Song of the Week: Crazy - TeenTop

Hey guys! I know the "Song of the Week" was by TeenTop too, but they recently made their comeback. With this comeback, they've really matured and left their "flower boy" image that was portrayed in "No More Perfume For You". I also like how L. Joe is the main focus of this music video. In the previous MVs, most of the attention was on Neil and Chunji, but this time, L. Joe got the most screentime. Hopefully we'll see Chanjo, CAP, and Ricky as the main character in upcoming MVs! It's nice if all the members can have the chance to be in the spotlight. :)
So check out the MV below, and I hope you'll like it as much as I do!

Variety Show: Running Man

So recently I started watching a Korean variety show called "Running Man". Running Man (런닝맨) is a South Korean variety show; a part of SBS's Good Sunday lineup, along with K-pop Star (K팝 스타). It was first aired on July 11, 2010. This show is classified as an "urban action variety"; a never-before-seen new genre of variety shows. The MCs and guests complete missions in a landmark to win the race. It's a really great variety show and I would recommend anyone who has a good sense of humor to watch it. :D

This variety show is still active as of now and I think they just aired episode 74. If you want links to the subbed episodes or an overview of what has happened in the episodes so far, let me know by leaving a comment below!

Here is one part that had me rofl-ing...literally. hahaha enjoy!
Background info (so you're not totally lost XD): RM episode 3 - Guests Goo Hara from kpop girl group KARA and also actor Lee Chun Hee. The winning team of this game gets 50,000 won and in the end, the team w/ the most money gets to leave and go home early.

Telepathy Game: So in this game, two members from the same team sit next to each other and put on headphones that are blasting loud music so that they cannot hear each other. One member has a list of questions and the other member has a list of answers. They each shout out one question/answer at a time. The objective is to match the question with the answer. Since you can't hear what your partner is saying, it's a 'telepathy' game, but they're mostly just spewing out random answers. XD haha here are a few crazy question and answers during the game.

Song of the Week: Supa Luv by TeenTop

Hellooooooooo~

Okayokay I know I haven't done the "song of the week" thing for like what.....3 months? lol XD I'm sorry. I shall try to start that up again.

So the song of this week is........

Supa Luv by TeenTop

Personally, I like this song because it's a nice upbeat song that's good for dancing to. And of course, you can't leave out the attractiveness of the members XD. Niel's hair looks really cool in the MV and so does L. Joe's! Only a few guys can pull off having pink hair and still looking suave. Ohohoho and also C.A.P's muscles :D *drools* He's the only guy who really has very well developed muscles in TeenTop at this time, but I'm sure all the others will be catching up really soon ;D. Also, I like how in MV's he's always so outgoing, but in real life he's a nice and calm guy :) Chunji's power voice is awesome as usual, maknae Chanjo wears cool glasses and does an awesome arial, and even the visual maknae Ricky is pretty suave in this MV. Anyway, if you haven't heard this song, definitely go check it out!

Thanks for reading!

TeenTop fighting~!

Ooopsies

Ohmygoodness, I totally forgot to write in my blog...actually I didn't forget...I just haven't had the time. But now, I do because...WHOOOOO FINALS ARE FINAL-LY OVER! And thank goodness to that. I have been so stressed for the past week I think I aged like 2 years. ahaha. Sooo anyway, I'll be posting more stuffers soon!

Pepperkyu says hai :)

Replay Song of the Week: Be forever young with U-Kiss in Neverland!

Hey guys!

So I thought I'd start this new weekly post where I share with you the song that has been on my constant replay list this week. You may and may not already know these songs and maybe it's on your constant replay list too, who knows. Sooooo just enjoy the music! :)

Song of the week:

Neverland - U-Kiss

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3dF0Y7deb0&feature=topvideos_music

With Kissmes still iffy about the swap of members, NH Media really needed to take precautions on all and everything about the new U-Kiss. Nobody will ever replace Xander and Kibum, but I'm sure the company did what they thought was best for the group. Some Kissmes have grown to like AJ and Hoon, but there are many others who still long for Xander and Kibum's presence in U-Kiss. As of "Neverland" so far, it is doing quite well, already with more views than their first track with the new members, "0330".

The song is very catchy and has strong choreography, quite different than the "0330". According to mtvk.com,

"To boost its house fusion elements, “Neverland” makes use of a technique called Sound Design, where the vocals are treated individually to bring out each member’s unique charms, as an alternative to autotune. The track was produced by Ryan Jhun and his team at Marcan Entertainment, who also did Lee Hyori‘s “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang,” Super Junior‘s “No Other,” and SHINee‘s “Lucifer,” just to name a few." (http://mtvk.com/2011/08/31/u-kiss-welcomes-you-to-neverland/)

I just thought that bit of information was quite interesting. It's really cool because if you listened to all of them, you can sort of find the similarities in all of those songs. Haha check them out if you want! Well this is all for this week. Thanks for reading! :)

Puns away! (part 1)

Hey guys!

If you know me personally, the you probably know that I am a big fan of puns. A BIIIIIIIIIIIIIG fan. I will try to make a pun out of anything I see XD. They amuse me more than TV does. Some people say puns are the worst form of humor, but I beg to differ. Below are 10 pun pictures that I thought were clever and worth a knee slap.

However, I showed these 10 pun-pics to my rather logical, serious friend hoping that at least one of these would make her laugh, but no pun in ten did. ;D Enjoy!

Hate to break it to you, Odysseus, but your epic journey isn't as epic as a regular Homer Simpson day.

Well, that was a well thought out pun.

Ya givin' me an attitude, yo? Well you know what man, I ain't gonna take it. I gonna poke your fa-ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZAP

Oh dear...Vietnam may have to compete with Hungary for food.

Yeah, what up with that, man? One tent is plenty. No need for two.

Gnomes sure do get to places 'in time'.

Don't 'faceplant' when you see this pun!

'ironic' no?

Well, at least one of 'ems got a sense of direction.

Ohohohoho that's edgy. Err...if it did have edges, that is.

Wellllll? Is your knee red for all the puns worth knee-slapping? Did you lol? Or even a small chuckle? C'mon I know you did at some point x) Well, thanks for reading and look forward to the next punderful post! :D

Super Junior Comeback!



Super Junior's comeback will indeed "blow your mind" :)



Super Junior has finally returned to home base on MBC’s Music Core to promote their fifth official album.

They have once again rocked the stage and wooed their fans with a powerful choreography.
Their lead track is titled “Mr. Simple“, but their unique performance sure isnt! Check out their comeback performances on Music Core below. :)

"Mr. Simple"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGk_Zkki2fk&feature=player_embedded
The lyrics for “Mr. Simple” expresses a society’s loss of motivation and dreams due to their overly-complicated lifestyles. Their little hand flick move is catchy XD
(lol for a second there, I thought Donghae was Kangin and I got all excited, but it wasn't. :( Kangin and Kibum please come back soon. We miss you~)

"Super Man"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GhxA2pQPOw&feature=player_embedded
When I first saw the title, I thought it would be something like Super Junior M's "Super Girl" but it most definitely wasn't. They start out with rapping which was something different from their previous tracks. Oh and Siwon isn't in this performance. Have you guys noticed that he's rarely in these kind of performances? Well I guess Siwon's just a busy man. :)



Eunhyuk's new blond bowl cut. XD

"Mr. Simple" Music Video

It has a really catchy dance beat :)

 

From these guys.....



Sungmin, Shindong, Leeteuk, Kyuhyun, Siwon, Yesung, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Heechul, Ryeowook
(From Yesung's twitter)



...to these guys.

You can see the long way that Super Junior has come.

So ELFs and non-ELFs too- let's support Suju and cheer them on for all their hard work.

Super Junior fighting~!

Thanks for reading~

2 cool 2PM (:

One of my favorite idol groups is 2PM. I really like their music, performances, and especially their appearances on variety shows because they make it so entertaining to watch. Go check out some of 2PM's variety shows if you have the chance! Here's a fun picture I edited. Enjoy ^^



Here are some (not ALL because if I were to list all of their appearances, it would take...forever....) 2PM Variety Shows:

- 2PM Wild Bunny: Once you start watching, you won't be able to stop. They basically do random and un-idol like stuff. It had me ROFLing in no time. XD The episodes are subbed on Youtube, so go check it out!

- Star Golden Bell: They appear in various episodes as guests

- Star King: One of my favorites. Star King is a variety show that brings people from all over the world who have amazing talents and then they have popular idols interacting in the activities. :) 2PM and many other popular groups make various appearances on this show and if you haven't seen Nichkhun on this show, then you've been missing a LOT. Go check it out~

- 2PM Idol Army Show

- We Got Married: Nichkhun and his pretend wife Victoria from f(x) go on dates and more. It's a cute show :)

- Family Outing: Sadly, this variety show has been cancelled for a while now, but it was great while it lasted. Taecyeon is a regular MC on this show in Season 2. They basically go to different places, receive missions, cook meals, and act as a family, hence the name "Family Outing". Also every week they have a popular idol(s) come on the show and spend the day with them. Ever wanted to see the hidden side of your favorite idol? Well then this show is for you :) check out both Season 1 and Season 2!

If you want to check out these variety shows, you can probably find most of them on this awesome site:

Dream High Screenshot Edits

Hello! The post below is actually on my other blog http://www.clairethemusician.wordpress.com/ but I just thought I would put it on this blog because I thought you guys would like it. :) Below are scenes from the popular drama Dream High. I took certain frames and edited, added little quirks, and created subtitles of my own just out of my own amusement. Haha enjoy ^^

SamDong freaks out over a misunderstanding that JinGuk talked bad about his one and only love, HyeMi.

SamDong and JinGuk discuss HyeMi.  

JinGukkie gets jealous…ohhmy… 

SamDong rubs it in. kekeke. 

JinGuk tells him that HyeMi always cries in front of him. 

Aaaand there it is. Reverse psychology. 

SamDong wants to make sure JinGuk won't have feelings for HyeMi.  

lol look at his face (:

Ohhhh and here it is. The famous BROMANCE scene. ^^

He spies the underwear.  

He locates the underwear thief.

 He confronts the thief.

SamDong holds onto his pants for dear life.

 Beast JinGuk proceeds with the mission. Poor SamDong.

Teacher Kang comes in with bad news and finds… 

…this. Possibly the most awkward pose you could ever be found in. 

SamDong hears the bad news about his mom. 

Again…Biggest. Eyes. Evarrrr.
