KPOP: Wonder Girls' Like This MV


If you don't know who are these very beautiful ladies, then you must be missing out! Their hit single, Nobody is very known and if you haven't heard it, you better do. I'm serious about this. Wonder Girls were the queen of girl bands back then before Girls' Generation took over the spot. As you can see, there are 5 of them and one member, Sunmi left and was replaced with Hyelim.

This was during their debut days with ex member Sunmi :)


Wonder Girls have only 5 members, so remembering them isn't that hard. In fact, you only need to remember 5 names! :)

First off, we have the angelic leader Sunye! :) She sings a lot and she's my bias in Wonder Girls.


Next, we have the very very adorable Sohee. Look at the girl, isn't she just the cutest thing you've ever seen?


Thirdly, we have the dazzling Yeeun who is one of the main vocalists of Wonder Girls. :)


Up next, we have the very sexy and charismatic rapper of Wonder Girls, Yubin.


Lastly, we have the youngest member, Hyelim :)


Anyways, back to the mv, with a title like "Like This", I was expecting some sort of upbeat song filmed in a club and seeing the girls grooving to the music. Instead, I was trolled. The mv begins with clips of various people doing various stuff and I was wondering if I had clicked the wrong link.

And then, one by one, the girls start to show up and I was like, okay, this is the right link. They began dancing in the middle of the place and I was like, wow, a flash mob. Now, this is interesting.



Honestly, I felt that it was very refreshing to see the girls releasing a very unique music video. The flash mob was unexpected and I liked the dance moves a lot. It's energetic, just like the song and watching the other people grooving to it is very uplifting.


I especially liked the hook line, Come on baby, come on, feel it, baby feel it. :) Yubin's rap is also a must notable mention! It suited the song amazingly well and the song has been repeating in my head for the past two days. :)

All in all, I liked this song very much and I would highly recommend it to any Kpop fans to take a listen. It is groovy and refreshing to say the least.

Last but not least, this is the music video for curious peeps to watch! :)

Another food entry and this time I like to introduce my favourite porridge place! :D You can get this porridge at I Love Yoo! restaurant outlets! :)


The porridge comes with a set of yue tiao but you can also choose to have it ala carte :)


As you can see, the porridge is thick and very smooth. It is normally the scallop porridge that would be sold but it depends to you as well if you want to opt for other types. :)


This is the close up view of the tasty yue tiao. :) Does it look tempting enough?

Where is your favourite porridge place? :)

KPOP: Dal Shabet's Mr. Bang Bang MV


If you don't know who they are, well you better do now. :) They are Dal Shabet and though they are no veterans in the music industry, they are pretty popular, provided that you keep up with kpop every now and then. :)

Dal Shabet's debut was the cutest debut ever. Their first song, Supa Dupa Diva was stuck in my head for days! Of course, what do you expect when the producers behind their music is none other than E-Tribe? The very same producers who made the popular hit song Gee for Girls' Generation!

If you don't know their names, well, let's check them out one by one! :) FYI, Leader Viki left Dal Shabet recently and a new member was added. :)

First off, we have Jiyul who is the most adorable member of Dal Shabet. She is the visual of the group, playing the same role as YoonA in Girls' Generation :)


Next, we have Serri who I personally always thought resembled Girls' Generation Jessica and Wonder Girl's Sunye. She sings the most and she also happens to be the newly elected leader of Dal Shabet! :)


Thirdly, we have Ga Eun who is the lead rapper of Dal Shabet :) She also has very nice female abs as well!


Up next, we have Ah Young who has very large eyes and plays the role of a vocalist in Dal Shabet.


Subin is the maknae of Dal Shabet otherwise the youngest member and she is the lead vocalist in the group! :)


Lastly, new member Woohee is the new addition to the group. She is ridiculously gorgeous so you won't miss her! She reminds me a lot of Girls' Generation Yuri and S.E.S's Eugene.


Anyways, back to the mv, with a title named Mr. Bang Bang, I was expecting something like their previous mv, Hit U but it was very much different. The girls became very pretty robbers instead!

I liked how they gave a commendable amount of lines for new member Woohee and that she made quite an impact when she sang. The song is very catchy and it suits Dal Shabet's style perfectly. The chorus is catchy and the dance moves are simply yet sexy.


I also very much liked how Serri sang the bridge of the song and the odd twist of them sharing the money they stole with everyone. :)

In conclusion, I liked the song and it was indeed a refreshing change from Hit U. I liked Hit U very much but on the other hand, I missed seeing Dal Shabet being so cute and bubbly like this. I'm looking forward to see them perform this song on music shows soon! :)

Last but not least, here is the music video for you peeps to watch! :D

KPOP: INFINITE's The Chaser MV


Truthfully, I do like INFINITE. I think songs like their debut song, Come Back Again and Be Mine are very catchy and the dance moves are very much impressive. I know all of the boys name but I really only paid attention to L, Sunggyu and Hoya. Those three are my biases. :)

This was during their Come Back Again days :D


And this is during their Be Mine days :)


If you don't know all of their names, don't fret. There are 7 members in INFINITE, so let's check them out, one by one here! :)

First off, we have Sunggyu who is the leader of INFINITE. He sings a lot and he has very small eyes. So it's hard to miss him.


Next up, we have Woohyun who also happens to sing a lot and he's known for his abs. :) I have a friend who happens to fancy him a lot too! 


Thirdly, we have L who is dashingly handsome and sings fairly well! :)


Next, we have Hoya who I personally feel looks a tad like DBSK's Uknow. Hoya's a cutie as well!


Up next, we have Dongwoo who is the main rapper of the group! :)


Now, in INFINITE, there are three members with the middle name Sung, to differentiate them, just remember that the first member with the middle name Sung is Sunggyu, the leader (as previously mentioned) and the second is Sungyeol who is very charming as well :D


Lastly, we have the maknae of the group, who is none other than pretty boy Sungjong :D



Anyways, back to the mv, when I first clicked on it, I was entranced by the car rotating a few times in the air and I was honestly expecting to see a crash within a few seconds. It didn't happen but oh well, it finally did towards the end of the song.

I liked how this song showcases INFINITE's vocals and that the music is significantly easy to identify. If I had heard this song somewhere else, I would immediately guessed that it was an INFINITE song. Sunggyu's voice is hard to dismiss and the way they harmonized is very pleasing to the ear. Their synchronized dance moves are also highly impressive as well.



If INFINITE keeps on releasing songs like this, they would definitely gain more fans and popularity in a short amount of time. They are definitely massive now but their potential to grow even bigger is visibly existent.


Sunggyu sings a decent amount of lines in this song and that pleases me so much. I've always been a fan of his voice and I also liked how Hoya sang a line as well. The chorus is very catchy and addictive and the boys look fabulously cute! :D

In conclusion, I really really liked the song very much and I liked how INFINITE kept their signature style with this song. The boys can sing, dance and are ridiculously good looking. What more do you want? :)

Last but not least, here is the music video for curious peeps to watch! :) Enjoy!

RAMBLES: FOOD


Today's spotlight will be on a restaurant I always frequent whenever possible and that is none other than Garden Recipe ;) This restaurant is very cozy and the service given here is excellent!


This is near the kitchen and there are many pictures of the delicious food hung up on the wall ;)


This is the central part of the restaurant :)


I had the mushroom soup for starters and I must say that the bread is extremely crunchy! :) The soup is very light in flavour as well!


This is the organic noodles and yes, as you can see, there is a lot of vegetables in it! So this one would be great for vegans! :D


This one is mamak fried ramen and it is my absolutely favourite! It tastes identically like a real mamak mee goreng and the flavour is immensely spicy! :D


For snacktime, I grabbed some sushi! This one is the eel roll otherwise known as unagi roll! :D


This is the salmon roll :D


This is also another favourite snack of mine, Kit Kat :D

What about you? What did you eat today? :D

RAMBLES: FOOD



Yes, another food entry! I bet you guys are smiling right now. ;) I had lunch earlier and decided to share what I've had since the place that I went to, is very much underrated. The food are gorgeously yummy and the price is pretty affordable too! :)


This is the drink I ordered and though it is just iced tea but trust me, its real good. Some iced tea tastes like water and milk. :( This drink is also affectionately known as teh peng ;)


This is the infamous fried noodles that I absolutely love! It's moist and spicy and the beansprouts are downright crunchy to munch on! :D


This is the very popular vegetable dish, Kangkung Belacan. It is basically kangkung leaves stir fried with spicy shirmp paste. :D


This is the sweet and sour chicken and the chicken are boneless and pretty much in bite size. It's chewy and really tasty! ;)


This is fried rice with salted fish so yes, this is highly recommended as well. It has this salty tang to it and the rice is simply yummy!

My lunch was amazing, was yours great as well? :)

RAMBLES: FOOD


Yes, here I am, once more posting an entry about food. Oh wells, I love food so yes, I'll be posting more food entries from now on! :)

I had lunch at a restaurant downtown today and I must say that the food was extremely delicious, despite having no meat, MSG, food colouring and other unhealthy ingredients! :)


This is the Napolietana Pasta that my brother had and he said it was very good and that the cheese was yummy!


I had the Fried Ramen with Tomatoes because I liked this the best and its basically fried ramen with bean sprouts and egg and other vegetables. I like playing it safe, to say the least. :)


This is the curry rice and notice how the rice used is brown rice and not white rice? Yes, it is definitely a healthier alternative. :) The curry gravy is thick and smells real good!

Speaking about curry rice...I have decided to put the spotlight on my favourite curry rice today and yes I know it's unhealthy and all but really, can you blame me? Look at the pictures below and tell me it doesn't look scrumptious! :P


This amazingly delicious curry rice is so yummy and affordable too! As you can see, the portions are pretty commendable and my oh my, the curry gravy was so dazzlingly good and the sambal that the lady gave me was spicy! :)


This is how my curry rice looked like after mixing the curry and sambal together. It was really appetizing to say the least and I can proudly say that I finished it. ;)

What did you have for lunch today? :)
