Wednesday, October 14, 2009 K-POP VS CANTOPOP/TAIWANESE MUSIC
5:42 AM
helloooo guys. renee here. exams are over for me, so here i am... honestly, my brains are completely burnt out now. no creative topics to talk about. but K-POP VS CANTOPOP is a subject i talk to my sister about alot. so i decided to use it. just to make it clear, we are not just a TVB centered site, we talk about generally everything in the entertainment industry, just that the focus is on HK entertainment & TVB. so here goes.
[edit] okay. i realised that i didn't include any HK artistes. oh well. never mind then. it's the battle between the koreans and taiwanese. [/edit]
WARNING: DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE HOT-HEADED AND PREFER CANTOPOP/TAIWANESE TO KOREANS.
AFTER ALL THESE TIME OBSERVING THEM, RENEE HAS CONCLUDED:
1. k-pop is better than cantopop/taiwanese music. definitely. well isn't that obvious? there are too many reasons. (i'm so organised. everything's in point form :D i bet i have OCD or something.)
> the music vids - those korean (and jap) music videos usually have a storyline. like an actual GOOD storyline. the cantopops and taiwanese? well some of them do have a storyline, but hey. they don't SHOW the storyline properly. most of the time, the camera's just on the artiste who's trying to fit the mood of the MV. worst still if the acting sucks or he/she is ugly. don't agree? go watch some nice BIG BANG MVs, try "Sunset Glow", "Lies", "Last Farewell" and "Haru Haru". those are my faves, but the rest are good too. then after that watch a few random taiwanese/HK MVs, you'll see the difference.
> looks - okay i'm biased. this is about Big Bang. they are way better looking than Show Luo. i agree there are some koreans who look... umm. haha. you get it. but most of the time, i guess it's just in their blood yeah? some comparisons: (ps: sorry for the images sizes, i can't edit now cos i'm on my laptop.)
Ya Tou of Hei Girl - Taiwan VS Kim Yoo Bin of Wonder Girls - Korea VS yoobin ah. i side with yoobin noona ^^ she's pretty and she can dance & rap well. don't know about Ya Tou though.
more of yoobin! okay. i'm crazy. i found some more nice pics of her and i just couldn't resist! xD she even looks good when she's not posing (:
Aaron Yan of Fahrenheit - Taiwan VS T.O.P (Choi Seung Hyun) of Big Bang - Korea TOP rocks. <3
> quality - if you notice, korean and jap artistes usually are of higher quality. i'm not saying all of them are, just most. look at 2NE1, their live is almost exactly like the cd. those netizens are really crictical about them as well. like Park Jae Beom if you heard. they are under loads of stress which is kinda sad ): but their performance definitely improves. their dance is just crazy. each korean band is expected to be able to sing, dance, compose, rap, cheograph and give excellent performances. i just saw a Show Luo MV on MTV yesterday night and i was comparing it with Big Bang as usual. isn't Show Luo considered the King of Dance for Taiwan or something like that? but compare again. and Show Luo fades even beside Super Junior, who's dance i mind is only mediocre.
there are others, but i have to do my screwed flash now. (: okay. this post is kinda crictical, but still. this is what i think. byeee.
