I didn't know Shinhwa has released a new single until a friend of mine sent me a copy. The songs are good. Great, I mean. It's something you'd want to listen to over and over...

It's just now that I realized how much I've been missing Eric's rapping voice. Yo! Yo!

Go ahead. Listen.

Mwahahaha! [evil laugh]. I found the audio file to the original version of Hyesung's Tsunami. As miriya told me, it was sung by the Japanese pop rock band, Southern All Stars. Thanks again, miriya!

I was busily searching the net this morning, to be able to name my Top 100 Guys, when I accidentally discovered that one of my favorite Japanese actors, Takuya Kimura, of the Jdorama Pride, is actually a member of the Japanese idol group, SMAP, with which our Eric worked before to rap for their album, Pop Up! SMAP. Do you remember that news article where Eric was said to have worked with a popular group in Japan? That happened a long time ago and I never knew about Takuya Kimura's association with the said group until now. Of course, after knowing this, I searched for the audio file right away. Oh, what a day it has been!

If you've heard these songs already, please listen to them again. You may have forgotten already. And if you still haven't, all the more that you should hear them. He-he. I just liked these songs so much that I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy them, too. Oh, I hope you actually will.

I just heard this song and fell in love with it instantly. It's one of the tracks to Shinhwa's 2005 Japan Tour album and was a solo by Hyesung. Have you heard this before? The song is in Japanese, right? What's Tsunami? The title of the song or the original singer's name? [I think I've heard of a Japanese singer with the name Tsunami before but I'm not really sure.] And who sang this originally? This is not Hyesung's original, is it? He-he. I'm introducing to you this song when I don't even know anything about it. Well, maybe you can help me! [I've been asking you a lot of questions lately. You didn't notice, did you? He-he.]

A plastic surgeon has published a composite image of the ideal male Korean face. Rhee Seung-chul, the head of plastic surgery at Hanil General Hospital, made the image from the faces of 16 Korean Wave stars. Rhee had earlier done the same thing for women by making a composite image of 19 female stars.

The ideal Korean male consists of bits and pieces from Kang Dong-won, Kwon Sang-woo, Kim Rae-won, Mun Jeong-hyeok, Bae Yong-joon, Jung Ji-hoon, Song Il-gook, Won Bin, Lee Wan, Jang Dong-gun, Jae Hee, Cho In-sung, Jo Hyun-jae, Ji Seong, Ji Jin-hee, and Hyun Bin. All of them [are] popular not only in Korea but in China and Japan as well. He analyzed their faces with a computer program called BAPA, for “balanced angular and proportional analysis.” The result is a slim face with chiseled cheekbones and a clear chin, big eyes, a long nose and long, thin upper lip.

"According to the beauty theory that says the average of all the most preferred faces is the most beautiful, I made the new-generation handsome face by using the faces of stars that young Internet users like most,” Rhee said.

The Ideal Korean Male

I wonder which part of this face is Eric's. I can't seem to figure it out. He-he.

I'm not sure if I like the nose. I haven't decided yet.

What will you do if you spot this guy on the street?

It's our Dongwan Oppa's first album!!

I managed to get hold of three songs from the album, so here they are for your listening pleasure. I particularly liked the one with Andy in it. That's not to say though that I didn't like the other two. I strongly believe, based on these three songs, that Dongwan's first album is going to be a major hit. I bet you'll think so, too, once you get to hear these. On second thought, we have much faith in Dongwan that getting to hear the songs first isn't really necessary for us to believe he'll be successful. His hard work just says it all.

Alright, I'm off. I'll be back when things get less busier here. I just dropped by quickly to post this. Enjoy the songs!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By the way, does any of you here have the song with Eric in it? Oh, I'm dying to hear it.

Till next...

It's been a while since I'd last been here and how I missed you, guys! Lots of posts and new members, too! Wow, this is so great. I'll do some catching up soon and get acquainted with all of you. I'm so excited.

Well... to tell you honestly, despite my excitement now, I'm still worried about something. It's about our Dongwan Oppa. Is there anyone here who's a member of Shinhwa's official website as well? I just dropped by there recently and noticed that all of Dongwan's diary entries have been deleted. That's right. All!!! Everything!!! All of it!!! What's going on? I wonder what made him do that. Does anyone here know? Oh well, it's our Oppa's decision so we must all respect it, but still, I can't help but worry. One's decision to delete his or her online diary doesn't usually arise out extreme happiness, does it? He must be upset about something. But, of course, I wish I were wrong.

 

veggieg and Jinnie started it. Now, it's my turn to post my TMT (the magnificent trio, consisting of Junjin, Eric and Hyesung) collection. Will add more to it as I find new ones. We need your help, too; for we don't just do this for fun, it's an addiction; and there's no known cure to it yet. Not that we want to be treated. Ha-ha! That said, I hope you'd share with us whatever TMT photos you may already have. Thanks and enjoy the pictures.

To Jin4ever, who loves this picture so much: Not so bigger a version but still bigger. He-he.

Show us the one thing that unfailingly makes you smile, no matter what.

After Love, a duet by Shin Hyesung and Lyn. I had been searching for a copy since time immemorial. Now, that I finally have it, I'm sharing it with you. It's a very beautiful song. Listen to it. That's an order! Ha-ha! To download the song, look at the stars and pray earnestly. If that doesn't work, click here. Want to sing along but can't read Korean? Just drop me a line and I'll do the romanization for you. Enjoy listening to the song. Oh, I'm sure you will.

저만치 그녀가 떠나요
마치 바쁜 사람처럼
아쉬운 맘에 한걸음도
떼지 못한 나를 두고
인사까진 잘했는데
눈물은 감추지 못해
싫단 걸음을 억지로
재촉하는 날 그댄 모르죠
돌아보지 마요 계속 걸어요
울먹일 그대를 보면
다시 나 그대를 안고싶어
달려갈지 모르니
사랑하세요 누구든 다시
행복한 그대를 보면
이 맘 정리하기 더 쉬울테니
나를 도와줘요

손잡고 걸었던 이 길을
등을 진채 걷고 있죠
차는 눈물에 흐려지는
그대 모습 마지막이죠
돌아보지 마요 계속 걸어요
울먹일 그대를 보면
다시 나 그대를 안고 싶어
달려갈지 모르니
사랑하세요 누구든 다시
행복한 그대를 보면
이 맘 정리하기 더 쉬울테니
나를 도와줘요
어디로 가는지 걷고 또 걷죠
어쩌다 우리 이별까지 온 건지
난 모르겠어요 자신 없어요
그대 없는 듯 사는 일
쉴새 없이 드는 후회 속에
아파하며 살텐데
돌아봐줘요 한번만 다시
반가운 그 목소리에
용기 없는 내 발이 멈추도록
나를 불러줘요
아직 사랑해요
