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?
