H.O.T was huge in their day, as was Shinhwa. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hatthe.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':weeeh:' /> Neither had the same level of international fame (no Kpop group really did back then), but these are groups girls used to threaten to commit suicide over. In the grand scheme of things, it probably won't be much different. [/quote]
It's the level of international fame that separates DBSK from H.O.T... obviously, like you said, H.O.T (or Shinhwa, but I'm not counting them since they technically ARE still together...) didn't have as much international fame. Thus, they had a smaller fanbase, statistically - H.O.T was big for their day, but they're small(er) when you compare them with contemporary groups.
It's not so much whether girls will threaten to commit suicide over the group if DBSK breaks up (they will), it's more like the sheer number of them that will. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hatthe.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lmfao:' />
... ANYWAY. How many songs do they generally get to sing for Kouhaku? The reason I ask is because Jaejoong & Yoochun's little mini-single thing sold quite well, so I'm wondering if they'll split (
irony!) to perform the songs from there.
' /> The guests practically didn't interact with each other and for me that was the best part of every year I've watched.
