안녕! Hello!

Welcome to the world of K-pop and other Korean stuff
I kinda wanted to share my obsession with you, hope you won't mind it^^

Don't be a stranger!
I'll be delighted if you comment here, so we can discuss our favourite songs, shows, etc

My picks: Best of 2015 in K-pop

Another year has passed and another gazillion songs were released. Many of them were great and comparing two last years, 2015 was musically better (and every K-pop fan will tell you so, I'm pretty sure). SHINee comeback in 1 year and 7 months, Big Bang comebacks in like 3 years or something which slayed every single chart, B.A.P's return, BTS first win on music show and so on. This was a great year for K-pop!
I personally listened to so many songs this year and decided to make a list of my favourite ones. And let me tell you something, this wasn't easy.
So many great songs = tough choice.
At first, I didn't want to include BTS and GOT7 into this list because I love every single of their songs, but then I couldn't just not put them on the list. So I chose one song from each, as well as for others, only one song per artist (I'm looking at you Big Bang). Also, I planned to comment each song, but aas there's too many songs and too little time, I'm just going to list them~

15. 4minute - Crazy

14. Infinite - Bad
13. EXO - Call Me Baby (well, it was this or Love ME Right, both great songs)
12. Mamamoo - Um Oh Ah Yeah (such fun MV to watch heheh)
11. IU - Twenty Three
10. Rainbow - Black Swan (not gonna lie, I was impressed with this song and surprised how good it is)
9. Big Bang - Bang Bang Bang (classic duh xD I bet this song is on most "Best of 2015" lists)
8.DAY6 - Congratulations (love, love, LOVE this song and love Jae hahah)
7. Jessi - Ssenunni (badass song for when you feel badass)
6.Hyuna - Roll Deep (not a big fan of the MV though)
5. Park Jimin - Hopeless love (amazing vocals :O)
4.Seventeen - Shining Diamonds (not a song they promoted, but my favourite)
3.B.A.P - Young, Wild and Free (one of the groups I really like, B.A.P are back!!!)
2. GOT7 - If you do

And for number one, drum roll please... although you probably know which song is it hahahah

1. BTS - Dope

Without doubt, 2015 was BTS year. they won 9 times on music programs against PSY, Big Bang, EXO and other big names from big companies, done their world tour and Korean/Asian tour. They were up against so many things, both negative (haters ugh -.-) but also many, many positive ones.
It was so hard for me to choose only one song, but in the end it was "Dope". They broke records with it and even featured on Finebros' react channel. Not only it's fun-to-dance-to song, but also conveys genuine message (not deep and touching love story, but rather boys' attitude towards themselves and society). Well done!

There were many more great songs I wanted to mention, but couldn't, so I would
recommend watching this awesome mashup of 2015 Kpop songs~

May I say, that last part was awesome!

Summer Hits of 2013

Oh yeah, I'm back! I know I haven't been around here for ages and I'm so sorry (mianhae)>.<

Summer has ended (long time ago) but it left behind some nice songs. So I decided to make a list of all K-pop songs that I've been listening throughout this summer. Also, at the very end will be Japanese releases because I think you're more interested in those, so they'll be easy to find^^

f(x) - Rum Pum Pum

I'll start off this list with girls - f(x)'s Rum Pum Pum or what is the Korean title saying - First wisdom tooth. Really nice song, though not my favourite. I must say I kinda expected more than this, but don't get me wrong, I like "Rum Pum Pum", I ahd it on replay most of the summer :)

Apink - NoNoNo

I just recently (couple of months ago) found out about these girls, when one of them - Nauen, got married to Taemin of SHINee (not really married, but in TV programe "We got married"). I really like their concept - cute and pretty^^ And this song is cute, catchy and fun to dance to :)

Henry - 1-4-3 (I Love You)

I have never knew that 143 stands for "I love you", because of number of letters in each word - and I was confused why 143 is the title of the song. But now I understand everything - even why is 486 also "i love you" but in Korean
Henry's second song, a bit more cheerful than the "Trap" but with kinda same concept. Really, really like this song. It's on my replay even now^^

B.A.P. - Hurricane/Badman

B.A.P were back again - no wonder, I don't think they ever had enough time to rest - with Coffee shop, Hurricane and Badman MVs from their Badman Album. I already mentioned Coffee shop in post below or below below, I'm not sure xD^^ All three of the songs are quite different - Coffe shop being really nice, slow song, Hurricane being funky, cheerful song and Badman being "dark" and cool song^^

Teen Top - Rocking

Catchy, kinda techno (?) song. That one dance step that looks extra cool and complicated, I did not even want to try to repeat that, even some of the members got hurt doing it :/

Crayon Pop -Bar Bar Bar

This song became real hit in Korea. They were saying it's going to become new "Gangnam style" and I'm still waiting xD
At first, I didn't really liked the song, but when I watched it few times, it stucked in my head. Theye even made "global version" which is kinda similar to "Gangnam style", but I still think the original one is better^^

Early Summer Hits

Summer just started and comebacks are coming!^^ I present you latest songs that are kicking off this summer's fun

MBLAQ is finally back! Their's "Smoky girl", released June 4th, has really catchy tune and has a beat so it's easy to dance, as long as you're not trying the original choreography kekeke and may I say, Thunder totally rocks that pink hair

SISTAR's back with another sexy song! Released June 10th and having more than 3,8 million views, this song already won 1st places on Mnet's M! Countdown (2 times), KBS's Music Bank (2 times), MBC's Music Core (2 times), SBS's Inkigayo (also 2 times) and MBC's Music Show Champion (1 time). Moreover, they also took first places on a large number of charts. Well done, SISTAR, well done!

On June 7th was a debut of a SM entertainment's new solo singer, Henry Lau, though he was already known 'cause he is a part of Super Junior M. Anyways, his song "Trap" is really nice, kinda slower song, but still catchy. He sang it with a little help of SHINee's Taemin may I say he looks amazing and Super Junior's Kyuhyun, but I'm glad it's still obvious and clear that it's Henry's song^^

EXO's comeback was one of the most awaited ones! Although thier comeback was May 30th, I didn't have the chance to talk about it...
When I first listened to this song, I didn't like it at all. But after listening it for few times, it got kinda better and now I'm like "Geurae wolf naega wolf auuu- A saranghaeyo" all the time
Also, I have a feeling that I'm the only K-pop fangirl that is not going crazy for EXO maybe I'm wrong, don't know And I don't even know the members - except Kai - but I do know most of their names and faces, just can't fit them together...

B.A.P's "Coffee Shop", released June 27th, is one of those relaxing songs you're listening while trying to fall asleep or while you're resting with your eyes closed And, OMG, Zelo is singing

I will stop here or else this is going to be a reeeaally long post^^
So, do you have your favourites from this list or some songs that you want to add?
