It’s been a year since K-pop took Philippines by storm. If my memory serves me right, it was March last year when Wondergirls became a household name not only here in Asia, but in the Western regions as well, when they toured with the Jonas Brothers. Sandara Park, who had been once a part of our local entertainment industry, and her Korean girl group 2NE1 can also be held responsible for getting many Filipinos curious and end up being inclined with K-pop.
I’m guilty of singing Korean songs without knowing what they mean. Lame, I know. But I’m the type of person who can like a song with just it’s catchy beat. Well, good to know I’m not alone. I listen to these stuff at work and I even got my officemates, be it guys or girls, addicted to almost anything Korean I listen to.
As of the moment, my top favorite Korean girl groups are Kara and SNSD; as for Korean boy group, the one and only Super Junior
, who will be having their first ever concert here in the Philippines on April 10, 2010 at Araneta Coliseum as part of their Super Show 2 Tour (which reminds me, I haven’t gotten tickets yet
). I’m sure it’s gonna be as awesome as their other performances I’ve seen on YouTube. I’m stoked! Eunhyuk, I can’t wait to see you!
And oh, I’ve just discovered U-Kiss and starting to like them bit by bit. Hoping to see them on Megamall this Friday! That is, if I could get off work early. *crosses fingers*
Anyway, I came across this Korean Name Generator and I decided to give it a try.
Won’t take more than a minute of your time, just enter your English name and a Korean name will be generated! According to that website, mine is Park Ri Rin. Not bad, eh? What’s yours? ![]()
My parents came home last week to spend a two-week (or rather, a month-long after I reschedule their flight back) vacation here, and this weekend we went on a 2-day shopping spree at the ever famous place when it comes to buying cheap stuff: Divisoria.
I can’t totally remember how DV looks like since I was still a kid the first time we went there and had nothing that I wanted to buy back then. Now, It’s still a very busy and jam-packed place and I scoured the place with eagerness this time as a materialistic grown-up girl, lol.
And yeah, it was the first time I stepped foot at 168 Mall.
Too bad I can’t take pictures of the place since it was best not to bring any gadget or expensive stuff with you as pickpockets/snatchers are everywhere.
So I took pictures of the loots I got from DV instead:
It’s 3 polo shirts which costs 180-200 PHP each, a white sling bag/handbag that costs 150 PHP. Also, not in the pic, is a pretty, shiny silver ponytail holder which I got for only 30 PHP. Very cheap huh? These are all I got for myself, the rest are for my parents.
Guess what, I never thought that I’d see there stuff being sold at SM Department stores. Next time I should check out if DV has it before SM.
Can’t wait for our next Divisoria visit!
Have you been to DV before? ![]()
