Haven't much heart to read lately. So i've been enjoying my new music.
The other day, i watched one of the episodes of X-man (Korean game show) and one of his fellow Shinhwa members made a comment that goes something like this: 'You're handsome, dance well and is quite cool. But why do you sound like that?' - poking fun at KDW's singing voice.
So i had quite mixed feelings about buying this album. That's why i got the repackage one. (first is horribly expensive, then so silly cos not a real album album. but what to do? should have bought the first printing one.)
Anyway, i watched his MTV (Handkerchief) on YouTube. And thought, quite likeable song. And since Jay wanted to buy the new Shin Hye-sung, ok la.

So my verdict. He has a sweet voice. Not very powerful, but not irritating either. His album is surprisingly, not pure R&B (like M, which i actually dislked at the beginning) but a nice mixture of a little pop, hip-hop, R&B and rock. One of those that you'll enjoy on anyday, plus will grow on you. Loved track 8, which has rap by Eric Mun. Also there's a duet, which is quite good. (makes me want to learn Korean, so that i can read the titles and transliterate the lyrics) Korean pop can be quite boring or monotonous or sound too alike. This is more varied, so i like.
kimdongwan is ... ? a good companion & friend. Worth a listen for daring to be more friendly and less artsy. (but too commercial, is it? very him)
(You oddballs at home should know i don't like to copy and burn music, but since Sky might wanna have a listen. I've a sampler of five tracks, just let me know and i'll send you the link.)
