We’ll be keeping tabs on this event in case YoonMiRae is added to the line up. We suggest fans buy tickets asap if they want a chance at seeing any and all members of MFBTY.

Hyundai Card has partnered with MFBTY to create an intimate series of music discussions at their new Hyundai Music Library. The large collection of both Korean and American LPs is a musician’s dream, where LPs have nearly died and reminiscing past music is a rarity.
In a whopping 30-min episode, MFBTY are asked to discuss their childhood idols and guilty pleasure songs that defined their younger years. Their eyes light up as they lip-synch and goofy dance to Lenny Kravitz, MC Hammer, Gwen Stefani, and Def Leppard.
Though the hip-hop pioneers could not complete the episode without talking about 90s hip-hop, where Tiger JK became excited talking about Wutang Clan, Nas, Biggie, and Tasha’s favorite, 2pac.
A special bonus: Tiger JK calls Illionaire’s Dok2 mid-session.
The March issue of Women’s Focus (여성중앙) put powerful women, particularly famous mothers, in the spotlight. Naturally, YoonMiRae was included, and her photos clearly show she’s more than an average mother.
Donning a fierce afro, MiRae shines in colorful outfits complimenting her figure, while at times getting sexy and revealing some leg. For a minute, we forget she’s a laid back, easy going woman, who just happens to play the role of mom during the day. All we see is the most influential female in Korean hip-hop.
Women’s Focus magazine will release episodes from behind the scenes starting March 5th, 9:40PM KST. Check the preview below.
While we at DT MFBTY INTL traditionally deliver gifts via social media, we wanted to give MFBTY’s Bizzy something different for his big “9th” birthday. We know our Leap Year boy is still growing, so we went for stuff he could touch, smell, and most importantly, EAT.
When we put out the call on our social media outlets, we encouraged fans to send stuff that MFBTY could not find in Korea. We were asked what Bizzy’s hobbies were, his favorite food, what he likes to wear, and the results were pretty amazing.
Some of Bizzy’s gifts included:
weighted boxing gloves from a Texas fan
a box of Twinkies (also from Texas)
Rooster Sirarcha sauce bottles
orange Tic Tacs (his weakness)
Guyabano and Biis from Brazil
Siraracha potato chips
artwork and letters
Reese’s Pieces packs
a handwoven hat from California
a hat, sweatpants, and snacks from us
Feel Ghood Music filmed the whole reveal, and in between you can hear MFBTY being full dork and cracking jokes on each other. Tiger JK does not make a physical appearance because he was too busy playing witty cameraman.
Supposedly, Bizzy got greedy at first and brought the entire box home with him, but after some pressure, brought back some goods to share (LOL!).
Check the video for the full reaction.
Thanks to all the fans and Drunken Tiger MFBTY INTL staff who submitted!

In the March issue of Elle Bride Korea, 13 couples, including Yoon MiRae and Tiger JK, shared their romantic love stories as well as did a photoshoot just in time for the 130th anniversary of Tiffany Jewelry’s Setting Ring.
Tiger JK was seen wearing a clean, crisp white shirt, with Yoon Mi Rae donning long braids covered by a wedding veil. They both wore gold watches and matching jewelry to display their hip-hop royalty status.
When asked about why they did not hold a formal wedding ceremony (they did a small, laid back one with friends and family), they answered, “Rather than throwing a lavish event mainly focused on pleasing other people’s eyes, we put importance in living with laughter, with each other.”Their interpretation showed the true meaning of marriage.
Although they’ve been married for more than 9 years (together for 13!), Tiger JK & YoonMiRae act just like newlyweds – sharing the happy, sad, and tough times with each other and growing with one another.
Other couples such as Sean & Jung Hye Young, and Steve J & Yoni P, will be featured in the March issue of Elle Bride to celebrate the 130th anniversary of the Tiffany Setting Ring.
Child reality shows are seen as a risk for TV networks, but throw in a power couple like YoonMiRae and Tiger JK and worry be gone!
MNET’s “We Kid (aka We Sing Like a Kid)” hopes to find the next child star by challenging them to perform new children songs written by famous mentors. The lead coaches include Tiger JK, actress, Park Bo Young, and actor, Yoo Yun Suk.
Each coach also has their own team of co-mentors and producers, and naturally Tiger JK’s include wife, YoonMiRae, and partner, Bizzy.
During the premiere episode, Yoon MiRae is brought to tears by a young contestant, Oh Yeon Joon. Although Yoon is considered the level headed member of MFBTY, Oh’s rendition of Pocahontas’ “Colors of the Wind” was enough to make her cry over a children’s song. Oh was naturally chosen, and chose Park Bo Young as his mentor.
However, Oh wasn’t the biggest shock to Tiger and Yoon MiRae. Six-year-old, Lee Ha Rang created his own unique version of Zico and Mino’s, “Okey Dokey.”
The energized performance had the judges and audience alike on their feet and dancing. When asked about why he chose to rap, Lee Ha Rang responded, “Rap is an expression of the mind. That’s what I like about it.”
Most assumed that Lee would choose Tiger JK as his mentor, but every jaw fell to the floor when he chose Yoo Yun Suk. When asked why he chose Yoo over Tiger JK, Lee replied, “I just think his team is better. I was going to choose Tiger JK, but I changed my mind. Sorry!”
Tiger JK jokingly stated that Lee’s choice bruised his ego enough that he’s not willing to do another album.
glam look styled by JK’s sister, Jamie SuhWe heard fan buzz of Tiger JK & YoonMiRae hanging in LA, but were met with surprise when they were seen in a limo glammed up and heading to the Grammys with the likes of legendary singer/songwriter, Yoon Jong Shin, and DJ Soulscape. The invite to the exclusive event came from a regular sponsor of the pair, Hyundai Card.
Ready to go to The Grammy’sTiger JK seemed to have the most fun bonding with fellow pioneer, Yoon Jong Shin.
Tiger JK’s and YoonMiRae’s appearance at The Grammy’s came perfectly timed
before the latest announcement, of Yoon’s newest OST Single, “Always” which was released February 18th as part of the soundtrack for “Descendant Of The Sun.”
When We Kid announced Tiger JK would be one of 3 main mentors to young performing dreamers, fans were already intrigued that a hip-hop god was adding his magical touch to the show.
But the fun didn’t end there.
The latest teaser for We Kid revealed that JK would bring all the members of MFBTY with him as well as FX’s Amber. Amber collaborated with JK & Bizzy for a special stage performance in December, but the three clearly had a great bonding experience.
The first full episode airs February 18th. Check the teaserbelow.
The producers of “We Kid (We Sing Like A Kid)” have announced that Tiger JK will make a guest appearance.
“We Kid” invites famous personalities to write and sing songs with children. After speaking with JK, the producers were in awe how JK’s fierce on stage persona reverts to a loving father when it comes to his son.
“It’s very clear that JK’s decision to appear on the show was influenced by his son,” one staff member commented.
Staff and fans alike are hoping Jordan and mom, YoonMirae, will join JK on the show.
Feel Ghood Music released the full YoonMiRae “This Love” MV just 20 minutes ago, and we were so not ready for it. YoonMiRae is seen standing alone in multiple outfits, taking on the different roles she’s been called (queen, beauty, serenity, etc.). However, it’s that piano and accompanied sweet vocals that leave us in the dust. That bridge mid-song… yeah, you might need a minute.
