Anyone watch any of them before? I'm trying to get a hold of Paris by Night 81 and haven't had any luck.

I prefer Asia over PBN. But in PBN 81, I heard that they'll have three Korean Singers. I just forgot who.

[Rosencrantz]

Why on earth did they put 3 korean singers in? It seemed very out of place...Everyone was just politely clapping

Edit - It was jeon hye bin, kim jong kook, tae kyung im. i have no idea who they are

[firelogic]

I only recognized Im Tae Kyung from the little trailer I saw. I'm just trying to find it for my gf.

[xvi3txl0v1ngx]

jeon hye bin is singing 2 AM on PBN, Kim Jong Kook is singing 'One guy' and Im Tae Kyung is singing 'Love will throw away love'. I might be mistaking about weither Jong Kook is singing One guy or the other song.

This is Kim Jong Kook



I got no idea who is Im Tae Kyung.

The title for PBN 81 is "Music Without borders." Music in that dvd are French, American, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese (duh), and England (?). Anyway, the 3 korean singers were invited since they were touring the U.S. during that same time.

Here is a link to one of the performances in PBN 81

The people that saw the concert didn't see the korean acts. The Korean acts were performed seperately and then added into the dvd to make it look like they did.

They invited three korean singer to the show
the first korean song was pretty good n the rest just pain boooring!
oh yeah i love minh tuyet song
it was pretty catchy song

[Babigrl]

i didn't like this one at all the 81 it has korean ppl which is cool but still it was BORING

[la_deese]

^^
i like the minh tuyet song too
m kinda addicted to it rite now
I also like the part where there was one man playin the violin n another playin sum old instrument
that was really fun

[KooZyAnn]

What was up with the swimming scene in Nhu Loan's perf? That was so random.

[arashi]

I stopped watching those awhile ago, but when I Did watch, I prefered PBN - which was laughable, but as my mom would say, "This is actually a pretty good standard for Vietnamese videos."

[jennnayx81]

my mom would always watch PBN ... one of my friends attended the one of the tapings. she also saw the lady host (dunno her name) at the gym and said she looks HIDEOUS without make-up O_O

my mom also watches van son (i think that;s the name?) ... but it's more skits than music.

i can't watch PBN sometimes b/c some of their cover songs r soooo bad

[Ida]

Considering past PBN's standard, this video was quite disappointing. I don't mind having Korean singers featured on the video because it has a purpose. Since "Music Without Boundaries" is the theme, why not make use of the current "Korean Wave" hitting both Vietnamese in VN and United States? They have to do what sell best.

When I said "disappointing", it was meant to be for the whole thing in general.

[Shellae]

Oh? Korean singers eh? Gonna bug my mum to borrow this from her friend now. ^^

Paris By Night is okay. Asia is okay too. And.. .Van Son is okay as well.
All have good points and bad points.

Seeing other opinions on this.. I'm wondering if it's worth the watch or not. Ah well.. just for Korean perfs then. haha..

Random note, my cousin knows the lady host (don't know her name either) of Paris by Night and her husband (who sometimes hosts for Asia). And yes, she doesn't look that pretty without makeup.. and she's TINY!

[crazylush]

The host's name is Nguyen Cao Ky Duyen....and yes, she needs to eat! She looks like she has no muscle on her arm! hehehe I checked out the korean performances of JHB and KJK on youtube, not bad! I'd rather watch them than some other performaces on PBN these days.

[autuymnrain]

i saw it for the korean performers too. and to be honest, i didnt know about them, are they really big because the MC's kept raving about it. i know te girl, but the guys, uh...

[SimplyKel]

^ i totally agreed with you! the mc somewhat exaggerated a bit
when she introduce them i'm like huh?? who the hell is that!

[DVAYN]

I only saw the 1st disc. At 1st im like Bad ass !! Hye Bin & Jong Kook (didnt know the other guy) Then i got to thinking and im all,,hmmm most of the people that are watching this are vietnamese how would they act on the 4-5 minute of korean singing ? I kept thinking of that while the the korean singers sing, and it just made me laff, thinking of how the vietnamese audience's face will look like listening to that. Hye Bin's 2 AM was good, my mom even thought so. I liked Jong Kooks One Man but ehhh i guess other people thought it was boring.

They should add hip hop korean singers in there like Hye Bin, cause since u cant understand them, u can still watch them dance, but whatever.

[Bananas]

Overall, PBN81 was okay. Some songs were good and others were...well not so good ". Minh Tuyet's song was good and the instruments used were kool. haha. but it was weird how the stuck in 3 korean singers in there..not to mention..one after the other. The funnie thing was that the female Korean singer got a big picture on the cover whie the two dudes only got two tiny boxes. haha. I thought that was interesting to see.
