Kim Bum Soo - Smoke or Drink (김범수 - 피우든 마시든)

Kim Bum Soo. Awesome vocalist, gifted voice, not so much on the face(according to the media). This song was presented to the public through a show called The Voice (korean version of course) and somebody sang it.

This is part of an album called Solista part 1. I never knew about it because I only have part 2 which has the song "Final Love (끝사랑)'.

The song is about a woman that lies about her drinking and smoking problem, and the man knows about it. The man is saying he would just break up and find another woman.

Jung Yeop - I want to kiss you (정엽 - 입맞추고 싶어요)

Jung Yeop, a member of Brown Eyed Soul, who is also the one that makes most TV appearances compared to other members. He is very well known for his love song, Nothing Better, his style of singing and habits. This song was an OST for the drama called The Romance I believe and recently this resurfaced to younger audience when it was played in the show called "The Romantic & Idol." It was great to see such an awesome song resurface with the help of idol.

Riddim - Cheer up

Hello people, this is the song I found out through 4 hours of reading webtoon in korean website called "orange marmalade" and "song of the cloud". They both have element of music and this band called riddim's song was used as sound track for some of the episode. This particular song doesn't have happiest melody but I love the beginning.

Unfortunately youtube does not have the best quality of their songs, but I was fortunate enough to find what I was interested. AND this is the super indie band which suits the "theme" that I'm supposed to have. but meh screw the theme, just enjoy the music.

Hot potato - Pillow (뜨거운 감자 - 팔베게)

Kim C, the vocal you see in the music video, has been absent for couple of years I believe, after leaving 1 night 2 days. He recently came back on couple of TV shows and I knew he had a new album, but didn't know what it was. Luckily I was able to find this song and the song is awesome. The music video is so simple yet has such a deep meaning in my opinion.

Primary - Johnny (프라이머리 - 자니)

The title could be called "You sleeping", but the title says Johnny so I'll just call it that. The Korean pronunciation is like Johnny. I have played several songs from his album in my show and his songs are awesome as always. How can you not love this soothing and lovely music.

Lena Park - That Fool (박정현 - 그바보)

Hello people. For those of you do not know, I love watching K-Drama, no matter how old it is, if it has good story with good actors I'll watch it. Since it is a winter break, I have decided complete another drama. Rewatching of course. Drama is called Just Looking (그저 바라보다가) with Kim Ah-Joong and Hwang Jung-Min. It was abbreviated to call 그바보 which can be seen as That Fool.

The story is about a man who is so nice, he agrees to do a fake marriage with a top star to avoid scandals with a politician's son. It leads to top star falling in love for his pureness and niceness which leads to stories and such. Lovely story of course. This song is the sound track in the drama and I just wanted to share it with you.

Vanilla Lucy - Flying Girls (바닐라 루시 - 비행소녀)

Vanilla Lucy has a very unique composition compared to other bands in Korea. As you can see in the video they have instruments that I do not know the exact name of which still sounds awesome. However, to the public, only the face of the vocal is well known through a show called "Men's pride" (남자의 자격). A lot of people were impressed by her voice and skill, but unfortunately that did not lead to such a big success for the group itself. Nonetheless beautiful music and beautiful group.

I am currently going through the sources to explore non-title music and I will get back to you once I discover new fantastic ones. Until then, be sad and merge into his deep sadness.

JungTuk and the guys - Marius is my black friend (정턱과 쾌남들)

One of the biggest discovery of this Superstar K season was JungTuk. As you can see in the video, they are bit like UV with very realistic lyrics and comedic music video. They used to be duo hiphop group, but for the show they recruited Shin So Hee (previously introduced I believe) as Alice for vocal. They have made the qualifiers, but they weren't able to make it to TOP10 or 11. They continuously gave positive energy in the show and people were able to laugh at their characters.

This song is not only addicting but holds very important message about racism.

Crying Nut - Horse Running (크라잉 넛 - 말달리자)

Crying Nut is one of the leading Korean punk band who started from underground. They are known as a rival with NoBrain because they are both male bands and play energetic music which everyone can easily follow. This is probably the most famous song from them and the point of this song is shouting "Shut UP" repeatedly at the beginning of the song. You want energetic music? Look for these guys. I can't believe this was released in the 90s. so goooooood.

Park Hyo Shin - Fool (박효신 - 바보)

This song is my new "play it million times a day" song. Park Hyo Shin is currently through a crisis and I thought maybe I should just look into his songs once more and appreciate his greatness. He recently finished his army time and came back with a new song. He had contract problems so we don't know how he will be doing in the future, but hopefully everything will work and we can listen to his great songs and voice forever.

Wanted - Like you feat. IU (원티드)

Wanted is a group that came out around 2003/2004. They were male trio that had dominant voices and soul, but unfortunately due to an accident which killed one of the member, there was a halt to the group. They came back with this album and thanks to an anonymous comment, I was able to find it. I only know Ha Dong Kyun from the group, because he had successful solo artist career with "Butterfly" and "Please Love Her". 

Through some research I found out that they used to be part of a group called 7Days, which had Lee Jung as well. Since Lee Jung became a solo artist, they produced this group called Wanted.

They have released an album together with Lee Jung and they have some amazing songs in there, but unfortunately I haven't seen them together ever since.

Lim Jung Hee - Tears didn't come out (눈물이 안났어)

Lim Jung Hee started out from JYP entertainment. She would sing on the street to showoff her skill. Her debut song, music is my life, was strong and awesome and still regarded as one of the high-skilled song for a vocalist. Only problem, she didn't make a lot of TV appearances to grow her fan base outside her music, which isn't really a bad thing from an artist point of view. She tried to go abroad with JYP, but I'm not sure how that went at all. She is currently singing a lot of OST for dramas.

This song was sang by Michelle Lee from KPOP Star (audition program) and that is where I found it.
