Love Me Tender

Sorry for the lack of posting. My trip to Asia was great. I got to have a lot of family time and spend time with my grandmother. I enjoyed it very much. Big thanks to Kazuma for posting while I was gone.

So someone tried to leave a comment on my seemingly popular post about Tiffany from SNSD by leaving a link to an online petition for Tiffany anti-fans for SNSD to disband. What the heck? Seriously, people need lives. If the commenter is reading this, your comment went into my spam folder where it belongs. I personally don’t care about Tiffany or SNSD and while I am an advocate for free speech, I do not want to endorse childish stupidity or bullying when there are so many more serious issues that need the efforts of petitioning.

In other news, has anyone else noticed the increasing reunion tours/concerts/album productions by old disbanded groups? First it was the Spice Girls, and then it was Jewelry (yes, I’m jumping across nations here), then it was X-Japan and now it’s New Kids on the Block. When the Spice Girls first stated that they were going to have a reunion tour I thought to myself, who would be stupid enough to go see them. Well, I found out that there were many stupid people in the world including some of my friends. All I have to say to that is oiy! I didn’t care much for Jewelry and I found their debut song really annoying and sickeningly catchy. I was looking forward to the X-Japan tour and I was hoping to see them in New York if I could get tickets. So much for that. NKOTB…I actually came to Canada just after their craze had died down so I wasn’t really there for their initial hype. Their song Summerdays is really catchy (damn those catchy pop songs!) and I wonder if they will have the same success as the Spice Girls. Anyway, that is all. =)

I love the new Korean show, We Got Married. There are eight celebrities who are paired off into four couples and they get married on the show. Then every two weeks they are filmed as a newlywed couple with missions to complete, which involves some bonding activity that bring them closer together. The four couples in no particular order are: 1) Andy Lee (Shinhwa) and Solbi (Typhoon), 2) So In Young (Jewelry) and Crown J, 3) Alex (Clazziquai) and Shin Ae, 4) Saori and Jung Hyung Dong.

I know it’s not real, but Alex is so charming and I have a crush on him ^_^. Haha, actually he’s not really my type, but his charm is quite irrestable. Anyway, here are links for parts of episodes with English subtitles thanks to coolsmurf.
