Mighty Mouth, Golf-Mike showcase album in Thailand

Korean hip-hop duo Mighty Mouth and Thai idol group Golf-Mike showcased their joint project album over the weekend.

The two groups, who are the first singers from Korea and Thailand to release a record together, performed songs from their new album at Golf-Mike's concert held at Studio Lasal in Bangkok on Saturday, said an official at Mighty Mouth's agency 101 Entertainment on Monday.

The album contains two new tracks they recorded together including a song titled "No Matter" and hit songs by each group.

The two groups will move back and forth between their countries to promote their album which will be available online in Thailand starting today and is set for a release in Korea in January next year.

Mighty Mouth, who debuted last year, placed several of their songs atop music charts. They are known for collaborating with Korea's top stars for their album -- actresses Yoon Eun-hye, Han Ye-seul and idol group Wonder Girls leader Sun are just a few among the various celebrities who have featured for songs on their album.

Pop duo Golf-Mike have received over a dozen awards since their debut in 2005 and have also released albums in Japan and Korea. They have also pursued acting careers and own a fashion brand.
