Media Log #3: This Is K-Pop!

I do not know why other people like Korean Pop music, also known as K-Pop, even though they cannot understand the lyrics of the song but for me, I know the reasons why I listen to K-Pop music. The reasons are because of its catchy rhythm, the dance steps and most especially, the artists itself. The music video I shared to you is my most favorite video because it is the first song album I anticipated since I become a K-Pop fan.

The video entitled “I Got A Boy” was released on this year’s New Year Day. Many fans all over the world waited for this day mainly because it was sung and performed by Girls’ Generation – the most famous and renowned K-Pop group. Since I am a male fan, I do not focus on the lyrics of the song because it is about a love story of a girl until the story of her break up. The video also shows the girls as stunningly amazing with a style different from their previous songs. The group’s comeback even placed a new record online.

As years go by, there are increasing numbers of K-Pop fan. At this exact date, it will be five months since the K-Pop Concert here in Manila that includes Girls’ Generation. That was the most memorable time of my life - the moment when I saw them personally instead of just watching it in front of the screen. This song was still fresh at that time and I remembered it was the last song they performed. All the fans’ eyes were teary yet amazed during that last song as they sing along with the fan chant. I hope this blog will also serve as a petition for them to have a solo concert tour here in Manila.
