Kpop New Release: Got7 "FLY" MV

Anyeong-haseyo! :)

If you are a fan of Got7, then you probably know this already & have seen the video. BUT in the case that you don't follow them, I would just like to share their carrier single for their new mini album. I love that this one is lighter than their previous song "If you do". 

ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF THE LYRICS:

(based on the MV translation)

 

Oh ohh I wanna fly baby fly with you

(Jackson) Aye are you happy? I sure am yeah
Every morning I wake up it feels like a dream~
Like the brilliant sun is shining just for me

Today, like always, my day starts with you

(Bambam) Do you sleep well at night?

Sometimes I wake up coz I can’t believe it's true (hey)
You know what it mean, feeling scared sometimes

I run without looking back and here I am again in your arms

Chorus: 

(JB) You are my comfort, everyday I pray I pray
You are my comfort zone above the sky

Wanna wanna fly up and over

Let me hear you say
 

(Youngjae) We’re gonna fly, fly
Wanna fly with you in my arms, will you go with me girl

We’re gonna fly, fly
You & I, our dreams are right here blazing inside me girl

  Fly fly our time is like sunshine after the rain
Fly fly shining brightly on you at the end of the tunnel
 

 (Mark) Why are you so afraid to be loved
I'm right by your side what are you afraid of

Though our love is ordinary, the value is immeasurable you hear me?

It's like flying in the sky feeling like I might fall any minute

(Yugyeom) But I will go higher, wanna soar straight up
Don't know what's at the end until we get there

So don’t let go, hold on tight

I will light up my heart, I will burn burn it up for you
Among the countless stars
You you you are in my arms

(Junior) Oh oh oh oh oh I just wanna be
I just wanna be with you
I just wanna be with you

 

I hope you all enjoy this great song! It's kind of hard to type the translation from the video but it's worth it haha. I'm just not sure who sung the chorus, if it's JB or Youngae.. but the rap part is alternated by Jackson & Mark I think =)

 

First impression: We got Married Jang Wooyoung & Park Se Young (2Young Couple)

It has been a long time since I have watched We Got Married. I actually stopped watching the show after the 3 original couples of season 4 left. I'm not actually interested in the new ones so for how many months I didn't bother with the show. Last month, they have announced that Jang Wooyoung of 2PM will be replacing Taemin & Naeun and it really created the buzz I needed to be interested again hehe. I am a 2PM fan & Wooyoung has a really fun & energetic personality so it would be nice to see him in a variety show interacting with a girl. Plus, there would probably be more 2PM appearances every now & then as guests so that would be great. 

He got paired up with the actress Park Se Young. I have watched her in Faith (click for my review) and I loved her character in that drama. She's so pretty and soft spoken so I am so psyched to see how the two will interact with each other.

 

There have only been 4 episodes so far and, like always, I watch the English subbed videos @ Kshownow since they sub the fastest (new episodes w/subs are posted every Monday) & the quality is always great. 

After 3 episodes, I think this is a good match! They have so many likes in common but is still different in personality. I also liked the fact that they only have a 1 year age gap so there's no such thing as a "noona" feeling like usual. I really would prefer it if Wooyoung is the older one but it's not much of a big deal this time. 

I am looking forward every week to see more of them. I just hope We Got Married PD won't butcher this couple like the others. The 1st 3 seasons are still the best because the couples have time to grow & know each other better unlike in Season 4 were in they just stay together for a few months. I hope everything will go well *crossing my fingers*

Do post in the comment if you have watched this couple already or if you are as excited as I am that another 2PM member will be part of the show coz it means more appearances of the group :)

Until next time! Keep safe :)

Thank you!

Kpop Update: F(x) "Rum Pum Pum Pum"

F(x) is back after their 1 year hiatus. Yay!!  I really don't get why SM Entertainment don't showcase them more often. Anyway, they are back with a brand new single called "Rum Pum Pum Pum". Their MV came out late last night and I was really excited about it because I love all the songs of F(x).

Watch the video first before reading my reaction :)

First off, I love the MV! It's kinda like a mixture of Pinnochio and Electric Shock which makes it look cool. I didn't even care that it's the usual SM boxed videos because the girls really looked great in this one. I'm even thinking of recreating their makeup look. Krystal and Luna shined in this video the most and I really liked their hair colors. Victoria is still as gorgeous as ever while Sulli still looks cute. Amber looks pretty but I just wish they put her in pretty clothes. Why does she have the worst outfit always? She can still look pretty while maintaining her boyish image, SM just needs to find good stylist.


Also, I just wish they distributed the exposure equally among the members because there's too much of Krystal here. I know she's beautiful and probably the most popular member and that it's for promotions BUT this is a group MV so they shouldn't focus on her if it's not her turn. Be fair SM! The other members should shine too!  

Now, on the song, it definitely doesn't have the "Love at first hear" effect. It is the type of song that will grow on you and will like after listening to it a couple of times. I believe I needed to hear it for at least 6x before I started liking it which made me a little sad. All their previous songs are way way better than this and I have liked all of them since the first time I heard them until now. Rum Pum Pum Pum is kinda lacking something to make me say "wow!" but I will still download it because I'm an F(x) fan and I will still support them. I just hope their next song would be better :)

RATING: 3/5 - 

The song is just okay for me. You need to listen to it a couple of times before you start liking it because it is a type of song that needs getting used to.



Thanks for dropping by!

Fan Girl Moments: 2PM and CN BLUE Live in Manila 2013

As you all know, I'm a Kpop fanatic and I would definitely not miss a chance of seeing my favorite groups if ever they will have a concert here in the Philippines. I know that the life span of a Kpop group, on average, is less than 5 years so I don't want to risk it that they might not be coming back here again so I need to grab the chance as I can. I am also always hoping that I do have enough budget for a concert ticket whenever one of them is coming.

These last 3 years have been very good to me especially as a Kpop fan. A lot of groups (and even actors) have been coming here in our country to either promote or perform in a concert and I believe the list will keep on growing as a lot of these concerts have been almost if not sold out. 

The last 2 Kpop groups who had a concert here were 2PM (March 2, 2013) and CN Blue (June 15, 2013). I have attended both of these concerts and those nights were really very memorable for me. I had come with my sister and we were so glad we did go because the performances were spectacular! They really go all out :)

WHAT TIME IS IT? 2PM LIVE TOUR

 

Highlights of the night:
- I rode a double-decker shuttle bus from the public transport terminal at MOA going to the MOA Arena for FREE! It's a free service to all the fans who will be watching the concert. It's so cool because it's the first time I get to ride one hehe :)

 - Our concert seats were very near the stage! I was able to see them up close and personal! Me and my sis got the Patron seats since we both didn't want to stand and get pushed around by people in the VIP section hehe We really made the best decision because we were able to see them real close and on eye level too :)

- Even though the sound system had some glitches in the first song, I was glad everything got fixed asap and the group's live performances went on smoothly after that. They were a really talented group and very professional too.
 
- The performance was spectacular! There were so many light effects and fireworks during the concert. It really helped pumped up the energy. I stayed up standing the whole evening because I can't stay still haha I screamed and sang and dance with the 2PM boys :)

- I appreciated the translated messages they placed at the background screen whenever the boys are talking. It was easier to understand them and we were able to respond to them too. I really think it made the concert more personal for us fans because they exerted some effort to reach out to us in our own language.
 
 - The only sad thing about the whole event is that it didn't get sold out. The concert was not promoted properly (shame on you HOOPLA!) and the buying period for tickets were only 1 month. Even the announcement of the concert itself was less than 2 months so there's no time to save up enough money especially since this was held only 3 months after the Kpop Fantsy Concert which a lot of Kpop fans attended. Another factor that I can think of is that they held a concert in a time during their hiatus. 2PM have not been promoting for 2 years so the number of their fans is not that many anymore compared to Big Bang and Super Junior. Luckily, the boys were still professional enough and had still performed with smiles and enthusiasm all throughout the night :)

I was only able to watch this because my ticket was a gift from my bf since he knows how much I love 2PM. I am forever grateful to him because he helped me fulfill one of my dreams :)

CN BLUE - BLUE MOON TOUR 2013

 

Highlights of the night:
- Even though I was only able to get an Upper B ticket, I was still happy about the fact that I was sitting in the center and in the front row. There's no one blocking my view and I can stay seated if I wanted to. 

- My sis and I got jealous with the other fans and bought a light stick and cardboard binoculars haha It was so nice to see the whole audience area with blue lightsticks just like what I had watched of concerts on TV.

 - The CN Blue boys decided to talk to their fans in English and Tagalog! I really appreciated their effort even though I can't seem to understand some of the words they're saying hehe 

- Yonghwa and Jungshin are really hyper that night. They kept on laughing and smiling and creating chaos. It was really fun to see the boys having such a great time.

- Jungshin and Minhyuk really displayed their great skills in playing their respective instruments! Holy moly! They are really good!

- The most memorable for me was when Yonghwa made a mistake and said "Singapore" and changed it quickly to "Philippines" haha that was epic because he looked sheepish and kept on saying sorry after that. He also tried to make amends by tweaking the last part of "See My Eyes" to "I love Philippines!" I really enjoyed that!  He also kept dancing the whole night and he looked so handsome :)

- The boys also surprised Yonghwa by singing Happy Birthday to him after talking to the fans in Tagalog (they were holding cue cards where they read sentences about their instructions to us) :)

- There were also fireworks and lots of light effects which looked so cool. Even the transition to 2nd act was great. Everything was well executed.

- CN Blue performed with energy and enthusiasm and you can really see that they were enjoying while performing :)

- They were able to fill up Araneta Coliseum! I do hope they come back again :)


OVER-ALL THOUGHTS:
I really had a great time in both concerts and I am really happy that I were able to share these very memorable moments with my sister. We are really close and I am happy that she is always willing to join me in my Kpop crazy moments haha :) 


 Thank you for dropping by!

KPOP UPDATES: WGM JoonSeo Couple

Happy Thursday! 

I decided to do a little timeline about We Got Married maknae couple - Lee Joon and Oh Yeon Seo. 

SEPTEMBER 15, 2012
They became a "married couple" in We Got Married Season 4. 
JoonSeo Couple were the last pair to join the cast for the new season and watching them start from being awkward to lovey-dovey is what endeared them to me. Their relationship is the most realistic for me as months went by because their treatment of each other really developed naturally and they seemed like they really liked one another personally.

DECEMBER 2012
They went on a honeymoon in Hawaii together with the other 2 WGM couples. 



I really enjoyed watching those episodes because you can see genuine feelings between the two. They are the only one who took the extra effort to go out alone and bond so that they will have  more memories. I thought their skinship will definitely move faster after this honeymoon.

JANUARY 2, 2013
Oh Yeon Seo got caught up in a scandal with her on-screen drama partner Lee Jangwoo.

The two were caught hanging out together by paparazzi and a lot of news about them really dating caused havoc in both We Got Married and her drama "Oh Ja Ryong Is Coming". Although both sides denied the rumor about them dating, no once can refute the fact that it really made a huge negative impact on Oh Yeon So personally because the "aggrieved" party is Lee Joon who is an idol and have a huge fan base that supported him.

In my opinion, the positives went to the drama while a lot of negativity went to WGM due to the consequences it will have on the "on-screen marriage" she have with MBLAQ Lee Joon.

JANUARY 12, 2013

The first episode/meet up of Lee Joon and Oh Yeon So after the scandal. She explained the scandal to Joon and said sorry for the trouble it caused. There's a lot of tears especially during the backstage interview while Yeon Seo was speaking..BUT you will also notice that Joon really got hurt by this issue. He didn't truly smile and I believe he is just keeping up the appearance of being understanding for the show :(

After a lot of speculations from viewers, the two still decided to continue with their on-screen marriage and went on filming for WGM as usual.

January 14 onwards...

Some viewers are still complaining and rallying about the couple leaving the show. Some even demanded that Oh Yeon Seo should be removed because no one will believe anymore about their on-screen marriage.

Personally, they both look awkward after the scandal and you can really notice Joon not having fun anymore. It's actually painful to watch them trying hard to bring enjoyment to the show :(

JANUARY 30, 2013

News: JoonSeo Couple will leave We Got Married.

We Got Married producers released an official statement regarding the two. They said that it is now official that Lee Joon and Oh Yeon Seo will be leaving the show due to scheduling conflicts of the two actors with Joon having a movie, a drama and promotions with MBLAQ.

They have filmed their last episode already and will end their 5-month "marriage" on February 2 episode of WGM.

MY PERSONAL OPINION

I am glad and sad at the same time regarding this issue. 

I am glad that Lee Joon will now have some free time to rest because he is really exhausted from all the work he is doing at present. He lost some weight and looks so tired so I am happy that his company removed him from this show already especially since he is not happy anymore. Not all company will take this extra step to care for their artist, and kudos to them for taking part of the blame that they did over worked Lee Joon lately with his jam-packed schedule.

I am sad because this couple started out good and ended up on a bad note. I am not blaming Oh Yeon Seo at all but I hope she took extra care and thought about all the possible repercussions of her actions. She not only destroyed her image to a lot of Kpop fans, but she also caused hurt to other people. Even if it's true that she is not dating Lee Jangwoo in real life, all the pictures taken of them will give another meaning. Not everyone will believe what you say because actions speaks louder than words in this case.

So in the end, We Got Married Season 4 will continue running with 2 couples for now until they find a new one. I hope it's another idol and actor mix because putting idol couples only will not make it attractive. I am really crossing my fingers that I will like the new couple because I am having a hard time liking the Kwanghee-Sunhwa couple because they look like they are just playing around...while Julien-SeAh couple is starting to bore me because Julien doesn't seem genuine with his feelings so it is kinda ruining the vibe for me. Also, since they get so little air time every week, I can't seem to learn to like them that much. Hopefully, these two couple can still hold my attention and rekindle my love for them especially the KangYoon couple.

Kpop Update: SNSD is back!

Happy Thursday everyone! My promise to blog 3x a week starts now! I hope you would all check my blog every day especially on Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday because those are the days I will upload blog posts. I'm really crossing my fingers that I could accomplish this goal of mine.

If you haven't seen my 2013 New Years Resolutions, you can click here so you can share with me some suggestions on how I can achieve them :)

I will start this year with a Kpop Update because this MV was released at exactly January 1, 2013 and I love to review it. I wanted to do Kpop Video/Song reviews like this one every now and then coz I think it's fun hehe :)

SNSD / Girls' Generation

"I Got A Boy"

I really really am so excited for this comeback! I missed SNSD so much because except for TaeTiSeo last year, they hardly appeared on anything Korean. They focused too much on their promotion in Japan just like 2PM and I didn't like their Japanese singles that much because they all sound the same. SO, I was really ecstatic when SME started releasing teasers late last year and I really waited for the MV to go live at Youtube.

Have you watched it already? Oh my gosh! It's so awesome!! I can't rave enough because it is so different from all their songs. "I Got A Boy" has a little hip hop feel to it and I really loved the combination of all 3 melodies (slow, dance and hiphop). And the dance portion really showed how talented they are in dancing. Everyone got a good screen time too especially Sooyoung and Hyoyeon who were always in the background. I also enjoyed Tiffany's solo and I'm glad SM gave her a part since she's usually a background singer even though she have the voice.

I also liked the colorful theme especially on their hairs haha Sunny keeps on having the most bizarre hair color and makeup among all of them. Luckily, she can carry it well because she have cute features. Love the outfits too...I just don't think Seohyun looked that great in this video. She looked awkward wearing those clothes and hairdo'.  

I really really love it! I can't wait to see a live performance because it's gonna be daebak! This is definitely a good comeback song for them because they were almost forgotten in 2012 due to being MIA in the Kpop world.


What about you? Did you like it or hate it? Share them in the comments section below. I would love to hear your thoughts on these changes SM made for SNSD.

Oh, and lastly, I wanted to do a makeup look based on this video. Which one is the best?

Kpop Updates: IU and SuJu's Eunhyuk dating!

Have you guys seen the news? It's been trending on Twitter, Allkpop and the search engines. I'm even rewatching all their appearances together to check their interaction hehe :)

I can't believe it! I'm really shocked when I saw their picture...and it was kinda scandalous for a kpop idol just because Eunhyuk appears shirtless and IU is in her pjs. There's a lot of speculation from netizens that they seem like they were in bed together...What do you think?

IU is still young -- 20 y/o Korean age -- and her image is so innocent and pure so I guess this shocked a lot of people. I have read that young women who sleep with men at that young age is considered "slutty" in Korea so I'm worried about IU. I hope she can go through this scandal safely. I believe this will change the image IU built for herself because of the speculations. I'll be waiting for the change she'll have on her stage :)

I believe Eunhyuk is 29 or 30 26 years old (thanks to my reader for pointing out my mistake) so not that much difference. I'm not against their relationship and I'm happy for these 2... I'm just sad that their relationship became open because of this picture that IU accidentally posted in her Twitter (for just 2 minutes).

K-pop Updates: Top 3 Kpop Controversies July 2012

July is a really eventful month for Kpop fans because a lot happened -- both good and bad. 

The Good - shows like Idol Olympics, Running Man vs Idols episode, lots of stage comebacks (SuJu, T-ara, 2NE1, etc.) and a lot more that brought joy to us.

The Bad - now this is the main topic of my post today. These 3 issues that erupted had resulted in a very negative mood for all the fans from different parts of the world.

Let's start the Top 3 countdown:

#3 Leeteuk of Super Junior entering the army

The leader of SuJu have already announced to the public that he will enter the mandatory military service right after the promotions of their newly released single "Sexy, Free & Single". It was decided by the group that they would enter the military one by one and doing it like a rotation of members instead of going in all at once and then will make a comeback after everyone is released from duty (like what Shinhwa did). Kangin who have just been recently released from duty were back on the group doing promotions while Leeteuk being the oldest of the group at age 30 have been decided to go in next, following Heechul who is already inside the military.

I guess it is better if they do it like that (rotating) because they will still be able to work and keep the fans happy with all the exposures while still being able to do their duty and serve their country. But I keep on thinking Super Junior's number will decrease one way or another because they are almost of the same age...I guess they would be affected when Yesung goes in next coz he's one of the main vocals.

It's just sad and I'll definitely miss Leeteuk on variety shows coz he's really fun to watch. And I guess this also means his stint at We Got Married with Kang Sora will end too..oh, they won't be able to read 1 year anniversary :(

#2 Nichkhun of 2PM getting involved in an accident

On July 25, Nichkhun got into a vehicular accident against a motorcyclist around 2:30 AM KST. According to reports, Khun was coming home from a company party in a restaurant near his dorm when the accident happened. The driver of the motorcycle was brought to the hospital because he had some bleeding on his ear (external bleeding not internal) which might be due to being scraped on the road since he was not wearing a helmet. It is minor but since Khun is very famous for being the epitome of a perfect prince, it has been a big issue when he made a mistake. 

Nichkhun admits that he drank a couple of alcoholic drinks during the party, so he was tested by the police and his alcohol level registered 0.056%. Now, it was no way an illegal amount, that is way too low to be considered DUI... which is why I don't get the statement that headlined the news: "Khun was driving under the influence of alcohol". He was coherent according to the police and was in no way under any kind of influence. The media was really blowing this issue up! arrg!

Another thing, the speeding issue. Khun was also not speeding because when his car was investigated, his blackbox revealed he was driving at 40km per hour (that's slow~) when he collided with the motorcycle which is driving at a slow speed too. The main cause of the accident according to the report is that both parties did not follow the stop sign at the intersection of the street.

The sad thing is, Nichkhun was so traumatized of all of these that he decided to pull out from the limelight for a while to rethink his actions and make himself a better person before working again. 2PM decided to postpone their comeback in Japan because they wanted to promote as a whole 6-member group. JPYE didn't stated an exact amount of time Khun will be absent but for the meantime there will be no appearances with him on all broadcasts.

#1 Hwayoung of T-Ara was removed from the group by CCM

Hwayoung, one of the youngest member of girl group T-ara, was fired from the group by their parent company, Core Contents Media (CCM). The company released an official statement today...you can read the complete statement in English here.

According to CCM, after meeting with all the staff and the group members and talking about the issues, they have decided to cut Hwayoung's contract short and remove her from the group. This released statement was so ambiguous that it raised more questions so the CEO had a short Q&A after..read it here.

This story has a lot of sides:

* CCM - Hwayoung was a diva and the staffs' sufferings are the reasons why she was removed.

* T-ara members suffered because Hwayoung decided to not participate on the stage on the last minute (2 groups before they need to go out and perform) and she did it with an attitude.Hyomin who did the rapping impromptu made a mistake because of this.

* Hwayoung was always bullied and outcasted by the other members of the group. Netizens have been finding a lot "proofs" (pictures and clips) that she was indeed bullied a lot. And after the statement of CCM about her removal, they believed everyone in the company bullied her.


Now, I don't know what CCM was doing. First, they added 2 new members all of a sudden then now they are removing one member. They have just made a comeback and this can really affect everything. There's a lot of negatives and hating going on right now. I have read a lot of articles where fans are favoring Hwayoung because she really looked like she was bullied by everyone including the staffs. These fans have started hating on other members like Eunjung (there was a petition for her to be removed to WGM and her new drama), Hyomin (there's a clip wherein she hit hwayong on the face during a message for fans...the issue is whether it was accidental or not) and Boram (she's not friends with Hwayoung on Twitter). Fans of T-ara are now separated on which side they want to believe and support and this is not good for the group.

I really believed they should have settled all the conflicts in private and if ever they still need to remove Hwayoung, they should have done it after the promotions of "Day by Day" as to not affect the sales of the single. I'm afraid T-ara is gonna disband soon. I don't think they can handle the pressure. If ever they didn't disband, I'm pretty sure there will be another member who will be removed. Wow! I can't believe CCM is worst than SME...At least SME cares about keeping the groups intact while CCM keeps on ruining it LOL


What about you fellow Kpop fans? What can you say about these controversies that are rocking the Kpop world right now? Share your opinions on the comments below. I would love to read what you guys thought ^_^

Kpop Updates: Super Junior, T-Ara, SNSD, Oneday (2AM+2PM)

Hello Kpop addicts! Here's another Kpop update for you guys, although I know you probably have seen these already hehe ^_^

1. Super Junior's new singles: "Sexy, Free & Single" and "For You"

I think "Sexy, Free & Single" is another hit for Super Junior. It really has a catchy lyrics and melody (although there's a one line that is weird when you first hear it -- 

You can hear "Sexy, free and single I'm ready to bingo" BUT it is written like this:

"Sexy, free and single I'm ready too. Bingo"

Bingo used as an alternative for "yahoo"

Anyway, I love the song and the dance and the sexiness of each member. They looked more buff than before especially Siwon, Leeteuk, Sungmin and Donghae...Hotness overload ^_^

Here's a live performance of "Sexy, Free and Single" + "For You" which is their thank you song for all the ELFs all over the worlds ^_^

I really liked the first part of "For You" especially because Leeteuk (as the leader and the rightful representative of SuJu) said it in English so that all of their fans can understand.

"This song is dedicated to the world's biggest fan club, the ELF

My girls, my angels"

I was so happy hearing those words and also KRY (Kyuhun, Ryewok, Yesung) sang it with emotions. They really have great voices ^_^

2. Collaboration of 2AM and 2PM (Oneday) = "One Day"

I really love JYP Entertainment coz they gave 2AM and 2PM a single (even though it's Japanese)! Fans like me who both love 2AM and 2PM as a group were really happy to see the boys together again officially. There have been a couple of special stage performance where these 2 joined forces but nothing beats an official production, right? ^_^

Here's their first official project as ONEDAY (2AM+2PM) and they are singing "One Day"

I love this! I hope JYP Entertainment can do a JYP Family Concert here in the Philippines so I can watch them live ^_^

3. T-Ara's comeback with new members in their new single "Day by Day"

I'm not really sure why T-ara's company added 2 new members when 7 are already enough and not everyone can sing a part. I think the problem is the distribution of the lines so I don't get it why they needed to add 2 more wherein they can't even handle 7...This really beats good reasoning. Anyway, they introduced Dani, the 14-year-old new member who grew up in the US, in this MV. I loved the concept of this MV coz it feels like I'm watching an RPG game or something with sexy girls that know how to kick ass 

Love how Hyomin looks great as a redhead. She really looks like an anime character. The others looked great too ^_^

Their live performance of "Day by Day" also showed the other new member. Her name is Ahreum (which I think is a really cool and unique name) and she has a great singing voice which is I guess the reason she was added.Check her out in this live performance.

I'm not sure if I love the song per se, but that's maybe because I personally prefer their dance/disco type of songs like "Lovey, Dovey" and "Roly Poly" which showcased their dancing abilities. ^_^

Even though T-ara is a 9-member group now, I think they are still one of the best Kpop girl groups and is ever evolving. I will continue to support the group and also the new members coz it's not their fault that they are added in the end when the group is already famous.

4. Girls Generation/ SNSD released another Japanese single "Paparazzi"

Even though this is not really a Kpop song, I will still include this here because I love SNSD and they are a Kpop group albeit they are singing Japanese songs. I prefer the dance version of the MV so that's the one I will post here.

This one is really catchy. I can't help but sing along with this song. It has the same feel with "Mr. Taxi" their other Japanese song (I liked that too). I haven't seen a good footage of their live performance of this so I can't share anything with you guys. I'm not sure if it's because there's only a few music programs in Japan and also fewer who has HD cameras or no one has uploaded it yet at Youtube. Regardless, I still love the quality of this dance MV released by SME.

Paparazzi is a song that fits SNSD's style because it's catchy, has a good dance step and their voices fit this type of dance songs. I love their stage costumes but I'm not sure what's the connection of a tuxedo in being a celebrity. I think if they wore something like their costume in TTS Twinkle, it would fit better hehe well that's just my personal opinion :)

K-pop Updates: News of the week

Hello everyone! This post will be filled with updates about Kpop news that happened this week ^_^

1. Wonder Girls made their comeback on the different music programs after releasing their new single "LIKE THIS". They also released another song called "GIRLFRIEND" and performed it live.

Here's the MV:

Here's their comeback stage at Inkigayo last June 6.

Here's their comeback stage at Music Bank.

2. MBC We Got Married will start airing again after their 3 months hiatus! The first episode will air on June 16 tentatively but at least they withdrawn their announcement that the show was already cancelled. Yay! I can't wait to see WooJung and TeukSo couples. I hope they'll show WooJung's wedding already coz it's past their 1 year anniversary ^_^

3. F(x) just released their new single "ELECTRIC SHOCK" and it already had more than 3 million views on Youtube after 3 days and the week isn't over yet! Let's make it 4 million views! I love the song ^_^

That's my top 3 news right now for all of my readers who are also Kpop fans like me. Are you excited for WGM too? Enjoy the videos!

Till next time, bye! ^_^
