Happy 11th Anniversary Shinhwa

Time flies... the 10th anniversary concert was just over and now one year has passed. After the 12th anniversary, Wannie and Eric will be out right?

Miss you guys. Wearing the Shinhwa watch and bought orange Barcadi and Orange cake to celebrate your 11th anniversary. I will be watching your concert dvd will eating the orange stuff.

Take care and see you guys soon.

Shinhwa Forever. (will wait for the day when orange balloons fly again)

Perfect Singers - Shinhwa

Here are some videos of Shinhwa singing (with the extra music accompaniment removed). Listen to their voices carefully and witness their perfect singing and dancing. Hardly missing a beat or a pitch, its almost as good as listening to their CDs.

This is solid proof that they are really talented and that's one of the reason they lasted so long in the entertainment circle. They can sing very well LIVE, unlike some other popular groups, who just act cute / cool and pretend to sing.

After listening to this, I am so very proud to be a Shinhwa fan, to know them and their talents. Of course they would have put in alot of hard work to achieve that too. Talent without perspiration is nothing. They can sing and dance at the same time, and yet not huffing and puffing, keeping in tune to the songs.

With all their craziness and playfulness, they are serious singers. That's why I love Shinhwa!

Dongwan & Eric countdown

One more month has gone by.... time passed faster this month because I was waiting anxiously for SHS's new album - Keep Leaves.

Dongwannie, another 22 months to go. Eric, you've got another 20 months to go. I wish there were 20 more days to go.

Ric & Wan, as I'm typing this blog entry, I'm listening to Ric's favourite bro - Sungie's new song (Sarang Byeong). Its really nice. His voice is strong & clear. I'm sure the two of you also enjoy listening to HS's album, right? What kind of feedback did you give to Sungie?

Little Prince Hyesung's Passport Holder

I bought this from yesasia. It is really of a very good quality. Thick and strong. I am so glad I made a good buy. Now I can't wait to use my passport. (Feels like Hyesung's with me when I travel)

3rd album side 2 - Keep Leaves

I finally got my hands on my copy of Shin Hyesung's 3rd Album Side 2 - Keep Leaves.

The songs I love are track 5 (sarang byeong), track 7 (Love letter), Track 8 (beautiful girl) and Track 9 (keujarieseo). Love letter is a song of a faster tempo than most of Hyesungie's ballads.

Great job, Sungie. Love your voice. Just imported all the songs on this disc onto my 2 ipods. Going to listen to it again before I sleep because that's the loveliest thing to do, listening to you, serenading me to sleep, to sweet dreams, dreams that are all about you. Good night, Sungie.

By the way, I'm actually listening to beautiful girl (track 8) now as I'm typing this entry.

Shinhwa - Brand New

Requested for the song - Brand New on Arirang "Pops in Seoul". It was selected & played on TV. Wow! I'm so happy. I requested for the song, to remind Shinhwa that I'm still thinking of them & missing them. The song's dedicated to Shinhwa!

Happy Birthday, Eric!

Eric's birthday is here again. One more birthday to go and you should be out of the army, right?

Can't wait for your next birthday to come, just another 365 days. Are you celebrating with Hyesung or is Sung too busy because his album's release is tomorrow? Enjoy yourself. Happy Birthday!

Hyesung's CD - 3rd album Side 2

This is how his album will look like. Can't wait to get my hands on it. It will be released on the 17th of February, one day after Eric's birthday. I wonder if he'll give Eric a copy on his birthday.

Happy Valentines Day to Shinhwa too.

Hyesung's teaser 2

In this teaser, it showcases Hyesung's powerful vocals. For those unfamiliar with Shinhwa and Hyesung, its a good display for his sweet, mesmerising voice.

Hyesung's side 2 - # 1 on preorder charts

Hyesung's side 2 is the best seller on Yesasia's preorder chart. I heard that its also the best seller on the Japanese & Korean preorder chart. I'm so happy for you. You make all your fans proud. Shinhwa fans too.

Taken from Yesasia

Beloved by many for his tender, heart-piercing vocals, Shin Hye Sung shifts his focus back to ballad, a genre in which the singer has carved a niche for himself over the past decade. In the second installation of his third album entitled Side 2 – Keep Leaves, Shin offers a huge dose of soulful, heart-rending lyrics and enchanting melodies, highlighted by his trademark vocals.

Some of the collaborators for the album include Kim Jae Seok of Wanted, high-profile hitmaker Kim Do Hoon, up-and-coming songwriter Willgoh, and multi-talented musician Vink, Shin's regular contributor who previously worked on Shin's second solo album as well as Shinhwa's 9th album. The principle track Whe jeon wha het seo ("Why Did You Call" – Track 3) is composed by Ha Jung Ho, the same talent behind Sarang hagi jo eun nal ("Perfect Day for Romance"), Shin's duet with Miss Korea Lee Ha Nee which featured in the previous installment Side 1– Live and Let Live. Though awash in tears with lyrics about yearning for a lost love, the song sets itself apart from conventional ballads by mixing in a wide range of dynamic sounds. In the music video version, Shin teams up with his SBS variety show Love Letter partner Lee Young Ah to render a beautiful love story set against Sapporo's snowy landscape.

Hyesung's Side 2 - keep leaves (teaser)

The date for the release of Hyesung's 3rd album (side 2) is nearing. He has released a teaser.

Hyesung's 3rd album side 2

I just preordered the album yesterday - it will only ship on the 18 of Feb. I will probably get it around the end of Feb. Looks good, cant wait. Some photos are up at the Goodenter website. No teasers yet. Hyesung, I wish you all the best in this album. I'm sure your Shinhwa brothers will also be supporting you in the background. Your voice has always been angelic and I'm sure it will sell very well. Heard that your album topped the preordering charts. Congrats!

Andy's calendar & postcard

Andy's released some postcards and calendar. He looks very good in them.

M designs a shirt

Here's a shirt M designed. Its available on yesasia. It looks nice. M's great at designing.

There's also a puzzle of M available. I can complete it and hang it on my wall.

Counting down

Eric, 21 months to go.......... Dongwan, 23 months and counting.....

Still waiting for Dongwan's 2008 Concert DVD and Hyesung's 3rd album, side 2 - Keep Leaves.

Happy Lunar New Year

Happy Lunar New Year, Shinhwa!

Take care and best wishes for the new year.

Shin Hye Sung 3rd Side II - Keep Leaves

Hyesung's 3rd album (Side 2) will be released on the 17th of February 2009. I think pre-ordering will begin on the 3rd of February.

Can't wait to drown in his sweet voice.

Shinhwa Special Collection

This is a full set of Shinhwa's cds. From their first album to the 9th and also including the various winter stories and summer story.

Its a good chance for those who've just come to like Shinhwa or for those who could not get the cds that are quite old.

A great collector's item.

Happy Birthday, Andy!

Happy Birthday, Andy. I'm sure the boys will gather to celebrate your birthday, right?

Wishing you happiness and good health.

Happy New Year, Boys!

A Brand New year has begun. Eric - you have 22 months to go & Dongwan - you have 24 months more. I'll be counting down and waiting for you right here.

M & JJ, I hope you'll enlist early too, then we'll all be reunited earlier. Andy too. I hope you'll enlist this year. Hyesung, I'm also waiting for you. Though I'm waiting for side 2, don't rush, lose sleep & appetite. Eat well, rest well & sing well. I'll be looking out for that handsome prince - waiting to see you singing on TV. I also need to hear your voice.. singing me to sleep.

A new year calls for new resolutions and wishes.... I wish you guys a Happy New Year filled with lots of awards and good music. Good health and wealth too. Take care & I love you.
