BoA's Top 15 Korean Songs - #11 - Hurricane Venus



BoA had finally returned to Korea and came out with a great title track in "Hurricane Venus". Admittedly, I only liked the song at first. I think many factors contributed to why the song/concept didn't click with me at first, but over time, the song has steadily climbed up my list of favorite songs from BoA.




A lot of the dance songs BoA had in her 2010 album "Hurricane Venus" sounded like they could have gone to f(x) or SHINee. Not like that was a problem, but it had showed how long BoA had been away and how much K-pop had changed in just five years. "Hurricane Venus" just didn't seem like a BoA song when it came out.

Other problems stemmed from the weird "-ic" words that SM loved to shove into songs even if they didn't make sense, compounded with a weak choreography (for BoA's standards) and awful makeup, which made BoA look ten years older than she was.

However, despite all of the stylistic errors, the song still shines. We're treated to a catchy electronic song with a strong bass, addicting chorus, and some ad-libbing at the end for vocalfags to wank off to. This song is very easy to put on repeat, as the song lacks any boring parts.

And okay, the best reason to like this song:

Pump up the pearly volume - big boobs in k-pop guide part 4

The post that k-pop's tits perverts have waited patiently for all year is finally here, it's the return of the Kpopalypse big boobs guide! Who can possibly keep up with the amount of big boobs in k-pop?  Kpopalypse, that's who!  Read on as Kpopalypse brings you the joys of objectification and superficial fetishism once again! Actually to be completely honest, I have trouble keeping up with new groups much the same as anybody, especially as I don't tend to pay much attention to the individuals in very new groups, so that's where the help of trusty caonimas came in.  I asked readers in a recent survey to nominate entrants for this list, and received several hundred responses which I will now distill in the following post.  Thanks to all those of you who helped me out here - but note that most of you picked girls who had in fact already been covered in previous episodes of this series, so make sure you visit the following links to double-check the trufax ...

Is Girl's Day the only target? + poor styling

Pann : Why are you only criticizing Girl's Day when other female idols did the same thing 1. [+205, -21] Idiot, do you think this and those are the same? At least they're wearing underpants. I asked if Girl's Day was wearing underwear and do you know what the fans said? They said they were wearing thongs ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Thongs and underpants, which ones are worse? And Yoona's exposure was only done once, why bash her? Also, Hayoung wore jean shorts but still wore underpants. AOA also wears underpants. Do you not see how you can see the stage through Yura's shorts? How baggy are they that we can see through them? And they still didn't wear underpants, isn't it obvious? They could've told their CEO that they didn't want to do it. They said they're close to their CEO. They also joke around a lot, yet they can't say they don't like the concept? There were Panns of the CEO taking care of Minah but why is he making them do this? Girl's Day is still do...

[MV Review] AOA - Heart Attack

The pretty girls are AOA! AOA starts off the summer deluge of girl group comebacks, which means that this summer will be pretty fucking awesome. The MV starts out with the AOA girls sans Seolhyun playing a game of lacrosse. Seeing as how bad the girls got raped in the game, I would say that the team they were playing must be playing for Duke . During their pitiful attempt at playing a game, Choa gets knocked down by an opponent. He takes off his helmet and Choa falls for him. Choa definitely wants it up the ass from this guy. However, once the song actually starts, it shows the AOA members and the other lacrosse team in the same classroom. I know Duke has high admission standards, thus the whites and Asians in the classroom, but did they stop affirmative action because I didn't see any other minorities in the classroom. Seolhyun is introduced as the new student, and all of the dudes want to bust a nut on her ass. Later on, Choa writes a letter to do dude she's lusting after, bu...
