KBS‘s ‘Music Bank‘ aired their Christmas special this week, which included four awesome stages from B1A4, Dal Shabet, A Pink, and Boyfriend.
On December 23rd, these four rookie groups paid homage to their legendary seniors by performing covers of their best hits. Boyfriend performed H.O.T.‘s “Candy“, Dal Shabet covered S.E.S‘s “I’m Your Girl“, A Pink sang Fin.K.L.‘s “Forever Love“, and finally, B1A4 delivered Sechskies‘ ”Couple“.
Ever since their debut, they’ve been dubbed as the ‘Kim Hyun Joong twins’. In fact, before they were singers, the boys guested on an SBS program, whose panelists pointed out that the boys looked very similar to the
SS501 star. Kim Hyun Joong himself acknowledged that the twins did look like him, which drew even more interest from netizens and viewers alike.
During a recent interview with enews, Kwangmin and Youngmin remarked that those who felt they resembled their senior were “too kind“. “We saw him recently on a music program, and he was awesome. We thought to ourselves that we wanted to be like him in the future,” they said.
The twins continued, “Kim Hyun Joong is someone with a very strong aura, as well as a great stage presence. We want to follow in his footsteps, being loved and acknowledged not only in Korea, but overseas as well.”
The two admit that they’re “still lacking in a lot of ways“, and that they continue to receive dance and vocal instruction from time to time. They will always work hard to develop as an artist. Perhaps in time, they’ll get to see the day where their juniors will cite Kwangmin and Youngmin as their mentors.
Meanwhile, Boyfriend is actively promoting their new song, “Don’t Touch My Girl“.

Rumors have been going around that rookie group Boy Friend will be returning to the stage very soon. It's been said that the group recently recorded their comeback teaser as well as the music video for the title track. Apart from that, some members of the group have also been seen with a new haircut.
Boy Friend debuted with their first self-titled single in May of this year. After teasing the fans with "Let's Get It Started", debuting with "Boy Friend" and a round of follow-up promotions with "You & I", this young group gave away the spotlight to their labelmates SISTAR for their newest round of promotions.
While it was rumored earlier this summer that Boy Friend would be making their comeback in December, it seems we might be able to see them back on stage pretty soon.
