Cho PD's brainchild of two years - Block B - has been earning explosive interest these past couple of weeks, both in Korea and overseas such as South East Asia and Europe. Their teaser, which was released on April 4th, was the oil to the fire that set ablaze the anticipation amongst Korean and international fans. Not only did it rank at the top in search rankings on major portal sites like Nate, but on YouTube and allkpop, the biggest Hallyu portal, as well. News portals in South East Asia have also been focusing on Block B, proving the boys to be one of the most anticipated debuts of the year. A representative of Brand New Stardom commented, "Already since months before, we've been receiving promotional offers in countries like Thailand and Vietnam. We ourselves are quite amazed how they heard of our group already. Cho PD already has plans for a large-scale investor relations in Japan and China well underway. He's been working on construction a consortium and other PT information, but he's been keeping it under wraps, so our office doesn't know anything more than that either." Cho PD himself added, "I have been working with KOTRA and other government agencies in order to prepare an IR that is not often used in the case of the entertainment industry. Plans have been postponed for about a month, but I will be utilizing the opportunity to perfect it even further." The industry is also keeping close tabs on the group, particularly the album and broadcast industry. They've already received a flood of sponsor offers, an exceptional feat for a group that's yet to debut. With less than a week left to go, the spotlight and anticipation proves to be stronger than ever. Block B will be officially debuting on April 14th. Source: News Can
