And the lure of awesome Asian merchandise causes me to spend more of my money...
I worry this is going to be a weekly thing...
I kept with my theme of splitting my order in half between Taiwanese products, and Korean products.
Fahrenheit (Final Collectible Edition) (CD+DVD) - I've decided to get all of Fahrenheit's albums. I really love them. I picked their first album for my second order, no reason really. Maybe because recently I've been obsessed with 我有我的 Young, and 只對你有感覺. Thought to be fair, I do like Two Sided better. Oh well. I'll get that one next. I'm kinda upset that the DVD doesn't have an MV for 只對你有感覺, which is a totally adorable video.
Big Bang 1st Mini Album - Always - I just know I'm going to collect all of Big Bang's albums. What can I say, they're so awesome! I decided to get Always first. I love Always (the song), 거짓말, and 없는 번호. And I always like when TOP does solos, so that's 4 songs out of 6 I love. Plus, the Intro sounds weirdly like Boyz II Men to me (I don't know WHY exactly... I think the music is similar to Motownphilly).
Wish to See You Again Original TV Soundtrack (OST) (CD+DVD) - My favorite OST (Prince Turns to Frog and Ying Ye 3+1 come close!), I like every single song on this album. Even the requisite instrumentals are lovely. The F4 songs are, of course, the stars of the album, but I love 慢慢的走 a TON. It comes with the F4 MV's (DVDs that come with MVs will always highly interest me. Finding high quality Mandarin MVs is harder than it looks), AND extra footage from the show. I LOVED WtSYA (Zai Zai! Chuan Yi! Vanness! Ken! Michelle! Terri!), so I'm excited for this.
Big Bang Vol. 2 - Remember - There's only 2 songs on this CD that I don't love. Like I said, I'm buying all of Big Bang's stuff. I'm sad that the Big Bang CDs don't come with MVs. I think I've gotten spoiled from the Mandarin ones. Oh well, it's not like I can't get really high quality Big Bang MVs easily enough.
I totally have like, 20 items on my "To buy" list. Mostly music, but some movies too.
Sometimes I wish I was more into Japanese stuff. I do watch a lot of jdramas, but I'm kinda clueless about their pop culture. Taiwan is my boom. It's too bad, Japan has some nice merchandise. China/Taiwan falls short in that aspect.
And um, how did I miss Seung Ri on Perez Hilton!? I read Perez religiously! Granted, I wasn't into Big Bang at the time, but I remember all the other Kpop stuff he posted about (which is how I first came to know, and love Lee Hyori). Don't read the comments, btw (I NEVER do). They're stupid, and racist.
I got to stay at home today because of the marathon work session yesterday. I AM going into work on Sunday though. That's not terrible; I don't mind working on weekends, it's quiet. Plus, I'm going to see if I can get to Chinatown. I want to see if I can get some drama DVDs cheap (I once got Why Why Love, and They Kiss Again DVDs for like, $20). Boston's Chinatown is kinda creepy though. Whenever I go there, I get accosted by dudes (not Asian dudes though). Therefore I'm generally wary there.
