MATSUJUN'S HERO: SON GOKU FROM DRAGON BALL

I first learned about Goku in second grade. I was at a friend's house, flipping through his copy of SHONEN JUMP, when I just happened to open it at a DRAGON BALL page. And just like that, I was hooked. I sure did my share of pretending to defeat the enemy by focusing my energy through "Kamehameha~!!" (that's the pose on this page). I came to buy SHONEN JUMP every week, and I also own most of the collected volumes. The art is great, and all the characters are just fascinating. I think the reason why I'm especially drawn to Goku out of all of them is because he's a hero who combines both cheerfulness and superhuman strength. You really make people get all worked up when you're that strong. And every time he overcomes a challenge, he just becomes more and more mature, in a cool way. All 42 collected volumes are really amazing. Just try and read them yourself. You'll get all excited and enjoy them without ever getting bored.

C.N.Blue (acronym for "Code Name Blue") is a Korean punk(?) rock band that debuted in Japan this past August. Hailing from the same company as F.T.Island, they are trying to break into the Japanese market (see the trend here people) and have yet to debut officially in Korea. For anyone who has watched the Korean drama, "You're Beautiful", the face of Jung Yong Hwa would be extremely familiar.

Unlike most Korean "rock" bands with their similar sounding mild emo-rock ballad music, C.N.Blue went with alternative-punk rock - diversity without being heavy. My only complain though... If you are breaking into the Japanese indies market, why is the majority of the songs sung totally in ENGLISH? Out of the 10 songs they have so far, only one is in Japanese. While it is good to those who understand but I think the underground scene are still filled with listeners who are fluent in only Japanese thus the connection to attract due to language is somewhat lacking.

Here is the first mini album "Now or Never":

Seems like MJ and Chipmunk went to the recording studio today^^

Un mini cm dl countdown 2009-2010

...please. Was this in the 2006 AAA dvd or is this another excellent Korean fanmade video?

If so, I must have forgotten and definitely need to rewatch XD Like their Chinese, I think their Korean also CMI if not a little better because there is no complicated intonation to go with the pronunciation. Other than the "고마워요", only Ohchan's pronunciation (as usual) sounded passable not that I am an expert in Korean speech or anything haha just lots of listening practice.

Charice came and performed at Singapore Idol in Indoor Stadium yesterday (if i had known earlier, i would have gotten tickets just to see her). But nevertheless, stunning performance as always! Typical Gurmit went a lil crazy haha.

Aiya! Sezairi won lah... Not that impressed with this year's winner.

Nice image~!

Feels calm ^^
