My Current Favorite Songs from S.M Entertainment (January List)


     I know that these aren't the newest songs, but they're the ones I enjoy the most. To be honest, I'm very S.M biased because they're the company that made me like kpop. They're also the company I'd like to audition for in the future if I will ever have the chance!
  • TVXQ- Catch Me
  • Exo- Growl

  • SHINee- Dream Girl


  • Super Junior- Sorry Sorry

  • S.M the Performance- Spectrum 


  • EXO- Peter Pan


  • TVXQ- Ten 
  • BoA- Only One



And many more! *Note, I know there are also other songs from girl groups, but I personally enjoy boy groups more...*

Reaction/Review: S.M the Ballad "A Day Without You" sung by Jonghyun and Chen

     I've decided to write about my each of my reactions/reviews of the SM the Ballad songs, I started off with my post of "Breath." Today, I'll be writing about the song sung by the two beautiful voices of Jonghyun and Chen. It started off quite well, but I personally didn't like it very much, but the nice beat really kept me listening. Jonghyun's voice is amazing though, the way he sings kinda takes me breath away. The part I really enjoyed was the chorus..."I can't believe. Yes, it's true." I find it amazing I've been able to differentiate between both of their voices. As usual, I love songs that have an amazing second part, and this song did. I personally liked the combination of these two voices better than "Breath." I can't wait for the other songs to be released, they're all great so far.

My rating: 9/10

Reaction/Review: SM the Ballad "Breath" Sung by Jonghyun and Taeyeon

     I finally got to listen to this beautiful song, and I have to say, it might not sound as nice as first, but it does  definitely earn a good review. I love the chorus part, especially in the ending part of the song, especially with Taeyeon's beautiful solo part. Jonghyun's voice at the beginning is phenomenal, it made you feel relaxed and the way he sings is beautiful in itself. I think the blend between the two were very good, none really overpowered the other's voice. Their voices complimented each other's very well. Since this is a ballad, and I don't listen to many ballads, I really liked this one. Listening this while doing homework or studying is perfect. I don't really think its exactly a song that I'd be jamming out to a party obviously, it's a ballad. Overall, beautiful song with amazing voices to compliment it.

My rating: 8/10

Happy Birthday...Yunho (U-Know) of TVXQ!

     On February 6, 1986, the wonderful man called U-Know of TVXQ was born. According to some sources, he's 29 in Korean age, but in American age count, I think that'd be twenty-eight. This year, 2014 has been a fantastic year for TVXQ so far. Making the start of the year special and truly something, they uploaded their music video of their song "Something." 
Their song "Something" received three wins on M! Countdown, one win on Music Bank, Show! Music Core, and Inkigayo. Totally six wins with their one song! I hope TVXQ continues to be amazing just as they are, fighting! Happy Birthday Yunho, I hope you had a good day (considering it's probably past his birthday in Korea).
