Lately it's been a huuuge boom with korean pop music around the world. Mostly in Asia I think. Maybe I'm one of the few girls who don't care much about Korean boy groups and girl groups. I'm sorry, but to me most songs sound the same and I get the feeling that the music is not as important as the looks and attitude are.
By this post I don't mean that you can't like K-pop girl and boy groups, but I just feel like people are missing some really good music! And I actually do listen to Girl's Generation sometimes too ;D

So now I want to introduce some other S. Korean music because Korean music isn't just about the boy and girl groups. :D
Nell - 어떻게 생각해 (What do you think)
This is my favorit song from my favorite Korean band Nell. They are an indie rock band. Very emotional. I'm so in love with this song.
Clazziquai - Robotica
Another song that I like is this one. It's by an electro pop band.
Yozoh - 허니 허니 베이비(Honey Honey Baby)
Her music is too cute~ I used one of her songs in my last circle lens review. She also made music to the Korean drama called Coffee Prince.
MC Mong- Ice Cream
Just because we need a little bit of rap here~ I like that he doesn't take himself too seriously.
What do you think? Do you have any great Korean songs to share? ^___^
ahhh I really love It's Okay by nell! I haven't heard much of their stuff but that one is so pretty too!
ReplyDeleteI really love that song too! Nell is great! I just wonder when they'll come back :/ I think they're doing army now... Hmm
ReplyDeleteHmm the only one I have heard of is Yozoh (who's album I can't seem to find ANYWHERE) but I really enjoyed Nell I will have to check them out!
ReplyDeleteI will admit my favorite Korean bands right now are girl groups 2ne1 and Orange Caramel....
Hi LOVEEE your blog and I just have to sayyy hell yes on the nell and Clazziquai mention. these bands really need more recognition! Especially in a market like Korea that seems to be completely over saturated with idol groups. 8D
ReplyDeleteHow funny! Nell and Clazziquai are my favorites! Along with Epik High ^^ Glad to know that you enjoy them also!
ReplyDeleteI really liked Robotica with Clazziquai and Ice Cream with MC Mong~ ^^
ReplyDeleteCherry Filter is my favourite korean band~ ♫

haha sorry for posting so much > < im like a korean music fanatic xD
I really like MC Mong's songs ^__^ one of the first artist that I listened to when i first got into kpop a few years ago :D
ReplyDeleteBig bang <33
omg I LOVE Clazziquai & Yozoh ♥
ReplyDeleteI used to really like KPop, but I think ever since it kind of 'boomed' all over the internet, I've lost pretty much all interest in it :/ Overloaddd, haha~
supreme team is super underrated too -___- they're a great hip hop duo and crazy talented but nobody's satisfied with just talent and skill anymore :/
ReplyDeleteHAHAH you like NELL? I think they made ONE song (that I can remember) that became quite the hit in Korea. *nods* I'm more into those funky hiphop/pop/r'n'b groups, tho. I never really liked indie. The music is usually a bit to 'odd' for me.. if that makes sense >_<"
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry if you got offended by this post. It wasn't my purpose :/ I understand that music like NELL is not for everyone, but I feel like you laughed at me because I like them. O_oAnd I didn't say that it's not okay to like the boy bands and girl bands, I listen to some of that too (as I mentioned).
ReplyDeleteI listened to them now! Thank you for recommend them! They're actually really good! Yeah, I feel the same way :/
ReplyDeleteMe too! X3Haha, yeah, but I can some how understand why people get obsessed, they appear in many shows and their personalities seem to be fun and so on.
ReplyDeleteHe's really good I think :3
ReplyDeleteThank you so so much for your recommendations! You have very good taste in music! :3
ReplyDeleteThey're really good songs! :3
ReplyDeleteCherry Filter is also good! <3
I'm happy to hear that! ^____^Same here! I'm listening to Epik High right now and I must say that I like them right away! :3 to Epik High right now and I must say that I like them right away! :3
ReplyDeleteThank you~! ^____^ I'm happy you like it!I totally agree on this! *___* There are soo many good bands that doesn't get enough attention.
ReplyDeleteReally? D: That's bad! Did you try to search for it in hangul?----> 요조
ReplyDeleteIf you like Nell, check out these songs too:

Actually I love almost all their songs, or at least every song of them that I've heard :)
I'm checking out Orange Caramel now. They're a little like Girl's generation :) ultra super cute :D
허니 허니 베이비 is my ringtone! c:
ReplyDeleteReally? ^___^ It's very very cute!
ReplyDeleteTbh, I don't really get this Korean pop music boom. I agree with you on what you said about it. + it feels like they're trying to hard to be american-ish. xD I do like Nell and Clazziquai though (and a bunch of other korean rock groups) but I still prefer Japanese music. :D
ReplyDeleteI love the songs! Do you have any Japanese band suggestions? I would love to listen to japanese music but I do not know where to start! :)
