shipwrecked-and-stranded:

K-Pop Fandom

It’s official, I’m a ‘Say A’ and this^ is my favorite K-Pop group, Miss A.

I wasn’t a big fan of K-Pop before, actually I don’t like K-pop at all. But that was a long time ago. I just never liked the idea of listening to a song that I could barely understand and I couldn’t stand when they make cutesy poses and weird dance steps, but everything changed.

Let me tell you the story how it all started. It started when my eldest sister got home from work and decided to watch a video of Yong Hwa (C.N. Blue) and Soe Hyun (Girls’ Generation) singing the Banmal Song for their ‘We Got Married’ show. That’s when everything felt like a domino effect, one minute she’s into this Korean artist, from Yyong Hwa to Kim Bum to Lee Min Ho and to G-Dragon (Big Bang) and now, she’s currently obsessing that dude (Manager) from Coffee Prince and he is currently her wall paper, talk about fan girling. Recently, she bought a book entitled ‘Popped’ by Chinggay Labrador, it’s about how a simple girl turned into a K-pop fan girl and how she ended up going out with her ultimate K-pop crush. I’m going to borrow it from her after my other sister finish reading it, haha.

My other sister, the second one was just like me, she doesn’t listen to K-pop songs too but our eldest is very persistent and very persuasive. She always ask my sister to watch and listen to this and that, all about the K-pop universe and eventually, my other sister was influenced and now became a big fan of Girls’ Generation and now knows the dances of almost every song from them.

I was very hard to convince. I’m into rock songs especially rock bands with female front singers. My playlist would be always be filled with songs from Paramore, VersaEmerge, We Are The In Crowd, Renfue and other non-female front bands like Panic! At The Disco, All Time Low, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and some were alternative musics from different artist. It was a long journey for me before I embraced K-Pop into my music life. Since both of my sisters would always speak about K-pop groups latest news and the likes, I was forced to know them so as to not be left behind. There were times when I was bored and all that I can find in our PC are K-pop videos, I started watching them especially Miss A’s ‘Goodbye Baby’ MV and everything else followed. And what really was the cherry on top of the cake *sorry, i just really need to use that phrase, haha* was when I started getting hooked in Korean drama’s especially ‘Dream High’ where Suzy (Miss A) was one of the main cast and played as Go Hye Mi and somehow, I found out that most of the cast where from different K-pop groups. Jin Guk (Taecyon) and Jason (Wooyong) were from 2pm, Pil Sook (IU) is a solo artist, Baek Hee (Eun Jeong) is from T-ara and JYP is also in the cast, he owns the JYP Entertainment label where Miss A, 2pm and the Wonder Girls are currently signed. See, I now know a lot about K-pop groups and their entertainment companies which sometimes scares me witless.

My sisters tells me every time I bash them about their K-pop obsession that, you can’t be a music lover if you won’t give this kind of music a chance in your life and it’s true. Aside from K-pop, I listen to J-Rock (Japanese Rock) and OPM (Original Pinoy/Pilipino Music). Would you believe that there was a time that I never listened to songs written and sang in Filipino unless they were in English? I was stupid and very close-minded back then. I always thought that it was cheap music but then I realized that maybe, that is one of the reason local music can’t break records outside the country, because of people with minds like me. I learned to grow up and started opening my mind not only to local music but about everything that surrounds me. 

Why do I like this K-pop group than the others? Well, I liked how versatile their music is, they only have four members that I can easily remember and they don’t look alike, their dance steps are good and the rest are to be filled up.

Other K-pop groups that I like, names that are inside the parenthesis are my biases: Girls’ Generation/SNSD (HyoHyeon), 2NE1 (CL), Big Bang (Taeyang) and C.N. Blue (Yong Hwa).

Min is my favorite Miss A member and to top it all, she’s best friend with HyoHyeon from SNSD.

Oh, and I found out that Daniel Radcliffe likes Tiffany from SNSD. :)
