Super Junior!

Greetings to all!

For a little over two years now I've been dabbling in listening to music from different countries. And while I love all of the ones I've tried, I've become really, really addicted to Korean Pop.


Super Junior was formed in 2005 and signed to SM Entertainment. The group consistes of Leeteuk, Yesung, Kangin, Shindong, Sungmin, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun. A Subgroup called Super Juior-M includes members Zhou Mi and Henry. One other member of Super Junior, Heechul, is currently inactive, as he has been enlisted into the military.





What I write about today is a group called Super Junior. Their song 'Sexy, Free and Single' really illustrates why I love them so. Damn. Much.


The song is one of the catchiest I've heard in a long time from a South Korean group. Even if you don't understand a lick of Korean, you can still appreciate the talent these guys have with their voices. With a catchy chorus and an awesome beat, the music accompanying their voices is just... Really, I cannot describe.

"Sexy, Free and Single" was debuted on July 1st, 2012, and has since on iTunes managed to rank high ratings in not only South Korea, but Australia, France, and Peru! When the song and video were shown on the South Korean Gaon Chart List, Super Junior sold 335,744 copies in only one month. Also, so eleven consecutive weeks, "Sexy, Free and Single" has been number one on Taiwan's KKBOX Charts, becoming the top South Korean group in Taiwan. The Japanese version os this song? It has sold way over 118,902 units since its release on August 22. It is considered to be 'Gold'.


Super Junior are nominated for "Best Asian Act" in the MTV Europe Music Awards 2012 in Frankfurt, Germany. Making it as their first nomination in any Music Award outside Asia, I'm sure Super Junior and their fans are more than excited. (I know I am!)


If you're interested in other songs by Super Junior, I recommend, 'Mr. Simple', 'BONAMANA', 'Super Girl' and the song Super Junior debuted with back in 2005, 'TWINS (Knock Out)' .


That's it for today! Have a wonderful time experiencing Super Junior. And remember, 'Sexy, Free and Single' is *amazing* (at least, to me..)


Hugs!

I am SO sorry!!

Seriously, my friends, I'm so sorry I haven't updated. I try, I REALLY do. Please don't be mad?
My second semester and summer were crazy busy. From family issues to school issues to everything else, I haven't even had time to send a letter to a teacher I love... ; - ; A- anyway.... I hope to be updating regularly now that I am in a new year (taking a fifth for co-op) with easier courses. Most of the posts now will be mostly focused on "Assassin's Creed" and Korean or Japanese pop. Hopefully I can still make it interesting for everybody following me still!! Hugs! Night Angel.
