Woolim merge SM C&C

If it isn't clear enough, I have been a fan of SM Town since the beginning of my Kpop days. Regardless of rumors I've read or the scandals surround with SM Entertainment, my heart belongs to SM Town. Simply put, I would never be the Kpop fan I am today without SM.

I was ecstatic to find out about SM C&C, the side label that manages top actors (Jang Dong Gun, Kim Haneul, Han Jimin) and top MC (Kang Ho Dong, Shin Dong Yup). Not too sure about dramaland but SM certainly had huge impact on variety shows. I'm happy to see more of my favorite idols on variety show as of result.

However the news of Woolim Entertainment merge with SM C&C was shocking and I can't help but to feel bitter about it. I have no bad feelings about Woolim artistes, in fact I do like them. It feels different from San.E going to Brand New Music, because that is a match made in heaven. Woolim and SM? It's just an odd match.

I am slightly happy when the management insisted that they are not going to change style, but now there's rumors about Woolim artistes joining SM concert. Oh gosh, please no. Let it be separate. I love my SM Town interaction and to put Woolim artiste to the mix? I don't even want to imagine.

I wish Woolim artiste can get better promotion, but not interfere with my SM Town. I don't even want Woolim trainees to learn SM style. Let's keep it SM and Woolim separately.

Phantom 다알아 Lyrics (Bahasa Malaysia Lirik)

Saya sudah tahu

Saya sudah tahu hanya dengan pandangan wajahmu
Saya sudah tahu walaupun kamu tak bercakap panjang
Bertapa kamu mencintaiku
Bertapa kamu kasihiku

Saya sudah tahu bertapa kamu kasihi saya yang tak bermakna
Walaupun kamu tidak berkata, matamu yang melihat saya beritahu
Saya berterima kasih untuk kewujudanmu dalam hidupku
Saya tidak tahu pun jika I boleh menerima kelayakan cinta ini

Saya tidak tahu tetapi dahulu, hujan jatuh ke hatiku
Kegembiraan hanya mengelak saya
Cinta saya mungkin nampak seperti penakut sebalik perang
Tetapi kamu memberi saya keberanian, memberitahu saya bahawa saya boleh
Bahawa dunia ini masih lagi keperikemanusiaan
Tangan kecil kamu memegang tangan saya dengan erat
Dan saya tak akan melepaskannya

Saya sudah tahu hanya dengan pandangan wajahmu
Saya sudah tahu walaupun kamu tak bercakap panjang
Saya sudah tahu, wajahmu memberitahu
Kamu sentiasa berada di belakangku
Saya sudah tahu, kamu tinggal denganku walaupun pedih
Kamu menerima kelemahanku
Sekarang saya memelukmu, kamulah yang terakhir
Kamu sudah tahu

Biasanya saya berkata bahawa hidup ini susah dan kamu benar-benar mendengariku
Pada malam gelap yang susah untuk mengharungi bersendirian
Kamu berjalan di lorong impianku bersamaku
Kamu menghancuri segala dinding besar untuk saya
Kamu mementingkan kebimbangan remeh saya dahulu
Dahulu saya mengharungi dengan bangga kerana kegembiraan sudah tiada
Tetapi kamu buat saya sebagai watak utama melalui konsert ini
Sekarang saya tahu segala, kamu yang membuat diri saya sendiri
Itulah sebab saya boleh bernafas dan hidup
Sekarang segala sangat bermakna kepada say
Semua kebencian yang mengikuti saya telah lesap
Terima kasih kerana memberi hidup sebegini
Untuk membenarkan saya untuk dikasihi
Untuk tinggal bersama saya

Saya sudah tahu hanya dengan pandangan wajahmu
Saya sudah tahu walaupun kamu tak bercakap panjang
Saya sudah tahu, wajahmu memberitahu
Kamu sentiasa berada di belakangku
Saya sudah tahu, kamu tinggal denganku walaupun pedih
Kamu menerima kelemahanku
Sekarang saya memelukmu, kamulah yang terakhir
Kamu sudah tahu

Saya rasa bersalah kerana saya tidak memiliki banyak untuk kamu
Saya kenal hati kamu
Saya sudah tahu walaupun kamu tidak berkata cinta

Saya sudah tahu hanya dengan pandangan wajahmu
Saya sudah tahu walaupun kamu tak bercakap panjang
Saya sudah tahu, wajahmu memberitahu
Kamu sentiasa berada di belakangku
Saya sudah tahu, kamu tinggal denganku walaupun pedih
Kamu menerima kelemahanku
Sekarang saya memelukmu, kamulah yang terakhir
Kamu sudah tahu

P/s Heart in malay is "Jantung" but we normally use "hati" to express love which means liver. So yes, it is funny when I see people touching the chest when saying "hati" We don't use "jantung" because it just sound weird. I guess the story behind it is that "hati' sounds similar to heart, that's how we come to use it.

Untouchable - Call Me feat Andrew Choi

It seem unreal that 2 years has passed and my boys are back from military! Haha I really did "survive" 2 years without their new music. Their last single "You You" was a fun upbeat song and made me wanting more. Now back with "Call Me" with Kpop Star 2 Top3 finalist, Andrew Choi. This song was produced by the talented Andrew Choi himself.

The song begin with soulful RnB vocals by Andrew, makes you drawn in slowly. The rhythm is easy on the ears and I always had like Andrew's voice.

I get happier at Sleepy's and The Action rap parts, I almost teared a little. I miss these guys. I'm not an expert on hip hop, but I love the way they rap and their voice are always great.

I hope for more songs by them! Where's Hwayoung by the way, not the female Hwayoung.. His voice was great, too bad he's not always promoting.

I wrote this post last month, forget to post it up as I got busy in the middle. I didn't watch them perform this song. I wish TS spend less time on BAP and focus more on Secret and Untouchable.

I'm loving Phantom I Already Know (다알아)

I didn't have to blog, You Already Know that I love Phantom! (Didyouseewhatidid!) I blog this as soon as I heard it. I'm such a fan.

The MV though.. Makes me jealous! I really wanted to go the concert so bad! I still remember the date. OH so jealous. If I couldn't go to their 2nd concert, the universe hates me. A little trivia, the clips are contributed by the people who went the concert! Awesome!

The song is so short though, like less than 3 minutes. It's enough to captivate me but I wish it was longer..more Sanchez's adlib. The teaser didn't have Sanchez's part..was mad and now the song is short? Arggh.

Sanchez and Hanhae voices, omg it's like eating honey, very sweet and good for you! Kiggen, that deep voice is like velvety creamy sweet cream. It's lunch time when I wrote this. I'm sorry. I've read the lyrics translation, I'll have toothache right now, it is even more sweeter. These guys are so romantic. Have you read Like Cho Yong Pil and Come as you are lyrics translation? Any girl that marries them in the future, I'm so jealous. All mistakes are forgiven. Like seriously.

Could they be performing this? I'm not sure because they didn't promote Come as you are, but I'm excited anyway. I'm excited for anything Phantom!

P/s Happy 1st Anniversary Phantom! Phantomism for life!

You in my arms

Even with just one album, the late Yoo Jae Ha is a singer that many talented singers of today still talk about.

It was on Immortal Song 2 episode on Yoo Jae Ha that makes me want to share his talent. It was a great episode. I highly recommend to watch Ha Dong Kyun's performance.

The arrangement was apt for Ha Dong Kyun but it didn't stray too far from the original. Gilgu Bonggu harmony was just perfect. I really love the combination of their voice along with Ha Dong Kyun. I was impressed with his last performance on Immortal Song 2, but this performance was even better and umm he won! SPOILER! Haha

The lyrics are poetic, it is unfortunate that Kpop only had one album of him. Do check out his album!
