OH MY GIRL - LIAR LIAR

Also released yesterday was Oh My Girl's new song "LIAR LIAR."

I don't know about anyone else but the song reminds me of Red Velvet's "Dumb Dumb"

and seems similar to Dalshabet's "Someone Like You." The song also has a melody
that resembles 4Minute's "What A Girl Wants."As it is a good song,
it just seems really familiar. Anyway, it is an upbeat and catchy song,

check it out below and let me know what you think.

Block B - A Few Years Later

Yesterday Block B released "A Few Years Later."

This melodramatic song is about a guys sorrow after a breakup

and his wonder of what the future might bring. He wonders if they will regret

parting, or if they will ever see each other again. This song rather accurately

describes what we all feel when we say goodbye. The vocals are

mellow and somber to match the message and the instrumental

is slow and emotional.

As always the video can be found below.

Jun Hyo Seong - Find Me

Jun Hyo Seong recently released "Find Me."

I feel as though this song about a girl afraid of losing her love has an almost

Techno-Pop vibe. The song is both energetic and dramatic

and has a catchy chorus.

Listen to Hyo Seong's "find Me" below.

Hyomin - Sketch

Hyomin's new song "Sketch" is definitely unique.

The song somehow is able to be both sweet and sexy at the same time. The video,

however, is just sexy, very sexy. The song has a sweet lullaby tone

while also being soft and sensual. I have to say I am very impressed with

both the song and the video which has a "Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" vibe.

You can find Hyomin's new video below.

A.cian - TOUCH

Recent videos have been proving that spring is the season of love, and A.cian's "TOUCH" is no exception. This super quirky video makes reference to Rapunzel as

the guys reach for a girls approval. This is a cute take on young love and a very

playful video. Now I don't know about anyone else but I get a B1A4 vibe.

Check it out below, and let me know what you think.

Marychou - Tonight Vals

Marychou released their new video on March 20th.
Though I am not confident on the English name, both the song and video help to display
a beautiful love story and a wonderfully romantic expression of spring love.
This super sweet video is definitely worth the watch, check it out below.

BeautyHandsome - Felt Like Forever

On March 24th mixed gender band BeautyHandsome released "Felt Like Forever."

This upbeat love song with a super quirky video is a win in my book

The vocals leave something to be desired but they are good enough that the rest of the song

makes up for them. The goofing off in the video is really nice to see with the song and

everything flows together nicely. Aside from that, it is nice to see another band competing

with CN Blue and FT Island. Even better they are mixed gender.

Check out the video for "Felt Like Forever" below.

CLC - High Heels (Full Version)

CLC has released the long-awaited full version of "High Heels."

If you are interested, the short version can be found here: http://4lovekorea.blogspot.com/2016/03/clc-high-heels-short-version.html

As for the full version, I feel as though it adds a lot to the song, which is to be expected. 

The video is both cute and quirky, and the girls all seem to be having a lot of fun.

You can check out the full version below.

Eric Nam - Good For You

Released on March 23rd, Eric Nam's new song "Good For You" has a much different

meaning than I initially thought.

When I first heard the name "Good For You" my initial thought was sarcastic,

I assumed the song was something like "you're pretty, good for you, see if I care" on

the contrary the song is a guy's way of saying why he thinks he would be good for a girl.

The song is slow, rhythmic, and soothing. Each note breaths of emotion and each chord

harmonizes perfectly with the last. I personally think Eric Nam outdid himself with this one.

As always, check out this video below.

Lee Seong Wook - To See

"To See" was released March 16th.

This soft melodic song seems to be about a love that faded away. I cannot say this

for a fact because I cannot find the lyrics. however, the song and video both share

a somber feel with the reminiscence of a broken heart.

Even without much to say about it, this is a really touching song that is a worthwhile listen.

Hong Jin Young - Thumbs Up

New song by Trot-Pop singer Hong Jin Young released March 23rd.

This song is very upbeat and fun. I found myself dancing and singing along my first

time hearing it. This super catchy song also has a very traditional sounding instrumental,

it sounds almost historical and I could honestly see this song being in a Kdrama for one

reason or another. This music video has a very interesting use of color as well as a

slightly unfocused camera angle giving the atmosphere a retro feel.

This is one song I would surely recommend and you can check it out below.

Red Velvet - One of These Nights

On the 16th Red Velvet released "One of These Nights" (7/7 in Korean).

This song is a saddening song of love, loss, and tragedy; however, theory fights between the

possible meanings of this song. Some believe it is a tribute to those lost during

the sinking of the Sewol ferry, while others believe it to be referencing the old Chilseok

folk tale. Whatever the story the song speaks of the sad separation from love,

as well as the feelings of emptiness and loneliness associated with being separated from

those we care about. We may never know the true meaning of this song, or we may lie

waiting for an official statement from SM, but even without a true meaning, we can

still embrace the emotion this beautiful song has to offer.

As always you can find the video below.

Yuju & Sunyoul - Cherish

On the tenth of this month, Gfriend's Yuju and Up10tion's Sunyoul released the duet

"Cherish." This duet is a sweet and uplifting song about falling in love.

I feel as thought both singers were in their own element in the tone of this song

and brought out the best in each other's talents throughout both the song and accompanying video.

Check out the duet for yourself below.

New Job

So as anyone who keeps up with my blog has noticed, I haven't been posting lately.

This is because I have just recently gotten a new job. Now until I can learn to balance my

time better, I will be posting one or two days a week. I will try to get posts made as soon

as possible but bear with me for a while-while I try to get things under control.

Fiestar - Mirror

My favorite video of the night, Fiestar's "Mirror."

This song is sad, provocative, seductive, and intense all at the same time.

The people who wrote this video and song both have a strong sense of captivating an audience,

and the girls successfully embody the emotions and essence of this song. The song makes

you feel and embrace the idea of a lost love and the feeling of emptiness, and allows you

to get lost in the music.
Video Below.

JJCC - ToDay

In short JJCC's new video is super cute.

The video and song as a whole have a cheery lovely atmosphere. The look to be

having a bunch of fun and the concept was well executed.

On a side note, this video contains the same carousel as the debuts for both

Twice and Voisper.

Check out this adorable video below.

Cosmic Girls Debut - Part 2

After 3 weeks Starship Entertainment has finally released Cosmic Girls second

debut MV "Catch Me."

Honestly. It's bad.

The song is really disappointing, vocal quality is depressing, and the overall tone of the

song is super boring. As for the video, t is poorly executed and completely

out of focus. The only savior for this song is EXY's rapping ability, and for that

alone I say it is worth watching.

Jimin Ft. Xiumin - Call You Bae

AoA's Jimin and EXO's Xiumin released a duet yesterday titled "Call You Bae."

Honestly, even though Jimin is my AoA bias (aside from Youkyung who is AoA black only)

I was not impressed with this song. Although the video is both cute and fun the song is

rather slow with a ballad-like feel. I do not think this kind of song suits Jimin's vocals
and it honestly doesn't sound good to me, however, I would like to hear what other
people think and how you think it compares to "PUSS" which I think is more
suited to Jimin's vocals. Both videos can be found below and I
would love to hear your comments.

Lee Seung Gi - Meet Someone Like Me

After Lee Seung Gi's enlistment in the military 1theK releases "Meet Someone Like Me."
"Meet Someone Like Me" is a selfless song about a guy who wants a girl to be
happy, even without him. The song is said to have been a gift from PSY to
Lee Seung Gi. Fans also believe the song is intended for ex-girlfriend Im Yoona.
As always I will be posting the video below and let me know what you think in the comments.

Mamamoo Recipe and My Hometown

Mamamoo recently released videos for both Recipe and My Hometown.

Both videos are super cute and display the girls in a natural environment without makeup

and show them goofing around and having fun. "Recipe" displays the girls cooking

and joking around, including Moonbyul having fun with a container of salt, and Hwasa

getting handsy. While "My Hometown" shows the girls traveling around, visiting sites,

and having fun. Check out both the light hearted videos below.

Voisper Debut

Voisper (voice and whisper) just released their debut video "In Your Voice."

The video has a very eloquent and relaxing atmosphere that fit the song perfectly.

The song itself is a very soft and sweet with a romantic and somber tone.

All the guys' voices are soothing and beautiful and the song and video, combined with

the member's voices, actually caused me to tear up. Overall it is a wonderful debut and

in my opinion, a must hear.

CLC is back with 2 new members and a short MV.

After gaining members Elkie and Eunbin, from Project 101, the girls have returned

with the song "High Heels." The short version of the video is rather cute and fun.

Hopefully though, we will get to see a full version once Produce 101 concludes.

The short version, however, can be found below.
