It's been a while hasn't it? It's nearly a year I haven't updated this blog. Where have I been missing? I got a job and I forgot about this place. Well, I did visit this place a few times but I was too lazy to update anything.

It's Eid festive right now. I didn't go to my mom's hometown like I usually do so I spent Eid in the city. Not really splendid like usual.

I'll update again when something comes up. Aite!

This is what I generated from "xhochy's Last.fm nationality statistics":

Seems that most of the music I've been playing is Japanese music. I thought I've listened to much English music. Well, Japanese music has always been no.1 to me. While Korean music is no.2.
Anyway, I still can't get over T-ara's Eunjung <3

It's time for the new artists in Korea to ride along the "Hallyu". We have new artists in the music scene very recently. The girls - HAM (Heart & Mind), JQT, Secret, Lady's Collection, and Top.Az. The guys - MBLAQ, BEAST/B2ST, and RUN. The group who is going to debut soon - Child of Empire. Too many? I think so too. With the flood of new artists on the market, who's gonna come out top? Rivalry between artists is normal but since there are too many groups debuted recently and groups that are gonna debut soon, it's hard for us listeners to pick out our favorite. They need to come out with something new and refreshing for us to enjoy.

For now, I'm kinda having my eyes on these two new girl groups, JQT and Secret. I have listened to their debut songs and watched their music videos. I think JQT's "I Fell For You" is pretty catchy and Secret's "I Want You Back" is pretty good.
JQT's "I Fell For You" has a JPop-ish feeling to it. Para para sounds and concept. I saw the MV. I can say that their "goth" outfits weren't suitable for that kind of music. They were like singing rock music when in reality their music is far from that sound.
While Secret's "I Want You Back" is a R&B song. It has this sweet and lovely R&B melody to it. I can't stop listening to it for now. Have been playing it on loop.

JQT, Secret, MBLAQ, and BEAST/B2ST has made their stage debut on M.Countdown last night. I saw JQT and Secret. Gotta say I love their performances especially Secret.
For tonight Music Bank, Secret and BEAST are gonna make their stage debut. Hope all the best for them!

Finally, it's time for 2009 Dream Concert! It was held in Seoul's World Cup Stadium last night. The performers are Big Bang, Super Junior, SNSD, 2PM, SHINee, Jewelry, 4minute, 2NE1, Kara, Chae Yeon, Wheesung, Park Hyo Shin, T-ara, Supernova, f(x), Kim Tae Woo, 2AM, MC Mong and Super Junior-M.

I'm looking forward to see SNSD, 4minute, 2NE1, Kara, f(x), and T-ara and Supernova. I wanna see T-ara and Supernova perform their new TTL.Listen.2. It was released yesterday and I have been listening to it. It's awesome <3 I've even seen the MV teaser and I'd say it's gonna come out great with the new dance moves and outfits. But I think Gwang Su's dishwasher gloves does not look appropriate. O.O Anyway, can't wait to see the full MV. Damn, Eunjung looks fine! I can't stop thinking about her since I saw her the first time. You're my favorite, girl! <3 And T-ara and Supernova should join together, permanently :)

Lately I've been dreaming about celebrities. Most of them were sad though. I had a happy dream with Jooyeon of After School once. Man, that was good. We were a couple in a high school. We were holding hands, I put my hand on shoulder, kissed her cheek and forehead, played around and all of this we were doing in public at the school. We didn't have any shame, did we? Hahaha
I had a dream of SNSD's Jessica and Kara's Goo Hara but those ended sadly. Sad endings! I actually dreamt of After School's Ga Hee and Beka, and 2NE1's Dara but I forgot what they were about.

Another Chuseok special program broadcasted on SBS and it's called "Idol Big Show" where they gathered famous singers and groups to let them perform on stage. This isn't your ordinary music show that only shown performances of singers but they also added some surprises. These surprises were an interview of Kara by G-Dragon, an interview of So Nyuh Shi Dae by 2AM, So Nyuh Shi Dae's in their practice room practicing their debut song "Into The New World", 2NE1 doing their unplugged version of "I don't care" with G-Dragon, and the "be-with-Kara-for-one-day". The list of artists who were participating were none other than So Nyuh Shi Dae, Kara, 2NE1, 4minute, After School, G-Dragon, Big Bang, 2AM and Lee Seung Gi.

Kara performed happily on stage with trot music. After that, Nicole and Hara danced to Madonna's "Music" and were joined by their fellow members with hip hop dances and finished it off with cool and sexy dances.
Lee Seung Gi performed his song on his 4th album, "Love is...".
So Nyuh Shi Dae performed debut hit single, "Into The New World" and "Gee", while Hyoyeon, Yuri and Sooyoung danced to "The Boogie That Be" and "Break Away".
4minute performed their "MUZIK", while HyunA did a solo performance by dancing to Usher's "Bad Girl".
After School performed Pussycat Dolls' "Buttons".
2AM performed as Dirty Eyed Girls and they performed Brown Eyed Girls' "Abracadabra".
2NE1 performed the remix of "Fire", "Let's Go Party", and Big Bang's "Last Farewell".
G-Dragon performed his latest hit "Breathe".
G-Dragon and Dara of 2NE1 were performing together as a couple singing and dancing to G-Dragon's "Hello" and even surprised us with his fake kissing behind his cap with Dara.
The most surprising part was the appearance of Big Bang because it has been 9 months they haven't appeared on screen. This time Big Bang performed "Last Farewell" right after 2NE1 done with their own "Last Farewell" and left. 2NE1 joined them again performing "Last Farewell". Their final act was performing "How Gee" before saying goodbye to the show.

I think YG family were monopolizing the whole show. o.o
Well, the "Big Bang and 2NE1 performing together" idea was good. Since we haven't seen Big Bang on tv for the last 9 months.

I'm a happy bird because I got to see Kara and So Nyuh Shi Dae! XD
There's nothing more valuable in this world than to see Kara in their dormitory, without make ups, waking up, eating breakfast together, chatting, and bidding Jiyoung farewell before she left for school. The interview with G-Dragon was hella funny. Nicole was teaching G-Dragon on how to do the butt dance though I think what G-Dragon pulled was a hip hop dance. :P Can't resist it, can you, G-Dragon? Hahaha...
I also got to see So Nyuh Shi Dae performed their debut song which made me fell in love with them at first sight!
All I can say now is... damn! It wasn't enough. More of So Nyuh Shi Dae and Kara please~

Some pictures of Kara and their dorm:
