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.

Sulli vs Hwayoung - it's a difference in determination levels

Inquiring minds wish to know the answer to the following question: It's fine to say that someone is determined or not determined, but how is determination itself determined?  It's a good question, fortunately Kpopalypse is determined to determinate determination levels!  Read on for the trufax! On the surface it's understandable that f(x)'s Sulli and T-ara's Hwayoung may seem similar.  Both girls have a reputation for being kind of lazy, not pulling their weight while on the job and jeopardising their respective groups' careers at one point or another.  But how much of this perception is justified?  Let's take a closer look at the behaviour of both of these idols, so that their determination levels can be properly assessed. DIETING HABITS Everybody knows what Korean idol diets are like - dangerously unhealthy!  Most idol diets consist of food that is high in protein and vitamins but very low in carbohydrates , however carbohydrates are essential ...

Let's Get to Know - CarolinaPanthers2015

You may be asking yourself, who is  CarolinaPanthers2015 ? I'm here to tell you he's one of the greatest minds in K-pop fapping today. A common participant on Reddit's  kpopfap  board; each of his comments is a work of art. Aptly describing the material being posted while at the same time giving a concise description of what he'd like to do. Really, I haven't seen such great "porn" commenting since  ross53545 . CarolinaPanthers2015 was kind enough to answer of a few of my questions: SF: How long have you been into k-pop? CarolinaPanthers2015: Since I have discovered Girls' Generation a few years ago. I simply don't know what exact year I started listening to them right now. SF: Favorite group/ idol? CarolinaPanthers2015: I have countless favorite girl groups and idols, from Hello Venus to G.NA and from BESTie to Lim Kim. SF: How many times do you fap per day? CarolinaPanthers2015: I just jack off to idols whenever I need to. And it doesn't matt...

The real pussy magnet

Who's kpop's biggest playa? This guy. In the past month, kpop has seen more than its typical share of  tits and ass  with Big Bang's white girls in hanboks orgy in  "Bae Bae,"  Hyunseung's breast signature in  "Ma First,"  and Jay Park's two releases that were the musical equivalent of an STD. (Herpes, if you're wondering) Despite all this, the biggest playa* in kpop is not GD, wannabe GD, or Jay Hard. It's Jung Joon Young. To be honest, I wasn't familiar with Jung Joon Young until I recently started watching  "The Lover,"  which is a super enjoyable, low-key kdrama he's in now. I mean, sure, I recall him as the derpy young assistant in Mamamoo's  "Mr. Ambiguous"  video, but I was only watching for the 'Moo, so he and Bumkey could have fucked right out of that MV and I wouldn't have cared. But then, I caught his latest release, and my views on him changed. Boy spends the MV recalling a wild night th...
