A Touch of K-Pop + Birthday Post: July '13

Today is my birthday! **Party Time!**

So much happened this month! A good thing for me, because for some illogical reason I can’t nail down, I’ve been less into dramas this month and way more into Kpop. Or maybe that’s just because July saw the comebacks of quite a few of my favorite groups, and then some. 

Now before I start endlessly singing “SHADOW Shadow shadow…” in a loop for the next 5 hours, I should probably note something important. Read from the bottom up.

That’s right! I’m going to KCON. Call it a late birthday present. Call it my first holiday in a year. Call it a ‘my husband loves me so much that he’ll let me spend a ton of money to fly to Los Angeles at the end of August right before we move to a new house’ present. When he knows all I’ll do when I get there is embarrass myself fangirling about Teen Top and G-Dragon. The best part is- my mom is going with me. She’s almost as fangirly if not more fangirly than myself about our boys, and if someone so much as mentions Niel’s face in a deprecating tone, watch out! She’ll sock ‘em dead! I’ll keep the camera handy.

A Touch of K-Pop: March '13

It's the middle of week, nobody's home but me and my cat - I had planned to watch upwards of 7 drama episodes this day from 4 different shows I'm currently watching. What do I do instead? Get ridiculously side-tracked by K-Pop. As usual. 

Welcome to my new feature, where once a month I discuss my current thoughts on K-Pop: what's new, what's old, whatever thoughts that suddenly run through my head! Basically, an excuse to dish, fangirl, wail or bemoan, and link all kinds of brightly colored MVs. Bear with me for a bit. 

What's New:
Infinite's comeback with MV "Man in Love" and by the way, all I noticed was the CAT!  I like Infinite, I really do - but once I got over "Paradise" and "Be Mine" (dance practice versions), every other song of theirs takes months for me to warm up to. I suspect this new one will be no different. 

Man, I'm in love... with this kitty! Also, Hoya. But I think that has a lot to do with his role in Answer Me, 1997 (and being an awesome dancer) more than anything else. 


Read more for praises of EYK, itunes gift cards, Zico's eyelashes, G-Dragon's red lips, and - yes, I'm going to say it: Teen Top. Also, what on earth has P.O. been doing lately??
