[BLOG] T Shirt Business?

Perhaps not a business, but it's definitely an idea for now.
I'm sure someone has thought of this before but I am currently on the works of designing SNSD -like inspired jumpers.
Except with a more general twist to it.
Here's an example :) [click for a larger image]


So this idea stemmed to life after i wanted to unite DBSK, SUJU, and SNSD in midst of all the fanatic wars going on in the world right now. Another way to make myself outcasted, while looking hot >:D

TOHOSHINKI - Love In The Ice [Translation]
Those freezing hands aren't your fault
They carry scars from long before
Afraid to love someone,
You turn your back on the other side of the words...

Like ice, the embraced heart slowly starts to thaw

For anyone to be loved by someone,
Makes life in this world shine
If it was me, I’d make your heart warm once more
With eternal tenderness

Even if fate’s games hurt the heart...
On the other side of the tears,
A single ray of light will swoop down into the darkness
We know that this is so

As strong as the suffering, we can feel people’s warmth

Everyone is searching for a place
That can take away the sorrow and loneliness
So… for you, that place is here
Don’t be afraid, don’t hesitate anymore, because I’ll protect you

To the point of being painful (my heart)
This love is beautiful (don’t be afraid)
Even if just momentarily (let you know my love)
This time is beautiful (you know… let you know my love)

For anyone to be loved by someone,
Makes life in this world shine
If it was me, I’d make your heart warm once more
With eternal tenderness

[KPOP] Hug International Lyrics

for personal reasons :)

Lyrics

Hero) Once I say I love you I think you
would be gone, oh baby~
cuz we are too young to love so I can say
little long~ hold you in my arms

Micky) but I will be waiting for you
to say you want me to be with you
I'll live in your love and
your dream forever and ever

Hero) whenever you look in my eyes
there are so many smiles and tears
I was born to love feel so deep inside.
if you need me I'll be your man
(I'll be your man)

Xiah) whenever you look in my eyes,
I do want to show you my love
I make up my mind make your dreams come true. nobody can stop me to say I love you.

Max) How can I ask who you're still looking for
I'm the one since love seems to make me blind
I try to find All day long
but I cannot hold

U-Know) we talk on the phone every night
and so came closer day by day
I touch you and kiss you and hold you
to feel but in dream

Micky) whenever you look in my eyes

Xiah) there are so many smiles and tears

Micky) I was born to love feel so deep inside

Xiah) If you need me I'll be your man
(I'll be your man)

Max) whenever you look in my eyes
I do want to show you my love

All) I make up my mind make your
dreams come true

Max) nobody can stop me to say

Xiah) I love you~

All) in my arms, in my soul
I want to hold you baby

you don't know how much I love you
do you baby

Hero) Like a sun rising up,
I can't stop loving you.
can't hold back anymore~

Max) whenever you look in my eyes
there are so many smiles and tears

Xiah) I was born to love feel so deep inside
If you need me,
I'll be your man (I'll be your man)

Hero) whenever you look in my eyes (in my eyes)
I do want to show you my love

All) I make up my mind make your dreams come true

Hero) nobody can stop me to say, I love you.

[KPOP] More SHINee Goodness

Fancams suck due to stimulating motion sickness, but watching Cloverfield did the same effect.

And this is the performance where Taemin missed the mic pass... aww!

MORE ON SUPER JUNIOR - H
Super Junior-H's music style involves the common style of contemporary dance music and bubblegum pop, mainly targeting the music industry with their fun and entertaining style. Super Junior-H's debut single, "Cooking? Cooking!" is a dance track with refreshing rhythm and quirky lyrics. Their goal is to give fans feelings of bliss and happiness with their music.

By 2008, most of the Super Junior members have already been part of in at least one subgroup, except for Kibum who has been occupied with his acting schedules. Super Junior-H consists of every previous member of Super Junior-T, with Yesung being the replacement of Heechul. Super Junior-H made an unofficial debut performance on May 3, 2008 at the Power Concert although they did not formally introduced themselves as the subgroup at the time.

On May 30, 2008, SM Entertainment released the official announcement of the subgroup through Newsen. The subgroup's first mini album with the title track, "Cooking? Cooking!" is slated for a tentative release date of June 5, 2008.

So their debut performance is said to be @ the Dream Concert!!! (I'm guessing the poster lied in saying that all of suju was to be attending/performing?) And that the focus of this sub-group is to penetrate the Japanese fanbase.
Oh gosh, so Suju-H will be a bubblegum J-pop group?
I was hoping more of the Trot variety! WELL as long as they have Eunhyuk <3

[KPOP] ANOTHER SUPER SUB GROUP ???

Super Junior's new subgroup revealed, "Super Junior - Happy"

13-member boy band Super Junior produces another subgroup, "Super Junior - Happy".

Super Junior - Happy is the fourth Super Junior subgroup after Super Junior-K.R.Y, Super Junior-T, and Super Junior-M, formed by SM Entertainment. The six members include Leeteuk, Yesung, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin, and Eunhyuk.

On the 30th, SM announced that, like the name of the group, they will be peforming quick and refreshing songs, giving the fans a feeling of bliss and happiness.

Super Junior - Happy's first mini album will be available in early June.
The title track is a dance song entitled "요리왕(COOKING? COOKING!)" (Translation: Cook King(COOKING? COOKING!) ).

The song is a story about a youth stumbling upon interesting things as he thinks about cooking for his girlfriend.

[KPOP] Nice and New "SHINEE" Group from SM Entertainment!

I present to you SHINEE!
The MV for their debut single "Replay" was just released today. You can watch it below!

ONew | Joonghyun | Taemin | Minho | Key
I guess SM has to come out with a new group pertaining to a younger generation of rabid fangirls. So take one good look at all of the members, would you say they are ages 14-19? Probably not, but they are. (and i feel highly wrong for fancying the second youngest member, but you can't blame me, i'm a sucker for the rappers)

From the looks of it, SHINEE may also be intended as a marketing ploy for the Chinese audience (and maybe English) later on in the future considering most members can speak both languages. Either way, I like their sound and they're so enjoyable to look at! ^__________^
Now I have to learn to associate their names to their faces.

Miss Super Hottie Video Girl from the U (Mandarin) video is also the video girl here!

[BLOG] Korean Name Generator

this is due to the fact that i thought too hard and long about what my korean name would be.
so i found this generator http://rumandmonkey.com/widgets/toys/namegen/10981/

and after trying a variety of names, only to learn that you must enter LAST NAME FIRST, then FIRST NAME... my korean name is.....



Lee Min-Ri

i must admit... it actually suits me pretty well ^_____^
it was funny though, i think through one of my many name combinations, I ended up with the result Lee, Sung-Min and Kim, Tae-Yeon hahaha! The best though was Park, Jae-min (talk about dbsk mixup)

[VIDEO] I've never watched American Idol until now...

My entire family has been teasing me about this certain 'David Archuleta' person mentioning "Oi, your boyfriend is singing" although I never take part with their american idolling...
but after watching a video clip of this certain boy...
FINE I will admit, he is certainly my type, in fact he exemplifies my type.
I just hope he's not gay (the stage actions worry me), 'cause my Gaydar tends to turn off around guys like these.

And of course, Ms. Wakeshima's weapon of choice.

English Translation:
Hi Miss Alice
With your glass eyes
What kind of dream
Can you see?
Are you fascinated with?

Stilll
My heart tears
And drifts
Stuck in the patched crevices
Are memories

Hi Miss Alice
With that fruitful lips
To whom does love
Is cast away?
Is lamented?

Already
I spin my words
Feverish tongue
Has turned cold
The song to love
Can't be sung either

Still you do not answer.

[BLOG] OPERATION: Clean Up Room

PROGRESS REPORT #1
So this summer I promised myself that I would clean my room. Believe me, it's actually a pretty bad case. Here are a few reasons why I've finally decided on accomplishing such a task...

1. I haven't slept on my own bed for almost a year
2. I'm missing a couple of my favourite pieces of clothing
3. I think there are hobbits living under my bed
4. I haven't seen the surface of my bed for almost a year
5. I'm pretty sure I still have some unopened presents from my Debut. (18th birthday)
6. I'm painting my room
7. I have money for an Ikea shopping spree
8. I think there are hobbits living under my bed
   

Thus bringing me to CUR Progress Report #1.
I've managed to clean my bookshelf, the unused floor, and sort of the closet. Here are some images so far!
Expect more of these in the future.
Hopefully by the end of this, I will have red walls, halogen lighting, paper lamps, all my photography works up for display, and finally MY BED once again!


The Room...

[KPOP] Super Junior on Oprah!?!

..fine not really. Charice Pempengco was featured on the 05/12/08 episode of Oprah, where the show was broadcasting "Most Talented Kids". I missed the actual episode since I was living like a hermit in my room that has yet to be fully cleaned, but I did manage to catch a glimpse of her appearance through this YouTube clip which can be found below.
While watching it I completely pitched a spaz! I'm really proud of this little Filipina girl making the motherland proud for sure, but Oprah Winfrey video people using clips from SBS STARKING? NO WAI. RLY?
And guess who I saw? SUPER JUNIOR haha. I really have no life...
