I have to admit, I am a sporadic reader of tlnet, so I miss a lot of threads... But it seems I see so many about SNSD or Wonder Girls. I can't say I'm too familiar with Korean music (more into Japanese myself), but where's the love for OTHER Korean music artists?
And before I go any further, don't jump down my throat for bashing SNSD, because I'm not. I've heard a couple songs, and I admit the girls are cute and the songs are catchy...
But I mean, c'mon! Look at BoA. She's hot, she can sing, and she's can fawkin' dance. She's been named the most influential asian artist. Heck, the SC map Azalea was named after one of her songs! I don't know, I've been really into her music lately. She makes meh wet.
I was wondering if there are any other BoA fans out there in tl?
yep BoA is definitely better. I really do like her singing, dancing and looks.
However her recent releases (English) isnt really that great. Her english accent is annoying as hell. Her MV is wtf. I actually feel relief listening Utada's english songs right after BoA.
Honestly I don't think she's hot, and I also don't think any members of SNSD are hot. SNSD's music is horrible, but lately I've realized that BoA is actually pretty good. I haven't listened to any of her music since Atlantis Princess, but anything up to that has been pretty good for Kpop.
I like BoA, but I prefer Hyori for some reason. Which Japanese artists do you like? I'm a fan of Salyu, Yui, some visual Kei groups and former visual Kei like Gackt. I also like me some trashy euro-beat style pop such as Attack All Around.
She really needs to stick to Asia and not try the US market. I just don't think her style translates, and with a slight accent, it makes it kinda unbearable.
