1) DUSTIN (더스틴) is a Kpop boy group that debuted on January 6th, 2020 with the single ‘Burn‘, under LPA Entertainment. On May 24, 2021, their disbandment was announced. However, on December 26, 2021 it was announced that the group will be active again. The current line up consists of: Siu, Mini, Win, Lake and Seunggi.
2) Dustin the Turkey is a popular character on the RTE children's programme, The Den, since the 1980s. He has lasted for so long as he appeals to both children and adults.
He makes appearances outside of The Den, including an annual appearance on The Late Late Show Toy Show special at Christmas where he makes fun of the show's regular host Pat Kenny, as he did with the previous host, Gay Byrne. More recently he has turned his attention to other Irish television personalities, such as Eddie Hobbs, Ryan Tubridy and Derek Mooney. A surprisingly provocative character, while he has toned it down in recent years Dustin would often make some insulting remarks about various Irish celebrities and the services provided by RTÉ, and would say a lot of 'dodgy' things about politics and their practises that sometimes made one wonder how he got away with it. Insults targeted at County Leitrim came particularly thick and fast.
In September 2005, after 18 years, Dustin 'left' The Den and got his own show, Dustins Daily News.
He has released several albums usually to raise money for well known Irish charities.
These albums have featured backing vocals from many Irish stars including Bob Geldof and Boyzone. Many of his songs are parodies of either folk songs or well known chart hits from across the decades.

Don't block the telly with the size of your belly.
Don't hokey, don't kokey, don't listen to smokey.
Go 'round to next door for a bit of karaoke.
Don't be mean, eat the coffee cream.
There's your Auntie Jean, looking at the Queen
Don't start, don't stop. Your Granny's throwin' up.
Get a mop ye pup, she's been on the sup.
Don't shimmy, don't shake, pick the icing off the cake.
Don't wake yer ma too early by mistake.
Don't wait up for Santy. Use that hanky,
you'll get socks from your Auntie.
Stop that hanky-panky.
Don't forget the batteries are not included
Santy brought the toy now ye better use it.
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
Don't shout, don't pout, don't spout from your mouth.
Don't pull at the tree, are ya listenin' to me?
Don't eat yellow snow. Ask any Eskimo.
Hey Joe. Ho-ho-ho.
Don't forget to plug out the lights,
Do it all again tomorrow night.
And...
Don't ate turkey
Don't ate turkey
Don't ate turkey
Don't ate turkey
Don't ate turkey
Don't ate turkey
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
I feel loved. I love Christmas.
The lyrics of Dustin's song 'Numb' are a humorous and satirical take on the holiday season, advising listeners on what they should and shouldn't do during Christmas. The first verse encourages listeners to avoid complaining and not block the television with their belly. The second verse warns against engaging in hokey or smokey behavior and instead suggests going to karaoke. The third verse reminds the listener to be kind and eat the coffee cream, all while poking fun at watching the Queen on television. The fourth verse urges the listener to clean up after their Granny and be careful not to wake up their mother too early. The fifth verse advises against eating yellow snow and reminds listeners to unplug their lights.
The refrain "I feel loved. I love Christmas," is repeated throughout the song, making it clear that despite the playful mockery of some holiday traditions, the singer does, in fact, enjoy Christmas. The song's silly lyrics and upbeat tempo create a lighthearted and entertaining mood that is perfect for spreading holiday cheer.
The song was released in 2008 in Ireland and quickly became a hit during the holiday season. It was performed by comedy puppet act Dustin the Turkey, who was a popular character on Irish television in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The song was written by Darren Smith and Simon Fine, and its music video features Dustin and his puppet friends singing and dancing, all while wearing festive Christmas sweaters.
