Yeah, All of my books are Urban Fantasy. Some are better than others, but pretty much all the same genre.
Learning Korean for music actually. I...uh..got a bunch of kpop YEARS ago when I was watching Korean horror (which I may watch again as it is freaking creepy). Found the music again when I was transferring stuff onto my new computer. Listened to it, liked it and "found" some more recent music of the ones I liked and others to try (Bi rain, Big Bang, Brown Eyed Girls, Epik High, etc). Unfortunately, music doesn't come with subtitles. I was needing to learn something again anyway as I was getting bored. As usual, reading and understanding it is coming faster to me than listening and understanding. It is fun to write too. Problem is, I keeping mixing Japanese words in...Pretty soon I'll be speaking a completely unintelligible mix of my learned languages when I am trying to figure something out like Steph did with her mix of English, French, Japanese and Mandarin.
PS female Korean singers are MUCH nicer to listen to as their voices aren't high pitched and cutesy or just plain annoying like Japanese ones. I have, like, 2 female Japanese singers that I like and probably 8-10 Korean ones. I can make a list of good artists (male and female) if you would like. Mostly pop and R&B though. Trax was the only "rock/metal" Korean band that I really found anything on...and I think that was with you...IMO, Japan is great for metal and Korea is good for everything else.
