Wordsmith-not

After rediscovering K-pop this year (I say 'rediscovering' because I've known Kpop for a while, but didn't really care for it as much before), I have to say I pretty much like songs from boy groups. I find their songs are better suited to my tastes, plus their voices are not pitch-y (meaning, it doesn't irritate the hell out of me) like the girl groups. I admit it's also because I'm female. But that doesn't mean I can't appreciate girl groups. Proof of that is Spica. I love their new song so much I'm posting it here. The only other Kpop video I blogged about was SHINee's Why So Serious, and I LOVE that group. Seriously.


Tonight by Spica

You won't hear teeny-weeny, cutesy, pitch-y voices here. Goes to show that what they're saying about the group's talent is true. I hope they do make it big, especially now with the support of Lee Hyori.

After recently watching the KPop Republic concert featuring SHINee--OMG. OMG. OMG. In the flesh!!!--EXO K, and Dal Shabet, I've been thinking about how lucky some fans were who got to meet the boys, and girls, backstage. Or even how I, as a fan, feel like a loser for not knowing what time and day SHINee arrived in Manila. Or where they were staying. It even got me thinking where would I get such information, and who should I know to get it.

Then I came across the term Sasaeng Fan, which Wikipedia describes as: an excessively obsessed Hallyu fan. Crazy enough to invade the lives of their idols and go to unimaginable lengths to get close to them. Stories about these fans are an interesting read, and also a little creepy. Makes me wonder why I even call myself a fan if all I've ever done was amass a collection of music videos, video clips, mp3s, articles, images, and watch concerts and got myself hoarse from shouting waaaaayyyy too much.

I've been an avid supporter of many music groups/ stars (Boyzone, The Corrs, Mandy Moore, and 30 Seconds to Mars), some of which have come and gone. I have yet to get close to any of my favorite groups. Close enough to shake their hand or get an autograph or have a photo taken with them. I wish one day I would be able to do that. But I'm sure I'll never do something crazy to achieve that goal.

Ok, it's been a while since I've written anything. Lately, or just late last week, I've been fangirling on SHINee--a 5-man boyband from South Korea. I'm not new to K-pop, but I wasn't a fan either. I like J-pop more, which is probably because of the animes I watch. :D

Anyhoo, last week was also the time SHINee released their newest album and single "Why So Serious?".  What can I say? I love the new song! I'm not sure how to classify the music though. Electro-pop-dance-funk-rock? It's a mix actually and somehow it all comes together in this song. The most notable part of the song for me is the refrain where Taemin and Jonghyun sang:

[Taemin] daeum ssinui keullaimakseu mak sijak dwae
[Jonghyun] I eumagi deouk deo keojimyeon urin saraisseo, tonight

The beat and melody is so different from the rest of the song that it just pops out. Not to mention it sounding great. Add the way it was merged into the chorus--it was just amazing. Ok, I'm totally fangirling now... :") More proof that this song is worthy of fangirling: just 5 days since the official music video was up on youtube, it already has 2 million views! Way to go, boys!

Anyway, as much as I love Hello, Lucifer, and Dream Girl from SHINee, this song just rocks it out of the park for me. See for yourself...


Speaking of J-pop, SHINee does have a Japanese album out...*searching youtube now*
