My love affair with Korea started one November night in 2010. I was channel surfing and I ended up watching this 6-hour long music awards that featured artists with chinky eyes and funky outfits. Yep, MAMA 2010 baby.
I got curious when I saw a familiar face. It was the lovely Sandara Park and she wasn't anything I remembered during her stint in the Philippines. She looked... successful with her army of GIRL POWER by her side.
So I stayed glued to Star World and waited for I don't know what. What I remember is that I was amazed at the style of the artists who were apparently part of the K-POP world which I would later on be a part of... from a distance. I remember rooting for 2NE1 to get an award and getting giddy when the artist known as "Taeyang" gave the only K-POP artist I was familiar with a KISS.
(LOL at CL's epic reaction)
After MAMA 2010, I rushed to YouTube and googled (yep, you guessed it) DARAYANG. There were only a few clips, sadly but the funny thing was I got hooked into another ship, DARAGON (but that's another story).
Anyway, that's how I started falling for the craze called K-POP. Join me as I look back and forward to the things that got me hooked into this universe that is truly PINKNOMENAL!
