Re: Look at Me: The Photo Book in K-pop

saharial — Thu, 10 Apr 2014 21:28:02 -0000

I collect the Shinhwa photobooks, not just because I'm fan of them, but I as I am a keen photographer. Kim Jung Man did the 'Wild' photoshoot in the Philippines as well as their 4th Album photography and I really like his work. He's also done many of Sung SiKyung's album photography. I like looking at photographic composition, colour palettes and moods and how the singers, their company and the photographer want them to be portrayed.

Re: [EDITORIAL]: Is there such a thing as privacy for South Korean idols?: Son Ho Young’s Tradegy.

There has been very little privacy in situations like this for a long time now. Back in 2002, when JunJin of Shinhwa had a near fatal accident on set of a variety show, reporters even managed to get into hospital to take photographs of him in his coma. Being behind a camera of any kind turns you into an observer and detaches you from the reality of a situation and clearly, in this case, any sense of humanity or compassion.

I think its great to be honest, its about time idols were allowed to be themselves for a change. As for the e-cigarette (if it is one) - would netizens rather he was smoking a real one? most e-cigarette smokers I know are trying to quit smoking and surely people should be happy he is taking care of himself and his voice?

track 09 - Sure I Know (이별... 그리고) - from 'Hey! Come On!' is my favourite B-track. The minor harmonies are really interesting.

Glad to see someone else has some loved for Yoon Jong shin. I'm very fond of: "너에게 간다" from his 10th album. Kim Yeon Woo's '사랑한다는 흔한 말' is also a really lovely ballad :)

I think its a shame that they aren't allowed to play live. Their gig at the O2 in London was such an amazing experience - they really really loved what they were doing - something that obviously comes across much better in live performances. I can't see their career path slowing down any time soon - they offer something a little bit more than the average and are not a cookie-cut formulaic pop (i like pop, don't get me wrong, but sometimes you need something healthy to balance off the sugar ;) )

It used to be wasabi peas until I cracked a molar on one :( but I lik cashews or anything spicy like thai chilli crackers or Japanese rice crackers. Yogurt coated raisins are also pretty good for nibbles :)

I always call that feeling the 'undertow' - its unsettling isn't it. I hope the planned weekend helps that evaporate :)

... and the more I think about this - it bothers at me that someone says this to you - I think its not just about relationships. I think your principles and world view are what she is jealous of. You live your principles, are honest in your opinion and ensure others question their own viewpoint. Yes, it can seem abrasive to the casual observer, (mostly because tone of voice doesn't translate to text well) but issues of class and race should never be sugar coated. I have no idea who she is or what her background is and making assumptions is probably not cool, but can only suggest that maybe her life background when growing up has been a bit more financially comfortable than yours.
I know from watching my own family and their attitudes that sometimes the more 'comfortable' a life is, the happier that person is to pick at someone else, usually by the lowest means possible and that includes questioning someone's morals, particularly when that's the easiest ammunition.

jealous was the first word that popped into my head too. As hanguknamja said... totally off the mark.

Oh, and I forgot to ask - how is unemployment dealt with in S. Korea? How does it compare to the US?

I seem to have acquired modifications with key points in my life - mostly unintentional. The first was getting ears pierced when I was 18. I had wanted to for ages and argued for them with my dad but he was always 'I'll think about it' so i got them done a few weeks after I turned 18 and he didn't speak to me for 3 days (hehe) I have two more on the left side which i did myself with a needle and ice cube during depression and i keep to signify i can get through it if it happens again. I used to have two more in the upper part of that ear but i like to sleep on that side so eventually took them out. I did have a nose piercing but don't have it in much these days, no particular reason. I got that done at a time i was changing study direction and making changes in my life. I have a tattoo on my right hip again at a new phase in my life - a Smaug dragon, but it looks a little bit of a mess now as the tattooist went too deep with the needle.
I do want another tattoo but i've been trying to decide for the last 5 years what i want
