Relatively a baby SONE here. 👶🏻 Since 2014 and “Mr. Mr.” was my first comeback as a fan. Still building my SNSD collection and I don’t have a cassette of their first album. I wouldn’t have a device to play it on anyways!
I don’t know too many of their songs but “I’m Your Girl” is a karaoke favourite. 😝
Not at all! It’s the beauty of the internet... it’s there forever. I also find Korean culture is very nostalgic. The 90s are cool again now so if we wait a few more years, 2000s K-Pop groups will be cool again. 😎
For many people, it takes many jobs and career changes to find the one that’s just right. Are there any courses or certifications you can take to put you on a better career path? Can you take some internships in different fields to figure out what you like best? My line of work is totally different from what I studied in school and this is the case for a LOT of others. Look at what soft skills you excel in and try to figure out a path that makes sense for you.
I caught up on all of the episodes last week. Obsession incomingggg. 😩😩😩
Personally, I find it fascinating! The level of interest in K-Pop and Korean culture still blows my mind. To me, it’s so freakin’ cool that Korean celebrities have a huge following from people all over the world who they can’t understand them. That’s a big reason why I’m passionate about translating and love that I can help bridge a language gap.
I understand the concern around festishization (dating in the “Western world” as an Asian woman is a verrrry ~interesting~ experience) but I would hope that K-Pop fans will take the time to learn more about Korea beyond music and be respectful of the Korean culture.
Yoona’s “When the Wind Blows” because it’s pretty representative of songs I typically enjoy. Acoustic, easy listening.
Must watch: INTIMATE NOTE, CHANNEL SNSD, Hello Baby, Strong Heart, Happy Together, WEEKLY IDOL, Knowing Brothers, Running Man... so many gems. 😭😭😭
😩😩😩 I still stand by my original pick. We can agree to disagree, Tiffany.
I fell in love with their personalities watching variety shows! I don’t have a bias, and I never have, because they’re all equally loveable - it just seems unfair to have a favourite. 😆😆😆
