Show Notes
It's time once again for a deep dive! This time we jump into the 2nd gen boy group credited with kicking in the door for Korean boy groups in Japan, SS501! Meet the 5 members and tackle a similar-name challenge before diving into the short 5 year timeline of the group. With a humble start at a small company and a whole bunch of best newcomer awards, learn about their breakthrough in Japan and how the drama Boys Over Flowers comes into play. Then, we wonder what might have happened if this group stuck around as long as their counterparts. Top it all off with a viewing of their final music video. Let us know what you thought of SS501!
