After months and months of endless teasers of _ _ _ (fill in the blank) an actual MV of the new boyband EXO has been revealed to the public a few days ago. It screams SM ENTERTAINMENT all over due to the simple moves yet it catches the eye. Also, the 12 members concept is a bit old don't you think? This concept was popularized by boyband Super Junior and let's just say that too many members is too much and is a lot of disadvantage to the other members of the group. Though the MV for both is eye catching, and has two different versions, [Korean & Chinese] it still has the same version & dance.
B.A.P one of the most anticipated Korean Boy Band to debut this year, finally released their music video for their debut track 'Warrior'. For the first time in 5 years, finally a boyband who did not go through the cute concept. No offence to the other boybands out there, but B.AP set the bar for their debut, making other companies worried for their own trainees.
B.A.P which stands for Best.Absolute.Perfect is a boy band created by TS Entertainment home to girl group SECRET & duo UNTOUCHABLE has released their debut MV 'Warrior' instead of the usual cute concept that most Korean Boy Bands picture, B.A.P took the hip-hop route which only idol boy band BIGBANG took 5 years ago.
It seems to be that B.A.P's signature image is the glittering head rabbit, it was used in Bang Yong Gook's single and it was also used when maknae ZELO released a song with leader Bang Yong Gook. The head rabbit is something new to the K-Pop Industry.
In other words B.A.P is a breathe of fresh air to the K-POP scene.
I've babbled long enough, so without further ado! Here is B.A.P's debut MV Warrior
I've never scene a Korean Boy Band rock the Platinum Hair. Also, all of them took the platinum blonde hair color, which can be taken as a disadvantage to the group, since no one can recognized who is who, but they rocked the hair style, so I won't be complaining.
Another posts, since I couldn't compressed all of today's posts into one. So here is another K-POP news. Wonder Girls released their music video for THE DJ IS MINEfeaturing SCHOOL GYRLS an American Girl Group. The song is very nice indeed, but the music video lacks promotion. I mean they are promoting two girl groups in the American Market and yet the video is low quality, you can barely see the girls' faces which means a lot of viewers won't recognize their faces. Check out the music video & see for youself

EXO
It's been a long time since I post something about this group and their releases. Though this group is still in the dark, (yes SM ENT has not revealed all members names of the group) in the last teaser video that was released it is expected that the boyband will have 12 members [other member is not shown in the image] and that they will be split in half EXO-K & EXO-M, their debut is still in the dark but rumors say that the group will debut in INKIGAYO with all the groups debuting this year, I hope this group wouldn't be buried under the sand, but with all the teaser SM ENTERTAINMENT has been releasing lately, I doubt this group will be forgotten.
Aside from the Multi-colored hair, MBLAQ is back with another chart topping single. The Song & Music Video we're produced very well. The acting wasn't overly done either, but the bullet was too much. I mean who can do that trick in real-life though I give props to the editor of the Music Video since it was done wonderfully. Check it out below.
MBLAQ - IT'S WAR
JASON CHEN
I said before that it's been a long time since I listened to English Songs and let's just say a popular youtube singer has broken the unbreakable <me>. Jason Chen delivers an amazing Song & Music Video to top it off with. With the help of The DreamLapse Project the team created an emotional & moving Music Video. Let's face it, a lot of us probably fell in-love with our bestfriend at one point in our life. Check out the song & music video. I promise you, it won't disappoint.

Birthday: May 23, 1992
Status: Single || In A Relationship || Engaged || Married || Divorced
I was born in a little town called Baritao in the Philippines. I lived there for 11 years and moved to Canada. I've been living in Canada ever since, and of course I've visited
the Philippines once. I can speak Pangasinan, Tagalog & English though I'm a bit slow with understading & reading Pangasinan sentences. I work & I go to college. I enjoy listening to
K-POP & R&B Music, I love to dance and sing around the house. I enjoy making Minitokyo Layouts & playing with different shades of colors, sometimes I even surprise myself due to the
result of my experiments. I love to watch Korean TV Dramas, Variety Shows & etc. Once in a while I watch anime's specifically BLEACH, GUNDAM SEED, GUNDAM SEED DESTINY, GHOST HUNT & others.
Luminous Rain || Minitokyo Layouts
Luminous-Rain has been with me since July 2011. I once blogged in Tumblr but it only gives me the ability to posts a few stuff. Searched and Searched the web for a blogging site
that can provide my need and I happen to stumble upon Blogger. Luminous-Rain is the third name of the site, it first started with Hime-Dreams but since the name seem a
bit off I decided to go with S-KoreAii but it seems too direct, so I decided to change the name of the site again and I came up with Luminous-Rain I don't really know what it
means, but I really love the name that I came up with so I changed it again, there is the story of how Luminous-Rain came to life.
Love is a continous shattering piece of mirror that leaves everyone a painful memory to carry on to their lives
Live life to the fullest, don't give a reason to anyone to ruin your day or your future! Continue walking like your walking through a path of cloud
Life is precious, it is given by GOD and therefore no human being should take another human being's life. It is only GOD who is able to give and take life away.
Our parents, are merely a vessel given to us by GOD so that someone will pass GOD's love to us. Therefore treat your parent's respect and show them how you appreciate their hardships.
