B2ST, 2NE1, INFINITE, miss A, Jang Geun Suk, and SISTAR welcome YouTube Malaysia

Earlier today, YouTube officially launched their 42nd country official local site in Malaysia at http://www.youtube.com.my/

YouTube’s official blog wrote,

“While YouTube has already been available in Malaysia’s most widely spoken languages — Bahasa Malaysia, Chinese, and English — having a Malaysia-specific homepage can now deliver the most relevant videos for Malaysians as well as make it easier to highlight great content from our local partners such as KRU Studios… In the last few years, Malaysians have shown a gift for creating video hits. You may have seen the guy who proposed to his girlfriend using Internet memes. Then there’s singer and ukelele player Zee Avi, who posted a few videos on YouTube in 2007 and ended up signing to Jack Johnson’s Brushfire label. Meanwhile school teacher Cikgu Shida has mimed her way across tons of popular songs to become a sudden Internet star in her homeland.

With YouTube now open in Malaysia, we are excited to see more and more Malaysians join the YouTube community. And hopefully this will also mean the world can more easily discover the amazing culture and talent that exists in Malaysia today.”

To commemorate this opening, a special video was created and features some of Malaysia’s top artists including Yuna, Mizz Nina, Joe Flizzow, and Tenderfist. Additionally, after looking at the analytics and seeing the popularity of K-pop in the country, some of the Top K-pop / K-drama stars including B2ST, 2NE1, INFINITE, miss A, Jang Geun Suk, and SISTAR welcomed Malaysians to YouTube Malaysia.

SHINee, B2ST, U-KISS, SISTAR & more perform at ‘Invincible Baseball’ concert

KBS‘s ‘Invincible Baseball‘ recently opened up a concert to raise funds for their ‘Ballpark of Dreams’ project.

The ‘Ballpark of Dreams’ project began last December, but was never completed because of a lack of funds.  To raise the rest of the funds and to ensure its construction, the members of the show got together for the first time in nine months.  They invited every star they knew to perform at the event in an effort to attract more visitors.

In the end, idol stars like SHINee, Norazo, K-Will, Mario, Kim Joon, 45RPM, SISTAR, B2ST, U-KISS, and DJ DOC showed up to perform for their friends for free.  Yes24.com had also participated in the event by selling tickets and shipping them out, as well as covering all related costs on their end.

PD Choi Jae Hyung revealed, “The singers all lent their support to the meaning of this project.  Although only two to three songs were shown by each artist in the broadcast, they each performed at least five each.  They truly did all they could.  The profits made from the concert will go towards the construction of the baseball field.”

Check out some of the performances below!
