BoA's Top 15 Korean Songs - #14 - Adrenaline


BoA has finally returned to Korea after five years of exclusively promoting, and she chose a great time to make a comeback in Korea. K-pop was taking off at the same time J-pop was sliding.



There are many tracks off of "Hurricane Venus" that are really good, and it was hard to select which tracks from this album would end up making the top 15 list. "Adrenaline" was easily going to make the list, but the question was where at.

True to its name, "Adrenaline" is a pure three minutes of straight up adrenaline. There is not one boring point in this song, and the compressed time of three minutes really helps out. (At this point in time in 2010, I was so used to BoA's five minute long Japanese songs.) I love the electronic beat with the bumping base. The verses are good, but the chorus takes it to the next gear.

"Adrenaline" was one of the songs that made me one of the few fans who enjoy BoA's Korean songs more than her Japanese ones. Since 2010, I have enjoyed BoA's Korean releases more than her Japanese releases, and "Adrenaline" is just one of the reasons.

Mamamoo Hwasa's sexual performance?

Pann : Mamamoo Hwasa, isn't this too much? 1. [+140, -5] It looks more sexual because she has a good body. It was Mamamoo's concert and it was +15. 2. [+95, -15] This is why they say women's enemy is women. You call it sexy when male idols rip their clothes off and do pelvic dances but it's a problem when a female idol does it? It only looks sexy and pretty. 3. [+85, -1] It would be considered too much if this was done on broadcast but it was a +15 concert. It's fine. 4. [+35, -0] It's still better than female idols' lolita appeal nowadays 5. [+26, -0] It looks more like that because the dress color is nude. And like in foreign countries, adult sexiness is better than short school uniforms and lolita. 6. [+23, -0] You never bought an album and yet you're complaining about this and that 7. [+22, -1] It's a concert anyways. Other male idols wear more sexual clothes. 8. [+21, -26] It looks a bit off...

Rain recounts a story of when Park Jin Young went above and beyond for him

Article : Rain expresses gratitude towards Park Jin Young for dropping everything to be there for his mother "It's thanks to hyung that my mother got to live a few more weeks" Source : Insight via Instagram "When I was around 17-18 years old, my mother fell sick and I couldn't take her to the hospital because I didn't have any money. I asked several places for help but no one could offer it. I then asked Jin Young hyung, 'Hyung, please save us. I don't have any money to hospitalize my mother.' Jin Young hyung then canceled all of his schedules and came to my home. He put my mother on his back, got her a car, and took us to the hospital. He co-signed for us and got us in. It was thanks to him that I got to be with my mother for another two weeks." 1. [+528] Even when he's as rich enough to have 45 billion won now... I'm sure the 2-3 weeks he got to spend with his mother were more meaningful than anything else. And no wonder he feels so...

2017 starts off to another girl group rush with new debuts and comebacks

Article: 2017 starts off to another girl group rush Source: TV Report via Naver 1. [+208, -5] For how much name value AOA has, their digital rank has been lost in Andromeda..... not even comparable to Cosmic Girls or April anymore because I don't even see them on the Melon charts. What happened? Did AOA's fandom just die out? 2. [+130, -10] A battle of the minor groups, basically... 3. [+191, -31] Twice (nation's girl group, energetic, cute) Girlfriend (innocent) IOI (nation's producer) Red Velvet (quirky?) Black Pink (hip hop) Mamamoo (talent)... all of the current girl groups have different charms and styles with set fandoms so there really isn't any more room for other groups or fandoms 4. [+106, -10] Every new debut recently has been flop after flop... 5. [+120, -27] AOA, Cosmic Girls, and April all flopped ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 6. [+52, -5] Out of all those groups, AOA had the most media play and their one song already fell off the charts~ 7. [+51, -7] At the top are Twice, ...
