Underground rap.

Ever heard of Underground rap before? It doesn't suprise me if you haven't. Because it is not that famous, especially outside of Korea. 

I've been into rap and old skool lately and the famous underground producer for rap and old skool would be Primary? Wouldn't it? His beats and collaborations are awesomeeeee! But not only primary who makes awesome beats but there are a few rappers and groups out there who are bringing the lyrics even better. For example: Dok2, Double K, Beenzino, Verbal Jint, Zion.T, Supreme Team, Dynamic Duo and i can keep going on and on. Those guys are awesome. I think they're like really underrated, those guys all have amazing talents but they aren't noticed that much, Or is it just me? Because i don't live in Korea (Sadly) and i don't know if a lot of people would know them but i do know that they aren't famous at all in The Netherlands here. 

Because a few weeks ago i went to the Seasonal kpop meeting in The Netherlands. It's always nice to meet new people but you can expect to hear questions from them, like: 'What's your favorite group? Who's your bias'. And then there's me, 'I'm not really into the groups lately.' Them: 'Well okay, Who are you into then?'  'Primary?.. Beenzino?.. Zion.T?'  And at the first two names i can see their face thinking about who that is, untill i mentioned Zion.T, a few where like: 'Err.. yeah i've heard of him before, but never really listened to him'.  Then there is me again, being sad because underground rap should be more famous! So they can do a world tour or even better a europe tour! (Within The Netherlands). So yep.

That was my opinion about Underground rap, if you haven't heard it before and you like rap and old skool. You should definetly check it out, I recommend you to listen to it, and fall in love with it !  (✌◠▽◠) ♥(ˆ⌣ˆԅ)

Guess who's back.

Soooooooooo, It's been a long time since i've posted something on my blog. And i'm sorry for that!
But! I decided to change my blog a bit. I wanted to keep it more personal instead of like making reviews and stuff. So this blog will all be about my liking and things i've noticed in my life but still all about kpop! So yep. I hope you Look forward to my next update. ヽ(^o^)ノ

힘내.. !

시간 지나 먼지 덮인 많은 기억
시간 지나면서 내 몸에 쌓인 독
자유롭고 싶은 게 전보다 훨씬 더 심해진 요즘 난 정확히 반쯤 죽어있어
눈에 보이는 건 아니지만 난 믿은 것
그게 날 이끌던 걸 느낀 적 있지 분명
그 시작을 기억해 나를 썩히던 모든 걸 비워내
붙잡아야지 잃어가던 것

지금까지의 긴 여행
꽉 쥔 주먹에 신념이 가진 것의 전부라 말한 시절엔
겁먹고 낡아 버린 모두를 비웃었지
반대로 그들은 날 겁 줬지
나 역시 나중엔 그들같이 변할 거라고 어쩔 수 없이
그러니 똑바로 쳐다보라던 현실
그는 뛰고 싶어도 앉은 자리가 더 편하대
매번 그렇게 나와 너한테 거짓말을 해

그 담배 같은 위안 땜에 좀먹은 정신
어른이 돼야 된다는 말 뒤에 숨겨진 건 최면일 뿐 절대 현명해 지고 있는 게 아냐
안주하는 것뿐 줄에 묶여있는 개마냥
배워가던 게 그런 것들뿐이라서
용기 내는 것만큼 두려운 게 남들 눈이라서
그 꼴들이 지겨워서 그냥 꺼지라 했지
내 믿음이 이끄는 곳 그 곳이 바로 내 집이며 내가 완성되는 곳
기회란 것도 온다면 옆으로 치워놓은 꿈 때문에 텅 빈 껍데기뿐인 너 보단 나에게
마음껏 비웃어도 돼
날 걱정하는 듯 말하며 니 실패를 숨겨도 돼
다치기 싫은 마음뿐인 넌 가만히만 있어
그리고 그걸 상식이라 말하지
비겁함이 약이 되는 세상이지만
난 너 대신 흉터를 가진 모두에게 존경을 이겨낸 이에게 축복을

깊은 구멍에 빠진 적 있지
가족과 친구에겐 문제없이 사는 척
뒤섞이던 자기 혐오와 오만
거울에서 조차 날 쳐다보는 눈이 싫었어
열정의 고갈
어떤 누구보다 내가 싫어하던 그 짓들
그게 내 일이 된 후엔 죽어가는 느낌뿐
다른 건 제대로 느끼지 못해
뒤틀려버린 내 모습 봤지만 난 나를 죽이지 못해
그저 어딘가 먼 데로 가진 걸 다 갖다 버린대도
아깝지 않을 것 같던 그 때는
위로가 될만한 일들을 미친놈같이 뒤지고 지치며
평화는 나와 관계없는 일이었고
불안함 감추기 위해 목소리 높이며 자존심에 대한 얘기를 화내며 지껄이고 헤매었네 어지럽게
누가 내 옆에 있는지도 모르던 때
그 때도 난 신을 믿지 않았지만 망가진 날 믿을 수도 없어 한참을 갈피 못 잡았지
내 의식에 스며든 질기고 지독한 감기
몇 시간을 자던지 개운치 못한 아침
조바심과 압박감이 찌그러트려놓은 젊음
거품, 덫들, 기회 대신 오는 유혹들
그 모든 것의 정면에서 다시 처음부터
붙잡아야지 잃어가던 것

급히 따라가다 보면 어떤 게 나인지 잊어가 점점
멈춰야겠으면 지금 멈춰
우린 중요한 것들을 너무 많이 놓쳐..

Gwiyomi?

There has this viral video going around through youtube called:
Gwiyomi!

It's like singing this cute song and do the counting with your fingers while acting all cute, doing the aegyo. 

1 + 1 = 귀요미, 2 + 2 = 귀요미
3 + 3 = 귀요미, 4 + 4 = 귀요미
5 + 5 = 귀요미, 6 + 6 = chup.. chup…chup…chup.. chup…chup… 귀요미

I've seen a few and some where like really funny or really cute! Also the idols are doing this song as well, which is sometimes awkward lol. 

(Just imagine Bang yong guk doing the gwiyomi o_O(Although i wish for Zion.T & Primary to do the gwiyomi song ^_^))

An example of an awkward gwiyomi player;

A funny one;

And a cute one (The original); 

Kpop idols in Europe.

There has been a few, Kpop idols in Europe. 

I've been to one concert. That was in Paris; SM tour in Paris. With F(x), SHINee, DBSK, Super Junior. Omgg That was like the best day in my life. 

There has been a lot of kpop groups that came to Europe and i bet there  will come more and more. Which i don't mind but i always find it a waste that they're always going to Paris or Germany, Like.. uhh There is still Holland. You guys have a lot of fans over here. (⌣́_⌣̀)

And how about you guyss, How is it at your continent? 

SHINee's Jonghyun in an accident.

So it has been reported that SHINee's Jonghyun has been involved in a car accident.  

''On April 1st, SM Entertainment revealed “Jonghyun ran into the guard rails on Dongho Bridge earlier today while driving his own car to return to the dormitory after visiting his home.”

SHINee’s fans don’t have to be too upset because they also shared, “Jonghyun didn’t suffer major injuries, but he got hurt around his nose so he’s currently receiving treatment in the emergency room at a hospital in Gangnam. After undergoing tests at the hospital, he will decide what to do with his future schedule.” '' 

Even thought they said not to be upset about it, I can't do anything but to be sad and upset though. After all he is one of my biases, even if it would be someone i don't know that good, i would still feel sad for that person. How i hope the treantment will be alright. 

Hwaitingg Kim Jong hyun ! ლ(o◡oლ)

Korean in your country?

So as the title says 'Korean in your country' How is Korean in your country, is it famous or not at all? 


Well here in The Netherlands, i can't really say it's like.. famous? It's more known with the teenagers though. I think from 10 - 30 years old. But it is becoming more and more famous especially because of PSY who became a worldstar. 

There are not a lot of like, korean shops or even korean people in The Netherlands as far as i know. There will be a few in the capital Amsterdam but it's not like it's full with Korean people. (sadly). 

We do have Korean restaurants here in the slightly more bigger cities (where i sadly don't live). Probably i think 2/3 restaurants a city. We also have a few schools in the big cities where you can actually learn more about Korea and about the culture, History, Music etc. So it's not like it's not known here. 

The ulzzang fashion is in my opinion a lot more known here especially also Jpop and Jrock. There are a lot of events out there which has to do with it. Like doing cosplay and stuff, and where you can actually buy Japanese things and Korean things! ヽ(^o^)ノ .  

There were always Dutch korean meetings where teenagers and adults meet with each other and do random things, meet new people actually sharing and talking about the thing you like the most: Kpop. Soon there will be a new meeting with at least more than 250 people. That's pretty huge for a small country like The Netherlands. 

How i in the end hope they would do something a little bit more with the Korean culture because there are a lot of people out there who actually like it but it's too far away for them, to just go to the city where those stores and schools are for one day.
