You visted? Whoa...thanks.

First Time Macro-ing

Macro? What is a macro?

Yes, I wondered what a macro was as well when my cousin, neenr, mentioned it to me. A macro is basically a regular picture that has writing on it in a big bold font. Usually Impact. Thanks to neenr, I got to make my first macro. The minute I saw this photo, I just had to macro it and show neenr since she likes this guy. The one of the left is the one of the guy neenr likes while the one on the right is one of my men, kinky.



Macros are intended to be funny. I thought these were pretty funny. I made the one on the left especially for neenr so when she laughed at it, my macro did it's job. The one on the right was just me having fun. Haha!

Oh! Just to let you all know, the guy on the left is Doo Joon, the leader of B2ST and the guy on the right is Mir, MBLAQ's maknae.

Anyways, those are my first macros. I hope I'll be able to make more good ones.

Once again, I'm Sorry...

I'm so sorry for ignoring this amazing singer. I am so sorry for looking past you and not taking notice of you. But can you blame me? You debuted looking like this.




Yeah...no.

I'm sorry...but you looked like a ghetto asian boy and the bling didn't help. Because of that, I pushed you aside and noticed everyone else. BUT! My thoughts of you began to change when I heard you sing this song on EunTeuk's Kiss the Radio.







Even though your voice cracked at one point, this was the first time I noticed your vocal abilities. Because of that vid, I began to look up vids of you and found myself noticing you. But what made me fall for your voice was when you san 'Forever More.' Your english was almost flawless and I was amazed. And now, your voice is in my top fav voices that I can listen to for hours on end. Oh! And it helps a lot now that you look like this.



Sure, I prefer the 'Juliette' hair more than the 'Ring Ding Dong' hair. But any hair is better than 'Noona is so Pretty' hair. So he's eye worthy now.

So...Lee Jinki, Onew, SHINee's leader...accept my sincerest apology for glancing past you. You sung your way into my heart and will forever be there.

Another Man in my Life

I shall work my way up the list of my men. I have already talked aobut my cute adorable boyfriend, Yo Seob, in an earlier post. And since I'm starting from the bottom, the next person I'm going to talk about is none other than...

My Sexy Holy Man



Oh yes, Choi Siwon. Member of Super Junior who is in charge of sexy chocolate abs. This man is just plain gorgeous inside (I hope) and outside. But let's talk about the outside first.

Guyliner



Now, I'm a sucker for men who look good in eyeliner. I literally melt in a puddle of goo when I see guyliner, and Siwon is for sure without a doubt in my list of men who do guyliner justice. I have to say that my sexy holy man looked his best during the Don't Don era, as you can see through the gif. Obviously, because of the guyliner. But there's another reason why.

Delicious chocolate good enough to lick



Yes...I really typed that. But come on, if you look at this picture and not agree with what I just wrote...please get some help. That is not normal. He's tall and has amazing muscles to back him up. Seriously, I can just stare at those abs for hours. Now, if the pictures I just provided aren't good enough for you, then watch this bideo fo my sexy holy man doing a photoshoot. There's no subs, but they're not important. Just stare at the man.


Thank you Evisu for making good-looking guys every sexier.
After discussing his fantastic physique, it is time to write about his personality.
Everything I'm going to mention about Siwon is based on my own observations and interviews that I remember. I just wanted to get that out there that this is just what I think.
He really gives off a gentleman like aura around him. He also goes to church everytime he can prays often. Now, even though I'm not that religious, it is nice to have someone who has faith and such. He also seems like a very wise person and a man who can treat you well. I don't know why, but I feel like he knows how a woman whould be treated. And, of course, he sure does like skinship and that's a plus for me.
Now, get your mind out of the gutter. (But yes...I'd like that too) What I'm talking about is how he likes to hug, drape an arm around the shoulder and being close with people. I guess you could say that I'm someone who likes to do that too; linking arms, placing my head on someone's shoulder, etc. So, yes. I like skinship. I'm not ashamed to say it.
Lastly, other than his sweet and manly appearance, I noticed how he can be cocky sometimes. you can't tell when he's with the other SuJu members, but you can see it when he's with Super Junior M. And he's so much fun to watch when he's cocky. Who knew this prince can be cocky? Well, I love it.
So yes, this is my sexy holy man in a nut shell. I see him being on my list for quite a while.

2009, Year of Us

On October 23, 2009...I bought SHINee's new album.


I was so happy when I got this album because this is the second SHINee album that I own. I love their new look and anticipated listening to their songs since I've only heard the teasers. And now that I have heard all of the songs, seen the overall photobook and the packaging I shall give my review.

Songs

1. Y.O.U. (Year of Us) - I absolutely love this song. I was actually doing the laundry when this song started to play and I literally had to stop everything and listen to this song. The background music really works for the song and the boys' voice have a smooth and gentle sound. It's a type of song that you'd want to listen to when you just want to lie down and rest. I have to say that I probably love the chorus the most out of the whole entire song. And if you want to know an interesting, Minho actually sings 3 times if you pay attention. Sure, the longest time was only 3 secs, but for someone who likes Minho it means a lot. I would without a doubt play this song on repeat.

2. Ring Ding Dong - Now of course, this being their comeback song I have heard this song a lot already. Overall, this is just a fun song to listen to with their continuous 'ding ding ding' and 'dong dong dong.' And before you even know it, this song gets stuck in you head and mumbling to yourself 'ling ding dong ling ding' while you're walking around. But of course, I have no idea how the words 'elastic' and 'fantastic' adds to the meaning of the song. If remember the jist of the translations I heard, it seems to be talking about a guy who's kind of on the bad side and how there's a girl that caught their attention. And how if they can have that girl, they don't need anything else. (If I'm wrong in the translation, please correct me) So...how does that relate to 'elastic' and 'fantastic' help? Anyways, I really like this song and just puts a smile on face.

3. JoJo - The first thing I noticed when I heard this song was the really low voice speaking in the beginning of the song. Now, I don't think they got someone to say that for their album, but it seems like it's too low for Minho. But then again, Minho does have a really low voice. So, I'm going to say it's Minho. And I'm going to say this, I know Minho has a low voice but it seemed like it was extra low in this song. But, enough with his voice...back to the song. Again, this song is a hit for me. To me, it has like a slow club feel to it. The back beat is very catchy and one can find themselves bobbing their head or moving their body to it. And of course, their voices are amazing in it as well. Another song to put in repeat. I just wonder what 'JoJo' means...hmm...

4. Get Down (Key, Minho feat. Luna) - For this song, I have to say that it might take a couple of more times to listen to for me to get used to it. This song is just Minho and Key rapping with a little bit of Luna. To be honest, you don't really hear Luna that much in this song. It's like...um...very...I wouldn't say ghetto rap per say...but you hear like sirens sometimes in the background. Sort of old school and new school in it. Minho's rapping is very cool because of that voice of his and it really sounds powerful. Key's rap was cool too because it seems like the beginning of the rap is in english. And his english is pretty good since I understand what he's trying to say.

5. SHINee Girl - This song has a happy feel to it during the chorus. I mean, the title is SHINee Girl so I'm sure it's about liking a girl or something. It's a cute song, I like it. It can bring your spirits up because of its happy and quick beat. There is one part I like though. It's the line "I want you. I need you. I love you too/true." That part was cool.

6. The Name (Onew feat. 김연우) - I just absolutely love this ballad song. I don't know who the other guy is, but his voice nicely compliments Onew's. I adore Onew's voice and it just sounds so flawless in this song. I think it showcases his voice very well because it's low and then there are high notes as well. Perfect song to listen to when you want to relax as well because it's so calming. I'm sucker for his voice so that's why I really love this song.

Photobook

All I have to say is that I love the pictures. It mostly consists of black and whites with color too. Since their concept is kind of dark and gothic of sorts, the lighting and photos convery that very well. There are individual, couple and group pics so it's pretty evenly distributed. The boys look very hot and wish there was more for me to look at.


Packaging

The overall look of it was pretty cool. It was horizontal this time unlike their 'Romeo&Juliette' which was vertical. But it was like the other album in the sense where the CD was in the back in a slit. Photos first then the CD. Now, there are some negatives though...despite how minimal it is. One thing I didn't like about it was how the pictures were glued to the seam. I mean, the day I just got the album, I was looking through the photobook and the pictures were coming off. I didn't even open the photobook that wide and yet the pictures came out of the seam. So, four pictures now are out of the seam. The other negative is that I'm not fond of how the CD is just in the seam. The CD slips out of it and I'm afraid of it slipping out and the CD being damaged.

Now, if I were to rate the album as the whole I would give it a....

9.5/10

I would have given it a 10 if the pictures didn't fall out and the CD was more secured. But overall, the songs are amazing and the photos are sexy. I would totally recommend people who are into SHINee or at least slightly interested in this group to buy the album. I have to say that I probably like this album the most.

New Guy in my Life

Yes...I have a new guy in my life and I would like to introduce him to everyone. He entered my life not too long ago. It's still fresh in my memory. He just debuted with his group a couple of weeks ago and while watching some of their mtv show and their debut performance, he immediately became one of my favs.

Sure, he's not the one I want to do the nasty with...that's Ki Kwang, as one can tell by looking at my sidebar. But somehow he got to me. This special guy is....


Yo Seob from B2ST!!!

Yes...this blonde boy is my cute adorable boyfriend. Knowing myself, I'm someone who would go for Ki Kwang because he's ripped and has sexy luscious lips I want to taste. But for some strange odd reason, I'm drawn to this cute cheek pinch-able guy. I think it has to do with me watching their mtv show. Even though I had no idea what the hell they're talking about, I liked his personality. So, that's probably why I'm attracted to him.

Welcome to the list Yo Seob, my cute adorable boyfriend. cute Pictures, Images and Photos

Just a little something

I was going to just add this on my post about Taemin, but I decided that this had to have a post of its own.

Now, this thought came to me while I was just chatting with my cousin, neenr. It basically just slipped out of my mouth and neenr started to crack up. And since no one would understand what I'm talking about, I made a gif to go along with it.

Mmm.......

One thing came to my mind when I saw this.

"Taemin's so badass that when he drinks milk, he doesn't get a milk-stache."

Oh yes...(kyu style)...he's my badass.

Bling Bling Jonghyun

Oh goodness...how should I even start?
Bling Bling Jonghyun, I truthfully have to say that when I watched their first mv "Noona is so Pretty," he was the first person that I noticed. But then I pushed him aside when I saw Minho in their next music video "Love Like Oxygen."
Anyways, the point is I never really paid attention to him and just skipped over his parts. But with his recent transformation...I doubt I will ever do that again! I mean, how does one not look at him when he is this sexy?

Before....eh

After...Oh yes...

Now...really, it's amazing how one can transform into what he looks like now. I always got this cocky vibe from him whenever I watch him in interviews and such. Before, I was not fond of it at all. But what I don't understand is that he's ever MORE cocky in this mv and I LOVE it.
He constantly has this smirk and has this sort of...
"Hell yeah, I'm the shit alright. You all should know that."
aura around them that is so sexy.
Even though I'm loving the aura that is surrounding him, what threw me off the edge was when he ran his thumb across his lower lip. That made me crazy! Like I said in my other post, I do not understand why I find that move so DAMN SEXY!
It really is his cocky attitude that makes me want him. I'm loving this cocky bastard.

Innocent Maknae

Yes, let us all start with SHINee's youngest member, Taemin.

When this group began, my thoughts on Taemin were mostly:

"Wow...what an innocent guy..." "Too cute." "Too good." "Such a child, a boy."

I'm someone who's okay with cuteness and such, but there is such a thing where it is too overwhelming and it's sickening. That's what I get from Taemin sometimes. It's like, he has no bad bone in his body. He's so naive and sweet looking that he's seen as someone who is gentle and delicate. Like...you want to baby him or something. It's like a turn off to me. I mean, this is how he looked like.



Innocent naive goody two shoes...eh...

Now really, looking at him like this...I just want to corrupt him. Break that innocent image and just dirty him. (Goodness...I sound so bad) But, I guess I don't need to because now he looks like this.


Love his glare...he looks so mean! yum...

Watching him like THAT in the music video literally changed everything I have ever thought about him. He glared and smirked like a badass guy and I'm falling for it.

THIS is the Taemin that I want and desire. This Taemin makes me forget the fact that he's actually 2 years younger than me. This new image of him doesn't make me feel disgusting when I have nightly fantasy's about him. I feel and sense that he is more powerful and manly in the video. It's like he can actually be able to be in control in the relationship.

And you see, I don't really aim for anyone that's younger than me. I don't mind if the guy is younger than me by a couple of months or if they're born the same year as me. But with Taemin looking like that...screw the age.

I am finding myself being attractive to this badass.

Smirk at me. Be mean to me Taemin...control me. Do that and I'm yours.

Taemin's noona,

KpopxFanatic

Drool worthy? I believe so.

Yes, I know that I mentioned in my last post that I was going to say how each member of SHINee affect me so...but I just couldn't help but do this first.


Now, being into k-pop for a little bit over a year, I have seen a lot of drool-worthy performances.


My all time group, Super Junior, has had their share of pelvic thrusts that froze my comp once because I was constantly playing the video over and over and over again.


I have slipped off the couch watching 2pm leader (he will always be their leader) Jaebeom tearing off his white tank...revealing his scultped hard body.


And now I have a new group to add to drool-worthy performances.



MBLAQ.


Yes...I know that I already posted the video, but I made some gifs of that drool-worthy perf.


First gif: Now, it's already hot and sexy because Seung Ho is doing the infamous 'feel yourself' move all the way down...down...but what makes this hotter is that the other sexy looking members are doing this sort of sensual rolling chest pop. I don't know what it's called, but I just know that I'm melting while watching it. I mean, just look!

Photobucket
*stares at Seung Ho's hand traveling down...down...*


Now...if somehow that didn't turn you on, then try the second gif.

Second gif: Well...um...*speechless*...just look at the gif. Words are unnecessary.


Photobucket

*starts to think irrationally*...I wanna lick that chocolate...

Now, if the second gif didn't turn you on either...then I worry about you. Yes, I understand that these gifs are pretty bigger than usual. But really, making these small would do them injustice.

So, ladies and gents (it is possible)...enjoy the gifs.

Turned on gal,

KpopxFanatic

'Ring Ding Dong' alright...

Oh how you boys grew up in the span of five months just amaze me. From neon pink clothing and cutesy smiles...you all have become these dark mysterious badass guys (still not men yet) that I cannot get out of my head.

Before, the only one that my heart would be for is the almost-mute Minho. But after watching this mv, my eyes wandered and now my heart is confused to which one I adore more. All five of you do something so sexy that I begin to spazz.

Now, let's talk about this sensual/sexy filled music video.

Throughout the whole entire video, I'm seeing glares, smirks and a look that says,

"Yes, I know. You want me don't you?"

And oh how they are correct indeed. It literally makes me shiver, thinking that I'm the one they're glaring/smirking at. Then, they constantly run their fingers across their delicious lips. First Jonghyun runs his thumb across his bottom lip...then Key does the same thing right after Jonghyun did it...and Onew! Wow...he even ran his whole hand across his mouth. Honestly, I do not know why I find it so appealing. All I know is that they should do it more often.

And thinking that I'm only younger than two of them makes it harder for me to believe that I'm finding these younger men so damn sexy.

Oh SHINee...the powers you hold over me.

Do's and Don'ts: Hair

Okay, I just want to start off by saying that I have nothing against the person that I'm going to write about. Actually, I just got into this guy in August so you can't say that I'm hating on him. He's adorable, cute and fun to watch. But, I whenever it comes to my opinions and thoughts...I'm always going to be honest. So, Do's and Don'ts case 1...hair.




Cute straight hair: Do Tight curly hair: Don't


Now...really. Why? Why mess with something that's already great?


The reasons why it's a Do

- It's nice to look at, clean and straight.

- It suits his the shape of his face.

- Gives him a kind and cute image.

The reasons why it's a Don't

- It's just not attractive on him.

- Looks like Shirley Temple's hair on the fritz.

- Just does not compliment his image or face at all.

Now, I'm hoping that this curly haired look will last for a really short time. I mean, his hair is finally perfect for him and looks good. He's so cute/hot at the same exact time. I just hope that this curly phase will end.

It's Bittersweet...

SM Entertainment released a statement on the 18th saying,

"For now, we don't think Kangin can work as a member of Super Junior until later on. Even his fans are disappointed so until the end of the year, he will take a break to think about what he did."

source: ISplus

As I read this, I had mixed feelings.

I'm sad because of the horrible turn of events towards the #1 Handsome Guy. He was a member that would bring smiles on my face and laughter in my heart. I am sad to see that this is happening to him. I am sad to see the group that I love going through hard times. I am sad to see that ELF is going to be seeing a lot more of 11 member performances. I am sad to see another member absent from Super Junior. I am sad to see people turning their backs on Kangin.

I'm angry with netizens people who have nothing better to do but bring Kangin down deeper into the darkness. I'm angry with people who make these unnecessary petitions and taking control over Kangin's life and career through the internet. I'm angry that these people can't let the police and law officials deal with the situation because they're the one's that actually determine Kangin's fate. I'm angry that netizens people cannot understand that behind this idol image, Kangin is a regular human being who makes terrible mistakes. I'm angry that people cannot comprehend that.

I have hope with the solution SM Entertainment came up with. I have hope that Kangin will be able to use this time to regroup himself. I have hope that Kangin will learn from his actions and comeback to us ELF's a better and stronger Kangin. I have hope that Kangin will get through this. I have hope that Super Junior will get through this. I have hope that ELF's are going to continue to be there for Kangin and not abandon him in his time of need. I have hope that things will get better. I have hope that this will be resolved in a good way. I have hope.

Yours,

Late Night Laughfest

Oh goodness...where do i even begin? Well, it was all because of this video. They are a new group called MBLAQ. I'll post more info on them later since that isn't the purpose of this post.

Early this morning around 1:30 am, my cousin neenrgotdongbanged and I were still awake watching this drama called Buzzer Beat. Again...that's for a different post. Anyways, while we were waiting for the video to load, the two of us decided to watch the 2nd live performance of this group singing their debut song.

Now, this is a new group that has perked both of our attention and the song is pretty catchy. Besides the fact that there is this amazing gorgeous guy who already has a ripped up shirt, showing his hard rock abs, decides to lift his shirt up so we can see everything! Well, that guy is neenrgotdongbanged new interest and in this performance, he was cute and sexy at the same time!! How is that even possible?

But this is what made us laugh so hard for about 10 minutes straight at 1:30 in the morning. neenrgotdongbanged has her fangirl moments like squealing and shoving people when someone was just too cute. (yes...it can be dangerous at times to sit next to her) I have basically witnessed and heard everything that she does whenever we go crazy over a k-pop group. But, I heard something that I thought I would NEVER EVER hear come out of her. I'm not exactly sure where in the video she did this...I just know that it was towards the end. The sexy ripped up shirt guy smiled at the camera and then...I heard it. neenrgotdongbanged, my cousin....PURRED!

Yes...you read correctly. She PURRED like a cat. I literally paused the video and started to laugh. neenrgotdongbanged didn't know why I was laughing crazy, but laughed a bit just because. Then I told her,

"Did you just not hear yourself? You purred at Lee Joon!"

When I told her, she joined in with me and we both laughed like we were mental. Because...really, how many people actually purr at hot men? Seriously, the laughing wouldn't stop! I think the reason why the both of us found it so funny is because she just got into this guy two days ago and he's already so hot to her that she'll purr! And at the moment, Yoochun and Yunho are in her heart right now for months now and they haven't released that kind of behavior from neenrdongbanged. Really, the two of us were dying.

So, go ahead and watch the video. And once you do, please tell me. Do you think there are purr-worthy moments? Or are neenrgotdongbanged and I just crazy ass bitches fangirls? Feel free to give your opinions.

Crazy ass bitch fangirl,

Someone I need to apologize to...

A couple of hours ago, I saw something that made me realize that I have some people to apologize to. Here is one of them.


Seunghyun...I am truly sorry...

I have to apologize to this drool-worthy guy right here. Honestly speaking, I didn't even give this fine specimen the light of day because he was the new member of the group. Also, he replaced my favorite member of the group so of course I wouldn't be fond of him. Hell...when I first saw his picture I was like,

"What the hell? This is the guy that is going to replace my love Won Bin? He's not even that good-looking! And he looks mean!"

Yes...I am ashamed to say those were my thoughts when I discovered Seunghyun. It took months for me to accept him, but I still didn't pay him much attention. But once I stumbled upon THAT picture...I realized that I was a terrible person to even think that. Seunghyun is one of the good-looking guys that are younger than me and I will NEVER EVER ignore that boy again. And when I saw that smirk of his....whoo~...*fans self*...sorry, I had a fangirl moment. That boy's smirk should be illegal because it's so sexy. And I felt like he's going to get back at me for what I've done if I don't say sorry, so here I am.

I am SO utterly sorry Seunghyun for what I have done and I hope that you can forgive me. You sure are now climbing higher on my list of hot guys.

Wishing that she'll be forgiven,

Don't Give Up Kangin...

Something I made a while ago for someone...it seemed appropriate...

With all that is happening to Kangin right now, I just want to give my support to him. For all of you who do not know, I'll just give you a quick run down.

First incident was that Kangin was accused with assault charges because of a fight that happened outside the bar. The result of the case was that he fought in self defense because the man started the harrassment. That happened a couple of weeks ago and everyone, including me, thought that everything was going to be okay for Kangin.

Until a day or two ago.

Kangin got into a DUI accident. A second investigation is on it's way and Kangin released an apology to the public, including SM Entertainment.

I just wanted to give my 2 cents on this situation. One of my friends told me that anti fans are constantly cussing at Kangin and that there's a supposed petition to kick Kangin out, like what happened to Jaebeom. I cannot say this is true because I heard it from my friend, so consider this a rumour. Anyways, here is my opinion.

As much as I am a big E.L.F. fan, I do believe that Kangin made a big mistake. I am sad and disappointed that this is happening to him. Right when the first scandal was starting to fade away, a DUI accident happened. But despite this, I am not going to turn my back on Kangin and abandon him. Now is that time where Kangin needs support from his fans and it's just sad to see how fans are turning their backs on him because of the mistakes he made.

Now, believe me, I understand the severity of his actions because he could have hurt someone. But he is human. Humans make mistakes every day, small and big. It just bothers me when people add to the problem by insulting him and makin unecessary comments. It annoys me that because Kangin is a well-known celebrity, the situation is bigger than it really is. This is blown way out of proportion and making negative comments just makes everything worse. I mean, don't the people understand that he's feeling horrible as it is? I don't know, I just feel like instead of bringing him more down we E.L.F.'s just need to continue to support him and let him know that we are still there for him.

I just want all of this to get resolved. Let him take full responsibility of his actions and when that's done, allow him to get himself back together with no problem. Kangin is just a man who has made more mistakes than usual, a man who deserves to be forgiven in due time.

Kangin...Kim Youngwoon...#1 Handsome Guy...please don't give up and keep your head high. You can get through this. Other E.L.F.'s and I will continue to support you and be here for you.

Kangin hwaiting!

Yours,

Kpop Group of the Day: F.T. Island

This group right here, F.T. Island aka Five Treasure Island, yes the name is lame is the first k-pop group that I got into other than Super Junior. They are different than other k-pop groups out there since they actually play instruments! And the fact that they are all good-looking and talented in the instrument that they play is a totaly plus.

But of course, something terrible happened to the group that left me depressed for a couple of days. The member Won Bin, who was actually my #1 member in F.T. Island decided to leave the group because the group wasn't going in the direction that he wanted. Or that is what people speculate...but whatever the reason is, he left the group and a new member came in.

Seunghyun.

I'm going to be honest, it took a while for him to butter up to me...but he has entered my heart now. I have accepted him as a member of F.T. Island. Anyways, here are my thoughts on each of the members.

Jonghoon: leader/guitarist JaeJin: bassist

These two fine men are my favs in the group. I have tried and tried to pick only one to be my #1 in F.T. Island, but I found it impossible. Jonghoon, the HOT guy on the right is an amazing guitarist. Since I have a thing for guys who are crazy good on the guitar, it's only obvious that I would be drawn to him. And, he's so handsome! He has thing manly charm about him that I can't ignore and he looks like someone who would be romantic towards his girlfriend. *sighs* He's for sure someone I would want to date.

For JaeJin, he's just too cute. Yes...his hair during the 'Cross and Change' was totally unattractive that I just wanted to slap give their hairstylist a good talking to. It's just a good thing that his hair has grown in their recent new PV* 'Raining' that was apparently filmed in the Philippines. One could not really tell since it was basically in some sort of concrete construction site...but it was a cool dramatic PV. One could tell that it had a F.T. Island vibe to it. ANYWAYS, what I love about this guy is that he is just too adorable and I love his voice. I was so happy when they started to make him sing a lot more. He has a smooth sweet voice. Oh! One more thing...these two guys are so hot that they are STILL FINE when they cover half of their face with shades.


Seunghyun: vocals/guitarist Hongki: lead vocals Minhwan: drummer

Of course, one cannot forget the other three members of the group.

Seunghyun...the guy that grew on me. It's probably because of the awesome hair, I'm a sucker for guys that have awesome hair. Yes, I look at hair when it comes to guys. After I looked past the awesome two layered colored hair, I saw how funny this guy was. His sarcastic attitude that bother his hyungs is too hard to resist. And I still can't believe that this guy is actually a year younger than me. Goodness gracious.

Hongki...now this guy has an amazing voice. I could listen to his husky low voice any time, day and night. I swear...I will never get tired of hearing his voice. He can sing fast songs, slow songs and sing in various ranges. And this guy is so much fun to watch in interviews and variety shows. He's crazy and fun and looks adorable doing it. I love him in his new drama too...but that's for another post.

Minhwan...the maknae. Truthfully, I didn't really pay much attention to this drummer. But after watching more vids of him, he perked my interest. He really is cute and I found it funny how he always act like all the hyungs hit him. When in reality, he could hit them back. Have you seen his arms? He's the fricking drummer...he should have arm muscles. Anyways, he really grew up and changed looking at him now. He's more matured.

So yes, F.T. Island is filled with talented guys and I wish them the best in the future. I also hope that they'll be able to accomplish what they want...to be recognized as a rock band, not an idol group.

It's an Asian Invasion.

Yes...the time has come. Everything great about asian music has invaded my heart, mind and soul. I remember the time when it all started...the summer of 2008.

Thanks to my dad who came back from the Philippines bought me this drama called, "Hana Kimi" taiwanese version. That is what started all of this. While watching that silly and fun drama, which had a horrible ending that got me pissed, I came across a man named Wu Chun.
"Yes....this man was my first asian love..."
And by noticing this gorgeous buff man, I discovered my first and probably only m-pop group, I learned of a group named Fei Lun Hai aka Fahrenheit. When I found out that this guy was in a group, I was like, "What? Not only is he sexy but he can sing too?!" Well...that's like half right. He's okay when it comes to singing and his dancing ability...let's just say his attempts are cute. Now, my whole world revolved around Fei Lun Hai and thought that there is nothing else that can be better than my Fei Lun Hai. Oh...how wrong was I to even think that.

Now, the Taiwanese music began to slowly fade away while a good friend of mine introduced me to the realm of Korean Pop Music. What I discovered from the Korean pop music scene is how is it possible for there to be so many SEXY korean men? It's just not possible how there are so many good-looking men in the K-pop music industry. It really amazes me. And the group that has stolen my heart and is still there until now is the infamous 13 member korean boy group Super Junior.

Front row (L to R): Sungmin, Donghae, Ryeowook, Heechul

Oh goodness...my love for this group is too hard to express. I cannot get enough of this group and for some people they wonder how I can like a group who have that many people. And to be honest, I don't know why. All 13 of them bring smiles to face, tears to my eyes, and so much laughter that I have fallen off of my bed laughing so hard. But whenever I have to give an answer, I just say, "Well...I like variety when it comes to my men." Super Junior has a variety of people in it, that's for sure. You've got the funny ones, sexy ones, talkative ones that never shut up, cute ones...the list goes on. They are for sure my #1 Korean pop boy group right now and it will probably stay that way. Of course I like a lot of other kpop groups, but I'll save that for another time.

And lastly, a J-rock group entered my life and like my taiwanese group, it probably is the only J-rock group that I am really into. I stumbled upon this group when I realized that I have basically watched every subbed Super Junior video out there and there was nothing new from the group. So, I decided to take a break from the k-pop scene and try some Japanese music. Another good friend of mine gave me a list of j-rock groups and there was one that caught my attention in the first five seconds. That j-rock group is none other than Alice Nine.

From Left to Right: Tora, Saga, Shou, Nao, Hiroto
Oh yes...I was very into this group. Not so much now, but I will have my moments when I just need to listen to japanese music and I immediately listen to my Alice Nine playlist. The reason why I liked this group and not the others that were given to me is because they're not so hardcore. I did listen to screamo and stuff a year or two ago, but this group has a nice balance of hard rock and mellow tunes. They do not over do it and I like that.

So, probably like most people, I got affected by the invasion of asian music and become a follower. And since I've got to wake up early tomorrow, I shall end it here.
