Girls' Generation's nickname to non-fans is Female Super Junior, for your information. As they wrapped up their Gee promotions, Suju returned with the insanely catchy Sorry Sorry. So I thought maybe Girls' Generation and Super Junior should start to dress alike. Look what I found for Super Junior!

Mens' Skates!!!! Cool, eh? You guys can paint/colour it blue since E.L.F.s use blue balloons. :D

While I was watching this part of the movie, I thought to myself that maybe kPop should try to branch out to making Bollywood films.

You see in huge groups like Super Junior (13 members) and SNSD (9 members), only a handfuls can sing. The rest of them can just be the background singers or dancers. It aint that bad right? 

P.S. I really hope Super Junior makes a comeback soon. I dont wanna listen to their singing but I wanna catch them on variety shows. They're the best korean jokers around. May, okay? My break is in May.

Junsu became THE favourite member because of his involvment in Anyband. Whenever I think of how disgusting he looks with his nipples exposure and ah beng haircut right now, I will just have to watch an Anyband performance or listen to TPL [Talk Play Love] to remind myself why I really became a fangirl. Dongbang is an idol group in the eyes of the Koreans and the Koreans Media unfortunately. Their singing abilities are often overshadowed by their somewhat good looks. However, when Anyband debut as a one-time band, Junsu for once could abandon his boyband/idol image and sing like a real singer. Most importantly, the press reaction towards Anyband was not only positive but reviews garned were all about the music and the inspiration they got from their music and performances.

*edited: I just found out that Junsu is the leader of Anyband. Aish! I'm an elated fangirl.


Kim Junsu is simply born to sing. I have no idea how can someone sing like he does. Asians dont normally sing like this way, especially for pop singers. When he sings, he becomes a wonder. The amount of concentration and power he puts in just makes me so jealous. I want to sing like him too!!! Aish! Apparently, this fellow is in-charge of being charismistic and sexy in the group. HAHAHA. What can I say? He's definitely not! However, when he sings, he does command quite a substantial amount of attention.

Even as a fan, I have to admit that their songs dont really showcase their singing abilities, which is pretty upsetting. Anyhow, once in a blue moon, you hear song like Timeless, and you will definitely be convinced that Junsu-sshi is a true blue singer. As much as I dont like the chinese sounding arrangements, I love how he goes over the top with this voice. Listen to the acoustic version.

Singing is the one thing he does best but this little boy wants to rap too. Occasionally, you will hear him rapping behind the scenes while the rappers of the groups are shooting their rap scenes. Junsu-sshi, how to rap with your high pitch voice? HAHAHAHA.



Besides his vocal capabilities, his composition and lyrics are pretty decent too. Although they are not title single quality yet, they are still good enough for release. This little boy knows himself really well, he knows what kinda song best captures his uniqueness. Like Rainy Night, his first Japanese solo track which he composed, suited his high pitch husky voice perfectly well. Smart move! If I'm not wrong, all the members performed a solo track on Premium Live, which is also their first solo stage in Japan, and Junsu sang this. Ask any one who has watched the mini concert, they will all tell you the same thing. "Junsu's song was the best!" Even my sister, a Micky fan, agrees.

He composed and wrote lyrics for a dance track which I personally have mixed feelings about. Yeah, I dont like dance, so most likely I wont like the song even after hearing it. His performance is just too "sexy" for me, I reckon. The outfit and dance simply dont match. I secretly think that this one is for the gays, like real gays.

I wiki-eed him and one of his hobbies is to write poetry. Hmmmm... I dont believe that but I think this boy loves to write. Keep writing, yeah? One day, one fine day, you can be the lyricist of all Dongbang songs. Hwaiting!



When it comes to Junsu, I definitely have to got to share on his personality. He's just too cute! Sometimes, I just wanna pack him in my pocket, like polly pocket you know. Heehee. According to all the members, he hasnt changed a thing since stardom. His innocence remains untouched and his passion for singing will never die, just these 2 points make me very touched.

When I first heard about his difficulty as a trainee, I was a little overwhelmed with emotions. His positivity is really one thing I respect most. Not only does Changmin wants to learn from him, I do too.

Due to his innocence, he is always the butt of all jokes. His members enjoy bullying him every time and any time. Not only his members but others, like Super Junior members. Heehee. His reaction? HAHAHA. He just takes it in his stride. Never the less, the members really love him. Oh wait, even kids belittle this BIG brother. Orange Junsu? Classic!


Seems like this little boy has few friends in the industry, his most famous one has to be Super Junior, Eunhyuk. Eunhyuk (real name: Hyukjae) and Junsu have been friends since school days. I love the simplefriendship they have got. It is simply based on trust and never ending understanding. Obviously, with one in Japan(Junsu, that is) and the other in Korea most of the time, meet-ups are nearly impossible but yet these 2 are still so darn close whenever they come together to play and fool around like kindergarten kids. It's all about the foundation of their friendship. No matter how much they proclaim on nation tv or radio that they detest each other, every one knows well enough that these 2 morons are closer to each other than any other friends they have. Them teasing each other endlessly is just too sweet for words.

From them, I really learnt a lot. I really hate to admit it but Junsu is someone I've so much to learn from, even how he treats his friends. HAHAHA!

*edited

Because for him second to music is sports, particularly soccer, I just cannot help but to make him my favourite member. He thinks about football all the time. HAHAHA. Well, I guess he's really good at sports. All brawns! I think his competitive traits play a huge part in his sports interest.


The thing I really really hate about him is his bloody dress sense. For heaven's sake, please learn a little from Micky. Go buy vogue! Go read fashion blogs! Go murder your stylist! HAHAHHA.

Well, once in a long long time, Junsu looks good too. And when he does, I feel happy. Wear spectacles okay? I dont care if you had lasik or some crap. Just wear specs. No more long hair! No more funny jeans!

We Got Married 우리 결혼했어요

This show is the most watched variety show for me. It's partly because I found a website which allows me to download most of the episodes in HQ!. As you can tell from the title, celebrities appearing on this programme are paired into couples and they come together every fortnightly for the shooting. Basically, these celebrities will depict the lives of various married couples. Each couple has a different "theme", such as Noona-Dongsaeng, Witch-Rapper.

Why do I love watching this? HAHAHA. It's mainly because of one couple which is so so truthful on television, I'm talking about Crown J & Seo In Young, dubbed as Ant/A! couple, better known as the Witch-Rapper couple to me. Both of them are trying all means and ways to tame/conquer each other. Watching them battle it out on national tv brings so much laughter. These two scheming fools are so adorable. Another couple to look out for is none other than the Noona-Dongsaeng couple named dubbed as JoongBo/Lettuce couple which consists of Kim Hyun Joong & Hwangbo. Yeah the old woman-young boy relationship is so cute. Kim Hyun Joong also known as KimDongCow, gives the best comments on earth. They are all so ridiculous and real! Whatever that goes through his brains is just masterpieces one after the other. HAHAHA. Just like ME!!!!

You may ask how does this variety show come to an end, well I dont know. Maybe when all the couples decided to divorce like one did or when the ratings drop to bottom low.

X-Man X맨

How should I start this? HAHAHA! Well, this variety show was the sole reason why I started to like Dong Bang and korean variety shows. In fact, this was the first korean thing that didnt put me off. I hated korean dramas and movies previously. Trust me, you dont have to be a fan of Dong Bang to watch the very first episode I watched, which was a Dong Bang special. I remember watching this with my sister on a weekend and laughing non-stop every 1.5 minutes. There were countless times when we laughed so much that we were rolling all over the floor. It is the kinda humour that I love when it comes to watching variety programmes.


Unfortunately, there arent many english subbed videos on youtube so I only watched about 5 episodes of this to-die-for show! Pity, huge pity! Oh wait, I have to share on my favourite segment of the show, "Dangyunhaji" (Of Course, a game in which one side forced the other to agree with whatever they said).

I really got to thank granny for introducing this to me. This show changed my life quite a fair bit.

Star Golden Bell 스타골든벨



Second korean variety show I watched. The first episode I watched featured Lipstick Boy when he was still in a boyband/duo(?) and boy was it funny. The only part which was subbed was the English segment so I dont really know how the rest of the programme goes. Do I need to go further about Koreans speaking English or rather Konglish? One thing I really like about the show is the outfit the guests has to wear. Yeah, it's my favourite outfit, School Uniform. :) :) :)

I stopped watching the show for the longest time because I couldnt find english subbed videos on youtube. So far, I've only watched 2 episodes, the latest was one with Girls' Generation and SS501 but it wasnt them who stole the show, it was the residents of the show. I just adore Shin Young so much for her bubbly character. Why are fat people always so cheerful and bubbly?

P.S. I heard that Hongki and friends were on the show recently, so I'm crossing my fingers for subbed videos soon.

Family Outing 패밀리가 떴다


This one is my favourite right now. I've only watched two episodes which had the same set of guests so you may think it's too soon to be sure, but I tell you I am damn certain. This show is pretty simple, a family of 7 goes out on a 2days 1 night trip with 2 guests every fortnight with new destination and missions every time. Sounds boring? Not when you know what the family is made up of. Go read up more yourself. Need recommendations? Okay okay. I watched the Episode 13 and 14 which had Taeyeon and Hongki as guests and right now I am waiting for the Uknow and Junsu episodes to be subbed.

P.S. If time and internet connection speed permit, do download the videos to watch in HQ!

Explorers of the Human Body 인체탐험대; 人體探險隊

Another variety show by Super Junior but this is my first and only one so far. I love watching them on variety shows because they are the best 13-piece gag group. Members to look out for are Heechul, Kangin and Eunhyuk. I have to be truthful once more. Actually....actually, I'm only at episode 8 now. I'm really slow when it comes to this because I watch them on my ipod and the subtitles are so small for some episodes that I cant read much when I am on my bus rides as there are one thousand and one humps on the road with one hundred and one people giving their shot at getting knock down when jaywalking. So I only watch this on my lazy Sunday mornings when I have no Lost or Grey's Anatomy to watch, which is NOW!


Super Junior is one of the top idol groups in Korea and Asia right now, I'm sure that you guys might have heard of them. Having 13 people in a bloody singing group is like having a circus of monkeys, I strongly agree to that point but now no one is asking you to watch/hear them sing, I am asking you to watch them fool around and teach you more about your bodies through hilarious but pretty decent experiments. Come on, give it a try, dont be biased.

Happy Together 해피투게더

I'm lazy to introduce this show because whatever I'm gonna type is not going to beat watching the show. If you've watched XMan and loved it then you will love this even more. The only one episode I watched has DongBang as guest so I cant say for the rest. And no, the episode is not just for fans, in fact, people who dont know DongBang shouldnt watch it because they are at their dorkiest and ugliest in the show. And yes, I found a picture to prove my point. Do prepare yourself for it.



Micky!!! Why Micky???

Kim Jung Eun Chocolate


Hmmm.... I dont know how to explain this show. It's like a talkshow cum music show cum newly-wed show. Aish! Just watch these few I picked. out.

Band of Brothers

"IT IS A MUST WATCH," was what I told myself when I first found out about it but after watching the first episode without subtitles this morning, I'm disappointed. Heechul and Kangin are obviously not the best singers outta Super Junior let alone being good at singing but I had my expectations especially since these 2 never fails to tickle me. Aish! I'm just hoping that it's the lack of subtitles.


The disappointment aside, Heechul , the drummer, has always came across as a motherfucking rockstar to me, so I really love what he is doing on the show. In case, you're thinking or concluded that they are just posing with the musical instruments, you are wrong! Heechul can play the drums and so can the rest of the bandmates play whatever they are holding/hugging. The other 2 not so known guys are in a Korean rock band named The Trax for your information. I'm gonna check them up real soon so should you.


I think the content of the show can easily be guessed just through the pictures. Nope, they are not playing The Beatles but they are gonna re-live the moments of various Rock 'n' Roll stars' lives throughout the season. Episode 1 was dedicated to The Beatles and I dont think there is a need to argue why. Overall, I need the band needs more rehearsals/practices to polish their acts and performances. If they are gonna cover hits from some of the biggest names in Rock 'n' Roll, they cant be playing with so little passion and sincerity.

1. I dont care how much grammar/spelling mistakes you can find in this entry, it is just way to long and time consuming for me to read through it after typing it.
2. Links to the official websites and english subbed videos (mostly HQ) can be found all over the entry with at least one to each programme. Dont miss out anything.
3. It took me quite a while to prepare for this entry so be grateful and nice if you have nothing constructive or pleasing to say.
4. The one question on every reader's mind after reading/scanning through this entry is.....
I'll just give the answer. "I watched 3/4 of them in my office."
