why america?

NOBODY english version by WONDER GIRLS



to be honest, it sounds kinda lame. and they could have done another MV for the english version, not dubbing with stupid voices and insert new shots in the old MV. and even with the english version, i still don't know what they're saying if there's no lyrics in front of me.

i don't understand why korean artist berlumba-lumba nak promote themselves in america. they look so desperate to me. it's not like i hate them for doing that, but when they're in US market, they are completely a different person. their music has been americanized. look at what US did to Se7en's "Girls" and Boa's "I Did It For Love". that is soo not korean.

the reason we cheer for korean artist is because of their music, which is unique. and because we're tired with american songs who's been talking about nothing but money, sex and so on.

and i hope JYP will make a new MV for "Tell Me". and WG needs to brush up their voices and accent as well.

WG Fighting!

and oh, some previews for their performance in JoBro's concert. seriously the crowd was so silent. were they dying or what? well, i guess they were trying to figure out what the hell was happening on the stage and who the heck were those bunch of weird-dance-movement-with-accent girls..

I'M JUST SAYING.

  1. You do realize Kpop is influenced by American music right? Even WG's music by JYP who even worked with the American industry.

    Btw, it's NORMAL to adjust another country's music style when entering its market. It's called marketing. Even when Kpop stars, go to Japan they have to change their style a bit.

    You have an ignorant perspective.

  2. u have a point there but this is my own personal opinion. if u disagree with me then it's fine.

    i said so because they're not only promoting themselves but the korean music as well. so why not just stick to their music once in a while, you know, try to make a difference because that's what people love about them. in that way perhaps the american will start to listen to korean's music.

    and i think it's a different case if you want to talk about promoting to japan. because in japan you can't survive unless you speak and sing in japanese. even the english celebrities barely make it there.

    again, that's just my opinion though.

    and perhaps you should at least include your id, because it doesn't seem to fit with your "loud" personality on criticizing people, if you know what i mean.

    thanks for the comment anyway.
