5 Tear Inducing Moments Of IRENE Expressing Her Love For Fellow Red Velvet Members

We have all seen and heard how Red Velvet members love each other as some of them are expressive about it, our leader Irene is not an exception to that. Despite sporting a firm demeanor in her individual projects and other public events, once she's with her Red Velvet members and Reveluvs, her soft side always comes out. As a person that shows her love mostly by actions, there are still a few moments wherein Irene expressed her genuine feelings towards her members through words. Here, let us show you some of those tear inducing events:

1. During an interview for KBS Song Festival in 2017, Irene was asked by the interviewer on who is the most memorable person for her at that time, she answered with certainty:

"My members. Even without saying anything special, them just always being by my side gave me lots of strength."

Tale Of The Nine Tailed: Lee Yeon Chose Lee Rang Over His First Love

Holy cow! This episode got me on the edge of my seat almost the whole time! There are dull moments to count but the suspense on the later part really hyped me up! It got unexpected events served, and the thrill is coming back! Seriously, I am so impressed.  

I'm starting to get tired of fooling myself believing that there will be love chemistry between Lee Yeon and Ji-Ah from the previous episodes. I guess I've already seen enough of them, that's why it's been a drag for me to continue watching this drama. I thought the story would painfully continue to revolve around those two. [Well, technically it's about them] But heck, I've been slapped in the face with some other exciting happenings! 

SM Entertainment Unveils Teaser for Aespa's 3rd and 4th Member, Ningning & Giselle

The other night, Oct 28, SM reveals teaser photos of aespa's 3rd member Ninging and this night they revealed photos for the 4th member under the name of Giselle.

In my previous post, I've already revealed who is most likely going to be my bias in the group. Yes, I picked Karina and after seeing these new photos, I think that still hasn't changed. lol

I haven't searched much about them yet, since my interest towards them isn't that much high as of now, but if ever their songs come out this November then probably that would boost up and it may potentially change  my preference/bias. I think it's still too early to establish a bias at this point. I might eat my words in the future if I say more right now so I'll just post their pictures here for my future reference. 

Lee Dong Wook Killed Jo Bo Ah In Tale Of The Nine Tailed Episode 7

We already know this fact that Lee Yeon killed Ah-Eum from the past episodes and we're only waiting for Ji-Ah to find out about it, thanks to Lee Rang for that. The scene was really heartbreaking and it'll probably be the start of their strained relationship, that is if Ji-Ah's going to believe what she saw in the mirror without explanation from Lee Yeon. So are we going to see Lee Yeon trying to win back Ji-Ah's trust in the next episodes? Maybe yes and probably we'll get to see more of Lee Yeon's hardships in portraying Ji-Ah's saviour from both the past and present just to win her sympathy and trust. Geez, give us explanation first, we need more details!

The Target Comes Closer To Jang Dong Yoon and Krystal's Team In Search Episode 4

The mysterious creature is getting closer to civilization as it wanders out of the Demilitarized Zone. Clues were already thrown on previous episodes with animals missing, but it only got clearer when more evidences were found this episode.

Too bad that the special task force decided to search for the target at night, unaware that what they're looking for is already within their reach. 

On this episode, I honestly wonder why we're getting so much exposure about the villagers and then the ending comes and I've connected the dots. I wasn't suspicious or whatsoever and just thought that episode might just be one of those bad ones. But then as it progressed, I already have an idea that the creature would really appear in the village and their headquarters.

Finest Female Vocalist, Wendy of Red Velvet Will Sing New OST For Suzy's Drama Start-Up

Good news for all of us, the finest female vocalist Wendy will be part of the OST line-up 2 for TVN's hit drama Start-Up. It was revealed earlier that Wendy would have a solo OST for Suzy and Nam Joo Hyuk's drama. Release date is yet to be confirmed. 

SM Entertainment Unveils Teaser Photos for Aespa's 2nd Member, KARINA

I guess we are all mistaken with our assumptions that aespa is going to be a four member group. Just because WINTER is the first member doesn't automatically means that we'll be having members named after the four seasons. Lol But who knows, maybe we'll have four or more, it doesn't matter that much I guess. SM's Girls Generation is composed of 9 members while Red Velvet is composed of 5, nonetheless they are both successful despite the number difference. However, we can't deny how huge GG became though, they are like the epitome of a girl group, legends! Blackpink has 4 members and is undeniably the most famous kpop girl group as of the moment, their popularity is competing with the massive boy group BTS accross the world. What I'm trying to say is that, number of members doesn't really matter as long as they offer us something with high quality and uniqueness. 

Anyways, KARINA is the 2nd member of aespa! She's really gorgeous! This first picture is oozing with so much charisma comparable to blackpink. Must be the black hair and her posture. My aniticipation for the other member is building up because of her. 

This Is How I Study Japanese Vocabulary, With Tips That Are Very EFFECTIVE!

 

I want to show you how I study Japanese vocabulary. I've been studying Nihongo for almost 2 years now and so far, this is the best way I've found in learning new words. It's really effective to me since it helped me recall and use the words I've learned easily.

This is how I study new words. I learn them through context. I look for the definition of the word and write down sample sentences. At night, I will review my notes and create my own sentences.

I've already collected and written words from N5 to N3 level. To make my sentence mining easier, I categorized the words by their types on my notebook. Meaning, I've already determined if the words are い- adjective, な-adjective, noun or verb. This way, it would be easier to figure out how they are used in a sentence.

Krystal And Jang Dong Yoon's Past Romance Resurfaces In Search Episode 3

As I drag myself to watch the new episode of 'Search', I wasn't really expecting much from it because I've been disappointed from the first 2 episodes. But wow! I must have been too early judging it as plain and boring because this episode 3 made me realize I was wrong. 

Aespa Reveals Teaser photos for WINTER

Dazzling teaser photos were revealed on aespa's official pages under the name, WINTER.

Are we getting four seasons names for aespa's members? hmm.. 

Photos are aesthetically pleasing as expected from SM's production. The first member's beautiful visual surely captures everyone's eyes on social media. At first glance, she kind of reminds me of Taeyeon.  

I hope SM could release official information about her soon too for us to know more about her! 

SM Entertainment To Debut Their Newest Girl Group, Aespa

It was officially announced by SM Entertainment this morning that they will debut their newest girl group this November 2020, and they will be called aespa. 

Aespa is, as quoted from SM Town's account;

Name combining ‘æ’ derived from ‘Avatar X Experience’ & ‘aspect’

Various innovative activities to come with the theme of 'Experiencing a new world via the encounter of the ‘avatar’, your other self’

I honestly don't know what to feel about it especially since we've been getting silent treatment from SM regarding Irene's situation, and then suddenly this news about a new girl group came out. It's true that there has been speculations going round for a long time now that SM will debut a new girl group this year but I did not expect it to be in this kind of scenario we're in. Of course, who would have foresee such happenings?! Nobody! The timing is not aespa's fault, definitely not! It's just that for me as a fan of Red Velvet, I find it hard to believe that we're going to have a new gg and our RV is all left in the dark. But what can we expect? It's a good strategy by SM though, to immediately replace the negativity into excitement. It's a tactic obviously but I still wished they've handled Irene's case better. Oh well... 

Nam Joo Hyuk Got Caught By Bae Suzy & Kang Han Na in Start-Up Episode 4

I surely didn't expect Do San getting busted this early but somehow I'm relieved that it already happened. Maybe because as the episode 4 progresses showing how much Do San, Ji Pyeong and Dal Mi enjoy each other's company, I've already envisioned the hurtful consequences that it may cause in the end once the secret has been discovered, most especially to Dal Mi. So somehow, I'm grateful that it has been revealed. However, we're not sure up to what extent Do San disclosed. I'm having a feeling that not everything of it, so I'm still tensed about it. Gosh! I need episode 5 now! 

Nam Joo Hyuk & Kim Sun Ho Reveal Their Feelings For Bae Suzy in 'Start-Up' Episode 3

The latest episode of Start-Up is full of character developments and impactful twists. We are still on episode 3 and yet we're given so much to be excited for! The story progresses in a way that makes the viewers equalize their attention and curiosity over the four main leads. You can't just choose one or two persons to root for because they all have interesting stories to tell. 

In the first 2 episodes, we can't deny that we almost fall onto that second lead syndrome as we were all moved by the strong front and intellectual yet soft hearted character of Ji Pyeong. But now we're left in dilemma who to choose for Dal Mi as the drama introduces a likeable character of Nam Do San. Who wouldn't like him? He has huge potential in what he's doing with AI technology/ Nam San Tech, he doesn't give up on his dreams, and obviously has an attraction for Dal Mi. His naivety when it comes to girls make him bolder with his reactions. That simple affirmation that he likes Dal Mi in the ending part was so cute! He's so sweet! Nam Do San may be a geek and clueless to love, but if someone really shows appreciation to you and to what you believe in will surely make anyone's heart beat. The scene where he asked about the music box is so powerful that makes you think that it's the start of something real between them. We all know Dal Mi was referring to Do San when she said that the music box sounded wonderful. The flashbacks really gave me goosebumps, it's so on point!

5 Proofs That Irene Of Red Velvet Is A Warm Hearted Person

Let's all look back to Irene's good deeds amidst all these negative happenings recently. There are a lot of good things to talk about Irene as a person and hopefully it will help people to refresh their minds and think twice in posting malicious comments about her. 

Her mistake has been acknowledged and Irene already apologized for it. Let's not make one mistake overshadow all of the good things she has done in the entertainment industry, for the people of South Korea and to her loved ones (friends, family, and fans).

So here are some proofs why Red Velvet's Irene is a warm hearted person:

Lee Dong Wook And Jo Bo Ah's DAZED Magazine Feature

I almost flipped when I saw these pictures especially this first one that I'll share with you. I don't know why but it feels like their connection is much stronger in these photos than in the drama. lol Probably because this is intense! Ahh!

Tale Of The Nine Tailed: Lee Rang (Kim Bum) Reveals The Person That Means The Most To Him In Episode 6

I bet y'all squealed happily when the fortune teller revealed that Lee Yeon is still Lee Rang's most precious thing/person to him. Believe it or not, I kind of had the idea already when the fortune teller asked him that. Also, even though that Lee Rang was still figuring out who or what it could be, the fact that he called his half brother was already a giveaway. Haha! Gosh, I think rekindling their brotherhood is growing on me more than the romance between the leads. 

I Trust Irene And Will Continue To Support Her

I really want to stay silent about this controversy that Irene's currently in but people using this opportunity to bring her down just doesn't sit right with me. People are scary, they declare that they are her fans for a long time but will throw her away in an instant with just one mistake. A mistake that any person could make, it's just that this became a big deal because Irene's work is being a celebrity, a popular one. People immediately judged her without even knowing her side. Shouldn't they consider and understand first her side? But hey, Irene didn't bother to state anything to defend herself anymore probably because she already knew the cruel fact that people only listen to what they want to hear and only believe what they want to believe in. She just took this issue maturely and straight to the point by apologizing to that stylist personally and even through public apology on her instagram, without stating what actually happened or why she behaved that way because in the end she knew that she hurt someone's feelings and that there's no excuse to that. Irene accepts it and will learn from it. We know nothing and yet people chose to embody a perfect righteous human being and continue to criticize her for what a stylist, that she only worked with recently, posted on social media. Gosh. This is insane, right?!

Tale Of The Nine Tailed: As Lee Yeon & Ji-Ah's Love Story Progress, Lee Rang Continues To Gain Sympathy From The Viewers

Now that Lee Yeon discovered the reincarnation of her first love, we are able to see huge progress in their relationship. In this episode 5, we're served with some spice of a kissing scene from the couple! Lee Yeon's waiting for such a long time but his passion and desire for his love surely didn't diminish but intensifies more especially when he saw Ji-Ah in the clothing of Ah-Eum in this modern world. With this discovery, I think we got some official partnership in helping out lost souls in find their way to the other world too. I knew it, it's going to be revival of some Hotel Del Luna, Goblin and Korean Odyssey concept. I'm not complaining, alright?

Secret About Krystal's Birth Has Been Revealed In 'Search'

I don't think it's a good idea to watch this Kdrama late at night, and yet I did. It was definitely a wrong move! I had to cover my eyes to the scenes where the monster/ mysterous creature's appearing. Anyways I'm glad I survived it and still able to capture some important scenes. 

Yes, the title might confuse you if you didn't read it clearly. I'm only referring to Krystal's character in her Kdrama 'Search', of course. It seemed that in this episode, lots of details from the past were revealed and that includes important information about Son Ye-Rim's (Krystal) birth. This would really change everything about her future if someone else knew from the military, especially the bad guys with high ranks. They are all connected with their past and I kind of have a gut feeling that Dong-Jin (Jang Dong Yoon) has some connection to that as well. We should get more flashbacks! 

Wendy Of Red Velvet Covers BTS' Hit Song Dynamite, Irene & Seulgi's Monster & More!

Wendy finally got her own bubble in LYSN app and she immediately shared six short song covers to her fans. Today, October 21, Wendy sang Crush & Taeyeon's recent collaboration entitled Let Me Go, IU's OST song from Dream High called Someday, Red Velvet's recent released cover/OST Milky Way & Future, Red Velvet's sub-unit debut song Monster and lastly BTS' english hit song Dynamite. 

She surely is a person who loves to sing and shares that talent to her fans by attending to their requests on the app. Even though that they are just short covers, fans were really happy about Wendy's generosity and time she has spent with them. A few fans were left with even more desire for a WOLO aka Wendy solo. Hopefully that happens real soon, I have created a post about why Wendy should debut solo and if you haven't seen that then click here: WOLO/Wendy Solo

Is Yeo Jin Goo Part Of Suzy & Nam Joo Hyuk's Drama, Start-Up?!

I can't believe my eyes too when I scan through the casts of Start-Up and saw Yeo Jin Goo's name. My initial reaction was to click his name and check whether it was really him and it was him indeed with a picture! I already lost it! Haha! I mean, that's Yeo Jin Goo omygod! Since I didn't notice him on the first two episodes, I already have an expectation that he'll appear on the next ones. But then, since I really like searching about things, I checked further about it and found out that he already appeared in the first two episodes! 

He did appear with his voice only for an artificial intelligence named, Yeong Sil. Wow! After I've known this fact, I really listened to that part of the episode where he appeared and kyaaa it was really him! 

Nam Da-Reum (Young Han Ji-Pyeong) Charmed Viewers on the First 2 Episodes of Start-Up!

If you guys have watched the first 2 episodes of Start-Up then I'm not gonna blame you if you've fallen for Nam Da-Reum, aka the actor who portrays the young Han Ji-Pyeong. I was really captivated by his visuals and acting, he's pretty good! It's my first time to encounter him and I ended up mesmerized in the end. 

I've searched about him and discovered that he's only 18 years old and yet he has so many projects already! Whoah, we have a child star here. With that portfolio, he kind of reminds me of Yeo Jin Goo. 

My! Oh my! I love his character in Start-Up and it's sad that we won't be able to see him more often in the upcoming episodes, maybe in just a few flashbacks? That will be enough for me. Even though I'll miss him, I'm already satisfied how the episodes of Start-Up are progressing so far that's why I'm not gonna complain any longer. I'm just gonna watch out for his upcoming projects in the future too.

Tale Of The Nine Tailed Casts Kim Bum & Kim Yong-Ji Showcases Top Tier Looks For Harper's Bazaar

Have you guys seen Kim Bum and Kim Yong-Ji in their Harper's Bazaar magazine feature? It's my first time seeing it today while I was researching about them and so I'm gonna share it with everyone too. Sharing is caring, anyways.

I can't help but be left in awe because they looked so good together! Just look at them, their appearance is just top tier. They both have sharp eyes that make you want to shiver but with just one smile you'll end up falling anyway. This is crazy! 

Kim Bum, you fine man, I am so glad you are back into acting. It's been a while. Don't you think that his Lee Rang character in the Tale of The Nine Tailed fits him so much? Gosh, I love him so much. I just hope Lee Yeon (Lee Dong Wook's character) could keep up with his coolness. 

Start-Up Episode 2: Seo Dal-Mi (Bae Suzy) Finally Meets Nam Do-San (Nam Joo Hyuk)

Have you guys seen episode 2?! Gosh! My heart just hurts for Nam Do-San and Seo Dal-Mi! They depicted the real hardships of passionate dreamers. I really am so into watching everyone start from this kind of path, be it real life or just a drama. Just proving that not everyone is lucky or fortunate in life. Life is unfair, the well off/ lucky ones will somehow get the upper hand while the not so well off ones would have to work 10 times harder. We just have to accept it, but of course it doesn't mean that if you're well off that you'll be able to get the success you have define for yourself, and it's the same way with the other side. It all really just comes down with how passionate, focused, equipped with talents/skills, and hardworking a person really is when it comes to how far one can go in chasing their dreams.

Krystal And Jang Dong Yoon's Drama 'Search' - First Episode

I've also watched today Krystal and Jang Dong Yoon's k-drama called Search, and after watching the first episode there are still a lot of questions unanswered inside my mind. The mystery is killing me, and that's what this drama is all set for. They are to solve the mystery behind the soldier's disappearance. At first I thought that will be just a battle between North and South Korean soldiers since I haven't really read fully the synopsis about it first but then we have supernatural creatures involved in the mystery as well. 

It turned out that Krystal's character is already acquainted with Jang Dong Yoon's character from the very beginning. I wonder what's their past because despite acting aloof to each other in their sudden reunion for a mission, they seemed to really care for each other. Perhaps they've worked together beforehand. 

Start-Up Episode 1 Made Everyone Cry! (Bae Suzy & Nam Joo Hyuk Kdrama)

This is such a nice slice of life drama, really relatable in a lot of ways. Money could serve one person everything he/she wanted in life, reason why every human being does everything to obtain it even if costs them their own life. It’s a scary thing especially if you let it control you instead of you controlling it.

I believe that this k-drama would showcase us the possibilities of how to control our life choices and how we should have other motives in life as we try to achieve success and money. Be it wanting to achieve something that you have been dreaming of for a long time, making yourself or others proud, and a lot more. Success can be defined differently by each individual on this planet and I strongly believe that it’s all about the journey not the destination. It’s a famous saying and it’s cliché, but it’s the truth and reality that we should understand.

Start-Up OST by Red Velvet Entitled "Future" Is Finally Out!!

This is it reveluvs! A new song from our beloved 5 member group, Red Velvet. As of writing, the OST song for Start-Up called 'Future' is now available in youtube and spotify! 

I've been waiting for this for the whole day, I said I wanted to write something here in the blog before the OST release, but I just can't. My mind is only set for Red Velvet's newest song and I am so joyful that it's finally out. 

Whew! I've missed their voices together for a new song, and finally we're being fed with it after so long. Wendy's voice made me want to scream and ugly cry at the same time the moment she sang the first verse. Damn! I'm such a softie for Wan and as expected of her, she did an excellent job and I'm such a mess right now because I miss her so much. 

Irene and Yeri's voices really are improving so much, I'm so impressed! Their voices are so lovely! Can I just pinpoint also that Irene FINALLY got justifiable amount of lines? OMG I am so proud of her, she deserved it! Finally everyone could hear her beautiful voice. Seulgi on the other hand, is still having that crisp in her voice, the clarity. I so love it! And of course, the sweet voice of Joy is just melting my heart too much. Wendy opened the song and Joy ended it, oh my wenjoy heart it's finally beating again. 💙💚

In the end they all did an amazing job. The uniqueness of their tones standout individually but they all sound great together as well! Only Red Velvet pulls that for me! Ahh! They are so talented, each one of them! 

Tale Of The Nine Tailed, The Fox Bead Has Been Found!

The fox bead that Lee Yeon left with his first love, Ah-eum, has been found in Ji-ah and we all know what that meant! Ah! No wonder that this episode 4 was hinting so much about the resemblance of Ah-eum and Ji-ah. They build up the scenes very well before revealing the main event. It honestly worked with me, the moment Ji-ah called Lee Yeon for a dinner and the happenings thereafter just made me giggle! 

I thought that the underworld part, where Lee Yeon crosses the bridge full of knives, was kind of boring as it was prolonged too much to my liking. We get it he's suffering gravely to protect his girl, and eventually surpassed it just because he got motivated thinking about her. Okay. It got even more boring when it's sided with Ji-Ah chasing by little girls all the way, which didn't even give me chills one bit. lol The could have made the girls looked scary to make it effective to the audience. But hey the hype got back for me when Lee Yeon finally saved her from falling from the roof top and the bead finally activates with a teardrop. Ah my Lee Yeon and Ji-ah/Ah-eum, finally found each other!

Krystal Plays Pregnant Woman For Her First Independent Film, 'More Than Family'

Krystal will be playing her first ever lead role for an Independent Film, More Than Family. 

Krystal's character is named To-il, a college student who becomes pregnant through love, going on a journey to visit her biological father ahead of her marriage. To-il is a reckless, aggressive, brave woman who is not easily intimidated by anyone and has to do whatever she wants to do. (Source: Hancinema)

I've researched about it after I watched the trailer last night and realized that they begun filming since August last year. I wonder why I did not hear about this until just recently! This is so promising considering that Krystal would be the one to play as the lead character and to be able to see her act as a pregnant woman? Wow, just wow! The other day I've written about her portraying a soldier role for her drama series, 'Search' and now I found out about this! Krystal surely is taking her acting career seriously! She's on another level! I'm glad she's up to challenging roles, it would definitely give her acting career some diversity. If this continues, fans would definitely want to see more from her and we'll be looking forward to what other roles she might take in the future. 

The film will be out this November! I'm so excited!

Lee Min Ho Now Endorses LAZADA!

We all have this habit of looking at our phone the moment we wake up, right? So I did that and the next thing I found was Lee Min Ho's advertisement for Lazada's 11.11 sale! lol I thought I was just seeing things but hey it's really Lee Min Ho and he's back again with his remarkable English. haha! I don't think we could forget about that iconic 'disgusting shit', and now we'll be fed with 'Ready for Lazada's 11.11?' and 'Add to cart now' in English! At first I didn't really understand what he said first, but thank god there's subtitles! lol It was a very cute advertisement!

It was reported that Lee Min Ho will be the first regional ambassador of Lazada! He begun his duty by endorsing for the biggest shopping event in Asia this 11.11 along with Filipina actress Kathryn Bernardo, and other Southeast Asian representatives for Lazada.

Red Velvet Will Sing For Bae Suzy's Drama Start-Up

Red Velvet and Bae Suzy's paths will cross again in a drama! It was reported that Red Velvet will sing an OST for Start-Up and it will be released on the same day as well.

The OST will come out this October 17, 6pm KST while the drama itself will air 9pm KST.

If you could still remember, Red Velvet once sang an OST for Suzy's drama before too. It's called 'Dont Push Me' by Red Velvet's Wendy and Seulgi for the drama 'Uncontrollably Fond' (2016). 

I know that it's all just a coincidence but I'd love to think that Suzy and Red Velvet are just meant to be. Lol Our actress Bae Suzy and Red Velvet as our OST singers, what a tandem right? Nation's First Love and Nation's Girl group! What a match!! 

Tale Of The Nine Tailed Maintains A 5.5% Rating

Is it too early to say that I think I'm falling under the spell of Lee Rang for this drama? Kim Bum's character really is so charismatic that I'm fine with whatever he decides to do evilly. lol His sex appeal is just oozing and every smirk could get anyone squeal! He's fantastic! Ah I crave for more! w

In episode 3, my reaction would be not the same excitement and captivation I've had in the last 2 episodes. I feel like the impact of the action scene where Lee Dong Wook saves Jo Bo Ah's character from the shaman was not that much. I was expecting something goblin scene with the slow motion and background music. lol Yes, I was expecting something romantic but hey, it's still all good to me. 

This episode gets darker as we witnessed more deaths which were all caused by non other than the younger half sibling. And we've also had glimpse of their past which I wish we could see more in the next episode. May I just mention how we're now having developments between Lee Yeon and Ji Ah? Hopefully their connection and spark would finally ignite more.

The rating of the last episode from a week ago was 5.557% while episode 3 this week gained 5.588%  nationwide. 

Being A Reveluv Is Tough

It's already this time of the year! It's Christmas season and the only song I wanted to listen to is Wendy's 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas'. 

Actually, now that Red Velvet is in my life, I've always made it a habit to listen to them at least once a day. I think there isn't really a day that I did not listen to them, by group or by their individual songs. I just really love their songs. Good thing is that they have a very wide-ranged discography with different concepts used that I find myself not getting tired with. At least I could say that for now. It's December last year when I came across Red Velvet with their Psycho song so it'll be our 1st anniversary together this year. lol It'll become my first year in stanning them! Yay! 

I know that I'm still considered as new within the fandom but I think nobody would blame me if I state that being a Reveluv right now is very tough. I haven't experienced a full comeback yet from the group so it's kind of hard to stick around just waiting for a looong span of time. You know, the feeling of going crazy already just because there aren't enough new contents to satisfy your cravings? That's how I felt the entire time. It's true that I&S unit debuted this year but, is it wrong for me to wish for a full comeback? I mean 3 comebacks for the Reve Festival Trilogy last year to one sub-unit comeback and a song cover this year? In the end, this is all because of SBS and SM's fault. Ugh.

I Like K-dramas Much Better Than...

I think there will be change of plans with regards to my way of learning Japanese language. I figured that there's not much of Jdorama that fits to my taste at all, so with regards to immersion by listening I'll just stick with J-music and anime. This is only my preference though, I do really think that Jdorama isn't for me and that I should just stick with Kdramas. 

This is actually a good choice because I'm gonna start learning Korean by next year January as I progress with my Japanese studies as well. I've seen a lot of polyglots who do the same and I want to experience learning two languages at a time too. By January, it'll be my 2nd year in learning Japanese language so I think that's already a good foundation that wouldn't confuse me if I ever learn another language. 

So my conclusion is that leaving the drama part for Korean learning and entertainment purposes is a good choice because I really am into it. They say that if you really like something, it would help you get motivated to earn the thing that you wanted.😍

As for my Japanese, I'll continue memorizing and writing Kanji repeatedly, practice output in my journal, as well as watching anime and listening to Japanese music. 

Suzy Will Also Take Part In The Ost Of Her Drama 'Start-Up'

Reports said that Suzy will also sing for the OST of her drama 'Start-Up' that will premiere on TVN this October 17. She will act as the main female protagonist who dreamed of becoming the female Steve Jobs and Nam Joo Hyuk will portray the lead male protagonist who is the founder of Samsan Tech. Basically it'll center on these two dreamers who wanted to achieve success with their start up companies. 

Isn't it something we needed for this period of time? Inspirations to make it on our own and be successful. I'm sure there are a lot of trials that will be unveiled along the way. Success isn't just a flashy word, determination, discipline and actions are keys to achieve it. I can't wait to watch this. I certainly am in need of inspiration as I'm taking a different path and starting on my own, I'm working on a dream that I wanted for a long time. I want some tips! lol This will definitely be on my list to watch this October 17. 

I'm gonna see Suzy acting at the same time singing again after a long time! Yay! This is such a nice treat! 

Krystal Will Portray A Soldier In The Upcoming Drama Entitled 'Search'

OCN upcoming drama 'Search' will premiere this October 17. Krystal together with Jang Dong Woon will portray soldiers who will help solve the mysteries behind the disappearances or murders in demilitarized zones.

This is yet another drama that I've set my eyes on and will surely watch it once released. Krystal's role here is an all rounder lieutenant, intelligent, high stamina, and just having a superb resume in general. Are we going to see a hardworking and passionate soldier here? Seemed like it and I'd love to watch Krystal in action! 

Krystal has a strong persona which is why being a soldier seems fitting to her for a role. Can you just see these photos below? She's so cool and feels like a very reliable soldier in times of chaos. 

I'm excited for this! Let's all see her portrayal and support her till the end!

Tale Of The Nine Tailed: Kim Bum Is Making Everyone Swooned Over His Smile!

I've already finished the 2nd episode of Tale of The Nine Tailed! Gah! Up until now I still control my excitement over this and I just can't wait for Wednesday to come so we could get new episode to watch. I researched about how long it would run and AsianWiki says it will be until November 26. It'll be a total of 16 episodes by then. Hmm..Can you imagine? The week by week waiting in that span of 2 months?! Ahh It seemed like a short span of time but the pain of waiting is what makes everything so difficult. Anyways, I'll do my best to patiently wait for it all for the love of Lee Rang. 

Seriously, this guy is just so super cool! Although we all know that he's a villain and there's a reason behind that from his past that is yet to be revealed and I don't know up to what extent his evilness would travel, but right now even if he's doing mad stuff giving instructions to different creatures to do evil, he still feels like a softy to me. lol Or maybe it's because he always smile/smirk all the time that makes me think differently. But hey! Have I told you how much his grins are like sweet at the first glance that makes you wanna giggle but the more you watch it, it ends up giving you chills? And you found yourself actually scared? LOL It has that effect on me! It's crazy! But I still love him! 💓

Here, let me give you more photos so you'll understand what I meant. 

Krystal Finally Left SM Entertainment After 11 Years Since Debut

This is a good news for me and I bet to everyone else who admire Krystal and f(x) for a long time. It's about time that she set foot out of that company who didn't use her full potential. Nothing's happening with f(x) too and it'll be such a waste to stay in that company without concrete plans of making her grow more as an artist.

Also, I know it's been a long time already but having to see your ex and the people that your sister have bad feelings with everywhere inside the company is just so uncomfortable. I respected Krystal's decision before to renew her contract back in 2016 as she's still trying to make a name for her solo career but now that she's all known and has huge respect over her acting then it's really the right time to be free from SM.

Krystal is now signed in H& Entertainment along with prominent actors like Jung Ryeo Won, Son Dam Bi, In Gyo Jin, So Yi Hyun and a lot more. 

I am looking forward to seeing her career blooms ever more. But now that she's in a new label, does that mean we won't be able to see Krystal singing and dancing again? I can't wait to see what will happen next.

Tale Of The Nine Tailed (Lee Dong-wook, Jo Bo-ah, Kim Bum)- A Highly Recommended Fantasy Drama

OMG! As expected of a fantasy k-drama, it's so freaking amazing! I got goosebumps watching and I just finished episode 1. Wow! That's how impressed I am right now. Thank God I've decided to watch this even if it's still on-going. Tale Of The Nine Tailed just premiered this October 7 and currently has 2 episodes as of writing. It airs every Wednesday and Thursday. I've already watched the first episode and I wanted to share my thoughts about it first before watching the 2nd episode. 

Ah! My excitement over this is so high right now. This is a TVN k-drama so I already expected that the story got some idea adaptation or similarities from the first three hits Goblin, A Korean Odyssey and Hotel Del Luna, and boy I am so right. You'll understand what I meant after you watch the first episode.

Old Photos of SCANDAL! They Are So Cute!!

During my prime years in stanning SCANDAL (band), I have saved a lot of photos and videos of them. Because those were the days where updates were treated as gold. The members don't own accounts on instagram and twitter yet. Or I think they already have twitter but they rarely post anything. Photos were very rare and if some videos were posted on youtube, you just gotta download them fast because it'll be taken down within the 24 hours or even shorter than that. We lived in the old age, but that was a fun experience in my fandom so I'm not gonna complain. 

As I was saying, I have downloaded a lot of goodies from the past so I'm gonna share them to you all now. Sharing is caring, after all. 

If you're a new fan of SCANDAL, these old photos may become a treasure for you. They are still young here! Enjoy!

Irene & Seulgi Performed Naughty & Monster in Asia Song Festival 2020

October 10, Red Velvet's sub-unit Irene & Seulgi performed Naughty and Monster in Asia Song Festival 2020. The event was held in Gyeongju, the North Gyeongsang Province of South Korea and was hosted by NCT Doyoung and CLC's Yeeun. It was broadcasted through livestream. 

Aside from Irene & Seulgi along with the other Kpop idols who performed, part of the line-up were artists from other countries. Japan's famous idol group AKB48 performed too!

Our Irene & Seulgi sported a very charismatic performance as expected! One other noticeable thing is that Irene is back with her bangs again and she's just so cute! They both looked gorgeous and are amazing with their performance. 

Hopefully we could see Red Velvet as a whole the next live performance, if not, then it's okay too. I'll still wait patiently for that precious moment to come. 

AKB48 Is Still The Best J-Idol Group Of All Time

The title is pretty extreme right? But for me, AKB48 is really the best J-Idol group of All Time for me. Even though my favorite generation in AKB has ended their legacy and impact still reigns in my Jpop fandom. You all know how I try to immerse myself in the Japanese language and that I'm continuously looking for new artists that I could listen to and maybe motivate me too, right? No matter how much I try, I still go back to AKB48. Their sound is familiar, giving me nostalgia and it makes me want to cry. lol Their music feels great, they are all impressive and maybe I'm reacting this way because I have great memories of this group in the past. Even though I've became outdated about them for a long time, as my fandom stilled into hiatus, my admiration towards them still sparks every time I listen to their song.
