    A K-Pop Sensation Plays Letterman Ladies' Generation is carrying out on CBS's "The Late Show With David Letterman" tonight, the most recent inroad by K-pop into the U.S. market.

SM, which handles Girls' Generation, arranged a Madison Square Garden concert in October that offered out. In November, Big Bang, a boy band, took the "World Wide Act" award at MTV's Europe Music Awards, while MTV Iggy, which concentrates on music from outside the U.S., called Korean group 2NE1 its "Best New Band in the World.
