in that list
I don't know who that group is
OH MY GOD Jackson he has two groups GOT7 and BIG BYUNG :/
Okkk I take that back...V 3 Comments
I don't know the this group but I never see this show of boy group
Because they member is super handsome
I never see this before
Bursting with charms!V 2 Comments
These boys have just started out and are truly one of my favorites. Knock is an amazing introduction and after watching a few videos, I've concluded its easy to fall for them.
They've gotten pretty popular after debuting
TALENTED..FUNNY HILARIOUS ON VARIETY SHOWS.. TALL, HANDSOME the shortest member 180cm the tallest ALMOST 190CM STAN TALENT STAN KNK. RECENT COMEBACK TITLE "BACK AGAIN" MV
This guys are the best they are amazing!
I wached this one before
Son los mejores de todos
Amazing band :) I absolutely love them.V 2 Comments
I absolutely love them for their "UNIQ"ue songs and their ability to change from super sexy steamy moves to a cute maknae-y dance! (ex. watch EOEO then watch UNIQ Happy New Year) I also love their playful personalities when not performing (their let's dance videos show this)

Justin Bieber has a crush on Michelle Obama, according to sources.
The 16-year-old, who has previously expressed an interest in Emma Watson, Kim Kardashian and Tina Fey, has a full-length poster of the First Lady on his bedroom wall, reports The Sun.
An insider said: "It sounds strange but Justin is a genuine fan. He met Michelle when he sang for the Obamas at a concert in Washington DC last Christmas and was impressed.
"He likes what she represents. She's a strong, independent woman and dedicated mum. She's also principled and does a lot of work for charity.
"He likes that she is so glamorous without looking unnatural or plastic like so many people he meets. She is someone he greatly admires."
The 'Baby' singer is also believed to have befriended Obama's 12-year-old daughter Malia, who he met during his performances in the White House at Christmas and Easter.
The source added: "Justin and Malia have struck up a friendship because she's a huge music fan. His manager and bodyguard have been joking about how much they get on."

Study skills and how to teach them Back to list
Taking good notes is a skill but how do I teach it?
Very often we just expect students to naturally know how to take good notes or how to revise vocabulary without teaching them the strategies to enable them to become successful students.
Why not try focusing on a study area each month and aim to provide your students with specific guidelines to help them improve their revision techniques, note taking, memorisation skills, etc. If you're not sure how to tackle the area of study skills, we have lots of activities to help you.
Watch this clip on how to take organised notes and get your students to practise this over the space of a month. Ask them to show you their notes. Ask them to think about how they could improve the notes they have taken. Spend time on improving this skill by getting them to revise their notes and feedback on how they have changed the way they take notes. Listening to peers in the class can have a positive effect on how students tackle this important area, and it's a skill that will serve them for life, through University to the work environment.
Why not try out this activity on mneumonics with your students to help them learn difficult spellings? The same technique can be used for a wide variety of subject areas, for example, from trying to remember the names of bones in the body to the names of certain periods in history. It's a useful technique that I'm sure your students will benefit from.
Recording and recycling
When we're looking at how to record and recycle vocabulary, a good starting point is the textbook itself. For example, in Pulse 1 and 2, the study guide at the end of each unit groups the vocabulary into lexical sets. This enables students to look back over the key vocabulary they have seen in the unit and work on groups of words. It is also a good idea to provide learners with key words or word banks before beginning a task.
If you'd like to focus on recording vocabulary, why not ask your students to do Study skills: grouping words and Study skills: mind maps or Study skills: word detectives to ask them to practise organising their vocabulary.
If you take time to focus on study skills, you'll not only help to improve your students' performance now but also give them the essential tools they will need later on in life to succeed.

LEMUR (Pre-print (author's copy) - Non-Peer Reviewed) 2.492Mb
The solar outer atmosphere is an extremely dynamic environment characterized by the continuous interplay between the plasma and the magnetic field that generates and permeates it. Such interactions play a fundamental role in hugely diverse astrophysical systems, but occur at scales that cannot be studied outside the solar system. Understanding this complex system requires concerted, simultaneous solar observations from the visible to the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) and soft X-rays, at high spatial resolution (between 0.1?? and 0.3??), at high temporal resolution (on the order of 10 s, i.e., the time scale of chromospheric dynamics), with a wide temperature coverage (0.01 MK to 20 MK, from the chromosphere to the flaring corona), and the capability of measuring magnetic fields through spectropolarimetry at visible and near-infrared wavelengths. Simultaneous spectroscopic measurements sampling the entire temperature range are particularly important. These requirements are fulfilled by the Japanese Solar-C mission (Plan B), composed of a spacecraft in a geosynchronous orbit with a payload providing a significant improvement of imaging and spectropolarimetric capabilities in the UV, visible, and near-infrared with respect to what is available today and foreseen in the near future. The Large European Module for solar Ultraviolet Research (LEMUR), described in this paper, is a large VUV telescope feeding a scientific payload of high-resolution imaging spectrographs and cameras. LEMUR consists of two major components: a VUV solar telescope with a 30 cm diameter mirror and a focal length of 3.6 m, and a focal-plane package composed of VUV spectrometers covering six carefully chosen wavelength ranges between 170 ? and 1270 ?. The LEMUR slit covers 280?? on the Sun with 0.14?? per pixel sampling. In addition, LEMUR is capable of measuring mass flows velocities (line shifts) down to 2 km s???1 or better. LEMUR has been proposed to ESA as the European contribution to the Solar C mission.

How can you give 28000 as a salary, that too after working for 3 yrs of overhyped-underprivileged Group A Class I officer service? How on earth does this meagre amount qualify for a salary even? This is what I earned for the past two months. Sadly but truly it is 4000 less than what my Group C staff got this month. At one point I had an urge to borrow some from him in lieu of granting 8 extra leaves . 28K in 28 days of Feb. means I managed to earn only 1000 Rs per day which gives me a feeling of having myself enrolled in MGNREGA rather than working as a Govt officer(Pl add 'Overhyped' every time I use this cuss word).
28K is a sum which can swing a Bollywood Maa's mood away from honest salaried Police officer Ravi to Bangla-Gaadi-Naukar -Chaakar owning criminal Vijay. 2015 is 40 yrs more than 1975. Presuming Ravi owned 1000 Rs per month then and adding an increment of Avg 1000 Rs per yr (considering in b/w pay commissions) he would have earned 41000 in Feb 2015, 13000 more than me. And to admit my mother is no simple, innocent, white suti saree clad Nirupama Roy of 1975 potboiler Deewar. She knows things and she demands things. She rattles of Flipkart by heart. Although she calls it Philip Kaat . Last week she asked me to buy "5 sim wala Aashu Ye Phone ". It took me 3 google search to decipher her craving for Asus Zenfone 5 and 3 days to convince that 5 is not meant for 5 sim slots.(You guessed it right, Aashu is my nickname)
28000 Man??In hindi its called Atthais Hazaar. Infact in hindi it stinks. Even Tees-Battees hazaar commands some respect in social circle. But atthais hazzaar??Although its not true but in general parlance of Bihar,UP Afsar gets Assi (80) hazaar and a Peon gets Paitees (35) hazaar. Where does Atthais fit into it??Bandhua Mazdoor!
I thought Jaitley baba with a mandate of 282 would be heartful enough to part away some amount from Govt coffers as bonus for Holi/Diwali to officers too. I waited for this announcement with bated breath and dog's curiosity during his budget presentation. But finally all he did was to move away on his Elephant slowly and surely.
Thankyou for reading.

White Knight Two - photo courtesy of Virgin Galactic.
The odd-looking aircraft designed to help launch the fledgling space tourism industry made its first flight Dec. 22 in Mojave, Calif., and reached an altitude of 16,000 feet.
The hour-long flight went smoothly despite a rare snowfall that coated the high desert with snow.
The twin-fuselage, composite, four-engine, White Knight Two is designed to carry the Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo to an altitude of 50,000 feet. There, it will release the Burt Rutan-designed, rocket plane on sub-orbital flights carrying high-paying space tourists.
"It all went well," said Dick Rutan, a record-setting pilot and the designer's brother. "All the big things worked. Overall, 99 percent on target and everybody is really happy. You get an airplane that's this weird and get it up and get it down . . . and it's safe on deck."
White Knight Two is a larger, more complex, heavy lifting version of the original White Knight that carried SpaceShipOne to altitude. SpaceShipOne won the $10 million Ansari X Prize in 2004 by becoming the first privately funded aircraft to make a pair of flights to the edge of space within two weeks.

Playing Catch-Up & Double Posting -
Things couldn't have been worse lately, what with my syracuseblog.com account being down for the entire week! Posts disappeared into the ether, uploads would'nt and didn't, and I've spent a lot more time than I really wanted to reopening this mirror site. To make matters worse, I can't have my own name the way I want it to appear over here. Anyway, my plan is to switch back here for good if things continue to be buggy at syracuseblog. For the moment, you'll be able to find posts here as well as at Mick Mather's ARTblog while I sort through a final decision that works for me. That said, below is an old image I've popped in while I test the waters. I may be doing a good bit of "mining" the digital archives here at HQ this month and I'll do my best to cross reference and link to alternate versions. F'rinstance, if you click here you'll find the original image that was posted at Illustration Friday almost a year ago.

Fasting is the act of not eating food or drinking liquid other than water for varying lengths of time. Fasting, not to be confused with starvation, has been used for thousands of years and is used as medical treatment for many conditions, both physical and psychological. Fasting can be a useful method to prevent disease and improve overall health. Hippocrates, Paracelsus and Ayurvedic medicine attested to the medical benefits of fasting. Fasting is also a common spiritual or religious tradition. Fasting is an accepted naturopathic treatment for many illnesses and chronic conditions (Encyclopaedia Britannica 2014). For the purpose of this review I will be concentrating on fasting as a method of disease prevention.
The texts evaluated are The True Science of Living, by Dr E H Dewey (1894), McFadden's Fasting, Hydropathy and Exercise, by B MacFadden and F Oswald (1903), and Fasting for the Cure of Disease, by Dr L B Hazzard (1912). I selected the first texts because it is written as a series of lectures based on original investigation into the topic of fasting. The two (2) later texts were chosen because they heavily reference Dr E H Dewey as well as Dr Isaac Jenning who authored Medical Reform (1847).
The True Science of Living (Dewey 1894) is a series of lectures which begin with the Author's background as a surgeon in the Army. Dr E H Dewey earned his medical degree from the University of Michigan. His interest in the topic of fasting began whilst conducting post mortems. The physiological relationship between food and the human body is explained in medical terms. Illustrative cases of his own and other physician's patients are used as empirical evidence. The lectures include the evolution of disease and cure, and a discussion on insanity and germ theory of disease. Lecture XXVII is specifically for his fellow physicians. The texts described how to begin a fast but it lacks in explaining any precautions that should be taken or any possible side effects of fasting. The eighteen (18) page introduction to the text is written by Reverend George Pentecost and is his personal account of his own fasting experience. He describes how he no longer suffers headaches, his weight loss and the improvement in his complexion, clarity of his eyes and his increased mental alertness. There is a fair amount of religious jargon but that is to be expected when you consider his profession.
Fasting, Hydropathy & Exercise (MacFadden and Oswald 1903) is an empirical study based on Dr E H Dewey's findings (1894). Within the fasting section, there are five (5) chapters which discuss physiological data, a plan for fasting, restrictions, protracted fasts and a first-hand account of a seven (7) day fast by one of the authors. They theorise about fasting in the animal kingdom and how nature assists us when we are ill by reducing our appetite. The True Science of Living (Dewey 1894) is heavily referenced and directly quoted throughout the text. There are also historical references such as the forty (40) day fast of Buddha Shakyamuni approximately 500 BC. The text is written with less medical jargon than The True Science of Living (Dewey 1894) and is more of a manual on how to live a healthful life with the aid of fasting, hydropathy and exercise. The final chapter covers detailed treatment plans for specific conditions. The treatments are of a holistic nature and I would consider them to be of sound advice even today.
Fasting for the Cure of Disease (Hazzard 1912) also heavily references The True Science of Living (Dewey 1894). Dr E H Dewey is acknowledged in the preface as her mentor. Dr L Hazzard acknowledges that her theories are not original but her research has been conducted through medical autopsies. Dr L Hazzard also references the Doctrines of Unity in the Cause and Cure of Disease which covers the investigation of thousands of cases over a period of sixteen (16) years. Experiments carried out by Professor Irving Fisher of Yale University are also used in Dr L Hazzard's research. She claims to connect the origin of disease with the immediate cause of death whilst being free from the effects of drugs. Dr Hazzard includes a glossary of medical and technical terms to assist the reader who is not a physician. I found the text sufficiently detailed in the why, how and when of fasting as a medical treatment and prevention of disease. Dr L Hazzard took Dr E H Dewey's findings and researched them in greater detail in a medical and scientific manner.
The three (3) texts reviewed are all original texts that draw the same conclusions on fasting as a suitable medical treatment plan and preventative measure against disease. They are comprehensive in the knowledge of the human body and the theory of fasting. There are some differences in the way the authors suggest one should conduct a fast. Dr E H Dewey (1894) recommends fasting for extended periods, greater than three (3) days at a time. Dr L Hazzard (1912) approaches the fast on an individual basis, whereby one size does not fit all. McFadden and Oswald (1903) suggest reducing our overall intake of food to one meal per day for the long term as a way of preventing disease. I found the texts to be thorough in their findings and believe they contain information that the reader can use today to improve their overall well-being.

The suit states the defendant resigned her position as area vice president of sales on Sept. 7, and began working for Canon Solutions America on Sept. 11.

Edward M. Langille wrote into a local paper asking how the federal government was "allowed to disfigure the natural and traditional beauty of our seacoast." He also provided the following description of the lighthouse.
For those not acquainted with the village of Fishermans Harbour, the former lighthouse was a pretty white wooden frame structure set on a spit of gravel and rock at the entrance to the harbour. It was a small lighthouse, almost a miniature. It was a charming landmark.
The effect of that humble building against the dramatic backdrop of sky and the rugged seacoast was quintessential Nova Scotia, a painters dream, the kind of picture seen on a tourist brochure.
The Nova Scotia Lighthouse Preservation Society was apparently aware of the planned destruction of the lighthouse, but with so many lighthouses dotting the province's shore, the society simply doesn't have enough resources to save every lighthouse.
A modern tower was erected to replace the wooden lighthouse.

"Isaac, I didn't see you yesterday." Lindsay, one of Cassandra's friends, walked up to Isaac during school lunch.
"I was here." Isaac answered.
"Well, we didn't see you anywhere." Tasha explained. "We wanted to know if Cassandra was still in Oklahoma City. She's not around and she hasn't call any of us."
"That's because she got in a car accident with her father on the way there."
"Oh my gosh, is she all right?" Lindsay and Tahsa panicked.
"She was in a coma for a few days but she's fine now. Her father died."
"Oh how terrible. Where is she? Can we see her?" Lindsay asked.
"I don't know where she is. They put her in a foster home."
"A foster home? That's got to be harsh." Tasha remarked.
"I'm sure she's just going through some rough times right now. She'll call us when the times right." Lindsay responded.
"I hope so." Tasha and Lindsay walked off together.
"Earth to Ike, earth to Isaac." Isaac's friend Marlon waved a hand in front of his face.
Isaac smacked it away from him. "What do you want?"
"You're like in your own little fairy tale world over there. Do you like one of those chicks or something?" Marlon chuckled. "They're pretty hot, but Tasha is already taken by Zan, but then again what does that matter. You can kick his lily white butt."
"Marlon, you punk." Isaac socked Marlon in the arm.
"You know I'm going out with Cassandra." Isaac failed to tell him about Cassandra.
"Oh, so that's the problem. You need to get rid of her to get in Lindsay's pants. Cause you know Cassandra ain't givin' you any." Marlon poked fun.
"You're a jerk."
"Yep, see what not getting any has done to you? You're hard up."
"And Cassandra thought I was a pervert. Could you imagine if I were like you? Now I know why you get dumped almost every other day."
"Least I'm getting some." Marlon punched Isaac in the stomach. "Why don't you come with me and Greg after school? Were going to Jill's house and having a little privet party."
"No, I think I'll pass." Isaac looked disgusted at Marlon.
"Fine with me."
After school Isaac hopped into Cassandra's eclipse and followed the directions Marge had given him on a napkin the day before.
Isaac pulled into the police stations parking lot and immediately spotted Marge leaning up against her white Jeep Cherokee. Isaac pulled his car up beside hers and got out.
"Hey there." Marge greeted
"So did you bring the letter?" Marge asked.
"Yep, got it right here." Isaac patted his pant pocket. "I've been thinking, what if they think I planted the dress and letter?"
"That's a possibility."
"I mean I did break into her house. And I touched everything, it all has my finger prints."
"But it's Dales hand writing on the note." Marge put in.
"I guess so." Isaac didn't seem to sure.
"Well, lets put it this way, your not lying now, are you?" Marge asked.
"Okay then." Marge patted Isaac's shoulder. "Go in there and show 'em whatcha got."
Marge and Isaac walked side by side to the entrance of the police station.
"Wait a second." Isaac stopped.
"What am I supposed to say? Excuse me mister policeman sir, I think my girl friends father was going to kill her and himself before they plummeted off a cliff and he died?"
"How about we ask for detective Brooks and Wallace first?"
"Can we just see if they will tell us where she is first? I know Cassandra doesn't want her personal life broadcast around."
"Sure but I doubt they will tell." Marge continued into the station with Isaac following behind. They both walked up to the main desk.
"Hello, can I help you?" A woman behind the desk dressed in and officers uniform asked.
"Hi, um, is detective Brooks and or Wallace here?" Marge asked for Isaac.
"I'm pretty sure they are. Do you want me to get them for you?" The lady asked politely.
Marge and Isaac nodded their heads.
"All right, be right back." The lady officer walked further behind her desk and disappeared behind a wall.
Isaac's hands repeatedly tapped at his sides and he uneasily bent his right ankle leaning his full weight on the side of his foot while Marge steadily waited unruffled.
"Sorry, I forgot to ask what this was about." The officer came around the corner of the wall shaking her head. "Can I ask what the visit is concerning?"
"A few days back my girlfriend got in a car accident, her father died and she was placed in a foster home." Isaac spoke uneasy. "I need to find her."
The officer nodded her head and left behind the wall again. She came back moments later with a frown of her face. "I'm sorry but It seems that they can't help you out here. She hasn't called you or tried to contact you at all?"
"No." A scowl crossed Isaac's face.
"I'm sorry." The officer sympathized.
Marge butted into the conversation as she touched Isaac's forearm. "He has more to tell the detectives about the situation. I think they would like to know the information.
The officers eyes jetted from Marge to Isaac. "I'll go talk to them again." She headed to the back.
"Well, that didn't work." Isaac frowned at Marge.
"On to plan B." Marge winked at Isaac.
"What if she's even more mad at me because I told them all about it?" Isaac asked sadly.
"Then let her be, she'll cool down sooner or later."
"Okay, they will see you now!" The officer interrupted their conversation. "Follow me."
Isaac and Marge trailed behind her into a large room in the back. The room was brightly lit with two desks on either side of the room. Two men were at one, one sitting behind the desk and the other on the top.
"Hi, I'm detective Wallace." Wallace stood from his seat behind the desk.
"I'm Brooks."
Everyone shook hands and Isaac introduced them both to Marge explaining who she was.
"You said you had some information for us?" Wallace questioned.
"Yes, he does." Marge lightly shoved Isaac from behind telling him to go on.
Isaac reached into his pocket pulling out the letter Dale wrote. "Yeah, here." He handed it to Wallace. "I found it on Cassandra's bed on a dress yesterday."
Isaac and Marge watched as Wallace read it and handed it to Brooks to read. They stared at each other for a moment and then looked to Isaac.
"Where did you find this son?" Wallace questioned.
"It was on a dress, on her bed in her room." Isaac explained.
"Did Cassandra see this note?"
"No, she hasn't been home yet."
"So how did you get into the house?"
"Well, I let myself in."
"You mean you broke in?"
"The window to the guest room was open."
"That's called breaking and entering."
"But you don't understand, Dale wrote that note. Don't you get it?" Isaac pleaded.
"Well, it has his signature but that doesn't mean he wrote it.
"It all ties in." Isaac was becoming frustrated.
The detectives glanced at each other.
"The boys got more." Marge interceded. "Go ahead Isaac tell them."
Isaac preseded to fill the detectives in on the whole story. After Isaac was sure he told the detectives everything they thanked him.
"Okay, Isaac you can go home now, son." Wallace gestured towards the door.
"That's it? What about Cassandra? You have to tell her."
"You've been very helpful. Now go home and if we need any more information we'll give you a call. And if I hear about you being in Cassandra's house again I will have you arrested." Wallace warned.
"But wh..." Isaac started.
"Come on boy." Marge grabbed Isaac by the arm gently and lead him out the door.
Isaac wasn't sure if the detectives believed him after all he was just a kid and they didn't act too excited.
As Marge lead Isaac out of the station Isaac had to squint his eyes. The florescent lights above them were much brighter than the ones in Wallace and Brooks office. The air smelled of stale Kentucky fried chicken from an earlier lunch. He noticed that the station wasn't that busy being a small town like Ponto and all.
As soon as they were out of the station Isaac pulled his arm away from Marge. "I need to find her and tell her." Isaac demanded. "They don't believe me at all."
"Yes they do. Now why don't you go home like they said and let them do their job?" Marge took out her keys from her purse.
"I can't just sit and wait. They aren't doing anything."
"I know how you feel but there's nothing you can do." Marge pressed. "Here," She handed him a paper and pen. "give me your phone number and if there's anything I find out I'll call you."
Isaac willingly wrote down his number and handed it back to Marge.
"And I'll give you mine in case you need to talk." Marge handed Isaac her phone number. "I want you to go to school tomorrow. We'll find her."
"Thank you Marge." Isaac stuffed her number in his pocket and robotically climbed into Cassandra's car and drove home.
