Recently getting very much interested with K-pop. In fact, it's probably the fault of those 6 legendary hyper-active boys, Shinhwa. It is really without a doubt that I really love M and Kim Dong Wan's new albums.

And even though at the beginning, i found the sounds a little too overwhelming, i've now discovered the beauty behind the boom. It's cute and fun and sexy, perhaps cos i don't understand the lyrics so i don't feel quite put off by them. (the main reason why i steer clear of English songs especially R&B and hip hop is that the lyrics can be quite offensive).

Anyways, my current favourite M song is 'The 'M' Style', which i remember first hearing and wondering why M is singing 'Hamster" etc. Actually, it's M-style. But this song encompasses the entire feel of the album - deliciously fun yet deeply sexy, plus the pounding, infectious boom-booms. Eri liked it too, when i played it for her.

Apart from falling into the M blackhole, i've been doing a little bit of surfing and listening to KDW, in fact notice that my entire MP4 is filled with only Shinhwa, M & Kimdongwan with a smattering of tunes from Fly to the Sky.

Kim Dong Wan's first solo effort, it seems is meant to geared towards a more J-pop direction. That accounts for me finding it more palatable. (M's is very much Western, American hip-hop & R&B which to me holds less weight). Read next post, because i'm going to explain more ... najung-e
