Ever Wonder What’s Your Korean Name?

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?

Pareho tayo.:clap:I can like a song even though I don’t know what the meaning of the lyrics as long as it has a catchy beat. My favorite girl group is SNSD.:boogie: And my top favorite boy groups are Super Junior and Bigbang. Hay, too bad, di ko makikita ang Super Junior. I want to see Kyuhyun.
According to the site, my Korean name is Kwon Ha Neul. Ang cute.

You should try listening to After School and SHINee too;p (though the latter is a group of YOUNG boys….)

And I hate that generator. Haha. I don’t like the name it gives me. :p

  I’ve actually listened to them already, they’re good too but nothing about them excites me.
