[08.09.13][News] Who is 2008 Hottest UCC Star ?


If New York Times (NYT) has "Man of the Year" and "You" selection every year, nowadays, with UCC (User Created Contents), you can now be living in the digital world and have the right to create your own "Man of the Year".

UCC is not only an open and free entertainment channel that gives users the wings to fly up their creation, but also an exceptionally powerful promoting tool. It has become the trend setter of Korean music industry.


So who would be this year UCC "Man of the Year" ?


"Junstin Jinberlake", "Uhm Gin Yoo", and "Koo Ri Ring" are the current three Hottest UCC Stars.

The fastest rising star JunJin with various musical and performing activities has gained such a huge popularity, especially within internet community. Remember when he first started promoting his solo album's title track "Wa", the choreography was edited by some UCC members and soon became a hot parody, which therefore led the creation of nickname "Junstin Jinberlake". The singer is also the inspiration of many music, dance parodies, and comic books (cartoons).

The second one J-Squad "DISCO" Uhm Jung Hwa with the costumes and the hairstyles similar to Dragonball Z Uhm Gin Yoo has also attracted UCC interest.

In addition, Techno King Gu Jun Yup or "DJ Koo" was also called by netizens "Koo Ri Ring" due to his daring antics.

Other images, songs, and music videos that also gain popularity among netizens can be listed such as Wonder Girls "So Hot", Movie ET, Lee Hyori "U-Go-Girl", and the recent MV of Lee Hyun Jin "Kiss me Kiss me" also starring JunJin.

The end of this year is coming and netizens are readily voting for their own "Man of the Year".
