Triple S, the new sub-unit of SS501, releases the music video for their latest hit, “U R Man.” Actually, it’s supposed to read “Ur Man” like “I’m ur (your) man,” but when you include one odd spacing issue, Engrish mistakes matter not.
Now that crucial band member Hyunjoong is off pursuing drama interests and slightly less crucial member Jungmin is off doing a musical, the three remaining SS501 boys have tried to amp up the sex appeal by bringing a new manlier image. I’m not sure how successful they are with this, seeing as the song seems to be of the disco-lite variety: full of cheesy choreography, pimp cars and dancing in dark alleyways. Check out the video here:

yawn. what a bore.
first? haha..i hope they do well even without their leader..
dang it..ahh..whatev..
After watching DBSK’s “Mirotic” and “Wrong Number” MVs, I’m not impressed with this one. >_<
parts of the video reminds me of AST1 video.
^DBSK’s songs are better too. =x
I’m not into the “UR Man” song. It’s bleh.
Yay! I wasn’t disappointed.
whatever happen to AST1 anyways????
but i like the chorus of this song
but after dbsk, rain, etc… just doesnt add up
and i’m sorry but the choreograph was horrible
Awesome performance!
They look nice but the song, eh, no me gusta lol
Must TVXQ always come up?!?! Gosh guys chill with the comparisons…even if they are…sorta better right now… >.> Be nice! lmao
Triple S is trying =/
i love the ACKA ACKA rap part x]
no offense, but the song is boring…and their voices are annoying…
Uh maybe it’s just me but Kyujong looks like he’s getting hotter these days. Idk.
O.O
whats with all the comeback artists going for “sex appeal”? first DBSG, then Rain, now these 3? anyways, -.-;
The songs not bad, but MV sucks though. Its like a wannabe of DBSG’s Mirotic. The dark surrounding, the camera angels, the theme..blech. But i like “U R man” the song better than “Mirotic” =\
i personally think its better then Mirotic and at least its original and they are not using the same song as someone else,lol.
scratch what i said, after listening to it for the second time, it got on my nerves. -.-; Dont know why but this song gets annoying after a few times. (it only took two listens for me =.=)
They’re becoming AST1.
zzzzzzzzzzzz
ahh what?! Ur ahh??
I only like the chorus of the song. The rest is pretty forgetable to me. The video is something id expect from DSP …cheap. Whoever directs DSP’s mv’s should get fired. They all look like they were done by the same person.
The perf was very good I thought. The MV could have been better, kind of cheesy. xD
Their performance was good, the MV….kinda typical with the pimp cars and everything. They really like those cars lol. It’s kinda sad if they’re becoming like AST1 since they debuted first. Hmm, maybe I would’ve liked it more if it was actually ALL the members of SS501.
Hmmm…so I’m not the only one who got the ‘AST1 feel’ haha
I like the song more than the video, but it is a tad annoying.
*sigh* how will they survive without Hyunjoong?
Their fans are 100000x times better than DBSK’s fan club.
Their chant is soo much louder and clearer.
THE MV LOOKS CHEAP
What I love about this group are the personalities of each member. They seem so much better and more down to earth than then those other groups. I love watching them on variety shows and I loved watching them when they visit We Got Married. They are so much fun. Like the song. Seem like they are trying to do some type of Spanish dance in this video. I like these guys.
U R man?
i remember hoe MKMF spelled Nobody..
it was..: NO Body..!LOL!
the rest of the album is pretty good…
i like the song “Want it” better…
and kyu joong and hyung joon’s solos are also pretty chill ^^
is it only for me Hyung Joon in this outfit (and with this hairstyle) looks like pimp?! @___@
Song is not bad, kinda old (not retro) style. But, yeah, i like ‘Want it’ more. And only one who i like in SS501 is, of course, Kim Hyun Joong >_>
not bad but of course it’s not the same level as DBSK …
ackk.
no hyunjoong, no SS501 for me ><
the songs actually pretty catchy though:)
people are praising the cheer by their fan club…saying their cheer is better and louder than cassie’s?? but when cassie cheers for the boys people complain that they are too loud and annoying…lol…hypocritical much?
Baby Hyung-joon should leave the group and join TVXQ LOL LOL LOL xD
and the Engrish just. keeps. coming! Thank you, Korean idol bands!
…that song…was lame! LMAO ehhh, SS501 has their hits and misses…this was so a miss. can’t wait to see their leader’s drama!
lol at bringing DBSK up once again, fans and antifans ^^ yeah, when i read “sex appeal” i started thinking about DBSK and Rain as well. It looks like everyone suddenly thinks being sexy sells well
i love it and i love them
stop comparing them to dbsk;; they’re 2 completely different types of groups.
and uh sex does sell, it has been selling for a while
it just suddenly hit korea that’s all.
sounds quite……
sounds like some trot song, i dont know why..
well disspointed, but not suprised.
disapointed***
^ yeah…..
i like THE ONE better
Stop bringing DBsk into this wen obvi were watching a SS501 video.
Comparing groups is lame esp wen their al good friends.
Who cares if their songs r apparently beter >.>
Both groups r talented but i def hv to prefer ss501 to dbsk.
their not even orginal. Their songs now suck <— dbsk
while ss501 r getin more popular and have catchy songs.
^aiwwoo…don’t start the flame now =) calm down…it can’t be help to mention DBSK’s name when what they sell in the music markets are pretty much the same nowadays….its getting boring to watch…
strangely enough, I prefer their “The one” song. Old school boy band genre of music…although people don’t really buy that kind of thing anymore…but surely missed it sometimes…
……… : lol you want people to stop comparing them but what are you saying ? Lol SS501’s cheap fan , just like this MV lol
kyujong owns the other two in sexxeh.
xD
they reaaaally need to change companies. poor guys…i feel bad for all of them. they’re stuck with people who are making crap music that just always seems to miss.
poor poor babies. oh and kyujong is damn hot.
What’s wrong with comparing them with DBSK? They’re not that different from each other.
I always think it’s stupid to compare DBSK with Big Bang.
But DBSK & SS501 are more suitable to compare.
DBSK pwns SS501, sorry. That’s just the way it is.
dude the song is bad. and it sounds like “young man”….
^lol, that’s what I thought too!
No thanks, I don’t want them to be my man. >_< I pass.
Yeah. DBSK >>> SS501. But out of fairness to SS501/Triple-S, this song’s style seems more like Latino pop (think Paulina Rubio) than K-pop.
not bad… but way too boring. kpop needs fresh blood X_X
only kyujong’s parts are good. :/
the kid in the gray suit is awkward as hell. there is no feeling in his dancing and zero sex appeal. they might not be gay but the person they are blindly following direction from might just be gay.
I actually like the song; it has an old school dark pop kind of vibe. It’s pretty catchy after a couple of runs.
^_^
I agree with those you said that SS501 is down to earth; I loved watching them with Park Kyung Lim on the Thank you shows and their Idol World episodes were hilarious.
******
lmfao at the idol comparisons though. It’s like when people compared G.O.D. to H.O.T. and the Sechkies. Totally different feel to each group even within the same genre of music. No comparison.
Comparing DBSK with SS501 is completely logical.
It’s like comparing NSYNC with Backstreet Boys.
They’re both similar in style and whatnot.
Just like NSYNC > BSB, = DBSK > SS501
i like this song. but is still like find a lot better.
i’ve always though of ss501 as a dbsk copycat ever since they debuted…it’s not them just their company likes to copy sm..
kyujong gets sexier with age, haha i thought it was a good ss501 mv
god… look at all the dbsk fans trolling and bashing an ss501 article when no one brought up the dongbangers in the first place.
Ehh, not feeling this song (or the MV, for that matter). Hyungjoon really looks like a pimp with the top, bling bling and tattoo slapped across the deep V, LOL. Kyujong looks great, though, and I like his solo parts. I don’t think they should’ve put so much of the focus on Hyungjoon.
uhm, i just thought the song
sounded a bit ‘a la shinhwa.’
lol >:]
The song is not amazing, but at least they have a lot of fans.
I don’t think it’s too bad. The chorus is pretty good, it’s nice and catchy
My fav parts would have to be Kyujong’s parts, he has a really nice voice, and he keeps getting hotter as he gets older <3
They did pretty well considering they’re missing two main members (Hyunjoong and Jungmin)
It’s okay…
nothing special
sorry but the song just sounds weird to me…too bad the other two arent there anymore.
At first I thought this song was weird, but it really grows on you. I love this song now.
i actually like the song too, though i hate how it starts. ahaha. it’s definitely not one to be taken too seriously, though. like, it couldn’t even dream to be called a ‘great song’ ^^ but it’s catchy and ‘fresh’ enough. i actually have it right after a few altrock/indie songs and i always smile when i get to this song. sudden change of vibe. haha..
the mv and perf.. they look like they’re really trying and putting in the effort. i have a thing for sincere efforts. heh~…
if anything the song has trot underlinings not disco. this is the kind of music they should be doing like their first couple of singles and first album. the stuff they put out before this was poppy crap.
hyunjoong crucial member? whatev. youngsaeng and hyungjoon are my favorites. i could really careless about the others. so this is perfect for me. what’s his name is just filler.
this album is very good, the best the group has put out so they need to just stay with the three til
youngsaeng does his solo work
I really love this song ^^ It grows on you after a while. I love how they all look so mature~ Baby Joon grew up!
And the TVXQ/SS501 comparisons have to stop. IMO, SS501>TVXQ.
Good luck to HyunJoong’s drama and Jungmin’s musical!
Yea,dis song..cheesy
Ottoke?why,there’s way-no-progression in dis group
Kyujong,who looks better day by day(in looks) shud try drama too..lol
