since i'm token yellow guy in our squadron, i get invited to VIP parties that involve other yellow people. they think i can speak the language and entertain the VIPs. the koreans invited the leadership to a Christmas party last night. i was invited to be the interpreter for a table with a slew of korean docs. the conversation was pretty shallow; they asked names and specialty. that was about it. the koreans were more interested in the crazy amount of wine and soju on the table. after the boozin' they started getting annoying. and just like all the VIP parties i've been to, it was very boring. and just like the stereotypical korean males, they went out to go drink more soju. they literally tried to drag me along. maybe it was rude to keep refusing but my idea of fun is not hanging out with old drunk docs. maybe i would have gone out if they were more my age. and definitely if they were my friends. i find it much more fun to have friends that are not associated with medicine. i dont like talking about work; i find other things more interesting... like korean pop music...
and i know you've been waiting for a very long time for my top five k-pop artists. i dont like calling it k-pop anymore because there are k-hip-hop, k-rap, etc. anywho, here are my favorite korean musicians in no particular order:
1. 성아 - 18 year old phenom, love her voice
2. 임정희 - more hip hop although she sings ballads too. her song with Big Boi is neat-o
3. Tim - smooth american-korean singer. i especially like his english Christian songs
4. 메이비 - blends jazz and pop into happy, easy to listen music
5. 박효신 - sings the sappiest songs ever but probably the best voice in korea (i agree with cuz finally)
Sorry, Wonder Girls or Girls' Generation did not make my list :P
you should install asian languages on your computer if you cant read the list.
