Adam Couple
Hello, it's yingxue here to post again!
Today, I decided to introduce a kpop "couple" to you!
Well, although they aren't a real life couple,
but i find them very sweet together. This couple is the "adam couple"!
which is made up of Brown Eyed Girls's Ga In & 2AM's Jo Kwon.

Meaning of the adam couple is "Petite" as they're both small & slim,
Hence, they are so called "adam couple".

You must be thinking why them? What do I mean by not a real life couple?
There's a korean variety show called we got married,
they are a "made-believe" couple in the show & they behaves like a couple in it.

& they're seriously very compatible!

How is it related to pop music? isn't it a variety show?
If you're thinking that, you're wrong!
Brown eyed girls and 2AM is quite popular in korea!
Their songs topped the charts, especially, 2AM's song.

Hence, Ga In & Jo Kwon is considered Kpop singers!

Okay, enough of this introduction thing,
I'm going to show you guys a video of them singing their couple song!
they made a song for the fans who liked them together,
and their songs topped the charts,
and won 1st place in music shows like "m!countdown".

Okay, please enjoy! "we fell in love" by Jo Kwon & Ga In.

After watching it, they are really sweet & cute together right?
I love them together! Hahahaha :D

Especially when the video is at 2:16 to 2:22,
they look really close & happy together!
and at 3:10, they did a "heart" shape using their hands!
It will really be good if they're dating, I won't mind!

Okay, now, the song is by the husband, Jo Kwon.
He made the song when this "couple" is moving their house,
however, it really became a song after some editing,
& he's promoting this song today!
However, I've chosen to show you guys
the video of the audio and subtitles only,
because i felt that the video i'm going to show you guys below,
will convey his feelings more than his live performances.

Hence, pleaseeee enjoy! "The Day I Confessed" by Jo Kwon

After watching the video, do you think that Jo kwon

have really fallen in love with Ga In?
because I felt so! He seems like he's loving Ga In so much!
The lyrics, his feelings, conveys love.

Please do support his single "The Day I Confessed" :D
I shall post tomorrow again, see you guys!

With love,
Yingxue ^^

Fahrenheit - Path
I'm posting about Fahrenheit again!
Well, no choice, I feel that because of K-pop I've been neglecting them. HAHA!
Well, I'll show you a random popular track for the 3 different albums since their debut till now.

Debut Album
Song: Wo You Wo De Young


Aaron injured himself during the filming of this music video :(
And netizens even said they would kick Aaron out and go with a threesome because his injured leg was a disadavantage for the group.
But the good thing was, the other three stood out to clarify that Aaron was still in the group.

and also, in the first album , Aaron don't get much parts too, even though his vocals are good ;(

2nd Album
Song: Xin Li You Shu


1:23 , thats aaron !
They finally gave him more parts!
He's so cute. (:
1:40 , Awwww , that action makes my heart melt ! :X


3rd Album
Song: Yue Lai Yue Ai

In this MV, I love the part starting from 3:08 .
It shows Aaron confessing to the girl in the MV.
And his acting skills are not bad !
:)
And from 3:26 to 3:33, thats Aaron's voice.
In the 3rd album, he finally have more parts, and in some songs, those parts are on par with Jiro, the one who usually have more parts.


Well, I'll say Aaron's voice is getting recognised. His voice is good, having a good range of high to low.
But his voice is good isn't it?
Haha, I just love him and Fahrenheit.
What do you think?

love me VS lovefool
Hi! Today I'm going to share two of my favorite English songs.
Actually, the chorus part of the two songs are the same lyrics and melody.
“ love me love me ,Say that you love me “
Yeah, I like the lyrics!

check out these two songs below:

Justin Bieber- Love Me







The Cardigans-Lovefool



Heehee, This is two different styles of songs .
Did Justin get a little too inspired by the song?
I think Justin's is a very sweet "remake" of the song.
I love both songs!
Which one do you prefer?


With regards,

zhang dong liang
Today, I'm going to introduce to you guys, the first Chinese singer that melt my heart when i listen to his songs. I'm might be exaggerating but you should really to his songs one day. His name is Nicholas Teo (zhang dong liang). He is from Malaysian, our neighbouring country.
Here are some photos of him:

The first song that i hear him sing is 当你孤单你会想起谁。When i listen to his voice, i was attracted to him.

He also acted in two Taiwan dramas named: Smiling Drama and Invincible Shan Bao Mei. He is so called the smiling prince because of his smile. The dramas that he have acted is very nice. He also sing the songs for the two drama.

This is also one of my favourite song and i hope that it will also become your favourite songs.

Another sexy k-pop icon, Chaeyeon!
Hello! Cheryl here to introduce to you songs ~
I am going to write about Chae Yeon for today! :)
Another k-pop sexy icon is back!
Recently Chae Yeon returned the music scene ~
Releasing her new song.. Look Look Look.
Let's enjoy her performance on M! Countdown!
Look Look Look - Chae Yeon


As usual with her sexy concept, her new song is also nice.
The way she wears is also quite sexy...
Her powerful dance steps in the performance and the song is nice.
From my own view, i find that her style is quite similar to Lee Hyori.
Although some people may not like it, but i feel that it is alright.
What are your views on Chae Yeon's come back? :D

FM Static - Tonight
Hey, it's Su Mei here once again. Today I'm going to introduce an English song.

Its
Tonight by FM Static.

I don't know much about this band "FM Static" , because I don't listen to English songs a lot, only those that are either introduced to me or heard over the radio.
This song, is one of the songs that one of the friends over the net introduced to me around 2 years ago.
I like the lyrics for the songs. There's not a part that I especially like as I like the whole song, it's meaningful.

Okay wait no further, check out the song below, there's lyrics, although we can understand it perfectly without the lyrics.



Although this song is not recent, it is very popular. So what did you think about this song? It's good , right?


Cheers. :)

Lee Hyori
Hello, i'm here to post again.. hahaha,
it's me, yingxue!

Today i'm going to introduce the Queen of Kpop!
She's called Lee Hyori.
She became famous when her album "any motion"
came out, it was a great hit!
After her "Any motion" album, her 2008's album
was a big hit too, the album is called "Hyorish"
Inside Hyorish, there's a song called "U-Go-Girl".
That song made her more famous worldwide.
She was the trend in korea in 2008.

Here's the MV, please take a look @ it (:

After watching the MV, what's your comments?
I feel that she's very confident in 2.03 to 3.18,
as she transformed to become more beautiful.

Are you guys wondering why did I call her the Queen of Kpop?
As you can see from the MV, she's the "trend" in kpop,
she can put off any kind of looks well & she's very pretty.

Recently, her newest album released @ 2010.
the name is called "h-logic".
although some of the songs in "h-logic" was accused of plargarism,
and hyori admit that she did copy some songs,
but it was actually not all her fault because
there's a song writer, who rip out artist's songs and sell it to her.
Hence, it was the song writer that had plargarised, not her.

Anyway, there's a song called "Chitty chitty bang bang",
which is her song in this new album, it's original.
I felt that the song is very nice & she's able to pull off any looks.

Watch her MV now, please enjoyyy :D

She can really pull off any looks right?
She dances well, and she's still so pretty.
can you believe that she's in her thirties now?
I can't! I thought she was in her late twenties. hahaha,
and Please do support her! :D

Please look forward to my post tomorrow, I shall end
my post here, heehee :D

With regards,
Yingxue ^^

Singapore Mandopop Singers
Today I'm introducing two Singapore Chinese Pop Singers.

Stephanie Sun Yan Zi
and
JJ Lin

I've listened to this song Wo Bu Nan Guo (I'm not Sad) By Stephanie Sun, it was introduced to me by a close friend.

Check out the song here:
She sings with such emotions, i can even feel the sadness. I especially like the chorus.
Translation of the chorus:
I truly understand that you are not favouring the new against the old.
It's me. I haven't,
Stayed by your side when you were lonely
Don't look at me and said that I have loved before, and shouldn't be too hurt.
I am not sad, this is nothing.
It is just that why the tears are flowing, I do not know.
Just let me go, and get started in savouring freedom.
There are many memories, and even the shadow of you can fill my life.
I am not being weak, you of all people should understand this.
Though I would be lonely, this shall be my last concession.


JJ Lin 's Di Ji Ge Yi Bai Tian (The Nth 100 Days)

This song was written by JJ Lin when he lost his voice and was closed off from everyone. He was greatly depressed that day in the hospital because he thought he couldn't sing anymore. He wrote this song because that day felt like 100 days long.


This two singers are no doubt the pride of our country. :)

I am sure all of Se7en's fans are excited for his live comeback stage!
He is under YG Entertainment.
I will introduce his new song... Se7en - Better Together mv!!

Personally, i think the mv is good!
Especially his dance and especially because he is a good dancer ~
Although there are many juniors in the company.
but i guess, Se7en is still the most experienced one in their company! :)

It gained 4million plus views and still ongoing..

After listening to his music, are you in love with his voice?
I'm shock when I listened to this performance,
because it's too awesome, that I had goosebumps. haha.

His recent's album is also a masterpiece!

I feel that he's one of the most talented boy singer.
he's very hardworking and he love to sing since small.
he still have to hide it from his parents that he joined the competition,
as his parents opposes, but finally, his parents supported him.

His passion for singing is really great.
I envy people with such passion,
I would like to have a passion to work towards to..!

One and only TVXQ ♥
Annyeonghasaeyo!
I am here to share to all of you about a South Korean boy band.
They are TVXQ.Very popular in Korea and Asian countries such as Japan and Thailand.
A group of talented guys. They have good vocals and individual talents.
You will not regret knowing them after listening to their songs.
They are Korea and Asia's pride



I am going to introduce one of their songs.
Mirotic - TVXQ.
The most important part of this dance move is the part where they
put their hand on their chin and and move their shoulder from side to side.
Their concept for this song is sexy and manly.
Please enjoy! :)


So are you falling in love with them? ^^

Fahrenheit & Aaron Yan
Hmm, I know Cheryl will post Kpop so how about a change for me?
Presenting...

Fahrenheit Fei Lun Hai

Haha, this was my favourite C-Pop Band since 4 years ago. And my favourite member is ...

Aaron Yan!

Aaron Yan feat. Jade Liu - Ti Amo

(:
I like mostly all fahrenheit's songs.
Like this one:

Fahrenheit - Lonely Ferris Wheel

This songs has a deep meaning to it. The Chorus sings:
"Just one more, one more round is enough. She still doesn't have someone to rely on. How I wish, to reach out to her, and give her a tight hug but I cannot reach her. One more round to accompany her is enough. Not afraid of her tears which may rust my heart. After the ride closed, who will know?"
The translation is vaguely like this, i self-translated it so it might not be correct.

Oh Yes, in August, their new album will be out! Haha, excited?
