kpop rantings

[this post is like three weeks overdue but i meant to say this earlier]

everyone's very happy for the wondergirls for their appearance on sytycd and i suppose i should be too, but i honestly don't appreciate this whole westernization of kpop, it makes me really sad... i feel like they're losing their original flair just by translating their songs/changing their style to appeal to an american market. it's a completely different style and you have to use a different appeal, and it's just not them anymore. wondergirls' "nobody" makes no sense in english. like honestly if this is what the lyrics meant in korean, it would not have been this big of a hit.

and then snsd was rumoured to have planned an american visit, which scares the heck out of me because snsd is like...the lifeblood girl group of south korea, and it'd be really sad to see them undergo the same transformation that wg did :[

i'm really cold... i think i'll go put on a jacket. and school starts in two days.

nobody knows

today in english, julie came up to my desk and rapped out, "TIME IS TICKIN', TI-TIME IS TICKIN' TICKIN'...!" and i stared at her kind of ... o.O until she was like "you know? EPIK HIGH!" and i was like OH haha just kidding i knew that, at least kind of T-T

i feel like i've already made the pilgrimage from the rest of the world to the world that is kpop, but i need to keep up! ..once apps are done, i will. only two more days until the finale of you're beautiful! three, technically, but i'm assuming it'll be up by wednesday night, thursday on asian time. waiting is pure torture, because i've been boycotting the soundtrack until the final episode comes out so i won't be depressed when i hear the music, and A.N.Jell is losing plays in my library... saddening, it is.

i really, really hope taekyung ends with minyu, or i will spend a week not doing apps and just crying in the corner of my room. i'm not even kidding, that honestly sounds like something i would end up doing if that's what ends up happening.

over and out to homework. but before, love, love, love...

밤 12시 술 취해 지친 목소리
새벽 2시 차갑게 꺼진 전화기
아무도 내 맘을 모르죠
I can't stop, love love love
아파도 계속 반복하죠
I can't stop, love love love

있나요 사랑해본 적
영화처럼 첫 눈에 반해본 적
전화기를 붙들고 밤새본 적
세상에 자랑해본 적
쏟아지는 비속에서
기다려본 적
그를 향해 미친듯이
달려본 적
몰래 지켜본적 미쳐본적
다 보면서도 못본 척

있겠죠 사랑해본 적
기념일 때문에 가난해본 적
잘하고도 미안해 말해본 적
연애편지로 날 새본 적
가족과의 약속을 미뤄본 적
아프지말라 신께 빌어본 적
친굴 피해본 적 잃어본 적
가는 뒷모습 지켜본 적
can't stop love
미친듯 사랑했는데 왜
정말 난 잘해줬는데 왜
모든걸 다 줬었는데
you got me going crazy
can't stop love
죽도록 사랑했는데 왜
내 몸과 맘을 다 줬는데
모든걸 잃어버렸는데 어떻게

아무도 내 맘을 모르죠
I can't stop, love love love
아파도 계속 반복하죠
I can't stop, love love love

있나요 이별해본 적
빗물에 화장을 지워내본 적
긴 생머리 잘라내본 적
끊은 담배를 쥐어본 적
혹시라도 마주칠까
자릴 피해본 적
보내지도 못할 편지 적어본 적
술에 만취되서 전화 걸어본 적
여보세요 입이 얼어본 적

있겠죠 이별해본 적
사랑했던 만큼 미워해본 적
읽지도 못한 편지 찢어본 적
잊지도 못할 전화번호 지워본 적
기념일을 혼자 챙겨본 적
사진들을 다 불태워본 적
이 세상에 모든 이별 노래가
당신의 얘길꺼라 생각해본 적

can't stop love
미친듯 사랑했는데 왜
정말 난 잘해줬는데 왜
모든걸 다 줬었는데
you got me going crazy
can't stop love
죽도록 사랑했는데 왜
내 몸과 맘을 다 줬는데
모든걸 잃어버렸는데 어떻게
아무도 내 맘을 모르죠

I can't stop, love love love
아파도 계속 반복하죠
I can't stop, love love love

바보처럼 울고 또 술에 취하고
친구를 붙잡고 그 사람을 욕하고
시간이 지나고 또 술에 취하고
전화기를 붙잡고 say love

아무도 내 맘을 모르죠
I can't stop, love love love
아파도 계속 반복하죠
I can't stop, love love love
아무도 내 맘을 모르죠
(사실은 당신만 모르죠)
아파도 계속 반복하죠
이러다 언젠가 다시 마주치겠죠
