Well, today I come with a short rant/spazz. Of course this thought must be running through your mind if you follow my blog: "Oh geez...another Changmin post, right?" BINGO! This post may sound very much like the other posts I have about him, but there are a few differences, you'll see...
As the days of my life flutter by, I oftentimes notice that I am not doing anything productive *coughlikefindingajobcoughcough*. I will admit that I am quite lazy when it comes to looking for one. Heck, I had a whole year to search since graduating from junior college. But now it seems like I must find one very soon. Not only for me to actually start my life as being independant from family, but also for Changmin. "Why Changmin..." you ask? Well, aside from the increase in his bias fans and recent magazine shoots he's done (which are suspiciously about weddings), two things that Changmin said had caught my attention. During HoMin's interview in 'Taxi', Changmin had said:
1) He'd like to move out
2) He'd like to marry before 30
Now, the moving out part is somewhat good. If he does move out from under Yunho, he'll be experiencing independence for the first time like I will in the near future (hopefully). I remember him saying in an interview a few months ago that he wanted to give Yunho some space...especially if Yunho brought a girl over. That would be a kind gesture, but Yunho may need Changmin just a little longer (since Yunho is a bit messy these days, lol). But after I read that Changmin was thinking about moving out, I was like "Wait, NO!!!" Because if he moved out, he also wouldn't have to worry about any disturbances when he brings a girl over.
I remember him saying that he'd like to marry by 30, so I was like "Okay. I've got like...7 years." I was hoping to meet him by then. But now he wants to marry BEFORE he turns that age. This means that it can be anywhere from now until then. O.O;; I know his reason for saying this is because he's thinking of how hard it may be for a woman to conceive after that time. It is nice of him to think about the health of his future wife and children, but I think that there would still be time after 30 to conceive. In fact, I think after 40 is when it gets harder.

Showing Love to My Other Favorite Kpop Groups: Big Bang
So, I just got through listening to Big Bang's "Lies" a few moments ago, and it made me think about how awesome this song is! XD Then I also realized that I haven't been talking about the other Kpop groups that I listen to. Most of the posts I've done so far have been about my ever favorite group, TVXQ. So, I've decided that every now and then, you will see a post for another Kpop (or Jpop) group.
How did I come across them? Well, it is all thanks to Youtube. I believe it was some time after getting into Kpop when I started discovering groups, and I think Big Bang was my third group to come across. Actually it is a funny story. The video I began to watch was called "We Belong Together". Now, I thought it was a group doing a rendition of Mariah Carey's song with the same title. But it wasn't. My reaction: O.O;; "What is this?!" I was seeing Asian guys that reminded me of rappers. I'm not much of a rap person, so I didn't watch all of it. Of course over the next few months, I did watch a few videos of theirs here and there. I believe the first one I actually sat through and watched all the way was "Dirty Cash".
That song is so~ hilarious! I believe that is when I started actually noticing them. Now, I know a little about them, and they made it a little easier for me to listen to rap (funny, huh?). I was also really impressed with their English in the song "With U". I believe that they weren't as popular at first, but then "Lies" came out, and then their popularity skyrocketed.
As of now, I can't really say I have a member I ogle over. But I do consider G-Dragon my home dog (see that gangster talk of mine? >_<) The reason behind that is because he and I share the exact same birthday! We grow together, lol.
Lately, I haven't been keeping up with Big Bang. I know they had a few releases since the last time I've actually looked up something on them. I do like that Japanese song they did, "Koi wo Kikasete~Let Me Hear Your Voice". It sounds so beautiful! I did take a look at their recent song, "Tonight", but it didn't quite stick. Some fans say that "Stupid Liar" is really good, so I should check that one out.
Today's group is, of course Big Bang.

All in all, Big Bang is a really good group. They've done quite a bit of solo work and I am glad that they are still going strong despite being out of the limelight for quite a long time. I may not be a die-hard VIP, but I shall try to keep up with them as well as the other groups I follow. Big Bang, hwaiting!

AADBSK3 Makes Me Think: "Why Did It Happen to Them"?
Hooray! I finally got a dvd boxset of TVXQ! Which one is it? AADBSK3~! I am very greatful for a friend who has so graciously bought it for me. For the past two days, my sister and I have been watching all the disks. We managed to finish it within those two days, and now we're watching it again. ^.^
Today, my post talks about some of the things that they've said on the dvds. It is really interesting. After watching the "Couple Talks" and listening to their answers, it made me think...were their answers premonitions of things to come? Right now, I can't think of some direct quotes that the members said. But I know that most of the things they were saying things like they hoped that the team would last long and that they knew each other so well. Certain parts that I can remember was their interactions during the "Saipan Story" and their "Making of..." videos. It was a walk down memory lane watching them in the making of their "Vacation" mini dramas. I do remember (just now) one particular scene in the "Couple Talk" of the HoSu couple where Yunho and Junsu were talking about how all the members were now becoming quite concerned on the future of TVXQ. They said that it wasn't a big thing to worry about before, but as the years progressed, they began to talk about it more and more. But as I watched these videos, it made me think: "Man...I rea~lly hope they come back together. It makes me sad how they had to break up like this." :( It's like that feeling where you don't know how much you miss it until it's gone. All in all, I am really glad that I have this dvd boxset, and I'll treasure it forever because it is a section in time that was really special.
Now onto the second part of my post...
I'm sure most Cassies nowadays are aware that the members are suffering. But with what I have read about Jaejoong and Yunho recently, I'm still quite concerned. In a recent interview that Jaejoong has had, he says that he cures his lonliness with music and other activities. Yunho seems to have become more messy. It's like he's lost in a fog. I'm sure all members had a really hard time since the beginning of this whole fiasco. And for a while, I thought that they were okay in the months that followed. But the recent interviews (especially Jaejoong's) just made me really sad to hear how they are feeling. However, I have a thought on Yunho's thoughts on the seperation. I know that he wants to keep the TVXQ name alive, and that is why he probably stayed with SM. But I think that if the two could have left with the other three, they'd still do well outside of SM...even if it meant leaving the name behind. Now, I know some fans will disagree with me on this, and say that "Even if they left, where would they go? SM was the best." I'd have to disagree. If we Cassies are continuously praising the members for their exceptional skill, then shouldn't they be able to do well in whatever entertainment label they're under? Like I said before, yeah, SM brought them to where they are now...and they can praise SM for doing so (much like Hangeng did during a magazine interview after his lawsuit). But I don't know if they should really continue under them anymore. ^^;; All I know is that it must be very tough, but I guess that this is how it goes when artists grow. But I really hope that things go for the better...and hopefully they'll come back together again. Like I've said before: if you ever think about wanting to become a celebrity (especially a Kpop celebrity), it would be best to think and rethink it over in your mind before you are ready.
Well, that concludes my post for today. I hope I made some sense. I just wanted to give you all some food for thought...even though this subject has been debated over and over again. But now I am starting to feel that TVXQ has been through so much that I think no other group has been through.
