How I discovered Kpop.
One lunch break, we went to my classmate's home. It was not that big and we were cramped up in their sofa.
While talking we found this pirated DVD-yes, pirated DVD's are a
trend in the philippines- with a cover of 9 girls wearing colored jeans. I
asked my friend to play it, for there was nothing fun to do. The first video
was entitled Gee by Girl's Generation. We really thought that the lyrics in the
video were the exact one, but the fact that it was english was weird. One
day, I searched through the internet and found out that the lyrics we memorized
were actually from an anti video. The lyrics were full of f* words.
While searching, a friend of mine recommended
to open this certain group called 2ne1 and their video fire. SHe told me that
Sandara Park was in the group and that got me curious. This group was a 100%
different from Girl's Genertaion and I find it unique. The song was amazing and
before I realized it I just kept singing eh eh eh eh. Since then, they became
my favorite girl group. No group can live up to their uniqueness.
One day, while watching 2ne1's Music Videos, AGAIN. I came across this
one certain video entitled HARU HARU of Bigbang so I clicked the video. THere
goes my tears, my shirt was soaking wet, and the emotions kept pouring. On that
instant, I became a VIP. I watched and downloaded all their Music Videos,
watched all the nearly non existent variety shows they're in. And downloaded
songs I liked.
That was the time I also realized that buying physical albums was never a good idea.4 years after, I'm still a big BlackJack and VIP. I'm even a YG Stan, I stan Winner, Jailbaits Team B, Akdong Musician, Lee Hi, and Epik High. I also think that Gummy was a big lost in the company, and I'm missing se7en a lot.
I'm telling you, I produced more than 20 VIP's in the past 2 years using the Music Video Haru Haru. :)
