BoA's Top 15 Korean Songs - #12 - The Shadow



If "Moto" was showcasing BoA's abs, "The Shadow" is all about BoA's cleavage, and if that isn't enough reason to watch one of BoA's MVs, well, it sucks to be you.




I love the MV for this song, and BoA's brother has always done a great job with the MVs since BoA came back to Korea. The MV starts out with BoA in the white dress looking like a queen. The tree above the clouds represents the fact that no one is within BoA's league. Then the rest of the MV showcases BoA dancing among mortals while showing off how hot she is. Maybe the songs true meaning is that everyone else will be stuck in BoA's shadow. Yeah, I understand the lyrics, but if other K-pop fans are allowed to make shit up about MVs and songs, so can I!

"The Shadow" definitely reminds me of her older songs with a more modern sound. The beat isn't that fast for a pop song, sounding like it could be a mid-tempo song by today's standards. What helps this song is the strong bass line, otherwise this song could have been pretty forgettable. The rest of the instrumental is drowned out by the bass. However, the bass helps keep the verses entertaining enough to listen to until we get to the chorus, which is pretty good.

Overall, "The Shadow" is a very good song, and it was a great idea for BoA to promote it along with "Only One," as the songs have contrasting styles.

Which female idol would make the best porn star?

It's no mystery that female K-pop idols are pretty fucking hot. But would being hot be enough for them to make it big in the porn industry (which probably won't happen anytime soon)? Well, obviously not, because if it were, I could just put in the names of all the members of every single girl group out there (with a few exceptions) and call it a day. But being a porn star takes much more than just looks and body, and you shall see how through this article. So here are the nominees, handpicked personally by me, in no particular order. (P.S. This is gonna be photo and gif heavy). (P.P.S., If you managed to get through this whole article without fapping once, you get a cookie.)                                            4MINUTE - HyunA Oh look, Hyuna's here! Shocker! Well, Hyuna's known to be the 'seductress' or whatever, but I won't disagree. This woman would make a straight gir...

Male idol who has been consistently asked whether if he's Japanese

 Stray Kids' Lee Know People have been consistently mistake him for being Japanese since his debut (Honestly, when I first saw him I was like, 'Is he Japanese...?') So, I'm writing this post to clear out those misunderstandings He's from Daegot-myeon, Gimpo His real name is Lee Minho He has been popular for looking similar to Kento Yamazaki ever since he first debuted This is a morph-picture that an International fan made, they really do look similar.. No, scratch it, they look literally the same in those pictures He has the vibe of actors you usually see in Japanese drama These are the gifs of him with short-dark hair that made his fans call him Lee Know Yamazaki And you may mistake him as Japanese because of his stage name, Lee Know But it's derived from his real name. The name Lee Know has nothing to do with Japan^^ And take a look at his environment His house in his hometown is very Korean He raises three Korean Shorthair cats How should I put this post to a...
