K-Pop

I suppose this wouldn't be a legitimate blog if I didn't make mention of Korean pop music. This is the music you will hear literally everywhere you go. Supermarkets, restaurants, department stores, walking down the street; your students will sing it, your friends will sing it, heck, your boss will even sing it. Because Koreans are fascinated with English, you'll find an English phrase in nearly every song. However, K-Pop is quite transitory by nature. Songs come and go. When a new hit song gets big, you hear it everywhere. You can't get it out of your head. Eventually, you'll feel like shooting yourself in the head to make it go away. But just before that point, a new song will emerge, and the vicious cycle starts once again. I feel like no one is neutral to K-Pop, you either love it, or love to hate it. Currently, 2NE1 (pronounced "21") is really big. I will attach their music video entitled "I don't Care" for your viewing pleasure. But, I must warn, view at your own risk. If you can't understand Korean, the girls are singing about their boyfriends who are seeing other girls, the girls are saying that they have had enough, that they can do better, and that they don't care anymore. But you can probably figure that out anyways. Enjoy :)
