fans storming hotel rooms or camping out at 4:00 a.m. for their general admission seats wasn't enough indication, K-Pop officially hit New York City this weekend.October 23 marked the first performance of an Asian pop group in Madison Square Garden with the SMTown Live '10 World Tour. In previous years SMTown, a South Korean entertainment company, has put on the popular tour but never ventured to America. This New York stop follows successful shows in Los Angeles, Paris, Toyko, Shanghai and Seoul as part of the 2010/2011 run. That L.A. performance at The Staples Center was a sell-out landing the show at No. 9 Billboard's Boxscore Grosses that week with 15,015 tickets sold.The sold-out showcase brought out some of Korea's biggest pop acts, including solo stars BoA and Kangta, girl groups Girls' Generation, f(x), male groups SHINee, Super Junior, and male duo TVXQ.If the massive roars of the sold-out show were any indication, everyone had a great time at the first -- and most likely not last -- major Korean pop show at Madison Square Garden.

Leeteuk emerged from the van first, followed by the rest of his members. Their years of experience in front of the cameras gave them a look of ease, as they stopped to chat here and there despite being crushed by fans from not only Korea, but overseas as well.
It was the early morning, and some of the members looked tired, but they didn’t forget to provide ample fan service for those fans who trekked all the way to the airport. Some smiled, waved, and bowed before disappearing behind the doors.
The keyword for the boys’ fashion was ‘casual chic’, with light jackets paired with jeans.
