090125 MBC Star Dance Battle - 태군 TaeGoon
amazing! his air flip or whatever was flawwwless. and look at that smile! he was up against kara and lost -.- i don't understand.

^ thanks for the link, the beginning part was funny.. i dont know why hahaha~
and his smile...weee~ adorable indeed.. the flip was fantastic. reminds me of hankyung ahhaha~
wow the powerful dance was awesome too!! perfect music for him to dance.. and once again.. his smile are just *___*
i keep replaying on that part haha~

wee.. he lost against kara? wow~

He really deserved to win, I don't understand it either..

He is such a sexy dancer!! *woot& (^O^) I am in love with this guy!~
He does have a alluring smile Very adorable...

When I first saw him dance in his mv...I thought he danced like Se7en...
or reminded me of Se7en. I just confirmed it with my sister that he has
Se7en & Big Bang's backdancers...meaning he's using the same dance
team/crew as them. Pretty interesting...

So he lost the battle to Kara?! No way! He is so damn fine! Ugh! (>.<)

Thanks so much for the Tae Goon updates!~

IDU how he lost omg.
He did so many dance types and it was all perfect!!! =[

^DITTO!

he was awesome; his flip was like WTF! SO HOT! lol;

taegoon is now my new favorite solo artist now. (:

he looks gorgeous! from head to toe is so fine; lol. (:
he doesnt even look like rain or se7en to me at all. lol.
i like his messy hair at the side too. 8D

i have been lurking in this thread ever since he debuted and i must say he is suave when it comes to his dance moves. I also love his Call Me performances/song itself.

Is it me or does his smile remind you of Rain? i saw his battle performance and i thought he should have won

Oh my...his performance was the BEST! It sucks that he loss. But he'll be a winner in my heart His dance was flawless and perfect all the way. I'm suprised his performance began with traditional music - it was beautiful - all his spins and turns was great! This performance is 10/10!

He should've definitely won! ; I know his live singing isn't perfect, but he's been performing quite often lately, and he must be exhausted. Let's give him time =) We should love and support him even if his performances aren't perfect, because that's what fans are for.

I want to vote for Taegoon, but I can't figure out how @_@ Do we need to register? ^^; *doesn't know how to register either*

hi! i'm new to this thread :3

I just saw his dancing and i was like, "OMG he's so good "
even in his music video his dancing's like, amazing (:

hehe i loved his facial expression in the Dance battle when they pulled off that black cape (:
plus, his air flips were fantastic.

i can't believe he lost to kara
i love the latter, but they didn't even do that much dancing !
his perf was pretttty good. wasnt the best of the night, but better than kara :/
eh maybe its cus he's a noob LOL

but he did goood ! i'm proud of him
his smile's so cuteeeee.

I still don't understand how he lost.
He should've have won it fair and square.
I like kara and all but there's no justice in that battle. LOL
But I'm proud of Taegoon.

Taegoon's gonna make it big. I know itttt !

Teagoon Fightingggggggggggggggggggggg

i loveed his performance from Music Core ....he was great

i thought he was cursed at first because he had so many mic problems

i'm happy that the girls were chearing for him

and he was so cute in that gif from the previous page....he was saluting that girl or just waving ?

does he has an official site where we can check his scheduale?
i want to see him in some variety show so we can see his personality

As far as we know, he's finished his January Schedule...He does't have an official site yet but you can check on the forum? for his schedule...You don't need to register to see it.



Go to Mnet.com

Look for the Join link which should be next to the log-in boxes, just on top of the TODAY TOP 7

After doing that, follow these instructions

i don't want to be mean but the girls from Kara all they did was to shake their butt
i mean this was a dance battle not the cutest dance

i hope to see him very soon in more shows

Taegoon <3
when i first saw his debut performance, i didn't like him that much. the next day, i watched his MV. WHUUH! ><; the love for him started to grow more and more. hahahahaha
and then, i watched him flashing his smile on MBC dance battle. i simply died, plus his sexy airflip and dance killed half of me. what pisses me off was, KARA WON INSTEAD OF HIM o__O

^Oh hell!! *nosebleeds* Can he get any sexier? He is killing me here!!! I totally love his hair!
(>.<) *Ignore that comment...seems like his hair is turning me on. (^___^)*
Such a damn sexy picture! *woot* Thanks so much for sharing!!

I really think Tae Goon should've won. *pouts* I think Kara got it because they performed
an old song...probably a famous song too because the original artist is very popular...that's
probably why.

Been lurking this forum for quite some time le, love all his songs!
Just watched that vid, cant believe that Kara won??
Not that i am an anti fan of kara or what, i like kara too, but i prefer his dance over kara's. >x<

^ well i must agree with you~
i like both taegoon and kara
but to compare the both dances~
i thought taegoon will win the battle~~
XD but oh well~

does anyone know his schedule~~

CALL ME - Fan chant!

Taegoon was awesome in the dance battle.
Omg he can pull anything off.
He's cute, sexy, hot and much much more.

Blah he should have won =[

hessss sooooo adorable! rAwr

love his song call me.
he's hot.

I don't know why but when I saw him performing at first I thought it was Hyun Bin (Actor) performing hahaha. XD I was all spazzing and well after that I saw that he was a singer who just debuted! I like him! He can dance and well And is good-looking! I will support him!

more predebut

^ Oh wow. TaeGoon looks VERY different during his pre-debut days. I must say he looks very handsome now compared to before - a good transformation I also notice he likes Rain too =P

I watched taegoon's dance battle with kara and i was suprised when kara won.
It'd probably because they were singing a hit song from before. Everyone was dancing along to the chorus.
Taegoon had some really awesome moves. He should've battled with Rain. That would've been awesome.

He looks so different there...He had quite a transformation.

I think he kind of looks younger with the long hair o_o lol
awesome what a slight difference in your hairstyle can accomplish.
but like hime with longish hair better :3

but I didn't knew that he had a little brother O: and that he likes red roses and winter :'D
LOL Tooniverse? o_o is there really 'Tooniverse' written down? I like this guy more and more
and ... foggy days? o_o okai.
I really like this guy more and more XD

What how could Tae Goon lose with that awesome dance?

Explosion of interest in the new singer Taegoon from Netizens.

Since debuting on MBC Music Core on January 17th, Taegoon, with his elegant suits, charming smile, and cool dance has captured the hearts of people everywhere.

TVXQ member Hero Jaejoong showed support to his close friend Taegoon by appearing in the video for his debut single Call Me. This resulted in Taegoon becoming one of the #1 searched people on search engines.

His first mini album title song Call Me has addictive melodies, sophisticated lyrics, and an electronic dance style produced by Crown J, who has done hit songs such as Fly Boy and Too Much.

Last week he had an incredibly successful debut, and because he's so promising, Netizens expect him to be the best rookie singer of 2009.

Meanwhile, MBC aired the Star Dance Battle on the 25th which Taegoon was a guest on. He had a fantastic stage presence, combined with a powerful dance that attracted everyone.

^ hehe i agree..he could be the next best male rookie this year. when's his next perf? Any news on his upcoming schedule?

Yeah it will be great for him to be the best rookie of the year 2009! I love his dance, wonder why he lost? haha let's not be frustrated by just a dance battle! We all know he won! (in Our hearts ofcourse!) haha

Maybe because he's new?
I thought the hosts were pretty rude to him on the show, but idk.. :/

Anyway here's another predebut picture.. can someone translate the text on this?

the notice is actually not that interesting, talking about that 'this' is taegoon's first fancafe and that you have to level up, and where to level up, and that after you level up to be active and help a lot and such. and some rules (for example about not publicate stuff on other sites *cough*) and to follow rules etc.

Kim Tae Goon
-Kim Tae Goon is dance and dance is Kim Tae Goon.

I love that! As a dancer myself, I can really appreciate that!!

Hahaha, he loves Foggy days! Wow, a unique individual, can't stand foggy days! We can tell that Usher, M, Bi etc influence him from his dances and his presence on stage...

Must have been weird meeting M on the dance battle after he didn't get through the ShinHwa battle thing Xd

It's great he's recieving lot's of attention and love by netizens. I do also wish he would win all the Best Male Rookie Artistes this year. It would be a big accomplishment from him

I'm confident in him =) Wow he'll be performing 3 days in a row huh?

Red roses and winter goes well together. I like foggy days too..just not so foggy that you can't see anything haha

Huh...he likes foggy days~ So mysterious. Hehehe...sexiness...

So I searched for like an hour and I couldn't find a decent HQ scan of the album cover..
and I ended up making my own. (Like I always do =P)

Here's what I made:

I hope this goes to use for anyone else out there who likes nice albumart.
If posting anywhere else please credit Ryoutarou @ soompi.

Sorry for putting my name in there but ppl have stolen my work before x__x
since I've also done various covers for SHINee and Big Bang

^
^ I wonder who TaeGoon is with. His dancer maybe? But he looks adorable in the first picture ^^ Love his sweet smiles It must be really cold then, I hope TaeGoon wore something more than just a suit =P

this guy dancing style looks very familiar to Rain, even some of his gestures...

Not sure if this is what you're looking for.


c: daum + adikkeluangman

So far, his dance and song is cool. I think Call Me had invade my head for few hours already. All the best of him. I hope he will go on with his talent. Not just because he had someone popular in his MV.

Ryoutarou: nice cover! haha better than the original one.

anyway, yes 3 new perfs from him can't wait~

Hey, guys. I heard Taegoon's song "Call Me" and it's really catchy! I've been watching a lot of his live prefs (well, three) and I saw that he lip synced in two of them. Is that going to be a trend for him? :c

Wow, Thanks Ryoutarou, I just love your cover, I prefer it to the original one so I take it without doubt ^^
