noorie is K-popped. And Korea is still gay.
Just shared some K-pop with my bb krabbypatty, so posting the tracks/MVs here as well. Before I do that though, I feel like I should show you the *real* reasons I'm into K-pop. And they've got nothing to do with music, as these examples will illustrate:
So, anyhow 5 mp3s + English-subbed MVs, all mainstream K-pop: manufactured, generic, sometimes retarded, but usually comes with great production values and is catchy/colorful/bouncy/fun/danceable... pop!
Big Bang & 2NE1 - Lollipop // www.sendspace.com/file/a7cy88
Random fact(s): Created as part of an ad campaign for a new range of cellphones. IDK, this vid just makes me happy. And you can always ignore the subs and pretend it's a gay pride song. You'll see what I mean.
2NE1 - Fire (Street Version) // www.sendspace.com/file/zf1x8p
Random fact(s): Minzy, their best dancer, is only 15. (Also, great workout song)
G-Dragon - Heartbreaker // www.sendspace.com/file/6dcp8l
Random fact(s): Some people refer to GD as the male, Korean Lady Gaga. After this song came out, he was accused of plagiarizing Flo-Rida. LOL.
2PM - Again & Again // www.sendspace.com/file/yeze01
Random fact(s): 2PM's leader Jay is currently in hiding in Seattle, having escaped Korea after an epic scandal. I actually own the Thai special edition of this + their previous single. Must be love.
SHINee - Replay // www.sendspace.com/file/fkvscx
Random fact(s): They're all above the age of 12, no matter what they look like. The Korean title of the song translate to "noona, you're so pretty" (noona = term used for older sister or older girl in general). There's an awesome lo-fi/indie English version of this song, written and sung by a girl called Lisa.
PS - It may or may not surprise you to learn that my new fave show is about a cross-dressing Korean not-quite-nun who joins a boyband.
