Our favorite foreign exchange student Se7en is keeping busy with various activities–granted, not the most high profile of activities, but like all foreign exchange students, he deserves an A for effort.
Se7en will perform tonight November 21st at the KoreAm Journal Unforgettable 2008 cocktail/dinner/performance/awards ceremony. The event is hosted by comedian Margaret Cho, and John Cho, Kaba Modern, and Suchin Pak will attend. Tickets are a whopping $250! Let’s put it this way, Margaret Cho, John Cho, Kaba Modern, Suchin Pak, and Se7en all combined aren’t worth $250.
Se7en is also scheduled to perform “Them Girls” in Seattle on December 13th at Fremont Studios Club under the guise of a pre-release party. I wonder if new BFF Lil’ Kim will bother to show up to perform with him.
Additionally, “Your Number”, another song off his no-longer anticipated US album has leaked.
Overall, it sounds like a bunch of mumbling. I could only figure out what he was saying after reading the lyrics. But that only made me laugh out loud.
Girl, I wrote this memo for you
Dang girl, I wish that you knew
That we’re still cool
But your number 2
Tried to play me for a fool
But you’re still number 2
What the freak does that mean? And who continues to write memos so frequently? Did he get bumped up to a corporate employee of Verizon Wireless?
Girl, I had a feeling you were trying to play games with my mind
That’s the reason why I kept some ladies on the side
Se7en, seriously…no one believes you.
For an expert sudoku brain teaser, check out “Your Number” below and see if you can decipher what he’s saying:

….what was that?….
I love him….
but he needs to stop trying to
use slang in so many unnessiary places.
It makes him look like hes trying to hard.
I just hope he comes back to korea.
D<
ciaociao,i seriously dont understand why your a writer here. ALL of your articles critizes all koreans from kpop to the artists themselves. if you hate them so much then whats the point of writing about them? first all the idol groups and now single artists. debuting into any country specially the U.S. is hard enough but you just like to put them down. if your asian then you should be ashamed cause these artists Boa,even….Rain are trying to finally get asian artists more noticed in America and make history which would be easier for all asians.even though am black i think its time for America to see what Korean artists are made of. of course se7en is starting small so he can build up to the top,so you should at least be more supportive.lol,too long of an essay.
Oh se7en just go back to korea. I mean he is of the most proficient esl korean entertainers but that doesn’t make a difference when you aren’t getting any publicity.
why are they having the release party in seattle of all places?! don’t get me wrong, we seattlelites love all sorts of music, but i doubt he has that big of a following there…i would’ve stuck to southern cali or nyc if i were him. what was his management thinking?!!! although, i do want to see him perform live… hahaha.
what i don’t understand is how boa’s already getting all this exposure when se7en after what 2 years? has done nothing…. -_-;; i want him to succeed but really se7en get going! boa’s kicking your ass!
um, just want to say, Your Number has been leaked for a long time now..in fact, I believe one of you better fellow seoulbeats writer has already made a post about it
omg new heights. -THEY’RE- worth $250, I don’t know about some random dancers and djs. except kaba modern, they kick ass too. New Heights, Se7en, and Kaba Modern should just do a show. I’d fly out for that!
that was a diff song of se7en that was leaked.. btw, i love this song. i have a feeling that if he promote this song here in the US that it will do well. it’s like the type of song u always hear on the radio(kind of).
i as a american fan gave up on him
hahahah i love suchin park.
I don’t even listen to music, but LOL you stalk the Se7en thread on Soompi. How LAME!
God you’re a pathetic loser trying to find OLD news. You can’t even translate Korean news so you have to resort to fansites. LOLOLOL LOSER
Old NEWS:
God someone should fire your ass!

to his*
o yay. he’s coming to seattle!!
so basically the girl cheated on him, but all along he was cheating o her. What the hell is up with his lyrics, and he knows that she was cheating on him but he doesnt care because he has ladies on the side. Right is that what he is trying to say and this song he wrote was for her saying he doesnt care because he has other hoes. He has got to work on his song choice his English is good though.
We all know he has the vocal abilities but come on get some better songs cause all if his songs so far are about cheating or wanting to clone himself to get more girls.
And the BoA VS. Se7en Wins over America… STARTS NOW!
I love both of them
But this is fun to watch people compare them the more they make advancements.
-sLaVe
i hope he kick’s boa’s ass.
wow, those lyrics are pretty mediocore. whose writing this crap? is se7en writting it himself. hmmm…. maybe i will have to head out to the seattle performance and see this live.
^Funny, last time I checked most American music lyrics are crap too…
umm… guys. the song has been out FOR A WHILE now -___-”
what do u have against Asians in America…Kaba Modern is sick btw..only if ur writing was half as good as their dancing.
INSTEAD OF MAKING IT A COMPETITION BETWEEN BOA AND SE7EN, WHY DON’T WE SUPPORT BOTH OF THEM??
THEY BOTH NEED ALL OUR SUPPORT!!
THE ASIAN POPULATION ISN’T AS BIG AS HISPANICS, WHITES, BLACKS IN AMERICA… SO WE NEED TO STOP THIS AND SUPPORT BOTH!!!
GEEZUS.
I can understand him just fine. But then again I have been listening to a lot of Engrish songs lately. Via Big bang and BOA. He actually sounds really good. I really don’t like the subject manner much but it will fit into the American market. Some American artists are harder to understand than he is. And yes like many others have said this is old news, sorry.
I miss Se7en. In Korea. It’s been a while since he’s been over there.
Hey at least this song sounds better than “Eat You Up”. I’m not a Boa or Seven fan but I’ve got to say he will probably make it further than Boa if he ever debuts. He needs to step his game up though and get someone who knows how to write better lyrics for his songs. He can sing pretty good and his english sounds excellent.
bwahaha I would want Se7en as a foreign exchange student at my school any day!
*sigh*
he’s going to be labeled a “wangsta”
the thing about Se7en is, no matter how good his English pronounciation is compared to BoA’s, his songs are nowhere as catchy as BoA’s. Yes BoA’s song is catchy, as in ANNOYING-CATCHY but that’s what all hit singles are about isn’t it? Rihanna’s Umbrella is f*cking annoying, WG’s Tell Me, So Hot and Nobody are all f*cking annoying. But they all have that one common factor - it’s CATCHY.
You’ll find yourself humming to it and tapping to it even though it’s f*cking annoying.
and BoA’s promotion is at least going SOMEWHERE. Just last night I tuned into MTV ASIA and lo and behold! They were heavily promoting BoA’s Eat You Up! I couldn’t believe I was watching BoA’s american debut song MV right on my big screen.
you go to america and ask if they know who BoA is and chances are they might say they know. “Oh the Korean girl with a snake’s name singing that annoying song trying to eat the americans up. Yeah I’ve heard of her.” But try asking who Se7en is and chances are they might say, “WHO?! The seven group? WHAT?”
What i’m trying to say is BoA’s promotion is going somewhere, at least. She’s slowly creating a name for herself. But Se7en is nowhere near BoA. And it’s sad really cos I’m a fan of Se7en myself and to see him going down like this is just so painful to watch.
and btw, i don’t know if it’s photoshopped or what but Se7en looking like he’s trying to be Black in his promotion posters is not cool. at all.
isn’t this song kinda… boring??? still prefer them girls’ more, if i have to choose ONLY between these two songs LOL
$250 dollars? Wooow, maybe it’s because Lil’ Kim might show up?
Ugh $250 is so not worth it, I love Margaret Cho and like Se7en but no honey no.
Even Britney’s worst seating ticket don’t cost as much but it’s Britney motherf-ing Spears.
can someone tell me where I can buy Se7en’s album??
in the us?
CIAOCIAO articles are damn LAME.
sorry but all your freaking articles are pathetic.
Just , please stop writing. ==’
I’ve had enough.
@ sdb, You don’t see any promotions about Se7en currently as his management company has decided to debut him at a later date. Boa’s promotion is going “somewhere” because her debut is in a couple of weeks. If you want to talk about recognition, Se7en’s songs have been leaked and featured on prominent and numerous r.n.b and hip hop websites.
Yeah, Boa’s song is catchy but if u have listened to Se7en’s “them girls” his song had an immediate appeal to it. When the snip first appeared on RQM, my brother had his song on repeat for days.
It is quite painful to think that se7en has remained quite dormant but I prefer it that way. I like the fact that he’s taking the time to prepare for his US debut & that he is making improvements in his language skills.
Hrmm and the first picture of Se7en makes him look like a valet boy.
This song reminds me of Justin Timberlake’s “Cry Me a River” mixed with Mikaila’s “So In Love With Two”
Empress80: american producers/writers wrote this.. duh.
i really wanna hear “Money Can’t But Me Love” in mp3 ;[ Teddy makes the best beats.
@opg=g
i didn’t say Se7en’s songs weren’t catchy. i personally like “your number” myself. but you’ve gotta admit. it’s nowhere AS CATCHY AS BoA’s “Eat You Up”.
Se7en has the voice. and yes, his english pronounciation is much better than BoA’s but the songs produced by DarkChild is disappointingly not up to his usual standards.
I heard this song isn’t gonna be on his album anyway. And I don’t think Eat You Up is catchy. I dislike synthesized songs.
Until they reach the Billboard Hot 100, no one can really say who is doing better. Mink and S.Blush (both Koreans) were on the Billboard Dance/Club charts as #1 and #2 a few years ago, but that didn’t mean much. Same with Utada hit #1 on the Dance charts.
Se7en is SOoo cute in that pic..^^
lmao this article made me chuckle!
lurking on soompi much? shenyuepop wannabe I see.
your article is so much fail: fan forum resource + old news.
don’t ever go into journalism, you’re an embarrassment.
Whoa people stop hating on CIAOCIAO hahaha. I couldn’t even distinguish her writing from OK-WECAN or PINKRANGER, so what the flip are you guys on about? Just because she criticized your favourite celebrities, you guys are gonna keep bashing her? Criticizing is what gossip sites DO, man.
^ That’s kind of weak argument there. If writers can say whatever they want, why not the commentors?
Your Number was leaked a while a go…
dude, give credit to Se7en. At least HE has a lot of guts to do this. How about all of you who’s trash talking about him, try releasing an album in South Korea. Same as BoA. They both deserve their fame, not YOU.
corrakun, quit trying to suck up to the writers.
they’re not going to give you more freebies.
i agree with nownow.
Well I think Se7en improved his english a lot. There’s almost no Korean accent~ But yeah, I think he should stop trying hard to use slang I mean, just be himself since that’s what his fans liked in the first place. He’ll catch up with the culture later then it would be more natural ^^ Nevertheless, I’m rooting for him. He has potential…but seriously…the lyrics should change -_-
i nev like any kindof boys band..better if he can play some instruments (guitar,pianos..) n create a good song with better lyrics..lol
i love se7en,
i love his music.
i’m all for him.
Hwaiting, 7!!!!
*..*
I Love SE7EN so all you d**k wads gotta stop complaining>__< He’s going to make it big like RAIN did so STFU all you haters=P
