One warm word

I want to say I hated it but in some ways I don't exactly hate it. 

I had no expectation towards the drama because it wasn't recap by dramabeans. It's kinda weird but I tend to watch dramas that dramabeans don't recap and skipped the ones they did. That's sort of good since I can watch more..usually after reading recaps, I don't watch it much unless it's good like You Who Came from the stars. 

The trailer got me intrigued because Ji Jin Hee is part of the cast, and I was assuming that it might be about rekindle love or something really sweet. Well spoiler alert, you got them at the last episode. I probably stayed for JJH, but I grew to love Han Hye Jin and Lee Sang woo interactions.

Their daughter is so adorable, though some parts are too hurtful to be real. The girl needs some counselling because there are things that kids should never hear. 

The drama made me hate  Ji Jin Hee... which is bad. It's an iffy character. He seems like wholesome person but he doesn't have any sense of remorse. The dongsaeng couple are cute but we already know what's coming, so it was a bit regretful.

The drama taught me one thing, don't watch another drama that have affairs.

Album Review: SoReal Story

As I listen to this mini album,I got confuse as what SoReal suppose to be. The album felt experimental because it doesn't feel like an album for a ballad group. Then again, I don't usually listen to albums that much.

l. Missing You feat. Choi Hyun Jun.
Gaps! A full English song and it's acapella?! Okay it is under a minute but I love acapella! The English usage seems easy so none of those Konglish. (Not that it matters.) I wonder why they had to include Choi Hyun Joon, but it does sound good.

2. 심장이 말했다 (Shimjangi malhaettda)

The main title song. Refer previous post

3. 뻔히보여 (bbeonhiboyeo)
This song sound like a typical idol song that probably suits the clubs with it's heavy beats and electronic sound. I really like Jang Moon voice against the electronic sound. While I like him singing ballad, he does sound great in Pop genre. It's weird that the other members sound like generic ballad along with the rhythm.

4.남자답게 (namja dabke)

My favorite track of the album, I'd say they should have gone with this song as their main title. This genre is on trend and it sounds great. It even has a great hook on the chorus. I think this song shows more strength on each members better. I guess it's on the upbeat tempo that requires dance routine.

5.  한마디 (han madi) One Word

This would be another good main title song. This is the textbook definition of Kpop ballad song. The thing about ballads, it's a 50-50 chance. It's either a memorable track or not. Ballad tend to sound similar so unless it has an element that makes it memorable, it's boring. I assume they didn't choose this track as the main because it's forgetable and suits autumn best. It's not a bad song just boring

6. My heart says (inst)

It's worst without the vocal. doesn't make me want to sing along.

Soreal

Star Empire song choices has always felt lackluster. Despite knowing that, I can't deny I'm less than happy with the song choosen for SoReal.

My Heart Says is a bright ballad song that sounds like a Christmas carol. The song starts with Jang moon and my heart squeals in happiness. I will try to memorize the other members name. I think the group voices matches each other well. Honestly this song bores me to sleep. For a debut song, if it wasn't for my love for Jang Moon, I probably ignore it. It would have been better if they debut during autumn, the season of sappy ballads. Now it's like the worst time to debut for ballad type group.

In the seas of idols, I hope that this group will become popular because we need singers that focuses more on vocals.

Troy

As more I learn about Troy, I find everything surprising. I know bits of Troy through Bumkey and Kanto since these two are more involve in music where as JaeWoong and ChanWoo are mostly cameo.

I didn't really have any expectation but I trust BNM to bring in good music. I knew Kanto and Chanwoo are rappers but I didn't know JaeWoong is one too. So that's 3 rappers 1 vocalist? The opposite of idols...lol.

As I look on their profiles, I find out that Bumkey is the second youngest! I know Bumkey was the leader so I thought he was the oldest considering he is 84 line born and since Kanto is 94 line.. I kinda assume Chanwoo and Jaewoong is similar to Kanto's age. Now we know BNM doesn't age discriminate.

I'm enjoying Green Light more than I normally would, as the genre is not my favorite. I love the dynamic of the song and the synergy between member seem smooth. The voice and style of each rappers are actually different which is easy to differentiate. Kanto's style is aggressive, Chan woo's more laidback and Jaewoong's sneaky? LOL that's what I get from this song.

Good to know that Bumkey is involved in producing the song. As usual, I love his voice. As much I love his solo works, I do look forward for more new songs by Troy.

Long awaited debuts!!!

I am just really excited that two of my long awaited groups have finally debut! Brand New Music's Troy and Star Empire's SoReal.

I have been waiting for SoReal debut sooo long I actually blog about it several times. I wanted Jangmoon to redebut since the disbandment of A'ST1 which was like 4 years ago. I'm so happy, you have no idea!

As for Troy, they were going to debut last year but Bumkey's solo work was great so it got postponed. Anyway.. I trust BNM to bring me more great news.

I will try to do reviews later. So excited.

I'm Loving CN BIue Can't Stop

I'm not big on bands because I'm more of a Pop genre fan but it is always good to switch it up a little.

After their successful debut with "I'm Lonely" I was a fan but after that their music seem similar that I lost interest for a while. Can't Stop change that, this song is fresh and I'm loving it.

The music is rich with instruments, I love seeing Yong Hwa on the piano. I'm a little upset I didn't see orchestra on the video because it would add glamour on the MV.

Speaking of the MV, the model was gorgeous! I love the random props on the video and the set is beautiful. I wish there were more shoots of other members, I know Yong Hwa is the main vocalist but give some love to other members!

I'm not sure how well this song chart but it goes against tough competitors! I hope it charted better.

Mr.Mr

If I don't write anything about the Queen of Idols, I'm a freaking lousy blogger! Joking.

I just watched the MV and as usual, I am mind-blown by SNSD beauties! All of them are so pretty and their outfits, 0MG made for them. Perfect hairs! That messy puffy hair on Sunny is gorgeous! My only complain is those horrible effects. Novelty, yes but it's covering too much of SNSD beauty... Imagine how much beauty without those blinding effects! DIE!

At first, I wasn't loving the song because of the heavy beats and sound effect but I do like it better than IGAB. As I listen to it more, I find the charm in it. I am pretty sure the performance will be better. I can't wait for them to perform this song and slay every idols.
