The difference I noticed from the first MV is that the intro (and throughout the song), there's an extra guitar part playing along.
Compare the two version starting at the beginning of the song, timemark 0:15, to see what I mean =]
Yay for listening to the original version all day?

UPDATE!!
The first MV with the original version of the song was soon after removed by sment.

This version of the song is the version that The Trax use to perform their live performances, with the guitar solo added.
I was also wondering where the solo went in the first MV.

2PM held a fansigning on 27th January in Seoul KangNamGoo MarketO ApGooJung store, and the members shook hands and gave autographs to about 500 fans.

2PM has recently been chosen for the model for MarketO. And to get a glimpse of the 2PM members, about 1000 fans had arrived at the fansigning venue since early that morning.

The 2PM members appeared in casual style. And fans were also seen holding placards with ‘Waiting for Park JaeBum’, ‘2PM is 7 members’ written on them during the event.

Recently there has been speculations about Park JaeBum’s total withdrawal from the team, and many fans present at the fansigning want to relay the message that they will always be waiting for Park JaeBum’s return.

Meanwhile, recently ending their 1st album promotions, the 2PM members are currently focusing on their individual activities like MCing and acting.

G-Dragon (name: Kwon Ji Yong, 23) became famous when he was young due to being a part of "Kiddy Roora." This "Kid Roora" was just like the hit song "An Angel Without Wings", so what kind of thoughts did Kwon Jiyong have from being in the show business so early on?

"I started by being on MBC's 'Bbo Bbo Bbo.' The seat next to Bbomee noona was the king's chair. Ever since I was young I loved to dance so as I danced really well, the noona always let me sit next to her. I guess the 'Roora' management saw me then. While Roora was promoting 'An Angel Without Wings', Kid Roora also wore the same clothes and went on the same concert tour. We weren't great at enunciation but we put out a record full of carols too. (laugh)"

In the afternoon of the 27th (KST), the music video for idol group SNSD's second album title song had 100 000 views when it was released, and it went up to the number 1 spot on GomTV music video charts.

The song "Oh!" has already been released on the 25th, and rose to number 1 on major music sites and it is speculated that the album will also rise to the number 1 spot as well. However, it wasn't just the song, but the performance and visuals with the song and SNSD's known previous various fashion looks that fans were so much more expectant of this music video.

How Oricon counts the Daily Charts

The New Approach

Starting on March 2nd, 2009, the Oricon chart now shows the projected actual sales for the previous day. With the following updates:
* Actual daily sales are collected from the POS System (Point-of-Sale System) of approx. 3,370 stores nationwide (this will be the projected sales you see on Oricon Daily)
* by the end of the week, additional actual sales are also included from: i) another 700 stores that fax in their weekly sales results; ii) website sales; iii) sales from promotional events..etc.
* Therefore, when the weekly sales figure is released, the total projected sales per Oricon Chart =/= total final sales

Eunhyuk: Leeteuk, when was it, that you felt you were very short and small?
Leeteuk: The year when we were having Happy (SJ-H) activities, we went to a volley ball court once, and as Super Junior’s leader, I walked in full of confidence. Once I saw the handsome male volley ball players, I couldn’t lift my head. 193…… 198……
Eunhyuk: You looked like a dwarf.

SNSD's 2nd album's title song's Music Video was released today.

In the SNSD MV, two concepts were shown, one being the concept of cute and very lively cheerleaders.

While watching the music video, the interests of audiences got heightened by the numbers written on the individual members uniforms. SNSD presented two kinds of cheerleader outfits and people wondered what the numbers of each member represented.

Four member boyband 2AM has made a comeback with their mini album titled "Won't Let You Go Even if I Die." They have shown their comedic side in 2009 by starring in various variety shows but they show a different, sophisticated side of them onstage when they perform their tear-jerking songs. In only two days of the song's release, they have swept the music and mobile charts and also earned the nickname "All-Kill Singers."

The content of 2AM's new album differs from the others. They have moved past their producer JYP's music style and met with producer Bang Shi Hyuk to explore new music.

Prior to this, 2AM's leader Jo Kwon said "Even though the song's not produced by JYP, we still want to hear that the song is still '2AM style' since we sung it." The different style of the music allowed the four people's harmonies to become stronger and their solo skills have greatly improved.

Changmin said "This album will help us find 2AM's unique colors so we put forth our best effort to show people our greatest charms. In the past, we only focused on singing ballad-type songs so we wanted to show people we could easily digest different genres of music- we had to sing another person's song. In our new album, we have included a few upbeat songs you can easily dance to, so part of me was very satisfied with that. I think that I need to show off my skills more; I want to be known as more than just an idol."
