If you ever have the slightest interest to take a trip down the Kpop scene, then i'm pretty sure you'll come to appreciate it's wonders....of cus, that is if you pick the right ones.

i don't mean DBSK or FTTS only....there are actually truckloads of talents waiting to be discovered. i assure you, they are ANYTHING but mere packaged pretty faces....some are really far from pretty..[despite having gone under the knife]. haha...but i gotta applaud their innate talents man...

One thing i cannot resist, is that unique husky voice they have [the guys]. i don't know how to explain it except that it's their very distinct korean way of singing ballads....omg.... i'm officially gonna coin it the "KIMCHI voice"! lol.

a couple of singers who qualify under this cateory include:

-Fany [Hwan hee]
-Hong Ki [FT Island]
-Howl
-Uknow [DBSK]
-Dae sung [BigBang]

ummm..if you know them then you'll get my point....

and i totally dig the korean-style of rapping though i couldn't make out what they were rapping most of the time. it's a hell lot of difference compared to the mando-way....[all of them suck cept for 'Machi'] lol.

If you don't know Epik high, you MUST know BigBang.

haha....it doesn't even matter if you don't understand what they're singing man....the best thing about Korean music [or other foreign music for that matter] is that they capture you purely from the way they sound. but if you really wana know...you can find out from the translations in the millions of websites online.

my true love is still dbsk. BUT, i'm starting to love BigBang too...they're a whole different genre....a whole different story. not your typical prettyboys. a bag full of talent i must say. if you wana know why, go look at these music videos....


***Those in Italics are HIGHLY recommended. =)
