Taiwanese boy band pays tribute to Dragon Ball Z

I've heard of this boy band, Lollipop, before but I never quite understood why they were so popular in Hong Kong. (From what I understand, they're not that popular in Taiwan.) But when I caught this clip (which was recorded back in May 2009 for Taiwanese music TV station, Channel V) tonight, I could be either impressed or flabbergasted.

So what are your thoughts on this little tribute here?

I'm in a pretty dark place in my life right now, but the knowledge that I'm not one of these guys has made my day a little brighter. :)

Seriously, these guys are The Full Monty of boy bands. They look like an SNL parody of boy bands.


... good find!

I think I'm gonna start making power-up noises while "floating" on one foot from now on. I'll try it while standing in line at the grocery store or something. :wink:

I still have no idea which character the dude in the striped shirt is supposed to be.

Trunks and 18 are my favorite. This is one of the strangest things I have ever seen. I laughed so hard! :lol:
