Annyeong! My "toy" from Yesasia arrived at approximately about a week from the date of online purchase. Shinhwa's State of the Art Seoul Tour 2006 DVD package was securely double-bubble wrapped and tucked into a tough plastic envelope. Therefore, I am very impressed with how efficient Yesasia is. The 2-DVDs are in perfect working condition. I've yet to finish the full concert but I'm just a tad disappointed with the sound quality for this concert. It pales in comparison to Hyesung's 1st Tour DVD. Oh well, the brighter side of it is that there's 5 more guys for my eyes to ogle at. Yippeeee ~~~~ (I'm also elated because SHCJ charges me at 50sgd excl- postage for the same DVD but I paid only 48sgd to Yesasia plus free shipping!)

Aahh...Two new songs from Kim Dong Wan's(KDW) latest jib like Bimil (Secret) and Honey really grows on me. Bimil sounds very electronica and has a very catchy tune. It also features SNSD's Tiffany's (Fany) voice. Talking about Fany, I detest her analogy of referring Hyesung's excellent vibrato to that of a goat's bleat. #%$%! She should have thought hard before opening her mouth to speak of her elders or sonbaes. I heard Hyesung was not the only one that fell prey to her unthoughtful remarks but different artistes/groups as well.

During the recent I Love Korea Dream Concert in Seoul, SNSD(All Girls Group)'s anti-fans(I estimate about 70% of the total attendance?) boycotted them by keeping silent throughout their performance on the Olympic Stadium's stage. A very akward moment for the girls on stage. It's a bit cruel punishment to SNSD as they are very young and immature but as the saying goes, one bad apple spoils the barrel. I hope SM Entertainment will better refine SNSD's PR skills. The videos are all over Youtube(YT). You can find them by typing the keywords(in bold above).

Anyways, back to KDW's; Honey is another up-tempo melody. Another collaboration with fellow Shinhwa member, Eric, whose rapping skills created a very fun and funky music altogether. I love these two songs only, at the moment. But I love KDW's first jib entirely!

My sister has been introducing me to TVXQ and I'm slowly allowing their music to permeate my auditory cortex which is currently swamped with Shinhwa/members stuffs. I still find it extremely hard to accept TVXQ's Purple Line's famous phrase : ... I really wanna touch myself... LOL! What the hell? I have taken a great liking to that song in particular but I cracked up whenever that phrase was mentioned. Shinhwa suffered the same fate too by having bad lyrics in some of their songs (the rap parts esp. Growl! at Eric because he created them.)

Andy and KDW's appearance on Music Bank is a pleasant surprise. They did a duet on each other's song. The chemistry between them has been great as always. Andy Lee is improving vocally and trying his level best not to sound pitchy, thus, the stiff presentation.
