While I was absent from the kpop world (and this blog)….

I have no idea how I had time to blog last year during the week, but this year I barely make it on the internet unless I need to research something. Anyway enough of my complaining, I hope you all have had a great week. I’m thinking about making a This week in Kpop segment on Fridays if this becomes a constant thing, but I’m not sure yet. You can consider this the first  unofficial entry of it. And these are in no particular order.

1. BTOB releases audio and  video teaser for their comeback

To be honest, I don’t exactly remember BTOB. I’m thinking they’re the group that debuted with Imagine or Insane but I can’t remember. That’s how I know they weren’t that memorable. Wow, their main track I’m assuming, is supposed to be a 180 degree transformation but again, I don’t remember how they used to be. To be honest the audio teaser doesn’t have me excited whatsoever, but I’ll let you guys listen for yourself.

Now watching the video teaser, I remember them now. There was one guy I could always point out, which I guess you could call him my favorite. The video looks like it’ll be quite interesting so I guess I should be looking forward to this comeback.

2. Rookie group 24K releases Hurry Up

24K is made up of 2K and 4K, whom the latter I am familiar with. I remember they came out with a ballad that I wanted to like but it bored me to tears. I guess they were only sub units and 24K is the main group.

I don’t think I should be struggling to be finishing the video. The thing with the video, I could care less about the song, is that I feel that I’ve seen it all before. This is a no in my book.

3.  B.A.P releases I Remember with Daehyun and Crash

Let me just say I love B.A.P. They are seriously my favorite rookie group this year. Let me also say I am also glad that I have yet to order No Mercy because I have to get the repackaged album. Crash is great because it shows another side of B.A.P, I swear I’ve seen many sides of them through several songs. It’s a more light upbeat track, which I like. The video shows them acting cute so that’s a plus ^.^

I already love I Remember so adding Daehyun’s perfect voice just makes me love the song even more. Like seriously, why is his voice so amazing?

4. U-KISS releases Cinderella 

I don’t know what it is but it seems like every track U-KISS releases since Neverland, I haven’t been fond of. This is no exception.

5. Seo In Guk and Eunji’s deut, All For You

The last duet Eunji did I couldn’t stand, although I like her voice. Her voice can easily overshadow someone else’s voice. I really think it depends on who she sings with whether to duet works or not.

In this case, I think her voice fits with the other. However, I am not a fan of this song.

6. Boyfriend releases Be My Shine

Not too bad actually, very reminiscent of JE groups.

7. FTISLAND releases teaser to I Wish

I was hoping for a song like  Severely  but I’m loving the vibes I’m getting from the teaser.

Day 12: 20 Day Kpop Bias Challenge

Day 12: Your bias in A-Pink

  • Eun Ji
This should surprise many because I just don’t do girl groups. I like some actually like three but I’m not in love with them. But APink is definitely on my radar. I feel they have plenty of potential to be great. My favorite in the group is Eun Ji just because of her close to amazing voice. It’s definitely better than average but it doesn’t blow me away. I must say that this cover really made me think twice about her.

Yoseob is such a cutie but he should never be paired with EunJi again.

Even listening to the full audio, I still don’t think their voices blend well together. EunJi has a great voice and Yoseob has a great voice but together it just doesn’t work. She sounds like she’s drowning Yoseob out. I think what it is is her voice is just too high for Yoseob’s.

Best vocals from a rookie group.

It’s a pretty known fact that I’m fond of the rookie girl group, A Pink. Every time I watch one of their music videos, I always hear about EunJi. And I’m the type of person that it takes a while for me to learn names in a group. Even after watching this, I still can’t tell you who she is.
