[K-LOVE]: June 2009
This wonderful idea was spawned by Seoulbeats and emulated by my K-POP sista, G.
YESH.
So, let’s spread the K-Love.
01) Current favorite song/song on repeat:
Genie and Fire. Love those legs dance. Boy. I’m starting to sound pervy.
02) Girl crush?
Currently crushing on Taeyeon. Yesh. I’m loving her new look. Nice locks.
03) Boy crush?
NICKHUN.
Oh well, I might sound biased. But Seung Ri already has won a spot in my heart. Just that, Nichkhun is such a dork, I can’t help but be smitten too. I’m only human. And a Hottest VIP. Teehee.
04) Awaiting…
And excited about 2NE1′s album release! Plus UAAP’s Season 72. Oops. That’s not K-ish anymore.
05) Currently watching:
MNet Scandal. Hehe. Everything single episode.
06) Listening the hell out of…
Girls’ Generation’s newly released album. Love it.Fave track is Genie and Boyfriend.

Quarrel Buddy, Wanted.
I like lovin' this way.
There’s this thing about reality slapping it’s truth into your face.
It hurts and it can sting bigtime. It even rings in my ear.
Tonight, I had the most uncanny feeling after witnessing our tenant, Nong Don quarreling with his fiancee, in a cutesy way, over his PSP memory stick. And I can’t help but be envious of them.
Yes. Envious enough, that it had me wishing I had someone to fight random things too.
And I’d have to agree that nothings beats the making-up part.
Boohoo. I’m starting to sound like a desperate spinster.
Maybe it’s just sleep, kicking in to my system.

Hope for Me?
Got this from another blog online.
When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said “I’ve got something to tell you.”
She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.
Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking.
“I want a divorce.”
I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly,
“Why?”
I avoided her question. This made her angry. She shouted at me “You are not a man!”
That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer. I had lost my heart to Dew(my other woman). I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her!
With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces.
The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger.
I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.
The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table.
I didn’t have supper but fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew.
When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.
In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce.
She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible.
Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month’s time and she didn’t want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.
This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.
She requested that everyday for the month’s duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning.
I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.
I told Dew about my wife’s divorce conditions. She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. “No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce.” she said scornfully.
My wife and I hadn’t had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us “Daddy is holding Mummy in his arms.”
His words brought me a sense of pain.
From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms.
She closed her eyes and said softly “Don’t tell our son about the divorce.” I nodded, feeling somewhat upset.
I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.
On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn’t looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.
On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.
On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again.
I didn’t tell Dew about this.
It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.
She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, “All my dresses have grown bigger.”
I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.
Suddenly it hit me…
She had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.
Our son came in at the moment and said, “Dad, it’s time to carry Mum out.”
To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute.
I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day. But her much lighter weight made me sad.
On the last day, when Iheld her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, “I hadn’t noticed that our life lacked intimacy.”
I drove to Dew’s jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind. I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her “Sorry, Dew, I do not want the divorce anymore.”
She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. “Do you have a fever?” She said. I moved her hand off my head.
“Sorry, Dew.” I said “I won’t divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn’t value the details of our lives, not because we didn’t love each other any more. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.”
Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.
At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, “I’ll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.”
I’ve come to realize one thing after I dried my tears from reading this post.
The small details of our lives are what really matters in a relationship. ^_^
I hope there is still hope for me to look for that one great love too.

Nichkhun’s Interview: What Kind of Food Reminds You of Each Member?
Jaebeom – Hamburger
Jaebeom hyung won’t eat anything but hamburgers. He doesn’t eat rice and keeps saying
“let’s eat hamburgers!” only.
Taecyeon – Chinese Restaurant (T/N: I think it means to say Chinese food)
Taecyeon is greasy..his voice, his expression are all like that.
Chansung – Cream Spaghetti /Spaghetti with Cream Sauce
Chansung is greasier than Taecyeon and he looks like Italian guy. Especially last time when he danced Tango with his hair tied up..really resembles Italian.
Wooyoung – Udon noodles
Hmm…when Wooyoung gets up in the morning, his face is swollen just like Udon noodles. However he becomes cuter when it’s swollen.
NichKhun – Jellybeans
Because it has many different flavors and colors
Junsu – Junho
Hmm…there’s no food that suits Junsu and Junho.
Thanks minsarang.

Gee was not over.
Gee was crowned the best song for the first half of 2009.
Woah. Looks like this year will be the battleground for girl groups.
Girls’ Generation was able to beat out SS501’s Because I’m Stupid and Super Junior’s Sorry Sorry to grab the award.
Not only that. The group was also able to enthroned with the highest hit song, after winning not 9, but now 10 for their hit ‘Gee’ on KBS Music Bank. Now the record is set at 10 wins at No.1.
‘Gee’ has been number 1 between January 16th – March 13th 2009 which occupies the No.1 position for 9 weeks. Their speech after winning the award was ‘Thank you everyone for supporting us,’ which spread the joy and impressed the audience.
Today, SNSD is promoting ‘Tell Me Your Wish (Genie)’ and they wish that the audiences will get to see a new side of the girl group.
The song will be promoted for 3 months on KBS Music Bank, MBC Music Core and SBS Inkigayo.

[CF] Big Bang for HITE
This is the matured version of their CF.
Loved the “getting wet” part.
Oh. And TOP sporting that hot do.
Wish my Seung Ri was in it too.
But since he is still underage in Korea, so he can’t drink beer.
Therefore he can’t shoot the CF.
Teehee.
Thanks to Vicky.

I Love Music Bank. ;)
Too say that MuBank went all the way with its show yesterday would be an understatement.
With all the idols gathered, what more can we, fans, ask for?
Although, I wish Big Bang was also around. It would have been too perfect.
Loved 2NE1‘s perf.
Plus, nice of them to pay homage to the King of Pop, MJ.
I also liked Girls’ Generation‘s Genie.
The brown pilot outfits are pretty but I’m missing the marine look too.
Plus, I can’t get over the leg thing. Love it.
Haha. This one made my day a whole lot better. I’ve been down with the flu.
Remember SBS‘s creation, Wonder Boys? Well, Music Bank seemed of emulated it and made one of their own.
Check out Boys’ Generation. Featuring Super Junior’s Eun-hyuk, Sung-min, Shin-dong, Ye-sung; 2PM’s Jae-bum, Tae-kyeon, and Nickhun; Shinee’s Key; and of course, 2AM’s Jo-kwon.
Dang. Jo-kwon can really make me believe he’s female-ish.
I can say it has really been a “Gee” fever for 2009.
Also, liked the Rookie Dance Battle.
It’s Chunglim vs AJ vs Taegoon.
Hotness.
Makes me wish they form a group, or something. 
And who can let this one miss?
I wished SHINee payed some tribute to MJ too.
They’ve got MJ-ish in their moves and style, eh.
Plus, check out, Onew slipping. Again.
Super Junior‘s Goodbye Stage.
Poor Sungmin.
Last but not the least, the Idol Parade.
KARA performed Fin.K.l’s “To My Boyfriend,” which is befitting because KARA did debut as Fin.K.l 2 and they are currently the girl group closest to that old school girly pop flavor.
SHINee performed H.O.T’s “We Are The Future.”
SNSD’s Jessica, Seo-hyun, and Tiffany get all sweet with S.E.S’s “Oh My Love.”
2PM offer some smooth player flavor with their homage to G.O.D’s “Friday Night.”
Love it.

[AUDIO] Wonder Girls’ Nobody English Version (Official)
Wonder Girls released their “Nobody” English version today.
I must say, it’s not that good.
Yep. That was me, being real.
Sure, I like it, but the Korean version will always be better.
I guess there’s such a thing with Korean songs being made into English songs end up being cheesy. (This is my personal opinion.) No pun intended.
I just hope this one catches the drift of them Americans.
Good luck, Wonder Girls.
Saranghae. ♥
You Know I still Love You Baby.
And it will never change. (Saranghae)

It’s a rainy night again. Some emo, anyone?
It’s dark and cold
I can’t see the light from here
I’m so alone and scared
Can anyone hear me?
I want to cry
For the lost jewels
For the wasted years
But I can’t
I want to cry
For the unrecognized efforts
For the unappreciated sacrifices
But I can’t
I want to cry
For the words never spoken
For the thoughts never expressed
But I can’t
I want to cry
For the stars I can’t reach
For the candles blown by the wind
For you who left me here
But I can’t
Hope you liked it.
