K-pop, views of a rather selfish fan on how and why it is being ass-raped


we all know how kpop started to rise here in ph. to briefly state its history, we can say it started with some people(who IMO, are fans of the HeroSan tandem from way back when, and yes jellah, isa k jan...) discovered that Sandara Park became a member of a hiphop girl group in Korea called 2ne1...then came WG's Nobody which became a big hit, and SuJu's Sorry Sorry...a lot of firsts happened and 4minute brought the first well-promoted kpop promo tour, Suju became the first kpop group to have a gold record in ph, filipino kpop FCs had more members than ever and Steven gave birth to the GCBoards kpop thread(LOL...hi people!, sana mabasa niu 2)...

something before i start...i actually wanted to write this about a few months ago but i didn't because of 20% priorities and 80% pure laziness...that was when i first saw Tell me Your Wish on myx...i decided to really write it now when one of my wishes failed to come true, i wished that T-ara would never be introduced to the madlang people and if ever they come to Ph, only true blue kpop fans would know...then i heard BoPeepBoPeep on the radio and on myx...now im problematic since BoPeep may bring about a new Nobody due to the simple, but catchy, lyrics and dance moves which resemble Nobody a lot in catchiness and overall appeal to non-fans IMO(or i may just be TOO paranoid, but this paranoia has a reason)...

so why do i think that Kpop is being ass-raped here in the Philippines? first of all, the advent of what i openly call RIP-OFFS...by rip-offs, i mean too much copying that it turns out badly...before i start, i would like to say that some of the members of these groups are actually talented and good-looking and im not an anti of these groups, i just think what they are doing does not do justice to kpop itself...despite that, i applaud them for not following the revival trend of opm artists nowadays (kiss, kick and kiss FTW!)...singing a song with a filipino verse and english chorus is ugly if you make it sound too much like kpop...changing the last notes of Sorry's intro is ugly if you make it sound too much like kpop...having golden hair like G-Dragon and sampling a song from BB's japanese album is ugly, though im a fan of the man who did that...those artists could have used their talents to write a more original song and brought back the glory OPM had, but instead they went with the flow and chose to rip kpop off...poor things...(i wont post vids of these so-called rip-offs, just search the term ppop in youtube..i might burn if i see their faces)

next are things like this...

i never really watched that video but the comments say what it contains...according to people who commented, it contains pure CRAP...according to someone from the GC Kpop thread, if he were to make a ten commandments, dancing like that would be a sin...

to compare watch this...

it looks kinda crappy right? but look at the comments...san mas natuwa ang kpop fans? s lola ko db?(that sounds funny) and ELFs even enjoyed it...why? because parodies are the best form of flattery, not total imitation which leads to a fail...

so why is it that kpop is being assraped?

if you haven't been watching tv for the past years, then you might not know that the trend in media these days is going with the flow...what's famous in other countries should have a philippine version...this mentality of media giants led to the destruction of originality in philippine tv...and it got worse when kpop rose to fame...when these media giants will stop thinking like this is a mystery, thus, this lack of originality will last indefinitely...

why do you think they are doing this? i cant say that it's all for the money, though it mostly is...i think it's just like those Fail threads you see in online forums...that first video i linked, that can be branded as an EPIC FAIL to netizens...and what do they do to kill these fail threads? they close them down, stop the thread starter and those who may enter it from commenting, letting the fail die on its own...

that's what these media giants should do, stop it...i dont know if they do not know that videos are meant to be commented on on youtube or they really are dumb, but they cant see that what they are doing is pissing off a whole community...i have never heard of any SONE who was delighted at that first video and all other imitations that they did...

so, until the giants realize their fails, kpoppers like me will have to medicate ourselves with watching the real deals on our media players, the eyedrop that soothes our sore eyes from all the bullshit they are doing...and knowing media giants, this battle with crap will last long...

but there is a bigger enemy people, and it sounds like an animal (clue: a beaver)...

ADDITIONAL:

i know a giant who understands the hearts of people...they promoted kpop and even pinoy artists evenly...they even collaborated with FCs to bring to the kpop community what we thought were dreams...they hear us out...

just another minor post after some songs got me emo...

i'd love it if you listen to the song, if you dont like the person in the vid, well, just listen and dont watch (but personally, i LOVE that girl in the video)



"our last kiss
tasted like tobacco
a bitter and sad smell

tomorrow, at this time
where will you be?
who will you be thinking about?

you are always gonna be my love
even if I fall in love with someone once again
I'll remember to love
you taught me how
you are always gonna be the one
it's still a sad song
until I can sing a new song

the paused time is
about to start moving
there's many things that I don't want to forget about

tomorrow, at this time
I will probably be crying
I will probably be thinking about you

you will always be inside my heart
you will always have your own place
I hope that I have a place in your heart too
now and forever you are still the one
it's still a sad song
until I can sing a new song

you are always gonna be my love
even if I fall in love with someone once again
I'll remember to love
you taught me how
you are always gonna be the one
it's still a sad song
until I can sing a new song"

so why did i just post something like this for my comeback? i really dont know, but there' something about the song that....hmmm...connects with me...

i dont know if i am yet to get over my first love...but heck, for me, every new love is a "first love"...

i got to go, two more hours before the start of my first class of the second semester, wish me luck...

just an added info, the chorus seems to be the same as a song from a filipino artist...just guess who (i personally hate that song)

i dont own the video nor the translation...

even the rain cant put me out!!!

i needed an output for this overflow of random thoughts coming into my head lately...
it was then that i remembered that this blog of mine existed...

first of all, activism has been on my mind lately...at first it didn't bother me, but after learning all that this wretched government has done to the country, things i never imagined were true, i really feel that i have an inner activist that wants to go out into the world. privatization of the land where my beloved state university stands, that freakin con-ass that i just understood lately (i knew about it, but i never really bothered to study it until now), and other things i read about while roaming UPD, they all seem so wrong to me..shucks i'll stop with this for now...

haist, nagiging emo n nmn mood ko, para matigil ang kaemohan...


ipapakita ko sa inyo kung ano ang itsura ng mga bontakun at kung gaano cla kacute lalo n pag nangraratrat gamit ang machine gun, ang inspirasyon ng screen name kong T.G. Pontakun (naging "p" kc akala ko bilog at hindi quotation marks ung nasa hiragana nung bontakun, it matters)





o db? ang cute no? and that's how i came to be..joke!!!

e2 p..video ng bontakun!!! e2 ung napanood ko kaya lalo kong inidolo c bontakun!!! wahehe!!

the weirdest feeling from the weirdest name (my first week)

tagal ko ng di nagbablog aa..masubukan nga ulet...haiszt

first week ko s college? lupet dudes! kakaiba...

1st day, 1st subject, walking for fitness...sbi ng form5 ko s track oval daw...after 30 minutes ng paghahanap s oval, dadating k dun ng basang-basa dahil tanga ka at wala kang payong...ganda ng feeling no? mas gaganda p ean pag nalaman mo n s new gym pla ung klase nio...ganda ng feeling no? /sarcasm

pero dahil dun, nalaman kong pinagpapala ang mga naaapi...kung bakit ko nasabi ito ay sikret n lng...malalaman mo rin s mga susunod n buwan...

hainaku...dahil s 1st week, nalaman ko n ang importansya ng pakikimingle...ayoko maulet ung nangyare nung hayskul na nagpakaloner ako...nagmukha 2loy akong unapproachable..at according kei angelo, nagmukhang siga na nambubugbog at mabilis makikick-out...wahaha!!

anyway, masaya pla talaga ung feeling ng nkatambay k lng...wala kang ginagawa pero hindi k tinatamad...nkakapag-icp k...nkakapagbasa k ng libro...naiicp mo ung lesson niu s math17...iba ang feeling...hindi n ko confined s iisang lugar lng...nkakalibot n ko...parang nkamit ko n ung kalayaan n hinahanap ko cmula nung ipinanganak ako...haiszt...

pero dami ring nawala s buhay ko...walang pakikibarkada dahil wala nmn akong block...bawas ang dota dahil wala nmng kalaro...bawas ang paggigitara dahil ndi ko nmn pwedeng dalhin s skul un gitara ko...sarap p nmn sanang mangharana tuwing tuesday at thursday...ehem!

aun hirap talaga mag-icp ng isusulat pag cnisigawan k n ng "PATAYIN MO N EAN!!! ALAS_ONSE N!!!!

Im back! (views about thing we see on television)

"summertime, summertime"

grabe...tagal ko n rn plang hindi naglalabas ng saloobin gamit ang blog aa...daming topic n ndi ko naiblog...haiszt!!

ang hirap pla pag summer before college tpus wala kang pera...gusto mong lasapin lahat ng alam mong mamimiss mo pag ndi nasa kolehiyo k n pero hindi mo magawa...

gusto ko magdota- "ay, wala akong pera"
gusto ko mag-mall- "ay, wala akong pera"
gusto ko magtxt-"ay, wala akong load"

grabe talaga...ngayon alam ko n kahalagahan ng pag-iipon ng baon...

anyway, ngaung summer mei isa pang nkaiinis n bagay ngaung summer...
pag nanuod k ng tv, ang mga sumusunod ang karaniwang makikita mo...

  • mukha ni pacquiao (maayos)
  • mukha ni pacquiao (ngarag ng suntok)
  • mukha ng kalaban ni pacquaio (mas ngarag, para maipakita ang dominance ni pacquiao)
  • mukha ni ted failon
  • bangkay ng asawa ni ted failon
  • mga pulis n galit kay ted failon
  • kaplastikan ni mar roxas
  • kalokohan ng gobyerno
  • mga taong walang ginagawa para umunlad kaya't sinisisi ang gobyerno
  • mga baklang "nagpapatawa" sa pamamagitan ng panlalait sa iba
  • mga nkaluwang boobs ng mga babaeng nagpapaseksi n lng para pag-usapan ng madla
  • mukha mg mga artistang ndi nmn marunong umarte pero sobrang sikat dahil gwapo o maganda o kaya'y malaki ang boobs
  • video ng kantang "love story" ni taylor swift
  • mga nilalang ng karagatan n nagsasalitang parang tao
  • mga game show na kinuha ang concept mula sa mga banyaga
  • mga walang kamatayng asianovelas o kaya'y mga pinoy versions nito

anung pahiwatig ng mga ito tungkol s patutunguhan ng bansa ntin?

  • magnanumber one c ted failon kung sakaling tatakbo xa bilang senador s 2010 election
  • may isanlibo o mahigit pang magpapauto sa komersyal ni mar roxas at iboboto xa sa eleksyon. dadami pa ang mga gago kung magpapakasal sila ni korina sa february.
  • hindi p rin matitigil ang sisihan sa pagitan ng masa at ng gobyerno. matitigil lng ito kung masusunog ang buong pilipinas at ilalock ang mga buwaya sa kongreso at s malacanang habang may session sila o kaya'y mamamatay ang lahat ng pilipino dahil s mass starvation.
  • kung gusto mong maging nakakatawa, dapat ay bakla ka. no offense pero grabe, dominated n talaga ng mga bading ang industriya ng komedya. hindi man cla ang nasa itaas, karamihan nmn ng nasa ibaba ay kalahi nila. bihira ng makapanuod ng babaeng komedyante at ung isa pang sikat, isa lng ang brand of comedy (db ruffa mae?) anyway, buti n lng may "whose line is it anyway?" sa star world..nkakanuod p ko ng meaningful n comedy.
  • maxado n taung nkapokus sa panlabas n anyo ng tao. s showbiz ngaun, kung hindi k maganda o gwapo, hindi k sisikat (unless talentado k talaga at matiyaga). buti p c susan boyle n kahit ganun ang itsura ay lubos ang papuri nila s kanya. pakantahin mo un dito, lalaitin lng mukha niya. kaya hindi sumikat ung nanalo ng philippine idol n c mau marcelo kahit magling xa e, maxado kc xang mataba kaya nasasabing "unmarketable" xa. ndi naappreciate ang mga totoong talentado s musika e. mas gusto nten ung magaganda at gwapo ang kumakanta kesa sa kanila. kaya ang kalalabasan, ung mga sikat na artista n lng ang pinapagawa ng album. pinag-rerevive n lng cla ng mga sikat n kanta dati para ndi pancnin n ndi cla marunong kumanta. o kaya todo remix para maging kaboses nila ung mga kagaya nina susan boyle at mau marcelo. isa lng ang masasabi kong magaling talaga at may itsurang ihaharap, c sarah geronimo.
  • patay na ang originality sa telebisyon. kung pwede nga lng e foreign shows n lng ang ipalabas sa local channels at isingit n lng sa lineup nila ung wowowee, eat bulaga, at mag flash report n lng every now and then.
aun lng...wala n kong maidagdag...hirap mag-isip pag sinigawan k n ng nanay mo ng "PATAYIN MO N EAN!!!"

peace!

P.S. iwanna share this video (para sa mga taong walang cable o kaya'y ndi fan ng kamikazee)
