BoA's Top 15 Japanese Songs - #10 - Eien


Sometimes it feels like yesterday that "Eien" came out but the song is already seven years old.




What makes "Eien" so good for me is that it's a mid-tempo song with a melancholy sound, but with a beat fast enough to keep me awake. If mid-tempo songs are up your alley, this is easily one of BoA's best mid-tempo songs.

The thing that saddens me about "Eien" is that this was really the last time BoA was relevant in Japan (spring of 2009). This essentially coincided with my waning interest in J-pop. BoA still has released great songs since then, but avex has largely given up on her with the landscape changing in the scene.

Mamamoo Hwasa's sexual performance?

[+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...

Conspiracy on Conspiracy (in) K-Pop 1: Illuminati are everywhere! Part 1

Everyone likes good conspiracy theories. Some like to laugh at them while others take them seriously. To fill this niche in k-pop blogging, I bring you a new series called Conspiracy on Conspiracy (in) K-Pop -- in short, COCK. Let’s start with the well-known organizations: Illuminati, Free Masons and New World Order. Everyone knows at least one theory built around these key words, it is so popular that in Poland there’s even a saying that behind every tragedy/fraud/you name it, there is a “Jewish-Mason-Cyclist Sect”. Apparently in Korea this is also kind of common (it doesn’t surprise me that much since every country with high percentage of Protestants is “obsessed” with it). So how much Illuminati brainwashing is in K-Pop really? Let’s find out! Here are some basic Illuminati symbols: Pyramids: 2NE1 - I Am The Best Triangles: TVXQ - Triangle All-seeing-eye: miss A - Bad Girl Good Girl Checkered patterns: T.O.P - Turn it Up Black&White ( G.NA must be very zealous believer): Super ...
