A Look at Fanfiction: Video Games, K-Pop and More…

There are a variety of ways to create a fanfic, however one of the most interesting ways that has recently become popular is for a single fan can take on the identity of a character/figure and act as if he or she is that figure in real life. - nolannabi, kpopkollective writer

If you’re a part of a fandom whether it’s a game, book series or artist, Fanfiction is definitely a part of it. After taking a look at articles written about fanfiction, I decided to write my own. Just for a moment, I would like to concentrate on a few categories of fanfiction that I don’t see focused enough in fanfiction articles: Anime, K-Pop and Video Games.

Is the Korean music industry losing its creativity?

Music around the world in the eyes of many critics, fans and people working in the industry see a change in the creativity of music. The Korean music industry seems to be no different. A while ago, allkpop made a post about “Is the Korean music industry losing it’s creativity?”. In response to this, the writers at Candy Nine and earcandyexpress have made a second collab post together on this topic. Our first one was done for a review on SHINee’s Lucifer album.

Note: BUMP This and fangirltainment writers were going to participate but I was supposed this article out 3 months ago so I’m putting it out now.

Chocolat: The good and the bad things

I don’t post about every group that I take an interest to but it has been a while since I last posted something. Chocolat recently released their debut MV, Syndrome. The song is fine and I really like that there is a change in K-Pop because they have 3 members who are half American, half Korean. The song is fine and I do like the group however, I don’t like when it’s obvious who gets the spotlight.

Here are the videos I uploaded with the performances and pictures on here. Hope you enjoy and watch a lot so the views go up a lot!

Note: I didn’t record every performance because even though I had two memory cards, my battery was running out. There is more information on the concert below.

Jay Park: His Comeback

As you all know, I’m a Hottest Jaywalker and I just had to comment on Jay Park’s comeback. People may say it’s a debut but I think it’s a comeback for me. I am so happy to see him back on stage singing, really happy. I really love the whole album and his comeback was alright.

Hallyuwood is underway!

Spread the word. Because Hallyuwood is under construction. May I say, because it’s made by me it’s not going to be an offical site like http://www.hallyuwood.com, it will be on forumotion. If you’re not happy, go to Winglin if you like.

The only question is: Would you join and spread the word that it’s coming soon in 2011 for me?

C-Pop and J-Pop need more recongition

Like the title says. Chinese and Japanese pop has been around longer than K-Pop so why isn’t it as well known as Korean pop?

Let’s explore why.

2PM’s 2nd anniversary!

Make sure to tweet #2yearspm on Twitter ^_^
Happy 2nd anniversary, my chocolate covered shower-rubbing wild bunny-crazy guys! May you have a better year from Sep 4th 2010 to Sep 4th 2011 as you need to go backwards in your popularity, music (Without U wasn’t good) and start all over again from all the troubles from the past year.

It’s also been a year since Jay’s Myspace Incident broke off from an (and I presume) angry Wooyoung fan but let’s not get into that because I am a Hottest Jaywalker and I don’t want to create any trouble.

So the question for this post is: When did you start liking 2PM and why? And who is your favourite member?

For me, I found them in May 2009 after looking for a new group and choose them because I didn’t know anything about them. Jaebeom was my first favourite, then Nichkhun but when I started getting to like the group more, my favourite became Junsu. I love how honest and fan-serving they are; touching each other, showering together, talking about porn like it’s nothing to be afraid. I will still support them and Jay despite what terrible things have happened this year.

Think I’ll go on a spaz of pictures now.

Last four months of 2010 in K-Pop, what are we expecting?

Like the new layout for the rest of 2010? ^_^

Due to good response on last year’s post, I thought I’d do another. This time, it’s divided into Confirmed and Predictions.

Can’t believe this year will be the my 3rd year (since 2008) watching Gayo Daejun.
