Girl Groups Invasion!

Lately, my mind's been invaded with girl groups' songs I almost forgot that Exo had made their comeback!

Since the comeback of 4minute, Fiestar and Red Velvet, I really didn't thought that more girl groups will come back or debut. Added to my favorite girl groups now are CLC, The Ark, and Oh My Girl. And gosh OMG has 8 members with similar faces (haha) I think it would take time to remember who's who. I already knew Binnie since she's the only short-haired one, and Seunghee because of her eye brows (hehe).

Check out my latest favorite girl group songs below!

4minute - Crazy

I love 4minute! But their recent songs really did not caught my attention until this one! And that Jihyun part! That's the sexiest Jihyun I have seen.

Fiestar - You're Pitiful and Today

I'm so happy for Fiestar! After 3 years, they've made their first mini album! For the information of you all, Fiestar is my #1 bias girl group. Sadly, they are so underrated :( But I still love and support them! I like all their songs but my most favorite songs are Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes and Today.

Red Velvet - Ice Cream Cake

 

Welcome to the group, Yeri! And because of this comeback of them, my new bias from RV is now Seulgi! She's so pretty and I like her eyes.

Crayon Pop - FM

Crayon Pop is cute as always! And weird... But still cute! 

Miss A - Only You and Love Song

 

Almost everybody are hating on Suzy because she has many parts in Only You. But I really don't care as long as the song is very good. Haha! And Love Song too, I like its chorus.

SNSD - Catch Me If You Can

I posted the Japanese Version since its sounds better for me. The song is not that catchy but what keeps me listening is the chorus since I'm a fan of EDM.

EXID - Ah Yeah

I know EXID since their song I Feel Good cuz that song is really good. But I didn't bother to know the members, and now I regret it! LE is now on my bias list! I really wish that Fiestar would become like them, unnoticed at first but now so popular.
 

Now let's proceed to debut songs...

CLC - Pepe

The title is awkward since "Pepe" in Filipino slang is a genital part of a woman. But oh, it's also the nickname of PH's national hero! At first I really don't like the song but I found myself being in LSS to this so, yeah. And their attitudes are just like any other CUBE artists, cute and cheerful.

The Ark - The Light

The MV made me cry! I remember the Sewol accident that happened last year. And it's a great debut song, not like the ordinary girl group debut songs.

Pocket Girls - Bbang Bbang

Just like SNSD's Catch Me If You Can, Bbang Bbang is not really the best song but what keeps my attention is the chorus. It's just that in chorus, I think the 'uhh' and the 'bbang bbang' are not necessary. Well anyway, good luck for them.

Oh My Girl - Cupid

This is what I'm talking about! They all look the same to me and they are so many. Haha! Unlike their sunbaes with 5 members only. But I will look forward to them since they are from WM where my babies are. And the song is really catchy, I like the background beat, the chorus, the rap, and Binnie! Binnie is just so cute.

EXO - EXODUS Album Review

EXO - The 2nd Album 'EXODUS'

Release Date: March 30, 2015

Genre: Dance, R&B, Soul, Ballad

EXO's 2nd studio album, EXODUS, was released on March 30, 2015 in both Korean and Mandarin versions. Domestic pre-sales for the album surpassed 500,000 within 24 hours, setting a new record for pre-sales. The group released an early release of their title track 'Call Me Baby' on March 27, 2015 due to leaked versions of the song which received an all kill status, ranking #1 on all Korea's major music charts. On March 29, 2015 EXO released their track “First Love,” a special gift for EXO-Ls which was available for only 10 hours. (Wikipedia.com)

This is not a negative opinion but I really think that XOXO is better that EXODUS. My favorite songs in this album are Call Me Baby, Exodus, El Dorado, and Hurt only. I'm not saying the other songs are bad, it's just that they do not catch my attention. Please don't hate me EXO-Ls :( But well, this album was really another success for them. I can see them winning many trophies AGAIN. I just wish EXO won't overwork too much and take care of their health and body.

***THIS REVIEW MIGHT CONTAIN SPOILERS***

So yeah I just watched it last night. First off, i'd like to say that Kazuki, the main girl character, really looked like Rainie Yang sometimes. And the boy, Haruyama, he may not be one of the typical flower boys i've seen on some japanese movies, but trust me he's hot! He sometimes remind me of Dongwoo from Infinite or Shinee's Jonghyun, IDK why. And let me remind you guys this is my first movie review so pls bear with me. x o x o

Thanks to this movie I woke up like a panda! My eyes are so heavy from crying last night. At first I really thought this movie's boring cuz i really can't understand Kazuki. I thought she has a psychological problem, rly. She barely talks and she's too innocent and she hates her mother. But then I realized, she's in mid-school so she's in adolescence stage and is lack of attention. And then tada! Here comes Haruyama! The leader of the motorcycle gang, The Nights. I dont know if they rly meant "knights". Well, he's really not the leader until Tooru passed his throne to Haru. It's very sudden how they became a couple but it doesn't matter. What matter is how they loved each other.

Kazuki ran away from her mother and lived with Hiroko, Tooru's girlfriend but then Hiroko disappeared with Tooru so Kazuki now lived with Haru. And later on Haru helped Kazuki to go back to her mom. And she now (kinda) accepts Suzuki, her mom's lover. At first, Haru rly thought of Kazuki as just one of his girls but she's too pure. He can't even lay a hand on her. Like Kazuki said, when they started living together Haru is always kinda busy but it's really because he's conscious about her. How cute! And then the night came when The Nights and the enemy gang must meet for their glorious fight, Kazuki showed up at Haru's house not rly knowing about the fight. Haru asked her to buy a drink and then he left to fight. I really thought, he would die because of the fight, but there's no fight happened that night.

Since Haru's late, The Nights got caught by the police and when Haru goes to them he saw the police and he U-turned and then bam! He got hit by a big truck. He flew 5 meters away. He's not dead yet but he suffered a lot of injuries and the doctor said they should be prepared for what would happen next. While Haru is in the hospital fighting for life, here's Kazuki not eating and talking and cuz of that she was also hospitalized. But well, Haru regained consciousness! Haru's younger brother scolded Kazuki that his brother said that he doesn't wanna die because of her. (I'm glad he's willing to live because of Kazuki.) She remembered what Suzuki told her that her life is important to Haru too and then realized her mistake and endlessly asked for forgiveness. Later on, Haru got discharged from the hospital but his left arm and leg are now paralyzed. In the end of the movie, we found out that Hiroko and Tooru will have a baby soon and they're living a new life. Kazuki also pursued her studies and Haruyama's still can't walk better but he got back to his work.

The End.
I'll give this movie 3 thumbs up
