Music Monday: February 2015


Another week of February means another week of new awesome kpop music! Here are a few of our favourite music releases that just came out.

Amber Liu f(x): Shake That Brass
I've always loved f(x)'s music, but felt that it was one of the underrated groups in the Korean entertainment industry. However, Amber's solo debut proves how talented she is. The song "Shake that Bass" is a very upbeat song featuring cameos of fellow kpop idols such as Girls' Generation member Hyoyeon, miss A's Min, GOT7's Jackson, Rainbow's Woori, NU'EST's Aron, C-Clown's Rome, G.O.D.'s Joon Park, SNSD's Taeyeon etc. The song has a very upbeat style with many brass instruments accompanying it. Both Amber's rap and Taeyeon's singing is able to thoroughly capture the listener's attention, the song may even get addicting after a couple listens. Overall, the song was well done, but if I had to say something about it, Taeyeon's "Shake that Brass" sounds more like "Shake that Breast." Lol


Teen Top Niel: Lovekiller
Another talented idol singer debuting as a solo! This song skillfully shows Niel's talent in singing as well as dancing. The dance track is a catchy song that suits Niel’s smooth voice. Popular rapper Dok2 also features on the song with a short part. We like Dok2, but we think the song's good enough that he doesn't need to be featured in it.Other than that, the music video shows a very sexy side of Niel that will make all you fan girls love it.

Lizzy & Park Myung Soo: Goodbye PMS
This song is really funny and cool in my opinion, but honestly, anything with Park Myung Soo is bound to be funny. The music video is also quite cute with Park Myung Soo in his devil costume. It's honestly also one of the songs that I found it to be very relatable since its topic is about premenstrual syndrome aka a girl's period. Like how anyone not relate to it? Overall, its one of these comedy and hilarious songs that are perfect for a CF.


No. Mercy Sub-Unit: Interstellar
With the results of the final members announced, it still makes me sad to see so many of my favourite members already eliminated. However, this song is pretty good, showcasing the three members' hard work. The chorus is also very catching by Hyungwon, showcasing his improvement.

Dr. Frost Drama: Summary/Review


A couple of weeks back, I was trying to search for a new drama to watch. I wanted something like a thriller, and had a lot of suspense in it, rather than the usual romantic comedies that I tend to watch. After some time spent searching, I finally came across a drama called “Dr. Frost.” After reading the plot, I knew that it was a must-watch for me and was exactly what I wanted. However, now that the drama is over, I will share my thoughts along with a brief summary about the drama for those of you who did not watch it and may be interested.

Actors:
Song Chang Eui as Dr. Frost
Jung Eun Chae as Yoon Sung Ah
Sung Ji Ru as Nam Tae Bong
Lee Yoon Ji as Song Sun
Choi Jung Woon as Cheon Sang Won

















Plot:
Baek Nam-Bong, known as Dr.Frost because of his white hair, is a handsome, yet cold professor of psychology by day and a bartender by night. When he was younger, Dr. Frost had gotten into a car accident, causing him to have a frontal lobe injury, leaving him with no emotions. Due to him being already smart, the incident also increased his reasoning levels, making him a genius. When asked by his mentor, Cheon Sang Won to work at the university counseling center, Dr. Frost encounters his old classmate as well as colleauge, Song Sun and meets his teaching assistant, Yoon Sung Ah. Using his high reasoning and detective skills, Dr. Frost assists detective Nam Tae Bong in solving crimes as well as the mysteries to his life and people around him.

Thoughts:
In my opinion, I think that it was a drama that succeed my expectations. Perhaps it is because I had never watched a drama about psychology, it was very interesting to see Dr. Frost analyze different situations and cases depending on the person's expressions and actions. Although, there were some parts where I felt that weren't completely solved such as the part where the criminal came back of jail and the relationship between Song Sun and Dr. Frost, it's mysteries had fit in to make the audience think and let their minds wander into the results and endings.
