In the start of the new year of 2011, the competition between male idol groups is already heating up.
While MBLAQ, leading the new generation of male groups like INFINTE, Teen Top and more, is releasing their new album, the original top idol groups like TVXQ and Big Bang are releasing their new albums at the same time. This is also an indication that the music industry, which has been a "woman's world" in recent years, will be blown away by the male groups.
On the 5th, TVXQ released their title track "Why (Keep Your Head Down)" from their special album and the Big Bang sub-unit GD&TOP released 3 title tracks - "High High", "Oh Yeah" and "Knock Out" - attracting a lot of popularity. Some time in January, Big Bang's maknae Seungri will be releasing his solo album.
Before the release of their first full length album, MBLAQ entered the exciting battle with the release of their title song "Cry" on the 3rd. Once "Cry" was released, they have been rising up the ranks of real-time search rankings on music sites like Mnet, Bugs and more, becoming a part of the battle for the top with competitors like TVXQ, Big Bang and IU.
In comparison with the same time frame last year, this is a drastic change as SNSD dominated the music industry with "Gee" and "Oh!" then.
