Oliver 22,442 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Its a new month! (I cant believe were already half way through the year!! Its insane how fast time goes by!! It feels like New Years was just a few weeks ago!) There's alot that happened this May in KPOP! coming out of the tragic Ferry Incident.. It feels like a lot of things has been done within the past month! Here are all of the Korean releases of the month May: [May 7] EXO-K (Mini Album : Overdose) [May 7] EXO-M (Mini Album : Overdose) [May 7] Baek Jiyoung (Digital Single: Fervor) [May 8] Standing Egg (Mini Album : 36.5) [May 9] Humming Urban Stereo (Pre-release single: Scully Doesn't Know) [May 9] JungGigo ft.

From these releases I'll talk about my top 5 1) To be honest I wasn't a big fan of EXO (except for Chanyeol and Kyungsoo) up until Overdose came out like I liked Growl but I never really followed them until now.. I actually waited until it was officially released by SM before listening to it and watching the MV! and I don't know about you guys but I actually really love Overdose.. to me its even better than Growl! I remember when it first came out It was actually the morning of my last day of finals! I was trying to study in the car but I couldnt get the chorus out of my head! lol.. Basically it's my favorite song of the May.. 2) This one is pretty special to me.. because this comeback is actually the first one they've had where I knew each member.. lol (I started following them after the Festival in LA last April) It was a good song! but I didnt really like the MV that much.. tbh im not a big fan of their long intros >.< I started truly appreciating the song after their performances in Music Shows.. I love the song and the choreography! 3) 15& had their comeback with Sugar & A FULL ALBUM!!! I'll have to admit.. I liked I Can't Hide it 10x more than the new title track.. But I didn't understand all the criticisms the Title track got.. It was a fun song that Showcased their Personalities as well as their amazing talents.. and besides.. they're just 17.. They've got plenty of time to take over the kpop world <3 Love you girls! 4) I was so happy about IU's comeback! The song is just so good and haunting.. god shes amazing! her voice is so unique and gorgeous.. Theres something about her tone that could actually make you fall in love with the song! IU I Love You <3 5) Hyosung's Solo Debut was upon us.. at first I really was disappointed.. but then i started really liking it! I truly think that she is one of the most attractive girls in KPOP ever since Poison.. she looked really good and sounded good too! I really liked the Music Video as well.. Variety I started watching a couple of shows.. and so far i've been enjoying them 1) Running Man Im fairly new to this show.. The first episode I watched was in March and i've been trying to watch all the episodes for this summer.. So far I've watched 43 episodes! I've been really enjoying it to be honest.. The only episode I've watched that was released in May was the one with 2PM & 2NE1! it was really funny and adorable! Dara was the highlight of the episode!! haha and I felt bad for Minzy! they were a bit too rough with her :/ It was really fun! 2) Roommate I was a bit skeptical about the show.. especially after reading what Knatizens have been saying about it really shoving the love lines down everyone's throat.. But when I watched the first episode.. those comments were very exaggerated.. its true about the love lines but i was expecting stuff way worse when I watched it.. the episode was 2 hours long! but it was very amusing.. and I get sad after the episode ends! lol I actually started watching it because of Chanyeol and Bom.. I love those 2 so much! and its a shame they are never together.. All and all its a really fun show but it doesn't look like its been doing so well ratings wise.. 3) IGOT7 It finally started!!! I was so happy about it! its very reminiscent of 2PM's old variety shows! its really funny and gives a chance for got7 to show their true colors and better introduce themselves to the public! its also great timing since their scheduled to have their comeback in June! not to mention Kim Shinyoung is the Host!! its a cool show.. Im still waiting on the english subs of Episode 3 with Suzy *_* 4) Kara Project I just watched the first episode yesterday and it was pretty good.. not what I expected at all.. I actually started liking them all and I now want them to debut as a new group!!! >.< (I like Yuji & Youngji the most!) I'm gonna keep checking it out.. it looks really promising 5) Real 15& FINALLY!!! I've been waiting for this to happen for a really long time!! the first episode came out and it was the behind the scenes of their Sugar MV GOT7 and 2PM's Chansung came on set and it was just a really sweet episode! *Anticipating the next episode* 6) Happy Together Happy Together is the only show I've been watching for a long time.. ever since 2012? I still love it and try to watch every episode! This month there was only one episode that aired which was with Foreigners that are in the entertainment industry in Korea! It was alright.. but Myungsoo kept getting on my nerves with his ignorance i feel like he took it a bit too far this time! the meals were pretty disappointing.. but all in all it was still a funny episode! Groups & Idols I started liking Alot.. 1) 15&.. I liked them before but I began to love them!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hw0R346n9cE 2) CN Blue! I liked Yonghwa from his episodes on Running Man! and I liked Sorry! but I found a new song that I've been obsessed with lately! 3) Troy! Wow they're good! Bomkey I love you Notable Events Kris has filed a lawsuit against SM Entertainment to terminate his contract. YG FINALLY GAVE A RELEASE DATE FOR TAEYANG'S ALBUM!!! Music Bank has been cancelled for 7 WEEKS! EXO Moves forward with 11 Members for their first solo concert U-Kiss adds a new member for their June Comeback Multipe sightings of Yubin!!! Sohee & TOP giving me the WonderBang feels with their Reebok CF.. <3 Suzy Cast in a "Pansori" Movie <3 KNatizens complement Jiyeon for once!! lol g.o.d and Fly To The Sky have their long awaited comebacks Sam Kim & Kwon Jinah (runners ups for the 3rd season of kpop star) join Antenna Music.. Team B to Perform in the YG Family Concert in August.. Kara to add new members through a reality competition show Kamilias hanging public banners to oppose DSP from adding new members to KARA Nicole Confirms solo debut in Korea with a new agency Anyway.. this is my month in KPOP! what would you say is your most memorable events that happened this month? I'm thinking of doing this for every month! I hope you like this! lol >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
