Finally Found Someone(s)

Lelz.

I've been looking for a crush for quite some time now and congratulations to me, I already found not just one, but seven. SEVEN!

Anyway, my almost-40 year-old-ass is a little embarrassed to say that I'm fangirling on BTS right now. I know I'm a little late to the party but late is still better than never, y'all! And I'm glad I am on the bandwagon. Ngayon na lang ako ulit kinikilig hahahaha! Leche.

So this is what happened... my ate and I are both bingeing on Kdramas, separately. She just watched Hwarang, a history/period drama; whereas I would not and have not watched any period dramas cos it's just not my cup of tea. Ayun after watching Hwarang she started watching BTS videos on YouTube. Endlessly. On loop. She asked me if I know any BTS songs- Boy With Luv and Fake Love lang kasi they play those songs on The Morning Rush and sometimes those videos play in between Blackpink playlists on YouTube. That's it. I wasn't paying much attention to them. Pre-BTS obsession, they all looked the same to me. The last boyband I 'shipped was Shinhwa and that was 15 years ago. Reason why my Ate got into BTS pala was because one of the casts of Hwarang (V!) was a member of the group, so that's how she discovered them. And in turn, I discovered BTS through her (with continuous BTS songs on loop the entire day). Ang laki pala ng nagagawa ng pagbra-brainwash. Haha!

So.. shet, no turning back na ito. And my BTS heart is excited for June 14! AC and I will be watching BTS Bang Bang Con: The Live on Sunday! HUZZAH!!! Potek kinikilig ako hahaha! Exciiiiited ♥

Anyway... my first bias was Jungkook. Tapos after watching videos of the group, si Taehyung na ♥ So adorable!  Here are a few fave music videos of the group, for reference to my future self (sa kung anu-anong pinaggagawa ko)

Here's my pinaka-favorite sa favorites:

Mic Drop


and this one also is one of my most favorites because.. Jungkook ♥

DNA


and this one, too

Spring Day


Aren't they cute? Sobra, no? Every member has his own charm. Walang tapon. I may have my biases, but all seven members are equally important to the group.

Haay. Grateful for this- just one of the few things that is helping me get through this pandemic.

moony mondays

While most of the world is dreading Mondays, I, on the other hand, love love love Mondays. I can do everything my heart desires guilt-free.

Watching the last two episodes of Lie To Me and doing a little reminiscing on youtube





Miss those days... watching Soy in Pops in Seoul on Arirang TV every Friday. Grabe how time flies. I love Korean MVs because they are already mini-movies with cute, sad or sometimes tragic love stories.


A Wolf's Attraction! Loved this movie to bits! How can you not? The story's nice and Jo Han Sun es muy guapo. I have to find my copy of this movie and watch it again. And The Classic.

Full House. Another series I loved. Why don't they make series like this more often? Before there were a lot of good ones then. In fairness naman maraming bagong series na maganda ngayon like 49 Days, Cinderella's Sister and Lie To Me. 

Once you pop, you can't stop... K-vid edition

I'm so in love with Korean love songs and their videos. That's me, always in love with love.

I love how their videos seem like mini-movies that tell brief stories of bittersweet love.

Anyway, here are the videos of some of my favorite Korean songs.

Here's Lee Seung-chul's song included in the drama Phoenix/Firebird. I love love love this song. Same goes with the drama. The lead actress's good except we won't be seeing more of her since she committed suicide almost 2 years ago.

Bad trip, the author has disabled the embed feature kaya I can't put the video here. Xmas, view mo yang video, si Han Ji-hye yan. I super love this video, too. I first saw it in Pops in Seoul and since then, I'm in love with it. After that day, I frantically searched on the net where to download this song. This was from a Banjun drama starring Han Ji-hye and Eric Moon. Eric's schnoz is so big I can't believe I had a crush on him before.

Kiss's Because I'm a Girl video. The video that started my Korean-video fixation. I remember Xmas and I spending lots of time on the phone discussing whether or not the guy is gay. Pero pamatay pa rin ang 8-minute video na 'to. Also memorable 'tong video na ito since it made Juno cry. Haha! Si Juno ay bato kaya bilib ako sa video na ito. Juno, peace!

I love Park Hyo-shin's voice and this is one of his videos..

Used in the drama Mianhada, Saranghada, another drama I love love love. Ajusshi, saranghae!

And here's the ultimate kasi it's almost 11 minutes long. Although I don't really like Jo Sung-mo, I super like the video. Take note of the elevator scene.

So there, some of my fave songs and videos. I can't understand most of them that's why I rely on the videos to understand the song. But I also like the melodies and the voice of the singers.

I have a problem nga... Lately, there are no good Korean songs and videos coming out. New videos coming out now are more of the those annoying, synthesizer-like songs that remind me of Shalalala and the Sexbomb dancers. :(

Yoon Do Hyun's Saranghaet Na Bwa

Translation of the song...
I think I loved you
translated by: Yoonie (also credit: aheeyah.com)

Separating with someone is easier than meeting them,
that cold person took all of my heart.

I don't understand why I miss them so much.

I think I loved you, I can't seem to forget you
I keep thinking of you, that it's hard to control.
I think I'm regretting, I think I'm waiting for you
I didn't realize it at first but I feel nervous
whenever I someone's back image resembles yours.

Memories fade as the seasons change, someone coldly stated.
I live each day empty without love,
so I wait for someone to take in my imperfect love.

I want to act like I didn't see you
look away with a hurtful glare.
At least once I want to look behind me
and believe that you were hurt before.

I think I'm a fool, I'm unable to say a word
not even a quick hello to ask how you are.
I think you're happy, your bright face
continues to make me feel less important,
just like how your features are fading away.

Soon I'll meet someone else
whose beauty resembles yours.
Still that person won't be you,
so I think I'll be sad, you're a person I can't forget.
